crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:
This is the machine:
* MacBook Pro 15” Late 2013
* 2.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
* Running macOS Catalina 10.15.4
This is the problem:
* The computer is no longer able to sleep
* The display will dim, then awaken after a minute - as if the trackpad is touched
* The issue persists with/without AC Power
* Software is up to date/apps are up to date
* Went to Settings>Energy Saver>Restore Defaults - issue persists
* Opened Activity Monitor to identify processes that were preventing sleep
* Two found: hidd & powerd
* powerd was started by root
* hidd was started by _hidd
* I saved a sample of hidd if that would be helpful to anyone who thinks they can figure this out.
