Covers Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and iLife '08!

Apple's .Mac service provides oodles of features, but are you making the most of your membership? In this 193-page book by Macintosh expert Joe Kissell, you'll find help with all the features, whether you are just getting started and want to customize your .Mac preferences or you've been using .Mac for years but have never tried to use .Mac's advanced capabilities.

This version of Take Control of .Mac has been thoroughly overhauled to reflect all the latest developments in Mac OS X, iLife, and .Mac. Although nearly every page contains at least some changes, the major differences from the previous version are:

• Extensive updates throughout the book to reflect changes in features and user interface in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.
• Information on new types of data you can sync via .Mac under Leopard-Dashboard widgets, Dock contents, notes, and preferences.
• Descriptions of Leopard's revised sync alert interface.
• Instructions on publishing new types of calendar data (to do items and attachments).
• An explanation of how to connect to your iDisk using Windows Vista.
• A discussion of whether Backup and iDisk are still useful for backups given the advent of Time Machine.
• Instructions for making Web sites using iWeb '08.
• Information on Web Gallery.
• Details about using .Mac with other iLife '08 applications and removal of information about iLife '06.
• Instructions for using Back to My Mac for remote file and screen sharing.
