Program Runs Slowly or Isn't Working Right
If a program is running slowly or otherwise isn't working right, the first thing you should try is closing the program and re-opening it.
You can also shut down your computer, wait a few seconds, and boot it up again. Some minor problems will work themselves out when you do this.
Check with the company for any known problems or updates to the software.
Program is Completely Unresponsive
If a program has become completely unresponsive, you can press (and hold) Control+Alt+Delete on your keyboard to open the Task Manager. You can then select the program that isn't working and click End Task. If you are using a Mac, you can press Option+Command+Esc to open a similar dialog box.
