When I double click on the Word icon, it launches the program. Clicking on the
icon once displays information about the program to the right. The large program
icon in the far right column of the window can be dragged with the mouse to the
Dock, where a shortcut to the program will appear. You’ll notice the other Dock
icons scoot out of the way to make space for the new item. Now, you will be able
to launch Microsoft Word from the Dock without hunting for it every time.
Spotlight
In the upper right corner of the menu bar is a small icon with a magnifying glass.
This is Spotlight, a program that can search for programs, files, and folders
quickly. Click on the icon and a text box will appear below. Let’s search for
Microsoft Word, so type that in the box.
Our search returned a large number of hits
(600!), but notice that Spotlight has accurately
predicted which item we need in the “Top Hit”
area. Applications are listed first, and other
types of files appear below (“Documents” and
“PDF Documents” here). To launch a program
or open a file, click once on the item. If what
you need appears but Spotlight is still
searching, go ahead and click on your item;
you don’t need to wait for Spotlight to finish.
To adjust what type of results Spotlight returns
and how it displays them, click on “Spotlight
preferences…” at the bottom of the result list.
Anytime you come across a folder or application with the magnifying glass
symbol beside a text box, it can be used to search for files within the program.
