Tips for using Mac OS Guide
Here are a few tips for using Mac OS Guide effectively:
• Mac OS Guide is available only when you are in the Finder—
the desktop area where you can see the icons of disks,
folders, and files. If you do not see Mac OS Guide in the
Guide menu, pull down the Application menu (to the right
of the Guide menu) and choose Finder.
• Follow the steps when you are instructed. Do not skip ahead
or read ahead. That way the computer can check to make
sure you have done a step correctly.
• Unlike most windows, the Mac OS 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.
• 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.)
• If you want to return to the main Mac OS Guide window,
click the Topics or (
T
) button in the lower-left corner of the
Guide window.
• When you are finished using Mac OS Guide, click the close
box in the upper-left corner of the window.
