Macintosh Performa: Where is CloseView? (4/95)


Is the CloseView control panel software preinstalled in the Control Panels folder on all Macintosh Performa computers?

If it is not, how can I install it? Is it inside another folder somewhere on a disk or on the hard drive?

Is there any difference between installing CloseView on a computer running System 7.5 and installing it on any other version of the Macintosh Performa system software?

CloseView is not installed in the Control Panels of the active System Folder on Macintosh Performa computers. It is included in the Apple Extras folder on the hard drive.

Installation of CloseView is easy from within the Finder. There is no installer, so you can just drag the CloseView icon on top of your System Folder.

If you are using At Ease, you need to launch the Finder before you can install CloseView.

Installing CloseView:
--------------------
Step 1
Open the hard drive.

Step 2
Open the folder called Apple Extras.

Step 3
Click on the CloseView icon and hold the mouse button down.

Step 4
Drag the CloseView icon on top of the System Folder and release the mouse button.

Step 5
An alert box appears telling you that CloseView will be placed in Control Panels. Click the OK button.

Step 6
Pull down the Apple Menu and open Control Panels.

Step 7
Open the CloseView control panel and make the necessary changes to turn on and configure CloseView the way you want it.

Step 8
Close the CloseView control panel.


Installation is the same for System 7.5 and other Performa computers assuming that the user is working within the Finder.
