    This was helpful to get my parents familiarized with their device. And for the guy looking for the microphone page 2 (take a tour) shows where the microphone is. It is right on top of the camera on older Macs and on top and to the side on the M1s

  • Where is the damed microphone

    By Donthun
    I want to make sure that if I made a recording that I will be able to place my recording device as close to the microphone as possible. I have not found where the microphone is located on the iMac. There are images of where the speakers are and many other external accessories but not the microphone. Is it supposed to be a secret? I am flabbergasted! And to make it even worse there is nothing to indicate where the cursor is supposed to be in this box. I sincerely hope this helps.

    I wish I could figure out how to download it. Usually you just click on some link that will guide you, but this book requires some mystery process that I haven’t been able to figure out.

    Been using Macs since 1984. But since I upgraded from a Power Mac G4, I felt I needed to find what new stuff the Mac had in store for me. Best user's manual I have ever read and I read them all.

    Extremely helpful, and easy to follow. I do not like paper manuals and this book always on iBook, is a great resource. Thanks to the person who came up with this idea!

    Excellent read for the newly converted. Simple, easy and very informative. I knew only windows computers. This book helped me quite a bit. I refer back to it often. I give it five stars. I also downloaded another helpful book called “iMac For Dummies”. Am very happy that I finally took the plunge and made the switch to Apple. Not to take away anything from Windows. They are still great. But Apple is so different and so awesome. I love everything about it.

    I am expecting to receive my iMac from Apple this week, and I began reading the iMac Essentials on my MacBook Air (laptop). The page numbers on iMac Essentials are there, but so faint that it is almost impossible to read. I don’t understand why the page numbers are so faint, and I can not find a constructive help from the Help. Can you help?
  • Very Bad Interface and Download

    I am extremely dissatisfied with the inability to download a jpg copy of this for taking on the go for viewing on non-Apple products. Currently I am limited as to being able to only view it on my iMac. I do not use iPhones, nor do I use iPads. The fact that Apple has chosen to make it mandatory that it be only viewable on an Apple iOS device is absolutely ridiculous, especially for someone who has trouble viewing documents on small screens. Shame on you Apple.

  • iMac Essentially GREAT!

    I received my iMac the day before yesterday. I first turned it on yesterday and set it up. I’d have had less of a problem migrating files from a Windows PC (never going back) if I had read this guide prior to the set up. I wish this was in printed form and came in the box with the iMac. I have learned so much just by reading this guide that I never suspected an iMac can do or how easy it is to do it. Great guide, especially for a new to iMac user. I will be using it as a reference guide whenever if I have to but I don’t believe that will be for too long. Essentially GREAT!

    This is my first iMac after after many years of android products I finnally made that jump and I am so glad I did. This iBook is an easy read a great short book that covered the basic and was an eye opener for me, especially the section on keyboard functions along with many other sections that expain shortcut to using the MAC without boring you to death. Hey, It may not have everthing in it about the MAC but it had enough for me. You know what they say “ You don’t know what you don’t know” but it a wonderful thing to have the tools to begin learning. Thanks
