OS X Mountain Lion For Dummies

Part V

The Care and Feeding of Your Mountain Lion

In this part . . .

Here, I get into the nitty-gritty underbelly of handling trouble in OS X. In this part, I cover topics such as protecting your valuable data by backing it up, and I discuss everything you need to know about Macintosh security (which, thankfully, isn’t all that much). Next, you look at some utilities that might or might not be useful but that you should know about anyway. Finally, you find out what to do when things go wonky (which also, thankfully, doesn’t happen very much) and experience a quick run-through of Dr. Mac’s (okay, Dr. Bob’s) top troubleshooting tips for those infrequent times when a good Mountain Lion goes bad.

This material is a little geekier than the first four parts, but it could very well be the most important information in the book. Don’t miss out!
