Turning off system shut down warning?

Is there a preference whereby you can turn off the "you have selected shut down which will happen in two minutes" warning? I'd prefer an immediate shut down. It's seems a bit inconsistent when so many of Mac apps perform their function without a warning (eg. photo changes saved without a dialog choice box) but this straight forward function needs an extra confirmation. I have tried just leaving it to the two minutes, but occasionally an app like Skype will prevent the shut down procedure and the Mac is left on.

Hi,
Try controloption+commandeject. Obviously only try this when you're certain you want to shutdown

  • Pre Turns Off or Shuts Down when I close the keyboard

    Is my pre screwed or is it OS?  
    It shuts off, not the version that other people have had where you have to pop the battery (the power button still works to turn it back on) out to get it to restart.  Anyway, it shuts off when I slide it closed.  I thought maybe something loose so I did it very slowly, not allowing it to even go all the way, the minute that the sensor tripped it back into "no keyboard" mode it turns off.  
    It's especially bad when on bluetooth...happens every single time.  
    Is there a solution for this.  Please palm, a lot of people are having this problem and there is no answer yet? 
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Palm is on deathwatch.  The Pre could have really kept them afloat, but there are too many problems with it.  When I first got my Pre in June, it was awesome!  Everything worked great.  But now, I am always having problems with it.  Here is the list:
    1. Pre turns off or shuts down when I close the keyboard.  (I had to make this one the first on the list since it is the topic.)
    2. Pre turn off or shuts down for no apparent reason and the only solution is to remove the battery, wait a second, put the battery back in, then turn it back on.  This takes forever.  Plus, because I have removed the back so often, my Pre squeaks when I am typing (from the plastic).  It is very annoying.
    3. The navigation system has a glitch where most of the time, it cannot find my current location.  The message says to make sure I am in clear view of the sky, but i always am.  There are many posts about this problem in other sections.  There are some solutions, and the often work, but it takes 5 minutes to reset the system.  It is a beating.
    4. The navigation system voice is usually very clear, but sometimes, the voice will skip over the names of streets as she is calling out the directions.  Ex. "Turn right on ________ Drive."
    5. Sometimes the keyboard will stop working.  I have to remove/replace the battery.  Again, this is time-consuming and further contributes to the squeaking problem when typing because you have removed the back so many times.
    I like Sprint because I can get unlimited data, txt, and mobile-to-mobile calling for $70/mo.  So, I hope that someone comes out with a great touch-screen phone (not the BB Storm), because I want to stick with Sprint.  If you go with an iphone, you have to get AT&T, which will cost you at least $100 for the same.  That is a $360/yr difference!  I am sticking with Sprint.

  • Fan doesn't turn off after shut down on 15" MBP C2D

    The fan on my 2-day old MBP C2D stays on even after shut down. The speed of the fan even changes. 3 hours after I shut down the fan was still spinning. I pulled the battery and pressed the power button to reset the SMC. As soon as I put the battery back in the fan immediately started spinning again. I didn't even power it on. When I do power it on the fan stops.
    My Macbook Pro is actually noisier when it's off than when it's powered on. Has anyone else encountered this. Hopefully there's an easy fix, I don't want to have to leave it with the Apple Store.

  • MBP won't turn off after shut down

    My MacBook Pro with upgrade to Leopard is staying hot after shut down. I am having to remove the battery to make sure, otherwise I have one red hot laptop when I open up my backpack. Is this another Leopard issue?

    Good morning,
    No, this isn't an issue I experience with Leopard...
    I'd try [Resetting your MacBook Pro System Management Controller (SMC)|http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303319] and see if that solves your issue.
    Hope this helps! 

  • Airport turns off - must shut down and turn back on

    Hi. I am wondering if anybody else is having a similar problem with their late 2008 MacBook aluminum. In the last few weeks I have found that Airport on the MacBook will not turn on. This usually happens when I start the computer. Airport does not start up. I can click the Turn Airport On from the drop down menu as much as I want, and the command is ignored. I must shutdown the MacBook and restart it. That usually fixes the problem.
    My router is an Airport Extreme which I purchased in April of 2007.
    Anyone else experiencing this problem?

