 MP3 Variable Bit Rate (VBR)
 WAV
 AA (texte lu audible.com, formats 2, 3 et 4)
 AIFF
Un morceau encodé au format Apple Lossless possède la même qualité sonore qu’un
CD tout en occupant deux fois moins d’espace qu’un morceau encodé au format AIFF
ou WAV. Le même morceau encodé au format AAC ou MP3 utilise encore moins de
place. Quand vous importez de la musique depuis un CD à l’aide d’iTunes, elle est
convertie par défaut au format AAC.

exposées ci-dessous, ainsi que le mode d’emploi, avant d’utiliser l’iPod shuffle.
AVERTISSEMENT : ne pas suivre les présentes consignes de sécurité pourrait provoquer
un incendie, un choc électrique ou un autre dommage.32 Chapitre 6 Sécurité et manipulation
Utilisation de l’adaptateur secteur iPod USB Power Adapter (disponible séparément)
Si vous utilisez l’adaptateur secteur iPod USB Power Adapter (vendu séparément sur
www.apple.com/fr/ipodstore) pour recharger l’iPod shuffle, assurez-vous que l’adaptateur secteur est correctement assemblé avant de le brancher sur une prise de courant.

 Vous pensez que l’adaptateur doit être réparé.
 Vous voulez nettoyer l’adaptateur.
Prévention de la diminution de l’acuité auditive Vous risquez une perte d’audition
irréparable si vous utilisez un casque ou des écouteurs à volume sonore élevé. Réglez le
volume à un niveau raisonnable. Vous pouvez vous habituer petit à petit à un volume
de son plus élevé qui peut vous paraître normal mais entraîner une détérioration de
votre audition. Si vos oreilles bourdonnent ou si les sons vous semblent sourds, arrêtez
l’écoute et rendez-vous chez votre médecin pour vérifier votre audition. Plus le volume
est élevé, plus vous risquez d’abîmer rapidement votre audition. Les spécialistes de
l’audition suggèrent de protéger votre audition de la façon suivante :
 Évitez au maximum d’écouter de la musique via des écouteurs ou un casque à un
volume élevé.
 Évitez de monter le son pour filtrer les bruits extérieurs.
 Baissez le son si vous n’entendez pas ce que disent les gens à côté de vous.
Pour en savoir plus sur la manière de définir un volume maximum sur l’iPod shuffle,
consultez la section « Définition d’une limite de volume » à la page 21.
Informations Importantes
A pleine puissance, l’écoute prolongée du baladeur peut endommager
l’oreille de l’utilisateur.Chapitre 6 Sécurité et manipulation 33
Utilisation d’un casque d’écoute en toute sécurité L’utilisation des écouteurs n’est
pas recommandée lorsque vous conduisez et constitue par ailleurs une infraction au
code de la route dans certains endroits. Soyez prudent et attentif au volant. Cessez
d’utiliser l’iPod shuffle si vous vous rendez compte que cela vous distrait ou vous
dérange lorsque vous conduisez un véhicule ou lorsque vous réalisez tout autre
activité nécessitant toute votre attention.
Informations importantes sur la manipulation
Transport de l’iPod shuffle Les composants de l’iPod shuffle sont délicats. Ne tordez,
n’écrasez ni ne laissez pas tomber l’iPod shuffle.
Utilisation des connecteurs et des ports Ne forcez jamais un connecteur à entrer dans
un port. Vérifiez que rien ne bloque l’entrée au port. Si le connecteur et le port ne
s’assemblent pas facilement, c’est probablement parce qu’ils ne sont pas compatibles.
Assurez-vous que le connecteur est compatible avec le port et que vous l’avez positionné correctement par rapport à ce dernier.
Conservation de l’iPod shuffle à température normale Utilisez toujours l’iPod shuffle
dans des endroits où la température se situe entre 0º et 35º C. Dans des conditions de
basses températures, l’autonomie de l’iPod peut diminuer temporairement.
Rangez l’iPod shuffle dans un endroit où la température est toujours comprise entre
-20º et 45º C. La température dans les voitures en stationnement pouvant dépasser
cette fourchette, ne laissez pas l’iPod shuffle dans votre voiture.
Lorsque vous utilisez l’iPod shuffle ou rechargez sa batterie, il est normal que l’iPod shuffle
chauffe. L’extérieur de l’iPod shuffle sert en effet de surface de refroidissement et transfère
la chaleur de l’intérieur de l’appareil vers l’extérieur, où l’air est moins chaud.
Nettoyage de la partie externe de l’iPod shuffle Pour nettoyer l’iPod shuffle, retirez-le
du socle et éteignez-le. Utilisez ensuite un chiffon doux, légèrement humide et non
pelucheux. Évitez toute pénétration d’humidité dans les orifices de l’appareil. N’utilisez
pas de produits pour le nettoyage des vitres, de produits d’entretien ménager, d’aérosols, de solvants, d’alcool, d’ammoniac ni d’abrasifs pour nettoyer l’iPod shuffle.

Important Product
Information GuideThis Important Product Information Guide contains safety and handling,
regulatory, software license, and warranty information for iPhone.
Look for recycling, disposal, and other environmental information in the
iPhone User Guide at:??support.apple.com/manuals/iphone
±To avoid injury, read all operating instructions and the following
safety information before using iPhone. For detailed operating
instructions, read the iPhone User Guide on your iPhone by
visiting help.apple.com/iphone or using the iPhone User Guide
bookmark in Safari. For downloadable versions of the latest
iPhone User Guide and this Important Product Information Guide,
visit:??support.apple.com/manuals/iphone
Important Safety and Handling Information
WARNING:??Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in fire,
electric shock, or other injury or damage to iPhone or other property.
Carrying and Handling iPhone iPhone contains sensitive components.
Do not drop, disassemble, microwave, burn, paint, or insert foreign objects
into iPhone. Do not use iPhone if it has been damaged—for example, if
iPhone is cracked, punctured, or damaged by water.
The front and back covers of iPhone are made of glass. This glass could
break if iPhone is dropped on a hard surface, is subjected to a substantial
impact, or is crushed, bent, or deformed. If the glass chips or cracks, do not
touch or attempt to remove the broken glass. Stop using iPhone until the
glass is replaced by Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. Glass
cracked due to misuse or abuse is not covered under the warranty.
If you are concerned about scratching or abrasion, use a case, sold
separately.
Keeping the Outside of iPhone Clean Clean iPhone immediately if it
comes into contact with any contaminants that may cause stains—for
example, ink, dyes, makeup, dirt, food, oils, and lotions. To clean iPhone,
unplug all cables and turn off iPhone (press and hold the On/Off button,
and then slide the onscreen slider). Then use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free
cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don’t use window cleaners,
household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives
to clean iPhone. The front glass surface has an oleophobic coating. To
remove fingerprints, simply wipe these surfaces with a soft, lint-free
cloth. The ability of this coating to repel oil will diminish over time with
normal usage, and rubbing the screen with an abrasive material will further
diminish its effect and may scratch the glass.
Avoiding Water and Wet Locations Do not expose iPhone to water or
rain, or handle iPhone near wet locations—for example, near washbasins
or toilets. Take care not to spill any food or liquid on iPhone. In case
iPhone gets wet, unplug all cables, turn off iPhone before cleaning, and
allow it to dry thoroughly before turning it on again. Do not attempt
to dry iPhone with an external heat source, such as a microwave oven
or hair dryer. Damage to iPhone caused by contact with liquid is not
covered under the warranty.Repairing or Modifying iPhone Never attempt to repair or modify
iPhone yourself. iPhone does not contain any user-serviceable parts,
except (where applicable) for the SIM card and SIM tray. Disassembling
iPhone, including the removal of external screws and back cover, may
cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. If iPhone has been
submerged in water, punctured, or subjected to a severe fall, do not
use it until you take it to an Apple Authorized Service Provider. Service
should only be provided by Apple or an Apple Authorized Service
Provider. If you have questions, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized
Service Provider. For service information, go to:
www.apple.com/support/iphone/service/faq
Battery Replacement Do not attempt to replace the rechargeable
battery in iPhone yourself. The battery should be replaced only by
Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. For more information
about battery replacement service, go to:??
www.apple.com/batteries/replacements.html
Charging iPhone To charge iPhone, use only the Apple Dock Connector
to USB Cable with the following: (i) an Apple USB Power Adapter,
(ii) another Apple-branded product or accessory designed to work with
iPhone, (iii) a third-party accessory certified to use the Apple “Works with
iPhone” or “Made for iPhone” logo, (iv) a high-power USB port on another
device that is compliant with the USB 2.0 or 1.1 standard, or (v) a power
adapter compliant with one or more of the following standards EN
301489-34, IEC 62684, YD/T 1591-2009, CNS 15285, ITU L.1000, or another
applicable mobile phone power adapter interoperability standard.
An iPhone Micro USB Adapter (available separately in some areas) or
other adapter may be needed to connect iPhone to some compatible
power adapters.
Note:??Only micro USB power adapters in certain regions that comply
with applicable mobile phone power adapter interoperability standards
are compatible. Please contact the power adapter manufacturer to find
out if your micro USB power adapter complies with these standards.
Read all safety instructions for any products and accessories before using
with iPhone. Apple is not responsible for the operation of, or any damage
caused by, third-party accessories or their compliance with safety and
regulatory standards.
When you use the Apple USB Power Adapter to charge iPhone, make
sure that the power adapter is fully assembled before you plug it into
a power outlet. Then insert the Apple USB Power Adapter firmly into
the power outlet. Do not connect or disconnect the Apple USB Power
Adapter with wet hands.
The Apple USB Power Adapter may become warm during normal use.
Always allow adequate ventilation around the Apple USB Power Adapter
and use care when handling. Unplug the Apple USB Power Adapter if any
of the following conditions exist:
 The power cord or plug has become frayed or damaged.
 The adapter is exposed to rain, liquid, or excessive moisture.
 The adapter case has become damaged.
 You suspect the adapter needs service or repair.
 You want to clean the adapter. Avoiding Hearing Damage Permanent hearing loss may occur if the
receiver, earbuds, headphones, speakerphone, or earpiece are used
at high volume. Use only compatible receivers, earbuds, headphones,
speakerphones, or earpieces with your device. Turn on the audio and
check the volume before inserting anything in your ear. You can adapt
over time to a higher volume of sound that may sound normal but can
be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears
or muffled speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The
louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be
affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing:
 Limit the amount of time you use the receiver, earbuds, headphones,
speakerphone, or earpieces at high volume.
 Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
 Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you.
For information about how to set a maximum volume limit on iPhone,
see the iPhone User Guide.
Emergency Calls You should not rely on wireless devices for essential
communications, such as medical emergencies. Use of iPhone to call
emergency services may not work in all locations or all operating
conditions. Emergency numbers and services vary by region, and
sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to network
availability or environmental interference. Some cellular networks may
not accept an emergency call from iPhone if iPhone is not activated, if
iPhone is not compatible with or configured to operate on a particular
cellular network, or (when applicable) if iPhone does not have a SIM or if
the SIM is PIN-locked.
Driving and Riding Safely Use of iPhone while driving a vehicle or
riding a bicycle may be distracting. If you find using iPhone disruptive
or distracting while driving or riding, pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call. Use of iPhone alone or with headphones
(even if used only in one ear) while driving or riding is not recommended
and is illegal in some areas. Consider using a compatible hands-free
device with iPhone. Use of a hands-free device may be required in some
areas. Check and obey the laws and regulations regarding the use of
mobile devices like iPhone in the areas where you drive or ride.
Navigating Safely Do not rely on iPhone applications that provide
maps, digital compass headings, orientation information, traffic
information, directions, or location-based navigation to determine
precise locations, proximity, orientation, distance, traffic conditions or
direction. These applications should only be used for basic navigation
assistance.
Maps, directions, and location-based applications depend on data
services. These data services are subject to change and may not be
available in all areas, resulting in maps, digital compass headings,
directions, traffic conditions or location-based information that may be
unavailable, inaccurate, or incomplete.
iPhone contains an internal digital compass located in the upper-right
corner of iPhone. The accuracy of digital compass headings may be
negatively affected by magnetic or other environmental interference,
including interference caused by the close proximity of the magnets contained in the iPhone earbuds. Never rely solely on the digital
compass for determining direction. Compare the information provided
on iPhone to your surroundings and defer to posted signs to resolve
any discrepancies.
Do not use location-based applications while performing activities that
require your full attention. Always comply with posted signs and the laws
and regulations in the areas where you are using iPhone.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag An air bag inflates with great
force. Do not store iPhone or any of its accessories in the area over the air
bag or in the air bag deployment area.
Seizures, Blackouts, and Eyestrain A small percentage of people may
be susceptible to blackouts or seizures (even if they have never had one
before) when exposed to flashing lights or light patterns such as when
playing games or watching video. If you have experienced seizures
or blackouts or have a family history of such occurrences, you should
consult a physician before playing games (if available) or watching videos
on your iPhone. Discontinue use of iPhone and consult a physician if
you experience headaches, blackouts, seizures, convulsion, eye or muscle
twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary movement, or disorientation.
To reduce risk of headaches, blackouts, seizures, and eyestrain, avoid
prolonged use, hold iPhone further away from your eyes, use iPhone in a
well-lit room, and take frequent breaks.
Choking Hazards iPhone and its accessories may contain small parts,
which may present a choking hazard to small children. Keep such parts
away from small children.
Repetitive Motion When you perform repetitive activities such as
typing or playing games on iPhone, you may experience occasional
discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your
body. Take frequent breaks and if you have discomfort during or after
such use, stop use and see a physician.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Turn off iPhone when in any area
with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Do not charge iPhone, and obey
all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion
or fire, resulting in serious injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always,
marked clearly. Potential areas may include: fueling areas (such as gas
stations); below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain,
dust, or metal powders); and any other area where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Using Connectors, Ports, and Buttons Never force a connector into
a port or apply excessive pressure to a button, because this may cause
damage that is not covered under the warranty. If the connector and port
don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Check for
obstructions and make sure that the connector matches the port and that
you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port.
Accessories and Wireless Performance Not all iPod accessories are
fully compatible with iPhone. Turning on Airplane Mode on iPhone may
eliminate audio interference between iPhone and an accessory. While Airplane mode is on, you cannot make or receive calls or use features that
require wireless communication. Under some conditions, certain accessories
may affect iPhone wireless performance. Reorienting or relocating iPhone
and the connected accessory may improve wireless performance.
Keeping iPhone Within Acceptable Temperatures iPhone is designed
to be operated in temperatures between 0º and 35º C (32º to 95º F) and
stored in temperatures between -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). Low- or
high-temperature conditions might temporarily shorten battery life or
cause iPhone to temporarily stop working properly. Leaving iPhone in
a parked vehicle or in direct sunlight can cause iPhone to exceed these
storage or operating temperature ranges. Avoid dramatic changes in
temperature or humidity when using iPhone as condensation may form
on or within iPhone.
When you’re using iPhone or charging the battery, it is normal for iPhone
to get warm. The exterior of iPhone functions as a cooling surface that
transfers heat from inside the unit to the cooler air outside.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy iPhone transmits and receives
radio frequency (RF) energy through its antennas. The iPhone cellular
antennas are located at the top and bottom edges of iPhone. The Wi-Fi
and Bluetooth® antenna is located near the top of iPhone.
iPhone is designed and manufactured to comply with the limits for
exposure to RF energy set by international regulatory agencies, including
the FCC of the United States, IC of Canada, MIC of Japan, and the Counsel
of the European Union, among others.
“Specific Absorption Rate,” or SAR, refers to the rate at which the body
absorbs RF energy. The SAR limits for mobile phones are 1.6 watts per
kilogram (W/kg) for the FCC and IC, and 2.0 W/kg for the Council of the
European Union.
iPhone has been tested,
1
and meets the FCC, IC, and European Union RF
exposure guidelines for cellular, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth operation.
During SAR testing, iPhone is held in standard operating positions (i.e.,
at the head and on the body) and its radios are set to transmit at the
highest power level. iPhone’s maximum SAR levels on each frequency of
operation are provided in a chart at the end of this section.
The SAR levels experienced during normal use may be lower than the
maximum SAR levels. In normal use, iPhone automatically adjusts radio
transmission power to the lowest level necessary to communicate with
the wireless network.
When carrying iPhone, keep it 1.5 cm (5/8 inch) or more away from your
body to ensure exposure levels remain at or below the maximum levels.
Avoid cases with metal parts.

The device was tested according to measurement standards and
procedures specified in FCC OET Bulletin 65, Supplement C (Edition
01-01) and IEEE 1528-2003, and Canada RSS 102, Issue 4, March 2010.
iPhone adheres to the European Council Recommendation of 12
July 1999 on the Limitation of Exposure of the General Public to
Electromagnetic Fields [1999/519/EC]. Exposure to RF energy is related to time and distance. If you are
concerned about RF exposure, decrease your total talk time on iPhone
and increase your distance to iPhone by using one of the many
hands-free options available, including the built-in speakerphone, the

APPLE INC. iOS SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
Single Use License
PLEASE READ THIS SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT (“LICENSE”)
CAREFULLY BEFORE USING YOUR iOS DEVICE OR DOWNLOADING THE
SOFTWARE UPDATE ACCOMPANYING THIS LICENSE. BY USING YOUR
iOS DEVICE OR DOWNLOADING A SOFTWARE UPDATE, AS APPLICABLE,
YOU ARE AGREEING TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE. IF
YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSE, DO NOT USE THE iOS DEVICE OR DOWNLOAD THE SOFTWARE UPDATE. FOR iOS DEVICE
PURCHASERS, IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THE LICENSE,
YOU MAY RETURN THE iOS DEVICE WITHIN THE RETURN PERIOD TO THE
APPLE STORE OR AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTOR WHERE YOU OBTAINED IT
FOR A REFUND, SUBJECT TO APPLE’S RETURN POLICY FOUND AT
http://www.apple.com/legal/sales_policies/.
1. General.
(a) The software (including Boot ROM code and other embedded
software), documentation, interfaces, content, fonts and any data that
came with your iOS Device (“Original iOS Software”), as may be updated
or replaced by feature enhancements, software updates or system restore
software provided by Apple (“iOS Software Updates”), whether in read
only memory, on any other media or in any other form (the Original iOS
Software and iOS Software Updates are collectively referred to as the
“iOS Software”) are licensed, not sold, to you by Apple Inc. (“Apple”) for
use only under the terms of this License. Apple and its licensors retain
ownership of the iOS Software itself and reserve all rights not expressly
granted to you.
(b) Apple, at its discretion, may make available future iOS Software
Updates for your iOS Device. The iOS Software Updates, if any, may not
necessarily include all existing software features or new features that
Apple releases for newer or other models of iOS Devices. The terms of
this License will govern any iOS Software Updates provided by Apple
that replace and/or supplement the Original iOS Software product,
unless such iOS Software Update is accompanied by a separate license in
which case the terms of that license will govern.
2. Permitted License Uses and Restrictions.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, you are granted
a limited non-exclusive license to use the iOS Software on a single
Apple-branded iOS Device. Except as permitted in Section 2(b) below,
and unless as provided in a separate agreement between you and Apple,
this License does not allow the iOS Software to exist on more than one
Apple-branded iOS Device at a time, and you may not distribute or make
the iOS Software available over a network where it could be used by
multiple devices at the same time. This License does not grant you any
rights to use Apple proprietary interfaces and other intellectual property
in the design, development, manufacture, licensing or distribution of
third party devices and accessories, or third party software applications,
for use with iOS Devices. Some of those rights are available under
separate licenses from Apple. For more information on developing
third party devices and accessories for iOS Devices, please email
madeforipod@apple.com. For more information on developing software
applications for iOS Devices, please email devprograms@apple.com.
(b) Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, you are granted
a limited non-exclusive license to download iOS Software Updates that
may be made available by Apple for your model of the iOS Device to
update or restore the software on any such iOS Device that you own
or control. This License does not allow you to update or restore any
iOS Device that you do not control or own, and you may not distribute
or make the iOS Software Updates available over a network where
they could be used by multiple devices or multiple computers at the same time. If you download an iOS Software Update to your computer,
you may make one copy of the iOS Software Updates stored on your
computer in machine-readable form for backup purposes only, provided
that the backup copy must include all copyright or other proprietary
notices contained on the original.
(c) You may not and you agree not to, or to enable others to, copy
(except as expressly permitted by this License), decompile, reverse
engineer, disassemble, attempt to derive the source code of, decrypt,
modify, or create derivative works of the iOS Software or any services
provided by the iOS Software, or any part thereof (except as and only
to the extent any foregoing restriction is prohibited by applicable law
or to the extent as may be permitted by licensing terms governing use
of open-sourced components included with the iOS Software). Any
attempt to do so is a violation of the rights of Apple and its licensors of
the iOS Software.
(d) By storing content on your iOS Device you are making a digital copy.
In some jurisdictions, it is unlawful to make digital copies without prior
permission from the rights holder. The iOS Software may be used to
reproduce materials so long as such use is limited to reproduction of
non-copyrighted materials, materials in which you own the copyright, or
materials you are authorized or legally permitted to reproduce.
(e) You agree to use the iOS Software and the Services (as defined
in Section 5 below) in compliance with all applicable laws, including
local laws of the country or region in which you reside or in which you
download or use the iOS Software and Services.
(f) Use of and access to certain features of the iOS Software and certain
Services (as defined in Section 5) may require you to apply for a unique
user name and password combination, known as an Apple ID. In addition,
you acknowledge that many features and Services of the iOS Software
transmit data and could impact charges to your data plan, and that
you are responsible for any such charges. For more information, please
consult the User Guide for your iOS Device.
3. Transfer. You may not rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute, or sublicense
the iOS Software. You may, however, make a one-time permanent transfer
of all of your license rights to the iOS Software to another party in
connection with the transfer of ownership of your iOS Device, provided
that: (a) the transfer must include your iOS Device and all of the iOS
Software, including all its component parts, original media, printed
materials and this License; (b) you do not retain any copies of the iOS
Software, full or partial, including copies stored on a computer or other
storage device; and (c) the party receiving the iOS Software reads and
agrees to accept the terms and conditions of this License.
4. Consent to Use of Data.
(a) Diagnostic and Usage Data. If you opt in to diagnostic and usage
collection, you agree that Apple and its subsidiaries and agents may
collect, maintain, process and use diagnostic, technical, usage and related
information, including but not limited to information about your iOS
Device, computer, system and application software, and peripherals, that
is gathered periodically to facilitate the provision of software updates,
product support and other services to you (if any) related to the iOS
Software, and to verify compliance with the terms of this License. Apple may use this information, as long as it is collected in a form that does
not personally identify you, to provide and improve Apple’s products
and services. If you have opted in and have Location Services turned
on, the location of your device may also be sent to help Apple analyze
wireless or cellular performance issues (e.g. the strength or weakness of
a cellular signal in a particular location). To enable Apple’s partners and
third party developers to improve their software, hardware and services
designed for use with Apple products, Apple may also provide any such
partner or third party developer with a subset of diagnostic information
that is relevant to that partner’s or developer’s software, hardware and/or
services, as long as the diagnostic information is in a form that does not
personally identify you.
(b) Location Data. Apple and its partners and licensees may provide
certain services through your iOS Device that rely upon location
information. To provide and improve these services, where available,
Apple and its partners and licensees may transmit, collect, maintain,
process and use your location data, including the real-time geographic
location of your iOS Device, road travel speed information, and location
search queries. The location data and queries collected by Apple are
collected in a form that does not personally identify you and may be
used by Apple and its partners and licensees to provide location-based
products and services. By using any location-based services on your
iOS Device, you agree and consent to Apple’s and its partners’ and
licensees’ transmission, collection, maintenance, processing and use of
your location data and queries to provide and improve location-based
and road traffic-based products and services. You may withdraw this
consent at any time by going to the Location Services setting on your
iOS Device and either turning off the global Location Services setting or
turning off the individual location settings of each location-aware item
on your iOS Device. Disabling these location features will only impact
the location-based functionality of your iOS Device. It will not affect iOS
Device features unrelated to location services. When using third party
applications or services on the iOS Device that use or provide location
data, you are subject to and should review such third party’s terms and
privacy policy on use of location data by such third party applications
or services.
(c) Siri. If your iOS Device supports Siri, which includes the dictation
feature, these features allow you to make requests, give commands and
dictate text to your device using your voice. When you use Siri, the things
you say will be recorded and sent to Apple to process your requests.
Your device will also send Apple other information, such as your first
name and nickname; the names, nicknames, and relationship with you
(e.g., “my dad”) of your address book contacts; and song names in your
collection (collectively, your “User Data”). All of this data is used to help
Siri understand you better and recognize what you say. It is not linked to
other data that Apple may have from your use of other Apple services.
By using Siri, you agree and consent to Apple’s and its subsidiaries’
and agents’ transmission, collection, maintenance, processing, and
use of this information, including your voice input and User Data, to
provide and improve Siri and other Apple products and services. If
you have Location Services turned on, the location of your iOS Device
at the time you make a request will also be sent to Apple to help Siri improve the accuracy of its response to your location-based requests.
You may disable the location-based functionality of Siri by going to
the Location Services setting on your iOS Device and turning off the
individual location setting for Siri. You can also turn off Siri altogether
at any time. To do so, open Settings, tap General, tap Siri, and slide the
Siri switch to “off”. You may also restrict the ability to use Siri under the
Restrictions Setting.
(d) FaceTime. The FaceTime video calling feature of the iOS Software
(“FaceTime”) requires Internet access and may not be available in all
countries or regions. Your use of FaceTime is subject to your compliance
with Section 2(e) above. In order to set up FaceTime, and to initiate and
receive FaceTime calls between you and other FaceTime users, certain
unique identifiers for your iOS Device and account are needed. These
unique identifiers may include your email address(es), the Apple ID
information you provide, a hardware identifier for your iOS Device, and
your iPhone’s telephone number. By using the iOS Software, you agree
that Apple may transmit, collect, maintain, process and use these
identifiers for the purpose of providing and improving the FaceTime
feature. You understand that your iPhone’s telephone number will
be displayed to the other party on the video call (even if you have a
blocked number) or your email address will be shown, depending on
what setting you choose. If you are using a FaceTime-capable iPad or
iPod touch, your email address will be displayed to the other party on
the video call. You may turn off the FaceTime feature by going to the
FaceTime setting on your iOS Device or by going to the Restrictions
setting and enabling the FaceTime restriction.
(e) iMessage. The messaging feature of the iOS Software (“iMessage”)
may not be available in all countries or regions. Your use of iMessage
is subject to your compliance with Section 2(e) above. In order to set
up iMessage, and to initiate and receive iMessages between you and
other iOS Device users, certain unique identifiers for your iOS Device and
account are needed. These unique identifiers may include your email
address(es), the Apple ID information you provide, a hardware identifier
for your iOS Device, and your iPhone’s telephone number. By using the
iOS Software, you agree that Apple may transmit, collect, maintain,
process and use these identifiers for the purpose of providing and
improving the iMessage service. The iMessage service requires a Wi-Fi
or cellular data connection. To facilitate delivery of your iMessages and
to enable you to maintain conversations across your devices, Apple may
hold your iMessages in encrypted form for a limited period of time. If
your message cannot be sent as an iMessage, your message may be sent
as an SMS or MMS message, for which carrier messaging rates may apply.
You understand that your iPhone’s telephone number will be displayed
to the other party (even if you have a blocked number) or your email
address will be shown, depending on what setting you choose. If you are
using an iMessage-capable iPad or iPod touch your email address will be
displayed to the other party. You may turn off the iMessage service by
going to the Messages setting on your iOS Device.
(f) Photo Stream. By using the Photo Stream feature of iCloud, you
agree that Apple may store photos taken on your iOS Device or
uploaded from your computer for a limited period of time and
automatically send the photos to your other Apple iOS Devices or computers that are Photo Stream-enabled. Please note that a limited
number of photos may be stored at any one time, and older photos will
be automatically deleted from Photo Stream over time. Any photos you
want to keep must be saved to your camera roll, another album or your
computer. Photo resolution may vary depending on the device to which
the photos are downloaded. If you do not wish to use Photo Stream, you
can turn Photo Stream off on all of your iOS Devices or computers that
are Photo Stream-enabled. All use of the Photo Stream feature is subject
to the terms and conditions of this agreement and the iCloud Terms and
Conditions located at: http://www.apple.com/legal/icloud/ww/.
(g) Interest-Based Advertising. Apple may provide mobile, interest-based
advertising to you. If you do not want to receive relevant ads on your
iOS Device, you can opt out by going to this link on your iOS Device:
http://oo.apple.com. If you opt out, you will continue to receive the
same number of mobile ads, but they may be less relevant because
they will not be based on your interests. You may still see ads related
to the content on a web page or in an application or based on other
non-personal information. This opt-out applies only to Apple advertising
services and does not affect interest-based advertising from other
advertising networks.
(h) Privacy Policy. At all times your information will be treated in
accordance with Apple’s Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by
reference into this License and can be viewed at: www.apple.com/
privacy/.
5. Services and Third Party Materials.
(a) The iOS Software enables access to Apple’s iTunes Store, App Store,
Game Center, iCloud and other Apple and third party services and web
sites (collectively and individually, “Services”). Such Services may not be
available in all languages or in all countries. Use of these Services requires
Internet access and use of certain Services may require an Apple ID, may
require you to accept additional terms and may be subject to additional
fees. By using this software in connection with an Apple ID, iTunes Store
account, Game Center account, or iCloud account, you agree to the
applicable terms of service for that account, such as the latest iTunes
Store Terms and Conditions or Game Center Terms and Conditions, which
you may access and review at http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/ww/,
or the iCloud Terms and Conditions which can be found at
http://www.apple.com/legal/icloud/ww/, respectively.
(b) If you sign up for iCloud, certain iCloud features like “Back Up” and
“Find My iPhone” may be accessed directly from the iOS Software. You
acknowledge and agree that your use of iCloud and these features is
subject to the latest terms and conditions of the iCloud service, which
you may access and review at: http://www.apple.com/legal/icloud/ww/
(c) You understand that by using any of the Services, you may encounter
content that may be deemed offensive, indecent, or objectionable,
which content may or may not be identified as having explicit language,
and that the results of any search or entering of a particular URL may
automatically and unintentionally generate links or references to
objectionable material. Nevertheless, you agree to use the Services at
your sole risk and that Apple shall have no liability to you for content
that may be found to be offensive, indecent, or objectionable. (d) Certain Services may display, include or make available content, data,
information, applications or materials from third parties (“Third Party
Materials”) or provide links to certain third party web sites. By using the
Services, you acknowledge and agree that Apple is not responsible for
examining or evaluating the content, accuracy, completeness, timeliness,
validity, copyright compliance, legality, decency, quality or any other
aspect of such Third Party Materials or web sites. Apple, its officers,
affiliates and subsidiaries do not warrant or endorse and do not assume
and will not have any liability or responsibility to you or any other person
for any third-party Services, Third Party Materials or web sites, or for any
other materials, products, or services of third parties. Third Party Materials
and links to other web sites are provided solely as a convenience to you.
(e) Financial information displayed by any Services is for general
informational purposes only and should not be relied upon as
investment advice. Before executing any securities transaction based
upon information obtained through the Services, you should consult
with a financial or securities professional who is legally qualified to give
financial or securities advice in your country or region. Location data
provided by any Services is for basic navigational purposes only and
is not intended to be relied upon in situations where precise location
information is needed or where erroneous, inaccurate, time-delayed or
incomplete location data may lead to death, personal injury, property or
environmental damage. Neither Apple nor any of its content providers
guarantees the availability, accuracy, completeness, reliability, or
timeliness of stock information, location data or any other data displayed
by any Services.
(f) You agree that the Services contain proprietary content, information
and material that is owned by Apple and/or its licensors, and is protected
by applicable intellectual property and other laws, including but not
limited to copyright. You agree that you will not use such proprietary
content, information or materials other than for permitted use of the
Services or in any manner that is inconsistent with the terms of this
License or that infringes any intellectual property rights of a third party
or Apple. No portion of the Services may be reproduced in any form or
by any means. You agree not to modify, rent, lease, loan, sell, distribute,
or create derivative works based on the Services, in any manner, and
you shall not exploit the Services in any unauthorized way whatsoever,
including but not limited to, using the Services to transmit any computer
viruses, worms, trojan horses or other malware, or by trespass or
burdening network capacity. You further agree not to use the Services in
any manner to harass, abuse, stalk, threaten, defame or otherwise infringe
or violate the rights of any other party, and that Apple is not in any way
responsible for any such use by you, nor for any harassing, threatening,
defamatory, offensive, infringing or illegal messages or transmissions that
you may receive as a result of using any of the Services.
(g) In addition, Services and Third Party Materials that may be accessed
from, displayed on or linked to from the iOS Device are not available in all
languages or in all countries or regions. Apple makes no representation
that such Services and Materials are appropriate or available for use
in any particular location. To the extent you choose to use or access
such Services and Materials, you do so at your own initiative and are
responsible for compliance with any applicable laws, including but not limited to applicable local laws. Apple and its licensors reserve the right
to change, suspend, remove, or disable access to any Services at any
time without notice. In no event will Apple be liable for the removal
of or disabling of access to any such Services. Apple may also impose
limits on the use of or access to certain Services, in any case and without
notice or liability.
6. Termination. This License is effective until terminated. Your rights
under this License will terminate automatically or otherwise cease to be
effective without notice from Apple if you fail to comply with any term(s)
of this License. Upon the termination of this License, you shall cease all
use of the iOS Software. Sections 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12 and 13 of this License
shall survive any such termination.
7. Disclaimer of Warranties.
7.1 If you are a customer who is a consumer (someone who uses the
iOS Software outside of your trade, business or profession), you may
have legal rights in your country of residence which would prohibit the
following limitations from applying to you, and where prohibited they
will not apply to you. To find out more about rights, you should contact a
local consumer advice organization.
7.2 YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, USE OF THE iOS SOFTWARE
AND SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK AND THAT THE ENTIRE RISK AS
TO SATISFACTORY QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, ACCURACY AND EFFORT
IS WITH YOU.
7.3 TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
THE iOS SOFTWARE AND SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE iOS SOFTWARE
ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITH ALL FAULTS AND
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, AND APPLE AND APPLE’S
LICENSORS (COLLECTIVELY REFERRED TO AS “APPLE” FOR THE PURPOSES
OF SECTIONS 7 AND 8) HEREBY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND
CONDITIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE iOS SOFTWARE AND SERVICES,
EITHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND/OR CONDITIONS OF
MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF
THIRD PARTY RIGHTS.
7.4 APPLE DOES NOT WARRANT AGAINST INTERFERENCE WITH
YOUR ENJOYMENT OF THE iOS SOFTWARE AND SERVICES, THAT THE
FUNCTIONS CONTAINED IN OR SERVICES PERFORMED BY THE iOS
SOFTWARE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, THAT THE OPERATION
OF THE iOS SOFTWARE AND SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR
ERROR-FREE, THAT ANY SERVICE WILL CONTINUE TO BE MADE AVAILABLE,
THAT DEFECTS IN THE iOS SOFTWARE OR SERVICES WILL BE CORRECTED,
OR THAT THE iOS SOFTWARE WILL BE COMPATIBLE OR WORK WITH ANY
THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE, APPLICATIONS OR THIRD PARTY SERVICES.
INSTALLATION OF THIS SOFTWARE MAY AFFECT THE USABILITY OF THIRD
PARTY SOFTWARE, APPLICATIONS OR THIRD PARTY SERVICES.
7.5 YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE iOS SOFTWARE AND
SERVICES ARE NOT INTENDED OR SUITABLE FOR USE IN SITUATIONS OR
ENVIRONMENTS WHERE THE FAILURE OR TIME DELAYS OF, OR ERRORS
OR INACCURACIES IN, THE CONTENT, DATA OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE iOS SOFTWARE OR SERVICES COULD LEAD TO DEATH, PERSONAL
INJURY, OR SEVERE PHYSICAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE, INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION THE OPERATION OF NUCLEAR FACILITIES, AIRCRAFT
NAVIGATION OR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL, LIFE
SUPPORT OR WEAPONS SYSTEMS.
7.6 NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY
APPLE OR AN APPLE AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE SHALL CREATE A
WARRANTY. SHOULD THE iOS SOFTWARE OR SERVICES PROVE DEFECTIVE,
YOU ASSUME THE ENTIRE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR
OR CORRECTION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION
OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR LIMITATIONS ON APPLICABLE STATUTORY
RIGHTS OF A CONSUMER, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION AND LIMITATIONS
MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
8. Limitation of Liability. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY
APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL APPLE BE LIABLE FOR PERSONAL
INJURY, OR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES
FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, CORRUPTION OR LOSS OF DATA, FAILURE TO
TRANSMIT OR RECEIVE ANY DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR ANY
OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED
TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE iOS SOFTWARE AND SERVICES
OR ANY THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE OR APPLICATIONS IN CONJUNCTION
WITH THE iOS SOFTWARE, HOWEVER CAUSED, REGARDLESS OF THE
THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF
APPLE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR
PERSONAL INJURY, OR OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. In no event shall Apple’s
total liability to you for all damages (other than as may be required by
applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed the amount of
two hundred and fifty dollars (U.S.$250.00). The foregoing limitations will
apply even if the above stated remedy fails of its essential purpose.
9. Digital Certificates. The iOS Software contains functionality that
allows it to accept digital certificates either issued from Apple or from
third parties. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR DECIDING WHETHER
OR NOT TO RELY ON A CERTIFICATE WHETHER ISSUED BY APPLE OR A
THIRD PARTY. YOUR USE OF DIGITAL CERTIFICATES IS AT YOUR SOLE
RISK. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, APPLE
MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
AS TO MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
ACCURACY, SECURITY, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS
WITH RESPECT TO DIGITAL CERTIFICATES.
10. Export Control. You may not use or otherwise export or re-export the
iOS Software except as authorized by United States law and the laws of
the jurisdiction(s) in which the iOS Software was obtained. In particular,
but without limitation, the iOS Software may not be exported or reexported (a) into any U.S. embargoed countries or (b) to anyone on the
U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the
U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s List or Entity List. By using
the iOS Software, you represent and warrant that you are not located
in any such country or on any such list. You also agree that you will not use the iOS Software for any purposes prohibited by United States law,
including, without limitation, the development, design, manufacture or
production of missiles, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons.
11. Government End Users. The iOS Software and related documentation
are “Commercial Items”, as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. §2.101, consisting
of “Commercial Computer Software” and “Commercial Computer Software
Documentation”, as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. §12.212 or 48 C.F.R.
§227.7202, as applicable. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. §12.212 or 48 C.F.R.
§227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, as applicable, the Commercial Computer
Software and Commercial Computer Software Documentation are being
licensed to U.S. Government end users (a) only as Commercial Items and
(b) with only those rights as are granted to all other end users pursuant to
the terms and conditions herein. Unpublished-rights reserved under the
copyright laws of the United States.
12. Controlling Law and Severability. This License will be governed by
and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California,
excluding its conflict of law principles. This License shall not be governed
by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International
Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded. If you are
a consumer based in the United Kingdom, this License will be governed
by the laws of the jurisdiction of your residence. If for any reason a
court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision, or portion thereof,
to be unenforceable, the remainder of this License shall continue in full
force and effect.
13. Complete Agreement; Governing Language. This License constitutes
the entire agreement between you and Apple relating to the iOS
Software and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings
regarding such subject matter. No amendment to or modification of
this License will be binding unless in writing and signed by Apple. Any
translation of this License is done for local requirements and in the event
of a dispute between the English and any non-English versions, the
English version of this License shall govern, to the extent not prohibited
by local law in your jurisdiction.
14. Third Party Acknowledgements. Portions of the iOS Software may
utilize or include third party software and other copyrighted material.
Acknowledgements, licensing terms and disclaimers for such material

