Setting Up Your PowerBook is designed so that you can set it up quickly and start using it right away. Step 1: Plug In the Power Adapter m Plug the AC plug of your power adapter into an outlet and the power adapter plug into the PowerBook power adapter port. AC plug Important: Be sure to snap the electrical prongs on your AC plug into their completely extended position before you plug the adapter into the outlet. AC plug Power adapter plug ¯ Power adapter port ® AC cord To extend the reach of your power adapter, you can attach the AC cord if desired. See "Using Your Power Adapter" on page 21. 10 Chapter 1 Getting Started
Step 2: Prepare to Get Connected The first time you start up your computer, a setup assistant welcomes you and takes you through the registration process. It will also help you set up your computer and Internet connection. Internet access usually requires an account with an Internet service provider (ISP). Fees may apply. Setting up your Internet connection usually requires you to supply information such as the account name your ISP gives you. If you're not ready to set up your connection yet, you can skip that process and come back to it later. See Appendix C, "Connecting to the Internet," on page 73 for information about how to set it up later. If you are ready, gather the information below for the type of connection you'll be using. You can write information from your ISP or network administrator on these pages, then enter it in Setup Assistant. To set up a telephone dial-up connection, gather the following information: • Service provider name • User or account name • Password • ISP phone number • Alternate phone number • Dialing prefix to obtain an outside line To set up a DSL, cable modem, LAN, or AirPort Extreme wireless connection: m First, choose your connection method (ask your system administrator or your ISP, if you don't know): • Manually • Using DHCP with a manual address • Using DHCP • Using BootP • PPP If you're unsure which method to use, "Using DHCP" may be a good choice, because the network supplies most of the required information for you automatically. If you selected "Manually" or "Using DHCP with a manual address," gather the following: • IP address • Subnet mask • Router address Note: If you selected "Using DHCP with a manual address," you don't need a subnet mask or router address. Chapter 1 Getting Started 11
If you selected "Using DHCP," gather the following optional information (ask your ISP if you need it): • DHCP client ID • DNS servers If you selected "PPP" (for PPPoE connections), gather the following: • Service provider • Account name • Password • PPPoE service name The information below is optional. Ask your ISP or system administrator if you need it. • DNS servers • Domain name • Proxy server Step 3: Connect Your Cables Next, connect your PowerBook to a phone line, DSL modem, cable modem, or Ethernet network. If you're connecting to a wireless AirPort Extreme 802.11b or 802.11g network, you don't need cables. To connect to a phone line: m Connect the phone cord from a wall jack to the internal modem port for a dial-up connection. W Internal modem port ® Telephone cord 12 Chapter 1 Getting Started
Make sure you connect the internal modem to an analog phone line—the kind used typically in homes. The modem will not work with a digital phone line. Warning: Do not connect a digital telephone line to the modem; the wrong type of line could damage the modem. Contact your telephone service provider if you are unsure whether you have a digital telephone line. For more information about your modem, see "Using Your Modem" on page 40. For information on other types of connections, see Appendix C, "Connecting to the Internet," on page 73. To connect to a DSL or cable modem or an Ethernet network: m Connect the cable to your DSL or cable modem as shown in the modem instructions, or connect the Ethernet cord to the Ethernet hub or outlet. Then connect the other end of the cord to the computer's Ethernet port. G Gigabit Ethernet port (10/100/1000Base-T) ® Ethernet cord Chapter 1 Getting Started 13
Step 4: Turn On Your PowerBook With your setup information gathered, you're ready to start up your computer. Setup Assistant launches automatically to help you. 1 To turn on the computer, press the Power button (®). You should hear a tone when you turn on the computer. It takes the computer a few moments to start up. Note: Press the Power button once briefly (up to one second). Holding down the Power button as your computer starts up may shut down your computer again. ® Power button ® Problems Turning the Computer On? Nothing happens when you press the Power button. • The battery may be drained. Make sure that you plugged the power adapter firmly into both the computer and a power source. The plug should light when you plug it into the computer. • If the computer still doesn't start up, see "Problems That Prevent You From Using Your Computer" on page 60. You see a picture of a disk or a folder with a blinking question mark. • This icon usually means that the computer can't find the system software on the hard disk or any disks attached to the computer. Try restarting. Hold down the Power button for 4 to 5 seconds until the computer turns off. Then press the Power button again. If the problem persists, you may need to reinstall the system software. See "Restoring Your Computer's Software" on page 63. 14 Chapter 1 Getting Started
