Microsoft Word 2004 for Mac OS X

admin — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 09:40:19 +0000

Hard to read – Donald A. Hamilton –
I find the print quality very poor, especially for the example figures. Some of the print is so small and blurred
that I can’t even read it with a magnifying glass. Otherwise the overall general text is pretty good.
Microsoft Word 2004 for Mac OS X : Sure, you were happy when the first Mac OS X-compatible version of Word arrived (after all, it’s the one software program you can’t live without). But this is the version you’ve really been waiting for. In contrast to Word for Mac OS X-which gelled nicely with the new OS but didn’t offer much compelling additional functionality-Word 2004 offers a slew of usability improvements. To start taking advantage of them immediately, you need this task-based guide from popular Mac teacher Maria Langer! Using simple step-by-step instructions, loads of visual aids, and plenty of well-placed tips, Maria gets you up and running fast on the basics before moving on to cover more advanced techniques (formatting, inserting objects, creating outlines, and more). If you’re a veteran user, you can go directly to the new material (for example, learning how to record audio notes and link them to your Word docs). And if you’re a beginner, you’ll appreciate the thorough coverage of all the most common Word tasks. read more

Mac OS X 10.3 Panther. Der PowerFinder für den Mac

admin — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 03:15:27 +0000

Gebundene Mac-Hilfe – M. Dellin –
Dieses Buch ist für Menschen geeignet, die noch nie einen Computer gesehen haben. Ich bin von der Windows2000 Welt in die Macwelt umgestiegen und dachte mir ein wenig Literatur kann nicht schaden. Aber dieses Buch ist dazu gedacht nicht die integrierte Hilfe im Mac OS X 10.3 zu nutzen. Jedes Thema, das im Buch angesprochen wird, findet man genauso detailliert in der Mac-Hilfe. Also sobald jemand auch nur die blasseste Ahnung hat wie man eine Maus bedient und die Hilfe anklicken kann, dem sei von diesem Buch abgeraten.
Mac OS X 10.3 Panther. Der PowerFinder für den Mac : Ein Mac ist mehr als ein Computer, und mit der Verschmelzung von Mac-Psychologie und Unix-Technik haben sich die Mac-Philosophen erneut ein solides Fundament gegossen und dem Mythos, es anders als die anderen zu machen, wieder ein Steinchen hinzugefügt. Uthelm Bechtel liefert mit Mac OS X 10.3 Panther zur aktuellen 10.3-Version des Mac OS X die passende Anleitung in Form eines ansprechenden Buchs, das auf die Ästhetik der Mac-User zugeschnitten ist und für alle Mac-Anwender einen bequemen Sattel auf den Panther-Rücken schnallt.

Auffällig ist schon auf den ersten Blick die Zwei-Farben-Optik: in Grauschwarz/Grau. Sehr angenehm zu lesen und anzusehen. Ebenso wie die Optik ist auch das Lay-out gefällig und lädt zum Lesen ein. Das sei vorab erwähnt, ohne damit den Inhalt schmälern zu wollen.

Uthelm Bechtel beginnt bei der Geschichte des Macintosh bis hin zum neuen Mac-/Unix-System. Es folgt die zu Grunde liegende Technik, denn so wie der Strom nicht aus der Steckdose kommt, fallen die Rechenleistung und der Speicher nicht aus dem Mac-Himmel. Der Hauptteil des Buchs wird vom Praxisteil eingenommen, bei dem es sich um einen detaillierten und leicht nachvollziehbaren Einstieg in die Bedienung und den Aufbau des Mac-OS-X-Systems in der 10.3-Panther-Version handelt. Die Themen ziehen sich dabei von der Installation über Grundeinstellungen zur Hierarchie der Ordner bis hin zum Internetanschluss, dem Datenaustausch mit dem PC, Druck, AppleScript, dem Unix-Fundament bis hin zu Lösungen bei Problemen. Im Anschluss an den Praxisteil folgt noch eine übersichtliche Referenz etwa zu Menübefehlen und Programmübersichten, gefolgt von einem Index.

