Cannot shut down frozen mac mini

My mini is frozen.
Snow Leopard installed. Actually running Plex app. If I use the mac remote I can here it clicking, but nothing else works.
I have tyried holding down the power button and it appears to shut down, but when I switch back on it's just the same. I have uplugged the power lead for 30 seconds after holding the power button dow, to no avail.
How can I restart my mini anyone.
John

Hi John,
Not much you can even try, but...
Have you done a PRAM reset, CMD+Option+p+r...

In fact, do 3 in a row, takes a bit of time.
When you disconnect he power lead, where all peripherals disconnected also?

    Hi, i cannot shut down my mac, and there is several times lagging, hanging, and auto restart. what should I do ?

    Hold the power button till it shuts off (10 seconds or so)
    Then try a SMC reset:

    Follow directions for a battery you should not remove yourself.
    You can also try a pram reset, which has a link at the bottom of the page of the first link above.

  • I cannot shut down my Mac Book Pro

    Lately whenever, I try to shut down my MBP (properly from the menu) the shut down process starts, until nothing is left but the wallpaper and then... nothing. Long minutes go by and the shut down is not complete.
    I make sure to shut down all applications individually before attempting shut down of the OS.
    In the end, I just hold down the power button. But this is not a one-time occurrence. This happens repeatedly.
    I should point out that I have recently also experienced situations in which the machine heats up to 80, 90, even 100 degrees. I am not sure why. It might have something to do with the fact that I try to browse my Time Capsule and... nothing. The Finder window tells me it is trying to connect and never does. Maybe this leads to the heating. I'm not sure.
    Either way, what should I do to try and pinpoint the source of the problem?
    Thank you...

    Have a look at this article, let us know how you get on.

    Could this be a virus?

    Hold down the Power button until the computer shuts down.

    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
    See these Apple articles:
              Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
              OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              About file quarantine in OS X
    If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using Dr.Web Light from the App Store. It's free, and since it's from the App Store, it won't destabilize the system. If you prefer one of the better known commercial products, then Thomas recommends using Sophos.(Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.) If you already use Sophos, then be aware of this if you are using Mavericks: OS X Mavericks- Sophos Anti-Virus on-access scanner versions 8.0 - 9.1 may cause unexpected restarts
    From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
    The facts are:
    1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
    2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
         is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
    3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
         the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
         techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
    4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
        your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
        protection against malware.
    5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
        from which they purport to protect you.
    6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
    7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
    8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
        you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
    9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

  • Mac shuts down after 10 Min.

    My mac shuts down automatically after 10 Min., I must sign in again and the movie or whatever I just watch is still on in the back.
    How can I prefend this cutoff?
    I read all the comments, but no help. Even if I turn off the Mac or unplug it, it does not help.

    No, did not help. I take it to the store. Thanks anyway.

  • Frozen systemr won't move, cannot shut down, what can I do?

    Cursor won't move, system not responsive to keyboard commands, cannot shut down the system.

    I have been getting the gray screen and lock-up on my Air. I bought the machine in November. I took it in and got it replaced for a new one - now the new one is doing the same thing. The whole situation is obviously a bit annoying. Sure, I could go and have this one replaced as well, but to what end? Just to wind up having another Air that does the same thing. Eventually my warranty will expire and I will be stuck with a machine that freezes up on us. Not to mention the glitchy way it wakes up from sleeps then goes black for a few seconds before RE-waking up occasionally.

  • Is it possible to shut down the MAC automatically while being in sleeping mode?

    Dear all,
    on my MacPro I use a setting that after 30 minutes of inactivity, the machine moves into sleeping mode. That works well.
    Additionally I'm using a setup within the energy saving section, that the Mac should shut down every day at 10:00 pm and start or wake up every day at 07:00 am.
    But it seems, that, if the Mac is in sleeping mode at 10:00 pm, he cannot shut down.
    Does anyone has the same experience and/or knows any help?
    Thanks in advance - helee29

    Dear Martin,
    Thanks for reply.
    I checked the logs as mentioned, but honesly saying I'm not experienced enough to understand all this notices.
    What I found out in the meantime by testing (try and error) is:
    - if the Mac is in working mode (just the screensaver is working) the automatic shut down and restart to set times works perfectly.
    - if the Mac is in sleeping mode, it doesn't shut down automatically at the set time, but makes an automatic restart at the set time
    Ergo there is a problem to shut down the Mac automatically while in sleeping mode, but I still don't know what it is.

    what happens when you hold the power button for 5-10 seconds?  Will it shut off then?  Doing this will not harm your mac.

