Wake on Lan will not shutdown

Hello everyone,
I hope I'm posting in the right forum as I think I am simply over looking something.
I have a dual boot system (win 7 and arch) and am trying to get Wake on Lan to work. I have installed ethtool and wol to find my card defaults to receive magic packets (g). I'm using an Asus Rampage IV Extreme mobo with the latest bios. Everything performs as it should with windows when shutting down or hibernating. My issue is when I suspend or shutdown arch it powers down completely and then reboots in a matter of seconds. If I force the card to wol unicast I can suspend the system (sometimes) but will still not shutdown without rebooting. I have used netctl to force the card to wol disabled and I can suspend it everytime. However, even setting wol to disabled, the computer will not shut down. I have disconnected the ethernet cord and even disabled the NIC in the bios but still the same results. If I shut down arch and pull the power when it initially shuts down it simply reboots as soon as power is connected again. The only way I have found to shut it down is to disable "wake on pcie" in the bios. This in turn also disables the windows Wake on Lan. If anybody has an idea of what a solution might be I am all ears (even if it calls for some trolling, I'm sure this deserves some :-)
Thanks in advance

Long standing problem for me and many others.. just google to see this but no solutions, 'linux wol will not shutdown'

Recently, I have been testing several systems (Z77 and H97-based) after I disabled all references to 'xHCI' as it pertains to USB settings. I also enabled wake on keyboard per one suggestion in one of the links above. In about 15 power cycles, I haven't observed an unintentional wake-up with 'wake on PCIe' enabled in the BIOS. More time is needed before I will claim either setting is the fix.

Can you help, also when I had Vista installed the 2nd page printed upside down. I have tried to get the patch for this, but cannot find it.
You may need to enable the duplexer hardware as described in the Vista Duplex Printing Troubleshooting Guide. There is also a link there to the patches for Vista back side upside down. When you have the duplexer enabled please post here about the results printing a duplex page. If the back side is upside down the Vista patch can be applied.

After downloading I was entering my password for iCloud and clicked on forgot....now it's stuck and will not shutdown. When I try to shut down it says Set up Assistant cancelled shutdown. This has been going on for 5 hrs plus...any ideas?

MAcbook is stuck and will not shutdown following download of X Mavericks software. Setup assistant is stuck and will not allow the MacBook Air to shutdown. It's been doing this for over 5 hours......any ideas?

Hi there—
This reply doesn't seem to take into account the query.
Please help?
The computer is completely unresponsive and won't shut down or turn off. It is stuck in Set Up Assistant after trying to sign in to AppleID.
Attempting to shut down or restart produces the following dialogue:
"The application Set Up Assistant has cancelled shut down.
To try shutting down again, quit Setup Assistant and click Try Again."
HOWEVER it is impossible to quick Set Up Assistant— the icon is completely unresponsive even to force quit, right click or anything.
I've managed to get into being able to see Dashboard and at the top Desktop and the dock below. But I can't click on anything from there. So it seems it is not the whole computer. Just set-up assistant.
Please help??
Thank you

My mac mini will not shutdown with either Mavericks or Yosemite (following a clean install)

First noted while running Mavericks, my Mac-Mini will not shutdown. It just hangs on a black screen with the little icon. I created a clean user account and the problem went away. Rather than do a fresh install of Mavericks, I waited until Yosemite came out. I reformatted the drive and did a fresh Yosemite install. I then restored my apps and data only to find the problem is still present. I've also tried stopping many of the applications I would normally expect might cause the problem with no luck. And I tried the one Yosemite suggestion regarding deleting the Library/Caches folder content with no luck.
My naive question: following the fresh install of Mavericks, should I have done a re-install of my (very many) applications instead of a restore from an image?
I've tried looking at the system logs after I've forced a shutdown with the power button but there's nothing I could find that shows any problems.
Any other suggestions of things to try would be appreciated.

Hi,
Thanks.
It is running 10.5.8.
I am trying to boot up an external drive with 10.5.8 on it. It works on my Macbook Pro which is running 10.5.8, runs on my IMAC running SL. But doesnt work on the mac mini?
It had been running SL, however there are a number of programs I have like Windows Live Sync which are not yet compatable with SL so i downgraded to 10.5.6 which came with the Mac Mini then loaded all updates.
It seems to just go into an auto reboot as soon as i click on it.
i thought it might be the firmware? Is it possible to downgrade them and then re-install?
I have reset the PRAM.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Surface Pro Windows 8.1 Will Not Shutdown

Hello All:
I'm having a problem with a Surface Pro that will not shutdown. It says it's shutting down, but it doesn't. I touch the screen after long periods of time after issuing a shutdown & it's waiting to log back in. Restart works as advertised.
Anyone got some tips to troubleshoot this? Thanks for any feedback.

