SUMMARY

When you use Microsoft ActiMates Interactive Barney with your Barney software, sometimes Barney appears on the computer screen, and other times he does not.

For three of the Barney software titles, Fun on the Farm with Barney, Barney Goes to the Circus, and Barney Under the Sea, Barney appears on your computer screen whenever ActiMates Barney is not present. To use ActiMates Barney with the Barney software, place Barney near the computer and squeeze his hand to make sure he's awake before you start the Barney software.

NOTE: ActiMates Barney is required when you use Microsoft Fun on Imagination Island and therefore never appears on your computer screen while you're using this software title.

APPLIES TO
  • Microsoft ActiMates Interactive Barney
  • Microsoft ActiMates PC Pack
  • Microsoft ActiMates Barney Goes to the Circus
  • Microsoft ActiMates Barney Under the Sea