2 Use your PowerBook trackpad to select and move items on the screen, much as you use a mouse with a desktop computer. • To move the arrow pointer on the screen, slide your finger across the trackpad. • To select, click, or double-click an item on the screen, use the trackpad button. ® Trackpad Trackpad button For tips on using the trackpad, see "Tips for Using the Trackpad" on page 22. Congratulations, you're up and running! Chapter 1 Getting Started 15
How Do I Turn My PowerBook Off? When you have finished working with your PowerBook, you can put your computer to sleep or shut it down. Putting Your PowerBook to Sleep If you will be away from your PowerBook for only a short time, put the computer to sleep. When the computer is in sleep, you can quickly wake it and bypass the startup process. To put the computer to sleep, do one of the following: • Close the display. • Choose Apple (K) > Sleep from the menu bar. • Press the Power button (®) and click Sleep in the dialog that appears. Warning: Wait a few seconds until the white sleep light on the display latch starts pulsating (indicating that the computer is in sleep and the hard disk has stopped spinning) before you move your PowerBook. Moving your computer while the hard disk is spinning can damage the hard disk, causing loss of data or the inability to start up from the hard disk. To wake the computer: • If the display is closed, open it. Your PowerBook automatically wakes from sleep when you open the display. • If the display is already open, press the Power button (®) or any key on the keyboard. 16 Chapter 1 Getting Started
Shutting Down Your PowerBook If you aren't going to use your PowerBook for a day or two, shut it down. To shut down your computer, do one of the following: • Choose Apple (K) > Shut Down from the menu bar. • Press the Power button (®) and click Shut Down in the dialog that appears. If you plan to store your PowerBook for an extended period of time, see "Storing Your PowerBook" on page 68 for information on how to prevent your battery from draining completely. Calibrating Your Battery To get the longest running time from your PowerBook battery, complete the following steps during the first week you have your PowerBook. To initially calibrate your battery, follow these steps: 1 Plug in the power adapter and fully charge your PowerBook battery until the light on the power adapter plug changes to green and the onscreen meter in the menu bar indicates that the battery is fully charged. 2 Disconnect the power adapter and operate your PowerBook solely off of the battery. When the battery gets low, you will see the first low-battery warning dialog on the screen. Continue to run the PowerBook off its battery until it goes to sleep; at that point the battery has been sufficiently drained for calibration. 3 Connect the power adapter and leave it connected until the battery is fully charged again. Important: You only have to fully discharge and then charge your battery once to calibrate it. After that, you can connect and disconnect the power adapter when the battery is at any charge level. If you purchased additional batteries, repeat the calibration procedure with the additional batteries as well. For more information about your power adapter and battery, see "Using Your Power Adapter" on page 21 and "Battery" on page 47. Chapter 1 Getting Started 17
What's Next? • Learn the important basics about your PowerBook. Check out Chapter 2, "The Basics," on page 19. • Have fun trying out your computer's applications and Internet features. Browse the Mac OS X and applications booklet that came with your computer. • If you're unfamiliar with Mac OS X, open Mac OS Help and browse the information. • Switching from another computer? Open Mac OS Help and see the New Users section. It will help you use your previous computer knowledge to get started on a Mac. What If I Have More Questions? Mac OS Help Most of the information about using your Macintosh is available right on your computer. 1 Click the Finder icon in the Dock (the bar of icons at the bottom of the screen). 2 Choose Help > Mac Help (click the Help menu in the menu bar and choose Mac Help). 3 Click the Search field, type a question, and press Return on your keyboard. Other Support • If you're having a problem that prevents you from using your computer, see Chapter 5, "Troubleshooting," on page 59. • Check out the top ten most commonly asked questions. See Appendix D, "Top Ten Questions," on page 91. • For support information, user discussion boards, and the latest Apple software downloads, go to www.apple.com/support. • If you can't find the answer to your problem in these places, see the AppleCare materials that came with your computer for information on contacting Apple. 18 Chapter 1 Getting Started
