Hey, What's This?
If you're familiar with our ebooks, you've probably noticed that this one is different. It was written by our friends at Macworld (some of whom also write for Take Control and TidBITS).
If you've been boggled by what seem like basic tasks in Mac OS X, do we have an ebook for you! Written in a friendly question-and-answer format, the Macworld Mac Basics Superguide walks you through finding your way around Mac OS X, using the Dock, configuring your Mac, working with applications and documents, searching, troubleshooting, and more.
Read this ebook to learn the answers to questions such as:
- How do I add and remove items from the Dock?
- How do I change the default view of Finder windows?
- Can I delete preference panes in the Other section?
- Is there a way to retrieve an account's password?
- Can I hide an application instead of quitting it?
- What are the best places to save files?
- What should I do if an application crashes?
We encourage you to download the free 17-page sample to see what it looks like, since it is rather different from our Take Control design. If you plan to print, print a few test pages from the sample first in case you wish to consider Macworld's $24.99 print version, which has higher-resolution images than are feasible in an ebook.
