A User Tip Authored by TheLittles of the Apple Support Community:
Accessing your Mac when Something is Not Responding
When you are using an application, and it begins not responding, hold down command and keep tapping tab until you get to Finder (the smileyface).
Once in Finder you will be able to access your Mac, as need be.
