Greetings,
When I select Restart or Shut Down from the Apple menu, all of my apps close, but then it just sits there showing the desktop pattern. The cursor remains live. Nothing else happens. I have to hit ctrl-opt-power to force a power down.
This happens regardless of which account I'm logged into. (I have an extra "safety" account that I never use for anything. It has admin privileges.)
It also happens if I click Restart or Shut Down in the Login screen.
It also happens if I force reboot into Safe Mode and then try to Restart or Shut Down.
This iBook (see sig below) has a brand new HD in it, and I just spent an entire day doing a fresh reinstall of Tiger and all of my apps.
Help!
Thanks,
DM
