[QUOTE="MacDude121, post: 1416706, member: 173432"] Hey guys, so I've been having some trouble with my MacBook recently, for some reason, after I select "Shut Down" from the apple menu, my computer does not shut down, instead the dock disappears, the menu bar disappears, and then it gets stuck. My mouse is still moveable and my background is still visible, but that's all I can do. I've waited 20 minutes and still no change, it forces me to do a hard shut down. (which I hate doing) Any ideas? I've repaired disk permissions, and checked activity monitor with no other Apps running and everything seems normal, at least no processes that should keep it from shutting down successfully. This all started after I installed a software update, can't quite remember exactly what it was but it included a Java and security update, could this somehow be causing the issue? Any help would be appreciated. :) [/QUOTE]
