Satellite L doesn't boot up after restart or shutting down

Hello,
My laptop after restart or shutting down doesn't starting.
I need to turn off the computer and wait 10 seconds and try again, after that it start ok.
Any suggest?
Thanks,
Dvir

To be honest I dont know if there is the problem actually. Most important thing is that your notebook starts. I dont know if this is so important if this happen after 5 or 10 seconds.
We dont know which notebook model do you have, how old it is, since when you have noticed this strange issue, so it is not easy to understand the problem.
>My laptop after restart or shutting down doesn't starting.
It is not easy to understand this statement. Does it mean that when you click on restart or shutdown option in start menu notebook react properly but cannot restart or be switched on immediately?

  • Feezing after Restart or Shut Down commands

    Perhaps this is a common problem, as I have seen it happen before, but I have a Mac G5 in my lab that, after being told to restart, or shut down, the icons disappear like normal, but it just sits there with the desktop background up. No shut down, no restart.
    I can restart manually by holding down the power button, but this machine is the master image for the lab and has to be able to shut down by timer, due to our college's "green" policies. If it won;t shut down on it's own, and has to be done manually, it defeats the purpose.
    I've already resatrted from the CD and ran Disk Utility to repair and verify permissions. It did find errors, and said it fixed them, but after restarting from the hard drive again, it is still freezing after given the shut down or restart commands. The cursor still moves and the desktop background are there, just no icons or dock.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Hi-
    The power functions of the machine are controlled by the PMU/SMU.
    A reset may be what is needed.

  • Finder DOES NOT Respond after Restart, Or Shut Down

    I am running an iMac G5 on OS X 10.5.4, After a shut down or restart, Finder does not respond, The only thing on my desktop is My HD and Chosen wallpaper. I can launch Apps from the Dock, but not folders from the dock, Not Downloads folder, Documents Folder, Just Applications, which is weird because they are in finder too! Mail starts up when I log in so I can access Mail, I use Firefox, When I click on it in the dock it starts up no problem, after a while Finder does respond, I get all my icons back on my desktop and can access folders. I have Cleared System Cache, Browsers Cache, I ran Disk Utility and REPAIRED Disk permissions. No help. Short of RE-Installing Mac OS X, What Should I do? Is this happening to anyone else??

    I am having the same problem!
    I have tried the following: deleting the com.apple.finder.plist, deleting the com.apple.sidebar.plist, I have reinstalled the 10.5.5combo update, I have deleted all of my photoshop preferences (possible solution from another thread), and it is still doing it!

  • Satellite Pro L300D doesn't power down after Windows XP shuts down.

    Hi... Wondering if anyone can help me!
    I have a Satellite ProL300D and it's just over a year old. I've had shut down problems with it pretty much since I got it, but after re-loading XP four or five times I decided to stick with restarting the laptop before shutting it down... But now that uni is finished for the year I thought I'd have a go at sorting it out again.
    It basically shuts down Windows fine, although it does seem to take quite some time, then the screen goes black but the laptop hasn't powered off. The green light is still on, and the screen is still lit. As I said above, if I restart before shutting down, then it shuts down no problem, also if I watch DVDs and don't go online, it will shut down no problem. If it goes into Stand By mode (which it only does on a critical battery, about 3%, as I've set it to 'never' in the power settings, a possible cure read in another forum), then it won't do anything and has to be turned off by holding down the button. It gets stuck in whatever it was doing and won't restart etc. The laptop came with Vista and an XP downgrade.
    Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Did you have problem with Vista before downgrading to XP? It can be OS/drivers or hardware issue. I have found something interesting about shutdown an restart troubleshooting. Not sure if it helps you:

  • Satellite M40x will not boot up after CPU upgrade test

    I have an M40x Laptop. I took the CPU out of it to replace it with another to test the computer booted up fine so I shut down and took it out and put it's original CPU back in, and it would not boot. Now it will not boot up at all with either of the CPU's all. When I turn on the power all I get is a white screen for a few seconds and the laptop shuts itself back down. Both the CPU's are good because I have since tested them in other computers to make sure that was not the problem.
    Anyone have any ideas on what is causing this??

