Apple Macintosh LC 630 DOS - Manual (Page 23)

Learning the basics
If you are new to the Macintosh, you should begin by looking at the easy-to-
use program called the Macintosh Tutorial. The tutorial teaches you the basic
skills you’ll need to use your computer in the Macintosh environment. To
start the tutorial, follow these steps:
1 Slide the mouse along your mouse pad or desk.
Hold the mouse as shown, with the cable pointing away from you. Don’t press
the mouse button (under your index finger). Notice that the arrow (8) on the
screen moves in the same direction that you move the mouse.
If the arrow doesn’t move, make sure that the cables connecting the mouse
and keyboard are secure and that your mouse is positioned as shown in the
illustration.
2 Move the tip of the arrow ( 8 ) to the question mark ( h ) in the upper-right portion of the
screen.
If you run out of room on your mouse pad or desk while moving the mouse,
pick up the mouse and place it where there’s more room. (The arrow on the
screen moves only when the mouse is in contact with the mouse pad or desk.)
3 With the tip of the arrow on the question mark, press and hold down the mouse button.
A list of choices (called a menu) appears. This is the Guide (h) menu, which
is the place to go when you have a question about how to use your computer
in the Macintosh environment (Mac OS). (The Guide [h] menu is not
available when you’re in the PC environment.)
