install the card before the changes have any effect. To find out exactly what

CHAPTER 5-REFERENCE

This chapter provides instructions for using all the features of the Apple

IIe Card and the IIe Startup program.

This is a task-oriented reference chapter. That is, you don't need to read

its sections consecutively. When you need some specific information about

using the Apple IIe Card or the IIe Startup program, just look up the task

you want to accomplish and follow the step-by-step instructions you find

there.

!! IMPORTANT: If you haven't learned how to use the Apple IIe Card and the

IIe Startup program yet, you might prefer to go first through Chapter 3,

"Learning to Use the Apple IIe Card." Chapter 3 is a tutorial that guides you

step by step through some exercises in running Apple IIe programs on the

Macintosh LC. !!

Starting Up the IIe Startup Program

You must start up the IIe Startup program before you can run Apple IIe

programs on the Macintosh LC.

To start up the IIe Startup program, follow these steps:

Before you begin: Turn on your Macintosh LC. If your Macintosh is already

on, return to the Finder (either by quitting any programs you might be

running or by choosing Finder from the Application menu or the Apple menu).

1. Determine whether you are a floppy disk startup person or a hard disk

startup person.

How you set up the software in Chapter 2 determines whether you're a floppy

disk or a hard disk startup person. You may have recorded which you are on

the Quick Reference card in the back of the manual.

If you can't remember, here's how to tell:

- If you do not have a hard disk you are a floppy disk startup person.

- If you have a hard disk, open the System Folder by double-clicking it. If

the System Folder contains a file called "ProDOS File System," you are a hard

disk startup person. Otherwise, you are a floppy disk startup person. The

file may be inside the Extensions Folder within the System Folder.

2. If you are a floppy disk startup person, start up your Macintosh LC from

the IIe Startup Disk.

To start up from the disk, follow these steps: (a) choose Shut Down from the

Special menu, but don't turn the power off; (b) insert the IIe Startup Disk;

(c) use the mouse to click the Restart button.

3. Open your startup disk by double-clicking its icon.
