Installing Applications If you reinstall Mac OS X on your computer and select the "Erase and Install" option, you must reinstall the applications that came with your computer, such as the iLife applications. To install the applications that came with your computer: 1 Back up your important files. 2 Insert the Applications Install DVD that came with your computer. 3 Double-click Install Bundled Software. 4 Follow the onscreen instructions. 5 When the installation is complete, click Close. Maximizing Ethernet Performance Your computer performs best when the Ethernet port to which it is connected is set to autonegotiate. Ask your network administrator to verify this setting. Important: If you experience connection problems on your network, make sure your network switch is set to autonegotiate, if possible. If a switch's port is not autonegotiating, your computer detects the appropriate speed but defaults to halfduplex mode. If the switch's port at the other end of the link is configured for fullduplex mode, a large number of late events can occur on the link. If it isn't possible to set the switch to autonegotiate, then set the switch's port to half-duplex. For more information, see the documentation that came with the Ethernet switch.
