Nobody spends more time with Appleā€™s computers and software than the writers and editors at Macworld, the worldā€™s foremost Mac authority.

Now, let Macworldā€™s team of experts take you on a tour of Appleā€™s newest operating system, Mac OS X 10.7, aka Lion. Rebuilt to incorporate many of the lessons learned from Appleā€™s mobile operating system, iOS, Lion blends Multi-Touch gestures, full-screen views, improved navigation, and redesigned apps with the same Mac OS you know and love.

In this book, we walk you through everything you need to know about Lion, starting with a comprehensive rundown of all the new features present in this version of Mac OS X. We help you install Lion, troubleshoot any installation woes, and learn how to set up a boot disc or drive.

Once youā€™ve got Lion up and running, discover how to navigate the new interface by using Multi-Touch gestures, Mission Control, and Launchpad; share files in AirDrop; and control other screens via Screen Sharing. Avoid ever having to manually save documents again with Lionā€™s new Auto Save, Versions, and Resume features. Protect yourself from would-be data thieves by using Appleā€™s FileVault 2 encryption service. And finally, find out about tons of new features, large and small, that Apple has added to the OSā€™s included applications.

Let Macworld show you how to get the most out of Lion and your Mac.
