This book presents dozens of nontrivial fixes, to-the-point tips, and clever workarounds in one concise and clearly organized reference. You'll find practical hints for everything from the onscreen keyboard to iTunes U to Finder tabs, including documented (but little-known) tips as well as previously undocumented ones.
