Netbook Asus : won't turn off correctly after suspend/resume

Hello,
I don't know if it is Archlinux related as I did not test it recently with others distributions, but I did not have this problem one year ago with Archlinux. Probably it appeared with one of the updates, but I can't tell when or what.
I have a netbook Asus EEEPC 1005P. Everything works fine, I can turn it off correctly if I don't close the lid when on battery.
If I do close the lid when on battery, (using laptop-mode and acpi-eeepc-generic, as suggested in the wiki), the netbook goes on suspend. It is the default behavior, and nothing is wrong here. I can use it correctly when re-opening it. But then it won't shutdown correctly.
When turning it off (by pushing the power button, or launching the command "halt" or "dbus-send [blabla-freedesktop-consolekit].Stop"), the system starts stopping the daemon, and then the screen goes all fuzzy, lines and pixels fly and blink all over the screen. And it becomes impossible to turn the computer off, even when pressing the power button down for five (or more) seconds. I have to take the battery off.
Does anyone have the same problem ? (and/or know how to remove it)
Thanks a lot,
Regards,
kholo

I had a similar problem that was caused by a wireless usb card in the netbook. Maybe look at the modules loaded for wifi and unload it manually before doing a suspend and see if the problem continues.

Macbook Pro suddenly shuts off. screen goes black and won't turn off till after a few hours.

Hi everyone!
So I've had this problem from my macbook since months ago. It sometimes just shuts off by itself, the screen turning black and won't turn on until like after a few hours (sometimes a day, but sometimes you could also immediately open it just like that.)
When it shuts off and you plug the adapter it is still charging, the lights on the side of the macbook book still lights up just fine if you press the button on the side. the only problem is that it wont open until after a few minutes, hours or days (very unpredictable) (also tapping the macbook helps, I dont know if it "really" helps or not, but it works sometimes.) But when it open it will be working fine until another couple of weeks or 3 or a month (again unpredictable)
I dont know what's wrong with my laptop, please help me. It would be greatly appreciated! thank you so much in advance!

Hold the power button down for 10+ seconds. Then bring the MBP to an Apple store for an evaluation.
Ciao.

TS3274 I have a black screen with the circle downloading on the i pad but it won't turn off even after using troubleshooting tips. Does anyone know what to do ?

I have a black screen which has the downloading circle going round and round but which is otherwise frozen and won't respond to
troubleshooting suggestions for turning it off and rebooting. Any suggestions please ?

Reboot: Do this exactly: Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until you see the Apple Logo, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should restart.

3G still won't turn off after hitting home and sleep button at same time. Any other ways to try?

And when you held them neither the red Off slider nor the Apple logo appeared?
If not then your sleep button is broken, you will need to get it serviced.

IPhone won't turn off and won't sync even after I plug in my computer.

My iPhone started acting odd after my husband updated it to iOS5. It started with when I touch the apps, it responded with delay. Today, when I want to check my email. The app just simply not responding to any touch on the screen. I tried to turn off to restart, but it won't turn off. So I plug in my computer try to sync see if that can somehow makes it "budge". I successfully upload the new photos from iPhone to my MacBookPro, but after that, it won't "sync". The "sync" bottom on the itune page stay "gray". I cannot click on it. What should I do?

Why won't my Apple Wireless keyboard connect or turn off even after holding the button down?

I have installed windows 8 release preview on my mac mini through boot camp. When pressing alt to choose to boot into mac, I pressed alt too soon and so windows started to load. When it loaded I realised my keyboard was no longer working. The light just flashed. I tried holding the power button to turn it off and normally this would work fine but this time it wouldn't turn off. I took out the batteries and replaced them and it still won't turn off. And even now, it won't connect to my mac mini or my iPad either. I've read on a forum that it might reset if I take the batteries out for 30 mins so I'll try again tomorrow and then report back, but I'm quite annoyed about this!

It turns out it was faulty batteries!! Just bought an Apple battery charger so will use that from now on!

