Very long shutdown time Macbook Air

[dojoman]

After I upgraded my MacBook Air mid 2011 model to Yosemite it takes a long time to shutdown. Normally it only takes 2-3 seconds now it's more than a minute, I can see spinning wheel keeps going. Is anyone seeing this?

The first time it did same with me, 20 seconds or so, but after that it was fast....

I restarted 3 times already it takes like 2 min to shutdown. Ughhhh! It sucks on old MBA. None of the handoff features are working either.

I'm having the same issue. Having a 2008 Alu MB. Shutdown takes about 2.30 minutes to 3minutes. Tried disabling icloud but still the issue is same.

That sucks surprised to see this sort of issue on such a recent computer.

Any solution here?

Same problem on my iMac (Mid. 2010) - takes 2-3 Min. to shutdown - before update it was about 20 seconds(!).

Update:

Problem solved: had to uninstall an old Version of Paralles.

Shutdown now in under 5 sec.

Which version of Parallels did you uninstall?