2 The Basics 2 This chapter introduces important basics about your PowerBook that you'll want to know. Getting to Know Your New PowerBook Because your PowerBook is so thin and light, you can take it with you to the office, library, class, or wherever you work or play. Whenever you stop using your PowerBook, wait a few moments to let the hard disk and any optical disc in your drive stop spinning before you transport the computer. Avoid jostling or bumping your PowerBook while discs are spinning. When using your PowerBook or when charging the battery, it is normal for the bottom of the case to get warm. For prolonged use, place your PowerBook on a flat, stable surface. The bottom of the case is raised slightly to allow airflow that keeps the unit within normal operating temperatures. As you get to know your new computer, you may hear small noises during startup and when using your hard disk and optical drives. For example, your hard disk and optical drives may whir and click as they access information or load and eject discs. After the PowerBook runs for some time, a small fan may turn on to cool it, producing a faint sound. Small noises are part of the PowerBook's normal functioning. For more safety instructions about handling and using your PowerBook in different locations, be sure to see Appendix B, "Safety, Use, and Care Information," on page 67. 19
Adjusting Your Display Once you begin working with your new PowerBook, you may need to adjust your display so that the screen is easier to see. Use the keys labeled with the ¤ icon to adjust screen brightness. ¤ Brightness controls Keyboard illumination controls ALS sensor ® ALS sensor If the F8, F9, and F10 keys are marked with illumination icons, then your computer has keyboard illumination and an ambient light-sensing (ALS) system. The ALS sensors are located under the speaker grilles and will automatically adjust the brightness of your display and keyboard illumination according to the light available in your current environment. You can also adjust the keyboard illumination using the F8, F9, and F10 keys. Important: Even when the keyboard illumination feature is on, the keyboard illuminates only in low-light situations. To turn off the automatic display brightness feature: m Choose Apple (K) > System Preferences from the menu bar. Open the Displays pane and deselect the automatic brightness checkbox. You can turn off the keyboard illumination feature in the Keyboard & Mouse pane of System Preferences or by pressing the F8 key. 20 Chapter 2 The Basics
Note: Exposé is preset to use the F9 and F10 keys, the same keys that adjust your keyboard illumination. To use Exposé to manage your desktop windows, hold down the Fn key and press F9 or F10, or open the Exposé pane in System Preferences and choose different function keys to manage windows. Changing the Size of Images on the Screen You can increase or decrease the size of images on your screen by switching from the standard resolution to a scaled resolution. Your PowerBook has a 15.2-inch TFT WXGA display with a default resolution of 1280 x 854. You can choose a resolution of 1152 x 768 or lower (called "scaled" resolutions) in the Displays pane of System Preferences. When you switch to a scaled resolution, items on the screen appear larger, making them easier to see. However, scaled resolutions may not be as sharp as the display's default resolution. To adjust the resolution on your display: m Choose Apple (K) > System Preferences from the menu bar. Open the Displays pane of System Preferences. To control your display settings using the Displays icon in the menu bar, click "Show displays in menu bar." Using Your Power Adapter Plugging in the power adapter provides AC power to the computer and recharges the computer's battery. Important: For optimal performance, use only the power adapter that came with your computer, or purchase an additional 65W Apple Portable Power Adapter. When you first connect your power adapter to your computer, a light glows green for a second to indicate power is available. An amber light indicates that the battery is being charged. A green light indicates that the battery is fully charged.