Apple One (1) Year Limited Warranty—iPhone
For Apple Branded Products Only
HOW CONSUMER LAW RELATES TO THIS WARRANTY. THIS WARRANTY
GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS
THAT VARY FROM STATE TO STATE (OR BY COUNTRY OR PROVINCE).
OTHER THAN AS PERMITTED BY LAW, APPLE DOES NOT EXCLUDE, LIMIT
OR SUSPEND OTHER RIGHTS YOU MAY HAVE, INCLUDING THOSE THAT
MAY ARISE FROM THE NONCONFORMITY OF A SALES CONTRACT. FOR
A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF YOUR RIGHTS YOU SHOULD CONSULT THE
LAWS OF YOUR COUNTRY, PROVINCE OR STATE.
WARRANTY LIMITATIONS THAT MAY AFFECT CONSUMER LAW. TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THIS WARRANTY AND THE REMEDIES
SET FORTH ARE EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,
REMEDIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER ORAL, WRITTEN, STATUTORY,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. APPLE DISCLAIMS ALL STATUTORY AND IMPLIED
WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND
WARRANTIES AGAINST HIDDEN OR LATENT DEFECTS, TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY LAW. IN SO FAR AS SUCH WARRANTIES CANNOT BE
DISCLAIMED, APPLE LIMITS THE DURATION AND REMEDIES OF SUCH
WARRANTIES TO THE DURATION OF THIS EXPRESS WARRANTY AND, AT
APPLE’S OPTION, THE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT SERVICES DESCRIBED
BELOW. SOME STATES (COUNTRIES AND PROVINCES) DO NOT ALLOW
LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY (OR CONDITION)
MAY LAST, SO THE LIMITATION DESCRIBED ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.WHAT IS COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY? Apple warrants the Applebranded hardware product and accessories contained in the
original packaging (“Apple Product”) against defects in materials
and workmanship when used normally in accordance with Apple’s
published guidelines for a period of ONE (1) YEAR from the date of
original retail purchase by the end-user purchaser (“Warranty Period”).
Apple’s published guidelines include but are not limited to information
contained in technical specifications, user manuals and service
communications.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THIS WARRANTY? This warranty does not
apply to any non-Apple branded hardware products or any software,
even if packaged or sold with Apple hardware. Manufacturers, suppliers,
or publishers, other than Apple, may provide their own warranties to
you but Apple, in so far as permitted by law, provides their products
“AS IS”. Software distributed by Apple with or without the Apple brand
(including, but not limited to system software) is not covered by this
warranty. Please refer to the licensing agreement accompanying the
software for details of your rights with respect to its use. Apple does not
warrant that the operation of the Apple Product will be uninterrupted
or error-free. Apple is not responsible for damage arising from failure to
follow instructions relating to the Apple Product’s use.
This warranty does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, such as
batteries or protective coatings that are designed to diminish over
time, unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials or
workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to
scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by
use with another product; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse,
misuse, liquid contact, fire, earthquake or other external cause; (e)
to damage caused by operating the Apple Product outside Apple’s
published guidelines; (f) to damage caused by service (including
upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a
representative of Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider
(“AASP”); (g) to an Apple Product that has been modified to alter
functionality or capability without the written permission of Apple;
(h) to defects caused by normal wear and tear or otherwise due to the
normal aging of the Apple Product, or (i) if any serial number has been
removed or defaced from the Apple Product.
IMPORTANT RESTRICTION. Apple may restrict warranty service to the
country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the
Apple Product.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES. YOU SHOULD MAKE PERIODIC BACKUP COPIES
OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED ON THE APPLE PRODUCT’S STORAGE
MEDIA TO PROTECT THE CONTENTS AND AS A PRECAUTION AGAINST
POSSIBLE OPERATIONAL FAILURES.
Before receiving warranty service, Apple or its agents may require that
you furnish proof of purchase details, respond to questions designed to
assist with diagnosing potential issues and follow Apple’s procedures
for obtaining warranty service. Before submitting your Apple Product
for warranty service you should maintain a separate backup copy of the
contents of its storage media, remove all personal information that you
want to protect and disable all security passwords.DURING WARRANTY SERVICE THE CONTENTS OF THE STORAGE MEDIA
WILL BE DELETED AND REFORMATTED. APPLE AND ITS AGENTS ARE NOT
RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSS OF SOFTWARE PROGRAMS, DATA OR OTHER
INFORMATION CONTAINED ON THE STORAGE MEDIA OR ANY OTHER
PART OF THE APPLE PRODUCT SERVICED.
Following warranty service your Apple Product or a replacement product
will be returned to you as your Apple Product was configured when
originally purchased, subject to applicable updates. Apple may install
system software updates as part of warranty service that will prevent
the Apple Product from reverting to an earlier version of the system
software. Third party applications installed on the Apple Product may
not be compatible or work with the Apple Product as a result of the
system software update. You will be responsible for reinstalling all other
software programs, data and information. Recovery and reinstallation of
other software programs, data and information are not covered under
this warranty.
Important: Do not open the Apple Product. Opening the Apple Product
may cause damage that is not covered by this warranty. Only Apple or
an AASP should perform service on this Apple Product.
WHAT WILL APPLE DO IN THE EVENT THE WARRANTY IS BREACHED?
If during the Warranty Period you submit a valid claim to Apple or an
AASP, Apple will, at its option, (i) repair the Apple Product using new or
previously used parts that are equivalent to new in performance and
reliability, (ii) replace the Apple Product with a product that is at least
functionally equivalent to the Apple Product and is formed from new
and/or previously used parts that are equivalent to new in performance
and reliability, or (iii) exchange the Apple Product for a refund of your
purchase price.
Apple may request that you replace certain user-installable parts or
products. A replacement part or product, including a user-installable
part that has been installed in accordance with instructions provided by
Apple, assumes the remaining warranty of the Apple Product or ninety
(90) days from the date of replacement or repair, whichever provides
longer coverage for you. When a product or part is replaced or a refund
provided, any replacement item becomes your property and the replaced
or refunded item becomes Apple’s property.
HOW TO OBTAIN WARRANTY SERVICE. Please access and review the
online help resources described below before seeking warranty service.
If the Apple Product is still not functioning properly after making
use of these resources, please contact an Apple representative or, if
applicable, an Apple owned retail store (“Apple Retail”) or AASP, using the
information provided below. An Apple representative or AASP will help
determine whether your Apple Product requires service and, if it does,
will inform you how Apple will provide it. When contacting Apple via
telephone, other charges may apply depending on your location.
Online information with details on obtaining warranty service is
provided below.
WARRANTY SERVICE OPTIONS. Apple will provide warranty service
through one or more of the following options:(i) Carry-in service. You may return your Apple Product to an Apple Retail
or AASP location offering carry-in service. Service will be performed at
the location, or Apple Retail or an AASP may send your Apple Product
to an Apple Repair Service (“ARS”) location to be serviced. Once you are
notified that service is complete, you will promptly retrieve the Apple
Product from the Apple Retail or AASP location, or the Apple Product will
be sent directly to your location from the ARS location.
(ii) Mail-in service. If Apple determines that your Apple Product is eligible
for mail-in service, Apple will send you prepaid waybills and if applicable,
packaging material, so that you may ship your Apple Product to an ARS
or AASP location in accordance with Apple’s instructions. Once service is
complete, the ARS or AASP location will return the Apple Product to you.
Apple will pay for shipping to and from your location if all instructions
are followed.
(iii) Do-it-yourself (DIY) parts service. DIY parts service allows you to
service your own Apple Product. If DIY parts service is available in the
circumstances, the following process will apply.
(a) Service where Apple requires return of the replaced product or part.
Apple may require a credit card authorization as security for the retail
price of the replacement product or part and applicable shipping costs. If
you are unable to provide credit card authorization, DIY parts service may
not be available to you and Apple will offer alternative arrangements
for service. Apple will ship a replacement product or part to you with
installation instructions, if applicable, and any requirements for the return
of the replaced product or part. If you follow the instructions, Apple will
cancel the credit card authorization, so you will not be charged for the
product or part and shipping to and from your location. If you fail to
return the replaced product or part as instructed or return a replaced
product or part that is ineligible for service, Apple will charge your credit
card for the authorized amount.
(b) Service where Apple does not require return of the replaced product
or part. Apple will ship you free of charge a replacement product or
part accompanied by instructions on installation, if applicable, and any
requirements for the disposal of the replaced product or part.
(c) Apple is not responsible for any labor costs you incur relating to DIY
parts service. Should you require further assistance, contact Apple at the
telephone number listed below.
Apple reserves the right to change the method by which Apple may
provide warranty service to you, and your Apple Product’s eligibility
to receive a particular method of service. Service will be limited to the
options available in the country where service is requested. Service
options, parts availability and response times may vary according to
country. You may be responsible for shipping and handling charges if
the Apple Product cannot be serviced in the country it is in. If you seek
service in a country that is not the original country of purchase, you will
comply with all applicable import and export laws and regulations and
be responsible for all custom duties, V.A.T. and other associated taxes
and charges. Where international service is available, Apple may repair
or replace products and parts with comparable products and parts that
comply with local standards.LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN THIS WARRANTY
AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, APPLE IS NOT
RESPONSIBLE FOR DIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL

HOWSOEVER CAUSED INCLUDING THE REPLACEMENT OF EQUIPMENT
AND PROPERTY, ANY COSTS OF RECOVERING, PROGRAMMING, OR
REPRODUCING ANY PROGRAM OR DATA STORED IN OR USED WITH THE
APPLE PRODUCT OR ANY FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THE CONFIDENTIALITY
OF INFORMATION STORED ON THE APPLE PRODUCT.
THE FOREGOING LIMITATION SHALL NOT APPLY TO DEATH OR PERSONAL
INJURY CLAIMS, OR ANY STATUTORY LIABILITY FOR INTENTIONAL AND
GROSS NEGLIGENT ACTS AND/OR OMISSIONS. APPLE DISCLAIMS ANY
REPRESENTATION THAT IT WILL BE ABLE TO REPAIR ANY APPLE PRODUCT
UNDER THIS WARRANTY OR REPLACE THE APPLE PRODUCT WITHOUT
RISK TO OR LOSS OF INFORMATION STORED IN THE APPLE PRODUCT.
SOME STATES (COUNTRIES AND PROVINCES) DO NOT ALLOW THE
EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY
TO YOU.

accordance with the Apple Customer Privacy Policy available at www.

GENERAL. No Apple reseller, agent, or employee is authorized to make
any modification, extension, or addition to this warranty. If any term
is held to be illegal or unenforceable, the legality or enforceability of
the remaining terms shall not be affected or impaired. This warranty
is governed by and construed under the laws of the country in which
the Apple Product purchase took place. Apple is identified at the end
of this document according to the country or region in which the

with the network.
Your iPhone may have been activated at the time of purchase. If it isn’t activated,
contact your iPhone retailer or cellular service provider.
For more information about iPhone, go to www.apple.com/iphone.
Installing the SIM Card
If your SIM card was not preinstalled, you must install the SIM card before you can use
iPhone.
SIM
card
SIM tray
SIM eject tool
Install the SIM card:
1 Insert the end of the SIM eject tool into the hole on the SIM tray.
Press firmly and push it straight in until the tray pops out. If you don’t have a SIM eject
tool, you can use the end of a paper clip.
2 Pull out the SIM tray and place the SIM card in the tray.
The angled corner of the SIM ensures that the card fits only the correct way in the tray.
3 With the tray aligned as shown, carefully replace the SIM tray containing the SIM card
in iPhone.
Registering iPhone
Registering iPhone with iTunes enables iTunes to identify your iPhone when it’s
connected to your computer and help you manage its contents. You can then sync
information with your computer and media from iTunes, and create backups of
iPhone’s contents and settings. You can create an iTunes Store account, or specify an
existing account, to enable purchases with iPhone. iTunes also records iPhone’s serial
number in the event you need it for service or in case of loss.
10 Chapter 1 Getting StartedRegister iPhone:
1 Download and install the latest version of iTunes from www.itunes.com/download.
2 Connect iPhone to a USB 2.0 port on your Mac or PC using the cable that came with
iPhone.
3 Follow the onscreen instructions in iTunes to register iPhone and sync iPhone with
your contacts, calendars, and bookmarks on your computer, and with music, video,
and other content from your iTunes library.
In the Set Up Your iPhone screen, select “Automatically sync contacts, calendars
and bookmarks” to configure those items to sync automatically when you connect
iPhone to your computer. You can also customize your sync settings in iTunes.
See the following section.
Setting Up iPhone Using VoiceOver
If you’re visually impaired, VoiceOver (available only on iPhone 3GS) can help you set
up iPhone without a sighted assistant. VoiceOver describes aloud what appears on
the screen, so you can use iPhone without seeing it. When you connect iPhone to
your computer, iTunes detects whether you’re using a compatible screen reader on
your computer, such as VoiceOver on a Mac or GW Micro Window-Eyes on a PC, and
automatically enables VoiceOver on iPhone. A sighted user can also enable VoiceOver
on iPhone for you, using Accessibility settings. See “Using VoiceOver” on page 187.
Note: VoiceOver isn’t available in all languages.
Syncing
With iPhone, you can have easy access to important information on your computer,
including your contacts, calendars, and even your browser bookmarks, as well as to
music, video, and other content in your iTunes library.
About Syncing
Syncing copies information and content between iPhone and your computer, keeping
it current and up-to-date, whether you make changes on iPhone or on your computer.
Chapter 1 Getting Started 11iTunes lets you specify the information and content on your computer that you want
to sync with iPhone. By default, iTunes syncs automatically with iPhone whenever you
connect iPhone to your computer.
You can also set up iPhone to sync your MobileMe and Microsoft Exchange accounts,
over the air. See “Mail, Contacts, and Calendar Accounts” on page 16.
Syncing with iTunes
You can set iTunes to sync any or all of the following:
• Contacts—names, phone numbers, addresses, email addresses, and more
• Calendars—appointments and events
• Email account settings
• Webpage bookmarks
• Notes (requires Mac OS X version 10.5.7 or later on a Mac, or Microsoft Outlook 2003
or 2007 on a PC)
• Ringtones
• Music and audiobooks
• Photos and videos (in your computer’s photo application or folder)
• iTunes U collections
• Podcasts
• Movies, TV shows, and music videos
• Applications downloaded from the iTunes Store
You can adjust sync settings whenever iPhone is connected to your computer.
Ringtones, music, audiobooks, podcasts, iTunes U collections, videos, and applications
can be synced from your iTunes library. If you don’t already have content in iTunes,
the iTunes Store (available in some countries) makes it easy to preview and download
content to iTunes. You can also add music to your iTunes library from your CDs. To
learn about iTunes and the iTunes Store, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.
Contacts, calendars, notes, and webpage bookmarks are synced with applications
on your computer, as described in the following section. Contacts and calendars are
synced both ways between your computer and iPhone. New entries or changes you
make on iPhone are synced to your computer, and vice versa. Notes and webpage
bookmarks are also synced both ways. Photos and videos (Mac only) can be synced
from an application or from a folder.
Email account settings are synced only from your computer’s email application to
iPhone. This allows you to customize your email accounts on iPhone without affecting
email account settings on your computer.
12 Chapter 1 Getting StartedNote: You can also set up email accounts directly on iPhone. See “Mail, Contacts, and
Calendar Accounts.”
Purchases you make on iPhone in the iTunes Store or the App Store are synced back
to your iTunes library. You can also purchase or download content and applications
directly from the iTunes Store on your computer, and then sync them to iPhone.
You can set iPhone to sync with only a portion of what’s on your computer.
For example, you might want to sync only a group of contacts from your address
book, or only unwatched video podcasts.
Important: You should be logged in to your own computer user account before
connecting iPhone.
Set up iTunes syncing:
1 Connect iPhone to your computer, and open iTunes (if it doesn’t open automatically).
2 In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar.
3 Configure the sync settings in each of the settings panes.
See the following section for descriptions of the panes.
4 Click Apply in the lower-right corner of the screen.
By default, “Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected” is selected.
iPhone Settings Panes in iTunes
The following sections provide an overview of each of the iPhone settings panes.
For more information, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.
Summary Pane
Select “Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected” to have iTunes sync iPhone
automatically whenever you connect it to your computer. Deselect this option if you
want to sync only by clicking the Sync button in iTunes. For more information about
preventing automatic syncing, see “Preventing Automatic Syncing” on page 15.
Chapter 1 Getting Started 13Select “Sync only checked songs and videos” if you want iTunes to skip unchecked
items in your iTunes library when syncing.
Select “Manually manage music and videos” to turn off automatic syncing in the Music
and Video settings panes. See “Manually Managing Content” on page 72.
Select “Encrypt iPhone backup” if you want to encrypt the information stored on your
computer when iTunes makes a backup. Encrypted backups are indicated by a padlock
icon, and a password is required to restore the information to iPhone. See “Backing Up
iPhone” on page 202.
Click Configure Universal Access to turn on Accessibility features (available only on
iPhone 3GS). See Chapter 25,“Accessibility,” on page 182.
Info Pane
The Info pane lets you configure the sync settings for your contacts, calendars, email
accounts, and web browser.
• Contacts
Sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Yahoo! Address
Book, and Google Contacts on a Mac, or with Yahoo! Address Book, Google Contacts,
Windows Address Book (Outlook Express), Windows Vista Contacts, or Microsoft
Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync contacts with multiple
applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with only one application at a time.)
If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your
new login information when you change your Yahoo! ID or password after you’ve
set up syncing.
• Calendars
Sync calendars from applications such as iCal on a Mac, or from Microsoft Outlook
2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync calendars with multiple applications.
On a PC, you can sync calendars with only one application at a time.)
• Mail Accounts
Sync email account settings from Mail on a Mac, and from Microsoft Outlook 2003
or 2007 or Outlook Express on a PC. Account settings are transferred only from your
computer to iPhone. Changes you make to an email account on iPhone don’t affect
the account on your computer.
Note: The password for your Yahoo! email account isn’t saved on your computer,
so it can’t be synced and must be entered on iPhone. In Settings, choose “Mail,
Contacts, Calendars,” tap your Yahoo! account, and enter the password.
• Web Browser
You can sync bookmarks on iPhone with Safari on a Mac, or with Safari or Microsoft
Internet Explorer on a PC.
14 Chapter 1 Getting Started• Notes
Sync notes in the Notes application on iPhone with notes in Mail on a Mac or with
Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you must have Mac OS version
10.5.7 or later installed to sync notes.)
• Advanced
These options let you replace the information on iPhone with the information on
your computer during the next sync.
Applications Pane
Use the Applications pane to specify which App Store applications to sync on
iPhone, or to arrange your Home screen (requires iTunes 9 or later). Any applications
downloaded directly to iPhone are automatically backed up to your iTunes library
when you sync. If you manually delete an application on iPhone, you can reinstall it
from this pane as long as it was previously synced.
Ringtones Pane
Use the Ringtones pane to select the ringtones you want to sync to iPhone.
Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, and iTunes U Panes
Use these panes to specify the media you want to sync. You can sync all music, movies,
TV shows, podcasts, and iTunes U collections, or select the content you want on
iPhone.
If you want to watch rented movies on iPhone, transfer them to iPhone using the
Movies pane in iTunes.
If there’s not enough room on iPhone for all the media you’ve specified, iTunes can
create a special playlist and set it to sync with iPhone.
Note: The iTunes U pane appears only in iTunes 9 or later. In earlier versions of iTunes,
iTunes U content appeared in the Podcasts pane.
Photos Pane
You can sync photos and videos (Mac only, iTunes 9 required) with iPhoto 4.0.3 or later,
or Aperture on a Mac; or with Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 or later on a PC. You can
also sync photos and videos in any folder on your computer that contains images.
Preventing Automatic Syncing
You can prevent iPhone from syncing automatically when you connect iPhone to a
computer other than the one you usually sync with.
Turn off automatic syncing for iPhone: Connect iPhone to your computer. In iTunes,
select iPhone in the sidebar, then click the Summary tab. Deselect “Automatically sync
when this iPhone is connected.” You can still sync by clicking the Sync button.
Chapter 1 Getting Started 15Prevent automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods: In iTunes choose iTunes >
Preferences (on a Mac) or Edit > Preferences (on a PC), click Devices, and select “Disable
automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods.”
If this checkbox is selected, iPhone won’t sync automatically, even if “Automatically
sync when this iPhone is connected” is selected in the Summary pane.
Prevent automatic syncing one time, without changing settings: Open iTunes,
connect iPhone to your computer, then press and hold Command-Option (on a Mac)
or Shift-Control (on a PC) until you see iPhone appear in the sidebar.
Sync manually: In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar, then click Sync in the bottomright corner of the window. Or, if you’ve changed any sync settings, click Apply.
Mail, Contacts, and Calendar Accounts
iPhone works with MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, and many of the most popular
email systems.
Setting Up Accounts
MobileMe and Microsoft Exchange provide not only email, but contact and calendar
information that can be synced to iPhone automatically, over the air. MobileMe can
also sync your bookmarks on iPhone with Safari on a Mac, or with Safari or Microsoft
Internet Explorer on a PC. You set up MobileMe, Exchange, and other email accounts
directly on iPhone.
iPhone uses the Exchange ActiveSync protocol to sync email, calendars, and contacts
with the following versions of Microsoft Exchange:
• Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2
• Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1
For many popular email accounts, iPhone automatically enters most of the settings
for you.
If you don’t already have an email account, you can get a free account online at
www.yahoo.com, www.google.com, or www.aol.com. You can also try MobileMe,
free for 60 days. Go to www.me.com.
Set up an account on iPhone:
1 From the iPhone Home screen, tap Settings.
2 Tap “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” then tap Add Account.
3 Tap an account type:
• Microsoft Exchange
• MobileMe
• Google email
16 Chapter 1 Getting Started• Yahoo! Mail
• AOL
• Other
4 Enter your account information and tap Save.
Your service provider or system administrator can provide the account settings you
need.
Exchange accounts: Enter your complete email address, domain (optional), user name,
password, and a description. The description can be whatever you like.
iPhone supports Microsoft’s Autodiscovery service, which uses your user name and
password to determine the address of the Exchange server. If the server’s address
can’t be determined, you’re asked to enter it. (Enter the complete address in the Server
field.) Once you connect to the Exchange server, you may be prompted to change your
passcode to match the policies set on the server.
5 If you’re setting up a MobileMe or Microsoft Exchange account, tap the items you want
to use on iPhone—mail, contacts, calendars, and bookmarks (MobileMe only).
MobileMe includes the Find My iPhone feature that helps you locate iPhone if it’s been
lost or stolen, and remotely lock, set a passcode, or erase the information on iPhone if
necessary. See “Security Features” on page 45.
If you enable Find My iPhone for your MobileMe account, make sure that Push is
turned on for Fetch New Data. In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars” > Fetch
New Data, and if Push is off, tap to turn it on.
For Exchange accounts, you can set how many days of email you want to sync to
iPhone.
If you already have contact or calendar information on iPhone when you enable the
account, iPhone asks what you want to do with existing information on iPhone. You
can choose to merge the existing data into your MobileMe or Exchange account. If
you don’t merge the data, you can choose to keep it in a separate account on iPhone
(the account is labeled “On My iPhone”), or delete it. Existing bookmarks can only be
merged or deleted.
Similarly, when you disable contacts or calendars in an MobileMe or Exchange account,
or if you delete an account, iPhone asks if you want to keep information or delete it.
You can add contacts using an LDAP account if your company or organization
supports it. See “Adding Contacts” on page 176.
You can subscribe to CalDAV or iCal (.ics) calendars. See “Subscribing to and Sharing
Calendars” on page 93.
Chapter 1 Getting Started 17Push Accounts
MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, and Yahoo! Mail are known as “push” accounts. When
new information is available, such as the arrival of an email message, the information
is automatically delivered (pushed) to iPhone. (In contrast, “fetch” services require your
email software to periodically check with your service provider to see if new messages
have arrived, and then request them to be delivered.) MobileMe and Exchange also
use push to sync your contacts, calendars, and bookmarks (MobileMe only) if you have
those items selected in the account settings.
Synced information is transferred automatically over your wireless connection; you
don’t need to connect iPhone to your computer to sync. If you don’t have a cellular
connection, iPhone can receive pushed data over a Wi-Fi connection when iPhone is
awake (the screen is on, or iPhone is connected to your computer or a power adapter).
Installing Configuration Profiles
If you’re in an enterprise environment, you may be able to set up accounts and
other items on iPhone by installing a configuration profile. Configuration profiles
provide a way for system administrators to quickly set up your iPhone to work with
the information systems at your company, school, or organization. For example, a
configuration profile might set up your iPhone to access the Microsoft Exchange
servers at work, enabling iPhone to access your Exchange email, calendars, and
contacts.
Configuration profiles can configure multiple settings on iPhone all at once. For
example, a configuration profile can set up your Microsoft Exchange account, VPN
account, and certificates for secure access to your company’s network and information.
A configuration profile may turn on the Passcode Lock, requiring you to create and
enter a passcode for using iPhone.
Your system administrator may distribute configuration profiles by email or by putting
them on a secure webpage. A system administrator may also install a configuration
profile directly on iPhone for you.
Install a configuration profile:
1 Using iPhone, open the email message or download the configuration profile from the
website provided by your system administrator.
2 When the configuration profile opens, tap Install.
3 Enter passwords and other information as requested.
Important: You may be asked to verify that the configuration profile is trusted. If in
doubt, consult your system administrator before installing a configuration profile.
18 Chapter 1 Getting StartedSettings provided by a configuration profile cannot be altered. If you want to change
these settings, you must first remove the configuration profile or install an updated
configuration profile.
Remove a profile: In Settings, choose General > Profile, then select the configuration
profile and tap Remove.
Removing a configuration profile deletes the settings and all other information
installed by the configuration profile from iPhone.
Disconnecting iPhone from Your Computer
Unless iPhone is syncing with your computer, you can disconnect it from your
computer at any time.
When iPhone is syncing with your computer, iPhone shows “Sync in progress.” If you
disconnect iPhone before it finishes syncing, some data may not get transferred. When
iPhone finishes syncing, iTunes shows “iPhone sync is complete.”
Cancel a sync: Drag the slider on iPhone.
If you get a call during a sync, the sync is canceled automatically and you can unplug
iPhone to answer the call. Connect iPhone after the call to finish syncing.

whenever the network is in range. If more than one previously used network is in
range, iPhone joins the one last used.
When iPhone is connected to a Wi-Fi network, the Wi-Fi icon in the status bar at the
top of the screen shows the connection strength. The more bars you see, the stronger
the connection.
For information about configuring Wi-Fi settings, see “Wi-Fi” on page 139.
Cellular Data Network Access

iPhone syncs with iTunes on your computer to get songs, videos, and other content
you’ve collected in your iTunes library. For information about adding music and other
media to your iTunes library, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.
Getting Music, Video, and More
To get music, video, and other content onto iPhone, you can set up iTunes on your
computer to automatically sync content in your library, or you can manually manage
the media you put on iPhone.
Syncing Content from iTunes
You can transfer music, video, and more onto iPhone by syncing content from iTunes.
You can sync all of your media, or you can select specific songs, videos, podcasts, and
iTunes U collections.
Set iTunes to sync iPod content:
1 Connect iPhone to your computer.
2 In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar.
3 On the Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, and iTunes U tabs, select the content you
want to sync to iPhone. For example, you could set iTunes to sync selected music
playlists and the three most recent episodes of your favorite video podcast.
4 Click Apply.
To set iTunes to sync iPod content and other info automatically, click the Summary tab
and select “Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected.”
Important: If you delete an item from iTunes, it will also be deleted from iPhone the
next time you sync.
71Only songs and videos encoded in formats that iPhone supports are transferred to
iPhone. For information about which formats iPhone supports, see “Song, Video, or
Other Items Won’t Play” on page 200.
If there are more songs in your iTunes library than can fit on your iPhone, iTunes
offers to create a special playlist to sync with iPhone. iTunes fills the playlist with
random selections from your library. You can add or delete songs from the playlist
and sync again.
If you listen to part of a podcast or audiobook, your place in the story is included if you
sync the content with iTunes. If you started listening to the story on iPhone, you can
pick up where you left off using iTunes on your computer—or vice versa.
For more information about using iTunes to get music and other media onto your
computer, see “What You Need” on page 9.
Manually Managing Content
The manually managing feature lets you choose just the music, video, and podcasts
you want to have on iPhone.
Set up iPhone for manually managing content:
1 Connect iPhone to your computer.
2 In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar.
3 Click the Summary tab and select “Manually manage music and videos.”
4 Click Apply.
Add items to iPhone: Drag a song, video, podcast, or playlist in your iTunes library to
iPhone (in the sidebar). Shift-click or Command-click (Mac) or Control-click (Windows)
to select multiple items to add at the same time.
iTunes syncs the content immediately. If you deselect “Manually manage music and
videos,” the content you added manually is removed from iPhone the next time iTunes
syncs content.
Remove items from iPhone: With iPhone connected to your computer, select the
iPhone icon in the iTunes sidebar. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the icon
to show the contents. Select a content area, such as Music or Movies, then select the
items you want to delete and press the Delete key on the keyboard.
Removing an item from iPhone doesn’t delete it from your iTunes library.
Purchasing and Downloading Content from the iTunes Store
You can use the iTunes Store on iPhone to purchase and download songs, albums,
TV shows, movies, music videos, ringtones, and audiobooks directly to iPhone. You can
also stream and download audio and video podcasts, as well as iTunes U content.
See “About the iTunes Store” on page 160.
72 Chapter 6 iPodTransferring Purchased Content to Another Computer

computer to an iTunes library on another authorized computer. The computer must be
authorized to play content from your iTunes Store account. To authorize the computer,
open iTunes on the computer and choose Store > Authorize Computer.
Transfer purchased content: Connect iPhone to the other computer. iTunes asks if
you want to transfer purchased content.
Converting Videos for iPhone

Convert a video to work with iPhone: Select the video in your iTunes library and
choose Advanced > “Create iPod or iPhone Version.” Then add the converted video to
iPhone.

library. A Genius Mix is a selection of songs of the same kind of music. Genius Mixes
are recreated each time you listen to them, so they’re always new and fresh.
You can create Genius playlists in iTunes and sync them to iPhone. You can also create
and save Genius playlists directly on iPhone.
Chapter 6 iPod 79Genius Mixes are created in iTunes. iTunes creates different mixes depending on the
variety of music you have in your iTunes library. For example, you may have Genius
Mixes that highlight R&B songs, or Alternative Rock songs.
To use Genius on iPhone, first turn on Genius in iTunes, then sync iPhone with iTunes.
Genius Mixes are synced automatically, unless you manually manage your music and
choose which mixes you want to sync in iTunes. Genius is a free service, but requires
an iTunes Store account.
Genius Mixes require iTunes 9 or later. When you sync a Genius Mix, iTunes may select
and sync songs from your library that you haven’t otherwise chosen to sync.

song.
Delete a saved Genius playlist: In a playlist that you saved directly on iPhone, tap Edit,

WARNING: For important information about driving and navigating safely, see the
Important Product Information Guide at www.apple.com/support/manuals/iphone.
Maps provides street maps, satellite photos, a hybrid view, and street views of locations
in many of the world’s countries. You can get detailed driving, public transit, or walking
directions and traffic information. Find and track your current (approximate) location,
and use your current location to get driving directions to or from another place. The
built-in digital compass lets you see which way you’re facing. (iPhone 3GS only).
Important: Maps, digital compass (iPhone 3GS only), directions, and location-based
applications provided by Apple depend on data collected and services provided by
third parties. These data services are subject to change and may not be available in
all geographic areas, resulting in maps, compass headings, directions, or locationbased information that may be unavailable, inaccurate, or incomplete. Compare the
information provided on iPhone to your surroundings and defer to posted signs to
resolve any discrepancies. In order to provide your location, data is collected in a form
that doesn’t personally identify you. If you don’t want such data collected, don’t use
the feature. Not using this feature won’t impact the non–location-based functionality
of your iPhone.

Chapter 13 Maps 115Your current (approximate) location is indicated by a blue marker. If your location can’t
be determined precisely, a blue circle also appears around the marker. The size of the
circle depends on how precisely your location can be determined—the smaller the
circle, the greater the precision.
As you move around, iPhone updates your location, adjusting the map so that the
location indicator remains in the center of the screen. If you tap again or drag the
map, iPhone continues to update your location but stops centering it, so the location
information may move off the screen.
iPhone uses Location Services to determine your location. Location Services uses
available information from cellular network data, local Wi-Fi networks (if you have Wi-Fi
turned on), and GPS ( iPhone 3G or later; GPS not available in all locations). This feature
isn’t available in all areas.
If Location Services is turned off, you’ll be prompted to turn it on. You can’t find and
track your current location if Location Services is turned off. See “Location Services” on
page 144.

Getting Compass Readings
The built-in compass (iPhone 3GS only) shows which direction you’re facing, along
with the geographical coordinates of your current location. You can choose magnetic
north, or have Compass adjust the declination to show true north.
Important: The accuracy of digital compass headings may be negatively affected by
magnetic or other environmental interference, including interference caused by the
close proximity of the magnets contained in the iPhone earbuds. The digital compass
should only be used for basic navigation assistance and should not be solely relied on
to determine precise locations, proximity, distance, or direction.
The compass needs to be calibrated the first time you use it, and may need to be
calibrated occasionally after that. iPhone alerts you whenever calibration is needed.
Calibrate iPhone: Wave iPhone in a figure eight. You may be asked to move away
from a source of interference.
173See which way you’re facing: Hold iPhone level to the ground. The compass needle
rotates to point north. Your current direction appears at the top of the screen.
The coordinates of your current location are displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Switch between true north and magnetic north: Tap and tap the setting
you want.

Accessibility Features
In addition to the many features that make iPhone easy to use for everyone,
accessibility features (available only on iPhone 3GS) are designed to make it easier
for users with visual, auditory, or other physical disabilities to use iPhone. These
accessibility features include:
• VoiceOver
• Zoom
• White on Black
• Mono Audio
• Speak Auto-text
With the exception of VoiceOver, these accessibility features work with all iPhone
applications, including third-party applications you download from the App Store.
VoiceOver works with all applications that come preinstalled on iPhone. In addition,
third-party developers can use the iPhone Accessibility API to make their applications
accessible for VoiceOver users.
For more information about the accessibility features of iPhone, go to
www.apple.com/accessibility.
Each accessibility feature can be turned on or off in the Accessibility settings on
iPhone. You can also turn accessibility features on or off in iTunes when iPhone is
connected to your computer.
Turn accessibility features on or off in iTunes:
1 Connect iPhone to your computer.
2 In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar.
3 In the Summary pane, click Configure Universal Access in the Options section.
1824 Select the accessibility features that you want to use and click OK.
VoiceOver
VoiceOver describes aloud what appears onscreen, so that you can use iPhone without
seeing it. VoiceOver speaks in the language specified in International settings, which
may be influenced by the Region Locale setting.
Note: VoiceOver isn’t available in all languages.
VoiceOver tells you about each element on the screen as it’s selected. When an
element is selected, it’s enclosed by a black rectangle (for the benefit of those who can
see the screen) and VoiceOver speaks the name or describes the item. The enclosing
rectangle is referred to as the VoiceOver cursor. If text is selected, VoiceOver reads the
text. If a control (such as a button or switch) is selected and Speak Hints is turned on,
VoiceOver may tell you the action of the item or provide instructions for you—for
example, “double-tap to open.”
When you go to a new screen, VoiceOver plays a sound and automatically selects and
speaks the first element of the screen (typically, the item in the upper-left corner).
VoiceOver also lets you know when the display changes to landscape or portrait,
and when the screen is locked or unlocked.
Setting Up VoiceOver
Important: VoiceOver changes the gestures used to control iPhone. Once VoiceOver
is turned on, you have to use VoiceOver gestures to operate iPhone—even to turn
VoiceOver off again to resume standard operation.
Turn VoiceOver on or off: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and
tap the VoiceOver On/Off switch.
You can also set Triple-click Home to turn VoiceOver on or off. See “Triple-click
Home” on page 191.
Note: You cannot use VoiceOver and Zoom at the same time.

and tap the Speak Hints On/Off switch. Spoken hints are turned on by default.
Set the VoiceOver speaking rate: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility >
VoiceOver, and adjust the Speaking Rate slider.
You can choose what kind of feedback you get when you type. You can set VoiceOver
to speak characters, words, both, or nothing. If you choose to hear both characters and
words, VoiceOver speaks each character as you type it, then speaks the whole word
when you finish it by entering a space or punctuation.
Choose typing feedback: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver >
Typing Feedback, then choose Characters, Words, Characters and Words, or Nothing.
Change the language spoken by VoiceOver: In Settings, choose General >

Practice gestures: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Practice
Gestures, then tap Practice VoiceOver Gestures. Practice the gestures described in
“VoiceOver Gestures,” below. When you’re finished practicing, tap Done.
VoiceOver Gestures
When VoiceOver is turned on, the standard touchscreen gestures have different effects.
These and some additional gestures allow you to move around the screen and to
control the individual elements when they’re selected. VoiceOver gestures include
using two and three fingers to tap or flick. For best results when using two- and threefinger gestures, relax and let your fingers touch the screen with some space between
your fingers.
You can use standard gestures when VoiceOver is turned on, by double-tapping and
holding your finger on the screen. A series of tones indicates that normal gestures
are in force. They remain in effect until you lift your finger. Then VoiceOver gestures
resume.
You can use many different techniques to enter VoiceOver gestures. For example, you
can enter a two-finger tap using two fingers from one hand, or one finger from each
hand. You can also use your thumbs. Try different techniques to discover which works
best for you.
If your gestures don’t work, try quicker movements, especially for double-tap and
flicking gestures. To flick, try quickly brushing the screen with your finger or fingers.
You can practice VoiceOver gestures in Settings: choose General > Accessibility >
VoiceOver > Practice Gestures and tap the Practice VoiceOver Gestures button.
Here’s a summary of key VoiceOver gestures:
184 Chapter 25 AccessibilityNavigate and Read
• Tap: Speak item.
• Flick right or left: Select the next or previous item.
• Flick up or down: Depends on the Rotor Control setting. See “Rotor Control” on
page 185.
• Two-finger tap: Stop speaking the current item.
• Two-finger flick up: Read all from top of screen.
• Two-finger flick down: Read all from current position.
• Three-finger flick up or down: Scroll one page at a time.
• Three-finger flick right or left: Go to the next or previous page (such as the Home
screen, Stocks, or Safari).
• Three-finger tap: Speak the scroll status (which page or rows are visible).
Select and Activate
• Double-tap: Activate selected item.
• Touch an item with one finger, tap the screen with another finger (“split-tapping”):
Activate item.
• Double-tap and hold (1 second) + standard gesture: Use a standard gesture.
The double-tap and hold gesture tells iPhone to interpret the subsequent gesture as
standard. For example, you can double-tap and hold, then without lifting your finger,
drag your finger to slide a switch.
• Two-finger double tap: Answer or end a call. Play or pause in iPod, YouTube, Voice
Memos, or Photos. Take a picture (Camera). Start or pause recording in Camera or
Voice Memos. Start or stop the stopwatch.
• Three-finger double tap: Mute or unmute VoiceOver.
• Three-finger triple tap: Turn the display on or off.
Do single-finger flicking gestures quickly, to distinguish them from dragging gestures.
Rotor Control
The rotor control is an invisible dial that you can use to change the results of up and
down flick gestures when VoiceOver is turned on.
Operate the rotor: Rotate two fingers on the iPhone screen to “turn” the dial to
choose between options.
Chapter 25 Accessibility 185The effect of the rotor depends on what you’re doing. For example, if you’re reading
text in an email you received, you can use the rotor to switch between hearing text
spoken word-by-word or character-by-character when you flick up or down. If you’re
browsing a webpage, use the rotor to choose whether you hear text word-by-word
or character-by-character, hear just the headers, hear just the links (all of them, visited
links, or links not yet visited), hear form elements, or hear descriptions of images. In
other words, you can use the rotor setting to hear all the text, or to jump from one
element to another of a certain type, such as headers or links.
Rotor options depend on the context of what you’re doing.
Reading text
• Select and hear text character-by-character
• Select and hear text word-by-word
Browsing a webpage
• Select and hear text character-by-character
• Select and hear text word-by-word
• Select and hear headers
• Select and hear links
• Select and hear form controls
• Select and hear visited links
• Select and hear links not visited
• Select and hear images
• Select and hear static text
• Zoom in or out
Entering text
• Move insertion point and hear text character-by-character
• Move insertion point and text word-by-word
• Text editing functions
• Auto-text
Using a control (such as the spinner for setting the time in Clock)
• Select and hear value character-by-character
• Select and hear value word-by-word
• Adjust the value of the control object
186 Chapter 25 AccessibilityUsing VoiceOver
Select items on the screen: Drag your finger over the screen. VoiceOver identifies
each element as you touch it. You can also move systematically from one element to
the next by flicking left or right with a single finger. Elements are selected from leftto-right, top-to-bottom. Flick right to go to the next element, or flick left to go to the
previous element.
“Tap” a selected item when VoiceOver is turned on: Double-tap anywhere on the
screen.
Speak the text of an element, character by character or word by word: With the
element selected, flick up or down with one finger. Flick down to read the next
character, or flick up to read the previous character. Twist the rotor control to read
word by word.
Adjust a slider: With a single finger, flick up to increase the setting or down to
decrease the setting. VoiceOver announces the setting as you adjust it.
Scroll a list or area of the screen: Flick up or down with three fingers. Flick down
to page down through the list, or flick up to page up through the list. When paging
through a list, VoiceOver speaks the range of items displayed (for example, “showing
rows 5 through 10”).
You can also scroll continuously through a list, instead of paging through it. Doubletap and hold. When you hear a series of tones, you can move your finger up or down
to scroll the list. Continuous scrolling stops when you lift your finger.
Use a list index: Some lists have an alphabetical index along the right side. The index
cannot be selected by flicking between elements; you must touch the index directly
to select it. With the index selected, flick up or down to move along the index. You can
also double-tap, then slide your finger up or down.
Unlock iPhone: Select the Unlock switch, then double-tap the screen.
Rearrange the Home screen: On the Home screen select the icon you want to move.
Double-tap and hold, then drag the icon. VoiceOver speaks the row and column
position as your drag the icon. Release the icon when it’s in the location you want. You
can drag additional icons. Drag an item to the left or right edge of the screen to move
it to another page of the Home screen. When you’re finished rearranging the icons,
press the Home button.
Chapter 25 Accessibility 187Mute VoiceOver Double-tap with three fingers. Double-tap again
with three fingers to turn speaking back on.
To turn off only VoiceOver sounds, set the
Ring/Silent switch to Silent.
Stop speaking an item Tap once with two fingers. Tap again with
two fingers to resume speaking. Speaking
automatically resumes when you select
another item.
Turn off the display while you use VoiceOver Triple-tap with three fingers. Triple-tap again with
three fingers to turn on the display again.
Speak entire screen from the top Flick up with two fingers.
Speak from current item to bottom of screen Flick down with two fingers.
Status information about iPhone can be heard by touching the top of the screen.
This can include the time, battery life, Wi-Fi signal strength, and more.
Entering and Editing Text
When you select a text field with VoiceOver, you can use the onscreen keyboard to
enter text. You can use the editing features of iPhone to cut, copy, or paste in the
text field.
Note: Safari doesn’t support copying webpage content. The editing features work only
in editable text fields.
Enter text:
1 Use VoiceOver to select an editable text field, then double tap to display the insertion
point and bring up the onscreen keyboard. If the field already contains text, the
insertion point is placed at the beginning or at the end of the text. Double-tap again
to place the insertion point at the opposite end. VoiceOver tells you the position of the
insertion point.
The insertion point and onscreen keyboard may appear automatically when you select
a text field. VoiceOver announces when you’re in editing mode.
2 To type, select a key on the keyboard by flicking left or right, then double-tap to
enter the character. Or drag you finger around the keyboard to select a key, and,
while holding the key with one finger, tap the screen with another finger to enter the
character. VoiceOver speaks the key when it’s selected, and again when it’s entered.
To enter an accented character, double-tap and hold until you hear a sound that
indicates the alternate characters have appeared, then drag left or right to select and
hear the choices. Release your finger to enter the current selection.
188 Chapter 25 AccessibilityMove the insertion point: Flick up or down to move the insertion point forward or
backward in the text. VoiceOver makes a sound when the insertion point moves, and
speaks the character that the insertion point moved across. Use the rotor to choose
whether you want to move the insertion point by character or by word.
Select text: Use the rotor to choose edit. Flick up or down to choose between the
Select and Select All functions, then double tap. If you chose Select, the word closest
to the insertion point is selected when you double-tap. If you chose Select All, the
entire text is selected.
Pinch to increase or decrease the selection.
Cut, Copy, or Paste: Make sure the rotor is set to edit. With text selected, flick up or
down to choose Cut, Copy, or Paste, then double-tap.
Undo: Shake iPhone, flick left or right to choose the action to undo, then double-tap.
Using Maps
With VoiceOver, you can zoom in or out, select pins, and get information about
locations.
Zoom in or out: Use the rotor to choose zoom mode, then flick up or down to zoom
in or out.
Select a pin: Touch a pin, or flick left or right to move from one item to another.
Get information about a location: With a pin selected, double-tap to display the
information flag. Flick left or right to select the flag, then double-tap to display the
information page.
Editing Videos and Voice Memos
You can use VoiceOver gestures to trim Camera videos and Voice Memo recordings.
Trim a voice memo: On the Voice Memos screen, select the button to the right of the
memo you want to trim, then double-tap. Then select Trim Memo and double-tap.
Select the beginning or end of the trim tool. Flick up to drag to the right, or flick down
to drag to the left. VoiceOver announces the amount of time the current position will
trim from the recording. To execute the trim, select Trim Voice Memo and double-tap.
Trim a video: While viewing a video, double-tap the screen to display the video
controls. Select the beginning or end of the trim tool. Then flick up to drag to the right,
or flick down to drag to the left. VoiceOver announces the amount of time the current
position will trim from the recording. To execute the trim, select Trim and double-tap.
Zoom
Many iPhone applications let you zoom in and out specific elements. For example,
you can double-tap or use the pinch gesture to expand webpage columns in Safari.
Zoom is a special accessibility feature that lets you magnify the entire screen of any
application you’re using to help you see what’s on the display.
Chapter 25 Accessibility 189Turn Zoom on or off: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility > Zoom and tap the
Zoom On/Off switch.
Note: You cannot use VoiceOver and Zoom at the same time.
Zoom in or out: Double-tap the screen with three fingers. By default, the screen is
magnified by 200 percent. If you manually change the magnification (by using the tapand-drag gesture, described below), iPhone automatically returns to that magnification
when you zoom in by double-tapping with three fingers.
Increase magnification: With three fingers, tap and drag toward the top of the
screen (to increase magnification) or toward the bottom of the screen (to decrease
magnification). The tap-and-drag gesture is similar to a double-tap, except you don’t
lift your fingers on the second tap—instead, drag your fingers on the screen. Once you
start dragging, you can drag with a single finger.
Move around the screen: When zoomed in, drag or flick the screen with three fingers.
Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single finger so that you can see more
of the screen. Hold a single finger near the edge of the display to pan to that side of
the screen image. Move your finger closer to the edge to pan more quickly. When you
open a new screen, Zoom always goes to the top-middle of the screen.
White on Black
Use White on Black to invert the colors on the iPhone display, which may make it
easier to read the screen. The screen looks like a photographic negative when White
on Black is turned on.
Invert the screen’s colors: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the
“White on Black” switch.
Mono Audio
Mono Audio combines the sound of the left and right channels into a mono signal
played on both sides. This enables users with hearing impairment in one ear to hear
the entire sound signal with the other ear.
Turn Mono Audio on or off: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the
Mono Audio switch.
Speak Auto-text
Speak Auto-text speaks the text corrections and suggestions iPhone makes when
you’re typing.
Turn Speak Auto-text on or off: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap
the Speak Auto-text switch.
Speak Auto-text also works with VoiceOver or Zoom.

Triple-click Home provides an easy way to turn some of the Accessibility features on
or off when you press the Home button quickly three times. You can set Triple-click
Home to turn VoiceOver on or off, turn White on Black on or off, or present the

format 1.
If you have a song or video in your iTunes library that isn’t supported by iPhone,
you may be able to convert it to a format iPhone supports. See iTunes Help for more
information.
iTunes Stores
iTunes Store Isn’t Available
To use the iTunes Store, iPhone must be connected to the Internet. See “Connecting to
the Internet” on page 40. The iTunes Store isn’t available in all countries.
Can’t Purchase Content
To purchase content from the iTunes Store or App Store, you must have an iTunes
Store account. Open iTunes on your computer and choose Store > Create Account. You
can also set up an account on iPhone. See “Viewing Account Information” on page 166.
Note: The iTunes Store is available only in some countries.
Removing the SIM Card
If you need to send your iPhone in for service, or if you want to loan your iPhone to
someone and you still want to be able to make calls, you may be able to use the SIM
card inside iPhone with another phone.
Appendix A Troubleshooting 201Remove the SIM card: Insert the end of the SIM eject tool (or a small paper clip) into
the hole on the SIM tray. Press firmly and push it straight in until the tray pops out.

