Please launch the built-in Activity Monitor application and select the Energy tab. Select

View All Processes

from the menu bar, if it's not already selected. Also select

View Columns Preventing Sleep (or Power Assertion)

Click the heading of the Preventing Sleep column to sort the process table. Which processes, if any, show Yes in that column?
