Installing MyBattery

MyBattery is a stand-alone application.  It is designed to run all the time, normally in the background.

To install MyBattery, simply copy the application to where you want it - your “Utilities” folder or wherever.  The first time you run the program, it will create a “MyBattery Preferences” and “MyBattery Data” file in your “System” Folder (or in the “Preferences” folder if you are running System 7).

Running on startup under System 6.0.x

If you want MyBattery to run whenever you turn on or restart your Macintosh, perform the following steps:

1)  Locate your copy of MyBattery.
2)  Click on the application icon once to select it.
3)  From the Special menu, choose “Set Startup...”.
4)  Under the sentence that says “Upon startup, automatically open”, click on the radio button for “MyBattery”.
5)  Restart!  MyBattery should start running automatically.

Running on  startup under System 7.x

1)  Locate your copy of MyBattery.
2)  Click on the application icon once to select it.
3)  From the File menu under the Finder, choose “Create Alias”.
4)  Drag the alias to the “Startup Items” folder, inside your “System Folder”.
5)  Restart!  MyBattery should start running automatically.

	Or, if you desire, you can place the MyBattery application itself in your “Startup Items” folder, which will save a little disk space.