Backing Up iPhone
iTunes creates backups of settings, downloaded applications and data, and other
information on iPhone. You can use a backup to restore these items to your iPhone
after a software restore or to transfer the information to another iPhone.
Backing up iPhone or restoring from a backup is not the same as syncing content
and other items (such as music, podcasts, ringtones, photos, videos, and applications
that you download via iTunes) with your iTunes library. Backups include settings,
downloaded applications and data, and other information that resides on iPhone.
You can restore these items from a backup using iTunes, but you may also have to sync
your iTunes library content again.
Applications downloaded from the App Store are backed up the next time you sync
with iTunes. Afterwards, only application data is backed up when you sync with iTunes.
Creating Backups
Backups can be created in the following ways:
• Once iPhone has been configured to sync with a particular computer, iTunes
automatically makes a backup of iPhone on that computer when you sync. iTunes
won’t automatically back up an iPhone that isn’t configured to sync with that
computer. If you’ve configured iPhone to automatically sync with iTunes on a
specific computer, iTunes will back up iPhone every time you connect it to that
computer. Automatic syncing is turned on by default. iTunes only makes one backup
each time you connect, even if you sync multiple times before disconnecting.
• If you choose to update the software on iPhone, iTunes will back up iPhone
automatically, even if it isn’t configured to sync with iTunes on that computer.
• If you choose to restore the software on iPhone, iTunes asks if you want to back up
iPhone before restoring.
If you use a Bluetooth headset or car kit with iPhone and you restore settings,
you must pair the Bluetooth device with iPhone again to use it.
202 Appendix A TroubleshootingFor more information about backups, including the settings and information stored in
a backup, go to www.apple.com/support and search for HT1766.
Restoring from a Backup
You can restore the settings, application data, and other information from a backup,
or use this feature to transfer these items to another iPhone.
Restore iPhone from a backup:
1 Connect iPhone to the computer you normally sync with.
2 In iTunes, Control-click iPhone in the sidebar and choose “Restore from Backup” from
the menu that appears.
3 Choose the backup that you want to restore from the pop-up menu, then click Restore.
If your backup is encrypted, you’ll need to enter your password.
After restoring from a backup, previous data is no longer accessible via the iPhone
user interface, but it isn’t erased from your iPhone. For information about erasing all
content and settings, see “Resetting iPhone” on page 149.
Important: Restoring iPhone from a backup restores all data in the backup, including
data for other applications. If you choose an old backup, restoring from it could replace
the data for applications with data that is not current.
Removing a Backup
You can remove a backup of iPhone from the list of backups in iTunes. You may want
to do this, for example, if a backup was created on someone else’s computer.
Remove a backup:
1 In iTunes, open iTunes Preferences.
• Windows: Choose Edit > Preferences.
• Mac: Choose iTunes > Preferences.
2 Click Devices (iPhone does not need to be connected).
3 Select the backup you want to remove, then click Delete Backup.
4 Confirm you wish to remove the selected backup by clicking Delete Backup.
5 Click OK to close the iTunes Preferences Window.
Appendix A Troubleshooting 203Updating and Restoring iPhone Software
You can use iTunes to update or reinstall iPhone software, restore default settings,
and delete all data on iPhone.
• If you update, the iPhone software is updated. Your downloaded applications,
settings, and data aren’t affected.
Note: In some cases, an update may also include restoring iPhone.
• If you restore, the latest version of iPhone software is reinstalled, settings are restored
to their defaults, and data stored on iPhone is deleted, including downloaded
applications, songs, videos, contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other
data. If you’ve backed up iPhone with iTunes on your computer, you can restore data
from the backup at the end of the restore process.
Deleted data is no longer accessible via the iPhone user interface, but isn’t erased from
your iPhone. For information about erasing all content and settings, see “Resetting
iPhone” on page 149.
Update or restore iPhone:
1 Make sure you have an Internet connection and have installed the latest version of
iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes.
2 Connect iPhone to your computer.
3 Select iPhone in the iTunes sidebar and click the Summary tab.
4 Click “Check for Update.” iTunes tells you if there’s a newer version of the iPhone
software available.
5 Click Update to install the latest version of the software. Or click Restore to restore.
Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the restore process.
For more information about updating and restoring iPhone software, go to
www.apple.com/support and search for HT1414.

information that came with your Apple product. Or, consult an experienced radio/television
technician for additional suggestions. You may find the following booklet helpful: Interference
Handbook (stock number 004-000-00493-1). This booklet, prepared by the Federal
Communications Commission, is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office,
Washington, DC 20402.
IMPORTANT Changes or modifications to this product not authorized by Apple Computer, Inc.,
could void the FCC Certification and negate your authority to operate the product.
This product was tested for FCC compliance under conditions that included the use of Apple
peripheral devices and Apple shielded cables and connectors between system components. It is
important that you use Apple peripheral devices and shielded cables and connectors between
system components to reduce the possibility of causing interference to radios, television sets,

Monitor cable
ª Monitor port
Getting Started 5Connecting the mouse and keyboard
You have a choice of several keyboards for your Macintosh. The way you
connect the mouse and keyboard depends on whether the keyboard has a
separate cable or a built-in cable.
Connecting a keyboard with a separate cable
1 Plug the mouse cable into the port on either side of the keyboard.
Most right-handed people prefer to use the mouse with their right hand; most
left-handed people prefer to use their left hand. Plug the mouse into the port
on the side you prefer.
The plug and the port are marked with the × icon (symbol). Align the
symbols before you insert the plug. (The positions of the port and icon on
your keyboard may be different from those pictured here.)
By the way: A port marked with the × icon is called an Apple Desktop Bus
(ADB) port.
2 Plug the keyboard cable (both ends are the same) into the other port on the keyboard.
If you plugged the mouse cable in on the right, for example, plug the keyboard
cable in on the left.
3 Plug the keyboard cable into the port marked with the × icon on the back of the
computer.
Some monitors have a port to which you can connect the keyboard or mouse.
See the information that came with your monitor.
ADB icon
6 Chapter 1Connecting a keyboard with a built-in cable
1 Plug the mouse cable into the recessed port on the back of the keyboard.
The plug and the port are marked with the × icon (symbol). The positions of
the port and icon on your keyboard may be different from those pictured.
By the way: A port marked with the × icon is called an Apple Desktop Bus
(ADB) port.
2 Plug the keyboard cable into the port marked with the × icon on the back of the
computer.
Some monitors have a port to which you can connect the keyboard or mouse.
See the information that came with your monitor.

the correct procedure for shutting down your Macintosh before turning it off.
Getting Started 11Learning the basics
If you are new to the Macintosh, you should begin by looking at the easy-touse program called the Macintosh Tutorial. The tutorial teaches you the basic
skills you’ll need to use your computer in the Macintosh environment. To
start the tutorial, follow these steps:
1 Slide the 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 tip of the arrow (8) to the question mark (h) in the upper-right portion of the
screen.
If you run out of room on your mouse pad or desk while moving the mouse,
pick up the mouse and place it where there’s more room. (The arrow on the
screen moves only when the mouse is in contact with the mouse pad or desk.)
3 With the tip of the arrow on the question mark, press and hold down the mouse button.
A list of choices (called a menu) appears. This is the Guide (h) menu, which
is the place to go when you have a question about how to use your computer
in the Macintosh environment (Mac OS). (The Guide [h] menu is not
available when you’re in the PC environment.)
Mouse button
12 Chapter 14 While holding down the mouse button, move the arrow until the words “Macintosh
Tutorial” are highlighted, then release the mouse button.

Here are a few tips for using Macintosh Guide effectively:
m Macintosh Guide is available only in the Macintosh environment, and
only when you are in the Finder—the desktop area where you can see
the icons of disks, folders, and files. (Other programs may also have
help available in the Guide menu, however.) If you don’t see
Macintosh Guide in the Guide menu, pull down the Application menu
(to the right of the Guide menu) and choose Finder.
m Follow the steps when you’re instructed to; don’t skip ahead or read
ahead. That way the computer can check to make sure you’ve done a
step correctly.
m Unlike most windows, the Macintosh Guide window stays in front of
other windows on the screen so that your instructions are never
covered. If you need to move the Guide window out of the way, drag
it by the title bar at the top of the window.
You can also move the window out of the way by clicking the zoom
box. Click the box once to shrink the window; click it a second time
to expand the window to its original size.
m If you need more information about an instruction or a term, click the
button labeled “Huh?” to get further explanation. (The “Huh?” button
is dimmed when no additional information is available.)
m If you want to return to the main Macintosh Guide window, click the
Topics button in the lower-left corner of the Guide window.
m When you’re finished using Macintosh Guide, click the close box in
the upper-left corner of the window.
Getting Help 25

Topics button “Huh?” button Right arrowIdentifying objects on the screen
Sometimes you’ll see an unfamiliar item on the screen and ask yourself,
“What’s that?” You can get an answer by using a Macintosh feature known as
Balloon Help.
Balloon Help explains the function of icons, menus, commands, and other
items in the Macintosh environment using balloons like those you see in
comic strips.
Follow these steps to use Balloon Help:
1 Pull down the Guide menu (marked with the h icon) and choose Show Balloons.
2 Point to any object on the screen that you want to identify.
A balloon appears next to the object. In the following illustration, for
example, pointing to the Trash displays a balloon that explains how to use the
Trash to throw items away.
Although balloons appear next to items when you point to them, the way
you work does not change; you can still select icons, choose commands,
and so on.
3 When you’re finished using Balloon Help, choose Hide Balloons from the Guide menu.
26 Chapter 2Learning useful shortcuts
You can perform many tasks in the Finder more quickly if you use keyboard
or mouse shortcuts. For example, instead of clicking an icon and choosing
Open from the File menu, you can simply double-click the icon to open it.
Follow these steps to learn keyboard and mouse shortcuts:
1 Pull down the Guide menu (marked with the h icon) and choose Shortcuts.

Connecting Additional Equipment 33Expanding memory
The random-access memory (RAM) in your computer can be expanded.
Installing additional RAM adds more memory chips to your computer and
expands its capabilities. The Technical Information booklet that came with
your computer describes how much additional memory can be installed in
your Macintosh.
You can also add up to 32 megabytes (MB) of RAM for use exclusively in the
PC environment. See Appendix B, “Installing an Expansion Card or Memory
for the PC Environment,” for further information.
Memory for your computer is provided in packages called Single Inline
Memory Modules (SIMMs). The SIMMs must be the correct type for your
computer. It is very important that the SIMMs be correctly installed in your
Macintosh. Incorrect installation can result in errors, unpredictable results,
and damage to your equipment and data.
Installing internal drives
Your Macintosh can hold up to three internal storage devices, including a
floppy disk drive, a CD-ROM (compact disc read-only memory) drive, and a
hard disk drive (several capacities are available). These drives may already be
installed. If you want to add or replace an internal drive, see your Appleauthorized dealer.
WARNING To avoid damage to your computer, Apple recommends that
only an Apple-certified technician install additional RAM. Consult the
service and support information that came with your computer for
instructions on how to contact an Apple-authorized service provider or
Apple for service. If you attempt to install additional RAM yourself, any
damage you may cause to your equipment will not be covered by the
limited warranty on your computer. See an Apple-authorized dealer or
service provider for information about this or any other warranty
question.
34 Chapter 3Your computer has several Macintosh application programs already installed,
as well as some Macintosh programs that must installed before you can use
them. You will need to run an application program’s Installer program before
the application program will work. You’ll find these programs on your
hard disk.
You may want to experiment with AppleScript, one of the programs on your
hard disk. With AppleScript you can automate tasks in the Finder and other
scriptable programs (programs that support AppleScript). Instructions for
using AppleScript are included in the AppleScript folder.
If your computer has enough memory, you can install QuickDraw GX and
PowerTalk. QuickDraw GX gives your computer more powerful printing and
font capabilities. PowerTalk provides an open collaboration environment with
a universal mailbox and other electronic mail services. To install each of these
programs, open the folder of the item you want to install and double-click the
Installer icon.
Another program, Video Monitor, is for use with computers that have audiovisual (AV) capabilities. For information on using Video Monitor, see the
“Video” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
If you want to install DOS application programs, see Chapter 5, “Operating in
the PC Environment,” and refer to your DOS manual.

Installing and Using Application Programs
in the Macintosh Environment
Read this chapter for information on
installing and using application
programs in the Mac OS.Installing Macintosh application programs
You’ll probably want to buy and install additional application programs. See
the manuals you receive with your programs for instructions on installing and
using them.
In most cases, you’ll install a Macintosh application program on your internal
hard disk from floppy disks that contain the program. The following
illustration shows how to insert a floppy disk in your computer’s floppy
disk drive.
To use your programs most effectively, follow these guidelines:
m Put only one copy of each program on your hard disk. Having more than
one copy can cause errors.
m Whenever you copy a program disk to your hard disk, be careful not to
copy a System Folder. Always check to see what you’ve copied, and drag
any extra System Folders to the Trash.
m If a program malfunctions consistently, try installing a fresh copy. If that
doesn’t help, find out from the software manufacturer whether your version
of the program is compatible with the system software you’re using.
For instructions on how to eject floppy disks, see the “Disks” topic of
Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
Insert the floppy disk, metal
end first, into the floppy disk
drive of your computer.
36 Chapter 4Working with several programs at a time
You can open as many application programs and desk accessories as your
computer’s memory allows.
All open programs in the Mac OS are listed in the Application menu at the
right end of the menu bar. The name of the active program (the one you’re
using right now) has a checkmark next to it, and its icon appears in the
menu bar.
You can have programs open in both the Macintosh and PC environments at
the same time, but only your Macintosh programs appear in the Application
menu.
Finding out which programs are open
If you have several programs and windows open, you can find out which
program is active and which other programs are open by pulling down the
Application menu.
Switching programs
You can switch to another open program or desk accessory by choosing its
name from the Application menu.
If a program’s icon is dimmed in the menu, that means its windows are
hidden. Choosing the program from the Application menu displays its
windows.
You can also switch to another program by clicking in a window that belongs
to an open program, or by double-clicking a program icon (or the icon of a
document that was created with the program).

Hiding and showing windows on the desktop
You can hide all windows except those of the active program by choosing
Hide Others from the Application menu.
The other programs remain open even though their windows are hidden.
When you switch to another program, its windows become visible again.
If you want to see all the open windows, choose Show All from the
Application menu.
Backing up your files
Making backup copies of important files is good protection against possible
damage to the originals.
m You can back up files stored on your hard disk by copying them to floppy
disks.
m You can back up an entire floppy disk by copying it to another floppy disk,
or to a hard disk.
m You can use a commercial backup program to copy new and changed files
from a hard disk to another hard disk, to a tape drive, or to a series of
floppy disks.
m If your computer is on a network, you can back up files by copying them to
a shared disk on the network.
To back up files in the Macintosh environment, copy the files to a disk
manually or use a Macintosh backup program. Do not use PC backup
programs in the Mac OS.
38 Chapter 4Your DOS-compatible Macintosh comes with standard versions of DOS and
Windows already installed. Also installed is software you can use to work in
both the Macintosh and PC environments and share data between the two
environments. This software is described in this chapter and the next.
This chapter covers how to
m switch between the Mac OS and the PC environment
m set up and operate in the PC environment
m use floppy disks and disk drives
m cut, copy, and paste data between Mac OS and DOS or Windows
documents
m run network software
m use multimedia, MIDI, and game applications
m use both Macintosh and PC peripheral devices in the PC environment

checkbox next to Fade Screens.
Setting up the PC environment
In order to take advantage of certain utilities, you may need to modify your
DOS CONFIG.SYS file. For information about how to edit DOS files, see
your DOS manual. For information about the kinds of changes you might
need to make, read the information below.
Note: Your DOS system software also includes alternate versions of the
CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files that allow you to select from a
variety of memory management options each time you start DOS. For
information on how to install these alternate files, see “Replacing the
CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT Files” in the section “Reinstalling
the DOS-Compatibility Software” in Chapter 8.
42 Chapter 5Memory management utilities
If you use a memory management utility such as EMM386 or QEMM, you
need to configure it to be compatible with your DOS-compatibility hardware
and software.
IMPORTANT Apple does not recommend using automated memory
configuration utilities with your DOS-compatible Macintosh because they can
require more memory than management utilities you configure manually.
Additionally, some memory configuration utilities may not be able to
determine the exact nature of the DOS-compatibility hardware, and therefore
may not be compatible.
If you want to use EMM386 (included as part of DOS) and don’t require
expanded memory, set CONFIG.SYS to the following:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS RAM=D000-EFFF
If you require expanded memory, set CONFIG.SYS to the following:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM=D000-EFFF FRAME=D000
If you want to use QEMM, use the frame option (ST:F):
DEVICE=C:\QEMM\QEMM386.SYS RAM ST:F ARAM=B080-B7FF
ARAM=C900-DFFF R:1
If you want to use the Stealth mapping option (ST:M), set CONFIG.SYS to
DEVICE=C:\QEMM\QEMM386.SYS RAM ST:M X=C800-CFFF X=FC00-
FCFF X=FE00-FFFF ARAM=B080-B7FF ARAM=C900-DFFF R:2
Configure other memory management utilities such that D000 through EFFF
is the only area in the BIOS that can be mapped to upper memory.
To prevent the ROM BIOS from becoming corrupted when the
DOS-compatibility card is configured for 2 MB of memory, set the
switch in the CONFIG.SYS file to turn memory testing off.
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /TESTMEM:OFF
For more information on making the best use of memory, read the sections on
memory management in your DOS manual, or refer to the documentation for
your memory manager if you are using something other than EMM386.
Operating in the PC Environment 43Working in the PC environment
When you switch to DOS or Windows, you’re operating in a real PC world.
The floppy disk drive, mouse, and keyboard all act as they would with a
standard PC. There are, however, some mapping issues you need to be
aware of.
Floppy disk drives and floppy disks
m The Macintosh floppy disk drive is drive A. To eject a disk from this disk
drive while you’re in the PC environment, press x-E.
m If you insert a Mac OS-format floppy disk while you’re in the PC
environment, it is ejected.
You can access an unlocked floppy disk only in the environment that was in
the foreground when the floppy disk was inserted.
When you insert a locked PC disk, both environments have access to it.
Blank disks are formatted as DOS disks in the PC environment. In the
Mac OS, you can format disks for DOS or the Mac OS (among other choices).
Some blank disks are preformatted by the manufacturer. If you insert a new,
blank disk in the PC environment and it is ejected, it may have been
preformatted as a Macintosh disk. To use the disk in the PC environment, you
must first return to the Mac OS and reformat (reinitialize) the disk as a
DOS disk.
The Mac OS Disk Copy application program cannot read a DOS-formatted
floppy disk unless the disk is unlocked.
Floppy disks formatted in the PC environment in DOS 720K format are not
readable by some DOS computers. Instead, format the disk in the Macintosh
environment, choosing “DOS 720K” as the format. See “How do I prepare a
disk for use?” in the “Disks” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the
Guide (h) menu.
Restarting the PC from a floppy disk
To restart (reboot) the PC environment from a floppy disk, insert the disk into
the floppy drive. Press x-Control-Alt-[keypad] period. When the floppy disk
is ejected, immediately reinsert it into the disk drive.
44 Chapter 5CD-ROM discs and drives
You can use DOS and Windows CD-ROM discs in Apple CD-ROM drives.
To eject a CD-ROM disc in the PC environment, press x-Y. If the CD-ROM
disc cannot be ejected (because a file is in use or the CD-ROM disc is being
shared), the Macintosh beeps.
You can listen to audio CDs in either the PC environment or Mac OS, but you
cannot control them from both environments at the same time. For example, if
you began listening to an audio CD while working in the PC environment
and then switched to the Mac OS, you would have to return to the PC
environment in order to adjust the CD’s volume.
Playing an audio CD in Windows while running low-level media tools, such
as PC Tools or Microsoft Anti-Virus, may cause your system to crash. It is
best to reduce computer activity to a minimum while using such tools.
You cannot use more than one CD-ROM drive at a time in the PC
environment.
The PC sets up a drive letter (E) for a CD-ROM drive even if no drive is
connected. If no CD-ROM drive is connected to your system, you can use this
drive letter and free some memory by editing the AUTOEXEC.BAT and
CONFIG.SYS files.
In the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, add REM to the beginning of the line
LH C:\DOS\MSCDEX /D:CDDRVR /L:E
In the CONFIG.SYS file, add REM to the beginning of the line
DEVICE=C:\Apple\CDROM.SYS /D:CDDRVR
Prefacing these commands with REM makes DOS ignore them.
Operating in the PC Environment 45Pointing device
The standard Macintosh pointing device has one button; most PC devices
have two. The button on the Macintosh pointing device behaves like the left
button on a PC device.
m To simulate the right button, press the = key on the keypad.
m To press the left and right buttons at the same time, press the mouse button
and the = key simultaneously.
If you have Windows installed, you can use its Mouse control panel to switch
the button assignment.
Note: DOS does not come with a mouse driver. A mouse driver for Windows
is installed on your system along with Windows, however.
Keyboard
The DOS-compatible Macintosh supports all Apple keyboards.
The Option key on an Apple keyboard can be used as the Alt key in the PC
environment.
The Apple Extended Keyboard and the Apple Design Keyboard can be used
normally. With the Apple Keyboard II, use the following equivalents for keys
on a PC keyboard. These equivalents also apply to the Apple Adjustable
Keyboard if the function key keyboard isn’t plugged in.
46 Chapter 5PC key Equivalent on Macintosh keyboard
F1 through F9 x-1 through 9
F10 x-0
F11 x-(minus)
F12 x-(equals)
F13 x-[
F14 x-]
F15 x-\
Home x-[keypad] 7
PageUp x-[keypad] 9
End x-[keypad] 1
PageDown x-[keypad] 3
Insert x-[keypad] 0
Del x-[keypad] (period)
Using the Apple Adjustable keyboard: If you are using the Apple Adjustable
keyboard, you cannot use key combinations made up of keys from the main
keyboard and function keys (for example, Shift-F1). This means you cannot
restart the PC using the x-Control-Alt-[keypad] period key combination.
Click Restart PC in the PC Setup control panel instead.
MacShare
MacShare is a PC application program that lets the PC view Mac OS folders
and volumes as drive letters. You can have as many shared drives as there are
drive letters.
m To specify the number of drive letters, modify your CONFIG.SYS file to include a
LASTDRIVE statement.
LASTDRIVE=x
where x is a letter between E and Z. (The PC reserves drives A through D
for its floppy and hard disk drives.)
Operating in the PC Environment 47For example, if you use M as your LASTDRIVE value, you could have up to
nine extra drives using drives labeled E through M. A CD-ROM drive, if
installed, uses E.
Each additional drive letter uses 100 bytes of PC memory.
Clipboard
You can exchange clipboard information between the PC environment and the
Mac OS. The type of information you can exchange depends on whether
you’re running DOS or Windows.
Windows Clipboard
You can exchange text, PICT, RTF, and bitmap files between the Mac OS and
Windows using the Copy and Paste commands from the Edit menu. You can
also purchase additional third-party software to provide translations for other
data types.
DOS “Clipboard”
If you’re running DOS, you can capture text or a PICT file from a region of
the screen that you define using the DOSCLIP TSR (Terminate-and-StayResident program). The memory-resident program is loaded automatically
each time you switch to DOS. You activate DOSCLIP by pressing a keyboard
combination, or keystroke, (preset to Shift-Control-C) and then selecting a
region to copy.
Keystroke starts process: On the PC side, enter the keystroke first; then,
holding down the mouse button, select a region to copy. (This process works
only if a DOS mouse driver is installed.) Releasing the mouse button sends
the selection to the Clipboard. In the Mac OS, you select the area first and
then issue the keystroke.
48 Chapter 5To capture text or a PICT file from a region on the screen if you don’t have a
DOS mouse driver installed, follow these instructions:
1 Activate DOSCLIP.
The DOSCLIP activation keystroke is preset to Shift-Control-C.
A cursor appears in the center of the screen.
2 Use the keyboard arrow keys to move the cursor to the upper-left corner of the region
you want to copy.
3 Holding down the Shift key, use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the lower-right
corner of the region.
4 Release the Shift key.
The selected area is copied to the Clipboard.
m You can paste text into DOS from the Mac OS. The preset keystroke is
Shift-Control-V.
Changing the predefined keystrokes in DOS
You change the preset keystrokes for copying and pasting by editing the
AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
m To change the keystroke for the Copy command, use the form
C:\APPLE\DOSCLIP/Cnm…
m To change the keystroke for the Paste command, use the form
C:\APPLE\DOSCLIP/Pnm…
In both cases, n is a number representing a key scan code from the following
table, and m… is one or more of the characters A, C, and S (for Alt, Control,
and Left- or Right-shift).
For example, the preset code for Copy is /C46CA—/C[opy using the key] 46
[which is C, plus the] C[ontrol key plus the] A[lt key]. To change the
keystroke to F3, you’d type the following:
C:\APPLE\DOSCLIP/C61
Note: To get on-screen help about other DOSCLIP options, type
DOSCLIP /? at the DOS prompt.

Operating in the PC Environment 51Tips for using the Clipboard
When the PC environment is running, you have three separate clipboards to
work with—the Mac OS Clipboard, the Windows Clipboard, and DOSCLIP.
Translation between the clipboards takes place each time you switch between
the PC and Macintosh environments. When using these clipboards there are a
few things to keep in mind.
m If you copy an item to the Macintosh Clipboard, switch to Windows, and
then copy an item to the Windows Clipboard, the original Macintosh
Clipboard contents will be deleted. To prevent this, remove the PC
Clipboard extension from the Extensions folder (inside the System Folder
in the Mac OS).
m In order to translate the contents of the Macintosh Clipboard to the
Windows Clipboard, Windows must be already running when you switch
environments. If you switch to DOS and then launch Windows, the
Macintosh Clipboard will be translated into DOSCLIP, and the Windows
Clipboard will be blank.
m In order to translate the contents of the Macintosh Clipboard to DOSCLIP,
Windows must not be running when you switch environments. If Windows
is running when you switch to the PC, the Macintosh Clipboard will be
translated into the Windows Clipboard, and DOSCLIP will be blank.
m DOSCLIP contents cannot be pasted into Windows, or vice versa.
m Graphics can be copied from a DOS application program to DOSCLIP, but
graphics cannot be pasted into a DOS program from DOSCLIP.
m After copying a graphic from DOS using DOSCLIP, you may experience
difficulty in pasting the graphic into a Macintosh application program.
If this happens, try increasing the Macintosh program’s memory.
(See the question “How do I change a program’s memory size?“ in the
“Working with Programs” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the
Guide [h] menu.)
m Sounds cannot be copied between the Macintosh and the PC.
m Plain text is automatically translated from one environment to another, but
in order to retain font and style information, additional Macintosh Easy
Open translators must be used (for example, MacLink Plus from DataViz).
52 Chapter 5m When using DOSCLIP from within certain application programs, it may
not be possible to select the text using the mouse. In these cases, either use
the keyboard to select your text, or check that the standard DOS mouse
driver is not loaded.
m When the PC environment is active, all Macintosh programs are put in the
background to allow the PC Clipboard to run in the foreground. If you do
not want your Macintosh programs to run in the background while you are
in the PC environment, you must disable the Clipboard translation by
removing the PC Clipboard Extension from the Extensions folder (inside
the System Folder in the Mac OS).
Running network software
The DOS-Compatibility Software on your computer supports any networking
protocols, operating systems, or application programs that are compatible with
Novell’s Open Data-Link Interface specification (ODI).
m To set up the software, install your networking client software in the PC environment.
Networking client software such as Netware is not included with the DOScompatible Macintosh.
Compatible and incompatible protocols
You can run NetWare in the PC environment at the same time that you’re
running AppleTalk in the Mac OS.
To use IPX or TCP networking protocols, you must have an Ethernet card
installed in your computer’s communication slot. (The Ethernet card is not a
standard feature.)
You can use the IPX and TCP protocols at the same time in either the PC
environment or the Mac OS, or you can use one protocol in the PC
environment and the other protocol in the Mac OS. However, you cannot
use the same protocol in both environments at the same time.
If you want to use the IPX protocol in the PC environment and you have
installed MacIPX in the Mac OS, remove MacIPX from the Control Panels
folder or select AppleTalk as your network interface in the MacIPX
control panel.
Operating in the PC Environment 53If you want to use the TCP protocol in the PC environment, remove MacTCP
from the Control Panels folder or select an interface other than Ethernet in
the MacTCP control panel.
Network performance is improved by adding memory to the DOScompatibility card installed in your computer, as described in Appendix B.
For more information, see Appendix E, “Installing Network Management
Software.”
Using multimedia, MIDI, and game application programs
These types of programs, whether they are run in the PC or Macintosh
environment, see a marked performance improvement when there is a
memory SIMM on the DOS-compatibility card for the exclusive use of
the PC environment. See the Technical Specifications booklet to determine
whether your computer has a SIMM installed on the DOS-compatibility card.
You can also install a SIMM with greater memory capacity, as described
in Appendix B, “Installing an Expansion Card or Memory for the PC
Environment.” QuickTime application performance is especially improved
with a SIMM.
Some DOS-based MPEG players require a VGA monitor to output video. All
VGA modes can be displayed on Macintosh monitors supported by the DOScompatible Macintosh. If the monitor specified to display the PC is a VGA
monitor, select VGA in the Display box in the PC Setup control panel. You
cannot select VGA for a shared monitor configuration from the PC Setup
control panel if your monitor is not capable of displaying VGA. Multiscan
monitors can display VGA.
54 Chapter 5Using Macintosh peripherals in the PC environment
You use the serial ports of your Macintosh just like the serial ports of any
PC-compatible computer.
The maximum data transfer rate supported by the DOS-compatible hardware
when a COM port is mapped to a Macintosh serial port is 19,200 bits per
second (bps). If you’re capturing serial output to a Mac OS text file, there is
no limit.
Using printers
For DOS or Windows printing, use the LPT1.DOS or LPT1 serial port. In
general, you must use printers that are Macintosh-compatible and use their
corresponding printer extension for the Macintosh. However, in a PC Novell
NetWare environment you can print to a PC-compatible printer attached to a
Novell network. See Appendix E, “Installing Network Management
Software.”
DOS uses the printer selected in the Macintosh Chooser as the default LPT1
device. If you have a serial printer directly connected to a COM port,
however, DOS uses that printer instead.
The DOS-compatible software can process output for Epson and PostScript
printers, and for all printers that use Hewlett-Packard’s page control
language (PCL).
QuickDraw printers such as the StyleWriter or ImageWriter work only with
Epson emulation. (If a printer is not a PostScript or PCL printer, it’s
considered to be a QuickDraw printer.) For non-PostScript PCL printers, use
the appropriate PCL driver in the PC environment. For non-PostScript,
non-PCL printers, configure your DOS application program to use the
Epson LQ-2500 driver. If this driver isn’t available, try another Epson LQ
or LX series driver. Be sure to turn on the PCL option if it’s available for
your printer.
Operating in the PC Environment 55The Epson emulator works by first translating the DOS text to a similar
Macintosh font, then interpreting that text into a series of QuickDraw
commands. Some characters in the original DOS character set may not have
exact translations to a Macintosh font. The use of a PostScript font is
recommended in these cases, because the PostScript standard requires no
translation.
About color: Color printing is not supported under Epson emulation. When
printing from the PC to a color or grayscale QuickDraw printer, be sure to
select the Black & White option in the Print dialog box.
If you have a PCL printer, printing is limited to text-only or graphics-only
when printing over an AppleTalk network. To print text only, select your
printer’s driver in the Windows Control Panel. To print graphics only, choose
the LaserJet III driver from the Windows Control Panel. If you need to print
mixed graphics and text, many Windows programs bit-map their text so that
it becomes a graphic. Additionally, PCL printing of text and graphics together
is possible when printing over a Novell network, where a PC print server is
connected to the PCL printer and handles the print job. Select your printer’s
own driver in the Windows Control Panel.
For PostScript printers, use the Apple LaserWriter II NT driver (or another
PostScript driver if the Apple LaserWriter II NT driver is not available) or the
Windows PostScript driver.
IMPORTANT Be sure to make settings in the Mac OS PC Print Spooler that
match the drivers you use in the PC environment, or your printer will not
work correctly. See “Setting Preferences in the PC Print Spooler” for details.
Turning off Background Printing in the Macintosh Chooser may increase the
performance of some printers.
Configuring a printer for Windows: For better performance when you
configure a printer for Windows, select LPT1.DOS instead of LPT as
the port.
56 Chapter 5IMPORTANT If you try to print a file using a PostScript printer driver for a
non-PostScript printer, and the preferences are set to Epson, your file will not
be printed. Instead, the file will be moved to a folder called “Spooler
Rejected” in the Mac OS. To print the file, choose the proper printer driver in
the PC environment and try again.
Note: Data sent to the LPT1 port is automatically routed to the printer
selected in the Chooser in the Mac OS. There is no actual parallel port on
the DOS-compatible Macintosh.
AppleShare Print Server
The AppleShare Print Server should not be installed in a DOS-compatible
Macintosh because the server’s software conflicts with the PC Print Spooler.
You can, however, connect your DOS-compatible Macintosh to a network that
uses an AppleShare Print Server.
Setting preferences in the PC Print Spooler
You can set preferences in the PC Print Spooler to control a variety of
print functions.
To choose your Print Spooler settings, follow these steps:
1 In the Macintosh environment, open the Extensions folder inside the System Folder.
2 Find the PC Print Spooler icon and open it.
Operating in the PC Environment 573 Choose Preferences from the File menu.
A dialog box appears.
4 Choose your settings as appropriate.
The selection you make for “Interpret non-PostScript as” must match the
type of printer you have specified in the PC environment. If the settings are
mismatched, your printer may produce gibberish. In addition, the PCL option
works only if the printer is set up to accept PCL commands.
The selection you make for “When emulating an Epson printer” determines
how much of a page is available for printing. If you use the option that allows
gaps between pages, configure your application programs to print to a 60-line
page, rather than a 66-line page, or your margins will be off and your pages
will not print correctly.
5 Click OK.
66 lines maximum for Epson: Page sizes greater than 66 lines (standard letter
size paper) are not supported by the Epson driver. Legal and other larger sizes
will be cut off after either 60 or 66 lines, depending on the setting you’ve
chosen. If you find that your printing is clipped at either the top or bottom of
the page, click the No Gaps option.
58 Chapter 5Using PC peripherals
Because of the RS-422 implementation of the Macintosh, the following
RS-232 signals are not available to the PC:
m Carrier Detect (CD)
m Data Set Ready (DSR)
m Request to Send (RTS)
m Ring Indicator (RI)
Applications or serial devices requiring these signals won’t work.
While the DOS-compatible Macintosh does not support Carrier Detect (CD),
you can set most communications application programs to respond to the
CARRIER string sent back by most modems.
For more information about accessing serial ports from DOS, see the
documentation that came with your DOS software.
IMPORTANT The following chart lists the various signals present on the
Macintosh Mini DIN-8 connector, and on what pins these signals are present
on PC-style DB-9 and DB-25 connectors. This information may be of use if
you are planning to have a custom cable built. Refer to the manual for the
serial device that you plan to attach to the Macintosh for the recommended
serial connection, and use the chart below to find out what the proper
Macintosh wiring should be.

