I'd very much like help please.

  For the sake of running AppleWorks an Eudora my MacBook Pro late 
2010 6,1 is running OS X 10.6.8 and will only shut down when the 
power button is held down. It won't from either the Apple's Restart 
or Shut Down.

I have re-installed 10.6.8 and all updates, reset pram & SMC. I have 
both Time Machine and SuperDuper backups.

TIA,

James
