Satellite 2710XDVD hangs at shut down
My Satellite 2710XDVD hangs at shut down, showing the 'Windows is shutting down' screen. I am running Windows 98 SE, bios 7.60. The problem started after installing a Sitecom WL-011v2 card.
When I remove the card (actually, disable it using the control panel pc card manager) Windows shuts down normally. Sitecom says it is a bios problem.
Does anyone have a solution?
I came to the conclusion that the problem is that the PC card is not shut down properly when Windows wants to shut down.
My solution is to disable the PC card when I want to shut down Windows. I made a script using AutoIt v3 to do this, just click on the script and it will disable the PC card and then shut down Windows properly.

IMac 21,5": Hangs or shuts down
Hello all!
My iMac 21,5" hangs or shuts down once in a while.
It also gets really slow, especially when saving a file in Adobe Illustrator CS6 and than switching to the finder.
I hope somebody can help me.
Many thanks.

A stale or corrupt kernel cache
A damaged OS X installation
A fault in a peripheral device, if any
Corrupt non-volatile memory (NVRAM)
An internal hardware fault (including incompatible memory)
An obscure bug in OS X
You may already have ruled out some of these.
Rule out #1 by booting in safe mode and then rebooting as usual. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
You can rule out #2 and #3 by reinstalling the OS and testing with non-essential peripherals disconnected and aftermarket expansion cards removed, if applicable. Sometimes a clean reinstallation (after erasing the startup volume) may solve a problem that isn't solved by reinstalling in place, without erasing.
Corrupt NVRAM, which rarely causes panics, can be ruled out by resetting it.
If your model has user-replaceable memory, and you've upgraded the memory modules, reinstall the original memory and see whether there's any improvement. Be careful not to touch the gold contacts. Clean them with a mild solvent such as rubbing alcohol. Aftermarket memory must exactly match the technical specifications for your model.
The Apple Hardware Test or Apple Diagnostics, though generally unreliable, will sometimes detect a fault. A negative test can't be depended on. Run the extended version of the test.
In the category of obscure bugs, reports suggest that FileVault may trigger kernel traps under some unknown conditions. Most, though not all, of these reports seem to involve booting from an aftermarket SSD. If those conditions apply to you, try deactivating FileVault.
Connecting more than one display is another reported trigger for OS X bugs.
If your system is not fully up to date, running Software Update might get you a bug fix.
In rare cases, a malformed network packet from a defective router or other network device can cause panics. Such packets could also be sent deliberately by a skillful attacker. This possibility is something to consider if you run a public server that might be the target of such an attack.
If none of the above applies, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested. You may have to leave it there for several days. There isn't much point in doing this unless you can reproduce the panic, or if you can't, it happens often enough that it's likely to be repeated at the store. Otherwise you may be told that nothing is wrong.
Print the first page of the panic report and bring it with you.

Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

Hang at Shut Down... When exactly are drives safely unmounted?
My Mac often hangs at shut down (like many others). I typically get all icons, dock, and menu bar removed and am left with the desktop picture, or sometimes I'll get to the blue screen (after the desktop picture has gone) and get the circle made of straight lines that just continually loop.
My question is: Have the drives unmounted and therefore aren't potentially damaged due to the power being forcefully cut off (holding the power button), or are they still mounted and therefore possibly damaged requiring (to be safe) another round of DiskWarrior magic?
I'm getting tired of spending all of my time running DiskWarrior. Are these fixes necessary?
any thoughts are welcome and appreciated!Hi! I'd be concerned because the last command that the OS gives at shutdown is for the drive heads to "park" after which the power to them is turned off. If they are not "parking" the heads properly it could cause problems. I'd investigate unhooking the external attached devices to see if any of them are hanging the shutdown but also if you have several volumes or drives attached to the computer if often takes a seemingly long time for the OS to complete the disk chores at shutdown. Have you waited at least 5 min+ to see if it will shutdown? Also if Diskwarrior shows anything in "RED" then the directories definitely are having problems and should be corrected. Often a directory will suffer damage but continue to mount and function until the corruption finally gets so bad it crashes. Regular use of DW usually keeps them in good shape. Tom

