I have a MacMini (OSX.4.11) that has decided it won't turn itself off
fully without my pressing the button at the back after it has shut
itself down (i.e., the light on the front has gone off). Additionally, I
have it set to turn itself on at 8:00 am on weekdays and it now doesn't
respond to that. Not sure how old it is now but probably 2-3 yrs or so
(1.66 gHz duo with 2 gigs of RAM). I have done the usual software
maintenance things with Applejack and Onyx and can't think of a
particular reason why it might have started this behaviour. In itself
it's not a big deal but I am concerned that it may indicate something
more sinister going on with the operating system. It seems otherwise to
be working fine. It's had a lot of hard work but it's been a great
little computer.
