doesn't work. it still reboot.

This sounds like an issue with the hardware or BIOS not with the Debian OS, or with the Desktop environment. Though I have not had this problem, I have had several others related to shutdown/reboot/suspend/hibernate on various machines, but I know for a fact that all such problems have been with the hardware/BIOS, not the Debian software. I don't know enough about the iMac to offer anything more.

Every time since I installed the system,

every time I tried Shut Down, it mainly restart again.

I checked online and tried several methods but still don't work.

Can anyone suggest me how to solve it.
I'm having the same issue:

      https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=818311

So far, no progress in resolving it.
No problem here.  'shutdown -h now' (as root) works as it should.
Wheezy 64-bit, fully up-to-date; no desktop environments installed, just
Openbox window manager.  System boots to terminal, login there, then
startx. I like to keep things simple.

Maybe, problem is related to a desktop environment.

No, I use a desktop, and have a desktop installed on several other computers I
administer.  3 x Wheezy, 2 x Jessie.  TDE, variously 14.0.3 and 3.5.13.2.
All shut down without a problem.
