hidd process is preventing my macbook pro from sleeping

Hi,


I recently installed the latest OS and since then my macbook is not sleeping. I checked the Activity Monitor and found that hidd process is preventing it from sleep. I did the SMC reset and nothing changed.

I have this exact problem after upgrade from 10.10.5 to 10.13.1.

In Terminal app, type this command: pmset -g assertions

If you get the exact results above - pid number will likely be different, and there may be cryptic messages about the bluetooth mouse - then read on.


A couple of searches led me to this conclusion:

When I go into sleep mode, iMac isn't processing the request fast enough, such that any movement of the mouse will pop my iMac right back out of sleep. UserIsActive then prevents sleeping.

Solution: Click Apple, click Sleep, and GIT YO HAND OFF OF THE MOUSE IMMEDIATELY. Does not seem to be affected by keyboard activity after selecting Sleep. I guess a performance-related issue - iMac hasn't completed some activity due to longer code path in the new improved version.


I'm happy again, no longer have to do shutdowns.

Very interesting! I am at a hospital at the moment and it only starting happening since I have been here. I might try turing off Wifi tonight and see if that stops the excessive drain.


This is what is in my logs over and over:
