Hi it`s me again,

I just found out that if you press Shift and apple menu, the force quit option is changing to

force quit +application name which is selected.

So if Firefox is not responding and you press shift+ open apple menu, you will see an option Force Firefox Quit or something like this. You can also try, but i`m sure this was mentioned before, to hit ALT+ Apple Menu and you will see other helpful Commands.

I hope this helped anyone.

Bye

Precipitate works by creating files on your machine that are imported by Spotlight, then periodically checking in with the server and updating the local files to reflect any changes. Note that changes may take up to an hour to be visible in local searches.
