Besides the icons,
you will also see a Launcher window on your desktop. The
Launcher is used for starting programs. To open a program,
all you have to do is click once on its icon in the Launcher.
If the Launcher is not available, you can do one of two
things.
To
reopen the Launcher window:
-
Go the Apple
menu in the upper left hand corner of your screen and
select Control Panels while still holding the
mouse button down.
-
Select Launcher
from the list of available Control Panels.
-
The launcher
window will open.
To
open programs without the Launcher window:
-
Double-click
on the Macintosh HD icon on the desktop.
-
Double-click
on the Applications folder.
-
Locate the
program that you would like to open with the Applications
folder.
-
Double-click
on the program icon (sometimes you will have to open
the programs folder before you can locate the program
icon).
