Q: Why can't I eject the CD-ROM from my Macintosh hard drive? A: If you get a message that your CD-ROM will not eject from your Macintosh hard drive then you should restart your computer and load the CD-ROM in Netscape 4.7 rather than Internet Explorer. Q: I don't see the graphics on some screens. In the place where I expect somethi ng to appear I only see a plug-in icon. What should I do? A: One or more plug-ins are not up to date or are not installed correctly for yo ur browser. Run the installer from the CD-ROM (double-click Windows_Installer.ex e or Macintosh_Installer) or go to the Site Requirements page by clicking "Site Reqs" at the top of the CD-ROM or Web site window. The Site Requirements page wi ll show you which plug-ins are not working. If your plug-ins are installed corre ctly, you will see three animated graphics on the Site Requirements page.

Q: How do I turn off the narration or adjust the volume? A: Adjust the volume using your computer's sound control or speaker knobs. To tu rn off the sound completely, turn the volume down as far as possible or, if you have the option, select "Mute." Q: I can't see the bottom of the graphics in the activities. What can I do? A: Your screen is either too small or at too low a resolution. Try the following : move the browser window to the top of your screen and make it bigger; increase your screen resolution (it must be at least 800 x 600); hide your browser's too l bars; or, try refreshing/reloading the screen. Q: I'm using a Macintosh and my browser gives me a message that it is running lo w on memory. What should I do? A: Try quitting any other applications you have open. If this does not work, try allocating more memory to your browser. To do this, quit your browser and locat e the application on your hard disk.

Go to the Site Requirements by clicking "Site Re qs" at the top of the CD-ROM or Web site window. Q: When I try to register at the Web site I get a message that I need an access code.
