Robyn Ness has been using and writing about Mac OS X since 2001. Over the years, she has contributed to more than a dozen books about the Mac, web development software, and digital media. A glutton for punishment, she often helps family, friends, and colleagues diagnose and correct their computer problems and has learned the hard way what regular people understand and don’t understand about Mac OS X, and computers in general. Robyn currently works as a web developer at Ohio State University, focusing on user-centered design, information archi- tecture, and content development. In her spare time, she tests the bounds of iPhoto by taking a ridiculous number of digital photographs, the best of which can be seen at www.floraphotographs.com. She also really likes dogs. DEDICATION To all creatures great and small, except ants. I hate ants.

INTRODUCTION Welcome to Mac OS X

Macs are easy to use, their integrated apps are intuitive, and they just work. That’s all true, certainly, but it misses something important about the Mac, and particularly about Mac OS X, the Mac : Easy is not the same as simple. Easy means that you can accomplish tasks (and, importantly, figure out how to accomplish tasks) with a minimum of fuss and with no sign of bother. Simple, on the other hand, implies a kind of shallowness, a superficiality where all you get is a pretty interface. It implies, in other words, that Mac OS X has no depth. Friend, I’m here today to tell you that Mac OS X most definitely has depth. We’re talking about one of the world’s most sophisticated operating sys- tems, with millions of lines of programming code behind it, dozens of free and powerful applications installed by default, an App Store of other appli- cations to explore, and thousands of options, settings, and preferences for users to make their computer suit them. Beyond that, Apple has spent untold millions of dollars and tens of thou- sands of hours designing an interface that seems to serve just one pur- pose: to hide the depths of Mac OS X from view. That’s fine if you just want to use your Mac to accomplish a few simple goals, such as surfing the Web, managing email, sending texts, and perhaps writing a thing or two. But if your goal is to get the most out of your Mac and to make your computing more efficient and more effective, you need to go under the surface of Mac OS X and dive head first into its depths. And the best way to do that is to have a guide at your side to show you the nooks and cran- nies, light up the dark corners, and dig up the buried treasures. This book is your guide to hidden depths of Mac OS X. 2 Introduction

• To help you make the jump to Mac OS X Lion as efficiently as possible • To provide a reference for you to use as you continue to grow in your Mac OS X use

To accomplish the first purpose, this book is written in a straightforward style; you won’t find any fluff here. The book is designed to help you use Mac OS X as efficiently and effectively as possible. Everything about the book is an attempt to make specific information accessible and applicable to your daily Mac life. You will find only the background information you need to understand how to apply specific techniques and technologies; the focus is on the information you need to apply what you learn to your own Mac. To accomplish the second purpose, this book covers an extremely broad range of topics. In addition to coverage of the core functionality of the desktop, you get extensive coverage of topics to enable you to accomplish productive work with your Mac, such as surfing the Net, burning discs, and using Mac OS X’s applications to accomplish specific tasks. This book also contains substantial amounts of information to help you add devices to expand your system so you can accomplish even more. Because Mac OS X has been designed to be networked, you learn how to use its capabilities in this area to connect with other Macs, as well as to Windows networks. You learn how to both prevent and solve OS X problems along the way.

How This Book Is Organized This book consists of six parts, each of which contains at least four chapters. The following list pro- vides an overview of this book’s contents:

• Part I, “Exploring Mac OS X”—This part gets you started on the right foot. You learn the core operations of the OS, including the desktop, the Dock, and Finder. You also learn how to manage files and folders, search your Mac, set system preferences, install applications, and take control of your desktop with Mission Control and Spaces.

• Part II, “Getting Things Done with Lion’s Applications”—Mac OS X includes a number of useful applications, such as Safari, iTunes, QuickTime Player, Address Book, Mail, iCal, and others. In this part, you learn how to take advantage of these great applications.

• Part III, “Living in a Connected World”—Mac OS X has been designed to facilitate your interac- tion with networks and with the Internet. This part of the book explains how to configure Mac OS X for the Internet and how to use the tools it provides after you are connected.

