If you’d like to listen to music while you work, insert a music CD in your optical drive.

also connect headphones with a minijack to the headphone port of your iBook G4 for
private listening right away. To learn more about iTunes, open Mac OS Help and choose

Keeping Your Software Up to Date
You can connect to the Internet and automatically download and install the latest free

When you are connected to the Internet, Software Update checks Apple’s Internet
servers to see if any updates are available for your computer. You can set your Mac to
check the Apple server periodically and download and install updated software.
Warning: Listening to music at high volume over extended periods of time can
damage your hearing.
