Apps/Applications
An app (abbreviation of the word "application") or application is a program that
you can download from the Windows Store, for example, and install on your
Primebook. Games, programs for playing back images and music iles, word
processing programs and a lot more are available.
Audio Out/Mic In
This description of the audio port on your Primebook indicates that you can
connect simple headphones or earphones (audio signal out) to the port as well
as a headset with microphone (audio/microphone signal in).
Bluetooth®
Bluetooth is a standardised wireless interface on your Primebook that enables
a wireless exchange of data between your Primebook and other suitable
peripheral devices.
HDMI®
HDMI stands for "High Deinition Multimedia Interface" and is a cable-based
interface for digital image and sound transmission to connected HDMI-ready
peripheral devices. Using a suitable HDMI cable, you can, for example, play the
videos stored on your Primebook on an HDMI-ready television without having to
irst save the videos on your television.
Microsoft account
"Microsoft account" is the new name for the previous "Windows Live ID". Your
Microsoft account consists of an e-mail address and a password that you
need to sign into services such as Outlook.com, OneDrive, Windows Phone
or Xbox Live. If you use an e-mail address and password to sign into these or
other services, this means that you already have a Microsoft account. You can,
however, register for a new account at any time.
Scrolling
Scrolling refers to the act of moving the screen contents either horizontally or
vertically. You can scroll by using the scroll bar or by using the scroll wheel on the
mouse.
Task bar
The task bar is the horizontal bar found at the bottom of your Primebook. Unlike
your desktop, which can be covered by opened windows, the task bar is almost
always visible. The task bar therefore provides you with constant access to the
important functions and settings of your Primebook plus an overview of all the
windows you have open.