• Part IV, “Delving Deeper into Mac OS X”—After Parts I to III, you’re ready to take your Mac OS X skills to a new level. In Part IV you learn how to manage user accounts; use and install fonts; set accessibility options; use the powerful Automator application; take advantage of the Mac OS X notebook features; and run UNIX and Windows on your Mac. Welcome to Mac OS X Lion In Depth 3

• Part V, “Working with Devices in Mac OS X”—No Mac is an island; this part of the book helps you understand the input and output technologies supported by Mac OS X to enable you to select and add the peripheral devices you need.

• Part VI, “Maintaining, Protecting, and Repairing Your Mac”—As great as Mac OS X is, you still need to know how to minimize problems with good preventive maintenance actions and be able to effectively solve any problems you do experience. You should also learn how to use Mac OS X’s extensive security features to protect your Mac.

Special Features This book includes the following special features:

• —Notes provide additional commentary or explanation that doesn’t fit neatly into the sur- rounding text. You will find detailed explanations of how something works, alternative ways of performing a task, and comparisons between Mac OS X and previous versions of the OS.

• Tips—Tips help you work more efficiently by providing shortcuts or hints about alternative and faster ways of accomplishing a task.

• Cautions—These sidebars provide a warning to you about situations that involve possible dan- ger to your Mac or its data.

• Cross references—Many topics are connected to other topics in various ways. Cross references help you link related information together, no matter where that information appears in the book. When another section is related to one you are reading, a cross reference directs you to a specific page in the book on which you can find related information.

Conventions To make things as clear as possible, this book doesn’t use many special conventions or formatting techniques to identify specific kinds of information. However, you need to be aware of a few things:

• Menu commands are referred to by starting with the menu name and moving down to the spe- cific command while separating each layer with a comma. For example, rather than writing, “Open the Terminal menu, then select the Services command, then select the Mail command, and then select Mail Text,” I use a shorthand technique. In this example, I would write, “Select Terminal, Services, Mail, Mail Text.” This shorthand makes the command structure more clear and cuts back on the number of words you have to read.

• Variables that stand for text that is specific to you are usually in brackets. For example, if I need to refer to your username in a specific location, I write, “[Username]” to indicate that you should look for your own information in place of the bracketed phrase.

• When you are working in the Terminal, the commands you enter and the output you see are in a monospace font like this.

➥ Wondering what Terminal commands are? That’s covered in Chapter 23, “Working with the Mac OS X Command Line.” 4 Introduction

Who Should Use This Book In this book, I’ve made certain assumptions about your specific experience with the Mac OS and your general comfort level with technology. The biggest assumption is that you are quite comfort- able with how to use a mouse, how to copy and move files, the basics of drag and drop, and so on. When there are significant differences in these basic tasks under Mac OS X, you will find those dif- ferences explained, but probably not in enough detail to teach you how to do them if you have never done them before. If you are completely new to computers, you will still find this book very useful, but you will also need a companion book that explains the fundamentals of using a Mac in more detail than is pro- vided in this book, such as Easy Mac OS X Lion. If you are coming to the Mac as an experienced user of Windows PCs, this book will help you learn where all the goodies are in Mac OS X so that you’ll quickly get up to speed. If you have used previous versions of the Mac OS X and are comfortable with basic tasks, this book will help you make the jump to Mac OS X version 10.7 in a short time. It also will serve as a compre- hensive reference for you as you explore this amazing operating system. And if you’re already used to iOS used on the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, you’ll see aspects of their interfaces in Mac OS X Lion in the App Store and options for multitouch commands with trackpad- connected Macs. 25

RUNNING WINDOWS ON YOUR MAC Over the past few years, the has risen in popularity among both home and business users. Applications that, for a long time, have been PC-only (such as Outlook and AutoCAD) are finding their way back to the Mac. And, unlike the early years of incompatibility, it is easy to integrate Mac OS X Lion into a Windows network. On top of all that, the Mac’s capability to actually run Windows applications is just another rea- son to love Mac OS X’s versatility. Choosing How to Run Windows on a Mac

Despite the Mac’s power and range of software, there are still quite a few reasons that you might need to run Windows:

• No Mac version of the software you need—Windows has by far the largest collection of desktop applications. Some developers don’t create Mac versions of their software, especially in specialty markets. In that case, you need Windows to run one of those non-Mac programs.

