Be careful when you use your USB devices on Macintosh machines.
Safe removal on these machines is a process of clicking eject on the
drive properties menu (*labeled "removable drive" on the
desktop). Also, make sure that you incrementally save your
information to prevent large data loss in the event of unexpected
computer failures. In all cases, do
not remove your device before saving your files and closing all related
programs when you are done!!!

| Staff Comments |
Everyone:
You should not hesitate to ask questions of us when you are unsure of
any of the concepts presented. Otherwise we assume you know what you
are doing and are fully aware of what is expected of you. Please be
mindful that we serve as resources for information, but the work you do
is a reflection of yourself, your abilities, and your work ethic.
Hard work always pays off in the end.
