T440p shuts down after reboot

My T440p has Optimus and a Samsung SSD. I use legacy boot and ata full disk encryption.
When I use Windows 8.1 the laptop reboots without a problem. Same when the Linux installation reboots. However when any other operating system (I tried different Linux versions and OS X) reboots, it gets to the point that the thinkpad logo is displayed and then it just shuts off. Then it can normally be started again and everything works fine.
This is only a bit annoying, because I often switch operating systems and the ata full disk encryption remembers the password across reboots. If of course it shuts down instead of rebooting, I have to enter the password again every time I reboot.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem is? Is that maybe related to some change in Haswell, or some new intel bios feature? (Disabling Intel RapidStart didn't change anything)
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You're right, when I remove the ATA password it reboots fine. No idea how to make it reboot with the password, but at least that's a starting point I can google from. Thanks for your help.

MacBook Retina shuts down after a few seconds after every boot

Hi there
My retina macbook keeps shutting down after booting and rebooting by its own a minute later. No error message is displayed or anything like it, it just magically shuts down.
It had been working fine until now but it seems to be going crazy for whatever reason...
When it shuts down by itself, I can't turn it on myself. It does it on its own even if the lid is closed and then shuts down again after about 30 seconds.
This only happens when it's connected to a power source (it doesn't even start when it's not).
I have tried to reset the PRAM without success.
The only time the issue doesn't happen is when I do a Safe Boot.
Can anybody tell me what is up with my Macbook (I really need it for work AND school).
Thanks

Have you done a SMC reset?

Shut down and Reboot problems

Hi All
I hope I can find help for my problem as it is getting really frustrating. I have Lenovo X230 tablet which used to run fine until it suddenly will not shut down or reboot. The screen will turn black however the small led lights on power and other button
will remain on and the the laptop will remain like this until I press the power button to physically shut it down. When I tried to restore the system to an earlier point, the laptop will not reboot and I had to press the button again to shut it down and then
power it up. It showed after that reboot was successful but to no avail. I tried to reboot it to even an earlier point (still I had to manually reboot it) but it failed. All drivers are up to date and I always install Windows updates as soon as they are out.
Still I have to push the power button when I install new windows updates when reboot is required because the screen will go black as I already mentioned with the power still on. I do hope to get helo with this.
Thank you
Qas

Hi,
As this problem occures with no symptoms, in my opinion, it would be better to make system restore to revert your system to a former normal time point for test.
If the problem persists after system resotre successfully, it would be better to contact Lenovo support to check Hardware problem.

Mac book pro mid 2009 shuts down after a few hour then will only boot after waiting and pressing power button numerous times. I am running mountain lion with most recent updates.

Mac book pro mid 2009 shuts down after a few hour of use and then is very difficult to reboot. Sometimes I have to wait hours, sometimes I have to repeatedly press the power button and then it will slowly start a little longer each press untill it completely boots. It has done this three times know. Each time I was watching a video.

Try running the Apple Hardware Test - sounds as if you've hardware issues.

Are you getting any sort of blue screen before the PC reboots? If so, what numerical and text codes are you getting with it? (ie 0x\[zeros/letters/numbers] CAPSANDUNDERSCORES)
If the blue screen mentions a specific file (for example, “ati3duag.dll”), let us know what that is called too. (Exact spelling, please.)
Here's a reference on the sorts of things i'm asking about:
Troubleshooting Windows Stop Messages
If you're not seeing a blue screen (or if you’re just seeing a flash of a blue screen before the PC reboots), we can use the following technique to make hidden blue screens appear for us:
1) Open your system control panel (Start->Control Panels->System).
2) Select the "Advanced" tab.
3) Click the "Startup and Recover" section's "Settings" button
4) Verify that under "System Failure" the "Automatically restart" checkbox is not checked.
With those settings in place, does a blue screen appear before the PC reboots?

Mail shuts down after 3 secs on ipad 1

Can anyone help with this, my mail shuts down after approx 3 secs of opening on my ipad, have cleared all mail from desk top pc but still happens??

Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My mail shuts down after opening

my mail shuts down after 5 seconds

Have you tried closing the Mail app completely and then seeing if it works when you re-open it? From the home screen (i.e. not with Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Hi my desktop starts and then shuts down after the apple logo and an oblong box appear.thanks

hi my mac

Sounds like something is badly wrong with your system. First step would be to start up from your Mac OS X install disk, by inserting the disk and holding down 'c' at startup. Select your language, then choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. In Disk Utility, choose your hard drive and click the Repair Disk button.
If problems are repaired, try restarting and see if the problems are gone.
If problems couldn't be repaired, you can try DiskWarrior, which can sometimes repair problems that Disk Utility cannot. However, if nothing works, you probably are going to have to erase the hard drive and reinstall the system from scratch. Hopefully you have backups!
If there were no errors, or they were repaired successfully but that didn't fix the problem, then you should try booting into safe mode by holding down the shift key at startup. If that works, you may have some bad third-party software. What that might be is hard to say, though.
If nothing works, try rebooting from the Mac OS X install disk again and install Snow Leopard right on top of your current system. That shouldn't disturb your apps or data, but of course, if you don't have backups, you're in trouble if something goes wrong.

