iMac doesn't wake up from deep sleep after Ventura update

[kodadda]

Signed up to say similar (but not identical) issues since 13.1. A short sleep is fine. But after a long sleep, neither my Bluetooth devices (keyboard and trackpad) nor my external display will work. I can fix the Bluetooth by disabling and re-enabling, but the external display requires a full reboot.

Same problem here on MacBookPro 16" 2019 os Ventura 13.2 (22D49). No backblaze at system. After wake up, no network services working and all usbC port freezed not responding.

Same issue occurring more and more often on my MacBook Pro 13" 2017.

At night I close the lid and go to bed, the next morning it won't wake up from sleep and often the battery is drained.

I fixed the problem unplugging all external thunderbolt connected devices, screens, ethernet adapter.

I detected specifically that my USB-C is the cause of the problem, I removed and changed and the problem has been disappeared.

I too have the same problem with waking after a deep sleep on my 2022 iMac. Only started since upgrading to Ventura. Nothing special about my Mac, no external hdd or any other devices aside from the standard BT keyboard and mouse. No amazing software installed as I don't use it for much, it's just my work from home computer so has the O365 suite on it.

Same issue in 2022 m2 macbookair with system version 13.2.1.
Everytime I just hold the fingerprinter power button for a while to force shutdown and then open mac again.

I believe all of these "deep sleep" and wake up issues are related to hibernation mode 3. I have used the sleep related setting shown below on a 2023 MBA M2 and an iMac 15,1 late 2014 and there are no such problems at all.
Originally, I found these commands here on MacRumors, but I can't remeber who posted them, so I can't give credit where it is due.

pmset -g Shows the settings you have set now.

sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0 standby 0 autopoweroff 0
sudo rm /var/vm/sleepimage or sudo rm /private/var/vm/sleepimage
--Ignore any message saying there is no such file

Create a blanked zero-byte file so the OS cannot rewrite the file:
sudo touch /var/vm/sleepimage or sudo touch /private/var/vm/sleepimage
Make file immutable:
(sudo chflags nouchg ... to revert)
sudo chflags uchg /var/vm/sleepimage
or
sudo chflags uchg /private/var/vm/sleepimage
The sleep image file is actually in /private/var/vm/ but /var/vm/ is a symbolic link to that location.

sudo pmset -a proximitywake 0
sudo pmset -b tcpkeepalive 0
--This command may produce a warning saying some features may not work properly. This is fine, it simply disables Internet access during sleep. This is the same as disabling "PowerNap" Apple's badly implemented (demented?) attempt to have apps update themselves during sleep behind the users back.
sudo pmset -a standbydelaylow 86400
sudo pmset -a standbydelayhigh 86400
sudo pmset -a highstandbythreshold 0

If necessary;
sudo pmset restoredefaults
