 +====== Preparation before Coming to the basic Course ======
  
 +Before you come to the course, there are several things you should do by yourself.
 +
 +  - Installation / Upgrading of Fiji (ImageJ).
 +  - Download and install plugins.
 +  - If you have problem, call Kota (ex 8404).
 +   
 +**Details: **\\
 +
 +===== 1. Installation of the newest version Fiji(ImageJ). =====
 +
 +Please be ready with the newest Fiji installed in your laptop. If you already have one installed, be sure to upgrade the software (see step 2). If you do not want to upgrade for whatever reason, just install second one just for the course. 
 +
 +==== INSTRUCTION ====
 +
 +**step 1. Download Fiji (ImageJ)**\\
 +go to the Fiji download page:\\
 +
 +http://fiji.sc/Downloads
 +
 +Download whichever fits to your OS (in all cases, download "continuous release"). \\
 +
 +In Windows OS, you just need to unpack the zip file and place the folder on your Desktop. With Mac OSX, double click the .dmg file and install it as usual (copy Fiji to Application folder).\\
 +
 +**step 2. Upgrading**\\
 +Start Fiji.  Do  [Help -> Update Fiji...]. You might need to restart and update several times, as updater itself is updated first, restart, then plugins. 
 +
 +Do also [Help > Update ImageJ]. This updates the core ImageJ. 
 +
 +/*
 +**step 3 Check ImageJ Version**\\
 +restart ImageJ. In the menu, do [help -> about ImageJ...].\\
 +If you see "ImageJ **1.44f** (or larger)" your laptop is with the newest ImageJ.

 +===== MiSC =====
 +
 +Please bring down power extension cable (for your laptop) for the course! Those of you with a laptop that works more than 2hours only with battery does not have to do this, but since use of the laptop is intensive during the course, the power supply often becomes problem. Bring down extension cable with multiple sockets if you could find it in your lab.