Computer shuts down after inactivity. Unable to revive.

Computer shuts down after few minutes of inactivity. Fans comes on and power light goes off. Unable to revive unless I "pull the plug" then do a normal reboot. This is something new started approx 3 months ago. I have toyed with the Energy Saver Preference, but only with the scheduling.

What iMac model is this? If it is an early iMac G5, it may be this issue:
http://www.apple.com/support/imac/repairextensionprogram/
If you have a third party USB device hooked up when your machine goes asleep (into Energy Saver), it may affect the ability of the machine to wake up since USB goes into low power mode, and the two will be confused how to handle the wake up.
If it is an iMac that is over 4 years old, then it may need a new clock battery.
Check for dust in the power port and power cable.

Ipod Shuts down after song

Hello all,
I got an iPod Nano 3d Gen for my birthday 2 months ago.
I uploaded songs on it, and a video or two.
I everything was fine untill one day the iPod had shutdown after a song.
First I thought it was just something that'd happen once, So I restarted it and selected a song.
But again, the iPod would shutdown after the song was done.
After that my iPod has not been working like it should be, always shutting down after a song was finished.
I followed the 5 steps to fix most problems (Restart, Reboot etc)
But the problem with that was that my computer did not see the iPod.
My iPod would say it was connected for about 2 seconds, and then it would shut down again.
The Computer Management window couldn't see it either.
I tried almost everything I think, and nothing worked.
So my question is this,
Does anyone have the same problem?
Or does anyone how to fix an iPod with these problems?

Your nano is pausing playback when the screen goes dark (Either when it goes dark on its own or when you click the sleep/wake button). The reason for this is that it is not detecting your headset. You may be able to hear music, but the headset jack is not inserted enough for the nano to detect that it is there (or something is blocking the connection). Here are your three options:
Insert the headset jack harder. Most folks find that this solves their problem. If you can see ANY of the silver of the plug when it is inserted, it is NOT fully inserted. You should feel and hear a click" when it is fully inserted.
Clean out the crud in the headset port. If you have tried #1 and it just won't insert all the way, it is likely that you have crud in your headset jack. Shine a light in there. The entire inside of the jack is white, so if it looks dark down at the bottom, there is probably crud down there. You can try blowing it out or using canned air. Just understand that shoving anything else in there to clean it out will be taking your warranty into your own hands! However, I have cleaned mine out using whatever was handy and small enough to fit in there and so far so good. Your results may vary!
Take it to the Apple store. If you have really tried with 1 and 2 and it is still happening, then there might just be something up with your headset port or your headset jack. If it is the headset jack, you can look closely at that and be pretty sure if that is the problem. Try another headset to make sure. If you have worked all the way through to this point and it is still happening, it is time to take it to the Apple store.

Shutting down and rebooting from xfce4 (SOLVED)

I am wanting to shut down and reboot my system via xfce4. right now the two buttons are grayed out. I tried added myself to the power group by doing
gpasswd -a username power
That didn't seem to do anything at all. On the wiki, it talks about using dbus and hal (as an alternative to doing the sudo method) but i already have dbus and hal started by default and the two buttons are still grayed out.
if there is already a message like this please guide me there. Any help would be appreciated.
CORRECTION: adding myself to the "power" group did work.

Strange - I used the sudo-hack and it worked for me. But after it stopped working, I saw the new instructions and enabled both hal and dbus and voila, everything worked.
I did not add myself to the sys-group, so it should be something else. Did you install the whole xfce4-package or did you select certain packages? check if '# /etc/rc.d/hal restart' and '# /etc/rc.d/dbus restart' change anything...
Zl.
Fyi: i installed xfce4 and xfce4-goodies. I'll try your codes now.

X shuts down and reboots

Has anyone experienced the phone shutting down and rebooting. I can have my phone sitting next to me and it will go to a black screen and the eye pops up and reboots.

Rebooting of the DX was the major point why I returned that phone.
I had my DX for 4 days and it was rebooting constantly, about 7 - 9 times a day.
VZ tech told me that it is a known issue with DX and therefore I returned it thinking to get Incredible.
However, my brother-in-law that has Incredible and his phone reboots too (though not as often as my DX). That makes me thinking what if problem is not a phone (Droid X) in particular, rather than Moto Blur skin or Android OS in general.
I was reading that rebooting may in fact be related to Advance Task Killer if it is being set to Auto-Kill mode as it could be killing some running processes which are required by OS.If Auto-Kill is disabled and applications are being killed manually it should resolve reboot problem.
DX hardware has 512 MB of RAM but in my case I was ending up with less than 50 MB (less than 10%) of RAM only after an hour of phone just sitting there without single application being touched by myself. I understand that about 200 MB is being used by OS and another 100 MB is being used by all essential subprocesses (Moto Blur) but that should leave me with 200 MB of RAM not 50. Those little pesky bloatware programs that VZ forces on you should be either disabled, uninstalled, or not being loaded into memory constantly.
In regards to controversy of needed or not Advance task killer, I am personally felling that I needed that just to kill all of the bloatware that VZ placed on that phone and which is being loaded constantly into memory. So as far as I am concern, issue with reboot is all VZ fault and that is why this is a "known issue" for them.
