Move the hidden contents of a window into view

As you work with your computer, you’ll encounter windows
containing more than you can view on the screen at one time. You
can view contents that are out of sight, as described in the
following steps.

1. Check that the Macintosh HD window is active, then

click the System Folder to select it.

Make sure that the icon is highlighted, which means that
it’s selected.

2. Point to the File menu title in the menu bar.

3. Press to pull down the File menu.

4. Drag to the Open command so it becomes highlighted,

and then release the trackball button.

When you choose the Open command, the System Folder
icon opens into a window (the System Folder window).

You should now have three windows on your Macintosh
desktop: the Macintosh HD window, the Trash window, and
the System Folder window. (One or more of these windows
may be covered by the others.) The System Folder window is
the active window because you opened the System Folder
most recently.

5. Point to the size box in the lower-right corner of the

System Folder window.