• The Mac equivalent just isn’t the same for you—If you use Windows at work, or if you used to run Windows at home, you might have a favorite Windows program that doesn’t have a Mac version. There might be Mac applications that do something similar, but you really like the version you were using on Windows. In that case, you need Windows in order to install and run that program. 466 Running Windows on Your Mac ART P IV • Better gaming opportunities—If you like to play games, you probably already know that the Mac isn’t the top gaming plat- tip form.

In all these examples, you probably only need to use Windows every now and then, or just for short periods each day. Buying a separate PC to run Windows will set you back hundreds of dollars (at least), which is more than likely wasteful for something that you won’t be using all that often. On the other hand, each of the methods for running Windows on your Mac that I talk about in this chapter is entirely free (although you might also need a copy of Windows, so be sure to add that into your budget). Either way, running Windows on your Mac is much more economical than using a separate PC, and you don’t have to clutter your desk with mul- tiple monitors, keyboards, and mice.

Understanding Boot Camp The option that is native to OS X Lion is running Windows via Boot Camp. When you use this option, you can choose to note boot your Mac in the Mac OS or in Windows. When you boot in To run Windows on a Mac, you Windows, you have a fully functional Windows PC on your hands. do have to purchase a full copy (It will probably outperform many dedicated Windows machines, of Windows 7 to install whether too.) This option is great because it enables you to run Windows you use Boot Camp or a virtual- and its applications on your Mac. However, this method has one ization application.

Make sure you get a full version; an but if you regularly run a couple of Windows applications, you upgrade version won’t work. waste a lot of time restarting the computer.

Understanding Virtualization Software The second option is to use virtualization software. This approach provides a virtual environment (also called a virtual machine or VM) in which you install and run Windows. Because the virtualiza- tion software is just another application running on the Mac, you can switch to it as easily as mov- ing to any open Mac application. So, you can leave Windows running all the time and jump into it when you need it. This makes using Windows much more convenient than the Boot Camp option. The performance of Windows in the virtual environment isn’t noticeably slower than C HAPTER Using Boot Camp to Run Windows on a Mac 467

A Third Option If virtualization or Boot Camp aren’t “Mac-like” enough for you, there is a third option: using a Windows alternative, rather than Windows itself. The Wine project (Wine Is Not an Emulator) is unique in that no copy of Windows needs to be installed to use Windows applications and games. Instead, Wine itself is a complete reimple- mentation of Windows that runs on top of Lion. When a Windows application runs with Wine, it passes Windows instructions to Wine, which, in turn, asks Lion to do the equivalent operation. For example, if an application wants to display draw something on the screen, it executes the appropriate Windows “draw” command in Wine, which translates the called command into an equivalent Lion “draw” command. The result? Windows applications just run on OS X. Double- click and away they go! Like virtualization software, there are free Wine implementations and commercial offerings if you desire support. I recommend checking out the commercial application CrossOver (http://www.codeweavers.com/ products/crossover/) if you want to take this approach. It is the easiest-to-use option, has fre- quent updates, and excellent support. Note, however, CrossOver performance is not optimal for all games and programs.

Using Boot Camp to Run Windows on a Mac

Following are the general steps to get Windows running under Boot Camp: note 1. Run the Boot Camp Assistant to prepare your Mac for Windows To get support for Boot Camp, and install it. visit http://www.apple.com/ support/bootcamp/. 2. Install Windows.

The couple of sections take you through the details. 468 Running Windows on Your Mac ART P IV Running the Boot Camp Assistant and Installing Windows The Boot Camp Assistant prepares your Mac for a Windows instal- lation. It aids you by downloading Windows drivers for your Mac caution hardware and lets you partition your hard drive to create a Windows Part of the Boot Camp preparation volume.

Before you do this, make Camp Assistant. You see the first screen of the assistant (see sure you have all your data backed up in case something goes wrong. Figure 25.1). Click Continue to begin.

