You can also restart the computer using the Restart command.

m Choose Restart from the Special menu.

If the word “Special” does not appear at the top of the screen, you’re working
in the wrong program. Choose Finder from the Application menu.

When you choose Restart, the computer prompts you to save your work,
closes all open programs, and restarts itself.

Restarting using either of the methods outlined above does not affect your
RAM disk (if you created one) or its contents.

Trouble? If a problem with the computer prevents you from using the Power
key or choosing Restart—for example, if the computer “freezes” so that the
pointer does not respond to the trackpad—you can turn off the computer by
presssing the reset button (marked with an I) on the back of the computer.
Use this method only if you cannot click Shut Down or Restart in the dialog
box that appears when you press the Power key, or if you cannot choose either
command from the Special menu.
