MacBook Pro will not sleep (by command or shutting the lid) or shut down.
So far I have tried:
Repaired the permissions with Disk Utility - no change.
Repaired the Hard Drive with Disk Utility - no change.
Created a new user - no change.
Ran the Hardware test disk, which reported no problems.
Started from a new System on an external disk - no change.
Booted into Windows via bootcamp, when you shutdown Windows it immediately reboots into the selected startup system, whether Mac or Windows.
Reset the Power Management Unit - no change.
Reset the PRAM - no change.
When the MacBook is running it works fine and has no glitches.
If you shut down the MacBook Pro and then quickly remove the battery before it restarts, leave for ten seconds or so you can put in the battery and it will not spontaneously start, but after you have started it, you cannot shut it down or sleep it!
Has anyone got any other ideas or tests I can do before I have to resort to the Apple Store Geniuses?
Thanks
