Problems shutting down your MacBook?

If your MacBook isn’t shutting down it may be still closing apps in the background, the advice here is to be patient, sometimes it can take a while to shut apps if data needs to be saved.

However, there may be an issue with an app that is stopping your MacBook from being able to close. Look in the Dock to see if there is a bouncing app icon, that would indicate that something needs attention. Perhaps it’s just Pages or Word asking whether you want to save a file.

You may need to Force Quit if something is causing a hold-up and can’t be fixed – beware you may lose some data though.

If you can’t Force Quit, press and hold the power button until the MacBook switches off.

Note that when you restart your MacBook it may ask you if you want to reopen all the apps that you had opened previously. We’d advise that you say no to this option just in case something you had open causes the same problem again if it reopens.

Is your MacBook frozen?

Has your MacBook frozen in the middle of a task, or an app has become unresponsive? It is possible to “Force Quit” the app or task by right-clicking/control-clicking on its icon in the Dock and choosing “Force Quit”.

You can also “Force Quit” an app by pressing Command+Alt+Escape at the same time.

Pressing command+ctl+eject on your MacBook laptop can also force a reboot. Holding down the power button for 10 seconds will also achieve the same results.

When you have to Force Quit or reboot your MacBook, you can possibly lose some data. Are you using Time Machine? A backup can help recover the data loss during a forced reboot of a frozen MacBook. 

If your time is short, contact MattesPCExperts. Our MacBook repair will have the issue fixed by the end of the business day.
