Connecting the mouse and keyboard

The way you connect the mouse and keyboard depends on whether the
keyboard has a separate cable or a built-in cable.

Connecting a keyboard with a separate cable

1

Plug the mouse cable into the port on either side of the keyboard.

Most right-handed people prefer to use the mouse with their right hand; most
left-handed people prefer to use their left hand. Plug the mouse into the port
on the side you prefer.

The plug and the port are marked with the ◊ icon (symbol). Align the icons
before you insert the plug. (The positions of the port and icon on your
keyboard may be different from those pictured here.)

By the way: A port marked with the ◊ icon is called an Apple Desktop Bus
(ADB) port.

2

Plug the keyboard cable (both ends are the same) into the other port on the keyboard.

3

Plug the keyboard cable into the port marked with the

icon on the back of the

computer.
