Mac does not go to sleep when closing lid #95

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
My mac does not go to sleep when I close the lid, even though NoSleep is not 
running. Even worse: when I put my mac to sleep using cmd + alt + eject button 
and then close the lid, my mac wakes up again when I close the lid.

I guess NoSleep must be causing the problem. I deleted the app and rebooted, 
but I'm still experiencing the same issue.

I opened a thread on the Apple support forum:

Especially this post of mine will be interesting: 
https://discussions.apple.com/message/23333515#23333515

It's quite obvious now the NoSleep extension is causing the issue, even though 
I deleted the app. I deleted the app using another app called Appcleaner 
(http://www.freemacsoft.net/appcleaner/), but it seems like there's still some 
files left that I need to get rid of, right? How to get rid of these files?

Hello!

Here is a good place to ask such questions:)

The DMG package, you have previously downloaded, contains an uninstall script. 
Could you download the dmg image from the download section of this website and 
run the script. This will remove the NoSleep utility completely.

Could you also answer here with your result.

Thanks,
--Pavel.

I'm curious why you mac wakes up after forced sleep...

I actually had a couple of users with similar issues, but in the end all of 
them were not related to the NoSleep. So if after the uninstallation your 
symptoms will remain then it's probably not a nosleep issue.

Anyway, keep me in touch and we will investigate your problem further if you 
want.

--P.

I have a suggestion, what can be the root cause. What do you mean by "even 
though NoSleep is not running"?

Did you deactivated it? Is Zz icon grey or blue? Or you just clicked "Quit 
NoSleep Utility" with NoSleep active?

All right, running the nosleep uninstall script fixed the problem! Thanks a lot 
:)
