To shut down my MacBook Pro, I click on the Apple icon (top left) and choose "Shut Down". That generates a sixty second timer which includes an option to click "Shut Down" again. Three or four times (I have had the computer about a month and a half, and use it every day), when I have clicked the second "Shut Down", the dock slides down and disappears, as if the laptop is about to shut down, but the desktop remains (the outer space image) ... until the sixty seconds have passed, and then the laptop closes. My question: Is there a way to turn off the sixty second delay, and have the computer simply turn off when I click Apple>Shut Down? Thank you.
