freemannnn Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 is there a keyboard shortcut to hackintosh so you can restart or power off without going to apple menu. i read apple manual, but of course there is no eject or power button in my logitech keyboard.

Gringo Vermelho Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I conclude that you spent the last 52 minutes not googling "eject command OS X" Command + E according to this.

freemannnn Posted January 26, 2014 Author Share Posted January 26, 2014 i want to do this in hackintosh... i dont have a mac. Command-Control-power button Force the Mac to restart and this Command-Option-Control-Media Eject (⏏) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295598-keyboard-shortcut-to-power-off-restaurt/#findComment-1988749 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 My bad. Following the link I posted, according to Apple, the answer is no. Maybe you can use one of those key remapping or keyboard layout generator utilities to get what you want.

3.14r2 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 IMO pressing the power button should bring up a menu to shut down, sleep or restart. I don't remember though is it default behaviour or a DSDT patch is needed.

XanthraX Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Cmd+Ctrl+Eject forces the OS X to restart without any confirmation Cmd+Opt+Ctrl+Eject forces the OS X to shut down without any confirmation I don't know if > 5 sec pressed F12 is still Eject for PC keyboards, I have Apple keyboards to my both Hackintoshes Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295598-keyboard-shortcut-to-power-off-restaurt/#findComment-1989029 Share on other sites More sharing options...

freemannnn Posted January 27, 2014 Author Share Posted January 27, 2014 yes my keyboard is an logitech mx5000 and has no eject button. so i am asking if its possible to restart or shutdown the HACKINTOSH with keyboard shortcuts. in settings there is no shortcut for that. maybe an extra util?

XanthraX Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 F12 may replace Eject if is held 5 seconds. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295598-keyboard-shortcut-to-power-off-restaurt/#findComment-1989623 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringo Vermelho Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 That's true but I doubt that F12 will work as a substitution for the eject key in key combos.