Operating in the PC Environment 59This chapter covers how to configure the PC environment and change PC
options using the PC Setup control panel.
Your Macintosh comes with the PC environment already configured and
ready to use. Read this chapter only if you want to change the way the PC
environment is set up, or if you have reinstalled the DOS-compatibility
software and need to reconfigure it.
You can control how your Macintosh and your DOS-compatible hardware and
software work together with the PC Setup control panel. You use the control
panel to accomplish the following tasks:
m choose folders or volumes to be shared between the Mac OS and the PC
environment
m turn the PC card on and off
m configure PC serial ports
m set display options
m set the shared memory size
m turn PC sounds on and off and use Sound Blaster sound capabilities
m configure PC drives
You also use the control panel to switch environments immediately and to
start, restart, or shut down the PC.

6 Configuring the PC Environment
Use the instructions in this chapter
if you need to change settings for
the PC environment.Choosing settings
To choose settings, follow these steps:
1 Choose Control Panels from the Apple (K) menu.
2 Double-click the PC Setup control panel to open it.
3 When you have specified the settings you want, close the control panel.
All settings except RAM take effect as soon as you make them. If you
change the RAM setting, you must restart the Macintosh before the change
takes effect.
Online help available: To get brief on-screen explanations of items in the
control panel, choose Show Balloons from the Guide (h) menu. To get
detailed step-by-step help, see the “DOS Compatibility Software” topic of
Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
62 Chapter 6Configuring the PC serial ports
Your DOS-compatible Macintosh supports two serial ports, COM1 and
COM2. You can map these ports to an unused Macintosh printer port or
modem port, to a text file for later processing, or to a setting of None.
m To assign a Macintosh serial port to a COM port, make a selection in the COM port’s
pop-up menu.
When you map a port to a text file, a dialog box appears that you use to
specify a name and location for the file. Macintosh serial ports already in use
appear dimmed in the menu. (The printer port may be in use by AppleTalk,
which may be used for a network or LaserWriter connection; the modem port
may be in use by communications or fax software.) Changes to these
selections take place immediately.
Assigned ports may not be available to the Mac OS: Mac OS programs may no
longer be able to access ports that you’ve assigned to DOS. Allocate these
ports only when they’re needed, and deallocate them when they’re no longer
required by your DOS programs. (You won’t have to restart the computer to
have the changes take effect.)
The maximum baud rate supported by the DOS-compatible Macintosh when
a COM port is mapped to a Macintosh serial port is 19,200. However, when
the MODE command is issued in DOS and the serial port is set at 19,200
baud, the incorrect message “Function not supported on this computer” is
displayed. This occurs because DOS is looking for specific hardware (a PC
UART) that is not emulated by the DOS-compatible Macintosh. The
Macintosh actually does support 19,200 baud, and can be set by a number of
communication application programs.
Configuring the PC Environment 63Setting the monitor
The monitor connected to your Macintosh DOS-compatible system displays
the environment (Mac OS or PC) you’re working in. Even though you see
only one environment at a time, the other environment can still be active in
the background.
To set the monitor for the PC environment:
m Choose a monitor type in the Display pop-up menu.
See the Technical Information booklet that came with your computer for a list
of supported Macintosh monitors and for VGA and SVGA monitor
specifications.
If the DOS-compatibility software recognizes the monitor connected to your
computer as a non-multiscan display, it makes the appropriate selection for
you; other menu options are dimmed.
16" monitor requires driver: If you have a 16" monitor, the PC doesn’t use the
entire screen unless you install a display driver for the program that you’re
using. (DOS can’t use a video driver, so there will always be a large black
border around the DOS screen.) See “Reinstalling Video Drivers” in the
section “Reinstalling the DOS-Compatibility Software” in Chapter 8 for
instructions.
Setting the time and date
The PC environment uses the same date and time settings as the Mac OS. If
you change the time and date on the PC, it will not affect the time and date
on the Mac OS.
When you restart the PC, it synchronizes its time and date with the settings
you’ve chosen in the Mac OS. (The PC may lag up to 10 seconds behind the
Mac OS.)
64 Chapter 6Setting shared memory
You can install a 72-pin SIMM (memory module) on the DOS-compatible
card in your computer to give the card up to 32 MB of RAM for its exclusive
use. When no SIMM is installed, the card uses a portion of the RAM
installed in your Macintosh.
If your computer came with a SIMM already installed on the
DOS-compatible card, you cannot share memory between the Mac OS
and the PC environment. The PC uses the memory installed on the
DOS-compatible card exclusively. The shared memory options in the
PC Setup control panel will be dimmed (unavailable). See the Technical
Specifications booklet to determine whether your computer contains a
SIMM installed on the DOS-compatible card.
m Choose the amount of memory you want for your PC in the RAM pop-up menu.
In the RAM pop-up menu, a small square (M) shows the RAM that the PC is
currently using and a bullet (•) indicates how much RAM you assigned.
When the Macintosh starts up, it claims RAM for its own use before it sets
aside RAM for the PC. If the PC has less RAM than you installed, turn off
the Mac OS RAM disk (if you’re using one) in the Memory control panel.
You may also need to lower the disk cache size in the Memory control panel
to 128K or less.
Memory changes take place when you restart the Macintosh.
IMPORTANT Memory that you set aside for the PC environment is not
available to the Mac OS. To make this memory available, you must turn off
the PC (click the Off button at the top of the PC Setup control panel) and
restart the Macintosh.
Configuring the PC Environment 65Changing the amount of conventional memory
Many DOS and Windows programs require conventional memory to run.
At the same time, many device drivers and TSRs may be loaded into
conventional memory. If you find that you do not have enough conventional
memory to run some of your DOS or Windows programs, take the
following steps.
To increase Upper Memory Block (UMB) space to 122K instead of 64K, add
the following line to your CONFIG.SYS file:
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE RAM=D000-EFFF FRAME=D000
To load DOS into the UMB (high memory) also add the following to your
CONFIG.SYS file:
DOS=HIGH, UMB
Insert the LOADHIGH (LH) command before all TSRs and device drivers in
the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. For example:
LH C:\DOS\SMARTDRV.EXE /X
This will load these into UMB (high memory). If you run out of UMB space,
you may see an error message like this during the boot process:
Run time error R6009
-not enough space for environment.
In this case, remove LH from TSRs and device drivers one or two at a time,
and try again until the error message does not appear.
If a DOSCLIP copy command is executed from within Harvard Graphics 3.0,
then the PC crashes when Harvard Graphics is quit. To prevent this, use the
steps outlined above, making sure that SMARTDRV is one of the drivers
preceded with LH.
IMPORTANT To prevent the System BIOS from becoming corrupted when the
PC is configured for 2 MB of memory, set the switch in the CONFIG.SYS file
to turn memory testing off:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /TESTMEM:OFF
66 Chapter 6Choosing shared folders or volumes
You can set up a Mac OS folder, Macintosh hard disk, shared disk, or
CD-ROM disc on a network to act as a PC drive.
Sharing a folder on your Macintosh hard disk is a convenient way to
transfer files between the Mac OS and the PC environment, especially if
you are dealing with many files, or large files.
You can share entire disks, or volumes. This is especially useful for network
volumes, CD-ROM drives, or other volumes that otherwise would not be
readily available to the PC environment. DOS treats all shared volumes as
network volumes. Some DOS commands, such as FORMAT, CHKDSK,
UNDELETE, and SUBST will not work on shared volumes.
m Choose an available drive letter from the Sharing pop-up menu in the PC Setup
control panel.
A dialog box appears, letting you select a folder or disk (volume) for
the drive.
Shared folders and volumes revert to their usual unshared status when you
shut down your Macintosh. To have a folder or volume automatically assigned
to a drive letter at startup, click the checkbox next to Attach at Startup. The
name of an automatically attached folder or volume appears underlined in the
Sharing pop-up menu. To turn off an assignment, choose the underlined item
in the menu.
IMPORTANT For the sharing functions to work properly, DOS must be running,
MacShare should be loaded as part of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, and a
LASTDRIVE=x statement should appear in the CONFIG.SYS file, where
x is the highest drive letter available for sharing. AUTOEXEC.BAT and
CONFIG.SYS have x preset to M. See “MacShare” in the section “Working in
the PC Environment” in Chapter 5 for more information.
See the “Using DOS Files & Disks” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the
Guide (h) menu, for more information on transferring files between the PC
environment and the Mac OS using floppy disks and other media.
IMPORTANT Use caution when handling the drive file. Erasing one of these is
equivalent to reformatting the hard drive it is emulating. The drive file is
locked when it is installed on your computer. If you must unlock it, be very
careful not to erase it.
Configuring the PC Environment 67Using shared folders
Because two operating systems have access to each shared folder, there may
be a noticeable slowdown in performance when using these folders for highspeed PC applications such as multimedia programs, or during large file
transfers between them. For optimum performance, place PC application
programs and their files in the C or D drive rather than in a shared folder.
The performance of Macintosh programs is unaffected by placing them in
shared folders.
Since the PC doesn’t understand the concept of resource forks the same way
the Macintosh does, information in a Macintosh file’s “resource fork” is lost
when it is copied by the PC. For example, if a Macintosh file is copied
between two shared folders using the COPY command in DOS, that file’s
original icon will be lost, and the file itself may be unusable in the Mac OS.
Many document files do not have resource forks and can be copied between
shared folders with no problems. The applications that created the files
contain the resource information for these files. However, QuickTime files
cannot be successfully copied between shared folders.
In some Microsoft application programs, there is a misrepresentation of the
shared drive icons. When you open a file from a shared folder in Microsoft
Excel or Microsoft Word, the shared drive icon may appear as a floppy disk
or CD. This does not affect the file’s content, and the file is still usable.
Do not attempt to use shared folders from a DOS shell run from Windows.
Strange text characters in a document
When using shared folders to exchange documents between the Mac OS and
the PC, in some cases a Macintosh application program may not be able to
interpret the file format of a PC document. When this happens, the
document’s formatting is displayed incorrectly and you may see strange
characters in the document.
m Try using a different application program.
m Translate the document into a different file format using one of the file
format translation utilities available for the Macintosh (such as MacLink
Plus Easy Open Translators from DataViz).
m Transfer the text using DOSCLIP.
m Use the Export feature found in many programs.
m Use a PC-Macintosh translation utility.
68 Chapter 6Turning on PC sounds
To have Sound Blaster and other PC sounds played through the Macintosh
speaker or through headphones, you need to make settings in both the PC
Setup control panel and in the Sound control panel.
Choosing a setting in the Sound pop-up menu
The Sound pop-up menu in the PC Setup control panel gives you three
choices:
m To hear PC sounds in both the PC environment and the Mac OS, choose
Enabled.
m To hear PC sounds only when you’re in the PC environment, choose
Auto Enabled.
m To shut off PC sounds entirely, choose Disabled.
Sound control panel takes precedence: The setting in the PC Setup control
panel’s Sound pop-up menu has no effect on sounds generated in the Mac OS.
If the volume is set to 0 in the Sound control panel, however, you won’t hear
any PC sounds no matter what the setting is in the PC Setup control panel’s
Sound menu.
For sounds generated by the Sound Blaster card and for sounds from the PC,
the Sound control panel must be set with the Internal CD playthrough option
turned on. For instructions, see the “Sound” topic of Macintosh Guide,
available in the Guide (h) menu.
The PC Sound control in the PC Setup control panel does not affect sounds
produced by the Sound Blaster card. Only PC-generated sounds such as the
system beep are affected by this control. To turn off both PC and Sound
Blaster-generated sounds, use the master volume control of the Mixer Control
application from the Audio program group, or turn off the Internal CD
playthrough in the Sound control panel in the Mac OS. (For instructions, see
the “Sound” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.)
The Sound Blaster hardware installed in your DOS-compatible Macintosh is
not able to record sounds.
The DOS-compatible Macintosh does not fully support Sound Blaster 8-bit,
Sound Blaster 2.0, or Sound Blaster Pro drivers. If problems occur, use the
Sound Blaster 16 driver that comes with your computer.
Configuring the PC Environment 69Configuring drives C and D
You use the C: and D: pop-up menus to create or select PC drives. Drive C is
required; drive D is optional. You can use a PC-formatted SCSI hard drive
attached to your Macintosh, or you can create a drive container—a virtual PC
drive—on any Macintosh hard drive. You can even use a drive container
created by SoftPC or SoftWindows.
To use a PC-formatted SCSI drive as a startup (boot) drive, format the drive to
be bootable by using the FORMAT C: /S command.
m To create a drive container for drive C or D, choose New Drive File from the
C: or D: pop-up menu.
Set a location for the drive container, and give it a name and a size. Then
click Initialize Drive File.
When using a PC-formatted SCSI device as the PC’s C or D drive, ensure that
the driver for that device is not loaded by PC Exchange. This would cause PC
Exchange to mount the drive instead of the PC environment. Open the PC
Exchange control panel and click the Options button. Make sure the SCSI
driver for the device you want to use is not checked. Then click OK. This
ensures that the PC will be able to load the C drive.
Single versus multiple partitions: When you initialize a container this way, it
contains a single partition. To initialize a container with multiple partitions,
prepare it in DOS using the FDISK command instead of initializing it
through the PC Setup control panel. Then format it using the FORMAT
command. Use the /S parameter in the FORMAT command to make the
container bootable (for example, type FORMAT C: /S at the DOS prompt).
See the DOS manual for further instructions on using these commands.
m To change the drive container for drive C or D, choose Other Drive File from
the C: or D: pop-up menu, then locate the new drive container in the dialog box
that appears.
The change takes effect the next time you restart the PC. To have the change
take place immediately, click the Restart button at the bottom of the control
panel.
70 Chapter 6m To use a PC drive or partition, choose Drive Partition from the C: or D: pop-up menu.
A dialog box appears with a list of available partitions.
If you use a PC drive or partition and you have a utility that mounts these
devices on the Macintosh, unmount the drive or partition before starting the
PC by dragging its icon to the Trash.
If you intend to mount your PC drive file, partition, or disk on the Macintosh
using Macintosh PC Exchange, do not use a PC compression program. Drives
that are compressed cannot be mounted.
Managing PC files from the Mac OS
You can gain access to files in a drive container even if you’re in the Mac OS.
Follow these steps:
1 Double-click the drive container in the Finder.
The drive container appears as a disk icon on the Mac OS desktop.
2 Double-click the container’s disk icon.
The icon opens and you have access to the files inside it.
You can now manipulate these files as you would any Mac OS files.
Drive container may be read-only: If the PC is running, you won’t be able to
add anything to the drive container from the Mac OS. To do so, shut down the
PC from the PC Setup control panel and then do steps 1 and 2 above.
WARNING If you don’t unmount the drive or partition, you may lose data
because both the Macintosh and the PC may write to the device at the
same time.
Configuring the PC Environment 71Changing the size of the drive container
You may find, after installing software in a drive container, that the container
is too small or too large for your needs. You cannot change the size of an
existing drive container, but you can create a new one in the appropriate size
and move the software to it. You can also create an additional drive container
to supplement the existing one.
Two active containers maximum: For the following procedure to work,
drive D must be available for assignment to a new drive container. If both
drives C and D have been assigned, you must first set drive D to None and
drive C to the container you need to replace. (The contents of the container
mapped to drive D are unaffected.)
Calculating the proper size
To determine the proper size for the new container, follow these steps:
1 Make sure you’re in the Mac OS, then open the PC Setup control panel.
You see a small apple at the upper-left corner of the screen when you’re in the
Mac OS.
2 Check the name of the container associated with drive C.
The name of the container appears above the C: pop-up menu.
3 Locate the container in the Finder.
72 Chapter 64 Open the container’s Get Info window and note the container’s size.
To open the container’s Get Info window, select the container’s icon and
choose Get Info from the File menu.
5 Close the Get Info window by clicking its close box.
6 Switch to the PC environment.
7 At the DOS C: prompt, type DIR.
Note how much space is available.
8 Subtract the amount of available space on the drive from the container size.
The number you get is the current size you need for storage.
9 Add 10 percent to the result of the calculation in step 8.
It’s a good idea to have extra space available, because some applications may
need to write temporary work files to the drive, or you may need to add
software to the drive at a later time. The 10 percent figure, however, is
arbitrary; use a number that suits your needs.
If the current container is too large, the result of this calculation is the size
that the new container should be. Skip to step 12.
10 Determine the amount of storage needed by the additional software you want to install.
To do so, add together the individual storage space required for each program
you want to install. This information is probably available in the
documentation that came with your software.
11 Add the sums from steps 9 and 10.
The resulting sum is the size that the new container should be.
12 Press x-Return to switch back to the Mac OS.
Configuring the PC Environment 73Creating the new container
Now that you know what size the container should be, you’re ready to
create it.
1 Follow the instructions under “Configuring Drives C and D” earlier in this chapter to
create a new container for drive D.
You may need to remove some files from your hard disk to free enough space
for the new container.
2 Click Restart PC at the bottom of the PC Setup control panel.
3 Click Switch to PC.
You now have two drives available—drive C, your original container, and
drive D, the container you just created.
Moving the files
You can transfer your files from the old container to the new one in either the
Mac OS or the PC environment.
m To move files in the Mac OS, drag all the files from the existing drive container to
the new one.
To move the files in the PC environment, follow these steps:
1 At the DOS prompt, type FORMAT D: /S and press Return.
This command makes the new drive container bootable.
Answer Y when DOS asks if you’re sure.
2 When the DOS prompt returns, type the following command:
XCOPY C:\*.* D:\*.* /E /V
This command copies all the files and directories from your drive C container
to your drive D container.
3 Press x-Return to switch back to the Mac OS when copying is complete.
74 Chapter 64 In the PC Setup control panel, choose None from the D: pop-up menu.
Doing so deallocates drive D.
5 Choose Other Drive File from the C: pop-up menu and select the container you just
created.
Your new container is now associated with drive C.
6 Click Restart PC at the bottom of the PC Setup control panel.
7 Click Switch to PC.
8 At the DOS prompt, type DIR.
You should see a list of all the files you copied.
You may want to run some of your programs to verify that everything has
been copied correctly.
m To throw away the original drive container, first switch to the Mac OS. Then drag the
original container to the Trash and choose Empty Trash from the Special menu.
Doing so frees up the space on your hard disk that the container held in
reserve.
Configuring The PC Environment 75Understanding the status line
The status line at the bottom of the control panel gives you messages about
the status of the PC hardware and software. Messages can include any of the
following:
m DOS-compatibility card not present Your computer’s system software did not
recognize the DOS-compatible card installed in your computer. Reinstall
the PC software according to the directions in Chapter 8.
If reinstalling the software doesn’t help, contact an Apple-authorized
service provider for assistance, or call Apple’s customer support hotline.
(The phone number for the hotline is in the service and support
information that came with your computer.)
m PC Setup software not loaded An error occurred during the start-up process
and the DOS environment won’t run.
m PC is running You’ve clicked Start PC and the card is active.
m PC is shut down The card is installed but not running. To start the card,
click Start PC, or select Auto-Start PC and restart the computer.
m PC is turned off The Off button at the top of the PC Setup control panel
is selected.
m Not enough memory Your computer must have at least 8 megabytes (MB)
of RAM installed, and the PC requires at least 2 MB of free RAM if you
don’t have a SIMM installed on the DOS-compatible card for the exclusive
use of the PC. Turn off the RAM disk, if you’re using one, in the Memory
control panel, and restart your Macintosh.
76 Chapter 577
Consult this chapter if you experience
problems using the Mac OS.
When you have questions
If you want to know how to do a particular task in the Mac OS, refer to
Macintosh Guide in the Guide (h) menu. For instructions on using
Macintosh Guide, see Chapter 2 of this manual.
If you have problems working in the PC environment on your Macintosh, see
Chapter 8, “Troubleshooting in the PC Environment.”
If you have questions about using DOS, see your DOS manual.
When you run into trouble
While you’re using your computer, you may occasionally see a bomb icon
or an error message, or you may have a problem such as the pointer (8)
“freezing” on the screen. If you have trouble with your computer, take a few
minutes to read the information in this chapter. If your problem is related to a
particular procedure, you should also look for information on that procedure
in Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu. For additional
troubleshooting information and a list of common questions relating to the
Mac OS, see the “Troubleshooting” topic of Macintosh Guide.
If you are unable to access Macintosh Guide (for example, if your screen
is “frozen”), refer to this chapter to see if you can resolve the problem.
7 Troubleshooting in the Macintosh EnvironmentTake your time
When you see an error message, you don’t have to take action immediately.
The message stays on the screen until you click the OK button or turn off the
Macintosh.
To help diagnose and correct the problem, gather as much information on the
situation as you can before starting over.
m Make a note of exactly what you were doing when the problem occurred.
Write down the message on the screen and its ID number (if any). Also list
the programs you were using and the names of any items you know have
been added to the System Folder since the system software was installed.
This information will help a service person diagnose the problem. (It is
helpful to keep a printed copy of the items in your System Folder. For
instructions on printing the contents of a folder, see the “Printing & Fonts”
topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide [h] menu.)
m Check the screen for any clues. Is a menu selected? What programs and
document icons are open? Note anything else that seems relevant.
m If you were typing text and were not able to save it before the problem
occurred, you can write down the parts of the text still visible on the
screen so that some of your work will be easy to replace.
m Ask other Macintosh users about the problem you’re having; they may have
a solution for it.
If you need repair service, consult the service and support information
that came with your computer for instructions on how to contact an Appleauthorized service provider or Apple for assistance.
78 Chapter 7Start over
Often you can eliminate a problem simply by clearing the computer’s memory
and starting over.
If you can, save any open documents before restarting the Macintosh. If your
system is frozen and does not respond to anything you do, or if you have a
“bomb” message on the screen, saving may not be possible. You can try
pressing x-Option-Esc to quit the program in use when the problem
occurred; if this works, you can then save the documents open in other
programs before restarting.
To restart your Macintosh, try the following steps:
1 If you can, choose Restart from the Special menu or from the dialog box that’s on the
screen.
Dialog boxes contain messages from the computer. If something goes wrong,
a message may appear on the screen, asking you to restart the computer.
2 If you can’t choose Restart, hold down the x and Control keys while you press the
Power key (marked with a triangle).
This key combination restarts the computer. (Use this key combination only
when you can’t choose Restart from the Special menu.)
3 If nothing happens, turn off your computer with the standby power button, wait at least
10 seconds, and then turn it on again.
4 If the standby power button doesn’t turn off the computer, unplug your Macintosh.
If you suspect that the problem is with other equipment, such as a printer or
an external hard disk that’s attached to your computer, turn that equipment off
for 10 seconds or longer, then turn it on again and restart the Macintosh.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 79Rebuild your desktop regularly
A process known as “rebuilding the desktop” helps your Macintosh keep
track of data on your startup disks. Although you usually use the hard disk in
your computer as a startup disk, you can also start up from any other disk that
has system software installed. It’s a good idea to rebuild the desktop of your
startup disks once a month or so.
To rebuild the desktop of a startup disk, follow these steps:
1 Hold down the Option and x keys while you start up your computer.
Do not release the keys until you see a message asking whether you want to
rebuild the desktop.
2 Click OK.
Solutions to common problems
The computer is turned on but the screen is dark.
One of the following is probably the cause:
m You have a screen saver program that darkens the screen when the
computer has not been used for a certain period.
Press a key or move the mouse to turn off the screen saver.
m The monitor’s brightness control (Û) is not adjusted properly.
Check the monitor’s brightness control and turn it up if necessary.
m The Macintosh or the monitor is not getting power.
Make sure the monitor is plugged in and turned on, and that the monitor
cable is firmly connected to both the computer and the monitor.
Make sure the computer’s power cord is firmly connected to the computer
and plugged into a grounded electrical outlet, and that the outlet has power.
If you have more than one monitor and only one is dark, check that it is set
up correctly in the Monitors control panel. For information on using more
than one monitor, see the “Monitors” topic of Macintosh Guide, available
in the Guide (h) menu.
80 Chapter 7m The monitor is plugged into the wrong port on the computer.
Make sure the monitor is plugged into the monitor port (marked with the
ª icon) on the upper-right corner of the computer’s back panel. If the
monitor is plugged into another port, it will not work.
If you are displaying video from your computer on a television screen, it is
normal for your computer monitor to be dark.
The computer won’t start up.
m The game controller is plugged into the wrong port.
Make sure the game controller is plugged into the joystick port on the
lower-right corner of the computer’s back panel. If the game controller is
plugged into another port, the computer will not start up.
The computer’s clock keeps time inaccurately.
Your computer has a clock that runs continuously. When the computer is
turned off, a battery keeps the clock running. If your clock begins to keep
time inaccurately, have your Apple-authorized service provider replace the
battery.
When you start up, a disk icon with a blinking question mark appears in the middle
of the screen.
This icon indicates that your Macintosh cannot find the system software it
needs to start up. One of the following is probably the cause:
m Your computer may be having a problem recognizing external equipment
that uses the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI).
Turn off all external SCSI equipment and disconnect the first SCSI device
in the chain from your computer’s SCSI port. Then restart the computer. If
the computer starts up after you disconnect your SCSI equipment, refer to
the manuals that came with the equipment for information on the proper
way to connect SCSI equipment and assign SCSI ID numbers.
If you have a printer connected to your computer’s SCSI port, make sure
your printer is not supposed to be connected to the printer port instead.
Check the manuals that came with your printer for information on how to
connect it properly.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 81m System software is not installed on the startup hard disk, the system
software is damaged, or the hard disk is not working properly.
Start up your computer using the Disk Tools floppy disk or (if you have a
built-in CD-ROM drive) with the CD-ROM disc that contains system
software. (For instructions on how to start up your computer from the
CD-ROM disc, see “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” in the section
“Initializing a Hard Disk” later in this chapter.) Then follow the
instructions in “Repairing a Damaged Disk” later in this chapter to test
your startup hard disk and repair any damage.
If repairing the disk doesn’t help, follow the instructions in “Installing or
Reinstalling Mac OS System Software” later in this chapter to reinstall
system software on your startup hard disk.
When you try to start up from a floppy disk, a disk icon with an X appears in the middle
of the screen and the floppy disk is ejected.
This icon indicates that the floppy disk you tried to start up from is not a
startup disk.
Wait a few seconds. The computer should start up from its internal hard
disk. Make sure you insert floppy disks only after the computer has begun
starting up.
82 Chapter 7A “sad Macintosh” icon appears and the computer won’t start up.
This icon indicates that your Macintosh cannot start up because of a problem
with the system software or the computer hardware.
Eject any floppy disks by turning off the computer and then holding down
the mouse button while you turn the computer on again. Try starting up with
the Disk Tools floppy disk or (if you have a built-in CD-ROM drive) with the
CD-ROM disc that contains system software. (For instructions on how to start
up your computer from the CD-ROM disc, see “Starting Up From a CD-ROM
Disc” in the section “Initializing a Hard Disk” later in this chapter.) If the “sad
Macintosh” icon appears again, consult the service and support information
that came with your computer for information on contacting an Appleauthorized service provider or Apple for assistance.
The Macintosh “hangs” or freezes during startup.
If the Mac OS is sharing 16MB or more of memory with the PC environment
and Disklight of Norton Utilities 3.1.1 is installed, the computer will freeze
during startup. This does not occur with 8MB or less shared memory. Restart
the Macintosh using one of the techniques described in “Start Over” in the
section “When You Run Into Trouble,” earlier in this chapter. Open the PC
Setup control panel and change the shared memory setting to 8 MB or less.
The hard disk icon does not appear on the desktop.
If you don’t see a hard disk icon on the desktop, try the following:
m If the hard disk is internal, shut down your computer, wait at least 10
seconds, and then turn it on again.
m If the hard disk is external, make sure that it is turned on and that its cable
is connected firmly; then restart the Macintosh.
m Check the ID numbers of all SCSI equipment connected to your computer.
See the manuals that came with your SCSI equipment for information on
setting SCSI ID numbers.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 83m If the hard disk is your startup disk, start your computer using the
Disk Tools floppy disk or (if you have a built-in CD-ROM drive) with the
CD-ROM disc that contains system software. (For instructions on how to
start up your computer from the CD-ROM disc, see “Starting Up From
a CD-ROM Disc” in the section “Initializing a Hard Disk” later in this
chapter.) Then follow the instructions in “Repairing a Damaged Disk”
later in this chapter to test your startup hard disk and repair any damage.
If repairing the disk doesn’t help, follow the instructions in “Installing or
Reinstalling Mac OS System Software” later in this chapter to reinstall
system software on your startup hard disk.
Icons do not appear correctly on your screen.
You need to rebuild the desktop—a process that helps your Macintosh keep
track of files and folders on your hard disks. For instructions, see “Rebuild
Your Desktop Regularly” in the section “When You Run Into Trouble” earlier
in this chapter.
If icons do not appear correctly after you rebuild the desktop, restart your
computer while pressing the Shift key to temporarily turn off system
extensions. When you see the “Welcome to Macintosh—extensions off”
message, release the Shift key and press the Option and x keys until you see
a message asking if you want to rebuild the desktop.
Your Macintosh can’t read a floppy disk.
If you see a message that a floppy disk is unreadable, try one of the following:
m If the disk has never been used, you may simply need to initialize it. For
instructions, see the “Disks” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in in the
Guide (h) menu.
m The disk may be damaged. See “Repairing a Damaged Disk” later in this
chapter for information on testing and repairing disks.
m The disk may be a DOS disk that the Macintosh environment cannot use.
Try switching to the PC environment and inserting the disk again.
84 Chapter 7If you are trying to use a DOS disk in the Macintosh environment, consider
the following:
m The disk may have been formatted incorrectly on a DOS computer (or in
the PC environment on your Macintosh). On DOS computers it’s possible
to format a standard double-sided disk in a high-density (1440K) format,
and vice versa. Disks formatted in this way cannot be read by a Macintosh
computer.
When formatting disks in the DOS environment for use in both the
Mac OS and DOS, always format standard double-sided disks in the 720K
format. Always format high-density disks in the 1440K format.
If a disk has been formatted incorrectly, switch to the PC environment and
copy the disk’s contents onto another disk that has been properly formatted.
The pointer (8) freezes on the screen.
Your system has a software problem.
m Press x-Option-Esc to quit the application program in use when the
problem occurred. If this works, you can save the documents open in other
programs before restarting.
m Restart your Macintosh. (For instructions, see “Start Over” in the section
“When You Run Into Trouble” earlier in this chapter.) Most software
problems are temporary, and restarting usually corrects the problem.
m Check the startup disk and program you were using when the problem
occurred. Make sure that all programs, desk accessories, and system
extensions you’re using are compatible with the system software.
m Sometimes incompatible system extensions or control panels can cause
system software problems. Restart while holding down the Shift key; this
temporarily turns off all system extensions. If your computer works
normally after you do this, remove all extensions from the Extensions
folder (inside the System Folder) and put them back into the Extensions
folder one at a time. Restart after you add each extension. This procedure
should identify any incompatible extensions.
You can also use the Extensions Manager control panel to turn off
individual extensions. For information on using this control panel to
manage system extensions, see the “Setting Options” topic of Macintosh
Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 85m If the problem recurs, you may need to reinstall system software. See
“Installing or Reinstalling System Software” later in this chapter for
instructions.
A dialog box with a bomb appears.
Your system has a software problem.
m Write down what you were doing when the message appeared, the text of
the message, and the message number, if there is one.
m Restart your Macintosh. (See “Start Over” in the section “When You Run
Into Trouble” earlier in this chapter for instructions.) Most software
problems are temporary, and restarting usually corrects the problem.
m Check the startup disk and application program you were using when the
dialog box appeared. Make sure that all programs, desk accessories, and

