Product Description
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 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.

 Surprised at how easy it was September 3, 2010

This was the first time I ever ordered anything from Amazon and did so because I finally invested in a Macintosh and really needed the $35 manual but didn't want to pay full price. So I found one that was "used" and since it was only $1.59, I decided to take a chance. Well, this so called "used" manual came to me practically brand new. And right away too, with no problems. Am very happy with how the whole thing was handled and how I was kept informed of what was happening. This manual is great and it very easily helps me whenever I need it. Thank you Amazon. This used book is just as good as a new book.

This book is on my desk all the time and has answered more questions than I thought I'd ever have and solved a lot of problems.
Just what the title says! April 11, 2010

Macs are supposed to be intuitive, but apparently I have no intuition! This book is exactly what I have needed.
 The book to read when there is no book. March 14, 2010

This book did not arrive as the merchant (reanimationed) decided not to send it. Instead, I received an email to say that it would cost too much to post and that I was being given a refund instead.
This message was sent one week after I received a message from the merchant saying that the book had been shipped !!!!
I emailed the merchant asking for an explanation but this failed to produce a response.
This is unsatisfactory.

My wife got me a Rosetta Stone program last December. Well I was running Panther and couldn't get started. After getting Leopard installed I automatically got Pogue Press' Missing Manual.
As a rule you can't go wrong with a Pogue Press Product.
