    So if I leave my MBP idle and it won't go to sleep, all it does is it just turns off the screen. I went to the energy saver settings and switch the setting for "put the computer to sleep when it is inactive for:" ... my desired time yet it still doesn't go to sleep fully, it just turns off the display. I want it to go to sleep like as if I were to close the lid.
