My G4 will not Shut Down, Sleep, or even Log Out.

When I select in the Apple pull down menu to shut down, sleep or even just to log out, it does nothing. If I am running iTunes it will turn off iTunes sound but that is the only reaction I get.
If any one can help, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you very much.

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
Any new devices, USB, firewire, etc.?
Any new software?
Do you have energy saver settings set to "never"?
File sharing? Internet sharing? Fax receiving? Set to "on" these can alter sleep/power habits.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303698
Can you restart?
If the above settings are off, and there are no new devices/software, I would force a restart, boot to the OS install disc, and run Disk Repair/repair on the system drive.

Itunes will not shut down on mac

My itunes will not shut down when I close it out. The itunes ball will bounce up and down and reopen itself.
I am running 10.6.8 Snow Leopard and this has started in the last 3 weeks.
I thought it was my blackberry software and had that removed. It has continued afterwards.
I do have all of my music on an external hard drive.
Thanks

Thanks wjosten I have read that and all the links in it. I did finally get it to work. I downloaded iTunes and reinstalled it. Now the one computer I wanted it to work with is OK.

Macbook Pro will not shut down/restart/sleep/log out after Mountain Lion update

Dear all,
I upgraded from Lion to Mountain Lion yesterday and since then I have encountered a few issues:
- The only way I can shut down my computer is to hold down the power button or entering commands in terminals. The commands under the Apple menu do not work at all. No window opens when I click on it.
- The about this mac, force to quit, sleep, shut down and restart button, log out do not work.
- When I restart my computer, it takes 3-4 minutes to log into the account (it used to be less than 1 minute, I have an SSD).
I have tried all of these solutions to solve the problem:
- I created another user account and I do not encounter the same problems. It logs in quickly, can shut down etc.
- I have repaired the disk and the disk authorisations using disk utility
- I have cleaned up all caches and did maintenance using OnyX
- I have cleaned up all ACL using terminal
- I have never installed Kapersky (this was the cause of the problem for some people in the past)
I am starting to be a bit short on ideas. All I know is that there is a problem with my user account. I do not want to do a clean install as I have quite a lot of work stored on this user account and preferences that took me ages to set up. If I have to start fresh I will but I would rather avoid this extreme solution.
Has anyone else experienced such an issue? If yes, how did you solve it?
Thank you very much

Had the same problem and this worked for me:
Try deleting following two items:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.db
Make sure you take a screenshot of your current dock since deleting these files will reset your dock to default.
Now open terminal and do a sudo reboot w/ your password.
This solved the problem for me.

Hi, this log has some similarities to my ipod touch which seems to be not sleeping properly due to wireless issues. Can I check - are you using a wifi connection - if so have you tried ethernet?

HP Pavilion P7-1141 will not shut down... Any thoughts?

Brand new HP Pavilion P7-1141 desktop (AMD A8-3800 quad-core CPU, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD, Radeon HD 6550D, Windows 7 64-bit) will not shut down properly regardless of what I do - I can press on/off button on the desktop, or choose "shut down" from Windows 7 menu, each time the following happens: Windows shows it's usual "shutting down" screen, then screen goes blank and monitor goes to sleep, but the desktop itself still seems to be working in some unusual mode: fans are rotating - I hear the usual quiet noise from them, the lights on the desktop are on, however, no hard drive activity at all. In this mode, the desktop can't be turned on anymore - I need to press on/off button for a few seconds to turn it off completely or unplug the power cable and plug it back and only after that it can be turned on. Windows will not show any error messages during startup, HP diagnosticks program does not find any issues, no error messages of any kind. I checked power settings in Windows, played with power settings in BIOS without any success. Am I missing something? Any ideas?
UPDATE: Sleep mode doesn't work as well. When I choose "sleep" from Windows 7 menu, exactly the same thing happens (monitor goes to sleep, fans are rotating, the lights on the desktop are on, no hard drive activity, etc). At least when I choose "restart" it restarts without any problems.

Hi:
See if (re) installing the chipset driver helps.

MacBook Pro will not shut down

A principal at my district has a MacBook Pro 15-inch Early 2008 (2.4/2X1GB/200-5400/256VRAM/AG) running OS 10.5.8 that will not shut down. When shut down is chosen, the computer restarts instead of shutting down. It does not matter how shut down is chosen, whether it is from pull down menu, keyboard command, click on shutdown in the login menu, etc. I have tried resetting PRAM, SMC, starting up from a known good system, and run diagnostics applications (which turn up no problems). The only way to get the machine to tunr off is hold the power button down until it shuts off.
The user complains it also gets very hot when he leaves it sitting open in sleep mode. I have not observed that particular symptom. It also tend to run down the battery faster than it should (battery check shows it to have 80+% of it's original capacity.) But Activity Monitor does not show any unusual activity.
Any suggestions what I can try next to figure this thing out?
Thanks.

On occassion (like tonight) my MacBook Pro will not
shut down - even when I attempt to force quit. Any
suggestions?
Happens here too, but very rarely. In my case it mostly happens late at night when OS X is supposed to run some internal maintenance jobs, maybe some of them do not allow a shutdown?
Does holding the power button down for approx. 10 seconds work? If yes, then I would not worry about it. If no, there is something seriously odd and I would report it to AppleCare.
Cheers,
Uwe

HT1766 my iPad locked up and will not shut down

my iPad has locked up and will not shut down, I have connected to lap top and it will not connect to itune

Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 second until you see the Apple logo.

