USB/Bluetooth devices disconnection after Mac standby

Hello world

I am facing the problem that all my usb/bluetooth devices connected to my iMac disconnect all the time I want to wake up my iMac to the fashion watch. (I have to press the power button to reactivate standby). I noticed that this only happens when my iMac is idle for more than 2 hours.

I am running Mac OS Version 10.11.2 on my 5 end of 2014 k iMac.
I use a USB 3 Hub, Logitech C920, Logitech MX Master Aukey and the Apple wireless keyboard.

I hope someone can help out me, it's so boring!

1 reset the SMC, according to > reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support

2. Open Bluetooth preferences > click on the Advanced... button > "Allow Bluetooth devices to activate this computer" is checked.

(that should allow you to turn on the computer with your Apple wireless keyboard and possibly even the mouse Logitech)

3 If your Logitech mouse is still not wake the computer Logitech dongle plugged on the USB 3.0 Hub... ?

(try moving the dongle to one of the USB ports on the back of the iMac)

    The problem is whenever I try to use my 3g phone to connect to internet, it automatically disconnects after a few moments. I searched the windows knowledge base articles and found there is a problem with the modem usb windows driver and they gave an update, but stated that the driver update is beta version.and, so it happens that I installed the update and always internet keeps disconnecting.

    They say that the problem with the driver, it's when a usb modem at a speed higher than 256 Kbps or so is plugged in, it keeps disconnecting because of a bug in the driver. Please help.all my money for the purchase of a device 3 G active will simply wasted.

  • USB 2.0 Bluetooth DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED - Equium A100-147

    Hi all!!!

    I have posted b4 about my problems of BT, but still no further forward.

    I have a 2.0 usb toggle universl BT, my last worked well until it broke.

    Since I had xp pro installed, but my USB does not recognize my rocking do not even have a pop up? any ideas.

    When I plug it 3 fast Dong

    Unplug and made 2 Dong

    I tried to install the drivers usb, but nothing.

    do my head now... Please someone help me resolve this issue!

    As far I know Equium A100-147 doesn t support the internal BT module and so if it was not equipped with the BT Toshiba stack.

    If you use an external 3rd party module BT, then you should check if there are drivers designed specially for this external BT dongle.

    Also, check if the BT dongle would be recognized in the Device Manager.
    If there is no dongle BT listed in the list of devices, then remove all controllers and hubs of UBS in the list and restart the device.
    After rebooting again Win XP should initialize the USB ports again and then you try to plug the dongle BT again.

    Good luck

  • Bluetooth devices will not connect after a long period of absence

    It started in the last 3 months, I'm not sure of that OS upgrade specifically.  I currently have Version 10.11.3.  I have a MBP late 2011.  I use a keyboard, trackpad and bluetooth magic, bought the same time as my mac.

    Whenever I come back from a business trip (usually a day or two max), my bluetooth keyboard and trackpad will not connect.  They appear in the drop down bluetooth devices, but when I select Connect, nothing happens.  I did everything the new standard batteries, SMC/PRAM reset, nothing helps.  I then manually have to pair them up with difficulty using Set Up Bluetooth Trackpad/keyboard.  It will show "found", then say could not pair.  I have the power on the devices several times his cycle, and then hold the power button 'on' to the pair.  Usually, it takes 5-10 minutes and is terribly frustrating.  Once I get the paired, as long as my stays Mac in the same room with the devices, they pair very well.  Appreciate the advice.

    99 + % of the time, there is a previous event - you indicate that this has been the case for «...» 3 months... »

    What event would it? Upgrade to El Cap? Nothing at all you can think of that has occurred "3 months ago"

  • Satellite L510 - WLAN disconnects after having ejected the disk USB

    Hey.

    I got my computer Toshiba laptop a few months and have been having this problem early. Initially, it was not the case very often and so it wasn't if big a deal, but now it's getting boring because of the frequency.

    What's happening:
    After I eject any USB connection (the most frequent with my external HARD drive and other kinds of USB keys), my wireless network connection disconnects.

    I always try to go to the tab 'network and sharing Center' and 'disable' and 'activate' the connection, but it rarely works. Most of the time, the pop-up that says something like "allowing wireless connection" doesn't go away. It sort of 'crashes', but not exactly either, as I am still able to use other parts of the laptop. I tried many things, but the ONLY fix I found is to restart the computer.

    HOWEVER, it is not a normal reboot. It takes about 7-10 minutes to restart. There is this blue screen of ms back (is that what it's called?) immediately after it restarts, but it is only there for like 3 seconds and then he asks me if I want to start windows in normal mode or safe mode.

    I would really appreciate if someone could provide any kind of fix for this.

    My laptop:
    -Satellite L510
    -Windows 7 64-bit OS
    -pentium (R) dual-core CPU T4500 2.30 GHz
    -2 GB of ram

    Hi captainmarvel,

    Just a simple question: have you tried to update the driver WLAN?
    New driver WLAN, you can find on the official website of Toshiba in order to check this!

    Well, I never really heard this about WIFI disconnects after the ejection of a USB drive. That's really curious.
    You write that you are running Windows 7 64 bit but it is preinstalled Windows 7 in Toshiba or not?

