Client Management: Mac OS 9 and OS 8 473
You can create a folder called “Other Applications•” and then put the Applications folder
(and all of its contents) inside. The Other Applications• folder must reside in the client
computer’s Applications folder. If the client computer is running Mac OS 9.1 or later, the
Applications folder is called “Applications (Mac OS 9).”
Users Can’t Drag and Drop Between Applications
In most cases, Macintosh Manager does not allow the drag-and-drop feature. Use the Copy
and Paste commands instead.
Users Can’t Open Files From a Web Page
Sometimes Web browsers rely on helper applications to open files that the browser itself
cannot handle (for example, media files or PDF files).
1 In Macintosh Manager, click Computers, and then click Security.
2 Select “Open applications, such as helper applications.”
Sometimes the Right Application Doesn’t Open for Users
If the wrong application opens when a user tries to open a document, try rebuilding the
client computer’s desktop.
