This article was previously published under Q273667 SYMPTOMS When you use one of the Microsoft IntelliMouse pointing
devices listed in the "Applies to" section with a Macintosh
computer, the computer may wake from sleep mode if you move the IntelliMouse
pointing device. CAUSE This issue may occur if you connect the pointing device to a
Universal Serial Bus (USB) port that is built in to the monitor.
Some
monitors that are not manufactured by Apple recognize pointing device movement
as user interaction and wake the computer from sleep mode.RESOLUTION To resolve this issue, disconnect the pointing device from
the monitor and connect it directly to the computer.
