Sleep ...keeps waking up!

Putting iMac to Sleep has started to 'wake up' almost immediately. Do not move mouse or touch keyboard, just sitting still, it wakes up.


Thought updating to latest o/s might cure, so downloaded Ventura 13 yesterday, it hasn't!

Saying that it finally did start to work OK last night, but this morning same issue is occurring.


What is disturbing iMac so it cannot sleep? Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks for the reply.

I spoke with Apple Support, which highlighted the issue...

Had a wireless and plugged in Mouse attached - reason for this is wireless mouse needed a re-charge, forgot to take out plugged in Mouse. Once plugged in Mouse removed 'Sleep' mode activated from Apple icon, and it went to sleep without waking. Simple solution to problem.
