Yosemite 10.10.3 cant restart, log out or shutdown

Restart, log out and shutdown stops with error:

 

loginwindow[66]: ERROR | -[SessionLogoutManager startLogout:logoutSubType:showConfirmationUI:countDownTime:useTALOption:logoutO ptions:] | Attempt to start a: Restart, AFTER a Restart was already past the point where logout can change types

 

Have to use power button to restart, really afraid about corruption of data/session and hate this workaround!

 

Installed fresh Yosemite 10.10.3 on my MacBook Pro Retina 15 mid 2014 - started to install programs and this error!

 

It doesn't happen only for Restart commands issued from the Apple menu though. It is also happening with Shutdown & Logout commands.

The Finder freezes and the menu bar & desktop icons disappear.

The Dock & Spotlight still works.

 

Finder can't be Force-quit/Relaunched. It totally ignores the command.

If you run any other app (using the Dock, Spotlight or Alfred) the menu bar of this app appears and so does the Apple menu along with it.

But re-issuing Restart, Shutdown or Logout commands using it, does absolutely nothing more than adding more loginwindow ERROR log entries in the Console.

These Console log entries are exactly as iMelekhov has posted above. They just say "Attempt to start a: Restart" or "Attempt to start a: Shutdown" or "Attempt to start a: Logout" respectively.

 

The only way to shutdown my computer (not that forcefully as the keyboard shortcuts do) is to use the Terminal.

sudo shutdown -r now

(-r for restart or -h for shutdown).

 

Also note that if you Apple menu -> Restart almost immediately after you login to the system, then it is working fine.

But if you start working and then try again after some time has passed the problem repeats.

 

Mavericks restarted fine.

 

Please, help!

So! Here is a big instruction how to solve this problem!

5) Right click on the copy of your Home account. Click on "Get info".
6) Click on the padlock (bottom right) and enter your administrator password
7) Click on the "+" button (bottom left) and select the name of your new user account from the pop-up that appears
8) Click on the settings button (bottom centre) and select "Apply to enclosed items"
9) Finally select your user account from the same settings button and select "Make {new user} owner" (or select 'Read & Write' in permissions in front of your new user account (This will allow your new user account access to all the same settings/documents as the original user)
10) Reboot and login to your new user account.

(You'll be asked to re-enter iCloud passwords etc but other than that all worked fine for me.

it does not matter , it's clean install or upgrade - an error is present here and there after a certain time

any ideas?

I have had twice exactly the same problem and seems to be related to Finder.

So, I deleted com.apple.finder.plist file in user library/preferences and the problem has been temporarily solved. I'll see on my next shutdown if this still works.

I did not help - in a day it happened again...

other options? And please tell me about the result after

I am having the same problem, and only on my user account on the machine. The other user I have set up can log out normally. The problem coincides with the 10.10.3 update.

See this! https://www.tonymacx86.com/general-help/161721-yosemite-10-10-3-cant-restart-log- out-shutdown.html

Here we have a solution but need some time to make sure it is working

Egads that's drastic. Try running Disk Utility and repairing any errors, first. It seems to have worked for me.

 

  1. Restart your Mac, and hold ⌘R while it starts up. This will put your computer in recovery mode.
  2. Choose Disk Utility when a list of options comes up.
  3. Select your startup disk and click Verify. If it finds errors, click Repair Disk.
  4. Also try repairing permissions.

I do agree with davextreme that this new user account solution is too drastic. However, so far, I haven't yet found any solution. The delete com.apple.finder.plist solution doesn't work with the time.

I'm feeling there is a bug when some external disk(s) are connected. Either shared servers, either NAS, either USB drives. Not sure, however.

I also repaired permissions, repaired disk (thru the disk utility), reset smc, reset pram ... In short, so far, everything possible without having to go for more drastic solutions that could create more problems than something else with the time.

I tried, but it does not work for me. Problem gone when i created a new user account

an ongoing problem in 10.11. no need to shut down, it only affects the console login. Although 'killall loginwindow' does affect all current logins, it does allow the affected account to have a running Finder.

 

Cause: no obvious cause. Just log in and wait,. The compuer does not sleep, only the display.