Figure 25.1 The Boot Camp Assistant walks you through the process of prepar- ing for Boot Camp.

2. You are prompted to download Windows support software. Choose the download option and then click Continue.

3. The Windows support software is downloaded. This can take quite awhile, so be patient.

4. When the download is complete, you are prompted to burn the software to CD or DVD (see Figure 25.2). Click Continue, and then insert an optical disk when directed. Note that you are also given the option of storing the files on an external disk; you can use this approach if you do not have access to a CD/DVD burner.

5. After the support software is written to disc, you are taken to the Create a Partition for Windows screen (see Figure 25.3). On the left, you see the partition for OS X Lion while on the right you see the partition for Windows, which is a minimum of 5GB. ´ Boot Camp setup walks you through creating the necessary partition; however, you can also parti- tion your drive for other reasons.

Set the size of the Window partition by dragging the Resize handle between the two partitions to the left and clicking the Divide Equally button to divide the disk in two partitions. Remember that you’ll be limited to the partition’s size when you run Windows, so make sure you allow plenty of space if you are going to install a lot of Windows applications.

7. Click Partition. The partition process starts and you see its status in the window. When the pro- cess is complete, you’re prompted to insert your Windows installation disc (see Figure 25.4).

The Mac starts up under Lion again.

Switching Between OS X Lion and Windows In an ideal world, you switch between OS X Lion and Windows by restarting the Mac and then boot- ing into whichever operating system you want to use. Unfortunately, right after you install Windows via Boot Camp, you find that you’re living in a Windows world. That’s because Windows somewhat rudely sets itself up as the default startup volume. This means that every time you restart your Mac, it always boots you directly into Windows. Not to worry; you can work around this problem in a couple of ways. First, you can follow these steps to exit Windows and boot directly to OS X Lion:

1. Click the Boot Camp icon that appears in the Windows notification area.

2. Click Restart in Mac OS X, as shown in Figure 25.5. Boot Camp asks you to confirm.

3. Click OK. Boot Camp shuts down Windows and then boots into OS X Lion.

If your Mac is off and you want to boot into OS X Lion, it seems awfully inefficient to have to boot into Windows first. Fortunately, you don’t have to do this. Instead, you can invoke the Startup Manager, and you can then choose whether you want to boot to OS X Lion or Windows. Here are the steps you need to follow to switch between OS X Lion and Windows using the Startup Manager:

1. Start your Mac.

2. Hold down the Option key until you see the Startup Manager. You should see three hard disk icons: one for Macintosh HD, another for Recovery HD, and one for Windows.

3. Double-click the Macintosh HD icon. Alternatively, if you want to boot into Windows, double-click the Windows icon. 472 Running Windows on Your Mac ART P IV

Using VirtualBox for Mac to Run Windows

Following are the general steps to get Windows running under a virtual environment:

1. Download and install the virtualization software.

2. Configure a virtual environment and install Windows.

3. Run Windows in the virtual environment. C HAPTER Using VirtualBox for Mac to Run Windows 473

25 Several virtualization applications are available, but one of the best is also free: VirtualBox. This open-source application has made note great strides in performance and usability in recent years and now For more detailed information offers the same features as commercial virtualization solutions at about VirtualBox and to down- a $0 price point.

Installing VirtualBox To install VirtualBox, complete the following steps:

1. Browse to http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads.

2. Click the VirtualBox for OS X hosts link to download the disk image to your Mac.

3. When the download completes, open the VirtualBox disk image (DMG) file in your Downloads folder. The disk image opens to reveal an package (see Figure 25.6).

Figure 25.6 Double-click the VirtualBox. mpkg package to install.

4. Double-click the VirtualBox.mpkg package and follow the onscreen instructions to install VirtualBox. You should not need to change any of the default settings during the install.

