You can set your watch to it: As soon as Apple comes out with
another version of Mac OS X, David Pogue hits the streets with
another meticulous Missing Manual to cover it with a wealth of
detail. The new Mac OS X 10.4, better known as Tiger, is faster
than its predecessors, but nothing's too fast for Pogue and "Mac OS
X: The Missing Manual," There are many reasons why this is the most
popular computer book of all time.
With its hallmark objectivity, the Tiger Edition thoroughly
explores the latest features to grace the Mac OS. Which ones work
well and which do not? What should you look for? This book tackles
Spotlight, an enhanced search feature that helps you find anything
on your computer; iChat AV for videoconferencing; Automator for
automating repetitive, manual or batch tasks; and the hundreds of
smaller tweaks and changes, good and bad, that Apple's marketing
never bothers to mention.
"Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Tiger Edition" is the
authoritative book that's ideal for every user, including people
coming to the Mac for the first time. Our guide offers an ideal
introduction that demystifies the Dock, the unfamiliar Mac OS X
folder structure, and the entirely new Mail application. There are
also mini-manuals on iLife applications such as iMovie, iDVD, and
iPhoto, those much-heralded digital media programs, and a tutorial
for Safari, Mac's own web browser.
And plenty more: learn to configure Mac OS X using the System
Preferences application, keep your Mac secure with FileVault, and
learn about Tiger's enhanced Firewall capabilities. If you're so
inclined, this Missing Manual also offers an easy introduction to
the Terminal application for issuing basic Unix commands.
There's something new on practically every page, and David
Pogue brings his celebrated wit and expertise to every one of them.
Mac's brought a new cat to town and we have a great new way to tame
it.
