Re: Recomendations for books

[Andy]

Hi Dolories.

Same author for sure, but my book is titled "Janet Ingber - Everything You Need 
to Know to Use the Mac".  It's a great book, but nevertheless, I'll check out 
your book title also.

All the best with your learning.

Andy.

Very best wishes and kind regards
Andy Logue.

  Hello Andy,


  I just purchased a book by Janet Ingber from the National Braille Press.  it 
is called Mac Basics for the Beginning User.  I really like  it.  I bought the 
braille copy so I can read it while trying things on the computer.   I’ve 
learned a lot from this book.  It will be a great reference tool for me.  I 
don’’t know if we are talking about the same book or not.

Hi all.

In the past I've purchased 2 great books.  They may have been from either, 
the National Braille Press or American Printhouse for the Blind.  I can no 
longer rember.


The first book concerned my Iphone and was titled:
Getting Started with the iPhoneGetting Started with the iPhone
An Introduction for Blind Users
By Anna Dresner and Dean Martineau.

This was a great book and helped me a lot, back when I was using my Iphone 
4s.

I've since upgraded to the Iphone 6s and was wondering if there was a more 
recent title by these two authours which would be more appropriate for the 
Iphone 6s and subsequent upgrades to the operating system, since then.

My second book, which I'm studying at the moment is also a fantastic book.  
It concerns My Imac and my Macbook pro and is titled:

Janet Ingber - Everything You Need to Know to Use the Mac 


I'm loving this book so much that I hunger for more from this particular 
author.

If anyone knows a link where I can purchase such titles, as txt documents, 
I'd be delighted to know.

Thanks.

Very best wishes.
Andy.
From Scotland with Love.

I think NBP National Braille press has an updated book.

Go to nbp.org and check it out.

Hello Andy,

 

I just purchased a book by Janet Ingber from the National Braille Press.  it is 
called Mac Basics for the Beginning User.  I really like  it.  I bought the 
braille copy so I can read it while trying things on the computer.   I’ve 
learned a lot from this book.  It will be a great reference tool for me.  I 
don’’t know if we are talking about the same book or not.

Hi all.

 

In the past I've purchased 2 great books.  They may have been from either, the 
National Braille Press or American Printhouse for the Blind.  I can no longer 
rember.

 

 

The first book concerned my Iphone and was titled:

Getting Started with the iPhoneGetting Started with the iPhone
An Introduction for Blind Users
By Anna Dresner and Dean Martineau.

 

This was a great book and helped me a lot, back when I was using my Iphone 4s.

 

I've since upgraded to the Iphone 6s and was wondering if there was a more 
recent title by these two authours which would be more appropriate for the 
Iphone 6s and subsequent upgrades to the operating system, since then.

 

My second book, which I'm studying at the moment is also a fantastic book.  It 
concerns My Imac and my Macbook pro and is titled:

 

Janet Ingber - Everything You Need to Know to Use the Mac 

 

 

I'm loving this book so much that I hunger for more from this particular author.

 

If anyone knows a link where I can purchase such titles, as txt documents, I'd 
be delighted to know.

 

Thanks.

 

Very best wishes.

Andy.

getting a message from you! I'm thrilled to bits.


As I said in my message, I'm just loving your book.  It's helping me loads 
and without it, my macbook pro would still be sitting like my lovely 27in 
Imack, after almost 2 years.

It's very difficult for a Windows user to adjust to this new platform, but 
at times, it all sounds very simple, then I fall down a big hole.

I've been listening and working with your book since Friday afternoon and 
now it's nearly bed-time on sunday  night.

I've achieved loads and I some how no longer fear this buitiful macbook pro. 
My confidence is growing and I'm really feeling, for the first time in 
months, that I'm achieving something positive.

I don't fear the future any more, but my arthritic fingers are now screaming 
at me! Ha.

Thanks very much for the other book.  Both will keep me busy all winter, 
here in Scotland, where I don't get out too much over the winter months.

Thanks again.

Very best wishes.
