Editorial Review: Product Description: This popular book shows readers how to take advantage of the iLife '08 applications that to many are the coolest parts of using a Mac. Through tutorials, tips, and techniques readers will learn how to use each of the powerful applications -- individually and as part of an integrated, interactive suite. Robin and John also cover the features of the immensely popular .Mac Web Gallery, which enables you to share your iPhoto library with family and friends with just a few clicks. Friendly, practical instructions will have new and veteran Mac owners using all that's new in the suite in no time. They'll find everything about getting on the Internet and using email; using the way-cool iChat AV, which adds audio and video to instant messaging; using iTunes, including access to the iTunes Music Store; the new video libary in iMovie; new organization and editing tools in iPhoto; new animated themes in iDVD; and much more!

 Rating:  - Greatest author in the worldThis author is just excellent. I cannot say enough about her. She takes the technical out of technology and speaks to us like a friend.

I told Amazon about the missing pages and they sent a new one quickly. Apparently no one read my note and Amazon sent another copy that had exactly the same missing pages. I returned that one too and asked for a refund. Wasted time! I liked Robin William's books, but quality control is lacking at both the publishers and Amazon. Rating: - Tollett and William's Cool Mac Apps 3rd EditionSimply: This book is very useful for Mac Leopard and iLife users with two years of experience or less, but even advanced Mac Leopard and iLife users will pick up some useful information from this book. Along with Robin William's book "Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard" book (which overlaps some of the contents of this Cool Mac Apps book), the two books are enough to get a newer Mac user going very nicely. The two books are written in a friendly and practical style (as opposed to a technical style ... Read More Rating: - Cool Mac Apps 3rd Edition"Cool Mac Apps" Third Edition by Robin Williams is an excellent information provider for anyone using Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Covered in this book are the mac applications iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, iTunes, Mail and more, twelve in all. There is an explanation of the application and instructions on how to do each of the functions within the application. The book is quite detailed. For example iPhoto itself is 97 pages. This is an excellent book for reference after going through it at least once. ... Read More