    One of the Apple software updates has apparently fixed this problem.

  • Why does Internet Sharing Turn off when shut down/restart ?

    I've have had my Mac for a few months now and it has gone beyond my expentation it was defenatly a good buy . I was wondering if there is a way to keep Internet sharing on when I shutdown or restart my Macit would stop working. Ive went to bestbuy and tried this out in other macs and the same thing happened when I restart or shut it. Internet sharing would say it is enabled in preferences, but it no longer has the arrow point up. Apple could you please fix this on your next update I use this as a wireless router and it performes well except when I have to uncheck the box enable it again . Thank you

    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8156.html
    Your computer has to be ON to be able to use the Internet Sharing settings....

  • HP Pavillion 17 - Screen backlight does not turn off after shut down

    The screen stays lit up white after shutdown is complete.  No lights appear on the power button or any of the keys.  Just a white screen.  Any ideas what could cause this?  Laptop works perfectly when powered on.  Thanks, Susan

    Hi @suzygf78,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that your display is still after your computer is shutdown?! I am happy to help you with this. It would be best to get the full product number and OS version. Please read the following documents if you need help in finding those.
    How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
    Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?
    Is the display you are describing the built in display or an attached 2nd display?
    As a start here are a few documents to start with that may help, but if it is the built in display I admit I am scratching my head a bit as it is a very weird issue.
    Resolving Problems with Notebook Displays (Windows 7 and Windows 8)
    Resolving Problems with the Brightness of the Display
    Diagnosing a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for Damage
    Please let me know if any of those proved helpful, or post the requested information and we will go from there.

  • USB external HD does not turn off after system shut down

    This is not a new issue in Leopard. I had this issue also in Tiger but I never bothered to ask whether there may be a solution to this issue.
    I have firewire as well as USB HDs attached to my iMac. If I put my computer to sleep both the firewire and the USB HDs turn themselves off. The HDs come back to live after I reawake the Mac. But if I turn off the iMac then only the firewire HDs turn themselves off. The USB HDs remain turned on.
    Is there a setting somewhere that can be changed so that the USB external HDs turn themselves off after system shut down?

    Since the issue is not a Leopard issue, and maybe not even a Tiger issue, you might check with the drive manufacturer for some assistance.
    Does the drive turn off when you eject it and then pull out the USB plug? That's important.

  • I want to turn my macbook air off. the shut down button already appeared but the mouse/cursor just hang and won't work. even after pressing the enter button to shut my mac off won't work. what will i do?

    i want to turn my macbook air off. the shut down button already appeared but the mouse/cursor just hang and won't work. even after pressing the enter button to shut my mac off won't work. what will i do?

    This is not a reply. I just want to elaborate on this problem.
    My computer freezes occasionally when it is used after being sleep for a while. The spinning ball appears and everything is totally disabled. Nothing on the keyboard works.
    The mouse moves, but does not work.
    The only solution is to turn the power off and on (losing all data in open applications.)
    I kept the System monitor running on the side to find out which program was running when the computer froze. The Monitor as well as all other applications froze, but the data showed:
    Firefox 18.4%
    Activity Monitor 0.9%
    Firefox Plugin 0.2%
    This is all the information I have. By the way, I am using iMac with OS 10.6.

  • Auto System Shut Down

    Currently I am trying to put together a new computer. I have all the parts needed, and they are compatible. I put everything together, double/tripled checked all connections. when i try to turn it on, it runs for about 10 seconds, then just shuts off. ;(  I'm running it bare, i have no monitor, keyboard, mouse, and sound connected. I just turned it on barebone.
    I am using:
    K7N2 Delta-L Motherboard
    AMD 2800 Benton
    2x 512 kingston Ram sticks
    80gb 7200rpm hard drive
    floppy
    DVD drive
    CD/RW drive
    350watt enermax power supply
    I have tried taking one of the ram sticks out and turning it on, it didn't work.
    I tired getting a new 350watt antec power supply, it didn't work.
    WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?!?!  ?(  ;(
    Once again my problem is that the system shuts down automaticly after I turn it on. It will run for about 10 seconds then... it's down again.
    PLEASE!! SOMEONE HELP!!  ;(