  • After latest updates, cannot shut down or restart, takes me to white screen

    I have a new MBP retina and after the latest Mountain Lion updates which I seem to remember including an iPhoto and Aperture update but also seemed to "flash" the EFI? (not sure), but there seemed to be some OS update included. Either way, my first initial issue was that when I clicked on my user account and typed in password after boot, it took me to a dark gray screen and just stayed there. I finally was able to log into guest account and switch over to my desktop then fiddled with resolution settings and background and shut down applications and rebooted. I can now log into my main user account but I cannot shut down or restart from any account. It will take me to a white/gray screen and hang there perpetually until I hold down the power button.
    I've tried resetting PRAM before and after removing all cables for 2 mins. The issue persists in both my main account and the guest account. The computer simply will not shutdown or restart as it takes me to a white screen.
    Ideas?

    Hey guys, unfortunately I've had to re-install Mountain Lion to get rid of the issue, but here's my experiences after trying many things and contacting AppleCare...
    First, I had Lion and had upgraded to ML. They had me go do the following with limited success:
    1) Reset PRAM (no effect)
    2) Recovery Disk and repair permissions (no effect)
    3) Went to system /Library and User /Library and basically we went through several attempts at removing various files from (/Library/InputMethods, /Library/LaunchAgents, /Library/LaunchDaemons") Once I had essentially removed every file and dragged it into the trash (without deleting), the issue was resolved. So, it seems to point to an application that was not fully supported or giving problems within the ML environment. The plan was to drag them one by one back and do reboot/shutdown until I could isolate the application, but rather than do that, I just did a fresh install to take out any variable that could be present from having to do a Lion/ML upgrade. I was able to put a fresh copy of ML on the computer through the Recovery partition after establishing connection to my router. Everything is working fine now.
    Anyway, hope that helps some of you. It was a frustrating experience but seems to point to application issues wih the OS and not the OS itself. I think developers are still rushing to catch up with full ML support and so you might find yourself having many new updates in drivers or applications over the next month.

  • Macbook Pro cannot shut down or restart

    My Macbook Pro cannot shut down or restart by any means. I have to forcefully shut it down by pressing the shutdown button for a few seconds.
    I was told this might be a system problem so I reinstalled the OS X system but the problem not solved.
    This is very troubesome as the system update cannot be installed (because the required restart cannot be done).
    Can anyone suggest me what I could do next?
    Thank you in advance!
    (To add on, my Apple manu seems not working as all. Not only the shut down/ restart function, but also the "About this mac" is not executing anything)
    Ning

    If this is happening now for the first time, press and hold the power button for a few seconds to force a shutdown, then press again briefly to restart.

    Can anyone explain me what it was?

    Why would you want a start button to stop something?
    Seriously, I would not routinely shut down your Mac. It is not necessary. Just set it to sleep in System Preferences > Energy Saver.
    When you are not using it, just walk away. Things will work better that way. Most of my Macs don't get shut down except while restarting them for software updates. This might be once every couple of months.

  • Can i create mcx for shut down properly mac when battery is less 5 %

    Hi hello
    Can i create mcx for shut down properly mac when battery is less 5 % ?
    Thanks for your reply

    You can create a mailing list by using the "Groups" feature of Address Book. Simply select "New Group" from the File menu. Name the group, and drag the contacts you need into the group.
    In Mail, open up Preferences (under the Mail menu), and click on "Composing". Then make sure that "When sending to a group, show all member addresses" is unchecked.
    The auto reply is a feature that is better done on your mail server, as you Mac can only send an auto reply when it is on, with the Mail application open. If you use dot Mac, you can set up a vacation responder through the web, and you can leave your computer switched off.
    If you really want to leave your Mac on when you are on holiday, you can set up a mail rule (Preferences, Rules).

  • Can't shut down my Mac desktop

    Ok, so I bought a Mac to get away from PC's, and only after two days of having it, I can't shut it down. I thought Mac's weren't supposed to have this problem. Here's the deal: I downloaded MS Office and then ran the software update. It said I had to shut down Mozilla in order to finish the install. I have tried force "quitting" Mozilla, but it won't shut down. So, I tried to stop the installation and when I force "quit" it it tells me "The Window can't be closed." So, I tried to shut down my mac and it says I have to stop the install in order to shut it down. Are you serious? I bought a Mac to get away from this problem, unfortunately I am still stuck with silly little issues like this! Please help! What do I do?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions and Mac-computing.
    First, what have you done to try and force quit Mozilla? Do you mean Firefox? Did you try control-click on the dock icon? Or from the drop-down click on force quit? Or command-option-esc?
    How did you download MS Office? From MS or another site?
    How did you try to shutdown the Mac?
