Apple 8600 Personal Computer User Manual


 
Using the Tools application
The Tools application is located in the Iomega Tools folder on the CD-ROM
disc that came with your computer. You can use it to erase Zip disks, set
read/write protection options for Zip disks, and set other options.
The read/write protection features in the Tools application let you do the
following:
m Write-protect a Zip disk to prevent anyone from overwriting critical data.
When a disk is write-protected, no one can write files to the disk.
m Write-protect a Zip disk and assign a password that must be used to remove
the write protect.
m Read-protect a Zip disk so that it cannot be read from, or written to, unless
the user enters the password you assign. (Use this option when you want to
protect sensitive information.)
For complete information about the Tools application, refer to the online help
and online manuals in the Iomega Tools folder.
IMPORTANT
Do not forget your password, particularly for a read-protected
disk. If you forget a password for a read-protected disk, the data on the disk
cannot be recovered, even by Apple or Iomega.