Hello, maybe someone know what could be with my iMac 21.5-inch: 3.06GHz Intel Core i3,(OS X 10.6.6) Everything was working fine for about a couple weeks, but now it hangs at shut down. I left for a bit thinking it would eventually shut down, but came back an hour later to find it still spinning on the grey screen,I left during the night, but nothing has changed still spinning on the grey screen. The only way to shut it down was to hold the power button.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks!I don't know if you have managed to resolve this yet? Have you found posts like this one;
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2784084?start=0&tstart=0
Like the person posting in that thread I have found that doing a disk repair has fixed the problem that was preventing my 2011 imac from shutting down.
To do the disk repair hold down the md and R keys whilst the machine is booting. You should find yourself in the utilities app with an option at the bottom to run the disk utility and from there you can run a repair on your boot disk. -
Satellite L40 won't shut down with power connected, and won't go in standby
Hi everybody. I hope someone can help me. Basically, there are two problems: one with shutting the laptop (Satellite L40-17U (Vista 32-bit Home Premium SP1) ) down when the power is connected, and one with closing the lid and putting it to sleep.
1. Since a few weeks, it suddenly doesn't want to shut down, whenever the power is connected. When it is on battery, it will shut down. When the power is connected and I try shutting it down, it seems like it shuts down (all activity ceases and the LEDs go off) for about 1 or 2 seconds, and then it goes back on.
2. When I close the lid (all settings in Vista are set to put the laptop in 'sleep' status when the lid is closed) the laptop goes into a state from which it can only be recovered by shutting it down by pressing the on/off button for about 10 seconds to completely shut it down. When closing the lid, only the battery LED keeps blinking orange (the way it should be), but apparently the laptop keeps consuming power, because when I reboot it later (first having to shut it down as described above) the battery tends to be quite a emptier than it was before rebooting it (like going from 100% to 65% in 30 minutes, while being in 'sleep' state). Also, when I open the lid, the other LEDs do go on again (green), but nothing happens.
After rebooting by first pressing the on/off button for 10 seconds to shut it down, I frequently get a message that Windows could not be started, and have to run System Repair.
I've just done a completely clean installation with the product recovery CD (didn't install SP1 yet), upgraded the BIOS to v1.90, but the problem remains.
I'm afraid my only option will be to bring it away for a warranty repair, but knowing that these repairs can take weeks, I'd prefer to try a solution anyone here could recommend me first. If you have any ideas, please let me know.
Thanks,
Daniel BreslauerHi guys
Never had such issue on my notebook but regarding to another users here in the forum the BIOS might help to solve such strange notebook behavior
To be honest the shut down issue is not known to me I noticed an standby issue on my notebook but the BIOS update helped.
Therefore I recommend updating the BIOS firstly.
If the issue will still appear, then the ASP should take a look into the notebook.
Good luck -
Satellite P10 - start up/shut down are not working
I hope someone can help me. My Satellite P10 is having problems starting and shutting down.
When it starts up, it goes to a black screen with white wording, asking if I want to start windows normally, or in safe mode etc - it won't let me start it normally so I choose the option 'last good start up files' (or similar wording).
The pc then carries on starting up. I did a system restore but it's made no difference. Once it's started up, it's a lottery whether it's going to be ok, or whether it's in the process of crashing.
To shut down, I've got to push the off button, there's no other way it will shut down.
I've run avg, spybot, lavasoft adaware, xsoftspy, registry mechanic, spywareblaster etc but there doesn't seem to be anything 'wrong'.
The only thing I've installed recently is the new avg 7.5 and legacy family tree software - I downloaded both programmes from the manufacturers sites. Avg is free, although I might just have visited a crack site for the code for legacy :)
I would really appreciate it if anyone is kind enough to give me some advice :)Hi Joao
I have had a bit of luck so far - I downloaded a little executable which checks for trojans - I had been infected by ntrootkit. I managed to get rid of it (switch off system restore, run security software, edit registry & reboot) which has in turn sorted out the start up and shut down problems.
However, I'm still getting problems - when I start up, it's in the lap of the Gods whether I need to reboot before I can open my broadband software.
Also, when it's playing up like that, I get a 'beep' when I try to stop processes through task manager. I've got a horrible feeling that it's the motherboard. Once I've rebooted, it's fine again.
This is driving me nuts... if anyone has any ideas on this latest development, I'd be grateful!! -
Windows7 hanging when shutting down applying updates
Whenever I shut down or reboot Windows7 I get a message that Windows is applying update 9 of 13, but the "update" never gets "applied" and Windows7 just hangs supposedly trying to apply it. Yet when I subsequently boot into Windows7
and look a Windows Update there are no important updates available, much less being applied.
Something is messed up. How do I fix this problem so that Windows7 does not attempt to apply a mythical 9 of 13 update, which does not exist, when I shut down, and hang my Windows& shutdown or rebootDownload appropriate system readiness tool and run it
http://support.microsoft.com/kB/947821
If the updates that are failing to install are dot net based then you may need to run dot net repair tool.
https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=30135
Note this is not recommended but is an option:
If you are having problem with single update for example you may right click (in windows updates screen) on it and chose to hide it.
This way at least you will allow other updates to install properly. -
ITunes causing hang on shut down. Help!
iTunes 11 has been causing my Macbook Pro 15.4" running Lion to hang at shutdown. I would open up iTunes and it would not respond so I would have to force quit it. Then I proceed to shut my mac down (I always quit all running applications and uncheck the 'reopen windows'), where it continues to hang with that grey spinning wheel. I've left it for over 10 minutes and it still hangs, so I'd have to do a hard shut down. This doesn't happen all the time, but it's becoming quite often now. Please help!
If you forced quit iTunes before shut down then that is not what is causing you the problem. Reboot to the Lion Recovery Disk and run Repair Disk from Disk Utility.

