Ready, Set Up, Go

If you don’t use Setup Assistant to transfer information when you first start up, you can

do it later using Migration Assistant. Go to the Applications folder, open Utilities, and

double-click Migration Assistant.

Step 8: Customize Your Desktop and Set Your Preferences.

You can easily make your desktop look the way you want using System Preferences.

Choose Apple (

) > System Preferences from the menu bar or click the System

Preferences icon in the Dock. System Preferences is your command center for most

settings on your Mac Pro. For more information, open Mac Help and search for “System

Preferences” or for the specific preference you want to change.

Need Help Setting Up?

If you don’t see anything on your screen or you think your Mac Pro didn’t start up

properly, check the following:

Is your Mac Pro plugged into a power source? If it’s plugged into a power strip, is the

power strip turned on?

Is the power cord securely plugged into the back of your Mac Pro?

Are the keyboard and display cables connected correctly?

Are the brightness and contrast of the display adjusted correctly? If the display has

brightness controls, adjust them. If the display has a power button, make sure the

display is turned on.

If you still don’t see anything on your screen, restart your Mac Pro. Press and hold the

power (®

) button on your Mac Pro for 5 or 6 seconds, until it turns off. Press the

power (®

) button again to restart.
