Where to find answers
When you have questions about using your Macintosh, there are several
places where you can look for answers.
In the Guide menu
The Guide menu (marked with the
h
icon) is your main source of
information about the Macintosh. To learn how to get different kinds
of help from the Guide menu, see Chapter 2 in this book.
In this book
Use this book to help you set up your computer and learn about it,
or to find solutions to problems with your equipment.
In other manuals
Some of the programs that already came installed on your
computer have separate manuals. Most of these manuals came in
the box with your computer. Some come online. (You can find them
as clickable buttons in the Applications section of the Launcher,
next to their application buttons.) For answers to questions about
other equipment or about application programs you have
purchased, see the manuals that came with the equipment or
programs.
From the Read Me files in the Apple Extras folder
The Apple Extras folder (in your System Folder) on your hard disk
contains SimpleText documents, called About Apple Extras with
important information about some of the application programs
included with your computer. Similar files called Read Me files can
also be found inside application folders and in the Documents folder
on your desktop.
From Apple’s customer support hotline
If you can’t find an answer in any of the materials provided, call the
customer support hotline. The phone number for the hotline is in the
service and support information that came with your computer.
Note:
If you have problems with an application program not
published by Apple, call the program’s publisher. Click the Phone
Numbers button in the Service/Support area of the Launcher to get
a software publisher’s phone number.
