[QUOTE="MYmacROX, post: 976665, member: 92466"] Haven't tried this with external monitor connected, but I do have my MBP set to go to sleep if I leave the lid open for 15 minutes. (screen to dim to black after 5 minutes) Wakes up when I touch the touch pad. Just saying, you could try to set a sleep mode in "Energy Settings" and see if it works the next time you come back and wake up the MB. ...even if you just went into System Preferences and turned on the sleep mode before you walked away and turned it off when you returned. Might work. I don't know. :Smirk: [/QUOTE]
