I have a late 2010 MBP running Mountain Lion paired with a Bluetooth Keyboard and Magic Mouse. When the MBP goes to sleep for a while, the keys and mouse can't wake the laptop despite the option to wake being activated in the System Preferences.

Anyone have any ideas how I can fix this? Thx.
 
Open the BT pref pane in System Prefs and select the device then go to the Advanced button at the bottom right. In that pane make sure you have checked the box by "Allow BT devices to wake this computer".

thanks for the tip but that option has already been activated so I wasn't sure what else i might've missed.
