The quit command will not work when you open the applications folder because 
you can't quit the finder. To close a window in the finder such as the 
applications window, press command w. In any case, this is strange. Did you 
turn vo on with fn command f5? Depending on your configuration you might need 
to press the fn key in your laptop. Somehow people keep muting vo without 
wanting to, but this never happened to me...
