Possible causes of a self-waking Mac
Having given myself an idea, I wrote the script myself, to keep putting a Mac to sleep whenever it wakes itself up:
I'm sure this is crude, and may not work on everyone's setup, but it worked on my MDD. However, if your Mac keeps waking itself up seconds or minutes after EVERY time it goes to sleep, this script won't be of much use. Paste the script into Script Editor, and save it as an application bundle, using Script Editor's "Stay Open" option, then run the app whenever you want the Mac to go to sleep. Of course, you can change the timeout to whatever you want.

Oops--don't save that script using Script Editor's "Stay Open" option, or else the app will stay running even after you click its "Cancel" button, but it won't do anything after that until you quit from it and re-launch it. Without the "Stay Open" option, it will quit if you click its "Cancel" button, and then you just have to re-launch it to activate it again, which is the desired behavior. |
