I have a Titanium 1GHz. Since I updated to 10.2.5 I noticed a weird behavior. My machine does not take any juice when it's asleep - the light on my power plug stays green, even if the battery should charge. It has troubles waking up, I think it gets discharged while asleep (?). After a few days of sleep I just had to reset it (some brilliant Apple engineers decided to hide a reset button under the keyboard). I didn't notice any better battery life, all I have are those charging-waking up problems. Downgrading to 10.2.4 by deleting everything is not an option. Please help!

I don't have much of a solution, but will say that I had 10.2.5 on my 17" for about two days without problem until I restarted. Then USB and power/sleep problems set in this morning. I would go about 10 minutes after restarting until my screen displayed a message saying that I had to restart. I went back to 10.2.4 until I hear of this problems being resolved. MacInTouch has a slew of reports on bugs with the update.

The solution for me was simple as I haven't had this computer for very long and just threw the restore CD into the drive and went that route. I was up and going again in about two hours.

My advice to all of my friends have been to stay away from 10.2.5 for now. Hopefully you can figure something out or find a way to get back to 10.2.4. Hope that helps.

Strange. When I had 10.2.4, my 17" automatically restarted once after I woke it from sleep. It only happened once though, and now I am using 10.2.5 with no problems...

...yet.

I had problems with my Pismo and 10.2.5 this afternoon as well.

I was doing some work then I put my PowerBook to sleep. Then it refused to wake up and it appeared to have shut down. Battery was fully charged, but the system wouldn't turn on or wake up no matter what I did. It only came back on after I hit the reset button in the back of the system.
