The Inside Logging In
At the Login Screen, your User Name is your Student ID Number. Your Password is also your Student ID Number until you change it. If you are unable to login, 1. check your ID Number to see that is correct, has no spaces before or after it, etc. 2. retype your password carefully. 3. if these methods fail, please see one of the Technology Coordina-tors in the Computer Lab. If you forget your password, the Technology Coordinators cannot recover it for you, they will reset it to your ID Number. You will then have to reset a unique password.
Universal Toolbar Notice the toolbar that runs across the top of your desktop screen. The APPLE gives a menu that manages the Systems on the MacBook: SLEEP, RE-START, SHUT DOWN, & LOGOUT will be the most used. When you open an APPLICATION, you’ll notice the name of that application[program] next to the Apple Icon. It indicates that the application is the active program being used. Notice its FILE, EDIT, VIEW, WINDOW, & HELP menu items. This menu will always be across the top. Menu items may vary with the specific application running.

Universal Toolbar...Continued 1. AIRPORT allows the MacBook to con- nect to wireless networks. The MacBook will always be looking for wireless signals and may recognize more than one at a time. Choose the network to which you would like to connect, wait for the AIRPORT bars to fill black. 2. VOLUME allows you to control how soft or loud the audio is on the MacBook. You may also control the VOLUME with the but-tons in the upper-right-hand corner of your keyboard. 3. BATTERY INDICATOR allows you differ-ent ways to view how much battery life is left on the MacBook. To conserve power when you are not actively working on the MacBook, gently close the lid allowing the MacBook to power down. The BATTERY INDICATOR is helpful to check throughout the day. You should try to charge your MacBook when you have time during the day: ADVISORY or LUNCH. The Dock The DOCK is a convenient place to access many of the commonly used APPLICA-TIONS used on the MacBook. To open something on the DOCK, single-click on an icon.

The Dock...Continued 1. FINDER allows you to find any files or APPLICATIONS on the MacBook by using the SPOTLIGHT search box with the magnifying glass. 2. DASHBOARD will provide WIDGETS, or live-streaming information from the Internet such as lo-cal weather, ESPN scores, & what’s for lunch at PND today. Click on the + at the bottom left of the DASHBOARD and select any WIDGET to add. To create your own WIDGET, see the section on SAFARI. 3. iMAIL is the local email client on the MacBook. Because Peoria Notre Dame is a GoogleSchool, we will advise you to use the shortcut on your DESKTOP to access your GMAIL from the Internet instead of storing email locally on your MacBook, thus saving you valuable space. However, if you would like to enable iMAIL, please see the Director of Instructional Technology, Ms. Perino, for help or follow a reliable online tutorial. 1 2 3
4. SAFARI is the Mac Internet browser. 5. iCHAT is used for text and video chat. For more on iChat, please copy and paste into your brows-er: http://www.apple.com/findouthow/mac/#ichatbasics 6. iCAL is the local calender on your MacBook. You can make the most of iCAL by subscribing to the GoogleCalenders you’ve created for your classes. Your MacBook will refresh any changes made to those GoogleCalenders when you set the sync timer. 7. PREVIEW allows you to view pictures and .pdf files. It has some basic image editing functions. 8. iTUNES allows you to download and listen to music, podcasts, and more. Feel free to load your personal iTUNES account to your MacBook. We are discouraging the use of Pandora & YouTube during school hours for listening to music because it cuts down the bandwidth for the rest of the users on the network. Practice musical responsibility by utilizing your own iTUNES playlists. For more on iTUNES, copy and paste into your browser:

The Dock...Continued Adding an APPLICATION to the DOCK If you enjoy the convenience of the Dock, you can make it even more useful by adding items to it you use regularly. Here, for example, you’ll find two ways to add one or more applications to your DOCK.
Let’s say you’re currently using KEYNOTE or Microsoft WORD and would like to keep it in the DOCK at all times. Right-click on its icon in the DOCK, and select Keep in Dock from the con-textual menu that appears.
Or try this option. Open the APPLICATIONS folder, grab STICKIES, and drag it to the DOCK. As you bring it down between the icons, the other icons will make room for it in the lineup. Next time you want to use the STICKIES, just click its icon in the DOCK.
You can use this method to add multiple applications just as easily. In that open APPLICATIONS folder, choose CALCULA-TOR and DICTIONARY, two handy utilities, and drag both into the DOCK.
Removing an APPLICATION from the DOCK If you’d like to reduce the number of applications from the DOCK, you can do so at any time. Simply grab the icon of the document, folder, or application you’d like to remove, and drag it out of the DOCK. Release the mouse button, and the item will vanish in a puff of virtual smoke.

FINDER, APPLICATIONS, & File Management 16. FINDER - As its name implies, FINDER helps you find things and stay organized. This is the place where you create folders for classes[ DOCUMENTS ], save pictures[ PICTURES ], projects[ MUSIC or MOVIES ], see devices you have hooked to your MacBook[USB drives & printers], and more. To cus-tomize your FINDER, watch the tutorial below called FINDER Basics. 17. SPOTLIGHT - allows you to search any files, folders, or APPLICATIONS on your MacBook. Most of the files on your MacBook contain metadata, which allows you to search for your files, photos, etc. by typing the name, part of the name, a key word or phrase in the file, kind of content, the author, edit history, format, size, and many more details. 18. HOME Directory - Your Student ID Number identifies your HOME Directory. From this icon you will access your other main directory folders: DESKTOP, DOCUMENTS, DOWNLOADS, MOVIES, MUSIC, PICTURES, etc. 19. APPLICATIONS - are called Programs on a PC. The APPLICATIONS folder is where you’ll find QICKTIME, STICKIES, and the Adobe and Microsoft Office suites to name a few. Feel free to drag and APPLICATION to the DOCK to create a shortcut [see Adding an APPLICATION to the DOCK ]; however, DO NOT drag an APPLICATION out of the folder onto the DESKTOP - doing so uninstalls the application.
