Binding: PaperbackDewey Decimal Number: 621.38456 EAN: 9780321577832 Edition: 2nd ISBN: 0321577833 Label: Peachpit Press Manufacturer: Peachpit Press Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 336 Publication Date: October 19, 2008 Publisher: Peachpit Press Studio: Peachpit Press Editorial Review: Product Description: The first edition of "The iPhone Book" was chosen by Amazon's editors as their Computer/Technology Book of the Year. This new version of the book, totally updated and expanded for the 3G iPhone, was chosen by Amazon as one of their "Top 10 Must-Have Books" in their annual list of the most "gift-worthy" books of the holiday season. Here's why this book has become such a hit with iPhone users around the world: it's not a “Tell-me-all-about-it” book, which has in-depth discussions on everything from wireless network protocols to advanced compression codes. Instead it's a “show-me-how-to-do-it” book, that skips all the confusing techno-jargon and just tells you, in plain simple English, exactly how to use the iPhone features you want to use most. The book’s layout is brilliant, with each page covering just one single topic, so finding the information you need is quick and easy, with a large full-color photo on each page so you can see exactly how it works. In this book, you'll learn: • How to set up and manage your email the right way from the start • How to take advantage of the iPhone's Web features (including important tips that help you avoid frustration, and get you where you want to go fast!) • How to download and install applications from Apple's online App Store • The key trouble-shooting tips you've got to know • How to get your favorite photos onto your iPhone, tips for using its built-in camera, and how to make the most of the iPhone's surprisingly powerful photo features • The tips you've got to know to use your iPhone's built-in iPod features, including watching videos, podcasts, TV shows and movies (you're going to amazed at some of the cool things you can do) • How to use the iPhone's built-in applications to organize your life (you'll learn things in this chapter you didn't know the iPhone could do!) • The top 20 tips for the iPhone's phone feature that will make you fall in love with it (you'll never want to use any other phone again) • Plus so much more, including a special bonus chapter called "iPhone Killer Tips" where you'll learn those hidden secrets that you'll be passing on to your iPhone friends (and they will be amazed!). The iPhone Book is from Scott Kelby, the award-winning author of the smash bestseller, The iPod Book, who teams up once again with gadget guru, and iPhone authority, Terry White to put together a book that is an awful lot like the iPhone itselfâsimple to use and fun to learn. In this major update to the book, Scott and Terry added even more tips, more tricks, and made it even easier by focusing on just the most useful and most requested features (without all the techno-babble) so you can start really using your iPhone today! BONUS VIDEO: The authors put together a special in-depth video just for readers of the book where they not only share their favorite iPhone accessories, but they share even more of those hidden little time-saving tips that can make all the difference in the world. If you've been waiting for a book that focuses on just the most important, most useful, and most fun stuff about your iPhoneâyou’ve found it. Average Rating:
 Rating: - If you have an iPhone or a Touch, you've got to get this book!If you've got an iPhone or iPod Touch, have I got a book for you! I've had my touch for over a year, and love, love, love it. So does my dh (who is technophobic), which has caused a bit of, um, tension. So, I'm getting my iPhone in 13 days. I've been reading everything I can get my hands on about the iPhone, just because that's the way I do things. Anyway, I got this book in the mail yesterday (thanks, Amazon Prime!). I can't put it down! I thought I knew everything about using ... Read More Rating: - Scott and Terry did it again !!WOW !! Scott and Terry managed to write yet another INCREDIBLE iPhone book. Seriously, I thought I knew everything about my iPhone (b/c I have their first edition iPhone book also), but this book informed me of SOOO many useful tips that I was unaware of. Seriously, I think Apple should let these two write the manual that comes with the iPhone.... B/C then there would be no reason for anyone else to even attempt writing an iPhone book... it covers EVERYTHING !! Even if you think you know everything ...

I honestly thought I knew everything I needed to know about it. But holy cow, I found out that there's a whole bunch of stuff that I really didn't know and that the phone has hidden power I'd never tapped. The Killer Tips & Tricks chapter is awesome. I never realized how to access special characters on the keyboard or other domain types besides .com, how to change the size of the caller ... Read More Rating: - Great Resource!What a great book to have to learn all about the iPhone. There are how to tips, little known features, and great ideas on really personalizing your iPhone. One of my favorites is creating your own wallpaper business card for your iPhone. Whether you've had your iPhone for awhile, or just got one, you'll find many tips in this book for you. Rating: - Very useful "how to" guide to the iPhone/iPod TouchThis is the second edition of Terry White and Scott Kelby's "The iPhone Book". It's been updated for the new firmware and the 3G iPhone. Like the first book, this one is primarily a "how to" guide, and it does that very well. Every page has a different, focussed "how to" item, from the simple things for first-time owners (like how to turn the thing on!) to more complex items (such as viewing RSS feeds on your iPhone). What's really nice about the way this book is organized is that you don't ... Read More |
