System asks to shutdown abitrarily

i recently bought a new macbook and used migration assistant to smoothly transfer to the new machine. everything works fine but there is the singly annoying problem that the machine asks to shutdown when it is left on overnight or unused for an extended period of time even though the energy saver settings do not allow this.
the shutdown is blocked by my Camino browser and other apps and I can tell from the dialogs on screen where I get 'application cancelled shutdown', etc. ( note that the machine never actually gets a chance to shutdown because of this)
i have tried to check console log messages and look for other clues but cannot figure out why this is happening. any ideas?
I am running Leopard on a Macbook.

  • 10.7.2 ask for shutdown

    My iMac 21,5" with Lion 10.7.2   12G RAM  2,5Ghz intel core i5 iTunes version 10.5.3
    After the iMac wakes up from sleep mode. It ask for shutdown and restart.
    Have any one tried this before ??

    If you're able to boot, launch the Console application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search, and select the most recent panic log under "System Diagnostic Reports." Post the contents -- the text, please, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID” and "Kernel UUID," two long strings of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if either is present (they may not be.) Please don't post "shutdownStall" or "hang" reports.
    If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    During startup, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including your login items.

    If you don't have the Apple ID and password, how did you get Mountain Liomn in the first place? Without the Apple ID and password, you'll need to buy it to download it.

  • My ipad 2 will only charge if the system is completely shutdown and it can take up too 7-8 hours to reach 100% 2 hours later I'm down to 12-13% what's wrong with it?

    My grandson's IPad 2 won't hold a charge. It will only charge when the system is completely shutdown and it can take up to 8 hours to reach 100%! he's only 5 so he uses it to watch netflixs and playing games but a couple of hours after finally getting a full charge the indicater is down to 12%-13%. Keeping the system plugged up while he's using it doesn't do any good its like its not even plugged up. What could be wrong? Any assistance would be appreciated! I brought the IPad 2 in 2011 and gave it to him in 2013 when I brought myself the IPad Air...so its really not that old to be acting up...

    I have some problem with activation of my iPhone after iOS 7 installation. System ask me old owner's password & ID, but I don't know it and can't restore!
    Can You reset or take off this function and help me? Last time i use another ID -

    You need the previous owners AppleID and password.
    This cannot be bypassed. If you cannot contact previous owner or cannot get his AppleID/password, your iPhone is useless.

  • System ask for recursive BOM

    To SAP GURU,
    I have 1 problem in master ecipre .I have  halb( SFG-1 ) which is having 2 halbs ( SFG-2 & SFG-3 ). Again  this 2 halb is having their multilevel bom .respectvely .SFG-2 is having co product ( Co po -1 ) which is again input in SFG-1 .
    Now when i am saving recipe of SFG-1 system ask me that SFG-2 mat code is recursive & for also co product system ask me about recursive .Now unless & untill i will click on recursive allowed system dont allow me to save the recipe .Even if i saved recipe by clicking on recursive allowed in mrp run system not explode the BOM of SFG-2 .
    Only when header material is used in bom compnent then only bom will be recursive but in my case even if i have not used header material in any of my bom component  still system ask me abaut recursive ..So can u tell me is i am missing some where or some solution is their Now i am trying to solvr it by SAP notwes 161742.( Or any latest SAP note is available )
    Please tell me is their any valid solution .
    SANIL

    Sanil,
    what ever you mentioned is true , the only problem you are facing error is related to BOM level.
    SFG-2 and its co product ( Co po -1 ) you are putting in same BOM level ( ie in the BOM of SFG-1 )thats why you are getting this error.
    as Co Po-1 will be produced after the production of SFG-2 so it can be at lower level where SFG-2 is maintained.
    Think on it , its logiocaly correct , your co product can be produced before your main product.
    Check out and revert back.
    Regards

  • System asking me to fill MANDATORY fields, even I used EXIT-COMMAND for F3

    HI Experts,
    issue- there is mandatory field in the screen, so, am using the folllowing code, system asking me to fillup the mandatory field.
    then, i used exit-command, but, still its asking me to fill the mandatory fiels???????????
    code is,
    process after input.
    ***Exit command
    module cancel at exit-command.
    module cancel.
    module user_command_9001.
    module cancel input.
    case: ok_code.
    when wa_con_back.
    clear ok_code.
    set screen 0.
    leave screen.

    clear ok_code.
    set screen 0.

    module cancel
    module user_command_9001.
    Hope it helps you,

    I can't install and update any application, even for the free app the system ask me to sign in to the billing payment. Even though that I did sign, it still declined. Any one could help, please

    All Apple iTunes Store accounts must have a valid form of payment set up. Even for free apps and updates. The Payment Declined message comes from your card issuer or payment source; Apple is just a pass-through for the message. You need to find out why your issuer is declining your card.

  • System Asks for password

    Hello,
    I'm running Mavericks and the system asks me for password to weather creating or deleting a folder on the top level of the HD.
    That doesn't happen on the desktop or user folder or any other drive, only inside of the the HD main level.
    I got info of the HD and it does not have my user name listed. I went to the user account preferences and my user name is listed as administrator.
    Is this a normal? I have repaired permissions and used the terminal to reset ACL for my user name.
    Thanks in advance

    Normal. You shouldn't use that area for file storage. Use your home folder or the Shared folder in Users.

    I bought this iPhone from a guy and later on he passed away in Syria , after that , I tried to update the soft ware to ISO 7 but the system asked me for the old owner's information which I do not know so could you please advice me on that , what can I do to reactivate the device ?

    You cannot reactivate the device without knowing the previous owner's information.  This is the new antitheft measure built into the iPhone. 
    There's nothing you can do.  You'll need to purchase a new phone.
