Résumé

If you buy a new Macintosh, you instantly become the owner of not one but two OSes-all Macs now ship with OS 9 and OS X preinstalled. The good news: You get the best of both worlds. The bad news: You also get the potential problems inherent in each OS. Mac 911 is the rare book that provides troubleshooting tips for both operating systems. Divided into three main sections, Mac 911 not only offers quick-and-dirty fixes for what ails your Macintosh, it also includes projects that show you how to get the most out of your Mac.

The first section of Mac 911 focuses on troubleshooting startup problems and Finder mishaps, and gives you the tools and techniques you need when applications go bad in either OS X or OS 9. In section two, author Chris Breen explores the untapped potential of the Mac. Learn how to upgrade your Mac, set up a network and use AirPort, build a backup server, create an MP3 server, play games on a network-in other words, make your Mac a veritable "digital hub" connected to today's peripherals and technologies. And don't miss the eclectic section three, which includes a list of cool doodads, software, and Web sites, as well as more tips and tricks.
