Summary

Updated to include coverage on Mac OS X Moutain Lion. Mac users are passionate and loyal and these books capture that same feeling in pedagogy and series style. Titles in the Portable Genius series are not comprehensive; instead they aim to provide readers with the most accessible, useful information possible by giving readers tips and techniques for the most used features in a product or software. Genius icons present smart or innovative ways to do something; in many cases, this will be a way that readers can save time or hassle. A handy smaller trim size makes it easy for readers to carry with them essential information on the hottest tips and tricks for their iMac. They'll find essential information coupled with savvy advice on everything from simple tasks like getting started, to intermediate information that covers how to troubleshoot and maintain an iMac and related hardware and software.

Author Biography
