If it is not open, open it now.

2. If your computer has only one floppy disk drive (one slot to insert

disks), eject the System Startup disk. If you have two floppy disk drives,

skip to step 3.

Here's how to eject a disk:

- If it is not already selected, click the System Startup disk icon to select

it.

- Choose Eject from the File menu

- When the disk pops out of the drive remove it from the computer.

3. Insert a blank floppy disk into a disk drive.

You can use the disk you prepared in Chapter 5. Or, if you haven't already

prepared a disk for use, you can do so now by following the instructions in

Chapter 5.

You can use any empty disk drive as long as you remember not to put a 1.4 MB

disk into an 800K drive. Your internal floppy disk drive is a 1.4 MB drive.

4. Find the Camping Ad icon in the System Startup disk directory window.

You may need to open the System Startup disk icon.

disk icon).

Here's how:

- Position the pointer over the Camping Ad icon.

- Press and hold the mouse button.

- Drag the Camping Ad icon to the floppy disk icon.

- When the tip of the pointer is on the floppy disk icon, the disk icon

becomes highlighted. When this happens, stop moving the mouse and release the

mouse button.

The floppy disk icon becomes highlighted to let you know that you have "hit

the target." When you release the mouse button, the Macintosh begins placing

a copy of the Camping Ad document on the floppy disk. The original Camping Ad

is still on the System Startup disk.

If you have only one floppy disk drive, the computer may eject one disk and

ask you to insert another. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete

the copy.

If you wanted to copy additional items onto the floppy disk, you would simply
