<p><b>New page</b></p><div>How can you shut down your Mac when the system doesn't seem to want to turn off? 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. Press the power button briefly and the system will turn back on.<br />
<br />
=== A keyboard shortcut ===<br />
<br />
* Press and hold the four keys '''Contro'''l + '''Option''' + '''Command''' + the '''Power''' button for a moment, then release them all at the same time. This key combo attempts to safely shut down all running applications, then shuts the machine down.<br />
* Hold '''Control''' + '''Command''' + the '''Power''' button until the system shuts off. Release all the keys and wait a few moments. Press the power button again to turn the computer back on.<br />
<br />
=== The Apple menu ===<br />
<br />
# Click on the '''Apple menu''' at the top left of the screen<br />
# Select '''Shut down...'''<br />
# Once the computer turns off, please the Power button to turn it back on<br />
<br />
=== Via the terminal ===<br />
<br />
# Press '''Control''' + '''Space''' to open the Mac Spotlight Search feature<br />
# Type '''Terminal''' and press enter to open the terminal<br />
#* Alternatively, you can choose '''Terminal''' from the '''Applications -> Utilities''' menu<br />
# At the terminal prompt, type the following (the % mark is the terminal prompt - type everything following that):<br />
#* <code>% sudo shutdown -r now</code><br />
#* Press '''Enter'''<br />
# After the computer powers off, press the Power button to restart the computer.</div>TUF raw admin
