Switching between open programs

You can have several programs open at a time, but you can only work with the frontmost or "active" program. To see the programs that are open:

• Open the Application Menu (in the upper-right corner of the screen).

• The "active" program has a checkmark next to it.

There are two ways to change the "active" program (switch between programs):

• Click in any open window of the program that you want to use.

• Choose the program that you what to use from the Application menu.

If you have programs open that you are not using, you should quit those programs by making them active and then choosing Quit from the File menu. Doing this will help you avoid getting low memory error messages.
