Where to find answers

When you have questions about using your Macintosh, there are several places you can look for answers.

Power Macintosh

User’s Manual

In this book

Use this book to help you set up your computer and learn about it, or to find solutions to problems with your equipment.

In the Guide menu

The Guide menu (marked with the h icon) is your main source of information about the Macintosh. To learn how to get different kinds of help from the Guide menu, see Chapter 2 in this book.

In other manuals

For answers to questions about other equipment or about application programs you have purchased, see the manuals that came with the equipment or programs.

In the About Apple Extras file

The Apple Extras folder on your hard disk contains a SimpleText document called About Apple Extras (often called a “Read Me” file) with important information about some of the application programs included with your computer. Read Me files can also be found inside application folders.

From Apple’s customer support hotline

If you can’t find an answer in any of the materials provided, call the customer support hotline. (The phone number for the hotline is in the service and support information that came with your computer.)

If you have problems with a particular application program, contact the manufacturer of the program. Refer to the section “Obtaining Updated Apple Software,” in Chapter 6 for information about getting updated Apple software. Refer to “Ask Apple Online Technical Support,” in the same section of Chapter 6 for information about getting answers to your computer questions using eWorld.
