10.10.4 Keyboard not working after sleep (mac min)i

Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.

Revert to a Previous OS X - Yosemite

I'm replying to the original post, but this is for everyone that has this keyboard problem.

Please, everyone report this to Apple via preferable the first, but at least the 2nd link (or even better BOTH). This forum is NOT communicating with Apple, so if you want relief, you need to get Apple attention.

Quick update on my experiences:

It does not seem to matter if I switch USB ports - it stays frozen.

Also it only happens when the Mac Mini has been asleep for a long time - if it goes to sleep briefly, it wakes up fine. Just when it is really snoozing does it not wake up.

Also it may be a quick solution - I suspect the first public beta of El Capitan will be out soon. It might fix it for those of us in the Beta Program. We will see. I reported it on my Feedback module in the Beta Program.

Please keep us updated on your conversation with Apple support.

I have the same issue with my previous generation Mac Mini i7.

Mine won't resume from sleep by moving the mouse / typing on the keyboard.

None of the connected USB devices work.

I can access remotely from another Mac via VNC Screen Sharing.

Once connected it wakes up, checking the System Report via the remote connection, the USB keyboard and mouse are not present.

If I plug my iPhone into the USB cable that is permanently in the Mac Mini, this isn't recognised either.

Rebooting the Mac mini restores functionality and all USB connected devices appear correctly in the System Report.

I'm not sure if I need to file this separately..

Done! Thanks.

I have this issue as well.

Same issue here, it is really annoying.

Mac Mini 2012 i5, apple wired keyboard

Same problem here. Had hoped 10.10.4 would fix it but no luck.

Having read the above posts I thought i'd try turning bluetooth off as a test, and so far after three restarts I haven't experience the issue where i normally would have without a doubt. Might be just luck but may have fixed it.... for now...

Report submitted to Apple.

I updated today and hit this issue. I was able to resolve it by installing the 10.10.4 combo update from OS X Yosemite 10.10.4 Combo Update

When installing this, I made sure my keyboard was unplugged at the time. After it completed (I did note that the combo took a lot longer to install than the, update via the app store) I plugged my keyboard back in after logging into my main account. The first USB port I tried (The one that I had unplugged from) did not work. I tried the other USB port and it started working again.

I just upgraded late 2012 mini 2.3 i7 about the same time to latest mavericks. I have the same issue, being usb port goes inactive when computer sits a while, but would work if moved to another port. Issue was with both Apple and Microsoft keyboards.

Tried common fixes with no success. It seems I have found a workaround until a fix comes out. I simply went to my sharing and shared the internet connection. I am sharing via my unused ethernet, but assume any available option would work. !!!!!!!!!!! This keeps the hard drive from sleep, but the mini uses so little power anyway it beats wearing the ports out.

I messed with the Energy Saver preferences a few days ago and it's been fixed ever since.

I changed the sleep sliders and Enabled Power Nap.

I'm not sure why but that seems to have fixed it for me.
