Learning the basics

If you are new to the Macintosh, you should begin by looking at the
easy-to-use program called the Performa Tutorial. The two-part tutorial
teaches you the basic skills you’ll need to use your computer. To start the
tutorial, follow these steps:

1

Slide your 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 mouse so that the arrow is over the button labeled “Performa Tutorial.”

If you don’t see the picture for the Performa Tutorial on your screen, put the
arrow on the word “Learning” and click (press and release) the mouse button.
