Right now is always the right time to become a Mac expert!
It’s never too late to become an expert on Macs - and this friendly, updated guide written specifically for the 50+ set is the easy way to do it! Featuring larger text and figures, Macs for Seniors for Dummies takes you through all you need to know to get the most out of your Apple computer. It makes it simple for you to stay in touch with family and friends, enjoy your favorite music, TV, and movies, and hang with the younger generation using the latest social apps and video games.
Is a Macintosh the computer for you? I can unequivocally answer “Yes!” Why am I so sure? Because Apple has been producing the best consumer computers and applications for many years now — desktops, laptops, and software that surpass anything else now offered on the market. (Yes, that includes other famous companies you’ve heard of, such as Dell and Microsoft.) Macs are designed to be easy and fun to use, and computing beginners will find that Apple has a knack for writing the best personal-computer software around.
Let me be honest: I’m not easily impressed when it comes to computers. As a cynical old computer programmer (and curmudgeon), I’ve used every version of Windows that His Gatesness has produced, including the latest, Windows 10. I’ve used many Mac versions all the way back to 1989. I’m very sure that you’ll have the same great experience I’ve had using a Mac. Macs are just easy and fun! (And yes, that’s coming from a fellow senior.)
The current operating system, macOS (now in version 10.15, called Catalina), performs like a Ferrari and looks as good too. And don’t let that term OS throw you. That’s just the name for the engine under the hood. See? Easy.
The book you hold in your hands is written especially for seniors, using the For Dummies design. You’ll find easy-to-follow and lighthearted step-by-step instructions for using the major features of both your computer and Catalina. What you don’t find in this book is wasted space or a bunch of intimidating computer terms. Everything is explained from the ground up, just in case you’ve never touched a computer, let alone one from Apple.
Beginning with which Mac to choose for your needs, you’ll learn about setting up your computer, understanding files and folders, getting the most from the latest operating system, navigating the desktop, and troubleshooting common problems. And once you’ve found your feet there, it’ll be time to get creative with home movies and photography, chat face-to-face live on video, communicate through email - the sky’s the limit!
