>KidPix will only function on a computer that has KidPix software. If you do not finish this at school and need to work on it at home, be sure to save your work in a format that can be used on ANY computer.
Some computer tips:
1) If you cannot see anything on your screen, make sure: a) the computer is on, b) the monitor is on.
2) If your computer "freezes," then hold down the power button for several seconds until your computer shuts off. After about 10 seconds, press the power button to turn the computer on again.
3) If you cannot see your flash drive icon, remove it carefully and reinsert it. If you still cannot see it, try another computer. If you STILL cannot see the icon, you may be having a problem with your flash drive.
4) Be sure to save your work every once in a while so that you don't lose any work you have done due to technical difficulties.
