Hi i got a new Dual G4 and don't know how to restart the thing with out going to the apple menu all of the time....i know how to shutdown the mac with the keybord and how to put it to sleep...but don't know how to restart with the keybord.....all the tips are welcome.



And oh yeah this mac ROCKS! (I guess it rocks for anyone that has moved up from a 7300/180 PowerMac 604e :eek: <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> )

    Control Eject brings up the Shutdown Menu.



    That should do the trick. Hope that helps!

    In Help viewer do a search for "keyboard commands" or "shortcuts" to find a whole bunch of key control info for your favorite apps! You'll be surprised what some apps can do via the keyboard.

    That Control-Eject thing makes me laugh: a guy I know was whining that you couldn't shut down from the Pro Keyboard in an "I want my Power key back!" sort of way until I leaned over and hit the magic combo... <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />

    To answer your original question, here's some keyboard comands you can do.



    Control + Eject = brings up the sleep/restart/shut down dialog



    ⌘ + Control + Eject = Restart

    Also try ⌘ + Option + Shift + Eject



    ⌘ + Option + Eject = Sleep



    ⌘ + Shift + Q = Logout

    Steve doesn't want us to shut our Macs down in the first place.