Battery When the external power adapter is not connected, your computer draws power from its battery. Depending on the applications you use and external devices connected to your PowerBook, you may find that the length of time that you can run your PowerBook off one battery charge varies. Turning off certain features such as AirPort Extreme or Bluetooth® wireless technology can help to conserve battery charge. For more information about using your battery, see "Battery-Conservation Tips" on page 49. You can determine the charge left in your battery by looking at the battery level indicator lights on the battery itself. Press the button next to the lights and the lights glow to show how much charge is left in the battery. The indicator lights remain lit for a few seconds after you press the button. You can check the charge with the battery in or out of your PowerBook. If your battery runs low while you are working, you can put your PowerBook to sleep and replace the battery with a charged one. The internal backup battery provides enough power to maintain the contents of RAM for up to three minutes while you change the battery. Note: If you have installed additional memory in your PowerBook, the backup battery may provide power for less than three minutes. Also, changing batteries several times in a short period can shorten the length of time the backup battery can maintain data if the backup battery hasn't had time to fully recharge. Important: If only one flashing light is on, very little charge is left. If no lights are visible, the battery is completely drained and the computer will not start up unless the power adapter is connected. Plug in the power adapter to let the battery recharge, or replace the drained battery with a fully charged battery (see page 48). Battery LEDs Battery Chapter 3 Using Your Computer 47
If the battery icon in the Finder menu bar is set to show the percentage of charge, you may sometimes notice that the battery does not maintain a full charge of 100% when the power adapter is attached. When the battery level eventually drops below 95 percent, it will charge all the way to 100 percent. This saves battery life as charging is not continuously cycled on and off. Removing and Replacing the Battery To remove the battery: • Shut down your PowerBook. Turn it over and locate the battery latch. Use a coin to turn the latch one quarter turn clockwise to unlock the battery, and gently remove it. Latch To replace the battery: • Place the right side of the battery into the battery compartment. Gently press the left side of the battery down until the battery latch locks into place. 48 Chapter 3 Using Your Computer
Note: Dispose of batteries according to your local environmental laws and guidelines. For more information, see "Battery Disposal Information" on page 96. Charging a Battery When the power adapter that came with your computer is connected, the battery recharges whether the computer is off, on, or in sleep. However, the battery recharges more quickly if the computer is off or in sleep. You can monitor the battery charge level using the Battery status icon in the menu bar. The battery charge level displayed is based on the amount of power left in the battery with the applications, peripheral devices, and system settings (display brightness, Energy Saver settings, and so on) you are currently using. To make more battery power available, close applications and disconnect peripheral devices not in use, and adjust your Energy Saver settings (see the next section). Battery-Conservation Tips The amount of work time your PowerBook battery can provide before you need to recharge depends on the applications and peripheral devices you're currently using and the steps you take to conserve power while you work. For the best conservation of battery power, do the following: • Disconnect bus-powered USB or FireWire devices when they are not in use. • If you have an AirPort Extreme Card installed, turn AirPort off when not in use (use the AirPort status icon in the menu bar). • Turn off your Bluetooth wireless module when not in use. • Quit open applications that you are not using. • Remove CD and DVD discs when they are not in use. • Reduce screen brightness using the brightness controls on the PowerBook keyboard. • Set the hard disk to spin down after a short time. In the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences, select the "Put the hard disk to sleep when possible" option. • Set your PowerBook to sleep after inactivity of five minutes or less. Chapter 3 Using Your Computer 49
To further save battery power, select the following options in the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences: • Set your computer to modify its processor speed based upon the required amount of processing activity. You can set your PowerBook to automatically reduce its processing speed during periods of light processing activity, thus reducing power usage. During periods of high processing activity, your computer will automatically switch to a higher processing speed. In the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences, click Show Details to see the settings. Choose Battery Power from the "Settings for" pop-up menu, click Options, and choose Automatic from the Processor Performance pop-up menu. (To set your computer to use its highest processing speed at all times, choose Highest from the Processor Performance pop-up menu.) • To conserve battery life the longest, choose Longest Battery Life from the Optimize Energy Settings pop-up menu. For More Information on Your PowerBook Battery Additional information is available in Mac OS Help. Choose Help > Mac Help from the menu bar and search for "battery." Security Slot You can purchase a security cable lock to protect your PowerBook.

