Laptop won't be completely out

For some reason, my Macbook Pro retina is more completely shut down (I have to press the power button to force it to close).

What is happening is that...

Click on stop in the Apple menu.

Finder resignations (menu of the top bar closes and the drives icons disappear), but the image of the Office remains and more, nothing happens.

If I press alt + cmd + delete to open the dialogue to force out and then attempt to restart Finder, I can go through the dialogues, but nothing is really happening. So I hold the power button to complete closing down.

I reinstalled OSX (cmd - r during startup and then reinstall) and also reset NVRAM, but the problem has not disappeared.

Only, this started happening a couple of days, and I don't think I added something new to my system at that time here.

Anyone have ideas on how I could go on fixing this?

Thank you

David

Your system may not stop if the internet connection is still active and may download an update in the background.

As this is a laptop - if you have more than one USB device - the system can get stuck if he feels it is connected a device that is no longer connected.

I had that happen on my desktop pro - same symptoms you have and the only recourse was to kill the power.     Check the logs - the system was trying to shut down the city one external modem that I had unplugged in order to use the same port for a return to the top.

    What do you suggest I should do?

    How much will it cost in India?  I have no idea. I live in Europe.

    I suggest to ask a repair shop of PC or laptop.

    If the cost of repair is more than 50% of the current value of the laptop, you would be better sourcing of a notebook replacement.

  • laptop won't start windows xp up.error win32k.sys?

    My laptop won't boot windows xp, to ask if I want to start windows normally or with guests orders or network in safe mode. According to what I try nothing works. It says: an error has occurred with win32k.sys. What is - this and how to fix it?

    Claire

    As you probably know Evesham closed to the public in 2008.

    I think that your computer is a portable computer. I can't access a free copy of the manual, but I imagine that you have a copy of the operating system on the hard drive in a recovery partition. Am I wrong?

    Before attempting to repair your computer, you will need to back up your data files on removable media. If the computer does not start, you need access to a second computer at home. Do you have a? If Yes is it a desktop or a laptop?

    I would also ask if you comfortable using a screwdriver to remove the hard drive of your laptop Evesham, put it on an external support which can be purchased via Amazon and its connection to a USB port on the second computer. These are not difficult tasks, but not everyone wants to take on this task. If not comfortable take your laptop to a local computer repair shop.

    As for the repair of your laptop once you have recovered your data files, restore the operating system to factory settings using the copy of Windows XP, which I think is more than likely in a recovery partition. It will be activated by single key, perhaps the F10 or F11 key or you can have an option in the menu that appears when you press the F8 key during the boot process. It also seems that Evesham commonly supplied recovery discs.

    If a factory restore does not work I would then test the memory.

    Hello

    This backup after pressing F11 is a HP backup option, not a Microsoft option.

    I suggest that you contact HP or ask their Support Forums.

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/

    It's the normal advice I'd give to record data; but we have no idea of the State of your hard drive.

    Saving your files:

    You can remove the hard drive and put it in a hard drive USB enclosure > plug it into another computer > and try to read and copy your data in this way.

    Or, you can download Knoppix > make a bootdisk to > start your system with it (IF your material is all work) > and copy your data from the hard drive like that.

    my laptop won't turn on... I tried a hard reset and still its doesn't turn is not on... If I plug the power supply cable there is no sign of life whatsoever.the power light does not turn on either

    the fan does not turn on... it is not even a single sound or sign of life... I changed the batteries... I changed the charger/power supply but still nothing.i have tried to reinstall the memory and even changed the hard drive, but still nothing and I now suspect the motherboard

    Have you tried to connect the laptop to a power adapter and then gently shake the power adapter connection to see if the power led blinks on and outside?

    Who will let you know if the problem is the connector of the DC adapter on the motherboard. They are not lacking.

    Hello

    You can try the following.

    Shut down the laptop.  Tap away at f8 that you start the laptop to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press ENTER.  If windows will load in this mode, on the Start Menu, click principally made programs, click Accessories, click System Tools and run the system restore.  Choose a restore point at least 24 hours prior to the issue of logon and then proceed to the restoration.  When you are finished, Windows will restart as normal in order to check if you can now connect correctly.

    Another option if the above does not help is as follows.

    Shut down the laptop.  Tap away at f8 that you start the laptop to enter the Windows Recovery Console.  Use the arrow keys to select "Start using last good known Configuration" and press ENTER.
