The Little Mac iApps Book (Little Book Series) - Softcover

The Little Mac Book has taught a generation of readers how to use the Mac and spawned a best-selling series of Little Books that remove the fear from learning by adopting a gentle, non-techie approach to technical topics. It?s hard to call a book little, however, when it becomes so thick and chock-full of info that it takes two people to lift it?which is exactly what would have happened if author Robin Williams had tried to fit a detailed discussion of Apple?s powerful OS X iApps into her latest edition of The Little Mac Book?called Robin Williams Mac OS X Book, Jaguar Edition. Thus was born this handy companion volume: The Little Mac iApps Book. The Little Mac iApps Book provides detailed coverage of each powerful iApp that Mac OS X installs on your computer: Mail, iCal, iChat, Rendezvous, iPhoto, iTunes, iMovie, Preview, and iDVD. Through tips, techniques, and tutorials, best-selling authors John Tollett and Robin Williams teach not just how to use the individual iApps, but how to use them together and interactively. The book also discusses the benefits of setting up a .Mac account?all in the friendly, funny, unintimidating style you?ve come to expect from this popular series. If you want to tap the power of Mac OS X?s iApps?whether you?re a beginner or a veteran Mac user?you need this book.
