[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1891911, member: 396914"] Rod, the kext solution might work, except that I am USING the TB Ethernet interface, so i need that kext as it is. It might work for you, if you don't have Ethernet and only use WiFi. But I've seen posts in some of the longer threads that said the "solution" worked for a while but then the problem reappeared. Right now, what I have going is Amphetamine keeping the CPU awake and the drives awake. That seems to work better than just letting the System Preferences/Battery/Power Adapter/Prevent computer from sleeping... do the job of keeping the CPU awake. I, too, am nursing this along until Apple announces and has for sale the expected Mx 16" model. Once that is available, I'll install Windows on the MBP and give it to my granddaughter for her college work. She needs a good Windows laptop and presently has an el cheapo that won't last a year.
