This MacMini is having shutdown failures and they're increasing.
I use the Apple Menu's Shutdown command. After about a minute the screen goes grey but the power doesn't shut off. The white power light is still on. This used to happen rarely, but now it's happening most of the time. What is causing this, does this indicate serious issues and is there something that can be done about it?
A few months ago an Apple tech advisor told me to pull the power plug when a normal shutdown fails, wait a few minutes. Then quickly press these keys when rebooting: Command-Option-P-R. This will trigger a CROP second reboot immediately. Apparently doing a CROP settles some things internally. Yet the shutdown failures keep on increasing.
This is a 2009 MacMini running 10.9.4. Processor 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 8 GB Ram. Earlier tonight I ran Disk Utility to verify the hard drive. It said the hard drive is OK. Then ran a permissions check and it found and fixed a handful of items, details below:

Anything pops out at you? Is this just an annoyance to get used to? Or is this an early sign of trouble ahead?
Appreciated.
