Well, here are four ways (as documented in more detail by [https://www.macobserver.com/tips/how-to/force-restart-or-shut-down-a-mac-computer/ MacObserver])<br /> <br /> # The power button<br /> # A keyboard shortcut<br /> # The Apple menu<br /> # Via the terminal<br /> <br /> === The power button ===<br /> <br /> * Press and hold the Power button for 10+ seconds and the system will turn off. Release the power button and wait a few seconds.