I found it - "Turn on fast startup (recommended)" was turned on. This is a terrible (and not recommended by IT admins) setting to have turned on by default. Does MS even need to mess w/the shutdown buttons/process? First the Office Ribbon, then
the Start button, now this!
People are creatures of habit - keep things the same or @ least allow them to change it back to how they're used to!
Sorry for the rant, but YEESH already!

Laptop will NOT Shutdown after a hard drive installation

We have been rebuilding a Pismo from scratch basically. The last part was the hard drive which we did yesterday. It too awhile to get the computer to boot up but when it did it worked perfectly - or so we thought. After replacing all the contents of a broken iBook (cloned backup), we used it for a while and things worked fine. Unfortunately, it will not shutdown. Using shutdown ... it closes all the files and then just sits there with the desktop open. Tried several things and it just won't shut off. Any ideas?

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Are you talking about the Pismo not shutting down? Or an iBook?
Have you tried forcing a shutdown by holding down the power button for 5-10 seconds? This is how to force an iBook to shut down.
Every time you have to do a forced shutdown instead of a normal one, there is a chance of hard drive damage and you should repair the hard drive, either by booting into Safe Mode OR by starting up from the Mac OS X Install disc by inserting the disc and restarting your computer, holding down the C key as the startup chime is ending. Then click 'Next' at the language screen and choose Utilities > Disk Utility and select the hard drive in the left column. Choose the First Aid tab. Click Repair Disk to test and repair the hard drive.
Once you have repaired the hard drive with either Safe Mode or the Install disc's Disk Utility, then start up normally and repair permissions from Disk Utility in the Utilities folder on the hard drive.
If it continues to have problems shutting down, you may want to try resetting the PMU.
Good luck.

Photoshop CS5 will not shutdown

Actually, none of my CS5 apps will shutdown without Force Quit. What gives? Why all the issues?

Do you mean the console log?

markus - could you email that file to ccox (at) adobe com ?
We need to look at the whole log, and forward it to the ServiceManager team.
I think Steve can also walk you through steps to solve the issue on your

Installed XP but PC will not shutdown

I have a PC using an MS-6534 Motherboard that WAS running Windows 98SE with no problems.
For 'corporate' reasons the PC has been re-installed with XP Pro.
Ever since XP was put on it the PC will not shutdown. It gets to "Windows is shutting down" and then hangs ... stops functioning! Reset it and it starts fine. If I RESTART it then it works fine. I even took it back to 98 thinking I had a 'new' harfware problem, but it shuts down fine.
Can anyone give me some ideas of a) what is going on and b) how do I fix it?
Thanks,

Zap the PRAM and reset the CMS
A small amount of your computer’s memory, called “parameter random-access memory” or PRAM, stores certain settings in a location that OS X can access quickly. The particular settings that are stored depend on your type of Mac and the types of devices connected to it. The settings include your designated startup disk, display resolution, speaker volume, and other information.
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Immediately press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.Continue holding the keys down until the computer restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.
How to Reset Your Mac's SMC
The method for resetting your Mac's SMC depends on the type of Mac you have. All SMC reset instructions require shutting down your Mac first. If your Mac fails to shut down, try pressing and holding the power button until the Mac shuts down, which usually takes 10 seconds or so.
Mac portables with user-removable batteries (MacBook and most MacBook Pros):
Shut down your Mac.
Disconnect your Mac portable from its MagSafe connector.
Remove the battery.
Press and hold the power button for at least 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Re-install the battery.
Reconnect the MagSafe connector.
Turn your Mac on.
Mac portables with non-user-removable batteries (MacBook Air and some late 2009 MacBook Pro models):
Shut down your Mac.
Connect the MagSafe power adapter to your Mac and to a power outlet.
On the built-in keyboard (this will not work from an external keyboard), simultaneously press and hold the left shift, control, and option keys while you press the power button. Release all keys at the same time.
Press the power button to start your Mac.
Mac desktops (Mac Pro, iMac, Mac mini):
Shut down your Mac.
Unplug your Mac's power cord.
Press and hold the Mac's power button for 15 seconds.
Release the power button.
Reconnect your Mac's power cord.
Wait five seconds.
Start your Mac by pressing the power button.
Alternative SMC reset for Mac Pro:If you have a Mac Pro that isn't responding to the normal SMC reset as described above, you can force a manual SMC reset by using the SMC reset button located on the Mac Pro's motherboard.
Shut down your Mac.
Unplug the Mac's power cord.
Open the Mac Pro's side access panel.
Just below the Drive 4 sled and adjacent to the top PCI-e slot is a small button labeled SMC. Press and hold this button for 10 seconds.
Close the Mac Pro's side door.
Reconnect your Mac's power cord.
Wait five seconds.
Start your Mac by pressing the power button.

