Before You Install Before you begin installation, register your new software and turn off virus protection. You may also need to update your system software.

Doing an Easy Installation To install the complete AppleWorks package: 1 Insert the AppleWorks CD-ROM disc into the drive. A window appears on your screen with two Installer icons. (If you see only the icon for the CD-ROM disc, double-click the icon.) 2 Double-click the appropriate Installer icon for your country. 3 Click Continue. 4 If you agree to the terms of the Software License Agreement, click Accept. 5 Click Install. 6 Follow the onscreen instructions. 7 Click Continue or Quit.
Using a Network Server These instructions are for network administrators who want to set up AppleWorks on a server for network access. You can set up AppleWorks for multiple users in either of the following ways: m Copy the appropriate Installer from the AppleWorks CD-ROM disc to a folder on the server so users can install AppleWorks on their computers from the server. This is the recommended method. m Install AppleWorks on a network server so multiple users can use one copy of the application.
Installing AppleWorks on a Network Server You can install AppleWorks on a network server so that many users with read/write access can run the same copy of the application. Most AppleWorks files can reside on the server, but personal user dictionaries and other private documents can also be saved locally on the user’s computer. AppleWorks usually runs more slowly over a network.
Installing a Personal User Dictionary on Each User’s Computer 1 Find or create a folder for the user dictionary. This can be on a local hard disk or in a private folder on the network where the user has read/write access. ( You don’t have to reserve the folder exclusively for AppleWorks files.) 2 Start AppleWorks on the user’s computer. 3 Create a new AppleWorks word-processing document, choose Writing Tools from the AppleWorks Edit menu, then choose Select Dictionaries from the submenu.
