I'm playing Sim City 4 and I tried a lot of combinations but I can't minimize it. I tried Cmd+Tab, Cmd+m,Cmd+h,Cmd+w and nothing.. help please !
 
Most games can't be minimized. If it doesn't tell you how in the docs, then it probably can't be done.

Sometimes the PC key combinations work. Try something like Alt-Tab (Option-Tab) or Ctrl-Escape. Or how about Cmd-F for fullscreen?

Is there a way to load it into a window to start with? If so, check in the menu bars at the top to see if there a key combination you can use.
 
Press and Hold the OPTION key, then Open the game. A SimCity 4 Preferences menu will open. Check the box "Play in window". Then Click OK.
