[QUOTE="biggrease, post: 1283781, member: 211820"] Hi everyone, new member here trying to find some answers to a recent problem. A couple weeks ago, I shut down my imac (2011-just bought about 4 months ago). When I tried to turn it back on, I must have pushed the power button about 10 times before anything happened. I thought "maybe you were just hitting it crooked or something" and gave it the benefit of the doubt. Again, tonight after shutting it down yesterday, it happened again. Only this time it took about 20 presses of the button before anything happened. It should be noted this is probably the first time I shut the computer down since last time, as I normally put it to sleep while not in use. Is this a problem anyone else is familiar with? What's the deal with this? The computer is still very new and I'm very disheartened at the fact that this $1,600 piece of machinery is performing like this. I'm a long-time apple user and have never encountered this problem with any other computer I've had. Can someone please give the old boy a hand with this? [/QUOTE]
