I used to ask this, but problem still occasionally happen now is getting weird.

I will auto wake up and the mouse curser arrow will click on the nagativation icon , whereby it will
show the weather etc information on the rightside if u know what i mean

I use sleep corner to activate sleep mode.

I at first thought is it I been hack or got virus but I scan no threats.

so what happen?

I do reset , power off and turn off again , still occasionally will have this auto wake up problem
when put to sleep mode.

actually is not totally sleep, I turn off the display only the iMac still running.
 
Sleep problems are not that unusual. I have an old iMac that won't sleep it's screen at all, or stay asleep if I leave it. The usual step is to reset the SMC. For most iMacs, this involves removing all power for a minute or two, then plugging back in. See if that helps.
 
well for my case is able to sleep. i kinda noticed this track pad cursor go randomly move itself wake up the iMac from sleep will stop once i turn off the track pad , on again and able to control well the cursor and put the iMac to sleep back but it will wake up when I check sometimes the cursor move ok while I touch the track pad but sometimes as usual the cursor go move itself.

I do clean my track pad surface , done all I have done etc still...