  • Impossible to disconnect itself from USB storage devices

    Original title: USB storage devices

    Once more I couldn't properly disconnect a USB storage device because Windows tells me that a program is still using the device. There is no reason for any program to access it then why on earth isn't Windows the task/program name so that I can address the issue instead of having to restart my computer? Of the many irritants "characteristic" of Windows, it is one of the most galling.

    Hello

    ·        What is present in the USB key?

    ·        Since when are you facing this problem?

    ·        Remember to make changes to the system?

    I suggest you follow the steps mentioned in the article below and check if the problem is resolved.

    If there is nothing important in the USB device, I suggest you to format the device and see if the problem still occurs.

    Note: If there is no important data in the USB then, back up data, and then format the USB.

  • What is a USB audio device and a Bluetooth HID device?

    What is the difference between a USB audio device and a Bluetooth HID device? Is there a difference? Different connection?

    My desktop computer shows the keyboard and mouse connections wireless in both places. I thought that I had to use the receiver provided with the mmouse and keyboard kit when I bought it and now I see it installed in two locations in the Device Manager. What does that mean?

    Hi jimafia,

    Let's start first of all, make sure you have software in place just in case you need more later.

    If they are the same exact drivers, it is possible that they have been installed twice, but the biggest problem is how much of usb devices you have connected?

    You can check and see when they have been installed in the properties for each driver.

  • Bluetooth device driver not found after accidental uninstall (Win7 64 bit)

    I use a Plantronics M50 bluetooth headset on my mobile, Skype etc. All troubleshooting yesterday (had a problem with the microphone volume is very low) I followed a few steps of an article if found on a Microsoft forum, telling me to uninstall the driver, as well as to restart my laptop (Win7 64 bit) would recognize and re - install the driver.

    In Device Manager, I right-click on the M50 (under audio, video and game controllers) device and chose to uninstall (as prescribed in the MS article). Here's where I shot myself in the foot; I ticked the box "Delete the driver for this device" (thinking that Win7 would get a fresh driver from Windows Update to reboot)

    After the reboot, my laptop started to reinstal the driver device, but for "Bluetooth device" reports "no driver not found"

    I myself tried in vain things:

    • tried to find the driver sur.com, but isn't available (plug-and-play)
    • installed software (incl. Plantronics Control Panel) Plantronics package
    • I tried Windows Update
    • installed Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 Driver (as advised on various sites to set "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" reports questions 'no driver found'

    At the hope that someone had a suggestion for what else to try, or maybe how to find out what that exactly that I deleted by choosing 'delete the driver for this device '.

    Thanks in advance!

    Edit:

    Just in case it helps, I noticed that the following folder is created at the time of uninstal and reinstal, containing calisto.inf, calisto. PNF and Calisto.cat

    C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\calisto.inf_amd64_neutral_2b13d4544d6cf2e6

    I decided to use Sytem Restore to restore my system to before I uninstalled the driver. There are a few downsides to this, but so far the benefits outweigh them.

  • How can I remove Bluetooth devices in Bluetooth which are no longer available to be associated with menu?

    Under MacOS 10.11.5 El Capitan, I want to delete old Bluetooth devices in the menu. Following the instructions click on the 'x' does not remove the device - it does that the Mac trial pair, which of course is no longer possible because the device is no longer available. How can I get these unnecessary items on the menu?

    Try this.

    Hold down the alt key and click on the bluetooth menu.   In the menu dropdown > select the item you want to delete > click and the ability to remove or disconnect should appear. Make your choice.

  • Bluetooth device not no projection in sound-> output

    My bluetooth (speaker) device indicates 'Connected' in the list of bluetooth devices (in preferences-> Bluetooth system).

    However, I don't see it as an option when I go to Preferences-> sound-> release system.

    Any thoughts why? This has worked in the past, but not at the moment. I have not tried to restart my machine.

    Hi JVogue,

    Looks like you are unable to select your bluetooth device paired as a source of audio output to system preferences. I would start by pairing not your device:

    Remove a device from your Mac

    If you want to remove (désapparier) a device from the list of devices on your Mac, follow these steps:

    1. Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Bluetooth.
    2. Place the pointer on the device you want to remove, and then click the button which appears next to the device name.

    Note: After you delete a Bluetooth device, you need to repeat the pairing process, if you want to use again.

    From: using a Bluetooth mouse, keyboard or trackpad with your Mac

    When that is done, start in safe mode. This will clear some system-level caches and perform a disk check and repair if necessary:

    Follow these steps to start in safe mode.

    1. Start or restart your Mac.
    2. As soon as you hear the startup tone, hold down the SHIFT key.
    3. Release the SHIFT key when you see the logo Apple appears on the screen.

    After the Apple logo appears, this may take longer than usual to reach the login screen or your office. This is because your Mac performs a check of directory of your drive to boot in safe mode.

    To leave safe mode, restart your computer without pressing any keys during startup.

    From: try safe mode if your Mac does not start-up

    Once you log in safe mode, that's all you need to do there, then restart your computer as usual using Apple > restart. Pair the device again, and then check that you can select as output. Thank you for using communities of Apple Support, all the best!
