Ted Landau, founder of the MacFixIt Web site, has made a career of helping others keep their Mac OS machines running happily. In Mac OS X Disaster Relief, the author of the bestselling Sad Macs, Bombs, and Other Disasters trains his diagnostician's eye on Apple's new-from-the-ground-up operating system. Full of tips, tools, and preventative measures, this easy-to-follow guide not only gives you specific solutions to a raft of Mac OS glitches, it also helps you prevent disasters and sharpen your own diagnostic skills.
The same philosophy that underlies Sad Macs operates here: You canfix most Mac problems yourself. What you get are smart, common sense solutions and sound maintenance advice, delivered in plain English. But just because Mac OS X Disaster Relief eschews jargon doesn't mean it lacks depth: the book covers OS X's new features, the pros and cons of updating system software, Library directories and folders, files and font maintenance, crash prevention and recovery, printing and networking problems, Unix commands for OS X, and more.
Ted Landau is Webmaster and editor of MacFixit, the most popular Web site dedicated to troubleshooting Macintoshes. Landau has received critical praise from virtually every respected source in the Mac community. He is the author of Sad Macs, Bombs, and Other Disasters, 4th Edition and is a contributing editor to Macworld magazine.
