Help! Most everytime that I close my Macbook it will not wake when I open the screen again. I have to turn it off by holding the power button for about 10 seconds. I thought maybe the battery connector was loose so I took the bottom plate off today and checked the connection. Everything seems good other than some dust that I cleaned out. I deleted a couple of big programs today after I finally got it to turn back on thinking maybe they were causing it but that didn’t help.
You should always perform an SMC and PRAM reset when experiencing this type of issue.
