My iMac keeps shutting off automatically. When I press the power button, it turns on, the white screen with Apple appears and begins to load for about 3 minutes and then shuts off.

iMac, OS X 10.11

iMac doesn't shut down Hello all, My iMac doesn't shut down correctly. The white timer displays on a black screen & turns indefinitely. Must reset the computer to shut down. But this is inconsistent: half the time, the computer does shut down normally. Safe boot has not fixed the problem. Any suggestions?
