Introduction to Macs for PC Users

III. WORKING WITH WINDOWS

Macintosh windows can be controlled just like those on a PC. However, the

buttons and menus have a slightly different layout.

Closing, Minimizing, Maximizing

Open any window. Let’s click on the Trash, since we’ve already discussed it.

The window that opens is a common Mac navigation window, similar to Windows

Explorer. Some of the window’s buttons will be discussed in detail in the “Finder”

section, but let’s focus on the three buttons on the very top left.

These buttons may not show up in color until you place the

cursor over them. The buttons operate similarly to those on a

PC. “Close” will close a window, although it will not exit the

program. Even if all of the windows of a program are closed,

the application may still be running. Look at the menu bar and see if the

program’s title still appears in bold on the left side. If it is, click on the program

title and select “Quit program.” For more about program menus, see the Menu

section (p. 12).

Even if the program’s title doesn’t appear on the menu bar, look at the Dock to

make sure that it’s closed. Locate the program’s icon (if you don’t see it, you’ve

already exited the program). Right-click on the icon and examine the menu. If

the program is open, the last item on the menu will be “Quit.” Select this to

completely exit the application.

“Minimize” will minimize a window that you don’t want to close but need out of the

way. A small representation of the window will appear in the right side of the

Dock near the Trash.