starting up the computer from the Disk Tools disk or the CD-ROM disc
that contains system software. (For instructions on how to start up your
computer from the CD-ROM disc, see “Starting Up From a CD-ROM
Disc” in the section “Initializing a Hard Disk” later in this chapter.) If
your computer starts up normally, there may be an extension conflict.
If the problem recurs, you may need to reinstall system software. See
“Installing or Reinstalling Mac OS System Software” later in this chapter
for instructions.
m The mouse is not connected properly.
Turn the computer off using the standby power button, check that the
mouse and keyboard cables are connected properly, and then restart the

mouse.
Clean the mouse according to the instructions in Appendix A of this book.
If you have another mouse or pointing device, try connecting and using it.
(Turn off the computer before connecting it.) If the new device works, there
is probably something wrong with the mouse you replaced.
If none of these procedures solves the problem, consult the service and
support information that came with your computer for instructions on how to
contact an Apple-authorized service provider or Apple for assistance.

point (i) or drag to select text (if you want to replace the text with your
typing).
m The keyboard is not connected properly.
Turn off the computer using the standby power button, then check that the
keyboard cable is connected properly at both ends.
If you have a keyboard with an ADB port (marked with the × icon) on
each end, turn off the Macintosh using the standby power button and plug
the keyboard cable into the other ADB port on the keyboard. (You may
have to unplug the mouse to do this.) Then restart the computer.
m The keyboard is damaged.
If you have access to another keyboard, try using it instead. (Turn the
computer off before connecting it.) If the new keyboard works, there is
probably something wrong with the one you replaced.
If none of these procedures solves the problem, consult the service and
support information that came with your computer for instructions on how
to contact an Apple-authorized service provider or Apple for assistance.
88 Chapter 7You can’t start an application program or it quits unexpectedly. Or, when you try to open
a program, you see a message that not enough memory is available.
One of the following is probably the cause:
m The Macintosh ran out of memory.
Quit the programs that you have open and then open the program you want
to use, or restart your Macintosh.
Use the Memory control panel to turn on virtual memory. For more
information on virtual memory, see the “Memory” topic of Macintosh
Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
m The program needs more memory.
Use the program’s Info window to give it more memory. For more
information on increasing a program’s memory, see the “Memory” topic
of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
m The program requires special hardware, such as a floating-point unit
(FPU), and your computer doesn’t have the hardware installed.
Check the documentation that came with the program to find out if the
program requires a Macintosh with special hardware, such as an FPU. Then
check the Technical Information booklet that came with your Macintosh to
find out if your computer is equipped with such special hardware, or if the
hardware can be installed. Consult your Apple-authorized service provider
for information on installing special hardware in your computer.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 89You see a message that an application program can’t be found.
The following dialog box appears if you try to open a document that was
created with software that is not on your hard disk.
Normally, you see this message if you try to open a document that came from
another Macintosh with software that is different from yours.
m The Macintosh Easy Open control panel is not installed. This is a control
panel that you can use to open documents when you don’t have the
program that created them. Reinstall the control panel from the system
software disks or CD-ROM disc containing system software that came with
your computer. (See the section “Installing or Reinstalling Mac OS System
Software” later in this chapter for instructions.) See Appendix D for
instructions on using Macintosh Easy Open.
m Some documents can be opened by more than one application program.
Try starting a program that you think might be able to open the document,
and then choose Open from the program’s File menu to try to open the
document.
m Purchase and install the correct software to use the document, or find out
if the creator of the document can convert it to a form that one of your

Macintosh environment, use the PC Exchange control panel to specify
which Macintosh program will open the document. For information about
working with DOS documents in the Mac OS, see the “Using DOS Files &
Disks” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.
You experience problems using a DOS document.
If you can’t open a DOS document using a Macintosh program, try the
following:
m Open the document from within the program by choosing Open in the
program’s File menu.
m Use the PC Exchange control panel to change the document’s type to one
that can be opened by the program.
If a DOS document is displayed incorrectly, or you see strange codes or
characters in the document, try one of the following:
m Your application program may have special procedures for opening and
saving documents with different file formats. See the information that
came with your program.
m Try opening the document in another program.
Note: Some characters that can be displayed on the Macintosh are not
accurately displayed on DOS computers.
For more information about working with DOS documents in the Mac OS,
see the “Using DOS Files & Disks” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the
Guide (h) menu.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 91The Mac OS is running out of memory even though I’m not running any PC programs.
When sharing memory with the PC environment, the Macintosh allocates a
portion of its memory to the PC. Because of this, the Mac OS may not be able
to load all your system extensions, including the PC Setup control panel.
If this problem occurs, try the following:
m Add memory to the DOS-compatibility card, as described in Appendix B.
m Decrease the shared memory setting.
m Remove PowerTalk and QuickDraw GX from the Extensions folder inside
the System Folder.
m Remove any other system extensions you don’t need.
m Change the name of the PC Setup control panel to !PC Setup so that it
loads first.
Shared memory assigned to the PC isn’t available to the Mac OS until you
turn off the PC. If the previous suggestions don’t solve your problem, click the
Off button at the top of the PC Setup control panel and restart the Macintosh.
92 Chapter 7Initializing a hard disk
Before you can use a new disk, the disk must be prepared so that the
computer knows where to store information on the disk. This preparation is
called initializing (or formatting) the disk.
When do you need to initialize a hard disk?
The hard disk inside your computer was initialized at the factory, so you
shouldn’t need to initialize it. You need to initialize a hard disk only if
m you purchase a hard disk that has not been initialized at the factory
m your hard disk is damaged
If a hard disk needs to be initialized, the disk’s icon does not appear on the
desktop when you start up the computer using another disk.
Starting up from a CD-ROM disc
To initialize, test, or repair a hard disk, or to install system software on a hard
disk, you need to start up your computer from another disk. If your computer
has a CD-ROM drive, you can start up your computer using the CD-ROM
disc containing system software that came with the computer.
To start up the computer using the CD-ROM disc, follow these steps:
1 Turn your computer on.
2 Press the Open/Close button on your CD-ROM drive, and quickly insert the CD-ROM disc
containing system software into the drive.
3 Immediately press and hold down the C key on your keyboard.
Continue to hold down the key until you see the “Welcome to Macintosh”
message.
WARNING Initializing a disk erases any information that may be on it.
Before you initialize a damaged disk, try to repair it as described in
“Repairing a Damaged Disk” later in this chapter.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 93If a blinking question mark appears, or if the computer starts up from your hard
disk: You did not insert the CD-ROM disc quickly enough for the computer to
recognize it as a startup disk. Follow these steps:
1 Shut down your computer.
The CD-ROM disc will remain in the CD-ROM drive.
2 Turn the computer on.
3 Immediately press and hold down the C key on the keyboard.
Continue to hold down the key until you see the “Welcome to Macintosh”
message.
Starting up from a floppy disk
To initialize, test, or repair a hard disk, or to install system software on a
hard disk, you need to start up your computer from another disk. If you don’t
have a built-in CD-ROM drive, you can start up the computer using either
the Disk Tools or Install Disk 1 floppy disk that came with your computer.
To start up your computer using a floppy disk, follow these steps:
1 Shut down your computer.
2 Insert the floppy disk into the disk drive.
If you want to initialize, test, or repair your hard disk, use the Disk Tools
disk to start up your computer. If you want to install Mac OS system software,
use the Install Disk 1 disk.
3 Turn the computer on.
94 Chapter 7Reinitializing your computer’s internal hard disk
You initialize the internal hard disk using a program called Internal HD
Format, which is on the floppy disk labeled Disk Tools that came with your
computer. If your computer came with a CD-ROM drive and you didn’t
receive floppy disks, you can find Internal HD Format on the CD-ROM disc
that contains system software.
1 Start up your computer from the Disk Tools disk or the CD-ROM disc that contains
system software.
See “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” or “Starting Up From a Floppy
Disk” earlier in this section.
2 Double-click the Internal HD Format icon to open it.
You may need to look in a folder called Utilities to find Internal HD Format.
3 Type a name for your disk in the name box.
4 If you want to make sure that none of the hard disk’s original information is recognizable
after reinitialization, choose Zero Data in the Options menu.
If you choose Zero Data, initialization may take a few minutes. (If you don’t
choose Zero Data, initialization will take less than 30 seconds.)
5 Click Initialize.
A message informs you that initializing the disk erases all information on it.
6 Click OK.
During initialization, a status bar shows you the progress of the initialization.
7 When the initialization is complete, click Done.
If a message reports that initialization failed, try again. If initialization fails
a second time, take the disk to your Apple-authorized service provider for
repair.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 95Initializing an external SCSI hard disk
You initialize an Apple external SCSI hard disk using a program called Apple
HD SC Setup, which is on the floppy disk labeled Disk Tools that came with
your computer. If your computer came with a CD-ROM drive and you didn’t
receive floppy disks, you can find Apple HD SC Setup on the CD-ROM disc
that contains system software.
1 Start up your computer from the Disk Tools disk or the CD-ROM disc that contains
system software.
See “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” or “Starting Up From a Floppy
Disk” earlier in this section.
2 Open the Apple HD SC Setup icon.
You may need to look in a folder called Utilities to find Apple HD SC Setup.
3 Click Drive until the disk you want to initialize appears.
You cannot initialize the disk that you used to start up your computer or the
disk that contains the Apple HD SC Setup program.
4 Click Initialize.

Repairing a damaged disk
Disks can become damaged by repeated use and handling.
When do you need to repair a disk?
If you see a message reporting that a disk is damaged or unreadable, you may
need to repair the disk.
Try these suggestions first
If you can’t start up from a hard disk or you don’t see the hard disk icon on the
desktop, try the following:
m If the hard disk is internal, shut down your Macintosh, wait at least 10
seconds, and then turn it on again.
m If the hard disk is external, make sure that it is turned on and that its cable
is connected firmly; then restart the Macintosh.
m If the hard disk is your startup disk, start up with a different startup disk. If
the hard disk’s icon appears on your desktop, reinstall system software on
the hard disk (see “Installing or Reinstalling System Software” later in this
chapter).
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 97
Click here to initialize the disk. m Check the ID numbers of all SCSI equipment connected to your computer.
Each device must have a unique ID number (the computer itself has the ID
number 7). Also check that the chain of devices is terminated properly. For
information on setting SCSI ID numbers and terminating a SCSI chain,
see the manuals that came with your SCSI equipment.
m Test the disk following the instructions that come next.
Checking for damage on your internal hard disk
You can check for damage on your internal hard disk with the Internal HD
Format program, which is on the floppy disk labeled Disk Tools that came with
your computer. If your computer has a built-in CD-ROM drive and you didn’t
receive floppy disks, you can find the Internal HD Format program on the
CD-ROM disc that contains system software. You can use Internal HD Format
at any time to check for damaged blocks (segments of the hard disk that
cannot reliably be used to store information).
1 Start up your computer from the Disk Tools disk or the CD-ROM disc that contains
system software.
See “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” or “Starting Up From a Floppy
Disk” in the section “Initializing a Hard Disk” earlier in this chapter.
2 Open the Internal HD Format icon.
You may need to look in a folder called Utilities to find Internal HD Format.
3 Choose Scan All Blocks in the Functions menu.
If the program finds damaged blocks, it marks them so the computer will not
store information in them. This process does not harm any information on the
hard disk.
98 Chapter 7Testing an external SCSI hard disk
You can test an external Apple SCSI hard disk with the Apple HD SC Setup
program, which is on the floppy disk labeled Disk Tools that came with your
computer. If your computer has a built-in CD-ROM drive, and you didn’t
receive floppy disks, you can find the Apple HD SC Setup program on the
CD-ROM disc that contains system software.
1 Start up your computer from the Disk Tools disk or the CD-ROM disc that contains
system software.
See “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” or “Starting Up From a Floppy
Disk” in the section “Initializing a Hard Disk” earlier in this chapter.
2 Open the Apple HD SC Setup icon.
You may need to look in a folder called Utilities to find Apple HD SC Setup.
3 Click Drive until the disk you want appears.
4 Click Test.
5 When a message tells you that testing is complete, click Quit.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 99

in this chapter). Consult an Apple-authorized service provider for assistance,
if necessary.
How to repair a hard disk or floppy disk
You can repair some types of disk damage by using the Disk First Aid
program, which is included either on the Disk Tools floppy disk or on the
CD-ROM disc containing system software that came with your computer.
1 Start up your computer from the Disk Tools disk or the CD-ROM disc that contains
system software.
See “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” or “Starting Up From a Floppy
Disk” in the section “Initializing a Hard Disk” earlier in this chapter.
2 Open the Disk First Aid icon.

3 Click the icon of the disk you want to test.
Disk icons appear in a box at the top of the Disk First Aid window.
100 Chapter 74 Click Repair to begin testing and repairing the disk.
You can’t repair the startup disk or the disk that contains the Disk First Aid
program, but you can test these disks by clicking Verify. If the program
reveals a problem with either of these disks, start up the computer from
another disk so that you can repair the damaged disk.
If you want to test and repair another disk, click its icon and then click
Repair.
5 When testing and repair are finished, choose Quit from the File menu.
If Disk First Aid cannot correct the problem
m Try repairing the disk again. Sometimes repeating the process corrects the
problem.
m Use another disk repair or recovery program. Some disk repair programs
let you recover information from a damaged disk.
m Consult a computer repair specialist for help.
m Once you have recovered all the information you can, erase (reinitialize)
the disk. If initialization doesn’t work, discard the damaged disk (if it’s a
floppy disk), or take it to your Apple-authorized service provider for repair
(if it’s a hard disk).
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 101Installing or reinstalling Mac OS system software
System software is the set of programs and other files that the Mac OS uses to
start itself up, keep track of your files, and run the application programs you
use. System software is kept in the folder called the System Folder. When you
turn on your computer, it looks for a startup disk, which is a disk that
contains the system software. The startup disk is usually the hard disk that’s
inside your computer, although another hard disk or a floppy disk can also be
a startup disk.
The accessory kit that came with your Macintosh provides system software on
either a set of floppy disks or a CD-ROM disc. You can use the floppy disks
or the CD-ROM disc to install the system software on your Macintosh if you
need to do so.
When should you install system software?
Your Macintosh came with all the necessary system software installed on its
internal hard disk, so you don’t need to install system software on that disk
unless you encounter software problems.
If you have a new hard disk or a newly initialized hard disk that doesn’t
contain system software, or if you want to upgrade to a more recent version of
system software on a hard disk, follow the instructions in “Installing System
Software” later in this chapter.
If you want to install DOS on a drive container or another volume that
you’re using as a PC drive, see “Reinstalling PC Software” in the section
“Reinstalling the DOS-Compatibility Software” in Chapter 8.
When should you reinstall system software?
If you have a problem with your system software, you may see this icon in the
middle of the screen:
If this icon appears, follow the instructions in “Repairing a Damaged Disk”
earlier in this chapter to test your startup hard disk and repair any damage.
102 Chapter 7If repairing the disk doesn’t help, follow the instructions in the next section,
“Installing System Software,” to reinstall system software on your startup
hard disk.
Installing system software
Follow the steps in this section to do what is commonly called a “normal”
installation of system software.
If you’re installing system software on a hard disk for the first time, make sure
that your hard disk has been initialized, a process that prepares the disk to
store information. If you see the hard disk’s icon on the desktop when you
start up the computer, the disk has been initialized. If no disk icon appears
when you start up, see “Initializing a Hard Disk” earlier in this chapter for
instructions.
To do a normal installation, follow these steps:
1 Start up your computer from the Disk Tools disk or the CD-ROM disc that contains
system software.
See “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” or “Starting Up From a Floppy
Disk” in the section “Initializing a Hard Disk” earlier in this chapter.
2 Find and open the Disk First Aid icon.
You may need to look in a folder called Utilities to find Disk First Aid.
After Disk First Aid starts, follow the instructions on the screen. Disk First
Aid checks your hard disk for any problems.
3 When Disk First Aid has finished checking your hard disk, choose Quit from the
File menu.
4 Shut down your computer.

If, after reinstalling system software by doing a normal installation, you still
experience problems with your computer, follow the steps in the next section
for doing a “clean” installation of system software.
IMPORTANT Certain system extensions or application programs that were
originally on your hard disk may not be installed with the Installer program.
If you notice that a certain extension or program was not installed, you may
need to install it separately. You can find these additional extensions and
programs on the CD-ROM disc that contains system software. If you don’t
have a CD-ROM drive, see the service and support information that came
with your computer for information on how to contact Apple directly for
assistance.
Doing a clean installation of system software
The steps in this section outline what is commonly called a “clean”
installation of system software. Do a clean installation if you can’t determine
what is damaged in your System Folder (especially if you think any special
software, such as control panels, system extensions, or custom utilities, may be
causing the problems you’re experiencing). You should also do a clean
installation if you’re still having problems with your computer after you’ve
reinstalled system software by doing a normal installation.
Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 105Testing your hard disk
To prepare your hard disk for a clean installation, follow these steps:
1 Start up your computer from the Disk Tools disk or the CD-ROM disc that contains
system software.
See “Starting Up From a CD-ROM Disc” or “Starting Up From a Floppy
Disk” in the section “Initializing a Hard Disk” earlier in this chapter.

Troubleshooting in the Macintosh Environment 111When you have questions
Read this chapter when you have questions about using the PC environment
on your Macintosh.
If you have questions about using DOS or DOS application programs, see
your DOS manual or the manuals that came with your programs.
WARNING If you have a problem with your DOS-compatibility hardware
or software and nothing presented in this manual solves it, consult the
service and support information that came with your computer for
instructions on how to contact an Apple-authorized service provider or
Apple for assistance. If you attempt to repair the DOS-compatibility
hardware yourself, any damage you may cause to the DOS-compatibility
hardware will not be covered by the limited warranty on your DOScompatible Macintosh. Contact an Apple-authorized dealer or service
provider for additional information about this or any other warranty
question.
113
8 Troubleshooting in the PC Environment
Consult this chapter if you have
problems using the PC environment
on your Macintosh.When I try to switch to DOS, my screen is blank or has no synchronization.
If the monitor has never worked in DOS, it is most likely not able to
synchronize properly to the DOS video signal. Refer to the information in the
Technical Information booklet on monitor specifications and video modes, and
check with your monitor vendor to see if your monitor conforms to these
specifications.
If your monitor was working previously, verify that its type is selected in the
Display pop-up menu of the PC Setup control panel.
If its type doesn’t show, use the Display pop-up menu to select the correct
type. Restart the computer and, immediately after the chime sounds, hold
down the x-Option-P-R keys. When you hear another chime, release the keys.
Then open the PC Setup control panel again. You’ll get a message that PC
Setup is not properly installed. This is normal. Verify the settings, and restart
the computer again.
The Macintosh “hangs” or freezes during startup.
If the Mac OS is sharing 16 MB or more of memory with the PC
environment, and Disklight of Norton Utilities 3.1.1 is installed, the computer
will freeze during startup. This does not occur with 8 MB or less shared
memory. Restart the Macintosh using one of the techniques described in
“Start Over” in the section “When You Run Into Trouble” in Chapter 7. Open
the PC Setup control panel and change the shared memory setting to 8 MB
or less.
The DOS-compatibility software doesn’t seem to be installed.
Open the Control Panels folder and look for the PC Setup control panel. If
you find it, the DOS-compatibility software is installed. If not, or if you find
it but it doesn’t work, there may be a problem with the software. Reinstall the
software according to the instructions in “Reinstalling the DOS-compatibility
Software,” later in this chapter.
If you do find the PC Setup control panel, open it. If drive C is mapped to a
drive container, a drive container has been created. If drive C is not mapped
to a drive container, follow the instructions in “Creating a Drive Container”
in the section “Reinstalling the DOS-Compatibility Software” later in this
chapter.
114 Chapter 8When I switch to the PC environment, I see this message: “Non-system disk or disk
error. Replace and strike any key when ready.”
The DOS-compatibility hardware can’t find DOS.
Switch to the Mac OS by pressing x-Return, open the PC Setup control
panel, and make sure drive C is mapped to a drive container. If not, follow the
instructions under “Configuring Drives C and D” in Chapter 6.
If drive C is mapped to a drive container, it may not be the drive container
that holds DOS. If other drive containers have been created, double-click each
one in the Mac OS and look for DOS folders and files. If you locate a
container with DOS in it, map it to drive C.
If no drive container exists, the PC software may not be installed. First, create
a drive container by following the instructions under “Configuring Drives
C and D” in Chapter 6. Then follow the instructions under “Reinstalling PC
Software” in the section “Reinstalling the DOS-Compatibility Software” later
in this chapter.
I’m running applications in both environments and they seem sluggish.
You may be sharing Macintosh RAM with the PC. Performance may improve
if you give the PC environment its own memory by installing a SIMM
(memory module) on the DOS-compatibility card in your computer. For
instructions, see Appendix B.
Additionally, significant drive access in one environment (including file
sharing) can cause a slowdown in the other.
There is a delay when switching between environments.
When switching would interfere with a Mac OS system task, there is a slight
delay until the task is completed.
There also may be a delay while clipboard information is transferred between
the two environments. (If there’s a large amount of information on the
clipboard, you may actually see the translator window.)
If Shutdown Warning is turned on in the General Controls panel in the Mac
OS, you cannot switch back to the Mac OS immediately after switching to the
PC. Wait a few minutes and try switching again. To fix the problem, open the
General Controls panel in the Mac OS and turn off the Shutdown
Warning option.
Troubleshooting in the PC Environment 115I switched to the PC environment and I can’t figure out how to switch back to the
Mac OS.
Press x-Return at any time to switch to the Mac OS.
Inserting a PC-format disk in the Mac OS brings up an initialization message.
Macintosh PC Exchange may not be installed. Look in the Control Panels
folder for a control panel called Macintosh PC Exchange. If you don’t find it,
reinstall Macintosh PC Exchange from the floppy disks or CD-ROM disc that
contains system software.

