MacBook Pro will not shut down

A principal at my district has a MacBook Pro 15-inch Early 2008 (2.4/2X1GB/200-5400/256VRAM/AG) running OS 10.5.8 that will not shut down. When shut down is chosen, the computer restarts instead of shutting down. It does not matter how shut down is chosen, whether it is from pull down menu, keyboard command, click on shutdown in the login menu, etc. I have tried resetting PRAM, SMC, starting up from a known good system, and run diagnostics applications (which turn up no problems). The only way to get the machine to tunr off is hold the power button down until it shuts off.
The user complains it also gets very hot when he leaves it sitting open in sleep mode. I have not observed that particular symptom. It also tend to run down the battery faster than it should (battery check shows it to have 80+% of it's original capacity.) But Activity Monitor does not show any unusual activity.
Any suggestions what I can try next to figure this thing out?
Thanks.

On occassion (like tonight) my MacBook Pro will not
shut down - even when I attempt to force quit. Any
suggestions?
Happens here too, but very rarely. In my case it mostly happens late at night when OS X is supposed to run some internal maintenance jobs, maybe some of them do not allow a shutdown?
Does holding the power button down for approx. 10 seconds work? If yes, then I would not worry about it. If no, there is something seriously odd and I would report it to AppleCare.
Cheers,
Uwe

    Have you tried holding the power button down for several seconds? I would try the force quit as mentioned earlier first, or go to the Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities and try force quit there.

    My husband's macbook pro will not shut down. Tried everything.  This occurred right after installing photoshop cs5.

    Have you attempted holding down the physical power for 10 seconds.

  • Macbook Pro will not shut down AND other issues...

    Macbook Pro will not shut down. Not using the POWER button, not using control/alt/command/esc, not using force quit, and obviously not by selecting Sleep or Shut down from the Apple menu.
    Force quit will not even pop up when selected.
    Top row keys do not work either, have gone into settings and switched them to F keys and back again, no luck.
    iPhoto will not import photos and will not shut down, gives me a message stating it is importing photos (nothing is connected to computer though). Baffling.
    HELP! Computer is only a month old
    Thank you everyone xx

    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

  • MacBook Pro will not shut down properly

    MacBook Pro will not shut down properly. Gray screen appears with spinning gear but will not shut down completely.

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    If you have an optical drive, make sure there is no disc in it.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Post the messages logged during the time something abnormal was happening. That time might be before or after the boot.
    For example, if the problem is a slow startup taking three minutes, post the messages timestamped within three minutes after the boot time, not before. If the problem is a system crash or shutdown failure, post the messages from before the boot time, when the system was about to crash or was failing to shut down. In either case, please include the BOOT_TIME message at the beginning or the end of the log extract.
    Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • New Macbook Pro will not shut down.

    Hi,
    So I just got a new Macbook Pro four days ago from the Apple store and I'm already running into a little bit of trouble, that being my macbook will not shut down. Once I open the shut down window, the normal countdown that comes with it usually will not appear and I am incapable of clicking the shut down button. I have not downloaded anything onto my mac besides Microsoft Silverlight, Adobe Flashplayer, and a pdf document of my receipt from the apple store. I have burned some of my music CDs into itunes and browsed the web (nothing fishy; just some shopping, movie streaming from netflix and youtube, and reading articles online published by universities). Should I take the computer to the Apple store or is this something I can fix on my own?
    Thanks so much

    If I were you I'd take it back to the Apple store and let someone at the Genius Bar take a look at it. The worst case is you made an extra trip, but at least this way you can exchange it immediately if there's a problem. You only have a 14 day window for this, might as well take advantage of it.
    The only other thing I can suggest is to open the Force Quit option from the Apple icon in the upper left corner. See if there are any apps that show Not Responding. If there are any like that, force quit them then try to shut down.

  • MacBook Pro will not shut down correctly

    When I try to shut down my MacBook Pro, it'll shut down then start up again. However, when the login comes up after it has started up, I press "Shut Down" and it works perfectly. Why is it doing this?

  • Macbook pro will not shut down if I have opened iTunes 10.4

    I have an Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro running Mac OS X Lion.  Unfortunately if I've used iTunes at all my laptop will only shut down if I hold the power button for 10 seconds.  This occurs after every application including iTunes has been shut down.  If I have not opened iTunes during a session then the computers shuts down normally.  Can I do anything about this, is it serious, and has anyone else encountered the same problem?  Thanks for any help givien.

    I'm not entirely sure if mine does this after I only run itunes, but after normal use of my browser and email, my coumputer only shuts down if I hold the button.  I'm not quite sure what's going on, but I'll update you if I find a solution.

  • My macbook pro will not shut down

    Hello,
    please help. I have a brand new computer - MacBook pro - 2.2 GHz, Intel Core i7, Mac OS X 10.6.7. When I bought it, I followed the onscreen instructions and "transferred" my old computer, 4 year old MacBook, onto the new one (my accounts, with all the documents, preferences, etc). Now, for some time, before getting my new computer, I had been experiencing problems on my old one: namely, it was not shutting down and I had to "force" it by pressing the switch. I should have known better than transferring the old comp's settings and accounts onto the new one. I didn't and now my new computer is also not shutting down. Does anyone know how to find where the problem is and how to eliminate it? Do I have to backup all, erase, and reinstall everything or is there a less drastic way to cure my afflicted computer?
    Thank you!
    P.

    Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu and close Outlook from there.