890GXM-G65 WOL Wake-on-LAN does not work

I am unable to get the wake-on-LAN to work for this motherboard. Can anyone help?
MB powermgmt is BIOS.
I have enabled at the Win7 network driver-powermgmt the ability to wake the computer.

Any help appreciated.

No, you can't turn the nic off!! How are you going to wake it when it's turned off?
Unfortunately if "Allow computer to turn off this device to save power" is unchecked,
then "Allow this device to wake the computer" will be greyed out.
I have another PC that WOL works (DELL) and it has all 3 mentioned checked!!!!!
I dont think "Allow computer to turn off this device to save power" means turn off the NIC!!! I think it means enable power management. Maybe a real expert can chime in here.
Hmm....what do I do next????

10.4.9 Will Not Shutdown or Restart.

Ok, I went through many many discussions but decided to start a new topic because nothing seems to be helping. I have a dual 1.8 G5 w/ 4 GB of memory. I ran Carbon Copy Cloner to do a bootable backup. repaired permissions, ran disk warrior, booted up from my 10.4 install disk and ran an update. After it booted up, I repaired permissions, downloaded the 10.4.9 combo update and ran it. At this time, it wouldn't reboot. Everything on the screen goes blank as if it quit everything. However, some processes seems to be preventing it from shutting down or rebooting.
I booted up in safe mode (holding the shift), single user mode (apple-s) and ran the fsck -f command. Still hangs.
I did open up console and ran a SUDO kill process command (can't remember which one it was but when I get home I will post everyone the command) then did a shutdown and low and behold it worked. However, if I don't run this sudo command before I reboot or shutdown it will not restart or shutdown.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'm thinking of doing an archive and reinstall or better yet, format and reinstall. I just don't really want to reload all my applications (Cubase SX 2 w/ all the VST's sounds like a PITA).
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.
Bill

Well last night I clean out various caches w/ MainMenu, zapped the PRAM (Apple-Opt-P-R), unplugged the power and none of them seemed to solve my issue. I ended up pulling the three items out of the StartupItems folder, sudo shutdown -h now in terminal, then shut down... I didn't just do everything all at the same time. I'm pretty sure that the three StartupItems were causing the problem because we are now starting up fine. Unfortunately I will probably need to reinstall CubaseSX 2 Dongle software because I think that was one of the items I removed from the startup items. Also I kind of was sloppy the other night and deleted the startup items under my user. So, I'm not done but everything seems to be working great right now.

Wake on LAN does not wake computer

Hi,
I'm using ARD 3.2 on OSX 10.5.2 on a dual G5 system. Its IP address is 192.100.1.102, and it is connected using the built-in wired Ethernet jack.
I can't wake my other computer, which is a G4 iMac running OSX 10.4.11. It is also connected to the network using its built-in wired Ethernet connection, with an IP address of 192.100.1.100. I have also disabled the wireless interface in this system. I have verified that under System Settings, the check box "Wake for Ethernet network administrator access" is checked.
Both systems are connected to a D-Link home router like many people have. Nothing exotic. But when I try to Wake the G4 using ARD, under Manage -> Wake, it does not work. The G4 doesn't respond, and eventually ARD times out and gives up.
However, two interesting points:
1. I found a freeware utility called "WakeUp" at http://www.coriolis.ch/en/wakeup and that is always able to wake up the G4.
2. I have found that if I put the G4 to sleep using ARD, I am then able to wake it up using ARD also.
Any help?
Thanks!

Consumer routers/switches such as your D-Link generally do not support the enabling of directed broadcast packets, which are required for use with the wake on LAN feature, so that may be the problem.
