Christopher Breen

It's easy to jump online and be productive with Mac OS X, but it's also easy to stop there. Many users haven't explored the depth and richness of this powerful operating system and the applications that come with it. In Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard Beyond the Basics, Chris Breen helps those who are already comfortable with Mac OS X discover new features in everyday applications like Mail, iCal, and Safari. He also explores the often overlooked "power user" tools, including Terminal, Disk Utility, and Automator, and provides troubleshooting and maintenance tips.

Closed Captioning

Closed captioning is a great resource for the hearing impaired and anyone who wants to read along with the video training. To view closed-captioning subtitles, set your screen to 1024x768 or 1280x1024, and use QuickTime 7.0.4* or newer. You can also use closed captioning to quickly find information in a course - using the "Find text in captions" box.

* Mac Safari users: please download QuickTime 7.5.5 or newer to avoid problems with closed captioning.
