Macintosh HD not powering down. Yours may be running 24 hrs a day like mine did.
This is my second attempt to inform this forum of a hidden problem I've found with my hard drive continuously spinning for no reason.
My 5 year-old domestic iMAC Macintosh HD disc drive burnt out, literally. After removing it and taking it apart, I found foam rubber had burnt over a small chip.
I replace it with an external drive (re-named it Machintosh HD) and restored my system via Time Machine.
After some time, I noticed the drive's light was on in the morning after it had not been used all night! The screen was black.
Investigation using Activity Monitor (Applications/Utilities/Application Monitor.app) showed that writes (red lines) were made to the disc before it had time to shut-down. I don't know if it's an OS 10.6 or a hard-drive specified time-out to power down, but the writes were before then, so it never shut-down.
WORD 2004
This was the first I found to cause the problem. Is it a Microsoft or Apple OS problem, I don't know. What happens is that even with no documents open, just Word open, a small amount of Data is written before the drive can power down, so it's continously spinning (I've felt the vibrations and heard it running). Thus, when I was doing a lot of Word processing a few years ago, I left it open for days-on-end without knowing the hard drive was continously running (24x7). No wonder it burnt-out.
SAFARI
This is another source of the problem that I've found. Sometime it's a problem, sometimes it's not. However, it appears that it does depend upon what activity Safari is doing, eg flashing, blinking, what-ever. Haven't tracked it down as I'm happy to just shut it down when not needed when it no longer is a problem.
Maybe this is still an issue with OS 10.7 (Lion), Microsoft Excel, Power Point 2004 or newer versions of them and Word. I don't know.
You may need to check it out so your drive doesn't prematurely pack-up like mine did.
Agree 100%! There seems to be no helpful instructions on how to manage Sharing & Permissions using the GetInfo panel. I'd like to ensure that my user files are only readable by myself. If I log in with my Admin name and password on Partition #1 and open my home folder, I find that Myself, Staff and Everyone has Read/Write privileges, by default. Is that stupid, or what?
I think so, because if I reboot as admin from Partition #2 that has its own, separate Snow Leopard system, I find to my dismay that I can still see virtually all of the contents of Partition #1, including all of my Partition #1 Admin home folder files!
Again rebooting from Partition 1, when I getinfo on my admin home folder, I could set myself to Read & Write, and set 'Staff' and 'Everyone' to "No Access".
But in the English language, "everyone" means EVERYONE, (which also includes MYSELF, right???) So, if I set Everyone to "No Access", will it remove MY read & write access? Or, If "everyone" REALLY means "everyone else", why didn't they simply call it "everyone else" in the first place?
Next question: Who is "Staff"? Does that include Everyone, or some sub-set of Everyone? Am I, as Admin, part of "Staff"? But it gets even worse: Who is "Unknown User"? I see this appear, sometimes. Really, this is enough to drive a person to consume multiple Margaritas...!!!

4s with latest software update will not power off, text will only vibrate, iPod only works with earphones. When I sync it with iTunes it works until power save mode starts, then back to not powering down, making text sounds, or playing iPod out loud.

KM3M-V system's PSU not powering down ...
Hi all,
I got a KM3M-V installed and working fine. But upon shutting down WindowsXP Pro /sp2, the mobo and CPU fan powers down, but the PSU fan remains running for hours ... and never stops.
Any idea? Thx!Quote from: Fredrik Åsenius on 19-June-05, 06:02:02
Get another PSU! I agree with Wonkanoby. The one you got is mostly meant for a Cube system of some kind, and the PSU has been discontinued, probably because it wont even power these. This is the closest to an amperes list I come:
DC +3.3V +5V -5V +12V -12V +5V-SB COM PS-ON PW-OK
OUTPUT 11.5/18.7A 16/13A 0.3A 11A 0.3A 2.0A RETURN REMOTE P.G.

