rMBP downloads stuff overnight

[Petulka]

Hey,
I just woke up and found out that my macbook has been downloading something for like 30 minutes 3 hours ago and battery went down from 100% to 95%, how do I stop that? Powernap is off. Not the first time it happened.

Turn it off

Disabling Power Nap on Battery should also do it.

Powernap is off.

Downloading software updates? Turn it off at Settings->AppStore. Or just turn WiFi off.

Can you look in console log at the time the DL was occurring and see if that give you any tips what it might be.

No need to be snippy.

Did you check power nap was off on battery *and* on AC power?

I leave my MacBook plugged in overnight. Great time to charge it.

Usually so do I. I'll check for the App Store updates.

And they are listening to your phone calls, reading your email, peering through your laptop camera, auditing your taxes in 3.....2.....1.....
