If an application seems to be “hanging,” you may Force Quit the application by pressing
Command + Option+ Esc or select Force Quit… from the Apple menu. On the Apple menu
you will also find the command for Log Out; this is a new command in OS X. Since OS X is a
multi-user operating system, you can have multiple users at one Mac. This command allows
you to switch users without restarting or shutting down the Mac.
You may also access the Dock Preferences in the Apple menu where you can control the size
of the Dock, turning on or off magnification, the position of the Dock on the screen, and other
effects.

Where’s the Finder?
Can’t find the Finder? In Mac OS X the Finder is at the top LEFT of the Desktop rather than the
top RIGHT as it was in OS 9. Select File > New Finder Window or Command + N
(Note: In OS
9, Command + N generated a new folder; the New Folder command is now Shift + Command
+ N.) A new way in Panther to create a folder is to Control-click or Right-click on the Desktop
and select New Folder from the contextual menu.
