To force quit an application, choose Force Quit from the Apple menu (or press Command-Option-Esc), then choose the unresponsive application in the Force Quit window, and click Force Quit.

Optionally, you may be able to Option-right click the application's icon in the Dock and choose Force Quit from the contextual menu.


If this is not an option, hold down the power button (5-10 seconds) until the mac shuts off and then restart.