    CMOS is the chip that stores ya bios info like date, time and cpu settings etc.
    It's the 3 pins bellow the small round silver battery.
    On my K7N2-L (non Delta) it's jumper JBAT1
    It as 2 settings 1 = keep data (normal use)
                     2 = clear data
     look at following X = jumper position o = empty pin
    Keep data
    O  
    x
    x  
    Clear data
    x    
    x
    o  
    after clearing cmos (do it with power off on PC or u will fry it) u will then need to setup bios again.
    If this still wont boot have a look at jumpers J10 & J11
    J10 sets cpu fsb mode
    J11 sets cpu fsb frequency.
    Look in ya manual it's in there.
    Try to get PC to post by setting J11 to
    J11  o     J10  o
         x          o  J10 not bridged = 100mhz
         x          
    J11 safe mode cpu fsb 100mhz.
    It will post then. Just the cpu will be set to a lower speed then it is.
    If it posts go in to bios and hit set bios default then bridge  J10 making it 133/166 mhz and J11 x
                                              x
                                              o  this sets J11 to default 133
    reboot and it should post good cpu speed.
    Hope u understand all this junk i just wrote

  • System shuts down while burning project

    While burning a DVD project the system shuts down randomly. I started burning a project and everything went fine until it started actually writing to the DVD. I walked away from the system for a minute and when I came back it was off. When I restarted it the DVD was unusable.
    I thought it may have had something to do with the energy saver features, so I turned off anything that would put the hard drive or display to sleep. I even surfed the Net during one burn to make sure the system remained active, but it shut off anyway.
    I ruined 3 DVDs so far. Any thoughts?

    Do you get any output from iDVD in the console log when this happens?

  • SYstem Shuts Down Every Time if on AC Power.

    1. This does not happen if running on battery.
    2. Lenovo suggested test seem to prove it is not a hardware problem  --doesn't happen if on "F1" key.
    3. Replaced power cord -no change
    4. They think it could be  defective Windows 7 Upgrade.  Did not point to Virus.  I have Virus protection.
    5. Does not happen when booting up.  Only when startup is complete and W7 Start screed is up.
    6. Started happening a couple of months ago, at random, once a day.  Now it goes black in just minutes, overtime.
    7 W7 was installed bout six months ago.  Was fine.
    8 Can't reload W7 because Microsoft requires you to be on AC power to load.
    9. If attempt to load from CD, system shuts down --goes black, complete shut down.

    Hi, ttranfagli
    I have a few questions so I can get a better grip on the issue at hand:
    What is your machine type and model? Also, what do you mean by "if on "F1" key"? Also, have you tried this in Safe Mode? Finally, does this occur if the machine is running off of AC power only with the battery removed?
    Thanks in advance,
    Adam

  • System shuts down immediately upon build

    My whole computer shuts down immediately upon trying to build a project. It only happens with one project. I can build other projects just fine. I was able to build this project just fine 5 months ago. I deleted the build folder to save space, but have made no other changes since then, other than transferring the project folder to another hard drive. Now every time I try to build the whole computer immediately shuts down.
    My first thought, is somehow an asset went bad, but I have no idea how that could have happened because every thing worked fine five months ago. I can't even determine what causes the crash from the log because it happens immediately. I have tried transferring the project folder to other hard drives, but the same thing occurs. My biggest question is even with a corrupt asset why would the entire system shut down. I would think I would just receive an error message.
    Thoughts on correcting the problem or any information as to what could cause the whole system to shut down would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Jurgen,
    Thanks for your reply.  You are right, the key was in that file. (Volker also pointed me in that direction). For some reason it had a name for my server that was not in my CFTGCP #10.
    WARNING => DpNetCheck: NiHostToAddr(PTC02.PTC) failed (rc=-2)                                                   
    I do not know where it got that address from.  It is close to the correct address but because it was not exactly correct the network access failed.  Once I made the change the jobs stayed up.
    On to to the next problem....
