Tips and Tricks
Upload pictures to your iDisk to create custom iCards
You can send iCards with your own custom pictures. Save your images as GIF or JPEG files
and then copy them to the Pictures folder on your iDisk. Your images will appear as picture
choices when you create an iCard in the Create Your Own section.
Start with a HomePage template to create your own Web page in minutes
HomePage has Web page templates that you can modify with your own text and images. For
example, teachers can use the HomePage education templates to post recent class news,
homework assignments, and other information for parents. You can also use the HomePage
photo album and iMovie templates to share your pictures and movies easily with your friends
and family.
Create an alias of your iDisk for easy access
Instead of connecting to the Web manually to open your iDisk, you can select the icon of
your iDisk and choose Make Alias from the File menu. Whenever you want to access your
iDisk, double-click the alias and enter your password.
Use KidSafe in conjunction with the Multiple Users control panel
Use the Multiple Users control panel to set up your computer for your entire family to share.
Then set up KidSafe for each of your children’s accounts.