MY IPHONE 5 SUDDENLY HANGED FOR A WHILE AND THAN SHUT DOWN. NOW SCREEN IS BLACK AND PHONE ALMOST IS DEAD. ITS NOT RESPONDING ON ITUNES AND NOT EVEN ON CHARGING. KINDLY LET ME KNOW HOW TO START IT. ITS SEEMS TO BE DEAD.
THANKS,
ANSARHas it recently been exposed to water or any other liquids, perhaps in the rain or a pub. If so, you will have to consider it likely to be dead. Take it to your nearest Apple store for check out.

Re: Satellite A215-S7444 just shuts down after one hour of usage
I have a satellite A215-S7444.
My problem is that while i'm on the computer after about an hour or so the computer just shuts down.
I have already tried changing the power manegment settings which worked for awhile but my laptop still turns off after awhile.Hi Patrick
Im quite sure that your notebook shuts down automatically due to the high temperature inside the notebook.
Its a simply overheating issue which could be caused by clogged cooling grilles.
From time to time its advisable to clean the ventilators. Mostly the dust prevents the cooling modules from properly working and therefore the temperature increases.
I made good experience with the compressed air spray. Such sprays can be purchased from many computer/notebook dealers.
Additionally you could try to google for some online offers too.

Satellite P505 S8950 laptop shutting down with bluescreen error message
Hi ,
I bought Toshiba Satellite P505-S8950 model 4 months ago.
I notice my laptop shuts down intermitently while straming videos especiaaly in 'full screen' mode and while using skype with video chat.
My laptop is still under warranty and I have not created any back up since I bought.Now,
Because system is unstable so doing back up now may not be useful.
After every restart I have meesage 'computer has recovered from unexpected shutdown' and upon allowing Windows to find solution nothing comes up.
copy +paste of one of error log-

I am running windows 7 home edition premium with 64 bit and RAM test after every restart is good so far.
Please can anybody help to the system stable and help my experience while browsing more enjoyable?
Thanks.I have European Satellite P500 almost 2 months now and use it with original preinstalled Win7 home premium 64bit. I use it daily for work and some multimedia activities. I also use Skype almost daily.
Until now I didnt notice any similar problem.
It is not easy to discuss about such problems because none of us know how you have configured preinstalled OS, which applications do you use and if there is some software conflict that can be responsible for this.
Have you installed something that can be responsible for this behaviour?
To be honest I cannot imagine you have had this problem from the first day. Maybe you should install recovery image again using HDD recovery option.
I dont know what kind of back-up do you mean but what you can do is to start recovery DVD creation. -
Satellite Pro U400-13D shuts down repeatedly
Hi everyone,
I'm using the Satellite Pro U400-13D for office work only. During the last days the Notebook shuts itself down without warning during normal operation.
After a restart the problem reoccurs after a random duration.
Is this problem known? What can I do about it?
Thanks,
Alexander LorenzHi Alexander!
First of all welcome in forum! :)
Regarding your issue I have one question: Can you notice that the notebook is getting hot on the bottom side? I ask this because normally a notebook shuts down if its getting to hot and so it protects the hardware. Otherwise the hardware would be damaged due a higher internal temperature.
As Akuma said you buy compressed air spray. So you can clean the notebook and this blows the dust out from the cooling ventilators. Maybe it works for you.
Furthermore about cleaning a notebook I have founded an interesting article:

Satellite laptop won't shut down
Any time I try to turn my computer off it won't do it. It will say it's shutting down, but it just sits there with that message. I have to turn off the unit and turn it back on to restart it.
Satellite M305D-S4831
whenever I choose to shut down, the computer goes to the shut down screen then just stays there.
running Windows XP.
See if you can use the information here to discover what gets in the way.
