Product Description:
Is Windows giving you pause? Ready to make the leap to the Mac instead? There has never been a better time to switch from Windows to Mac, and this incomparable guide will help you make a smooth transition. New York Times columnist and Missing Manuals creator David Pogue gets you past three challenges: transferring your stuff, assembling Mac programs so you can do what you did with Windows, and learning your way around Mac OS X. Why is this such a good time to switch? Upgrading from one version of Windows to another used to be simple. But now there's Windows Vista, a veritable resource hog that forces you to relearn everything. Learning a Mac is not a piece of cake, but once you do, the rewards are oh-so-much better. No viruses, worms or spyware. No questionable firewalls, inefficient permissions, or other strange features. Just a beautiful machine with a thoroughly reliable system. And if you're still using Windows XP, we've got you covered, too. If you're ready to take on Mac OS X Leopard, the latest edition of this bestselling guide tells you everything you need to know: Transferring your stuff -- Moving photos, MP3s, and Microsoft Office documents is the easy part. This book gets you through the tricky things: extracting your email, address book, calendar, Web bookmarks, buddy list, desktop pictures, and MP3 files. Re-creating your software suite -- Big-name programs (Word, Photoshop, Firefox, Dreamweaver, and so on) are available in both Mac and Windows versions, but hundreds of other programs are available only for Windows. This guide identifies the Mac equivalents and explains how to move your data to them. Learning Leopard -- Once you've moved into the Mac, a final task awaits: Learning your way around. Fortunately, you're in good hands with the author of Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, the #1 bestselling guide to the Macintosh. Moving from Windows to a Mac successfully and painlessly is the one thing Apple does not deliver. Switching to the Mac: The Missing Manual, Leopard Edition is your ticket to a new computing experience.

Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - A book for those who already know its contents
I am switching from PC to iMAC after tiring of continual crashes and bought this to aid me. This book is of only slight value to a novice. If the reader knew as much about iMACs as the author assumes, there would be little reason to purchase this book. Check it out yourself. Think of some simple operations that you perform on your PC. Then, peruse the index for this book in an attempt to learn how to perform the same functions on an iMAC. In the unlikely event that you find in the index what ... Read More


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Switching to the MAC
This is/was a great help to me a Windows/Linux user. The MAC is awesome and the OSX a welcome change to what I'm use to. OSX is different and similar and this text sorts out the quirks. I found it a quick read and full of help. The items this doesn't cover Google does. It made a good transition for me.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Essential by for anyone going from PC to Mac
Fantastic book! It provided details and ideas that the staff at my local Mac reseller did not know. The switch from PC to Mac has not been easy, but it would have been much tougher without the help provided in this book. Communicating between old PCs and new Macs became simple. Moving all old emails and email boxes was a breeze.


Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Misinformation in Missing Manual
Note: 'The Tornado' does NOT transfer data from your PC to your Mac. That is the most glaring error. There is very little usable info to assist in moving data. There is nothing listed for iTunes transfer. You're better off spending time and $0 reading the support sections of the Apple website.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome!!
I have recently moved from PC to a MacBook. After being a PC guy for the past 20 plus years, I found it very difficult to figure out how to do things with the MAC. Everything is different on the Mac OS. The first time I tried to change from PC to Mac I became frustrated and returned to the PC. A few months later, I decided to give it another try. This book has been a savior! This really is the book that should come with the MAC. It is very complete without being a "techie" manual. I can easily find ... Read More