    Im not surprised.
    As far as I know Toshiba does not support any CPU upgrades and it's not advisable to do something like that.
    Its a fact that the CPU replacement on the notebooks is not easy and mostly not recommended.
    The processors used in portables are connected to the system board using a process called TCP (Tape Carrier Package). This is a permanent connection method and is used in the interests of miniaturization and heat dissipation.
    Did you assign the new heat paste? Its necessary and important if you want to connect the CPU again.
    So possibly this is a reason for the no booting.
    I think more details you will get from the service guys in your country

    I am having a similar problem. Running Xp.
    Latest revision of firefox.
    After using firefox for a while if I exit, parent.lock is locked and i have to reboot to reload firefox.
    I have killed all firefox applications from task manager (usually there are none). and I have tried 3 different "file unlock" programs including unlocker to no avail.
    I also recently installed a program that shows -all- open files, and parent.lock is not listed, and thus not closable/unlockable from there.

  • MacBook won't restart or shut down after upgrades

    A couple of days ago I downloaded and installed updates from software-update (including a security update). I had to restart my computer, and everything worked. Later that day when I wanted to shut down my computer, nothing happened. I haven't been able to restart or shut down my macbook since then.
    I used Disk Utility to check my hd and this is what I found:

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Backup your data first since you still have access to it as my FAQ* explains:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    Once that is down, force restart it by removing both the battery and power cord and repair the disk with the original installer disk that came with the MacBook:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    If that can't repair the Mac, you may need Alsoft Disk Warrior.

  • G5 won't restart or shut down or change startup disc...

    (after several updates) my computer won't restart or shut down except manually... which prevents me from changing the startup disc (where all my important stuff is). Option key during startup doesn't give me the startup disc option either.
    I'm stuck!
    I verified and repaired permissions on both volumes, but can't switch back to the hard drive/OS I need.
    If anyone can suggest some helpful info I'd really appreciate the help.

    Hi-
    Are you using an Apple keyboard? If not, please do so while troubleshooting.
    Try resetting the PRAM. Hold CommandOption+PR while starting up. Hold the keys until you hear the second startup chime, then release. The machine should then boot normally.
    If this fails to return function, a PMU/SMU reset may be required.
    There is a possibility of damaged files within the OS. Boot to the OS install disc, open Disk Utility and run Repair Disk on the Startup volume.

    As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17.  They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
    Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
    Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

  • OS 10.4.6 won't restart or shut down

    I installed 10.4.6 on my powerbook g4 that was running 10.3.9 without a problem. Big mistake.
    I repaired permissions, then custom installed 10.4.6 skipping the foreign language fonts and printer drivers I don't need.
    Installation was successful. Set up assistant started up but I skipped it because I had no connection to the net when I installed.
    I got my desktop, everything looked fine but the computer would not restart or shut down. Force quit was not a option.
    The only way to shut down the computer was to hold down the power button.
    I started up the computer, repaired permissions with DU and then put it through Cocktail. No indicated problem until Cocktail tried to restart. It didn't work.
    I restarted with shift-safe boot, but the problem remained. My formerly reliable PBg4 will not restart or shut down with this new OS 10.4x
    Any suggetions? Thanks.

    Steve:

    It is not Tiger that's causing the problem. Tiger will run fine on your PBook. It's because you short-circuited the process. Next time around, go through the setup and when it comes to registering with Apple, click later. As baltwo said, if you don't have a backup you will need to re-install.
    Good luck.

    Hold the power key for 10+ seconds.

  • G4 Won't Restart or Shut Down from OS 9.2.2

    My G4 867 suddenly began refusing to restart or shut down when booted in OS 9.2.2.
    If I'm running under OS 9.2.2, the only way to shut down or restart is to hit the Restart or Power button. If I want to restart and go to OS X, I have to load my OS X Install disk, do a manual restart (as above), boot the CD (holding down the "C" key), and then choose Restart from the Installer menu.
    I've zapped the P-RAM and rebuilt the desktop. I've tried booting with Extensions off. I trashed the System and Finder Prefs files.
    I tried to install a new OS 9, but the computer refuses to boot from my OS 9 Install disk. It gets as far as a blank desktop and then freezes. I copied a new System folder from another G4 and rebooted from that, but it still won't restart or shut down.
    Any ideas?

    Hi, Jerry -
    Welcome to Apple's Discussions.
    By chance do you have a utility named File Saver installed? I think it came with either Norton Utilities or TechTool at one time. If so, try disabling it.
    Otherwise, try throwing away these preferences files and restarting -
    Energy Saver Preferences
    Finder Preferences
    Mac OS Preferences
    Power Mgt Preferences
    System Preferences
    Afterwards you may need to redo some settings in Finder's Preferences and in the Appearance and Energy Saver control panels.
