Mac Os X - Force Reboot

If your mac icon isn't working on the system menu, then here are 2 quick ways to achieve the same.

  1. Ctrl-Cmd-Eject works - does a force reboot.
  2. Open a terminal and type in:
sudo reboot
(sudo is required if you are not an admin)

or you can use
sudo shutdown -r  which is mentioned to be more gracious and other options.