PLZ Help. PC won't turn off because of EAX Mod

Help! Ever since i installed my X-Fi Fatalty, when I go to turn my computer off, it says now ending EAXModule. After that, the computer won't turn off, but I can't do anything because it says the window station is shutting down. It is very annoying because all my settings aren't saved and I have to turn the computer off manually.
My system:
Athlon 64 4000+ OCed to 2.64 GHz
Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe
2GB Kingston Hyper X
2 MSI 7900GT's in SLI
50GB Western Digital Raptor
Creative X-Fi Fatalty
Antec 550 Watt PSU

I'm also having a similar problem now, however, if I wait a minute or two the system does shut down. I'm using an ASUS M2N32 WS Professional board, with the my X-Fi Platinum card in the second PCI-X slot; I couldn't get it to work at all in the board's one PCI slot, and the first PCI-X slot has my RAID card in it (Areca ARC-0). My GeForce 7900 GTX is in the second PCI-E slot, since it's too big to fit in the first and leave room for the RAID card.
For all that, the sound card, video, everything seems to work perfectly except for this problem with the EAX module at shutdown. It's very annoying. I've tried stopping CTDetect from running at startup, I've tried completing the registration. Nothing seems to work, but I want my Creative applications. Any ideas?

K7N2 Delta ILSR won't turn off, just restarts

K7N2 Delta ILSR won't turn off, just restarts. Every time I click on "Turn off computer" in Windows XP, it shuts down, but restarts again. Could this be OS related, or perhaps Bios related. My other machine, almost identical to this one, except that the other machine has BIOS rev 7.6 and this one 7.2.

PSUs seem to be yr favorite subject, but I'm afraid this time it's software. I experimented some more as the problem only occured after installing the Nvidia drivers. Comparing the system settings in the device manager before installing drivers and after installing them, reveils that the problem shows up when AGP HOST TO PCI BRIDGE is installed. When killing this item the PC shuts off properly. Unfortunately when turning back on, Windows automatically reinstalls the PCI bridge and I have the problem again. LOOKS LIKE A MSI SOFTWARE PROBLEM !
By the way I have a PCI graphics board and not AGP in the failing PC (the good one has AGP graphics).
Now what?

I tried to update the software for my iPhone 4S. It froze, and now won't turn off, or on, or sync. Any ideas on how to fix this?

I tried to update the software for my iPhone 4S, 16 GB to the most recent version (8.1?). I don't know what I was updating from, because I can't access that, but it was whatever was installed on it (I got it about a year ago, so probably 6.something).
It froze, and now won't turn off, or on, or sync with my macbook plus, which is what I have always sync'd it to. (I backed it up and sync'd it right before I tried to update the software.)
Since it originally froze almost 3 hours ago, it shows a white screen with the apple on it and a line underneath. When I try to sync with my laptop, it says it needs me to enter a passcode on the phone, which I can't enter because the screen is frozen. So I'm unable to access the iPhone portion of iTunes.
I have tried to turn it off, with no luck. I have tried rebooting my laptop and syncing, but I still get the same result.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I really wanted to wait to update the software, but I was having internet connectivity issues for the past 3 weeks, and Sprint suggested updating the phone's software.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi NWL1,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a great day,

My Screen Saver won't turn off on my I-Mac. Is there a way to fix this?

I have an I-Mac that every once in a while won't turn off it's screen saver when I move the mouse. I can see the mouse move and switch to the screen with the caculator, but I am unable to get the screen saver to stop and view the screen proper.
It has been updated with mavericks, but was doing this before the update. It's set to update on a weekly basis, so It should be good in that department.
so far, any suggestiosn I have been able to find haven't stopped this from happening. i'm looking for a way to exit out of the screen saver.

Have you tried going to System Preferences/Desktop & Screensaver/Screensaver, and choose "Start after Never"? That turns off the screensaver. Then, under System Preferences/Desktop & Screensaver/Desktop, choose the image you want. You can vary the sleep by playing around with System Preferences/Energy Saver, and playing around with your preferences.

My Ipad2 won't turn off. I've tried the reset method, holding both buttons down for at least 10 seconds, but this doesn't work. I'm on version 5.1.1 and all other functions work except that I cannot get onto the internet via wi-fi either. Help ??

My Ipad2 won't turn off. I have tried the reset method by holding both buttons down for at least 10 seconds, but this doesn't work. I can't get onto the internet via wi-fi either (don't have a 3G card fitted). All other functions seem to be working OK including charging. Not had this problem before, but I recently upgraded software to 5.1.1 so is there a bug in there somewhere?

Look at last link.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

N95 light won't turn off when slide open

I just find this, in rare occasions the backlight won't turn off and auto keylock not fuction(s/w) when the slide is open, but the phone is too shy to do it again after reboot, this is definitely a bug to me. It is a N95-1 with V21.0.016 f/w.
