The eject key is 1 key to the right on the mac laptop keyboard. I learned of this I believe through the apple manu when they did the keystrokes there at one time, 2 years ago. It is a nice way to shut down. Just hit control cmd option eject to shot down, cmd option eject to sleep and control cmd eject to reboot.

Take care.

Hello Gordon and all yes this is very useful indeed and thanks. That's amazing there are keystrokes to shut down and restart the system. So where is the eject key then please on a Macbook? Thanks!

Hi Chris

My only suggestion is that you can feel the fan and HD activity until your machine is shut down. No, VoiceOver often goes down some time before the machine because the OS does a bit of housekeeping before it closes. If you use the system shortcut, "Command+Option+Control+Eject", unless there are operating system windows open which require user intervention, your machine will usually shut down of its own accord. If you use the system shortcut "Command+Control+Eject", the machine will usually restart of its own accord unless there are user windows open which require intervention. Sometimes, even those windows are closed by the operating system. An example of one which usually does not close is iTunes prompting you to enter information.

I hope some of that was useful.

Gordon

Well, if that is the case, how on earth do we know if the Mac is shutting down? Does VoiceOver stay until it is about to be turned off? Kind of like how iOS devices do it? Thanks!

Yeah that'd be nice. That was one of the things that I noticed that
was different from windows. But sadly, I don't think there is.