As compared to newer Cubes:

Thanks Fedrik! I think I might just have to go this way ... I just want to make sure its not the mobo. But since its working fine as it is, except for the switching off issue, I might just go for a new mobo. In the meantime, I'll just power off the socket! -
Something interesting cropped up today - my iBook will not shut down using the normal method. I tried Apple>Shut Down>Shut Down, I tried Apple>Shut Down and then letting the count down expire, and lastly, when I hit the power button, I clicked on the Shut Down button there. No such luck. The only way to get it to turn off is to hold down the power button.
The only thing new is a SanDisk 1 gig flash drive "cruzer," but I was able to use the normal shut down routine last night after using the flash drive for the first time (and the flash drive has not been plugged in until after the boot up is completed). Nothing else has changed - no downloads since the last Office update about a week ago.Hi,
Welcome to the Discussions.
Resetting the PMU should take care of it.

(955X Platinum) IDE HDDs on VIA Controller not powering down
Hello,
I never had this problem on any motherboard that I've had. Currently, I have one SATA HDD connected to Intel ICH7R controller and two IDE HDDs connected to VIA IDE Controller (running in IDE mode). I have set Windows to power down the HDDs after 30 min. of inactivity (through the Screen Saver tab > Power button). SATA HDD does power down after the specified inactivity period. The two other IDE HDDs don't power down and are spinning all the time.
I always keep my PC on and would like the HDDs to power down when I'm out (sometimes days on end). I have FTP and HTTP servers set up and can access my data remotely whenever I need to and hence do not want to turn off the PC when its not in use !
Any help would be greatly appreciated.pck, the advantage of having your IDE HDD on ICH7's very own IDE because this IDE is channeled directly into the southbridge. However, the VIA RAID controller is sit on top of PCI bus, then only channeled back to the southbridge (ICH7). Somemore, PCI bus is a shared medium with other PCI devices. However, ICH7's very own IDE is dedicated.
And of course, ICH7's very own IDE can support turn off HDD.
and VIA's controller DOES support Optical drives. -
When I run 'shutdown -h now' my PC (PII 166Mhz) will shutdown but not power off. I've tried out several Linux distros on this box, including RedHat and Slackware, and Arch linux is the only distro which doesn't power off. With Slackware I had to run 'modprobe apm' but that module doesn't appear to be available for Arch (even after I added package 'apm'). Am I missing something basic here? Should 'shutdown -h now' power off the PC? In case it is of importance, GRUB config is as below:-
timeout 5
default 0
color light-blue/black light-cyan/blue
title Arch Linux [/boot/vmlinuz26]
root (hd0,2)
kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/discs/disc0/part3 roAs suggested I re-compiled the kernel with only APM support (including APM realmode-power-off), but with no effect - the PC still halts but does not power off. Should there now be a different parameter in GRUB? I tried 'modprobe apm' (which is what worked for Slackware) but I just got 'module does not exist'.

Battery drains unless shut down on top right. Just touched, not powered down
I suspect this has to do with some App that is too power hungry. My prime suspect is NEST. Any thoughts?

Hi,
This PXI-8175 in not powering up. We've checked with the facility power & it's okay & there is no issue with the supplu power. When we turn on th swith the SMPS inside the chasis is not powering up, suspecting may be the SMPS gone bad.
I'd appreciate if you can send somebody from your end to our facility to check the system as I can not send the chasis to your end as it's a custom bonded material.
Best Regards,

5th gen time capsule powers down unexpectedly
Whether or not time capsule (wi-fi) is being used it just powers down unexpectedly ( 1 to x times a day). Done a reset and made ssid visible but to no avail ( after diagnostic check help list). Also powers down when trying to make a back up to external drive. Starts up without problems when power cable is re-inserted. Doesn't get hot etc. ( thinking problem is a safeguard cut-out thing). Other than that 3 months with no probs but now this?!? Anyone with same situ? Greetz chilly
We have seen a number of reports of the Time Capsule powering down unexpectedly. You should have Apple replace the defective Time Capsule as soon as possible.

