Q: Mac Pro won't come out of sleep mode, turn on properly
I've read over a few of the suggested responses for this problem, but mine seems to be somewhat different. My Mac Pro won't come out of sleep mode. When I click the mouse, I can hear the tower click as if it's going to wake up, but it never does. I have to soft boot it every time.
Additionally -- and this is where my question seems to differ from those who are just having the above problem -- whenever I go to turn the machine on, I press the button once and it clicks, but nothing happens. Only when I hold it down does it click again and I can hear the fan begin to whir and it lights up.
Some helpful specs I'll give out (since I admittedly know very little about computers):
OSX Version 10.8.3
Processor 2 X 2.66 Ghz 6-Core Intel Xeon
Memory 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
If there's any other info that I can give you that might be helpful, please let me know. Thanks for your help!
Mac Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)
