How to close an app that is glitched on MacBook I have a MacBook Pro and recently got Adobe Lightroom for small use and when the "rate the app" nonsense pulled up I said "no thanks" the app completely froze on me and couldn't click on anything and the rate notification didn't go away. It has been this way for weeks and it still won't do anything no matter how many times I click it. I have tried closing the app but I can't because the notification tab is open and can't click out of it. I also tried deleting it, but it said I can't because it's opened! I need help! I canceled by subscription in the mean time but even then it still hasn't done anything, I don't know what to do other than click "Hide Lightroom" in the top left corner, that's all I have done, I haven't restarted it because I feel like the app would still be open with the same issue. I don't know if anyone can help but it's a start.

The Preview app keeps freezing- The Preview app keeps freezing on my MacBook Pro M1. Are there any solutions? It happens whether it's a large or small file, or if multiple PDFs are open, etc.

Final Cut Pro not opening Whenever I open Final Cut Pro it just sits frozen and has an untitled project that doesn't show and I can't change any settings. I've tried deleting and reinstalling the app and nothing has worked. I'm on a 14" 2021 MacBook Pro on the latest Ventura update

Or secondary-click (control-click or two-finger click) on the app icon in the dock, press the option key then select Force Quit.
