Summary:
macOS
Sierra
(also called OS X version 10.12) is the thirteenth major release of
macOS
(previously called OS X), Apple's desktop and server operating system for Macintosh computers. The successor to OS X El Capitan, it is the first version of the operating system issued under the rebranding as
macOS
.
Sierra
is named after California's
Sierra
Nevada mountain range. With
Sierra
, Apple brings never-before-seen features to
macOS
- like Siri voice control, file sharing across all your iOS devices, picture-in-picture mode for iTunes and Safari, and AI photo search. Whether you're a developer or a home-user, this guide offers a wealth of detail on Apple's OS X 10.12 operating system, covering everything
Sierra
has to offer. Get a crystal-clear, jargon-free introduction to the Dock, the
macOS
folder structure, Safari, Mail, and iCloud. Learn how to use new features such as Optimized Storage, the Universal Clipboard, Siri for Mac, and iCloud Drive Sync. David Pogue doesn't stop at telling you how to use
macOS
features. He wants you to know why to use them, and how to avoid common pitfalls.
