1 Setting Up Congratulations on your purchase of a Macintosh computer! In this all-in-one computer , Apple has integrated a T rinitron ® monitor for exceptional color quality , reduced the number of cables, and moved controls to the front for easy access.
Plugging in the computer Plug in the Macintosh before connecting anything to it. The plug grounds the computer and protects it from electrical damage while you are setting up. S Important: To protect both yourself and the computer from electrical hazards, the computer should remain turned off until you are finished connecting its parts.
s Wa r ning: This equipment is intended to be electrically grounded. Y our Macintosh is equipped with a three-wire grounding plug—a plug that has a third (grounding) pin.
T urning on your computer for the first time In order to start up, your computer must have special software (called system software) installed on the hard disk. Y our computer may have this software already installed. To see if your hard disk already has system sof tware installed, follow these two steps to turn on your computer .
What you see after you tur n on your computer depends on whether system software has already been installed on your hard disk. If your screen looks like the one below , with a small, labeled picture (icon) at the top right, then system software has already been installed and your computer is ready to use.
P roblems starting up? If you don ’t see anything on the screen, check these items to see if you can identify the problem: n Is the computer firmly plugged into a power source? If it is plugged into.
Be sure that you always do the following: n Keep your Macintosh away from sources of liquids, such as wash basins, bathtubs, shower stalls, and so on. n Protect your Macintosh from dampness or wet weather , such as rain, snow , and so on. n Read all the installation instructions carefully before you plug your Macintosh into a wall socket.
Musculoskeletal discomfort As with any activity that involves sitting for long periods of time, using a computer can make your muscles sore and stiff . T o minimize these effects, set up your work environment carefully , using the guidelines that follow , and take frequent breaks to rest tired muscles.
Eye fatigue Eye fatigue can occur whenever the eyes are focused on a nearby object for a long time. This problem occurs because the eye muscles must work harder to view an object that’s closer than about 20 feet (6 meters). Improper lighting can hasten the development of eye fatigue.
n P osition your mouse at the same height as your keyboard. Allow adequate space to use the mouse comfortably . n Arrange the computer so the top of the screen is slightly below your eye level when you’re sitting at the keyboard.
n Allow adequate workspace so that you can use your keyboard and mouse comfortably . Place papers or other items so you can view them easily while using your computer . A document stand may make reading papers more comfortable. n Eye muscles must work harder to focus on nearby objects.
The Macintosh comes with a tour and a tutorial to help you start using your computer as quickly as possible. n The Macintosh Basics tour teaches the most basic skills you need to master before you can use your computer .
2. Notice that the arrow ( 8 ) moves in the direction you move the mouse. If the arrow doesn ’t move on the screen, make sure that the cable connecting the mouse to the keyboard is secure and that your mouse is positioned as shown in the picture. (Don ’t disconnect the cable while your computer is on; you could damage your equipment.
4. Being careful not to move the mouse, click the mouse button twice in quick succession . Now your screen should look like the picture shown in this step. If it doesn ’t, tr y steps 3 and 4 again, paying special attention to the following: n Make sure the tip of the arrow is touching the picture, not the words beneath it.

T o use these buttons to increase or decrease the volume of the sounds your Macintosh plays: n Press the button on the top to make the sound louder .
Using the built-in microphone Y our Macintosh comes with a built-in microphone to record live sounds. The microphone is highly sensitive. Once you’ve turned it on (which you do with a sound-recording program), it can pick up sounds within a range of several feet.

The buttons remain off until you turn them on again (by clicking the Disable Buttons box to remove the “X ”). v By the way : If you want to use a password to control access to the Button Disabler control panel, consider using At Ease, an application program available through an Apple-authorized dealer .
25 Installing an expansion card The Macintosh comes with a slot inside called a processor -direct slot in which you can install a processor -direct expansion card for special purposes. Some expansion cards are designed so that you can install them yourself.
5. Place your thumbs on the two plastic tabs on the back panel of the computer . 6. Press down on the tabs and pull gently until the back panel opens. 7.
Y ou’ll need to hook your fingers around the little metal boxes to pull the logic board. 9. Remove the processor -direct expansion car d from its static-proof bag. Hold the card by its top edge to avoid touching the connector on the bottom of the card.
