Run either Process Viewer (in your Applications\Utilities folder) or the
Terminal command "top -u" (without the quotes) to identify the PID or
Process ID number. If you run Process Viewer, you can Quit the highlighted
process from the menu. Or, in Terminal, type "sudo kill 1234" (without the
quotes), substituting the desired PID for "1234". The Terminal will prompt
you to enter your password.

Another alternative is to Force Quit the app by pressing Cmd-Opt-Esc, and
highlighting the desired app.
