If something doesn't work, don't wonder what you are doing wrong.  It is quite common for some things to break when a new viewer or server is rolled out.  If you try something and it does not work:

• If you don't need it right now, wait.  
• Come back later when you want it.  
• Maybe it will be fixed.  
• Maybe you will see information that helps.

• If you need it right now, try V3.2: How to button: Linden Helpers at Greeter Island

If you are puzzled by something in a window:

• Hover your cursor over the item, look for pop-up help
• Or look for a question mark in the window (upper right).  Click for help
