The only "behavior" you may change is to disable the "any key restarts the MBP," such that only the power button is able to restart the machine. By according to Apple I mean during an Apple Care call I had with them where they eventually put a Senior Tech on the line who explained all this and the below to me. If the problem doesn't occur while booted into Safe Mode, let me know and we'll go from there.Īccording to Apple this is expected behavior on the newest SSD MacBook Pros (mine is an all SSD 2Tb 2018 model, 2.9 GHz Intel Core i9), so don't fight it.
HOW TO TURN ON MACBOOK AIR AFTER SHUTDOWN MAC
If all of the above doesn't work, it may be worth testing your MBP in Safe Mode to see if it behaves differently to how it does normally.įollow these steps to boot your Mac into Safe Mode:
Let go of all three keys and the power button.the keys will end up being held down for 14 seconds, the power button for 7 seconds) Press and hold the right shift key and the left option and control keys for 7 seconds before then also pressing and holding the power button down for another 7 seconds (i.e.If it's still misbehaving, reset the SMC again but with the following steps instead: Once you've reset the NVRAM and SMC use your MBP as usual and see how it behaves when you shut down etc. Let go of the power button and wait 5 seconds.Press and hold the power button for at least 10 seconds.speaker volume, screen resolution, startup disk selection, time zone information, etc). Note: When you log back in you may need to readjust some of your system preferences (e.g. Let go of the keys and let your MBP reboot normally.Hold those keys down for about 20 seconds or until you see the Apple logo.You have to make sure you press these keys before the gray screen appears or it won’t work. Press the power button and then press the command option P R keys.Before following the steps below, ensure you have no external hardware connected and that you're using the built-in keyboard. I'd start with resetting both the NVRAM and SMC (in that order). Is that really a new feature of the latest generation of MBP? What might be causing it? Could it have anything to do with peculiar "Energy saving" settings? Or could it have something to do with an app that would be preventing the laptop from actually turning off without triggering an error message?ĮDIT: I have checked on my wife's new MBP, and it behaves in exactly the same way. Is that a normal behavior for a new MBP? Anyone ever faced something similar? Are there any known instances of a new MBP not actually shutting down when clicking "Shutdown." in the "apple" menu?
HOW TO TURN ON MACBOOK AIR AFTER SHUTDOWN PRO
I am obviously not fond of having a "Shutdown." button that does not workperly pro and having to force shut down my laptop every time I want it to actually turn off. Note also that I never get an error message of the type: "Application X prevented your laptop from shutting down" after clicking "Shutdown.". In fact, I have clicked "Shutdown." many times in the last month without ever having to press the touch id to power my laptop on: I always simply pressed on the trackpad, which made me believe this was the new normal with MBP and triggered my asking of the other related question. This unfortunately has nothing to do with how long I wait between clicking "Shutdown." and pressing a key or the trackpad: This has happened many time after waiting the whole night between clicking "Shutdown." and pressing on the trackpad.

In contrast, if I force shut it down using the touch id button, then the MBP behaved as expected, i.e., it would only turn back on using the touch id button again, and would not turn back on by a simple touch on the trackpad or by pressing a key on the keyboard.ĮDIT: after a couple more tries, it appears I was mistaken, in the sense that even force shutting down the latpop does not actually solve the problem (see the discussion in the comments to Monomeeth's answer below) But then a simple touch on the trackpad or a hit on any of the keys "wakes it up", as if it had been turned off and was powering on again (it goes through the black background screen with the white apple in the middle and the progress bar). It looks as if it does actually turn off (turns black). When I click on "Shutdown." in the "apple" menu, the laptop behaves as if it was going to sleep rather than fully shut down. My new MacBook Pro (MBP) seems to fails to actually shutdown when clicking "Shutdown." in the "apple" menu. This is related to this other question Prevent MacBook Pro from turning on by touching trackpad.
