About this Superguide

Nobody spends more time with Apple's computers and software than the writers and editors at Macworld, the world's foremost Mac authority.

Now, let Macworld's team of experts take you on a tour of Apple's newest operating system, Mac OS X 10.7, aka Lion. Rebuilt to incorporate many of the lessons learned from Apple'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 you've got Lion up and running, discover how to navigate the new inter- face 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 Lion's new Auto Save, Versions, and Resume features. Protect yourself from would-be data thieves by using Apple's FileVault 2 encryption service. And finally, find out about tons of new features, large and small, that Apple has added to the OS's included applications.

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