anyone have any idea why my rmbp wakes up in clamshell mode randomly? before i close the lid, i put it to sleep and then anywhere from 5-15 minutes later, it'll wake up. i then put it to sleep again and it always seems to work the second time around.

it's not a major problem...just curious to know if there's something i'm doing wrong.

thanks in advance!

i personally had the exact same problems, i turned off Powernap to try it, also try and see if it happens in safe mode.

i troubleshot it with apple and they formatted my drive and re0installed from an apple-approved (in-store) image of ML.

they also saw a few crashes in drivers under ML, specifically Wacom drivers.
 
Do you have any Bluetooth devices installed? They might be waking up your computer.

strange but since the apple store format and re-install i haven't noticed a thing! looks like its fixed...
note: powernap has been enabled this whole time and my rMBP hasn't been waking up in clamshell mode (apple used to light up)
