[QUOTE="Chamorro, post: 35682"] [b]tried searching?[/b] Can't help about new PB procedures, but I can tell you that a lot of the maintenance procedures are spelled out in other topics....try searching for posts w/ "troubleshooting" by user "trpnmonkey41" for the basics. Also search under "macjanitor"-that'll probably bring up a bunch of topics. Internet connection depends on your use. Basically the same ideas as in the Windows world (phone line>modem jack, or cable/dsl modem>router>hub>computers, or cable/dsl modem>computer, etc. etc.) To find general info about your Mac, make sure you're in the Finder and go to the Apple Menu>About This Mac. There's a button ("More Info", I think) that will bring up System Profiler, which goes into more detail about all of your hardware, software and peripherals. Software Update in in the System Preferences. You can choose how often to search for updates, etc. When it finds new software, you get a window displaying what you can install. You decide which software you need/want. [/QUOTE]
