Hello,



I left my mac on for one hour and when I moved my cursor all it showed me was a black screen with a cursor. I have a warranty but should I use it. Or is there a way to fix this. I am trying to shut it down by running out the battery. It has been one day and nothing has happend.

try hitting 'alt' 'command' 'esc' simultaneously to see if there is an individual program that's not responding and holding up the screen's refresh.
if not that, then just press down and hold down on the manual power button for a few seconds. the system will power down. give it a moment or two and then reboot.
