Before You Install
Before you begin installation, register your new software and turn off virus protection. You
may also need to update your system software.
Registering Your Software
Register your copy of AppleWorks at the following Web site:
register.apple.com/
Or complete and mail the product registration card included in your package.
Turning Off Virus Protection
Some virus-protection programs may conflict with the AppleWorks Installer. Before you install
AppleWorks, turn off any virus-protection programs. See the documentation that came with
your virus-protection software for more information.
After you complete the installation, you can turn virus protection back on.
Updating Your System Software if Necessary
If you use certain versions of Mac OS, Apple recommends that you update your system
software with the appropriate updates, provided on the AppleWorks CD:
m Mac OS 8.0 should be updated to Mac OS 8.1.
m Mac OS 8.5 or 8.5.1 should be updated to Mac OS 8.6.
m All versions of Mac OS 9.0 should be updated to Mac OS 9.1.
Installing AppleWorks
You have two options for installing AppleWorks on your hard disk:
m Easy (complete) installation is recommended. The Installer installs the entire
AppleWorks package.
m Custom installation lets you choose the files you install.
AppleWorks is installed in a folder named AppleWorks 6. If you have previous versions of
ClarisWorks or AppleWorks, the Installer will not remove any of your existing documents.
Important
If you upgrade to Mac OS X after installing AppleWorks 6.1 on Mac OS 9.0 or
earlier, you must reinstall AppleWorks.
