Torretto Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Hello, i'm having an issue with rebooting on my laptop. Since updating from 10.5.3 to 10.5.4, I can no longer reboot the system. When i execute the reboot command it shows every sign of rebooting, apps close, logs out, gui closes, display turns off then it just halts. At that point the only thing i can do is a hold down the power button to turn it off. This is really weird because shutdown still works fine. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks, Torretto Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/160064-cant-reboot-anymore/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

josephien Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 hi, did you try waiting for about a minute? because i also thought i had that problem but it seemed that it did the job but was quite slow to reboot (or even shutdown) greetz Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/160064-cant-reboot-anymore/#findComment-1146648 Share on other sites More sharing options...
