Hello to all Macs
I've got a similar problem with my Mac. Some days now I am experiencing this:
I work on a fully charged battery and suddenly the computer "sleeps". Only one led light on the battery cover flashes. The computer "awakes" only if I connect the power adapter. Then the battery indicator on the right upper corner of the screen shows that the battery has to be charged, and it charges fully in a mater of minutes. This hasn't happen before and I am thinking that the battery may be drained and needs replacement. Any suggestions? I've already done the SMC reset as suggested in the previous message by Lyssa.

    Backup and restore your software via iTunes. If the problem continues, restore as a NEW device. If this solves it, that means there is some corruption in your backup file. If the problem is still there, you should take it to the Genius Bar at an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • MacBook is starting to shut down after 5 minutes.

    My MacBook has just started to shut down after 5-10 minutes. The computer still holds a charge, and the battery Percentage says that it's full, so I dont know what's going on.

    If it's under AppleCare take it in immediately.
    It is possible that a fan might not be working, and causing it to overheat & shutdown as a safety measure.
    The other reason could be RAM.
    But that's just my guess.

  • Premier shuts down after minutes

    A couple of days ago my premier pro unexpectedly started shuting down after minutes of editing. I've had it for a while now and nothing like this has ever happened. I already reinstalled it tried opening new projects but it keeps happening. The odd thing is that it doesn't happen with old projects, only those I started a couple days ago. Maybe it's because of an

  • Macbook Pro doesn't shut down after update

    After downloading the update for Safari 5.1.2, I restarted my computer to finish the installation but it stayed stuck on a grey screen with the software update bar on top. Now I can't shut down my computer. Everytime I shut it down I'm brought back to the same grey screen and nothing other than the power button will shut my macbook down.
    I'm running Lion on a Macbook pro 2.4 GHz

    How long are you waiting? I've waited as long as 3-minutes in Leopard already. I was about ready to force shutdown, but then all of a sudden, it shut down.
    If yo don't reboot that often, you may have a bunch of virtual memory swap files it's unloading. Try shutting down right after a reboot and see what happens.

  • MacBook battery 100% charged, shut down, 8 hours later found no charge.

    I fully charged my computer last night and shut it down. When I got this morning and went to turn it on, I was unable to. I plugged in the powercord and discovered that the battery had completely drained.
    Has this happened to anyone else?
    Any ideas why this happened?
    Thanks.

    As the previous poster suggested, my guess is that you didn't actually succeed in shutting it down.
    Because the MacBook has a sudden motion sensor, if you move the MacBook during the shutdown process, shutdown may not complete and the MacBook stays on.
    Best advice: when shutting down be sure shutdown is complete before moving the MacBook or closing it's lid.
    This is really important before bagging a notebook computer. It is not a pretty sight when they wake up unexpectedly in a bag with no air flow.

  • My Macbook Pro won't shut down after installing Lion.  Anyone have a suggestion to fix this?

    Just installed Lion, and it won't shutdown!
    The only way it'll shut down is if it drains the battery.
    Help!

    Lots of other people are complaining about their Macs taking long times to shutdown. Some solved it by reinstalling Lion from scratch (without using a Time Machine backup and simply copying all their files on to the new install).
    Others discovered old software that is no longer compatible with Lion (I found Mac The Ripper in mine, plus many others on day 1). I uninstalled some apps using App Cleaner (google it, it's free and it's awesome).
    I was having a hard time shutting down my macbook pro, now it's back to normal.
    Try finding applications that are not compatible with Lion. Their icons should be greyed out and with a diagonal line crossing it. Make sure you erase these applications and library related files, which is very simple if you use App Cleaner. And make sure you look into sub-folders inside the Applications folder, as I missed a couple because they were not immediately visible.
    Hope it helps. If it does, let us know.

  • Macbook Pro won't shut down after installing Yosemite

    Hi,
    I just finished installing Yosemite on my Macbook Pro. It's fairly new, the last version with a DVD drive but without retina display (I bought it in May 2014 and it's my first Mac).
    I installed Yosemite, updated all my applications from the App Store and tried to shut it down from the Finder but the screen just freezes on a black screen wth the pointer showing and then I to shut it down using the power button which I hate doing.
    I turned on FireVault after set up and that is busy encrypting could that be causing this? I did check online and it says you can put your Mac to sleep or shut it down while this is happening, but I haven't been able to. Any tips would be great.

    I had the same problem and just fixed it.
    What I did:
    - Launch Disk Utility > Select Macintosh HD > Verify Disk
    Let the Verify run until it's done
    - If you are seeing any error try the Repair disk
    It's possible you need to restart (holding cmd+r while restarting)
    - Next I did a verify disk permissions and a repair disk permissions
    - reboot
    After this the shutdown issue was gone!
    Hope this solves your problem as well.

