Saving Your Work in a Teacher's Server Account

Welcome Back!

This week we will be saving our previous art projects to the "Public" folder of Ms. Kline's server account.

You already know how to log in to your personal server account. Now you will learn how to connect to another user's "Public" folder.

All Spurgeon staff and students have personal server accounts. Each server account also has a "Public" folder. The "Public" folder is a location where a person can put files for another user to see. This "Public" folder also has a "Drop Box" where another user may put files for the owner of the "Public" account to see.

Use the following steps to access a teacher's "Public" folder:

1. Log in to your computer with your name and password
   
2. Verify that you are in the "Finder" menu (look for the word "Finder" in the menu bar on the top left of your screen)
   
3. Click "Go" in the menu bar at the top of your screen
   
4. Drop down to "Connect to Server"
   
5. Enter the server address: x4.spurgeon.sec.sausd.edu
   
6. Click "Connect"
   
7. Enter your name and password
   
8. Scroll down to the bottom of the list to "Teachers"
   
9. Click "OK"
   
10. You will now see a list of all of the teachers
    
11. Close this window (click the red ball)
    
12. You will now see a network connection (a blue sphere) labeled "Teachers" on your desktop

You are now connected to the public accounts of your teachers. This will allow you to save files into their "Drop Boxes."

Use the following steps to save to a teacher's "Drop Box" folder:

1. Open the file you wish to save
   
2. Click File and drop down to "Save As.."
   
3. Name your file
   
4. Click the arrow to the right of the "Save As.." box to open the "Save" box
   
5. Select the "Teachers" network on the left
   
6. Select the teacher you wish to save to
   
7. Select the "Public" folder
   
8. Select the "Drop Box" folder
   
9. Click "Save" at the bottom of the screen
   
10. Your file is now saved in the "Drop Box"

Use the following steps to see a public document in a "Public" folder:

2. Click on the column view icon (3 vertical boxes) at the top of this window
   
3. Click on the teacher's name
   
4. Click on the "Public" folder
