I can't close Skype.

I can't close Skype. I tried task manager, restarting the computer (it won't because Skype is open), dragging to trash (it won't because it is open). Help.

VIN, MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2010)

And, of course, if all the above fails, you can force the Mac to shut off. Save ALL your other files, docs, etc., quit all other programs, tap on the Caps Lock so the LED lights up, then press and hold the power button till the Caps Lock LED turns off and all is silent.


To be on the safe side, I'd run Disk Utility and do a First Aid on the drive in case Skype left cruft behind. Details are OS-specific so if you need help, holler back with what OS X flavor you have.
