Imac no longer going to sleeping after update on July 8, 2014

just did the latest update on this week to 10.9.4 Build 13E28 on my iMac 2.5GHz Intel Core i5 and now my iMac well not go to sleep on its own.
have already reset SMC
pulled the com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
reset PRAM
reset power setting in system Preference panel
anyone else having this issue? my system was working perfect before this update..
really don't want to wipe and rebuild my system at this point.

Test after each of the following steps that you haven’t already tried:
Step 1
Take all the steps suggested in this support article. That's the starting point for any further effort to solve the problem. Skipping any of those steps may mean that the problem won't be solved. Note that, as stated in the article, the computer  will not sleep if Internet Sharing is enabled.
Step 2
From the menu bar, select
           ▹ System Preferences ▹ Accessibility ▹ Speakable Items: Off
Step 3
Select
           ▹ System Preferences ▹ Bluetooth ▹ Advanced...
and uncheck both boxes marked
          Open Bluetooth Setup Assistant at startup if...
Step 4
Reset the SMC.
Step 5
Disconnect all wired peripherals and test. If you use a wired keyboard and/or mouse, use different ones. You must rule out the wired keyboard and mouse as possible causes of the problem.
Step 6
Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal. Don’t launch any applications at first. If sleep still doesn’t work properly, back up all data and reinstall the OS. After that, if you still have the issue, make a “Genius” appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
If sleep now works as expected, go on to the next step.
Step 7
Still in safe mode, launch the usual set of applications that are running when you have the problem, including your login items, one at a time, testing after each one. Some applications may not work; skip them. You might be able to identify the cause of the problem this way.
Step 8
If sleep is still working after you’ve launched all the usual applications, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test again. If sleep still works, you’re done, at least for the moment.
If you still have the sleep issue after restarting out of safe mode, post again.

  • After upgrade 10.6.2 computer no longer goes to sleep. system.log active.

    I can put it to sleep and it will do so (light in button slowly blinks).
    However over the energy control panel it no longer goes to sleep.
    In my system.log I see endless activity. Not sure how this will help me fix it though. Here is some of it.

  • MacBook no longer goes to sleep automatically

    I asked the question in the Mac Pro forum by mistake.. Hopefully I can get some input here?
    My MacBook no longer goes to sleep automatically after the 'Computer Sleep' period has elapsed and without me using it. I can however make the MacBook go to sleep by using a sleep command from the menu or the one on the logon screen, as well ask closing the lid.
    I have tried hard to find out what the problem is, but to no avail
    1. I have reset the NVRam
    2. I have reset the SMC
    3. I have deleted the sleepimage cache
    A. I have turned off 'Wake for Network Access'
    B. I have a Magic Mouse, but have turned off 'allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer.
    My MacBook won't sleep even if I close all programs beforehand.
    These are the products that I have an start up:
    itunes helper
    radioshift helper
    colormunki
    media (mounted volume)
    skype
    No one else uses my MacBook
    I don't have any sharing services enabled that I am aware of. In any case no one would be accessing my MacBook from any other networked machine.
    Time Machine is enabled and writes to a Netgear NV+
    I have a similar problem with my Mac Mini. Can anyone help me analyse what is happening?
    Thanks for your help

    Hi there, It's a very common problem. Some people seem to have solved the problem by checking Activity Monitor to see if there are any messages that may help identify if a piece of software is preventing the system from entering a sleep state. I did this and realised my external HD software was preventing the system from sleeping. Now my MBP 15" i5 predictably sleeps and my battery life is extended.
    There is a lot of good advice here:--->>

    My COMPUTER goes to sleep and disrupts my apple tv all the time. How can I fix this?

    That you are getting the BONG is a good sign, it's unlikely to be hardware if you are able to hear that.
    Start by running SW update. It's not that there is a specific fix, but when updating it may rewrite some system files which may get this going again purely as a side affect. Worth a go, and should not harm the system.
    Try reset the PRAM - Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    Hopefully one of these quick fixes works, otherwise we'll need to try isolate the issue next - so if still having a problem, I'd try create a new user and login as that user to see if the issue persists (which will tell us if it's system wide or user specific)

  • HP pavilion/dm4 goes to sleep after 1 minute--it's a drag!

    What ever I set, I'm working at my computer and screen always goes to sleep 1 minute after if I don't touch the keyboard.
    What am I not getting. I need at least 5 minutes or so before it should go to sleep. My computer at the office only goes to sleep after I make it.

  • Cannot longer browse the internet after updated 10.5 to 10.5.8

    cannot longer browse the internet after updated 10.5 to 10.5.8

    Did you repair permissions?
    Did you backup your data prior to installing?
    Are you using any non-Apple routers to connect to the modem?
    Is this with a notebook or a desktop Mac?
    Are there any other Macs with 10.5.8 or newer that can connect?
    Does connecting directly to the modem work via ethernet, or are you on dialup?

  • I have a Ipad 2 w/ iOS 7 it goes to sleep after about 2-3 minutes.Why?

    I have a Ipad 2 w/ iOS 7 it goes to sleep after about 2-3 minutes.Why?

    If it's been inactive and you have it set in settings to shut down after a certain period of time, it will.
    Try going into settings and changing this to your preference. If this is not the issue, adjust the settings anyways, then put back how you prefer. Sometimes  turning a setting off, then back on can help
    Aside from this you can do a restart. Press and hold the home and sleep button at same time until the apple logo appears. Or in settings > Reset> Reset all.
