[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 469660, member: 24160"] Regarding powering off - have not found another posting in my searches with this problem. Whoever is saying that the Mac won't turn off because it is reading the TV as still having power - I just don't believe that is the case. If this were the case, there would be questions all over the place about people not being able to shut down their systems and first questions being asked of "Did you turn the TV off?" They're just not out there. Just as a test, connected my Mac to 4 different HDTV's and have no issue with powering down while the TV is still turned on, and therefore my MBP is certainly recognizing a signal there. Have found multiple articles and posts related to USB devices producing this issue. Think I would look to what other external devices are connected. And at the same time - it wouldn't hurt to shoot a question off to LG's support team. [/QUOTE]
