1. Type your username OR your full name. The system will recognize you.
2. Type the new password you set at the end of the school year. 
3. If you didn't log in to the new system last spring, please follow these directions. Login to new server, first time.

• To change your Groupwise password, first start the program using your old password. On the GroupWise menu, choose Preferences. Click the Security button in the column on the left side. Select Password at the top of the screen. Click the Change Password button. Type in your current password, then type the new password you’d like to use in both boxes below. Click OK.
• To change your password through GroupWise WebAccess, log in as usual, then go to Options in the upper right corner of the GroupWise screen. Select the Password tab. Type in your old password, then your new password twice (once in the new password box and again just below to confirm). Click Save.

Last Spring, the technology department provided all D97 teachers with a jump drive (sometimes known as a flash or USB drive) with a 512Mb capacity. You should have copied your important files to the jump drive and from there to your new personal user folder.

After the transfer, the jump drive will become your personal storage device.  You can use it to carry files back and forth from home to school, for temporary storage of presentations you want to share with your class, or for any work-related purpose. You are responsible for keeping it safe and your files secure; if the device is lost or damaged, it will not be replaced by the district. The jump drives do come with a lifetime warranty. If it becomes damaged, please contact the company yourself for a replacement. Warranty information is provided in the jump drive package.

What if the server has been switched, but I didn't copy some or all of my files to my jump drive?

After logging in, you will notice your desktop appears very similar to the one you are used to and you should be able to continue to use your Macintosh computer as you have been doing.

1. To access your new personal user folder, click on the icon of the house, which is your home folder. You will see many of the same files located in your personal user folder.
2. Connect your jump drive to the USB port on your computer.
3. Double click on the jump drive to open the folder.
4. Drag the files you want to put into your new personal user folder from the jump drive to the documents folder. If you have created your own folders, put those folders into the documents folder. Documents not located within one of the folders you see will be visible to others. If you have movies, music or pictures saved, you can put those into the folders with the same names on the new server. The sites folder will not hold the contents of your teacher web site. Learn more
5. IMPORTANT: DO NOT move the folders pictured below from your jump drive to your new personal user folder. Copying these files will result in overwriting necessary files and you will experience problems. If you accidentally copied these files to your jump drive, please throw them away.
6. When you have copied your files, drag the icon of the jump drive to the trash and then remove the device from your machine.

Your personal user folder has a storage limit of 1GB.  This is considerably larger than the 250 GB of storage you had last year, and it should be more than enough space for you to save the work related documents you need to access on a regular basis.

You can see how much space any document or folder is taking by clicking its icon once to select it, then choosing Get Info on the File menu, or using the shortcut Apple key + i . To give you an idea about space requirements, here are some typical document sizes:

Please Note: Network storage should be considered as the place to keep documents to which you need daily access, but not necessarily all the documents you have ever created, even if you might use them again at some point.  Documents in the latter category, including larger files such as video and music, should be saved to an alternate storage device, like a flash drive or a CD.

When you launch Safari and Firefox, your start page will be the Kid, K-5 page. Users can set the start page. A better place for staff and students to start might be the D97 website or your school's home page. You can change your start page by following these steps.

Typically, text files make the translation well, but files created using AppleWorks drawing often experience problems during translation.  These files can be saved in .pdf format so they are not lost completely, but to do this you need to open them in AppleWorks which is no longer on your machine.

PDF documents are similar to snapshots and can’t be edited with the available software on our machines. 

1. Click once on an AppleWorks file to select it without opening it.
2. Drag the file to the icon of Word that appears in your dock.
   The document will open in Word with a message on the top that may say Read Only If the formatting has been retained, save it by choosing Save As.
3. In the dialog box that appears you should see your document name with a .doc at the end. This is the extension for Word. Always leave the extension in the name of the document.
4. Choose Save. Your document is now in Word format.

The program FileMaker has replaced the AppleWorks function. One or more workshops will be offered this fall for those of you who want to convert your AppleWorks databases to the new format. If you are interested in such a workshop, contact Harla Hutchinson.

If you need to access your files on the old server, you will still be able to do so for a while. Please remember not to work on the old server any more. If you are logged in to the old server, be careful not to save there.

To connect to the old server, follow these steps:

1. Log in to the computer.
2. From the File menu at the top of the screen, choose "Go, then choose "Connect to Server".
3. In the box that says Server Address, type in afp://insert_IP_address_here