I’m in the PC environment and I can’t figure out how to eject a CD-ROM disc.
Press x-Y.
The PC drive file I initialized has only one partition.
Macintosh PC Exchange configures drives to have a single partition. The DOS
program FDISK can configure a drive with up to four partitions. See your
DOS manual for more information.
The PC won’t start up, and there’s a message saying there is not enough free memory.
Your computer must have at least 8 MB of RAM installed. If you don’t have a
SIMM installed for the exclusive use of the PC environment (see the Technical
Information booklet), the PC requires at least 2 MB of free RAM if you are
using DOS, and 4 MB if you are using Windows. Turn off the RAM disk, if
you’re using one, in the Memory control panel. Additionally, set the disk
cache size in the Memory control panel to 128K or less.
116 Chapter 8The PC Setup icon has a red slash through it at startup.
If PC Setup doesn’t have enough memory to allocate to the PC at startup time,
it will turn itself off. Check the Memory control panel for disk cache and
RAM disk sizes; the disk cache should be set no higher than 128K, and the
RAM disk should be off (or have a small amount of memory allocated to it).
Restart the Macintosh if you change either of these settings.
If these steps don’t correct the problem, throw away the PC Setup Prefs file in
the Preferences folder within the System Folder and restart the Macintosh.
Then use the PC Setup control panel to recreate your settings.
When I switch to the Mac OS from the PC environment, the following message appears:
“PC Clipboard requires additional system services in order to function. Please ensure
that the DOS-compatibility card is successfully installed.”
Macintosh Easy Open software is either not installed or has been turned off.
Turn on the Macintosh Easy Open control panel, or reinstall it from the DOS
Compatibility Installer (for the Mac OS) disk. If your computer has a built-in
CD-ROM drive and you don’t have the floppy disk, use the DOS Compatibility
Installer program on the CD-ROM disc that contains system software.
I set the DOS-compatibility card to use 4 MB (or more) of RAM, but I get an error
message from my PC application program saying that there’s not enough memory
to run it.
If you are sharing memory between the Macintosh and PC, the Mac OS may
be using some of the RAM you requested for the PC. Turn off the RAM disk,
if you’re using one, in the Memory control panel; then restart the Macintosh.
A PC program displays a message that it needs 540K to run, but I have 4MB of memory
allocated to the PC environment.
The program is referring to conventional memory. Most of the balance of the
4 MB of memory you assigned to the PC is used by the EMM386 memory
management software. Configure your application program to use more
extended memory and less conventional memory. You may also need to
disable some device drivers or other software in your CONFIG.SYS and
AUTOEXEC.BAT files to free up more conventional RAM. See the section
on managing memory in your DOS manual for more information.
Troubleshooting in the PC Environment 117The Mac OS is running out of memory even though I’m not running any PC programs.
When sharing memory with the PC environment, the Macintosh allocates a
portion of its memory to the PC. Because of this, the Mac OS may not be
able to load all your system extensions, including the PC Setup control panel.
If this problem occurs, try the following:
m Add memory to the DOS-compatibility card, as described in Appendix B.
m Decrease the shared memory setting.
m Remove PowerTalk and QuickDraw GX from the Extensions folder inside
the System Folder.
m Remove any other system extensions you don’t need.
m Change the name of the PC Setup control panel to !PC Setup so that it
loads first.
Shared memory assigned to the PC isn’t available to the Mac OS until you
turn off the PC. If the previous suggestions don’t solve your problem, click the
Off button at the top of the PC Setup control panel and restart the Macintosh.
My monitor flashes oddly when I switch environments.
This is a natural effect when a single monitor is used by two different
environments. Turn on the Fade Screens option in the PC Setup control panel.
The PC environment is frozen, and pressing Control-Alt-Delete doesn’t reset the system.
Press the x-Control-Alt-[keypad] period keys. The system will reset with a
cold start.
When I print a document in the PC environment, the top and bottom get clipped.
In the Mac OS, open PC Print Spooler in the Extensions folder, choose
Preferences from the File menu, and click “Gaps between pages (60-lines).”
In the PC environment, configure your applications to print to a 60 line page,
rather than a 66-line page, or your margins will be off and your pages will
not print correctly.
118 Chapter 8When I start up certain software in the PC environment, my Apple monitor shows a
jumbled image and the display rolls.
Some application programs that write directly to the hardware (especially
games) may cause the Apple 13", 14", and 16" monitors to lose video
synchronization at program startup. Call the software company to see if the
software has a switch to force it to make BIOS calls (or if an upgrade is
available with this feature).
DOS begins to start up but then the screen freezes. My cursor blinks, but I cannot
type anything.
Press x-Control-Alt-[keyboard] period to restart the PC. When you see the
message “Starting MS-DOS,” press and hold the F5 key. This will bypass your
CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files. Edit the CONFIG.SYS file so that
the HIMEM.SYS driver looks like the following:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /TESTMEM:OFF
Restart the PC; it should now start up normally.
Reinstalling the DOS-compatibility software
Your Macintosh DOS-compatible computer comes with the
DOS-compatibility hardware and software already installed. You
should reinstall the software only if you are having severe software problems.
Follow the instructions in this section.
There are several steps to reinstalling your DOS-compatibility software:
m install the Mac OS software
m create a storage area (called a drive container) for DOS software
m set aside RAM for the PC environment, if necessary
m install the Microsoft MS-DOS operating system (and Microsoft Windows
if you wish)
m install the additional DOS software that came with your DOS-compatible
computer
m install your own PC software
For information on setting up the software after you install it, including
additional changes you may need to make to the DOS AUTOEXEC.BAT and
CONFIG.SYS files, see Chapter 5.
Troubleshooting in the PC Environment 119Reinstalling Mac OS software
You’ll install several extensions and control panels in your System Folder.
1 Start up your Macintosh while holding down the Shift key.
This starts the Macintosh with extensions turned off.
2 Insert the floppy disk named DOS Compatibility Installer Disk (for Mac OS Environment)
into the floppy disk drive.
If your computer has a built in CD-ROM drive, and you don’t have this floppy
disk, insert the CD-ROM disc that contains system software.
3 Find the DOS Compatibility Installer icon and double-click it to open it.
4 Click Install in the dialog box that appears.
The software is automatically installed onto your hard disk.
5 When the installation is complete, click Quit and restart your Macintosh.

120 Chapter 8Creating a drive container
A drive container is a file on a Macintosh hard disk that acts as a hard drive
for the PC. You create a drive container using the PC Setup control panel.
1 Open the PC Setup control panel.
2 Choose New Drive File from the C: pop-up menu.
A dialog box appears.
3 Choose a location for the drive container.
The drive container can be on any hard disk attached to the Macintosh. At
least 40 MB of free space is recommended.
Troubleshooting in the PC Environment 121It’s best to locate the container at the root level of your hard disk (not in any
folders or sub-folders) so that you can locate it easily.
4 Type a name for the drive container.
You can type up to 31 characters. Pick a descriptive name such as PC Drive or
PC Container so that you can easily identify it.
When you finish, press the Tab key to move to the Size field.
5 Type a size (in MB) for the drive container.
At least 40 MB is recommended. The exact amount of space you need
depends on what application programs you intend to install for DOS and
Windows. Check the documentation that came with the programs to see
how much space you’ll need, then allow some extra room for growth.
(The software included with your DOS-compatible computer requires
about 25 MB.)
6 Check Initialize Drive File to automatically initialize the drive container with a single
partition.
If you want more than one partition, you can leave the box unchecked and use
the FDISK and FORMAT programs after you’ve installed DOS. (See your
DOS manual for instructions and information about the FDISK and
FORMAT commands and their options.)
7 Click Create.
Assigning RAM to the PC
The PC needs memory to operate. You can provide memory with a memory
module (SIMM) installed on the DOS-compatibility card in your computer,
or by assigning it RAM from your Macintosh. If a memory module is
installed on the DOS-compatibility card, the RAM pop-up menu options
will be dimmed (unavailable). The amount of memory available to the PC
will depend of the amount of RAM on the installed SIMM. See the Technical
Specifications booklet to find out whether your DOS-compatibility card
includes a SIMM and what RAM capacity the SIMM has. If a SIMM is
installed, skip to “Reinstalling PC Software,” next.
122 Chapter 8Memory installed on the DOS-compatibility card in your computer is for the
exclusive use of the PC environment, and provides a marked increase in
performance of PC applications.
If no memory module is installed, you need to assign RAM to the PC.
1 Choose a memory size from the RAM pop-up menu in the PC Setup control panel.
If you’re installing DOS only, choose a minimum of 2 MB. If you intend to
install Windows, choose a minimum of 4 MB.
Note: Windows performance will increase if you allocate more memory to
the PC. However, RAM assigned to the PC is not available in the Mac OS
until you turn off the card in the PC Setup control panel and restart the
computer.
2 Restart the Macintosh.
IMPORTANT If the RAM size is set to 2 MB, modify the CONFIG.SYS file in
DOS as follows:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /TESTMEM:OFF
Reinstalling PC software
You begin by installing the Microsoft MS-DOS operating system included
with your computer. You can also install Microsoft Windows if you wish.
1 Open the PC Setup control panel and click Switch to PC.
The Macintosh desktop disappears, and you see a message about a missing
operating system or about a disk error. Ignore the message.
2 Insert the CD-ROM disc containing DOS and Windows software into the computer’s
CD-ROM drive.
If you are using floppy disks, insert the Microsoft MS-DOS Setup floppy disk
and press Return.
The DOS disks and manual are in the same shrink-wrapped package.
3 If you are using the CD-ROM disc, find and open Microsoft MS-DOS Setup.
Troubleshooting in the PC Environment 1234 Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
If you are using floppy disks, press x-E to eject a disk when necessary.
Note: The MS-DOS installation disks do not include a DOS mouse driver.
A mouse driver for Windows is automatically installed, however, if you install
Microsoft Windows. Mouse drivers for DOS are widely available from thirdparty sources.
5 When DOS installation is complete, you may want to install Windows. If you are using
the CD-ROM disc, find and open the file called Windows Series Installation Instruction
Diskette 1 of 6, type A:setup, and press Return.
If you are using floppy disks, insert the disk labeled Windows Series
Installation Instruction Diskette 1 of 6, type A:setup, and press Return.
The Windows disks and manual are in the same shrink-wrapped package.
You can skip this and the next step if you don’t want to install Windows.
6 Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
If you are using floppy disks, press x-E to eject a disk when necessary.
The following PC software is now installed:
DOS (directory)
WINDOWS (directory)
COMMAND.COM
AUTOEXEC.BAT
CONFIG.SYS
124 Chapter 8Installing additional PC software
Your DOS-compatible computer comes with additional software utilities that
you may want to install. The following table describes the function of each
program. For more information on using these programs, see Chapter 5,
“Operating in the PC Environment.”
Program name Function
DOSCLIP Lets you copy and paste between DOS and Mac OS.
WINCLIP Lets you copy and paste between Windows and Mac OS.
MACSHARE Lets you share Mac OS volumes and folders with the PC environment.
CDROM Lets you access your Macintosh CD-ROM drive from the PC environment.
MACODI Provides support for accessing networks in the PC environment.
To install the additional software, follow these steps:
1 With the PC environment on the screen, insert the disk named DOS Compatibility
Installer Disk (for PC Environment) into the disk drive.
2 Choose one of the options below to install software for either DOS alone or both DOS
and Windows.
m To install software for DOS alone, type A:INSTALL at the DOS prompt
and press Return.
m To install software for both DOS and Windows, start Windows, select the
Run command from the File menu, type A:SETUP for the program name,
and click OK.
3 Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
Troubleshooting in the PC Environment 125Replacing the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files
Your DOS-compatible PC software includes alternate versions of the
CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files that let you select from a variety of
DOS memory-management options. Each time you start DOS, you will see a
menu that asks if you want to optimize memory for just DOS, for a DOS
program that requires maximum conventional memory, for a DOS program
that requires maximum expanded memory, or if you want to start Windows
immediately.
To install the alternate CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files, follow
these instructions:
1 Switch to the PC environment.
2 At the DOS prompt, type the following:
C:
REN CONFIG.SYS CONFIG.BAK
REN AUTOEXEC.BAT AUTOEXEC.BAK
COPY ALT_CFGS\CONFIG.APL CONFIG.SYS
COPY ALT_CFGS\AUTOEXEC.APL AUTOEXEC.BAT
3 To restart the PC with the alternate files installed, type Control-Alt-[keypad] period.
If your keyboard has a Delete key, you can press Control-Alt-Delete instead.
The PC restarts and the new menu appears.
Modifying the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files
You may want to modify the CONFIG.SYS file by hand to meet specific
needs. Use the DOS Edit command (or any other DOS or Windows editor)
and make the changes listed below.
IMPORTANT Make backup copies of your original files before you change
them. That way you still have your originals in case problems develop.
Be sure to save the file when you are finished. To prevent the ROM BIOS
from becoming corrupted when the PC is configured for 2 MB of memory, be
sure to add the underlined text to the indicated line:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS/ TESTMEM:OFF
126 Chapter 8If you do not intend to use software that requires expanded memory (EMS),
make the following change:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE NOEMS RAM=D000-EFFF
If you intend to use software that does use expanded memory, or you’re
unsure what you may need in the future, make the following change:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM=D000-EFFF FRAME=D000
Depending on how you have reconfigured the file, your CONFIG.SYS file
should look something like this:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\SETVER.EXE
DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEM.SYS /TESTMEM:OFF
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM=D000-EFFF FRAME=D000
DOS=HIGH,UMB
FILES=30
LASTDRIVE=M
Additionally, your AUTOEXEC.BAT file should contain the following:
LH C:\DOS\SMARTDRV.EXE /X
@ECHO OFF
PROMPT $p$g
PATH C:\WINDOWS;C:\DOS
SET TEMP=C:\DOS
(The reference to Windows in the PATH line applies only if you chose to
install Windows.)
See your DOS manual to learn how to edit and save your DOS files.
IMPORTANT Some memory configuration utilities, such as MEMMAKER,
may not be able to determine the exact nature of the hardware of the DOScompatible computer and, therefore, may not be compatible. Additionally,
using third-party compression software such as DriveSpace on a drive
container prevents you from accessing the container or the files within it
from the Mac OS. For these reasons, Apple does not recommend using these
programs with your DOS-compatible computer.
Troubleshooting in the PC Environment 127Bypassing the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files at startup
To bypass the CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files during the startup
process, press and hold the F5 key (x-5 on non-extended keyboards) after the
memory testing is complete.
Reinstalling Sound Blaster software
To install Sound Blaster software, follow these steps:
1 Insert the Sound Blaster Software Installation disk in the floppy disk drive while the PC is
in the foreground.
2 From DOS, type A:INSTALL and press Return.
3 Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
4 Restart DOS to use the new software.
To do so, press Control-Alt-[keypad] period.
See the enclosed manual, Using PC Sounds with the DOS-Compatibility Card,
for information about using the Sound Blaster utilities.
Reinstalling video drivers
If you intend to run Windows with 256 colors at a resolution of 640 by 480
pixels, or if you intend to use an Apple 16" or VGA display with 16 colors at a
resolution of 800 by 600 pixels, follow these steps:
1 Insert the Display Drivers Disk 1 disk in the floppy disk drive while the PC is in the
foreground.
2 From DOS, type A: and press Return to set the current drive to A.
3 Type SETUP and press Return to run the setup program.
Follow the instructions on the screen to install the video drivers. Select
Windows 3.1 as the application.

Health-related information about computer use
Muscle soreness, eye fatigue, and other discomforts and injuries sometimes
associated with using computers can occur from performing any number of
activities. In fact, misuse of the same muscles during multiple activities can
create a problem that might not otherwise exist. For example, if you engage
in nonwork activities that involve repetitive stress on the wrist—such as
bicycling—and also use your computer’s keyboard improperly, you may
increase your likelihood of developing wrist problems. Some individuals are
at greater risk of developing these problems because of their health,
physiology, lifestyle, and general exposure to stress. Work organization and
conditions, such as workstation setup and lighting, also play a part in your
overall health and comfort. Preventing health problems is a multifaceted task
that requires careful attention to the way you use your body every hour of
every day.
The most common health effects associated with using a computer are
musculoskeletal discomfort and eye fatigue. We’ll discuss each area of
concern below.
129
Appendix A
Health, Safety, and Maintenance Tips
Read this appendix for important
health and safety instructions,
as well as tips on keeping your
computer in good working order.Musculoskeletal discomfort
As with any activity that involves sitting for long periods of time, using a
computer can make your muscles sore and stiff. To minimize these effects, set
up your work environment carefully, using the guidelines that follow, and take
frequent breaks to rest tired muscles. To make working with your computer
more comfortable, allow enough space in your work area so that you can
change position frequently and maintain a relaxed posture.
Another type of musculoskeletal concern is repetitive stress injuries (RSIs),
also known as cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs). These problems can
occur when a certain muscle or tendon is repeatedly overused and forced into
an unnatural position. The exact causes of RSIs are not totally understood, but
in addition to awkward posture, such factors as the amount of repetition, the
force used in the activity, the individual’s physiology, workplace stress level,
and lifestyle may affect the likelihood of experiencing an RSI.
RSIs did not suddenly arise when computers were invented; tennis elbow and
writer’s cramp, for example, are two RSIs that have been with us for a long
time. Although less common than other RSIs, one serious RSI discussed more
often today is a wrist problem called carpal tunnel syndrome, which may be
aggravated by improper use of computer keyboards. This nerve disorder
results from excessive pressure on the median nerve as it passes through the
wrist to the hand.
This section offers advice on setting up your work area to enhance your
comfort while you use your computer. Since the effects of repetitive
movements associated with using a computer can be compounded by those of
other work and leisure activities to produce or aggravate physical problems,
proper use of your computer system must be considered as just one element
of a healthy lifestyle.
No one, of course, can guarantee that you won’t have problems even when you
follow the most expert advice on using computer equipment. You should
always check with a qualified health specialist if muscle, joint, or eye
problems occur.
130 Appendix AEye fatigue
Eye fatigue can occur whenever the eyes are focused on a nearby object for a
long time. This problem occurs because the eye muscles must work harder to
view an object that’s closer than about 20 feet (6 meters). Improper lighting
can hasten the development of eye fatigue. Although eye fatigue is annoying,
there’s no evidence that it leads to permanent damage.
Whenever you’re engaged in an activity that involves close-up work—such as
reading a magazine, doing craft work, or using a computer—be sure to have
sufficient glare-free lighting and give your eyes frequent rest breaks by
looking up and focusing on distant objects. Remember to have your eyes
examined regularly.
To prevent discomfort and eye fatigue:
m Arrange your workspace so that the furniture is properly adjusted for you
and doesn’t contribute to an awkward working posture.
m Take frequent short breaks to give your muscles and eyes a chance to rest.
Arranging your office
Here are some guidelines for adjusting the furniture in your office to
accommodate your physical size and shape.
m An adjustable chair that provides firm, comfortable support is best. Adjust
the height of the chair so your thighs are horizontal and your feet flat on
the floor.
The back of the chair should support your lower back (lumbar region).
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for adjusting the backrest to fit your
body properly.
m When you use the computer keyboard, your shoulders should be relaxed.
Your upper arm and forearm should form an approximate right angle, with
your wrist and hand in roughly a straight line.
Health, Safety, and Maintenance Tips 131You may have to raise your chair so your forearms and hands are at the
proper angle to the keyboard. If this makes it impossible to rest your feet
flat on the floor, you can use a footrest with adjustable height and tilt to
make up for any gap between the floor and your feet. Or you may lower
the desktop to eliminate the need for a footrest. Another option is to use a
desk with a keyboard tray that’s lower than the regular work surface.
m Position the mouse at the same height as your keyboard. Allow adequate
space to use the mouse comfortably.
m Arrange the monitor so the top of the screen is slightly below your eye
level when you’re sitting at the keyboard. The best distance from your eyes
to the screen is up to you, although most people seem to prefer 18 to 28
inches (45 to 70 cm).
m Position the monitor to minimize glare and reflections on the screen from
overhead lights and windows. You may want to use a tiltable monitor
stand. The stand lets you set the monitor at the best angle for viewing,
helping to reduce or eliminate glare from lighting sources you can’t move.
Thighs horizontal
Shoulders relaxed
Screen positioned to avoid
reflected glare
Forearms and hands
in a straight line
Forearms level
or tilted up slightly
Lower back supported
Feet flat on the floor
Top of the screen at or slightly
below eye level (You may need
to adjust the height of your
monitor by placing something
under it or by raising your
work surface.)
Clearance under work surface
45–70 cm (18–28 in.)
132 Appendix AAvoiding fatigue
m Change your seated position, stand up, or stretch whenever you start to feel
tired. Frequent short breaks are helpful in reducing fatigue.
m Use a light touch when typing or using a mouse and keep your hands and
fingers relaxed.
m Some computer users may develop discomfort in their hands, wrists, or
arms after intensive work without breaks. If you begin to develop chronic
pain or discomfort in your hands, wrists, or arms, consult a qualified
health specialist.
m Allow adequate work space so that you can use your keyboard and mouse
comfortably. Place papers or other items so you can view them easily while
using your computer. A document stand may make reading papers more
comfortable.
m Eye muscles must work harder to focus on nearby objects. Occasionally
focus your eyes on a distant object, and blink often while you work.
m Clean your screen regularly. Keeping the screen clean helps reduce
unwanted reflections.
What about electromagnetic emissions?
There has been recent public discussion of the possible health effects of
prolonged exposure to extremely low frequency (ELF) and very low
frequency (VLF) electromagnetic fields. Such fields are associated with
electromagnetic sources such as television sets, electrical wiring, and some
household appliances—as well as computer monitors.
Apple has reviewed scientific reports and sought the counsel of government
regulatory agencies and respected health organizations. Based on the
prevailing evidence and opinions, Apple believes that the electric and
magnetic fields produced by computer monitors do not pose a health risk.
In response to those customers who wish to reduce their exposure to
electromagnetic fields, Apple has lowered the emission levels of our products.
We are also actively encouraging further scientific research so we can
continue to promote the health and safety of our customers and employees.
Health, Safety, and Maintenance Tips 133Safety instructions
For your own safety and that of your equipment, always take the following
precautions.
Turn off the computer completely and disconnect the power plug (by pulling
the plug, not the cord) if any of the following conditions exists:
m the power cord or plug becomes frayed or otherwise damaged
m you spill something into the case
m your Macintosh is exposed to rain or any other excess moisture
m your Macintosh has been dropped or the case has been otherwise damaged
m you suspect that your Macintosh needs service or repair
m you want to clean the case (use only the recommended procedure
described later in this chapter)
Be sure that you always do the following:
m Keep your Macintosh away from sources of liquids, such as wash basins,
bathtubs, shower stalls, and so on.
m Protect your Macintosh from dampness or wet weather, such as rain, snow,
and so on.
m Read all the installation instructions carefully before you plug your
Macintosh into a wall socket.
m Keep these instructions handy for reference by you and others.
m Follow all instructions and warnings dealing with your system.
WARNING Electrical equipment may be hazardous if misused. Operation
of this product, or similar products, must always be supervised by an
adult. Do not allow children access to the interior of any electrical
product and do not permit them to handle any cables.
134 Appendix AHandling your computer equipment
Follow these guidelines for handling your computer and its components:
m When setting up your computer, place components on a sturdy, flat surface,
and carefully follow all setup instructions.
m When connecting or disconnecting a cable, always hold the cable by its
connector (the plug, not the cord).
m Turn off your computer and all its components before connecting or
disconnecting any cables to add or remove any component. Failure to do so
could seriously damage your equipment.
m Never force a connector into a port. If the connector and port do not join
with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Make sure that the
connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector
correctly in relation to the port.
m Take care not to spill any food or liquid on the computer, keyboard, mouse,
or other components. If you do, turn your computer off immediately and
unplug it before cleaning up the spill. Depending on what you spilled and
how much of it got into your equipment, you may have to bring your
equipment to an Apple-authorized service provider.
m Protect the computer and its components from direct sunlight and rain or
other moisture.
m Keep all ventilation openings clear and unobstructed. Without proper air
circulation, components can overheat, causing damage or unreliable
operation.
WARNING This equipment is intended to be electrically grounded. Your
Macintosh is equipped with a three-wire grounding plug—a plug that
has a third (grounding) pin. This plug will fit only a grounded AC
outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into
the outlet, contact a licensed electrician to replace the outlet with a
properly grounded outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding
plug!
Health, Safety, and Maintenance Tips 135Handling the monitor
Follow these procedures for handling a monitor:
m Turn down the screen brightness control if you leave the computer turned
on for extended periods. If the brightness is not turned down, the image on
the screen could “burn in” and damage the screen.
You can also use a “screen saver” program, which dims or varies the image
on the screen when the computer has been idle for a specified period of
time. These programs are available from independent suppliers and user
groups.
m Make sure that the ventilation openings on the computer and the monitor
are clear and unobstructed.
m Some large monitors cannot safely be placed on top of the computer.
Check the instructions that came with the monitor for setup information.
m If there is interference on the monitor’s screen or on a television or radio
near your computer, move the affected equipment farther away.
Handling the keyboard
Take care not to spill any liquid on the keyboard. If you do, turn off your
computer immediately.
m If you spill liquid that is thin and clear, unplug the keyboard, turn it upside
down to let the liquid drain out, and let it dry for 24 hours at room
temperature. If, after you take these steps, the keyboard doesn’t work, take
it to an Apple-authorized service provider for repair.
m If you spill liquid that is greasy, sweet, or sticky, unplug the keyboard and
take it to an Apple-authorized service provider for repair.

Health, Safety, and Maintenance Tips 137If you can’t eject a floppy disk
If you can’t eject a floppy disk in the usual way, try the following in order:
m Hold down the x and Shift keys and press the number 1 key on your
keyboard to eject a disk in the internal disk drive.
m Turn off the computer. If the disk isn’t ejected, then hold down the button
on your mouse or other pointing device while you turn the computer on
again.
m Locate the small hole near the disk drive’s opening, and carefully insert the
end of a large straightened paper clip into it. Push gently until the disk is
ejected. Do not use excessive force.
If nothing works, take the computer or disk drive to your Apple-authorized
service provider to have the disk removed.
Power supply
The power supply in your computer is a high-voltage component and should
not be opened for any reason, even when the computer is off. If the power
supply needs service, contact your Apple-authorized dealer or service
provider.
138 Appendix ACleaning your equipment
Follow these general rules when cleaning the outside of your computer and
its components:
m Use a damp, soft, lint-free cloth to clean the computer’s exterior. Avoid
getting moisture in any openings.
m Don’t use aerosol sprays, solvents, or abrasives.
Cleaning the computer case
To clean the case, do the following:
1 Turn off the computer completely and then disconnect the power plug. (Pull the plug,
not the cord.)
2 Wipe the surfaces lightly with a clean, soft cloth dampened with water.
Cleaning the monitor
To clean the screen, put household glass cleaner on a soft cloth and wipe the
screen. Don’t spray the cleaner directly on the screen, because the liquid
might drip into the monitor or computer.
Cleaning the mouse
The mouse contains a small ball that must roll smoothly for the mouse to
work properly. You can keep this ball free of dirt and grease by using the
mouse on a clean, lint-free surface and cleaning it occasionally.
You need a few cotton swabs and a clean, soft, lint-free cloth.
1 Turn off your computer.
Health, Safety, and Maintenance Tips 1392 Turn the mouse upside down and turn the plastic ring on the bottom counterclockwise to
disengage it.
If you have an older mouse, you may need to press the plastic ring (rather
than turn it) to disengage it.
If the mouse is locked, see the next section, “Locking and Unlocking the
Mouse,” for instructions on how to unlock it.
3 Turn the mouse right-side up with one hand and catch the ring and the ball with your
other hand.
4 Clean the three small rollers inside the mouse with a cotton swab moistened with water.
Rotate the rollers to clean all around them.
5 Wipe the mouse ball with a clean, soft, dry, and lint-free cloth.
6 If necessary, wash the mouse ball with warm soapy water (use a mild soap such as a
dishwashing liquid) and then dry the mouse ball thoroughly.
7 Gently blow into the mouse case to remove any dust that has collected there.
140 Appendix A8 Put the ball and the ring back in place.
Your mouse should roll smoothly across your mouse pad or desk. If it doesn’t,
repeat these instructions carefully.
Locking and unlocking the mouse
If you have a newer mouse, you can lock it so the ball can’t be removed. A
locking mouse has a small hole on the plastic ring.
To lock the mouse, follow these steps:
1 Insert a straightened paper clip into the hole on the plastic ring.
2 Press down on the paper clip while you turn the ring clockwise.
Turn the ring a very short distance, until it stops. When the recessed area on
the ring is not lined up with the recessed area surrounding the ring, the mouse
is locked.

142 Appendix AExpansion cards are printed circuit boards that can be installed in your
computer to give it special capabilities, such as enhanced video capabilities,
networking and communications, and additional processing power.
You can install an expansion card by following the instructions that came
with the card, or by following the instructions in this appendix. However, be
sure to read this appendix for instructions that may be specific to your
computer.
If your computer comes with a Single Inline Memory Module (SIMM)
installed on the DOS-compatibility card, you can remove it or replace it with
a SIMM that has a higher memory capacity.
143
Appendix B Installing an Expansion Card
or Memory for the PC Environment
Read this appendix for instructions
on installing an expansion card
in your computer or memory
for the PC environment. If your computer does not already have a SIMM installed on the
DOS-compatibility card, you can add a SIMM that provides up to 32 MB
(megabytes) of RAM for the exclusive use of your PC. The SIMM that your
card uses is the same type of SIMM that your computer uses. Follow the
instructions in this appendix to install a SIMM.
Cards fit into slots on the computer’s logic board—the board that holds the
components that make your computer work. There are three types of slots on
your computer’s logic board, each labeled on the board:
m a communication slot for an internal modem or an Ethernet card
m a video-in slot for a card that brings signals into the computer from a
videocassette recorder (VCR), laserdisc player, video camera, or similar
equipment
WARNING To avoid damage to your computer, Apple recommends that
only an Apple-certified technician install additional RAM. Consult the
service and support information that came with your Apple product for
instructions on how to contact an Apple-authorized service provider or
Apple for service. If you attempt to install additional RAM yourself, any
damage you may cause to your equipment will not be covered by the
limited warranty on your computer. See an Apple-authorized dealer or
service provider for additional information about this or any other
warranty question.
144 Appendix Bm an LC-compatible 68030 processor-direct slot (PDS). The
DOS-compatibility card is already installed in this slot; you cannot add
another card to it.
Note: The process you use to install a TV tuner card is different from the one
described in this appendix. See the documentation that came with that card
for instructions.
Installing an expansion card or SIMM involves three steps:
m opening the computer
m inserting the card or SIMM into a particular slot
m closing the computer
WARNING To avoid damaging your computer and expansion card, do
not attempt to install any expansion card without first checking the
documentation for that card. If the documentation specifies that an
Apple-certified technician must install the card (usually because
the installation requires special training or tools), consult the service
and support information that came with your computer for instructions
on how to contact an Apple-authorized service provider or Apple for
assistance. If you attempt to install the card yourself, any damage you
may cause to the computer or card will not be covered by the limited
warranty on your computer. If the card is not an Apple-labeled product,
check with an Apple-authorized dealer or service provider to see if you
can install it yourself.

156 Appendix B157
Your computer keyboard contains certain special keys that typewriter
keyboards don’t have. Many of these keys allow you to give commands to
the computer without using the mouse. For example, in many application
programs, pressing the x (Command) key at the same time as the Q key is
often an alternative method of quitting a program.
The following table describes what you can do with the special keys on your
keyboard. The number of special keys on your keyboard may vary from this
list; it depends on the model of keyboard you have.
For information on how keys on Apple keyboards correspond to the keys
on a PC keyboard, see “Keyboard” in the section “Working in the PC
Environment” in Chapter 5.
Special keys on Apple keyboards
Arrow keys Use to move the insertion point, as an alternative to using the
pointer. In some programs, the arrow keys have other functions.

