MacBook Air M1 waking from sleep

I updated the MacBook Air M1 to the latest version of Big Sur as part of setting up the laptop.


After updating, the wake feature on opening the laptop only works intermittent. On first opening it does not wake up although the keyboard lights up. I press the on switch and nothing! If I close and open again it wakes up. This happens every time that I close the lid.


I have nothing attached to the laptop.


Any ideas how to fix this. Is it a bug or something I can address n the settings?

Hello DKGBiker,


Welcome and thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities.


We’ll be happy to lend a hand with your MacBook Air and the behavior you are seeing when waking from sleep mode.


Please ensure you are upgraded to macOS 11.1: How to update the software on your Mac


Next, check your settings please to confirm that any remote advisor/support software are disabled on your Mac.


Finally, review the following article: If your Mac won’t go to or stay in sleep



Have a wonderful day and take care!