  • My Macbook Pro will not shut down, restart or sleep, with either Apple Logo at the top or the power button.

    Hi, I have a 13" Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion, and I've had it for less than six months.
    It has worked perfectly ever since I got it and I have been completely happy with it, until today. My computer's had a variety of problems; The screen has turned black three times now in the middle of me using it (actively typing or using the touch pad). After clicking some keys or swiping the touchpad, it comes back, but I cannot figure out why this is happening. The big problem, however, is that it won't shutdown.
    I usually shut my computer down at night, and I was trying to today, but it just didn't work. I have tried shutting down by pressing the power button; no dialogue or question box comes up. I have tried shutting down from the Apple Logo at the top left of the screen; nothing happened. My computer won't sleep, restart or shutdown at all. When I close the screen, it goes darkens and lights up as usual, but it won't shut down! What's more, none of the options in the Apple Logo will work; for this post, I tried to see the About This Mac screen, and nothing happens. At best, the Rainbow Disc of Pain will appear and then just go away. The menu does pop up though when I click on it, my Wi-Fi is fine, the apps work, the keyboard's fine, the touchpad is great, everything works but that.
    I have tried Command+Tab to see open applications; I have shut them all down till only Finder is left. I have tried click Force Quit, of course, nothing happened. Nothing at all, not even a dialogue box. I have tried emptying my trash, along with all the 'sketchy' applications. I have plugged my computer in, just in case. Nothing has made any difference and I am very worried!
    I love my macbook pro, and have up to this point, but now I am extremely worried about it; all my important files are on it, and I have nothing to back up with.
    Please, please, please, please help!
    FYI; I have avast! Virus Database. I cannot imagine that that would cause a problem. Please help me!!!

    Yay! Solved my own question; just did a hard shutdown, worked like a charm! Funny, didn't before. But who am I to question salvation?

  • Macbook Pro will not shut down proper

    I am having major problems with my macbook pro. I cannot get it to go to sleep or to shut down properly. It gets stuck before it closes.
    I have done a lot of things to try and fix this problem. I have deleted everything and done a clean install. I have zapped the PRAM, reset SMC, tried logging in as another user, fixed issues in the diagnostic tool, etc. Nothing seems to help. As soon as my mac has been turned on for around half an hour or so, it will not go to sleep or shut down. Shutting down results in the white screen with the spinning icon. And it stays that way until there is no more power on the mac.
    Any suggestions?
    Looking forward to your replys.

  • Macbook pro will not shut down or restart

    I have a new 17" Macbook Pro that is 2 months old. The laptop will not restart or shut down without holding down the power button and restarting by turning the power on button. Otherwise it will sit there and the gear icon will spin and spin until it goes into sleep mode.
    Everything was working fine until now. Any help would be appreciated.
    Paul

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Boot in safe mode. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    During startup, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including your login items.
    Restart (not in safe mode) without doing anything else. Same problem now?

  • Macbook pro will not shut down, how do I get past the grey screen freeze without a hard shutdown?

    Recently upgraded from 17" Macbook Pro to 15" late 2013 Macbook Pro Retina. I have an intemittant problem, (that I also experienced with my 17" Macbook) where when I log out or try to shut down I get a grey screen, no cursor, no spinning beachball... no way to escape a blank grey screen. Seems to be happening more often.

    Reset SMC.

  • Macbook Pro will not shut down, again

    Man, this is gettting to be a real pain, I had this problem when I got this MacBook, and thought I had fixed it with a new software install. We it did not work, most of the time I have to use the on/off button to shut my laptop down. I never had this proble with my old Macbook Pro? Does anyone know why this is happening? Does anyone have a fix for this? I trashed the back up software but it did not help.
    Thanks for any help you can give,
    Chuck, macbook pro 2.2 Core 7, with 8 gig of Ram, 750 gig hard drive.

    Launch the Console application and select "system.log" from the file list. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the times of the log messages referring to boot times. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the time of the most recent boot when you had the problem. Look for error messages in the minutes before that time, and post them here. Please post only one example of each set of repeated messages.

  • Macbook Pro will not shut down/restart/sleep/log out after Mountain Lion update

    Dear all,
    I upgraded from Lion to Mountain Lion yesterday and since then I have encountered a few issues:
    - The only way I can shut down my computer is to hold down the power button or entering commands in terminals. The commands under the Apple menu do not work at all. No window opens when I click on it.
    - The about this mac, force to quit, sleep, shut down and restart button, log out do not work.
    - When I restart my computer, it takes 3-4 minutes to log into the account (it used to be less than 1 minute, I have an SSD).
    I have tried all of these solutions to solve the problem:
    - I created another user account and I do not encounter the same problems. It logs in quickly, can shut down etc.
    - I have repaired the disk and the disk authorisations using disk utility
    - I have cleaned up all caches and did maintenance using OnyX
    - I have cleaned up all ACL using terminal
    - I have never installed Kapersky (this was the cause of the problem for some people in the past)
    I am starting to be a bit short on ideas. All I know is that there is a problem with my user account. I do not want to do a clean install as I have quite a lot of work stored on this user account and preferences that took me ages to set up. If I have to start fresh I will but I would rather avoid this extreme solution.
    Has anyone else experienced such an issue? If yes, how did you solve it?
    Thank you very much

    Had the same problem and this worked for me:
    Try deleting following two items:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.db
    Make sure you take a screenshot of your current dock since deleting these files will reset your dock to default.
    Now open terminal and do a sudo reboot w/ your password.
    This solved the problem for me.
