Help Files - saving space on your disk - after you are familiar with the program, move the help file over to an archive disk. (You may put help files from other applications on this disk.) If you need help with a certain program you might get by with inserting your archive disk. This will not work for all programs as some applications require that the help file be on the same disk on in the same folder as the application. (An example would be Filemaker Plus.)

Files - recovering - sometimes the housekeeping information that links a file to a specific application gets damaged, resulting in your being unable to open the file. To reestablish the link, try opening the application first, then open the file from within the application. If you are successful in opening the file, go immediately to the Save As command and resave your file to a different disk. The link will be reestablished.

Disks - backing up non copy-protected disks: Method 1. Select all the files on the source disk
(Command-A) and drag them to the target disk
(backup disk). Method 2. Drag the icon of the source disk onto the icon of the target disk. The first method will add the copied files to whatever is already on the disk while the second method will completely ERASE everything that was on the target disk. The second method may be the safest - there may be invisible files that would not get copied if you used the first method.
