Hi,

Strange behaviour of my MBA today. When I close the lid to put it to sleep, the little white light remains on (as opposed to going to the slow on and off it does usually when sleeping) ??

What is wrong ?

Anybody has experienced this already ?

Thanks,

Walter

This happens sometimes to my macbook, what i try is just letting it alone for a while, if nothing happens, then you will have to restart the computer by pressing and holding the power button.

You are right indeed... If I leave it alone long enough (maybe a good minute), it ends up going to sleep...

How come sometimes it goes to sleep in 10 seconds, sometimes in more than 1 minute ?

because the same things happens sometimes with my MBP, i would guess that it's because sometimes there's more that needs to be stored in the RAM when it goes to sleep than other times.
