6. Follow the instructions on the screen until a message

tells you that you’re finished. Remember to label each
disk with the name displayed on the screen. The name
will disappear as soon as the disk is ejected.

Be sure to follow the labeling instructions so you can find the
floppy disks again later.

7. Follow steps 2-6 again, but this time click the Copy all

Files button.

8. When you’re finished, be sure the floppy disks are

properly labeled and locked, then store them in a safe,
cool place.

As time goes by, you will store more information on your
computer. You should back up your hard disk at least once a
month. If you wish, you can purchase a backup program with
additional features that make copying faster. (For example, some
programs have a feature that lets you copy only the new and
changed information on your hard disk.)

If something happens to your hard disk

If something does happen to your hard disk, you can get all the
original information back from your backup floppy disks. To do
this, you use the PowerBook 145B Restore program that came
with your Macintosh. See the chapter on disks in the reference
section.
