1. Make sure Automatic Document Translation is turned on in the Macintosh Easy Open or File Exchange control panel.
2. Put the PC disk in the Macintosh disk drive.
3. Double-click the PC disk icon.
4. Double-click the icon of the document you wish to open.
5. If the document doesn't open immediately, the Mac's Easy Open or File Exchange control panel may give you a list of applications to try. Choose the same type of application (graphics, word processing, spreadsheet) as the document.
6. If this method doesn't work, open the Mac version of the PC application that created the document. (For example, if it is a Microsoft Word for Windows file, open Word on the Macintosh.) If you lack that application, try a similar one (for example, the word processor in AppleWorks). Open the File menu and choose Open, then browse your disks for the PC file. If the file you're looking for doesn't appear in the Open box, make sure that All Files is selected, if possible, in the File Type menu. If that doesn't work, try another program. |
