[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1921972, member: 110816"] All apps can be closed cleanly with CMD+q or File->Quit. "Force quit" is thing on the Mac whereby you would forcibly kill an application that fails to cleanly quit. You'll see this by either getting a spinning rainbow on any open windows or the icon in the Dock and if you right-click on the icon in the Dock you'll see the words "Application not responding". In this situation, you'll have to launch Activity Monitor and you'll see the offending app highlighted in red. You can then select it and click the (x) button on top to nuke it. This should be a rare case though. [/QUOTE]
