  Hi angmel,

  What operating system are you using exactly?
  For example if you are using Vista and you press the close button in the start menu it does not turn off, it goes to stand mode only. Before you can use this button for farm star function to change this first in the menu options.
  Check this box!

  In addition, you can also configure the action of closing the cover, button / stop, etc..

• My computer won't shut down or restart

  There was an update of the systems, and after that I installed it my computer is unable to shut down or restart. I have to hit the power button to get it to turn off. When I close all the way down he does is get rid of the toolbar and icon of my office leaving me just my wallpaper. Now, I have an update that requires a restart. What should I do?

  Outdated software for a Tablet Wacom can prevent the closing. If you no longer use the device, please remove the software. Otherwise, update the latest version of the Web site of the manufacturer.

  After following the instructions on the removal link above, you may also need to open the users and groups in system preferences, select the login items tab and remove all Wacom related items. It is because the uninstall program is defective.

  Back up all data before making any changes.

• Windows 7 will not shut down or restart

  Hi guys, basically for the 3 days since my computer won't shut down or restart. I normally turn off every night and I've never had this problem before. I used the tool to update window update, but it says that it cannot complete the installation until I restart, but obviously I can't do that either.

  I tried to change the power does-that is to say buttons when the laptop closed = stop down. But even that won't work.

  Anyone has any ideas that could help me solve this problem?

  Thank you.

  Not sure, but what about the command 'shutdown '? (perhaps with the /r (reboot) option)

  Your office is frozen?   If not, stop or reboot can wait for something to finish - you close all open applications?   Allow you your system to connect to the internet (these pesky background downloads or you are not always aware of synchronization)

  As for hard shutdown - with button / stop

  Have you held in the power button for about 15 seconds to stop hard - otherwise he's asleep.

  After unplugging - press and hold the power button in for 15 seconds to evacuate the power of mac - that can help.

  Thank you very much. Would be a new instal OS solve these problems?

  If you mean a new facility on a reformatted drive or a system recovery using recovery of the manufacture process, Yes, certainly, unless it's a hardware problem - but then you learn nothing about what caused the problem in the first place and so how do I prevent it from happening again.
  WRT your mistakes: -.
  1. nothing to worry about, as most of the machines do not have parallel ports today (unless yours does?)
  (2) it is difficult to talk about this, without more details-, but because they say "dependants", rather that "unload", it can probably be ignored.
  (3) it seems normal - I've seen a lot of PC with this error, and apparently nothing wrong. -It is important only if you are connected to a domain server
  (4) the service (I think) is a result of system crash, rather than a cause of the grip.
   
  It seems that the cause of this will remain a mystery.
  My earlier concern about SR doesn't work not just because of problems still standing stop - but back your data first, so that if the worst happens and you cannot start the system later, you can go to plan B.
  As Lorien says, try a back system restore to before the problem started - although at 2 months, I would worry about the stability of the system later. Since you already said that you are willing to do a reinstall if necessary, give it a whirl :)

• MacBook Air 5.2 not shut down or restart.

  Hello.

  My MacBook Air 13' with OS 10.11.5 won't close (or restart) - usually. I have had this problem since Yosemite, but don't remember exactly under what version it began.

  To be more precise: current stop, all icons disappear (as usual), but the image of the Office remains active. I can always start other programs is Finder that is affected. Trying to Force Quit Finder does not help. Repeatedly (say 99 / 100 to give a number) it closed normally, but nothing in fact different... Judge without plugging anything if there's a device problem. Saute all automatic connect points. Cleaned cache and preference files dead (using Cocktail).

  What is a way I can follow the Shut Down procedure to see where it falls? Activity monitor?

  Thanks for all advice :-)

  Found the solution in an another tread with (almost) the same Air. Uninstalling the Wacom driver (in my case using AppCleaner) solved the problem. I wasn't the way of editing, since the latest driver for my bamboo tablet was the same version I had installed... (5.3.6-6). maybe a new installation works, but for now, I'm better of without the tablet. Thanks to click!

• Satellite A3OO - 15 X won't SHUT DOWN

  When I give to turn off the laptop, so he is not off, but only restarts in mode 'sleep'.
  I have the base for switching Panel.

  After the entry into hibernation mode is also for my laptop only to restart in mode 'sleep'.
  I have OS Win Vista bussines

  Hello

  I'm scared of m I didn't understand exactly what you did
  You click the shut down button in Vista is it good?
  And then your laptop goes into sleep mode? Is this good?

  Please consider that the default action for the power button on the Windows Vista Start menu is 'sleep'!

  If you want to change this, you need to go to
  -> Panel-> Options change Plan settings-> change power supply avancΘs

  Then go down to the option "power buttons and lid.» Here, you can change the options:
  Power button action - changes the hardware power button action
  Start - menu power button changes the power button on the Start Menu

  Here, you can change the power in standby, Hibernate, or Shut Down mode button.

  See you soon

• New laptop will not shut down or restart completely

  I have very recently (last week) got a new laptop Acer Aspire E 15 Touch, but I can't seem to stop or restart it.
  The first time I stopped it it close normally, but since I closed it down to do updates (110) there will be no more.

  I'm going to stop it and it just sits on the "shutting down" screen for hours - the same with restart.

  I just had to hold the power key to close it (when it is not closed) or just put on sleep.

  Thank you.