5 Troubleshooting 5 If you have a problem working with your PowerBook, check here first for solutions and advice. When you experience a problem, there is usually a simple and quick solution. Be aware of the conditions that led up to the problem. Making a note of things you did before the problem occurred will help you narrow down possible causes and then find the answers you need. Things to note include: • The applications you were using when the problem occurred. Problems that occur only with a specific application may indicate that the application is not compatible with the version of the Mac OS installed on your computer. • Any software that you recently installed, especially software that added items to the System folder. (Certain applications install extensions that may not be compatible with the Classic environment.) • Any new hardware, such as additional memory or a peripheral, that you installed. You can also find more troubleshooting information in Mac OS Help, on the Apple Support website at www.apple.com/support, and in the AppleCare Knowledge Base at kbase.info.apple.com. 59
Problems That Prevent You From Using Your Computer If the computer won't respond or the pointer won't move • Press Command (x)-Option-Esc to force a frozen application to quit. If a dialog appears, select the application you would like to quit and click Force Quit. If you are working in Classic, hold down the Option and Command (x) keys and then press the Esc key. Next, save your work in any open applications and restart the computer to be sure the problem is entirely cleared up. • If you are unable to force the application to quit, press and hold the Power button (®) for a few seconds to shut down the computer. • If the computer still doesn't respond, try to restart it by simultaneously pressing the Command (x) and Control keys on your keyboard and the Power button (®).

Search for the word "freeze" to see help for instances when the computer freezes or doesn't respond. If the problem occurs only when you use a particular program, check with the program's manufacturer to see if it is compatible with your computer. If you know an application is compatible, you may need to reinstall your computer's system software or, if you're using Classic, you may need to check for incompatible system extensions. See the next topic for instructions. If the computer freezes during startup or you see a flashing question mark Try using Disk Utility to repair your hard disk. 1 Insert the first software install and restore disc into your computer. Then restart your computer and hold down the C key as it starts up. 2 Choose Installer > Open Disk Utility. When Disk Utility opens, follow the instructions in the First Aid pane to see if the utility can repair your disk. If using Disk Utility doesn't work, you may need to reinstall your computer's system software. For instructions, see page 63. If you are using the Classic environment in Mac OS X, you might have an incompatible extension. (Mac OS X does not use system extensions.) Try turning off your system extensions to see if that solves the problem. To turn off extensions in Classic, open System Preferences, click Classic, click the Advanced tab, and choose Turn Off Extensions from the pop-up menu. Click Restart Classic. If turning off extensions appears to solve the problem, you may need to identify and eliminate or reinstall the extension that is causing the problem. Open the Extensions Manager control panel and turn off the extensions you suspect are causing the problem. Then restart Classic with the extensions turned on again. 60 Chapter 5 Troubleshooting

Abelard and Heloise are nearly as famous a pair of tragic lovers as the fictional Romeo and Juliet; their shared passion for knowledge, religious faith, and one another sealed their destiny. Abelard was a well-respected, 12th-century Parisian scholar and teacher, and Heloise was his talented young student. The two relate their story through a set of letters to one another and intimate acquaintances. Their ardor is unmistakable; as Abelard writes to his love, "So intense were the fires of lust which bound me to you that I set those wretched, obscene pleasures, which we blush even to name, above God as above myself..." This forbidden lust resulted in a pregnancy and secret marriage, and when their union could no longer withstand the challenges in its path, each lover sought refuge in the church--Abelard became a monk and Heloise an abbess. Their correspondence continued as both achieved success in their new careers but continued to struggle with their feelings for one another; the set of letters powerfully articulates the wide range of emotions they experienced. So timeless is their love story that--after eight centuries--their passion, their devotion, and their struggle still resonate with readers. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
