Learning the basics

If you are new to the Macintosh, you should begin by looking at the easy-to-

use program called the Macintosh Tutorial. The tutorial teaches you the basic

skills you’ll need to use your computer. To start the tutorial, follow these

steps:

1Move your finger on the trackpad to move the arrow pointer (

) on the screen.

Place your index finger on the trackpad and your thumb on the trackpad

button. Don’t press the trackpad button yet.

Move your finger across the trackpad, watching the arrow on the screen.

Notice that the arrow on the screen moves in the same direction that you

move your finger on the trackpad.

The trackpad is sensitive not only to the direction you move your finger, but

also to how fast you move your finger. If you want the pointer to move a short

distance across the screen, you move your finger slowly across the trackpad.

The faster you move your finger, the farther the pointer moves on the screen.
