Hi Severin,

Some programmes perform periodic activity which (intentionally or not)
will restart your Mac's time-to-sleep timer. For example, downloading
a large file will prevent your disk from going to sleep and thus
prevent your computer from going to sleep. Continuous file sharing and
internet chat logging can have this effect also, despite the fact that
you have walked away from your computer. Severin, if you close all
your apps and leave the computer for 10 mins, does it go to sleep? I
imagine it won't, but if it DOES, then you should try to identify
which programme is the culprit.