hi, i've been using archlinux for about a year and im happy with it
lately i've been trying to play some game on it,
so i installed worms on a virtualized xp machine and it played perfectly
for couple of minutes that's it, then the game started showing artifacts,
mouse went crazy and the system powered down without showing ANYTHING
like if power had dropped.
i thought that maybe it was some virtualbox issue, but
then i installed dosbox, and run the good old Command&Conquer
on it. it played flawlessly, for a couple of minutes..
then again, mouse would go crazy, X started to show numerous
gliteches everywhere and the system powered down.
no error messages, or anything of the likes.
it just powered off
the same thing has happened randomly when browsing youtube, or
using a simple visualization in amarok, even while playing videos with mplayer
it could be my video card (an ATI Radeon X1600) overheating,
but i wouldn't expect the computer to power down just like that
also often in such situations(overheating) the machine
wouldn't boot until everything cooled down, instead i can boot
my system just fine, right after it has powered down and the problem
won't show until i try to run something 'graphically' intensive
i tried to upgrade X, and switched over to an ATI opensource driver
from an old version of the propetary one, but to no avail.
thanks for any help

Tx1000 not powering up !!!
HP Tx1000 totally failed....not powering up at all anymore....Seems like the settlement between HP and NVidia only applies to US residents.......is there anything Canadian customers can do?
Unfortunately that hasn't worked. I bought a new battery just in case (which is why it's taken so long to reply). I'm scared of pressing the PMU button again. I guess I'll have to see if Apple can figure out what's wrong.
Thanks for the replay Tom.

Hangouts causes Chromium/Chrome to not shut down properly
Every time I run Chromium or Chrome after logging in, I get an error saying that the program did not shut down properly, and it asks if I would like to restore the windows that were loaded when it did not shut down properly (even though I shut the app down like normal every time). I have narrowed this down to an extension issue, and the problem only being with Hangouts. If I disable the official Hangouts plugin, the problem stops, but enabling it again will cause the problem to start again. I only get this error if I log out of my user account and log back in, or if I reboot my computer. It actually doesn't seem to cause any functional problem, it's just a bit annoying.
@gnunn thanks a lot, that is actually what I was looking for. Temp fix anyway.

This is a bug that has existed with Chrome and Arch for about the last 3 months. Not sure if the bug is within Chrome or GNOME. I just press that Restore button every time but it is damn ugly.
PS Edit: I just remembered somebody, possibly on this forum, suggesting the problem was within systemd or gdm not waiting long enough for Chrome to shut down.
I don't think that's the case here. The OP said he has the problem even when closing Chromium manually.
FWIW, I'm on Gnome 3 and I can confirm that closing the browser using Ctrl+Shift+Q works (i.e. no "restore" option afterwards, all tabs automatically restored) but shutting down Gnome without closing Chromium first causes the "restore" option to appear next time.
Still, Gnome does not close it properly, although disabling the Chrome/ium background operations will fix the problem, it won't address the problem on its own.
I wonder if this is stuff that Gnome devels need to be aware of. -
my 2014 iMac 27" powers down overnight after I installed Yosemite. It did not do so prior to the update. I just want it to sleep. How can I fix this? Thanks.
One last thought about a mac taking long to boot...try resetting the PRAM, that usually works.
1Shut down your computer completely. If you cannot access the shut down menu, you can hold the power button down until the machine shuts down. If this does not work, you can unplug it from the wall, but this is not recommended unless there is no other way to shut it down.
2Locate the "Command," "Option," "P" and "R" keys on your keyboard. The Command and Option keys are generally located directly to the left of your space bar. You will need to press these keys all at the same time, so be prepared to do so
3Turn on the iMac. Immediately press and hold down the "Command," "Option," "P" and "R" keys on your keyboard. This must be done before your computer displays the gray startup screen, otherwise it may not work.
4Continue holding the keys down until the computer restarts itself again, and you hear the startup chime. You may then release the keys, and your computer will boot up to your login screen or desktop -
I performed a software update and the system is installing an update but it has been running for over 24hrs and keeps saying "This may take a few minutes, don't shut down your computer" Can anyone help?
Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
This happens the same whenever I try to install.
To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
My plugin is still showing as out of date.
Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.