Wie schon erwähnt, Mac OS X 10.3 Panther ist ein ansprechendes Buch, das Form und Funktion angenehm verbindet. Die Texte sind klar und leicht nachvollziehbar in verständliche Happen aufgeteilt, die Screenshots und Bildchen unterstützen. Auch der fortgeschrittene Mac-Anwender mag hier noch weiterlernen, aber im Herzen ist Uthelm Bechtels Werk ein Einsteigerbuch, wie man es sich wünscht. –Wolfgang Treß read more

Mac OS X Snow Leopard Digital Classroom

admin — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 17:14:25 +0000

For newbies only – Larry Schiffman – Ohio
I was about to switch over from PC to Mac after nearly 20 years and a high degree of familiarity (and frustration) with Windows. I wanted a visual guide of where to find things and how to do them; because obviously the Mac operating system is organized differently from what I had been using. The book, with nice pictures and step by step instructions, succeeds in providing the bare essentials for a someone new to computer; but is woefully incomplete. There are simply many subjects not touched on (there’s for instance, no mention of the fact that Macs are not designed to Defrag, and a few that could have been omitted (does someone starting out really want to tackle Terminal(from what I can discern the Mac equivalent of a DOS window), when first starting out? The CD provided with the book provides little more than some files to push around. I had a ton of those from my previous computer.
I found that, perhaps because Snow Leopard is so stable and logical, I could stumble around the system, opening menus and windows and teaching myself how to do virtually everything I can do on a PC. If one is not intimidated by a new machine, and has some prior experience on computers, there surely are better books out there.

Unix for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger: Visual QuickPro Guide (2nd Edition)

admin — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 22:20:10 +0000

An excellent and easy to follow introduction to UNIX – Laurent Jolissaint –
this book explains all the important basic topic every UNIX user should know, even if she/he does not need to write scripts. In particular, if you have been a UNIX user since a long time, just using the basic commands (ls, cd etc – because at the university/college it was the OS by default and basically you had no choice ) and now want/need to go a little bit further down the road, this is the book to start with. Title could have been “Everything you ever wanted to know about UNIX … ” because it also tells about the little stories behind the commands – origin of names, why, who, when etc. A good book, for sure.
Unix for Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger: Visual QuickPro Guide (2nd Edition) : As Unix spreads its tentacles across users’ desktops, more and more Mac users are starting to pop the hood and learn about the operating system that’s at the root of it all. And there’s no better way to conquer that fear than by consulting this Visual QuickPro Guide. Matisse Enzer, who wrote the first edition of this book, Unix for Mac OS X: Visual QuickPro Guide has completely updated this guide to reflect all that’s new in Tiger’s version of Unix. Readers will learn everything they need to know to make sense of the commands and technical jargon surrounding Unix. In the process they’ll find out about useful utilities, editing and printing files, security, and more–all through simple, step-by-step instructions that break the learning process into manageable chunks. Throughout, users will find plenty of the tips and visual references that have become the hallmark of Peachpit’s popular Visual QuickPro Guides. Unix for Mac OS X 10.4: Visual QuickPro Guide is perfect for any Mac user interested in learning about the Unix operating system. read more

MAC OS X UNIX Toolbox: 1000+ Commands for the Mac OS X

admin — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 14:29:18 +0000

Title is misleading – goaliefight –
There aren’t 1000+ commands covered in the book. It’s only 288 pages so unless there are 4 or 5 commands on each page (which there aren’t) then it’s not going to add up to 1000. There are probably more like 100 commands that, with multiple usage examples, may equal close to 1000 EXAMPLES but there are definitely not 1000 DIFFERENT COMMANDS covered in this book or any of the other books in the * Toolbox series.

Outside of that, the book is a good introduction to the Mac OS X command line. I would give it 4 stars if the title wasn’t outright false advertising. A more accurate title would be “Introduction to the Mac OS X Command Line” which would better describe what this book really is.

Don’t buy if you expect to learn 1000 new and exotic Unix commands because this book does not cover them. Do buy if you are looking for a simple introduction to the Unix core of Mac OS X.
MAC OS X UNIX Toolbox: 1000+ Commands for the Mac OS X :
