with Mac OS X or Mac OS 9.

'Fix a troubled Mac' is one of the few books that offers comprehensive
troubleshooting assistance for both Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X Users.
The author, dirtymouse, has been troubleshooting Macs professionally
for over 6 years and has written the book that unleashes some of the
troubleshooting tricks that you would normally pay very good money for.
The emphasis on this book is fixing, troubleshooting and resolving
problems through knowledge. The book is written clearly and in a
style that is easy-to-read. You will be able to find help quickly,
when under stress and at three in the morning.
The book is written for advanced Mac users (not newbies) and aimed
at creative studio and production environments and for anyone that is looking
after 5-50 macs (less than 5 and greater than 50 is fine too ;-)
'Fix a troubled Mac' starts with the essentials of being your own IT support,
covering 'The Concepts', including bringing one up to scratch with TCP/IP networking
(no degree required), then delves into the practicalities of running your studio
with a Mac OS X server, explaining firewire hard drive backup strategies, font management,
creating a software library and introducing the basics of managing data in such an environment.
From there it is up to you what you want to get out of the book. You can read the step by step
troubleshooting guides on your topics of interest, or follow the embedded hyperlinks for laterial
topic navigation within the book and on the internet.
'Fix a troubled Mac' is a part of the new generation of ebooks that
have recently been published that embrace the full benefits of
the portable document format (PDF). Making extensive use of
the hypertext index and topic links and external Internet URLs
for exploring related information when you are online
(being connected to the internet is by no means essential to getting the
full benefit of this book).
Paperless publishing reduces costs, saves paper and is economical
to keep up to date. dirtymouse offers a subscription plan to avoid
the problems of buying a book that becomes obsolete as soon
as Apple upgrades its OS. With such a plan, you can keep abrest
with the latest troubleshooting techniques and benefit from new
information and assistance within a very short time frame.
Being portable, you can pop this book in your laptop, firewire drive or iPod.
