MBP 2018 crashed while sleeping

Hi. Just noticed that my new MacBook Pro 2018 (13 inches) rebooted while sleeping. After logging in, it said that there was a problem connected with BridgeOS.

The field "reason" was: "Sleep transition timed out after 180 seconds while calling power state change callbacks"


Is it a common issue? to be honest, I found nothing on google about it.


MacOS 10.14, 16 RAM

MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2018, 4 TBT3), macOS Mojave (10.14), 16 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD

Just to update you, after suffering crashes to black screen or reboots since I bought my MacBook Pro directly from Apple.com 10 months ago, and constantly trying new ideas from the community or waiting for bug fix updates, I finally had the logic board replaced by Apple. This fixed the issue.


I encourage anyone with ongoing crashes that they cannot fix by all the usual methods, to push for a logic board replacement under warranty.


Needless to say, in the end it was not caused by "third party drivers" or anything else, but by Apple selling a faulty product.


I hope this helps others save time, where I did not.

Same problem here. 13" MB 2015, retina screen. Error message: Sleep transition timed out after 180 seconds while calling power state change callbacks etc etc.

The reason I switched from Windows to Mac was that I was fed up with error messages and now it's starting all over again... I certainly hope Apple comes with a fix. In the meantime guess I'll have to disable Bluetooth.

I'm having the same issues, posting just in case you figure a fix (+ the header of my report for reference on a MBP 2015, 13 inch). Also having the Bluetooth issues someone mentioned.

I have the same issue as everyone else has described. I found a possible solution on other threads that involved among other things completely reinstalling the OS. I showed this to our IT team and they did the rebuild. It's been about a month and today it happened again for the first time since. Obviously that did not solve the issue. Hoping someday Apple will actually look at these unresolved issues threads and provide some input...

I have also used keeping Bluetooth off when not using it as a workaround, but that's not an acceptable solution for me in my view. I should be able to leave Bluetooth on and expect my computer to work in the morning.


It seems a bit more reliable since the last update (it used to do this almost every time the lid was closed for a few minutes, now it's just most overnights), but not fully fixed.


Is this a hardware issue with our Bluetooth modules, or something in macOS???

Has anyone managed luck talking with Apple Support directly?

Hey everyone the reason why your computer is crashing while it's sleep is going to located right in your console's crash log. What's happening is there's a job that that your CPU is supposed to be doing that maintains the system's performance and it attempts to do a lot of these things while you're not actively using the laptop. While it's sleep. The problem is that that you have Malware on your computer that also wants to work without being disturbed by the user but it has it's own agenda (crypto mining, backdoor opening, password logging, network configuring, profile creating, log hiding cough * cough*) Your system is built to be able to switch tasks when needed by other processes that are engaged with labor intensive jobs . But this only works smoothly when there's only system and legit and tested operations happening.


The engine from a 3D modeling program is probably a persistent malware task's dream dream vehicle and if you leave the keys to the car out, it's gonna take the car out for a hypothetical drive every time the computer goes to sleep. There's a ton of data collection from your computer hence the dropbox crashing because someone has to help these idiots transfer stolen the data to their safe spot while the computer is sleeping.


Obviously those are just two examples of the BS that Apple clearly knows is happening and what their computers are being used for whether you're Mojave or not. They could easily come on here and tell you how to stop the madness but they don't think you'll notice the plant telling you nothing is wrong just update your operating system and securities provisions. That and they don't care.


THE SOLUTION: After a clean re-install do not let you computer go to sleep until you knock out a couple safety moves. Disable your spotlight quickly by dropping your HD disk image into the restricted spotlight access. It's the only way for now but it's not all. Go into your Directories Utility app and restrict terminal access to by problem parent process ID's. This is only supposed to give you some more time. But if you watch your console log, after the first time your computer falls asleep a program is loaded that will make it stay awake where it's supposed t be sleep so that it can work in peace without you inturrupting it.


You can probably find the storage folder deep in hidden folder called . You'll need to run a scrip that will show you all hidden files on you home folder. Navigate to a folder called /VAR/log/ and you should see a folder yapping about some like "POWERMANAGEMENT"... In there you'll find ASL files explaining what Apple is letting people hide on your computer and not about to make them stop so don't ask....

@HamachiOtaku... thanks so much for explaining the issue. However, for those of us who aren't as tech savvy as you are, what you've explained is simply high-tech way of saying "go get professional help". To explain my statement, you said:


  1. Disable your spotlight - OK... how?
  2. By quickly by dropping your HD disk image into the restricted spotlight access - Got it. But HOW do I do it?
  3. Go into your Directories Utility app and restrict terminal access to by problem parent process ID's - Again, some detailed instructions would be very helpful.
  4. If you watch your console log, after the first time your computer falls asleep a program is loaded that will make it stay awake where it's supposed t be sleep so that it can work in peace without you inturrupting it - Thanks. Do I need to do something? Do I need to go watch my console log? If yes, HOW do I do it?
  5. You can probably find the storage folder deep in hidden folder called . You'll need to run a scrip that will show you all hidden files on you home folder. Navigate to a folder called /VAR/log/ and you should see a folder yapping about some like "POWERMANAGEMENT"... In there you'll find ASL files explaining what Apple is letting people hide on your computer and not about to make them stop so don't ask.... - Thanks again. But do I need to do anything specific here?


Again, thanks a lot for providing a solution... but for people like me, who know how to follow instructions, and want to fix this issue, any prescriptive steps would really help.


Regards / SM
