Overview
In this Advanced Apple Mac OS X training course, expert author Chris Tarnowieckyi will take you beyond the basics of the Apple Mac operating system. This course assumes you have a basic working knowledge of OS X.
You will start by exploring the native OS X file system and the command line interface. Chris will then teach you how to update, install, and manage the software, including installing and removing software from the App Store and examining package receipts. This video tutorial will teach you about data security and removal, how to protect your Mac OS X with passwords, and create and manage secure accounts. You will also learn about sharing services, including screen and file sharing. Finally, you will learn how to solve problems, including force quitting an application, examining log files, and using network utility for network problems.
Once you have completed this computer based training course, you will have developed the skills necessary to take full advantage of the useful features available in OS X Mavericks. Working files are included, allowing you to follow along with the author throughout the lessons.