5. When the installation finishes, click Close to quit the installer. You’re now ready to launch VirtualBox and install Windows. 474 Running Windows on Your Mac ART P IV Configuring a Virtual Machine and Installing Windows Each OS you run under VirtualBox has its own VM for which you can set various settings, such as the amount of disk space dedicated to that machine, where the machine is stored, and so on. Before you can install Windows, create and configure a VM for it. To set up a new Windows 7 VM, follow these simple steps:

1. Launch VirtualBox from your Applications folder or Launchpad if you haven’t done so already.

2. In the Welcome to VirtualBox window, click New. The New Virtual Machine Wizard window appears. Click Continue to begin the setup process.

3. Provide a name for the VM, choose the operating system type and version, as shown in Figure 25.7, and click Continue.

Figure 25.7 Choose the OS type and ver- sion.

4. You are prompted to choose the amount of memory to be allocated to the VM. Leave the defaults, unless you know you can spare more. The more memory, the better Windows will perform. Click Continue when ready to move on.

5. Prepare the virtual boot disk that will be used to start your VM, as shown in Figure 25.8. Again, you can just go with the recommended defaults provided by VirtualBox. You are prompted for the maximum disk size later. Click Continue to proceed.

6. Pick the type of file that will be used for the virtual disk. VDI images are the default for VirtualBox and should be your typical selection. If you need to use the disk with VMWare, choose VMDK, or select VHD for compatibility with Microsoft’s VM architecture. Click Continue. C HAPTER Using VirtualBox for Mac to Run Windows 475

Figure 25.8 Choose to cre- ate a new boot disk for the VM.

7. Choose whether the storage for your virtual disk is dynamically allocated (space is used as needed) or whether the entire space for the drive is taken out of your available storage immedi- ately. Typically, you want dynamically allocated volumes. Click Continue when ready to proceed.

8. Choose a name, save location, and maximum size for the virtual disk, as shown in Figure 25.9. Click Continue to move on.

9. Click Create to build your VM.

Figure 25.9 Choose the size and stor- age location for your drive. 476 Running Windows on Your Mac ART P IV Your VM is now ready and waiting to be used. You should be looking at the VirtualBox Manager window, as shown in Figure 25.10. From this window, you can choose between any configured VMs, start them, or delete (discard) them.

Figure 25.10 View your VMs from the VirtualBox Manager.

Of course, your VM isn’t going to do much good without a copy of Windows, so it’s time to start the VM and install. Follow these steps to start your VirtualBox VM:

1. Within the VirtualBox Manager, select the VM you want to use and then click the Start button.

2. If the VM has been previously configured and has an OS installed, it boots in a new window and is ready to use. If not, the First Run Wizard starts, as shown in Figure 25.11. Click Continue.

3. Insert your Windows CD/DVD installation media and wait until the disk mounts.

4. Choose the location of your Windows media when prompted by the wizard, and then click Continue.

5. Click Start to boot your VM and install windows.

Windows starts and stops a time or two, and you see a variety of from Windows itself and from VirtualBox. Read and respond to the messages as seems best; in most cases, you just click OK at various prompts. C HAPTER Using VirtualBox for Mac to Run Windows 477

Figure 25.11 The First Run Wizard walks you through the installation of Windows.

After the basic installation process and initial configuration are complete, you see Windows in the VirtualBox window, exactly as if you were sitting in front of a Windows machine.

6. Log in to Windows and choose Install Guest Additions from the Devices menu, as shown in Figure 25.12. This updates the Windows drivers to dramatically improve the speed of your VM.

At the least, you need a package that protects Windows from viruses, but that is really only the basic protection you need. The application you get should also protect Windows from other threats, such as worms and macro viruses. Because there are so many Windows computers and so many threats to those computers, there are many Windows security applications from which to choose. Here are a few to check out:

• Norton Internet Security (http://www.symantec.com/index.jsp) • McAfee Internet Security Suite (http://mcafee.com/us) • Avast! Antivirus (http://www.avast.com)—This option is free for personal accounts. • AVG Internet Security (http://free.grisoft.com/)—This option is free for personal accounts.

Make sure in whichever software you use that you configure it to automatically update its virus definitions frequently; new Windows viruses emerge constantly, and so you need to ensure your security software is as current as possible. INDEX