158 Appendix CYou use Macintosh Easy Open software to open a document when you don’t have the
application that created it.
When you choose Open from an application’s File menu with Macintosh Easy
Open installed, you may see more documents than you did before. You’ll also
see additional information when you use a list view of the files in a folder
(including DOS, Windows, and ProDOS documents).
Choosing an application to open a document
Without Macintosh Easy Open, you see this message when you try to open a
document created by an application missing from your computer.
159
Appendix D
Using Macintosh Easy Open
Follow the instructions in this
chapter if you have problems
opening some documents.With Macintosh Easy Open installed, you see a list of programs that can open
the document.
m Double-click any application in the dialog box to open the document.
If you don’t like the results you see when the document opens, quit the
application and try again using a different choice from the list.
If Macintosh Easy Open can’t find any application to open your document,
you see this dialog box:
Note: Macintosh Easy Open lists only the programs that will produce the
best results. To see applications that may produce less than optimum results,
deselect “Show only recommended choices.”
160 Appendix DUsing the Macintosh Easy Open control panel
You use the Macintosh Easy Open control panel to set preferences when
you’ve installed additional translators available from your software retailer.
Such translators give you more choices for opening documents.
On/Off
If you turn off Macintosh Easy Open, it won’t try to find applications to open
your documents. You’ll still see extra information in list views.
Always Show Choices
When you use additional translators purchased from your software retailer,
you can set preferences that determine which application opens a document.
If you turn on Always Show Choices, Macintosh Easy Open presents the full
list of applications and translators to open your documents, even if you have
indicated a preference.
Include Choices from Servers
Turn off this option if you want Macintosh Easy Open to search for programs
only on hard disks directly connected to your Macintosh, ignoring programs
on shared disks. (Using applications over the network is slower than using
them on a hard disk.)
Delete Preferences
Click this button to erase the record of choices you’ve made for specific
translator preferences (useful only if you’ve previously installed translators
purchased from your software retailer). You may want to erase your
preferences when you install new translation software in order to have
Macintosh Easy Open prompt you for new choices.
Using Macintosh Easy Open 161In this chapter
The DOS-compatibility card inside your computer supports network drivers
that conform to Novell's Open Data-Link Interface (ODI). This appendix
contains instructions for installing such network management software. It
covers
m installing NetWare client software
m installing Novell’s LAN Workplace for DOS TCP/IP software
m installing NetManage’s Chameleon TCP/IP software
m installing Windows for Workgroups
m installing Spry’s Air Series TCP/IP software
m installing Mosaic
Installing NetWare client software
The instructions below will guide you through installation of client software
for Novell NetWare versions 3.12, 4.01, and 4.02. PersonalNetWare is not
supported at this time. You must have Windows installed before installing the
NetWare client software. If you need to reinstall Windows, see “Reinstalling
PC Software” in the section “Reinstalling the DOS-Compatibility Software”
in Chapter 8.
163
Appendix E
Installing Network Management SoftwareBefore you start, be sure you have the appropriate floppy disks for the version
of NetWare you wish to install.
In addition, you need to know the Ethernet frame type in use on your
network segment. You must choose the appropriate frame type in Step 11
below. If you are not certain which one to select, ask your network
administrator before you begin the installation.
1 Insert the Novell NetWare Client for DOS WSDOS_1 disk into the disk drive.
2 At the DOS prompt, type the following:
A:
INSTALL
3 The NetWare Client Install screen appears.
Follow the instructions, pressing Return for each selection.
4 Define the directory for NetWare.
The default is C:\NWCLIENT. Press Return once to confirm the entry and
press it again to execute this step.
5 Edit the CONFIG.SYS file.
Change your LASTDRIVE statement so that it reads LASTDRIVE=Z.
6 Add the following line to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
CALL C:\NWCLIENT\STARTNET.BAT
Press Y-Return.
7 Decide whether you wish to load the Windows support in the directory where you have
loaded Windows.
Press Y or N. If yes, press Return once to confirm the Windows subdirectory
entry and again to execute this step.
8 Select the driver for the network board. Press Return.
9 A message asks you to insert another disk. Follow the instructions on the screen.
10 In the dialog box, select Power Macintosh 6100 Ethernet Adapter and press Return.
164 Appendix E11 In the dialog box for selecting a frame type, press Return.
12 Use the arrow keys to choose the appropriate frame type for the Novell server you will be

14 Press Return to copy the MACODI.COM driver to the NetWare subdirectory.
15 Following the instructions on the screen, insert the NetWare Client for DOS WSDOS_1
disk again.
16 If you wish to add files and a NetWare group to the Windows directory, insert the
NetWare Client for MS Windows WSWIN_1 disk and follow the instructions on the
screen.
When installation is complete, a dialog box appears asking you to reboot
(restart) the computer.
17 Eject the disk by pressing x-E.
18 Press Control-Alt-Delete.
You now have additional network drives and mappings available. Your first
network drive letter is Novell’s default of F, unless this drive is already in use
on your machine, or if your network is set up to use a different starting drive.
19 To log into the network, type:
F:
LOGIN
PASSWORD:
Installing Network Management Software 165Conserving memory
During NetWare client installation you add the line
CALL C:\NWCLIENT\STARTNET.BAT
to the beginning of the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. This command then loads four
programs into DOS memory—LSL.COM, MACODI.COM, IPXODI.COM,
and VLM.EXE (in this order). To conserve memory in the lower DOS region,
you may wish to edit the STARTNET.BAT file (installed with your NetWare
software) to load those four programs with the LOADHIGH (LH) command.
See your DOS documentation for details on manually optimizing DOS
memory. (Be aware that the Microsoft utility MEMMAKER does not work
with the DOS-compatible Macintosh.)
Mapping drive letters
When you map a network resource as a drive letter, the Macintosh PC Setup
control panel recognizes that those drive letters are unavailable for use as
shared folders. However, when the network no longer uses the drive letter, PC
Setup will still show them as unavailable for sharing folders until you restart
the PC.
In addition, if a drive letter is being shared before you start up the PC and
Novell needs to use that drive letter, then the Novell network drive will take
precedence over that shared drive letter.
For further information, see your Novell installation and administration
manuals, or contact your network adminstrator.
166 Appendix EInstalling Novell’s LAN Workplace for DOS TCP/IP software
IMPORTANT You must not have MacTCP installed when you run DOS TCP/IP
software; the two will conflict with one another.
You can use the IPX and TCP protocols at the same time in either the PC
environment or the Mac OS, or you can use one protocol in the PC
environment and the other protocol in the Mac OS. However, you cannot use
the same protocol in both environments at the same time.
If you want to use the IPX protocol in the PC environment and you have
previously installed MacIPX in the Mac OS, remove MacIPX from the
Control Panels folder or select AppleTalk as your network interface in the
MacIPX control panel.
If you want to use the TCP protocol in the PC environment and you have
previously installed MacTCP in the Mac OS, remove MacTCP from the
Control Panels folder or select an interface other than Ethernet in the
MacTCP control panel.
You must have Windows installed before installing the LAN Workplace
for DOS software. If you need to reinstall Windows, see “Reinstalling PC
Software” in the section “Reinstalling the DOS-Compatibility Software” in
Chapter 8.
In addition, you need to know the following information before you start:
m A legitimate, assigned IP address for the machine on which you’re
installing the TCP/IP software (for example, 222.111.11.1). For connecting to
the Internet, your service provider will tell you the correct address. For
TCP/IP networking within your company, your network administrator can
provide you with an address.
If you have either a BOOTP or an RARP server to dynamically assign IP
addresses, you don’t need to know the IP address before beginning the
installation.
Installing Network Management Software 167m If you are on a network with a subnet mask, you need the IP address for
that mask, for example:
255.0.0.0 for client Class A IP addresses
(those between 0.0.0.1 to 127.255.255.254]
255.255.0.0 for client Class B IP addresses
(those between 128.0.0.1 and 191.255.255.254]
255.255.255.0 for client Class C IP addresses
(those between 192.0.0.1 and 223.255.255.254]
m If you will connect to a TCP/IP host through a router, you need to know
the IP address for that router.
m The name of your domain name server (for example, server.edu).
m The IP address of your domain name server.
Once you have this information, you can proceed with the installation by
following Novell’s instructions and answering the on-screen prompts.
168 Appendix EInstalling NetManage’s Chameleon TCP/IP software
IMPORTANT You must not have MacTCP installed when you run DOS TCP/IP
software; the two will conflict with one another.
You can use the IPX and TCP protocols at the same time in either the PC
environment or the Mac OS, or you can use one protocol in the PC
environment and the other protocol in the Mac OS. However, you cannot use
the same protocol in both environments at the same time.
If you want to use the IPX protocol in the PC environment and you have
previously installed MacIPX in the Mac OS, remove MacIPX from the
Control Panels folder or select AppleTalk as your network interface in the
MacIPX control panel.
If you want to use the TCP protocol in the PC environment and you have
previously installed MacTCP in the Mac OS, remove MacTCP from the
Control Panels folder or select an interface other than Ethernet in the
MacTCP control panel.
You must have Windows installed before installing the Chameleon TCP/IP
software. If you need to reinstall Windows, see “Reinstalling PC Software” in
the section “Reinstalling the DOS-Compatibility Software” in Chapter 8.
In addition, you need to know the following information before you start:
m A legitimate, assigned IP address for the machine on which you’re
installing the TCP/IP software (for example, 222.111.11.1). For connecting to
the Internet, your service provider will tell you the correct address. For
TCP/IP networking within your company, your network administrator can
provide you with an address.
m The name of your domain name server (for example, server.edu).
m The IP address of your domain name server (for example, 111.222.0.0).
m The IP address of your Internet gateway, if any.
Once you have this information, you can proceed.

You can test the installation by using Ping. For example, with Portal:
1 Connect using Alt-C.
2 Ping the name news.ip.portal.com.
You should get a response back within a few seconds.
172 Appendix EInstalling Windows for Workgroups
To support networking with your DOS-compatibility hardware, you need to
install software that supports ODI (Open Data-Link Interface) drivers. Follow
these steps:
1 Install Windows for Workgroups 3.1.1, electing to not install the networking software.
2 Follow the instructions in “Installing NetWare Client Software,” earlier in this appendix.
3 Follow the instructions in “Installing NetManage’s Chameleon TCP/IP Software,” earlier
in this appendix.
Installing Spry’s Air Series TCP/IP Software
IMPORTANT You must not have MacTCP installed when you run DOS TCP/IP
software; the two will conflict with one another.
You can use the IPX and TCP protocols at the same time in either the PC
environment or the Mac OS, or you can use one protocol in the PC
environment and the other protocol in the Mac OS. However, you cannot use
the same protocol in both environments at the same time.
If you want to use the IPX protocol in the PC environment and you have
previously installed MacIPX in the Mac OS, remove MacIPX from the
Control Panels folder or select AppleTalk as your network interface in the
MacIPX control panel.
If you want to use the TCP protocol in the PC environment and you have
previously installed MacTCP in the Mac OS, remove MacTCP from the
Control Panels folder or select an interface other than Ethernet in the
MacTCP control panel.
You must have Windows installed before installing Spry’s Air Series TCP/IP
software. If you need to reinstall Windows, see “Reinstalling PC Software” in
the section “Reinstalling the DOS-Compatibility Software” in Chapter 8.
Installing Network Management Software 173If your PC is using a VGA driver, and your Air Series software is version 3.0,
you need to make the following change. (These instructions assume that you
have Windows installed in the C:\WINDOWS directory. If Windows is
elsewhere, type the actual Windows location.)
1 Make sure the Air Series Setup disk is not read-only.
2 Place the disk in drive A.
3 Type the following at the DOS prompt:
A:
COPY SETUP.BMP SETUP.OLD
COPY C:\WINDOWS\RIVETS.BMP A:SETUP.BMP
In addition, you will need to know the following information before you
start:
m Your Internet e-mail address.
m A legitimate, assigned IP address for the machine on which you're
installing the TCP/IP software (for example, 222.111.11.1). For connecting to
the Internet, your service provider will tell you the correct address. For
TCP/IP networking within your company, your network administrator can
provide you with an address.
m If you are on a network with a subnet mask, the IP address for that mask,
for example:
255.0.0.0 for client Class A IP addresses
(those between 0.0.0.1 to 127.255.255.254),
255.255.0.0 for client Class B IP addresses
(those between 128.0.0.1 and 191.255.255.254), and
255.255.255.0 for client Class C IP addresses
(those between 192.0.0.1 and 223.255.255.254).
m If you will connect through a gateway, the IP address for that device.
m The name of your domain name server (for example, server.edu).
Once you have this information, you can proceed.
174 Appendix ETo install Air Series from Windows:
1 In the Program Manager, open the File menu and choose Run.
2 Type A:\SETUP.
Follow the instructions you see on the screen.
3 When the installation asks you to select the Ethernet card manufacturer and type,
choose anything.
Note the name of the adapter you select (for example, 3Com is 3C5x9). The
Apple driver is not on the list, so you will need to edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT
file after completing the installation.
4 When the installation asks if you want to update the AUTOEXEC.BAT file, select YES.
5 Once the installation is complete, exit Windows.
6 Edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT file as follows. (You can use any convenient text editor, such as
EDIT in the DOS directory.)
m Comment out the line
CALL C:\NWCLIENT\STARTNET.BAT
m Change the line
C:\AIR\BIN\
to
C:\AIR\BIN\MACODI
m If you are are on a NetWare local area network and using the Novell VLM
redirector, add the line
C:\NWCLIENT\VLM
after the line
C:\AIR\BIN\TCPIP
m If you are using NETx, add the line
C:\NWCLIENT\VLM
before the line
C:\AIR\BIN\TCPIP
Installing Network Management Software 1757 Restart the PC.
8 Log into the network and start Windows.
You should now see the Air Series group window.
Testing the installation
To test the installation:
1 Double-click the Air Telnet icon to open it.
An Open Telnet Session dialog box appears.
2 Double-click the name of your domain name server.
You see a VT100 window with a login prompt.
176 Appendix EInstalling Mosaic
IMPORTANT You must not have MacTCP installed when you run DOS TCP/IP
software; the two will conflict with one another.
You can use the IPX and TCP protocols at the same time in either the PC
environment or the Mac OS, or you can use one protocol in the PC
environment and the other protocol in the Mac OS. However, you cannot use
the same protocol in both environments at the same time.
If you want to use the IPX protocol in the PC environment and you have
previously installed MacIPX in the Mac OS, remove MacIPX from the
Control Panels folder or select AppleTalk as your network interface in the
MacIPX control panel.
If you want to use the TCP protocol in the PC environment and you have
previously installed MacTCP in the Mac OS, remove MacTCP from the
Control Panels folder or select an interface other than Ethernet in the
MacTCP control panel.
You must have Windows installed before installing the Mosaic software. If
you need to reinstall Windows, see “Reinstalling PC Software” in the section
“Reinstalling the DOS-Compatibility Software” in Chapter 8.
In addition, you must have already installed
m A TCP/IP software package.
m Win32s, which allows Windows to run 32-bit applications. Win32s is
freeware and can be found on a number of on-line services.
To install Mosaic:
1 In the Program Manager, choose Run from the File menu.
2 Type C:\WIN32\DISK1\SETUP.
3 Answer all the dialog boxes to complete the installation.
4 After Win32s is installed, a Group window labeled Win32 Applications appears.
5 Press Alt-F-New to create an icon for Mosaic.
6 In the New Program Object dialog box, select Program Item.
Installing Network Management Software 1777 Fill in the Program Item Properties dialog box as follows:
Description: Mosaic
Command Line: C:\MOSAIC\MOSAIC.EXE
Working Directory: C:\MOSAIC
8 Click OK.
A Mosaic icon appears in the Win32 Applications Group window.
9 Copy the C:\MOSAIC\MOSAIC.INI directory to the C:\WINDOWS\ directory.
You are now ready to use Mosaic.

Radio and television interference
The equipment described in this manual generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency
energy. If it is not installed and used properly—that is, in strict accordance with Apple’s
instructions—it may cause interference with radio and television reception.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device
in accordance with the specifications in Part 15 of FCC rules. These specifications are designed
to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
You can determine whether your computer system is causing interference by turning it off. If
the interference stops, it was probably caused by the computer or one of the peripheral devices.
If your computer system does cause interference to radio or television reception, try to correct
the interference by using one or more of the following measures:
m Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
m Move the computer to one side or the other of the television or radio.
m Move the computer farther away from the television or radio.
m Plug the computer into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio.
(That is, make certain the computer and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by
different circuit breakers or fuses.)
If necessary, consult an Apple-authorized service provider or Apple. See the service and support
information that came with your Apple product. Or, consult an experienced radio/television
technician for additional suggestions. You may find the following booklet helpful: Interference
Handbook (stock number 004-000-00493-1). This booklet, prepared by the Federal
Communications Commission, is available from the U.S. Government Printing Office,
Washington, DC 20402.
IMPORTANT Changes or modifications to this product not authorized by Apple Computer, Inc.,
could void the FCC Certification and negate your authority to operate the product.
This product was tested for FCC compliance under conditions that included the use of Apple
peripheral devices and Apple shielded cables and connectors between system components. It is
important that you use Apple peripheral devices and shielded cables and connectors between
system components to reduce the possibility of causing interference to radios, television sets,
and other electronic devices. You can obtain Apple peripheral devices and the proper shielded
cables and connectors through an Apple-authorized dealer. For non-Apple peripheral devices,
contact the manufacturer or dealer for assistance.
vi Communications Regulation InformationFCC statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device
in accordance with the specifications in Part 15 of FCC rules. See instructions if interference to
radio or television reception is suspected.
DOC statement
DOC Class B Compliance This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio
noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard

Getting Started With the QuickTake 100 Camera 3Charging the batteries
The three NiCad batteries you received with the QuickTake 100 must be
charged before you can use them. Use the battery charger that came with the
camera.
1 Insert the batteries into the charger.
2 Plug the battery charger into an electrical outlet.
It takes five hours to fully charge three NiCad batteries. (Be sure to fully
charge the batteries the first time you use them.) If you want to take pictures
right away, you can use three AA non-rechargeable batteries (not included) in
the camera. For information about battery care, see Appendix B.
3 Unplug the battery charger, remove the batteries, and install them in the camera.
See instructions for installing batteries on the next page.
WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, charge only rechargeable nickelcadmium batteries in the battery charger that came with the QuickTake
100 camera. Charging other types of batteries may cause them to leak or
explode, resulting in personal injury and property damage.
Make sure you position the + and –
ends of each battery as indicated on
the battery charger.
When batteries are charging, this
red light glows.
4 Chapter 1Installing the batteries
Use the three NiCad batteries that came with your camera. If the NiCad
batteries are being charged, you can substitute three AA non-rechargeable
batteries in the camera.
1 Flip open the door to the battery compartment.
2 Insert the batteries into the camera.
3 Close the battery compartment door.
See also: Appendix B, “Battery Information.”
Position the – and + ends of each
battery as indicated on the door.
Arrange the ribbon under the batteries so you can use
it to pull them out when you need to replace them.
WARNING Do not mix different types of batteries in the camera. Use
only three NiCad batteries or three AA non-rechargeable batteries.
Mixing batteries may cause a fire or a small explosion.
Getting Started With the QuickTake 100 Camera 5Installing the QuickTake software
Before you can transfer images from your camera to your Macintosh
computer, you need to install the necessary software on your Macintosh.
You’ll need the QuickTake disks that came with your camera. The disks
contain
m the Installer, a program that installs everything you need
m QuickTake 1.0, a program that transfers pictures from the camera to your
Macintosh
m other files needed by the QuickTake 100 camera
IMPORTANT If you have system software version 7.0.1• on your Macintosh, you
must turn on AppleTalk before you install QuickTake software. Open the
Chooser and make sure that AppleTalk is active.
1 Insert the appropriate installation disk into a floppy disk drive.
The choice depends on whether you have a Power Macintosh or not.
m If you have a Power Macintosh, insert QuickTake for Power Macintosh.
m Otherwise, insert QuickTake Install Disk 1.
If necessary, open the disk icon.
2 Double-click the Installer icon to open it.
3 In the Welcome dialog box that appears, click OK.
6 Chapter 1
Use the Installer to install
the QuickTake software.

picture (in a few seconds), a green light glows in the viewfinder. The pictures
can remain in the camera’s memory up to one year (or until you erase them).
Focal range and flash range
Try to keep a distance of at least four feet between you and the object you
want to photograph. The camera can focus on objects as close as four feet and
as far away as infinity. Objects closer than four feet may be out of focus, but
objects in the range between four feet and infinity will be properly focused.
The flash can illuminate objects as close as four feet and as far away as nine
feet.

30 Chapter 3Saving a picture
If you want to preserve changes you make, you have to save the modified
picture. The Save and Save As commands in the QuickTake software behave
like the same commands in other Macintosh application programs. In
addition, the QuickTake software provides features that allow you to choose a
specific file format (such as PICT or TIFF), bit depth, and file compression.
1 To save the picture in the active image window, choose Save As from the File menu.
2 In the box that appears, type a name for the picture.
Using the Camera With Your Macintosh 31
Type a name for
the picture here.3 Choose the file format you want from the pop-up menu.
The file format you choose depends on the requirements of the application
into which you plan to import the picture.
m PICT is the basic Macintosh file format for images and is used by almost all
Macintosh programs that read image files.
The PICT QuickTake format is created (and compressed) by the camera.
To open images in this format on a Macintosh, you need the QuickTake
Image and QuickTime extensions. To open images saved in the compressed
PICT formats, you need only the QuickTime extension. To open images
saved in PICT with no compression, use any application that reads PICT.
m TIFF stands for Tagged Image File Format. TIFF is another commonly used
file format for storing bitmapped images in various resolutions.
4 Choose the image depth you want from the pop-up menu.
The image depth you choose depends on the printer to which you plan to
send the picture or the monitor on which you plan to display it.
5 Click the Save button (or press Return).
32 Chapter 3
These three formats use JPEG
compression for a smaller file size,
but with some loss of image quality.

Caring for your camera
These suggestions should help you maintain the QuickTake 100 camera:
m Protect the camera from moisture and excessive heat.
m Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaners on the camera. Wipe off dust with a
clean, dry cloth.
m When you are not taking pictures, close the lens cover to protect the lens
and keep it clean (and to extend battery life).
51
5 Maintenance and Troubleshootingm To clean the lens, first blow away any surface dust or dirt. Breathe on the
lens to form a mist, then gently wipe away the mist with a soft, lint-free
cloth or lens cleaning tissue. Don’t press hard, or you may scratch the lens.
Never wipe a dry lens.
m If you store the camera for an extended period, remove the batteries. When
you replace the batteries, remember to reset the date and time. (For
instructions, see “Setting the Clock in the Camera” in Chapter 3.)
Solving problems
This section describes some problems you might encounter, and offers
solutions you can try.
IMPORTANT If you have a problem with your camera and nothing
recommended here solves it, contact your authorized service provider.
Camera won’t take pictures
m The camera may not be turned on. Make sure the lens cover is open.
m The camera may be asleep. Press the shutter release or close and then open
the lens cover.
m If you just took a flash picture, the flash may be recharging. Look for the
green light in the viewfinder. When it comes on, the camera is ready to
take another picture.
m The batteries may be low or dead. Replace the batteries or connect the AC
power adapter to the camera.
m The batteries may not be installed correctly. (See “Installing the Batteries”
in Chapter 1.)
WARNING Don’t use solvents or solutions unless they are specifically
designed for cleaning camera lenses. Don’t use chemically treated tissues
intended for eyeglasses.
52 Chapter 5m The camera’s memory may have no room for another picture. Transfer the
pictures from the camera to your Macintosh, then erase the pictures. (See
“Erasing Pictures From the Camera” in Chapter 3.)
m The camera may be connected to your Macintosh. You can use the camera
controls on the Macintosh to take pictures (see “Taking Pictures From the
Macintosh” in Chapter 3), or disconnect the serial cable from the camera.
Can’t see anything through the viewfinder
m Make sure the lens cover is open.
m Move the camera around slightly as you look through it. You need to look
straight through the viewfinder.
Flash fails to go off
m Make sure the flash is turned on. (See “Flash Settings” in Chapter 2.)
m The batteries may be low or dead. Replace the batteries.
m The batteries may not be installed correctly. (See “Installing the Batteries”
in Chapter 1.)
The Macintosh doesn’t recognize the camera
Different devices and programs may compete with the camera for the use of a
serial port on your Macintosh. If there’s a problem, a message tells you that
the camera is not responding. Make sure the serial cable is connected
properly, the camera is turned on, and the batteries have enough power.
If you have system software version 7.0.1•, try the following to resolve the
problem:
m Turn on AppleTalk in the Chooser. AppleTalk must be turned on to use the
QuickTake software with system software version 7.0.1•.
m Determine whether you have a LocalTalk device connected to the printer
port. If you do, connect the camera to the modem port.
m If you have a non-LocalTalk device, or no device at all, connected to the
printer port, open the Network control panel and change the setting from
LocalTalk to Remote Only. (If you use an EtherTalk network, leave the
setting on EtherTalk.) Then connect the camera to either port.
Maintenance and Troubleshooting 53Pictures are fuzzy, blurry, or blotchy
m The lens may be dirty. Clean the lens. (See “Caring for Your Camera,”
earlier in this chapter.)
m The subject or the camera may have moved. Hold the camera steady, and
use the flash. (See “Taking Pictures” and “Flash Settings” in Chapter 2.)
m The subject may be out of focal range. Keep a distance of at least four feet
between you and the subject. The flash illuminates subjects between four
and nine feet from the camera.
m The resolution setting may not be appropriate for the subject. Change to
high resolution. (See “Resolution Settings” in Chapter 2.)
Pictures are too dark (underexposed)
m There may not be enough light to take a picture. Turn on the flash. (See
“Flash Settings” in Chapter 2.)
m The subject may be too far away for the flash to have an effect. Make sure
the subject is no more than nine feet away. (See “Focal Range and Flash
Range” in Chapter 2.)
Pictures are too light (overexposed)
m If the camera is set to use flash with every picture, that may be too much
light. Change to automatic flash. (See “Flash Settings” in Chapter 2.)
m The subject may be too close. Make sure the subject is at least four feet
away. (See “Focal Range and Flash Range” in Chapter 2.)
m The camera may be pointed directly at a bright light. Try a different angle.
m The light sensors (above and below the viewfinder lens) may be dirty. Use
a soft, dry cloth to clean them. (To locate the light sensors, see “Your
Camera at a Glance” in Chapter 1.)
m One or both of the light sensors may be covered inadvertently. Be careful
not to obstruct the light sensors while you take pictures.
Part of a picture is missing
m Some part of the lens may be covered. Keep your hands, the neck strap,
and other objects away from the lens and the built-in flash.

56 Appendix AThe QuickTake camera comes with three AA rechargeable NiCad (nickelcadmium) batteries and a battery charger. In place of the NiCad batteries, the
camera can use other AA batteries. This appendix contains important
information about the battery charger and the batteries you can use in the
QuickTake camera.
Important safety instructions for using the battery charger
m Save this manual. It contains important safety and operating instructions.
m Before using the battery charger, read all instructions and cautionary
markings on the charger, the batteries, and the QuickTake camera.
m The battery charger is designed for indoor use only. Do not expose the
charger to rain or snow.
m Charge only NiCad rechargeable batteries. Charging other types of
batteries with the charger that came with the camera may cause them to
leak or explode, resulting in personal injury and property damage.
m Use of an attachment (such as a battery charger, power supply, or serial
cable) not recommended specifically for use with QuickTake 100 and sold
by Apple Computer may result in a risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury.
m Do not plug the charger into an extension cord.
57
Appendix B
Battery Informationm If the charger has been hit, dropped, or damaged in any way, do not
operate it. Take it to an authorized service provider for repair.
m Do not disassemble the charger. If it needs service or repair, take it to an
authorized service provider. Incorrect reassembly may result in fire or
electric shock.
m To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the electrical
outlet before you attempt to clean it. Turning off power to the outlet will
not reduce this risk.
Caring for batteries
Here are some general suggestions for good battery care.
m Always handle batteries carefully.
m Do not short-circuit battery terminals (that is, do not touch both terminals
with a metal object). Do not carry loose batteries in a pocket or purse
where they may mix with coins, keys, or other metal objects. Doing so may
cause an explosion or a fire.
m Do not drop, puncture, disassemble, mutilate, or incinerate the batteries.
m Recharge batteries only as described in this manual and only in ventilated
areas.
m Intense heat can shorten battery life. Do not leave batteries in hot locations
(such as the trunk of a car) for more than a day or two.
m Do not leave NiCad batteries in storage for longer than 6 months without
recharging them. Store unused batteries in a dry place at normal room
temperature.
m Dispose of used batteries according to the battery manufacturer’s
instructions.
58 Appendix BWays to improve battery performance
Here are some tips that may help you get the most from your batteries.
m When you replace used batteries, replace all the old ones with new ones.
Mixing new and used batteries weakens the performance of the new ones.
(If you are using rechargeable batteries, replace batteries that are running
low with a complete set of fully charged batteries.)
m Batteries work best when the contact surfaces are clean. If necessary, clean
these surfaces by gently rubbing with a clean pencil eraser or a cloth.
Rechargeable NiCad batteries
If you’ve used a set of rechargeable batteries for a while, and they seem not to
last as long as when they were new, discharge them completely before
recharging them. Unless the batteries are wearing out, this should improve
their lasting power.
WARNING Damaged nickel-cadmium (NiCad) batteries may leak small
amounts of potassium hydroxide. This substance can cause severe burns
to the skin and eyes. If you touch a damaged battery, immediately rinse
your hands and any other affected areas with water for at least 5
minutes. Do not use soap.
Battery Information 59You can use the QuickTake 100 camera with a computer running Windows
software, but you’ll need a special cable and the Windows version of the
QuickTake software. You can purchase the QuickTake 100 Connection Kit for
Windows with everything you need.
61
