[G4] Upgraded to 10.4.10 and now it won't shut down

[Steve Adams]

First thing I would do is look at Activity Monitor after shutting  
down and see which program is not responding. Try doing a Forced Quit  
on that program from the Activity Monitor. Usually this resolves my  
problem forever.

Next I would check and repair permissions.

After all that, if there are still problems, try reinstalling the  
last upgrade. The upgrade should go faster since it sees it has  
already been installed and only tries to install missing or corrupt  
files.

No need to reinstall any applications, the upgrades won't effect them.
