Oct 17, 2014 8:01 AM in response to zinnjdby loicsans,After upgrading to Yosemite, I have exactly the same problem and have tried all the obvious, like restarting, resetting the SMC and resetting the PRAM.
Still stuck on "Connect power adapter to resume encryption." while powered and on 100% charged battery.

Oct 17, 2014 2:09 PM in response to d0ri0by NatashaBarnes,Try clicking the lock where it says "click the lock to make changes" and it will ask for the password and then it will enable you to click on the "encryption paused" and it will resume.

Oct 17, 2014 2:30 PM in response to zinnjdby caboolture,Same thing, I've got the dreaded "Connect power adapter to resume encryption" message in FileVault.
I tried all the obvious things: rebooting, resetting the SMC, zapping the PRAM, still stuck.
I then tried reinstalling OS X Yosemite: after several hours (sigh) it finished; I logged in, went to FileVault, couldn't turn off encryption but it appeared to start. It ran for 5s, then: "Connect power adapter to resume encryption".
After last year's disaster with Mail and gmail accounts, now this. Argh.

Oct 17, 2014 2:34 PM in response to zinnjdby -+[Cruz]+-,If the wire is plugged than try to unlock to make any chances and press turn off FileVault it might help

Oct 17, 2014 3:11 PM in response to -+[Cruz]+-by d0ri0,It produces the error message: "Wait until your disk is fully encrypted before turning off FileVault."

Oct 17, 2014 9:30 PM in response to zinnjdby jlingo527,My happened exactly the same thing. Stuck at Encryption Paused, and already tried all the recommendation in this post.
It's no longer moving anywhere now.

Oct 18, 2014 12:15 AM in response to zinnjdby KenJr,Fixed .. Had the same problem on my Macbook Air - plugged in the magsafe power connector .. Then the progress bar changed from 'paused' to 'encrypting'.

Oct 18, 2014 12:19 AM in response to zinnjdby Patrick123,Just a WAG, but...has anyone tried running it down to 90-95% and plugging it back in? Maybe it's looking for a 'charging' state.
-
Oct 18, 2014 12:24 AM in response to Patrick123by loicsans,Yep I did try this and replugged my power adapter at about 60%. No difference there for sure.

Oct 18, 2014 2:36 AM in response to loicsansby jlingo527,I tried to recover using Time Machine and even worse, it failed completely and now my macbook pro unusable. Searching For Disks, HDD no longer detected.
Internal Recovery is no longer an option. Now in the middle of downloading Internet Recovery(Command + option -R)
hopefully I can restore from time machine succesfully and forget FileVault

Oct 18, 2014 2:37 AM in response to Patrick123by jlingo527,I have tried this one, and still Encryption Paused! it started for like one minute and it paused again.
