Troubleshooting Mac OS X, Tiger Edition

http://www.thexlab.com/ offers Troubleshooting Mac OS X, Tiger Edition as a PDF download ($19.95).

The X Lab puts a lot of Mac OS X Troubleshooting tips on-line, so you might want to take a look at those before purchasing. They do point out that there is much more material in the book than you'll find on-line, though I'd guess a lot of that is simply basic "do backups", "have a ups" sort of advice.

The ebook starts out with installation and upgrade tips, including moving from OS 9, but nothing for the former Windows user. It then moves quickly to maintenance and troubleshooting, and is quite extensive in that area. This would be an excellent choice for someone new to Mac OS X.

Because this is an ebook, all links to related resources are live. I generally don't like PDF books, but being able to search within the book and immediately access hyperlinks is helpful. I doubt there is anything here you can't find on-line, but this is a convenient collection and is also a way to help support the material they do make available freely.

Many of the products and books I review are things I purchased for my own use. Some were given to me specifically for the purpose of reviewing them. I resell or can earn commissions from the sale of some of these items. Links within these pages may be affiliate links that pay me for referring you to them. That's mostly insignificant amounts of money; whenever it is not I have made my relationship plain. I also may own stock in companies mentioned here. If you have any question, please do feel free to contact me.

Specific links that take you to pages that allow you to purchase the item I reviewed are very likely to pay me a commission. Many of the books I review were given to me by the publishers specifically for the purpose of writing a review. These gifts and referral fees do not affect my opinions; I often give bad reviews anyway.
