[QUOTE="MacDude121, post: 1416756, member: 173432"] Yes, a disk utility repair is similar to Windows in respect to cleaning out and repairing permissions in your system. I have 80GB of HD space left, so that shouldn't be a problem either. A search of BOOT_TIME in the system.log only brought up one line of text: "Jun 21 10:41:42 evans-new-mac bootlog[50]: BOOT_TIME: 1340289656 0" Not sure what that even means, all other system logs seem irrelevant, just processes that the OS seems to be making normally. And besides that, my Boot Time is totally normal, shutting down is the real issue. Also found this: "Jun 21 10:41:15 localhost DirectoryService[11]: Improper shutdown detected" [/QUOTE]
