Mac Book Pro keeps on rebooting after closing the lid I have Mac Book pro 16" 2019. I have updated to the latest mac OS Monteray. However, every time I switch it off and close the lid, it automatically reboots again. Hence for a very long time, it has never gone off, unless the lid is open. This is annoying since sometimes you might want to preserve the battery, especially if you are travelling but it won't just let you switch it off. Is this a system malfunction? Anyone who has experienced this and how did you resolve it?

Is it normal for a MacBook Air (2018) to turn on automatically when opening top? Is it normal for a MacBook Air (2018) to turn on automatically when opening top? I forget that happening, although I know it wakes from sleep. At first, I was concerned about a swollen battery, but the lid shuts normal and the computer doesn't wobble. If someone could answer this weekend, I'd be much obliged. Thanks.

MacBook Air M2 keep turning on automatically Hi there. How to avoid MBA M2 to turn on automatically? I've recently bought a MBA M2 16GB 1 TB and it is running Ventura. I want to turn in off (it did, but if I even blink and take more than some seconds to close the lid, it turns on again But when turned off, and next morning I open the lid, it turns on automatically. I've tried 2 or 3 commands using Terminal, but it didn't work - no way - it keeps turning on automatically. I want to, for example, clean the screen and the keyboard - all the experts in cleaning electronic devices say "do it with your machine turned off". Nice if I could turn it off.... Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

Yes Apple considers this a feature.

Currently there is no user way to disable the feature...