IMac G5 Intel Early model 10.4.4 will not shut down

I have just replaced the internal HDD due to hardware failure in my iMac g5 (Intel early model) reinstalled the OS, applied all updates successfully. Problem is the machine WILL NOT SHUT DOWN. If I chose shut down, it will only restart! (As it does if I choose restart) Only way I can power it down, is to pull the plug or hold the power button in. It will go to sleep, after preset time on sys prefs. but will not shut down. HELP!!!!!!!!

iMac g5 (Intel early model)
There is no such Mac.
It is either an Intel Mac or a PPC Mac.
If yours is an Intel mac the correct forum is here:

MacBook Pro 2013 will not shut down without restarting.

I got a macbook pro a month ago and it will not shut down without pressing down on the power button. Using the normal Shut down options only restarts the computer. I have done all the disk utility repairs, installed new mountain lion, reset the PRAM several times, and ran software repair from doing the shutdown hold D. I also checked to see if the PRAM is good, and it is Ok in systems utilities. It will also restart when i have not touched the computer for 10 or so minutes and will go to locked user log in.
I really don't know what else to do. If you need more details let me know. Any advice?
Thanks

Thanks!
I tried this and discovered something new. I noticed that if the computer is charging while shutdown, the computer will still restart. However, if the computer is charging and you shutdown, then unplug the charger, it will remain off. It will also resume normal shut down and sleep if you shut down while unplugged, now. An idea why it will still restard while plugged in though? If not i very much appreciate your help so far!

Macbook Pro will not shut down AND other issues...

Macbook Pro will not shut down. Not using the POWER button, not using control/alt/command/esc, not using force quit, and obviously not by selecting Sleep or Shut down from the Apple menu.
Force quit will not even pop up when selected.
Top row keys do not work either, have gone into settings and switched them to F keys and back again, no luck.
iPhoto will not import photos and will not shut down, gives me a message stating it is importing photos (nothing is connected to computer though). Baffling.
HELP! Computer is only a month old
Thank you everyone xx

Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

T 61 will Not shut down

A two week old Type 6459 T61 with Vista Business will not shut down. It will sleep and hibernate but will not shutdown or restart (and I am telling it specifically to shutdown/restart). After a bit all disk activity stops and it just sits there telling me it is "shutting down" when it is not doing anything. For as long as I let it sit that is what it is telling me. I must use a hard shutdown, such as the power button (so programmed) or unplugging and yanking the battery if i actually want it to shut.
Any clues? If I shutdown before I log in then shutdown will work. But if i log out and then shut down this will not work. If i restart uing safe mode (after forcing the shut down) then the machine will shut down. Have tried all sorts of variations of shutdown.exe to no avail. Have run with and witout Aero. I am running only Lenovo/MS supplied or branded software in services and processess and disabled all else. I have disabled all startup apps via msconfig except antivirus (presently the Norton that came with the machine) and winamp agent (to maintain file associations) and Lenovo's on screen display. No help.
There are about 50 (I am not exagerating) services and processes runnning when I try to shut down that are not running in safe mode when the machine shuts down properly. I am hoping someone has a suggestion other than to disable each of the service/processes in turn and see if machine will shutdown or restart.
And I do not want to reinstall Vista. Too many commercial apps (MS office, Adobe 9 Professional etc.) that I would have to reinstall.
Have tried with and without Sidebar; no change. Have tried with and without NVidia helper apps; no change. Have not yet used Roxio (supplied by Lenovo) .
So, I hope someone "out there" can think of which processes are the "bad" ones. There seem to be many threads about Lenovo's shutting down when they should not; I have not seen other posts where people are having trouble shutting down when they want to shut down. I would like to think the problem is not with Windows Vista or with the Lenovo supplied software (then it should happen with everyone, right?) but what I would like to think may not count . . .
TIA
Bill

Hello,
Bill please activate your windows services, except may be indexing, they eat not much memory and cpu power.
Vista will need one or two weeks, after you have your programs installed to get fully performable.
I would recommend to uninstall Norton and may me Winamp, if necessary.
Antivir or AVG are much smaller and faster, but also safe.

Computer can restart but will not shut down

Hello All,
I have an iMac 17-inch Late 2006 model which is part of a computer lab which will not shut down completely. When I select shut down from the menu the computer will get to the blue screen and a spinning gear icon will appear. After a little while it will stop moving and just sits there. I have left the computer in this state over night and it does not finish shutting off. Only by holding the power button does it ever finish shutting down. It will however sleep and restart without any problems. The restart takes a little while but it does work. All of the other computers in the lab do not demonstrate this issue.
Things I have done in an attempt to fix this problem:
1. Reimaged computer from known good computer after zeroing the disk
2. Repaired disk
3. Repaired Permissions
4. Deleted login preferences from all user folders as well as library folder
5. Reset SMC and PRAM
As I had noted earlier this machine is part of a lab in which none of the other computers which were imaged from the same base image are showing this issue. If you have any ideas at all I would love to hear them.
Thank you in advance for any and all suggestions that you may have.

I was looking in the console logs earlier and they are a real pain to parse but here is a section. I told the computer to shutdown at 13:13 for sake of convenience with locating the associated entries. Sadly comparing the notes in its log against a computer sitting besides it has yielded basically identical notation. I posted what I believe to be the shutdown sequence. If you see something that I have missed let me know.

HT4528 My iPhone 4s will not shut down and wont play sound on you tube

My iPhone 4s is experiencing two issues.
1. it will not shut down, restarts on its own after a few seconds,
2. and it loses sound on videos and apps intermittently - even when sound on apps comes back, there is no sound on any you tube videos
I have tried hard reset, software upgrade, and various setting changes I read about in a thread online for the sounds issue, nothing has worked.

We tried the home sleep button several times with the same, that is, no result.
The thing with the WiFi apparently is not that uncommon a problem as the Apple web site mentionen the method I described to remedy the problem. Again, it did not fix the issue.
Thanks for the reply but ee still are at sea.
