Macbook air cannot shut down after upgrading to yosemite

Hi all,
I have a problem from my macbook air purchased at 2012 and current version is Yosemite 10.10.
I upgraded my mac to Yosemite in Oct and it starts not able to restart or shut down. I try to update the software as I see in the App Store and I once again not able to restart. The only way I can do is shut down it manually by pressing the Power button and the software is not yet updated despite it restarted again.
Can anyone teach me how to handle this issue? as it is driving me crazy!!!

Hi beekatt,
Welcome to the Support Communities!  The resource below will offer some suggestions if your battery is draining quickly.  Have you tried shutting the computer down to see if you get different results?
OS X Yosemite: If your battery runs out of charge quickly
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH18599?viewlocale=en_US
If your battery on your portable Mac runs out of charge more quickly than you expected, check your battery’s condition.
Hold down the Option key and click the battery icon  in the menu bar of your Mac. 
You will see one of the following conditions:
Normal: The battery is functioning normally. 
Replace Soon: The battery is functioning normally but holds less charge than it did when it was new. 
Replace Now: The battery is functioning normally but holds significantly less charge than it could when it was new. You can continue to use your battery until you replace it without harming your Mac. 
Service Battery: Your battery is not functioning normally, and you should have your Mac serviced. 
Monitor your portable computer’s battery
If your battery won’t charge completely
If your battery’s status is Not Charging
If an X appears on the battery icon in the menu bar
I hope this information helps ....

  • 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.

  • Macbook air 2012 battery issues after upgrading to Yosemite

    Ever since upgrading to Yosemite about 2 months ago the battery on my MBA mid-2012 has been acting strangely. The battery drains considerably while sleeping with the lid closed. I don't use the laptop every day so it can often sleep for a few days. It's so bad that after 2-3 nights the battery is completely dead. I've reset the SMC, but so far it has not helped.
    Any ideas on the cause?
    Thanks,
    Brian

  • MacBook Air battery not functioning after upgrade to Yosemite

    My MacBook Air battery did not take over after the upgrade I powered off the adapter and it just died. So I had to use the power adapter to power it back on, something is wrong with the battery after the upgrade, as it was working perfectly days before on battery.

    Is one of the 'etc.' a SMC reset?

  • My new MacBook Air keeps shutting down the screen while I use it

    My new MacBook Air keeps shutting down the screen while I use it and has to be rebooted. I took it in to the Genius desk at my local store, but they couldn't find anything wrong and said that they have never seen this problem before.
    I Spoke to the IT support guy at work. He has the same problem with his new MacBook, but not with his older one. He suggested that it is a software issue with all new MacBooks and is connected to the timing of it going into sleep mode. Does anybody have a solution? Apple doesn't seem to have one.

    Try a SMC reset.

  • Macbook pro unexpectedly shut down after an usb plug in

    My macbook pro unexpectedly shut down after an usb plug in, and it won't turn back on. Please help!

    I have this problem also. The only way to get the computer to turn back on is to open the bottom and disconnect the battery then reconnect. I have found similar problems across the web, some people seem to fix the issue by resetting the SMC, but that doesn't do anything for me.

  • PC is not going to sleep or shut down after upgrade to Windows10

    Hello,I upgraded my laptop from win 8.1 to win 10.Now when I close the lid or press the power button, the computer turns the screen off, turns the WIFI off, no more hard disk activity but it is not going to sleep.Also when I shut it down it goes throught the same procedure but never turns off.To start again, I have to keep pressing the power button to turn it off, then turn it on again.I did the powercfg - energy and got this in the report, "USB Suspend:USB Device not Entering Selective Suspend"When the computer had just started, I don't get that message, it also goes to sleep and shuts down normally, while later, I get this message in the report and no longer sleeps or shuts down.Any suggestion ??Thanks 

    Hi  ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!
    I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion 15 Notebook and issues with sleep or shut down after upgrade to Windows 10. Try using the Windows Update Troubleshooting tool to fix the problem. Here is a document that shows how to update drivers that are not working correctly with Windows 10. HP has been working closely with Microsoft on the development of Windows 10. I hope this helps. Thanks.

  • Macbook Air Randomly Shutting Down

    My macbook air keeps shutting down unexpectedly when connected to the charger. I have reset the SMC but it did not help. This only happens when connected to power and when I press the power button it turns on normally and picks up from where I was.

    Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964

  • 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.

  • Macbook Pro keeps shutting down after a period of inactivity

    I don't know if my problem is related to this but after trying to set up Apple's 1Password, my laptop now shuts down after some time after I put it to sleep or even if I don't put it to sleep but don't use it for awhile.      Any ideas?

