Tips for Using Macintosh Guide
Here are a few tips for using the Macintosh Guide effectively:
■
The Macintosh Guide is available only from the Finder.
■
When you work in an application, the Guide menu may offer
information for that specific application.
■
Unlike most windows, Guide windows stay at the front of the
screen so that instructions are always visible. 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. (The zoom box is the small square box at the top-right hand
corner of the window.) Click the box once to shrink the window;
click it a second time to expand the window to its original size.
■
To close the window, click the close box in the upper left corner of
the window.
■
Follow the steps as instructed so the computer can check to make
sure you’ve done a step correctly. Do not skip or read ahead.
■
Click the “Huh?” button for more information about an instruction
or a term. (The “Huh?” button is dimmed if additional information
is not available.)
■
To return to the main Macintosh Guide window, click the Topics
button in the lower left corner of the Guide window.
Identifying Objects on the Screen
You can use a Mac OS feature known as Balloon Help to identify
unfamiliar items on your screen. Balloon Help explains the function of
icons, menus, commands, and other items on the Macintosh screen in
balloons — like those you see in comic strips.
