Apple 120 Series user manual Chapter

If you have questions about installing and using an application program, refer to Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu and the Read Me files for the program. (Read Me files are text files that contain additional information about application programs. They are usually found inside the program’s folder.)

IMPORTANT If your computer did not come with a CD-ROM drive and you did not get the CD-ROM disc that contains system software, be sure to make a backup copy of the programs in the Apple Extras folder. Backup copies allow you to restore your software if anything should go wrong. It is a good idea to always make backup copies of application programs and other software.

You’ll probably want to buy and install additional programs. See the manuals you receive with your programs for instructions on installing and using them.

In most cases, you’ll install an application program on your internal hard disk from a CD-ROM disc that contains the program. The illustration shows how to insert a CD-ROM disc into your computer’s CD-ROM drive, the disc lying flat with the label side up.

For instructions on how to eject CD-ROM discs, see “Ejecting a CD-ROM Disc” in Chapter 5. Some application programs come on floppy disks. See the “Disks” topic of Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu, for information on inserting and ejecting floppy disks.
