Tips for using Macintosh Guide

Here are a few tips for using Macintosh Guide effectively:

m Macintosh Guide is available only when you are in the Finder—the desktop

area where you can see the icons of disks, folders, and files. (Other
programs may also have help available in the Guide menu, however.) If you
don’t see Macintosh Guide in the Guide menu, pull down the Application
menu (to the right of the Guide menu) and choose Finder.

m Follow the steps when you’re instructed to; don’t skip ahead or read ahead.

That way the computer can check to make sure you’ve done a step correctly.

m Unlike most windows, the Macintosh Guide window stays in front of other

windows on the screen so that your instructions are never covered. If you
need to move the Guide window out of the way, drag it by the title bar at the
top of the window.

You can also move the window out of the way by clicking the zoom box.
Click the box once to shrink the window; click it a second time to expand
the window to its original size.

m If you need more information about an instruction or a term, click the

button labeled “Huh?” to get further explanation. (The “Huh?” button is
dimmed when no additional information is available.)

m If you want to return to the main Macintosh Guide window, click the Topics

button in the lower-left corner of the Guide window.

m When you’re finished using Macintosh Guide, click the close box in the

upper-left corner of the window.
