When i close the lid of my Macbook, it goes into sleep like it should do, but if i move the laptop, it dies, and turns back on. It seems like theres a censor thats killing the laptop when its moved.

I don't have this problem them the laptop is on.

I don't think it should be doing this, as people say they put there laptop to sleep when they're traveling through airports etc...

Thanks
 
Sorry to bump this thread, but it went to the bottom of the page without any replies.
 
There is a motion sensor built it to lock the HD if it senors a sudden fall for protection but it should do anything like that if you just move it. It has to be a pretty sharp move.

I'd call Apple if I were you.
