    OOPs, here it is!

     

    OK, so alt + eject works sometimes.

     

    Do you have another Keyboard to test with?

     

    Control+Eject, (F12), may bring up the Restart/Shutdown Dialog box and the 1st letter of each will select that button.

     

    Command+Option+esc = Bring up Force Quit window

     

    Command+Control+eject = Restart immediately

     

    Command+Option+Control+eject = Shutdown immediately

     

    Command+Control+power button = Force restart

     

    Might try this...

     

    >On your main hard drive, dig down into System > Library > CoreServices > Menu Extras. Inside that window, double-click on the icon called Eject.menu.
