see “Ethernet (10/100/1000Base-T)” on page 43 and “AirPort Extreme Wireless
Networking and Internet Access” on page 41 for more information about setting up an
Ethernet or AirPort connection. Also open Mac OS Help and search for “Ethernet” or

Keeping Your Software Up-to-Date
You can connect to the Internet and automatically download and install the latest free
software versions, drivers, and other enhancements from Apple.
When you are connected to the Internet, Software Update checks Apple’s Internet
servers to see if any updates are available for your computer. You can set your Mac to
check the Apple server periodically and download and install updated software.
To check for updated software:
1 Open System Preferences.
2 Click the Software Update icon and follow the directions on the screen.
 For more information, search for “Software Update” in Mac OS Help.
