Apple 4400, 7300 manual Cannot open or save my files in a shared folder

mInstead of copying and pasting, use a shared folder to transfer an entire file from one environment to another. Some Macintosh and Windows programs can open files created on other platforms. For example, ClarisWorks® for Windows can open ClarisWorks files created in the Mac OS environment, and vice versa. Even if you are using two different programs, you may be able to save a file in a file format that both programs understand, such as RTF for text, and EPS or TIFF for graphics. (Check the manuals that came with your programs to see if they support common file formats.)

mIf you must use the Clipboard to transfer a lot of data or a large graphic, try transferring the data in smaller pieces or making more memory available to the application. For more information on increasing a

program’s memory, see the “Memory” topic area of Mac OS Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu.

mIf you are copying and pasting a Photo CD image, make sure you are copying an expanded version of the image.

I can’t copy graphics from a Microsoft Word 6.0 document in the Mac OS environment.

Try this method instead:

1.Select the graphic in Word 6.0 and choose Cut from the Edit menu.

2.Open the Edit menu and choose Paste Special.

3.In the Paste Special dialog box, select Picture format and click OK.

4.Select the graphic you just pasted and choose either Cut or Copy from the Edit menu.

5.Switch to the PC environment and try pasting the graphic.

I can’t copy files from the Mac OS environment to a drive container.

To copy files to a drive container, the drive container file has to be mounted on the desktop and the PC must be shut down.

I cannot open or save my files in a shared folder.

With some Windows 95 programs, you may not be able to open or save files in a shared folder. You may have to move a file out of the shared folder before you can open it, or save a file in a different location and then move it into the shared folder.
