62 Troubleshooting and Frequently Asked Questions
• Transferring files to MSWorks takes longer than other pro-
grams like AppleWorks. This is a problem with MSWorks—all
pastes take longer, regardless of whether it is TurboTransfer or
the user doing the paste.
• If the Clipboard is empty when MSWord starts up—such as
when you first start a Macintosh—all you will get is a “Beep”
when you try to transfer from the AlphaSmart 3000. This hap-
pens when the Paste command is disabled—a bug in how
MSWord handles the Clipboard when it is empty. To solve this,
copy something into the Clipboard before you launch MSWord.
An easy fix is to go to the Scrapbook under the Apple menu and
copy (x-C or ctrl-C) anything there.
You can also try the transfer (nothing happens), quit out of MSWord,
and then re-launch the application. The transfer will work.
