My imac wakes up every minute, and restarts when I turn it off (!)

My 2009 27 "iMac was very strange behavior in recent weeks. He wakes up every minute - according to the dump after the syslog (grep-i "Reason Wake"):

... and if I try to turn it off, he always turns his back. I've done all the obvious things like turning off "wake for network access" and "Start automatically after a power failure" in the energy saver control panel, as well as unplugging all USB devices and turn off bluetooth (using a bluetooth trackpad) wake.

Any suggestions? Thank you!

  • MacBook Pro freezes and restarts when holding

    My Macbook Pro (MacBookPro9, 1 or MD103LL/A 2.3 GHz, OSX 10.11.4 i7) Decides to freeze and restart when lifted with the metal part under the trackpad and around it. It also does the same thing if I let my elbows on the same premises. What may be problem causing it? The machine already fell from anywhere and so, but suddenly decided to act strange. I opened the cover back after this problem and cleaned of dust or debris but did not find a noticeable amount either. The HARD drive has been replaced by an SSD at the Apple Store Amsterdam (Leidseplein) about 3 years ago and the problem has occurred for about a year.

    I would speculate that there is a bad internal connection.  Can you reproduce this every time?  If so, you may be able to locate it.

    Try an Apple Hardware Test.  It could offer a clue:

    Note that an error free AHT is inconclusive.

  • Windows Media Player reconnection happens almost every minute and deadly it fail to reconnect each time (Ask again)

    I already asked this question and someone responsed quickly by asking for more information. I answered that he asked but get no response for several days, so I think that a new question may get more attention. Here is my question and my further response, pls help again.

    Question:

    When I open an rtsp: / / * stream, it can be opened, after no more than a minute, the flow has stopped, status displays 'Attempt to reconnect', after a while, text dialog box, said something like "cannot perform the action", and then disconnects the flow. I can click the "play" button to connect successfully, and then the same thing above occurs, once and once again.

    My response inline:

    ·         The streaming works fine outside Windows Media Player?

    I don't have another player who can play rtsp install

    ·         Which antivirus program is installed on the computer?

    Symantec Norton, the issue occur also when I turn off Norton.

    ·         If it works much earlier?

    No, never

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the antivirus on the computer program and check if it helps. If it works, you may need to check the settings of the program.

    This did not help, problem that happened to be the same

    Method 2: Check if the following is useful. (disable UDP)

    This did not help also. I tried method1 + methode2, it does not work too.

    Hi Dale.Johnston,

    Overheating would be a typical pattern of this behavior. I mean, that's if the laptop has a higher internal temperature and it will immediately fit to protect the equipment. Then it the normal behavior of s from overheating.

    Overheating may have different reasons. In most cases it's dust that blocks the fan. This would mean that you have to clean the cooling system of your laptop using the jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans.

    Generally, it should help. If this isn't the case, I would check the display driver. What display driver and operating system you are using?
    If you install the display driver Toshiba not they can also cause overheating if it recommendable s using Toshiba pretested drivers only. ;)

  • Why my computer turns off and restarts when I try to play the video?

    If I try to play a video, my computer starts, stops and restarts. I tried to find a solution, including Mr. Fix It, nothing helps. I cannot find a quick answer, is there something that I am missing? My camera is an older Windows XP program that crossed a unknown virus attack.

    Did you remove the virus? It looks like his crash. Restart and hold down F8, and then select Disable automatic reboot. The next time it hangs, what we said the blue screen. And if it shows the name of a file or a driver
