Restart, log out and shutdown stops with error:
loginwindow[66]: ERROR | -[SessionLogoutManager startLogout:logoutSubType:showConfirmationUI:count DownTime: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 - 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!
