If the keyboard cable isn’t long enough, use the keyboard extension cable that came

with your Mac Pro.

Using a Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

If you purchased an Apple Wireless Keyboard and Mouse with your Mac Pro, follow the

instructions that came with the keyboard and mouse to set them up.

Step 6:

Turn on your Mac Pro

Press the power (®

) button on the front of your Mac Pro to turn it on. If your display

must be turned on separately, turn it on by pressing its power button.

Step 7:

Use Setup Assistant

The first time you turn on your Mac Pro, Setup Assistant starts. Setup Assistant helps

you enter your Internet and email information and set up a user account on your

Mac Pro. If you already have a Mac, Setup Assistant can help you automatically transfer

files, applications, and other information from your previous Mac to your new Mac Pro.

Step 8:

Customize Your Desktop and Set Your Preferences

You can quickly make your desktop look the way you want using System Preferences.

Choose Apple (

) > System Preferences from the menu bar. As you get to know your

Mac Pro, explore System Preferences—it’s your command center for most computer

and display settings. For more information, open Mac Help and search for “System

Preferences” or for the specific preference you want to change.