  • Skype 7.9 shuts down after choosing the person to talk

    Hello everybody! Few days ago I got a problem. Skype on my macbook suddenly started to shut down after I choose a person from the contact list. Even if I turn it on, someone calls me, I pick the call up and the program shuts down. When choosing a person from the list of contacts - it shows a dialog window without any dialog history and also shuts down. After it I get the alarm messege from the system that skype suddenly stopped working and so on and so on... Can anyone help me to fix it?   Thank you!

    In the middle of the fault descrition I've found this: Logical CPU: 0
    Error Code: 0x02000148
    Trap Number: 133 Maybe it will help!

  • Macbook Air 11" shuts down after few minutes running

    My Macbook Air 11" from mid 2012 shuts down after few minutes running, it is a laptop with very light use. The first time this happen was trying to upgrade to OS X Mavericks, after this I read it was maybe an overheating and definitely the case was hot, after this I placed the computer right in front the AC to finish the upgrade, finally I successfully upgrade the OS but the problem continue. I bring my Mac to service and now they said it is a Video Card problem, it doesn't make to much sense for me. Can somebody let me know if this could be a Video Card problem?

    At what point is the shutdown occuring? As soon as you launch the install app?
    If so, I would trash the install app file, and re-download it.
    First, you might try running a Repair Permissions & a Verify Disk from the Recovery Partition. It is always a good idea to do this before any major software update/upgrade.

  • My macbook shuts down after 5 minutes

    My macbook shuts down after 5 - 10 minutes, and I have to restart it each time. Can anyone help me with this? I've tried resetting the PRAM, re-instatlling the OS, switching HDD's. I asked a friend of mine what it could be and he said it may possibly be the power switch button. Any answers out there?

    Have you tried resetting the System Management Controller? That is a good first step for power related issues such as this.
    If that doesn't do it, you are looking at a hardware repair.
    Best of luck.

  • MacBook OSX 10.5.5 shuts down after 30 minutes of inactivity

    If I leave my MacBook unattended, it shuts down after exactly 30 minutes. It asks me if I'm sure I want to Logout. This also happens when I've got iTunes running and listening to music but away from my computer for the 30 minutes. I've tried changing the Sleep options in Energy Saver (System Preferences) but to no avail. Not sure if this was an issue before I downloaded 10.5.5 onto this computer because I've only just begun listening to iTunes through this computer and new speakers and thus been leaving the computer unattended for this length of time. The MacBook is almost 1 year old. I've got it plugged in to power.
    I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to prevent this.

    Figured it out myself. MacBook wasn't actually shutting down, but rather logging out. Went to System Prefs,; Security; and unchecked logout after _ minutes of inactivity.

  • MacBook shuts down after 2s of sleep

    I've run out of ideas of how to fix a problem that started on the weekend.
    It's an early 2009 2GHz MacBook running 10.6.7 with 5GB of ram.
    The problem is that the laptop shuts down about 2 seconds after it goes to sleep.
    Initially it was also shutting down after a minute of being left idle but that behaviour has stopped since I repaired the hard disk last night. It does however now beep (even if muted) and display the shutdown dialogue box after being left idle for a couple of minutes (it continues to give a prompt beep every couple of minutes, again even if muted).
    Once shut down it won't respond to the power button unless I have disconnected both the power charger and battery for a few seconds. It will then restart from either the battery or power charger.
    The shut down problem is the same with or without the battery onboard. Battery count is 163 and condition is reported as "normal" in Profiler.
    I've tried starting from a fresh OS X install of both 10.6 and 10.5.6 on a USB drive but it still shuts down on sleep.
    I've reset SMC, repaired permissions, repaired the disc (there were some errors that were repaired) and now run out of things to try.
    The system.log shows the following when it shutdowns down while sleeping:
    May 30 20:50:52 loginwindow[41]: loginwindow SleepWakeCallback WILL sleep
    May 30 20:50:54 configd[14]: PMConnection mDNSResponder com.apple.powermanagement.applicationresponse.slowresponse 2047 ms
    Any ideas?

    If I recall correctly, MacBooks go into a mode of sleep called Hibernate by default.  In this mode, the contents of the memory are saved to disk when the sleep starts.  You can tell if this is happening by looking at the light on the front.  If it stays fully on for 10 seconds or so then the computer is hibernating, otherwise it is just asleep.
    Anyway, to stop rambling - maybe you should try toggling between normal sleep and hibernate to see if that makes any difference.  Follow the instructions on this page:

  • 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

  • On starting up, my macbook pro shuts down after 25 seconds of booting up.

    Hi there. On starting up, my macbook pro shuts down after 25 seconds of booting up. The time bar comes on for a while before it simply goes blank and switches off without any notification. Battery iappears charged. Could it be a virus? Help please!! O

    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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 then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Mountain Lion or Mavericks
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