  • IBook shuts down after upgrading from 10.3.3 to 10.3.9

    Hi...I tried upgrading an old iBook G3 700 MHz from OS X 10.3.3 to 10.3.9 (combo). Now it won't finish
    starting up. I press power, I do hear the chime and get to the point where the first screen with
    the simple apple logo shows, but then after 5 seconds it shuts down again. I do hear the disk
    going briefly during this time.
    I booted with the hardware diagnostics CD that came with the machine, and all tests passed OK
    - both the quick tests and the extended tests.
    Wanted to just try reinstalling from the Panther CD set that I have, but I've found that I can't
    boot from those CDs - does the same thing, shows the apple logo, then shuts down after 5 seconds.
    I tried restarting in single user mode, it doesn't seem to get very far - I get the black screen, it
    prints about 5 lines of information, then one line saying "Using 983 buffer headers..." and then
    it shuts down. Seems like it's not getting far at all into the boot process.
    Any thought's on what to try next? Wish I could just reinstall, wiping the slate clean, but even
    that doesn't work!
    Thanks in advance for any help...

    Success! This is so bizarre...
    I have two Mac laptops, the iBook 700 MHz that's having the problem, and a newer
    PowerBook G4. A few days ago I wanted to recharge the iBook...I've been very diligent
    up to this point to use the correct charger with each laptop, the one that each came
    with.
    I got lazy this last time...plugged the charger for the newer PowerBook into the
    older iBook. Then I did the upgrade, and then I shut down the machine. It was after
    that that I had problems restarting.
    I got suspicious just now and looked at each charger. Thought they would be
    interchangeable, but on looking at them the charger for the older iBook says output
    is 24v 1.875A, while the one for the PowerBook is 24v 2.65A.
    Knowing that there's a PMU (Power Management Unit) in these machines and that it
    has settable parameters, I thought, what the heck, plug the correct charger back into
    the iBook, just to see what happens. Voila, it started up OK!!!
    What the heck ?!?!
    I'm pretty well versed in computers (work with Unix and Linux regularly, love the
    Mac OS X command line!), just don't understand everything that goes on under the
    hood with the Macs these days.
    Just to get some final closure on this problem, can anyone explain why doing what
    I did resolved the issue? I'd really like to learn from my mistakes.
    Thanks to Rhonda and S.U. who responded so quickly for my plea for help!

  • My MacBook Air Just Shut down and won't start!

    Hi Friends, my apple mac book air just shut down while I was working on it. The charger was plugged in. It is a 2009 model. I did the SMC Reset and PRAM Reset. When I press the power button it gives out a beep sound. It did start for a few minutes after the SMC Reset  and it also booted for a few seconds after PRAM Reset. but it again down down. I bought this laptop from a neighbour last year who has left the country where I am, thus, he is not in touch anymore. Please Help me in fixing it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again.
    If this does not work, see if you can connect in recovery mode, explained in this aricle:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

  • MacBook Pro 17inch shuts down after power is pressed

    Hello,
    My MBP shuts down after I press power button.
    It the boot process it goes as far as:
    chime
    grey screen
    grey screen with apple logo
    then shuts down completely  (sometimes only chime etc.).
    If it gets to the login screen, it works normally.
    I did SMC and PRAM reset. I removed battery and tried to start it on power connected.
    I reinstalled operating system and nothing seams to solve the problem.
    I have read number of posts and tried all of the suggestions.
    The most common suggested sources of the problem:
    battery
    graphics card
    hard drive
    Please let me know if someone was able to solve similar problem.
    Thanks, T

    The whole story doesn't make sense as anything but a hardware fault.
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

  • I cannot update apps after upgrading to Yosemite. Please Help!

    Hello,
    After upgrading to Yosemite, i wanted to go on to iMovie, but i have to update. So i try to update but it refuses and tells me: "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled."
    So what i understand is because i bought this mac in the US and I'm using it in the UK its not letting me update it. But what i don't understand is that i was able to upgrade to Yosemite with my mac knowing i was in the UK.
    How can i update my applications?
    Thank you for your time,
    TOAOMA

    Perform the following, stopping with the first one which works:
    1. Open the Mac App Store's Purchases tab. If you're prompted to accept it and the other iLife/iWork applications into your Apple ID, do so.
    2. Move them out of the Applications folder(they may need to be put into the Trash temporarily), and then see if you can download them for free from their individual product pages. If you're asked to buy them, see #3.
    3. Click here, contact Apple, and wait for a response.
    4. Buy them.

  • Why does my MacBook Air's shutting down slow down after the recent update?

    After the newly update OS X Update 10.9.4, the shut down of my MacBook Air slows down. It will stay several seconds more than before the update. This happens every time I try to shut down my MacBook, please meet my problem.

    A Safe Mode boot deletes some system caches that may help.
    Startup your Mac in Safe Mode
    A Safe Mode boot takes much longer than a normal boot so be patient.
    Once you are in Safe Mode, click Restart from the Apple () menu.
    Once your Mac has booted to the desktop, click Shut Down from the Apple () menu to test.
