I have a Macbook Air (13', primo 2014) with a fresh upgrade of OS 10.11. When I am closing the lid it doesn't go to sleep. The screen is shuts off, but the computer is still (Tested it by using audio).
The problem started after trying Owly as an alternative to Caffeine. Both are apps which let you close the lid without the computer going to sleep mode. However since I installed Owly, this would always be the case, whether I am turning Owly on or off. I've uninstalled both Owly and Caffeine, and tried reinstalling them.

Pro X is a professional-strength system backup and file synchronization utility for OS X with many uses. As an example, you can use Synchronize! Pro X to backup your OS X startup disk to another hard disk, so that the backup disk is bootable.
But nothing seems to work. I've also tried booting and resetting the SMC. I've also looked in Activity Monitor which only shows hidd ( Human Interface Device Daemon) as preventing sleep mode.
Is there anyway of finding what exactly is keeping my Macbook awake, when I'm closing the lid? Uninstall 'NoSleep.' Any third-party software that doesn't install from the App Store or by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification. Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job. I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them.
You'll have to do your own research to find that information. Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it.
There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one. Back up all data before making any changes. You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation.
Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects. If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve. Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for 'utilities' such as 'AppCleaner' and the like that purport to remove software. Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a diagnostic test.
It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable.
Start up in and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this.
Ask for further instructions. Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow. The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically.
