Hi,
My iMac (Catalina 10.15) stopped working.
The issue is, I have scheduled downloading files. The files have eaten up the memory in the iMac I suppose. So, I am not sure how to get the iMac to run.
I tried to reboot and pressed Command+R etc. Nothing happens.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards
SKB
 
Shutdown your iMac. After this, press and hold the Shift key. Once you see the Apple logo, release the Shift key. Try restarting your iMac now.
