MacBook Pro turns on by itself.

[valaltamura]

Hello!
Hoping someone could help me.
I usually live in México but at the moment I'm in Italy visiting my family.
3 days ago when I was shutting down my computer my Mac turns on again.
I already clean the cookies, internet history, caché, checked that all the programs are close.
Could someone help me?

Thanks a lot.

More information is needed.

Did this happen just that one time or is it a recurring problem?

Perhaps you meant to shutdown but restarted instead?

Did you put it to sleep and maybe your mouse woke it up? Or did it just restart? Worst case, just restore to when it was working fine.

reset SMC - it's probably sensing a power failure and resuming per preferences.

Note: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).

Shut down the computer.

Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.

On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.

Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.

Press the power button to turn on the computer.

Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
