Problems with Finder and Shutdown/Sleep

Hello

I am using a Powerbook G4 (2 years old) running OSX Tiger with all the latest updates. Recently my Powerbook has developed a problem that manifests itself in the following ways:

(1) When trying to Shut down my system it just hangs until it says 'unable to close mirror agent' - I have not successfully shutdown in a few weeks and have had to manually hold down the power button to switch off.

(2) When putting my laptop to sleep, the computer now takes much longer to initiate this command, approximately 5 times as long.

(3) Serious problem with mounted volumes on my finder - This includes my iPod, USB drives, or mounted volumes when installing software - When I click the eject button, it just doesn't work.

I believe this to be some sort of problem with the Finder.
 
hi,
do you have an iDisk?
which volumes can't you eject? all or just one?

open system preferences --> .Mac --> and disable iDisk Sync, then try again shoutting down, is it working?

hope that helps

cheers
