How can I close on an application?

I plugged an external hard drive to my new computer Windows 8 and playing an audio file, which opens the MUSIC app.  But now I want to disconnect the external computer hard drive, so I STOPPED the music (there is no STOP) and got down to 'probably delete the material and the media '.  Well, it won't let me not disconnect the external hard drive because it says that the device is in use.  There is no 'X' in the upper corner of the application to close them or end them or whatever it is and the ESC key does not work either.

So, HOW can I close an app?  Especially one that is accessing an external HD media because there is no way to disconnect the HD safely while the application is still running.

Thank you

Common problem.

You are dragging the top screen, then wear at bottom.

    Hi osenochen, some additions to the first response:

  • How can I close my account in Mozilla Thunderbird.

    How can I close my account in Mozilla Thunderbird.

    It's hard to do. There is no such thing as a Thunderbird account.
    E-mail accounts are established with the e-mail providers. You would close your account with your provider.
    If you ask how do I remove an account from the Thunderbird software on your computer, you go to the menu bar and select the tools-account settings
    Select the account to be deleted.
    Actions / delete account

    No menu bar? Press the ALT key.

    Before deleting an account of Thunderbird you must move all the messages you want to keep off that records of accounts and in a folder under local folders. Messages not moved to a local folder will disappear with the account when it is deleted.

  • How can I close only 1 session, without closing all sessions, when you run several at the same time?

    I run normally 2 sessions of Firefox. Currently I have 3 sessions running. How can I close only 1 session without closing all? When I choose "File" and then "Exit", all sessions nearby.

    Firefox does not work more 'sessions', you see several windows running in the same process. IE runs each window in its ' own process and Chrome runs each tab in its' own process, but Firefox running in a single process.

    Do not use file > outputis to completely close Firefox, do not close the window you are looking at when you use this command. There was formerly a command to close this window on the file menu, but who took a few versions ago. You will need to use the X in the upper right of the window to close this window and leave the other open windows. Or you can use {Ctrl + Maj + W} close the window that is to the point (where you look).
