Switching to the Apple IIe environment
You enter the Apple IIe environment simply by double-clicking an icon, as
shown in this exercise.
Before you begin: Your Macintosh should be turned on and you should quit any
programs you might be running. Close any windows on your desktop.
1. If you're a floppy disk startup person, make sure you've started up from
the IIe Startup Disk.
See the instructions in "Starting Up From the IIe Startup Disk," at the
beginning of this chapter.
2. Open your startup disk by double-clicking its icon.
3. Double-click the IIe Startup icon.
In a few moments, you see an Apple IIe screen with a BASIC prompt and a

Congratulations! You've turned your Macintosh LC into an Apple IIe. Once you
double-click the IIe Startup program, your Macintosh LC is in the Apple IIe
environment: Now the computer behaves as if it were an Apple IIe.
You'll learn more about the Apple IIe environment later in this chapter, but

Switching back to the Macintosh environment
Follow these steps to return to the Macintosh environment:

2. Click the Quit IIe button.
