Iphoto wont shut down
my iphoto on my macbook pro won't let me quit it. it says that i have media importing but my phone isn't connected to it. what do i do? cause i can't shut down my laptop either :/
All of my iPhoto pics have disappeared except for the last few I just uploaded. I was working with it last night and everything was normal. This is the second time this has happened in the last two years. I have a Mac OS-X 10.5.8. Your advice is much appreciated- minoo

help..my imac wont shut down from the pull down menu - just goes to blue screen ?
Hold the power button in until the iMac turns off.

Sometimes, especially after a long session using my iTunes, it continues to function but wont shut-down when I try to close it. The only way to close it is to initiate the task manager and shut it down via override.
Is there a fix needed for this problem?
Does it signify a more serious problem?
Miles Ellisi have the same problem and it is really annoying. i want apple to fix it but i have delt with it for almost two years now.

EXTERNAL HD WONT SHUT DOWN AFTER SHUTTING DOWN LOGIC ,HELP
When Im done recording in logic and after I close down the session and shut logic down. I then try to shut down my external HD and I get a message saying " LOGIC IS STILL IN USE AND EXTERNAL HD CAN NOT BE SHUT DOWN, TRY QUITTING APPLICATIONS AND THEN SHUT DOWN" Logic is already shut down and there are no other applications running and it wont let me shut down my external HD. I tried to switch HD's and it still wont shut down after I close all applications. PLEASE HELP....
Message was edited by: philip jWhen you say shut down, you mean "eject" right?
Will it, incidently, eject during a session when you haven't used Logic at all?
One thing you should make sure of with your external HD is that it is formatted correctly - it needs to "un" journalled... may not be the problem, but worth checking.
What kind of external HD is it? -

My macbook wont shut down when I close lid, how do I prevent this?
My macbook wont shut down when I close lid, how do I prevent this?
This had happened before and I seem to recall having to disable blue tooth.
Is this correct?
CharlesIt's not suppose to shut down when closing the lid, it's supposed to sleep.

Netbook NB305 Wont shut down.
I have had my net book for about 2 weeks and it now will not shut down. I can put it to sleep or hibernation but it wont shut down or restart. Cntl/alt/del wont work either, so I dont seem to be able to shut it down, either with or without the ac cord attached. I have run a virus check and there is nothing wrong.
Hi
What happens if you go to start -> shutdown? Do you get any error messages?
Maybe there are some different processes running in the OS background which prevents the OS from shutdown.
I would go to msconfig and would check the startup tab.
There you can find some apps which would be loaded while booting up the unit
Maybe its just a OS issue
The other solution proposal; try a system reinstallation. Maybe this is a option for you -
Macbook pro wont shut down without holding the power button nor cycle for updates to restart.
macbook pro wont shut down without holding the power button nor cycle for updates to restart
Sorry I said sorta wrong. I can shut down and I can update to the point of restart but it just sat for 45 minutes after an update. It goes through the update and to restart then the bars chase each other in a circle and it never restarts. So I hit the power button and go through normal reboot but loosing the update in the process. It does not matter how long I wait for a natural reboot after an update or click to restart it will chase the little bar in circles all day literally and never reboot.

My mac book pro wont shut down or let me log off
My macbook pro wont shut down or let me log off. The only thing it will do is sleep. Finder says I have programs running in the background that is causing this problem. How do I close the programs down when I can't find what is running?
command+option+esc

Try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. Then launch iPhoto.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file. -

My iphoto keeps shutting down while I'm typing a caption. Is there a way to stop that?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'

Talk about good software. Leopard is so good it wont shut down. literally. I have a new intel Mac5 about a year old.
I have to press the power button to shut down every time. I have archived and install over 3 times now. Shut down all my third party stuff. Have the latest update.
I've heard that it doesn't hurt the computer to shut it down manually with the power button until I can come up with a fix.
any suggestion would be "greatly" appreciated.
i will wash your dishes for 4 years every other weekend (twice) when the eclipse of the moon is seen by 56% of the human population under 13. thanksShutting down with the Power button is definitely not safe, it could cause damage to your hard drive. This may be why you've had to Archive and Install three times.
The most common cause of shut down problems is an application or process that refuses to quit. There can be many causes for that such as an incompatible application, a runaway process, cache or preference file corruption, log file corruption. Even an incompatible peripheral could be the cause.
I'd suggest doing a couple of things. First, try booting into safe mode and see if you are able to shut down normally. Second, create a new user account. Log out of your account and into the new one. See if you can shut down normally.
Repair your hard drive and permissions:
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger, and 4.1 for Leopard) and/or TechTool Pro (4.6.1 for Leopard) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Perform some maintenance:
Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.1 or higher are Intel Mac compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. Versions 1.5.1 or later are Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts had been significantly reduced in Tiger and Leopard.
OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
5. Carbon Copy Cloner (Donationware)
6. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
7. Intego Personal Backup (Commercial)
8. Data Backup (Commercial)
9. SilverKeeper 2.0 (Freeware)
10. MimMac (Commercial)
11. CloneTool Hatchery (Shareware)
12. Clone X (Commercial)
The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
2. Toast
3. Impression
4. arRSync
Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.
