I don't know why I didn't SEE the darn words Force Quit! I did try Opt/Cmd/Esc, but that did'nt woik. Maybe because it should be Cmd/Opt/Esc!!

Tell ya this: I've been work'n too hard. (I'm retired).

Chrlz-Glad you're here!

To force quit an application, from the Apple menu, choose Force Quit... . Then select the misbehaving application from the list, and click the Force quit button. Alternatively, you can also bring up this window by pressing Cmd-Option-Esc

Cmd is the Apple key

Also, in case that doesn't work, here is an entire page devoted to "When Force Quit Doesn't Work".

2007 / Mail Deliveries

« on: April 15, 2007, 12:27:35 PM »

This is a second annoyance that I'm having with my new iMac. Backround; I still have not imported files from my old Mac so my old Mac continues to be up and running next to my new iMac. Both are connected via ethernet and router. I receive email faster on the old machine and I sometimes do NOT receive email on the new Mac. For example I did not receive on this iMac Mail a Digest from another Dicussion group to which I belong, yet it was delivered as usual on the old Mac. I sent a test message to myself and received it fine and I received a TechSurvivor message on the iMac at 12:54; On the old Mac its 12:51. No big deal, but I've received six other messages on the old Mac and have yet to receive them on the new Mac. Yes, I clicked Get Mail.

Somthings going on and I'm reluctant to transfer files to this new machine intill I'm confident all the kinks are worked out.

Any ideas here?

Regards,

Chrlz

To the LIST,

 I've had my iMac for two weeks now and have some problems with it. I will explain the one here that is consistent with the Message Title . This is an open App that is frozen and it will not Quit! The Mac will not shut down unless the app is closed. It is a Flickr Uploader Application that halted and froze while uploading photos. I have not received any info from Flickr (as of yet) regarding this problem. I welcome any recommendations here to get this thing to 'Quit'. Maybe a Command line in Terminal would help, but don't know any Unix, Darwin, or whatever.

Regards,
Chrlz
