After installing Yosemite, my macbook air crashes every time it wakes from 'longish' sleep

I installed Yosemite. All seemed to be fine. But if my MacBook Air (mid 2012) goes to sleep due to inactivity (or if I close the lid), when I then wake it, it restarts and then gives me an error message saying that something went wrong and it had to be restarted. If I choose 'Sleep' from the menu and then immediately wake it again, or close the lid and then open it within a few seconds, it's fine. So perhaps it's a longer term sleep/wake period that is the problem? Has anyone else experienced this?

MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10)

Hi guys! I have the same problem as most of you. None of the walkarounds worked for me, such as disabling wifi or turning "wake for network access" off. I have a MBP mid-2010. I must say Yosemite was working fine but last week, out of a sudden, I couldn't regulate the sound volume with F10-F12 keys anymore. I performed a PRAM reset and keys started to work again. Same day I updated Yosemite to the latest seed (10.10.2) and, since then, I have this really annoying Wake/Sleep issue. Any help would be highly appreciated! Thanks!

To add to this issue I've installed the most recent update 10.10.1 and have the same issue that others are facing, long sleep and freeze having to hard reset. I've noticed on my Macbook Air (early 2014) that everything seems to work fine just as long as I do not have my external monitor(hdmi) plugged in through the thunderbolt port. I took my laptop home for the weekend used it many times and just this morning same issue where I plugged the monitor in and opened the laptop to have it hang and then I'm forced to hold the power down and hard reset it. I've noticed a couple of times where I get the spinning pinwheel but this has happened a lot less frequently. With the prior OS I never had this issue so there is definitely something not right with the newest OS.

Hopefully a workaround can be found soon!

I'm in the same boat... I have a brand new Retina MBP. I am posting about it here:

Brand New MBP Retina - Finder crashing - Color Wheel


I should note this only occurs about 20% of the time when I'm at home, and 95% of the time when I'm out and about.


I have spent some time going through Finder/Console logs.


Dropbox indicated they were having an issue, but also said they fixed it with the latest update. I have the latest drivers for everything too.

I have mac book pro with Yosemite. Same issue as others. After a long sleep (overnight) I get a crash and have to start again. My problem was resolved by turning off wifi. This is ridiculous because it indicates the wireless driver or something associated is causing the issue. I have turned off power nap and wake up wifi for network access but this didn't fix the problem. I have to turn off wifi to avoid a restart.

Hello,

I have the samsung 850 Evo SSD on my MacBookPro 9,2.

I have TRIM enabled from the beginning (2-3 months) with cindori. After the 10.10.4 I used "sudo trimforce enable" command and everything goes fine.

From a couple of wheek (after 2-3 week installing 10.10.5) tha mac crashes after night stop (cpu panic after long sleep error).

I've tried "sudo trimforce disable".

Big error, big issue PANIC; no more system boot. No way; the disk was ok but no boot. Reinstalled 10.10 from flash card and installed 10.10.5 again.

Now I do't have trim enabled and no more morning crash.

Should I enable trim again ?

hanks
