Product Description
Synopsis
With Leopard, Apple has unleashed the greatest version of Mac OS X yet, and David Pogue is back with another meticulous "Missing Manual" to cover the operating system with a wealth of detail. The new Mac OS X 10.5, better known as Leopard, is faster than its predecessors, but nothing's too fast for Pogue and this "Missing Manual". It's just one of reasons this is the most popular computer book of all time. "Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Leopard Edition" is the authoritative book for Mac users of all technical levels and experience.If you're new to the Mac, this book gives you a crystal-clear, jargon-free introduction to the Dock, the Mac OS X folder structure, and the Mail application. There are also mini-manuals on iLife applications such as iMovie, iDVD, and iPhoto, and a tutorial for Safari, Mac's web browser. This "Missing Manual" book is amusing and fun to read, but Pogue doesn't take his subject lightly. Which new Leopard features work well and which do not? What should you look for? What should you avoid?"

Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Leopard Edition" offers an objective and straightforward instruction for using: Leopard's totally revamped Finder; Spaces to group your windows and organize your Mac tasks; Quick Look to view files before you open them; The Time Machine, Leopard's new backup feature; Spotlight to search for and find anything in your Mac; Front Row, a new way to enjoy music, photos, and videos; Enhanced Parental Controls that come with Leopard; and Quick tips for setting up and configuring your Mac to make it your own. There's something new on practically every page of this new edition, and David Pogue brings his celebrated wit and expertise to every one of them. Mac's brought a new cat to town and "Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Leopard Edition" is a great new way to tame it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy It!!, 29 Dec 2007
If you are new to Macs, especially new to OS X 10.5 (Leopard), you should buy this book.

893 pages of facts, hints, overviews and clear explanations of everything - from simple 'how to' right through to the more complex (if there is a complex side to OS X) side of Leopard. Prior to buying this book I bought two other Leopard books...I should have waited and just bought the Missing Manual - so should you!

By Mandy "Mac Mandy" (Manchester, UK) - See all my reviews
Very good book. Covers 99% of what 99% of people need. The only mac/leopard book you'll keep refering to.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, 18 Jan 2008
As a recent convert to Mac I love it. How many times have you bought books to help you work out how to do stuff or fix things on windows and then realized that you actually need a PHD to read the dame thing???
Well with this book there comes a refreshing change. It's easy and straight forward which is also the same as using a Mac. I would have given it 5 stars except there is no real mention on the use of the iWeb program. However this is the book to have for the Mac!!! Go get it!
