16 Chapter 1 Getting Started
2 Use your PowerBook trackpad to select and move items on the screen, much as you
use a mouse with a desktop computer.
 To move the arrow pointer on the screen, slide your finger across the trackpad.
Important: Use only one finger on the trackpad to move the pointer; the pointer
won’t move if you use two or more fingers on it. (The trackpad is designed to allow
scrolling when you use two adjoining fingers. See “Using the Trackpad” on page 24
for more information.)
Problems Turning the Computer On?
Nothing happens when you press the Power button.
 The battery may be drained. Make sure that you plugged the power adapter firmly
into both the computer and a power source. The plug should light when you plug
it into the computer.
 If the computer still doesn’t start up, see “Problems That Prevent You From Using
Your Computer” on page 63.
You see a picture of a disk or a folder with a blinking question mark.
 This icon usually means that the computer can’t find the system software on the
hard disk or any disks attached to the computer. Try restarting. Hold down the
Power button for 4 to 5 seconds until the computer turns off. Then press the Power
button again. If the problem persists, you may need to reinstall the system
software. See “Reinstalling the Software That Came With Your Computer” on
page 67.
