A program won’t open.

mThe application program may already be open. Check the Application menu to see what programs are running.

mThere may not be enough memory available to open the program. Quit any programs you’re not using and try again. If that doesn’t work, try restarting the computer.

mIf the program is on a floppy disk, make sure the disk is unlocked. (You unlock a disk by sliding the tab at the corner of the disk so that it covers the hole.)

mThe program may be damaged. Reinstall the program from a known good source (such as the original program disks).

mContact the manufacturer or vendor of the program to see if the program is compatible with System 7.5.

A program suddenly quits or disappears, or a message says a program has quit.

mThere may be a temporary software problem. Restart the computer, then try opening the program again.

mThe program may have run out of memory. See the suggestions in “A Message Says There is Not Enough Memory,” later in this section.

mIf the problem occurs when you are trying to print, there may not be enough memory for printing.

mContact the manufacturer or vendor of the program to see if the program contains software errors or “bugs” and if it is compatible with the version of system software you’re using.
