'Your Page Up and Page Down keys let you scroll up and down, one screen at a time, without having to take your hands off the keyboard. The Home and End keys are generally useful for jumping directly to the top or bottom of your document ' However, on myMacBook Air, these keys do not exist.
It would be nice to describe their kbd equivalents: Home: fn+left arrow End: fn+right arrow Pg Up: fn+up arrow (mentioned, p. 232) Pg Dwn: fn+down arrow as well as beginning of line: Control-a end of line: Control-e David Biesack Oct 25, 2012 Mobi Page 43-47 throughout. 'In all cases, the backup disk must be bigger than the drive you're backing up (preferably much bigger).'
This should read 'bigger than the used amount of the drive you're backing up'. For example, I have a 1 TB drive of which about 75 GB is used, so my backup disk needs to be at least 75 GB. Apple does recommend that the backup be at least the capacity of the drive being backed up (1 TB in my case), but that's not a requirement.

The text and figure 9-6 refer to a range of desktop pictures from Apple (Nature, Plants, Art etc.), but OS X Lion as installed on new macs seems to have dropped those and you only get the 'Desktop Pictures' folder (unless you upgrade from Snow Leopard etc. In which case they are retained from the previous version). At least, that is what I have, and hunting around the internet it seems to be a Lion change, rather than an error. If there is a way to add them, or a website to get the old ones from, that would be a useful edit to the next edition (probably have to wait for Mountain Lion now, I guess).

Errata Table For Mac Os
There is no discussion that I could find of the function and settings in the System Preferences. Energy Saver when a UPS Back-system (such as an APC Back-UPS CS 350 - in my case) is connected via USB to the Mac (Mac mini mid 2011 - in my case). APC has not updated it's own driver for several years.
I searched and searched through the Mac OS X Lion MM and over the web finding little information, some horror stories, and eventually a post on a forum that Apple has been writing there own drivers starting with Snow Leopard. Sure enough, when I went to System Preferences. Energy Saver, I found that the UPS was recognized and was able to set reasonable functionality and controls using the dialog windows that were presented. In my web search, I found posts indicating to stay away from using any Sleep function when on UPS battery power and recommended setting the Sleep function to Never when on battery power.
Errata Table For Macbook Pro
This whole subject should be added to Errata and future editions after investigation of the reliability of the software, probably testing different Macs. This omission may be in other versions, I don't know, I only have the First Edition printed edition. It is also worth checking if the Snow Leopard MM has discussed this.
It would be logical to assume that this omission may also be there. If this information is in the MM, then the problem is the index, I looked for UPS functionality info and could find nothing. Thanks for such great books, I am a long time repeat buyer of MM books.

I wanted to do a clean install after buying a new MacBook Pro with Lion already installed because I transferred all my old stuff from an external drive with my old system OS X 10.6 Time Machine data and didn't like the results.
I went to the App Store to download Lion, but did not have the problem mentioned in paragraph 5. I wanted to save a copy of the Lion installer program as suggested in paragraphs 3 and 4, but the program gives you no chance to stop the install before completing and erasing itself.
In trying to stop the install right after the download I powered down. Whenever I powered up to look at what I had on my hard drive, the install would continue. So I connected my MacBook Pro to my old Mac in Target disk mode to look at the MacBook hard drive. I could not find 'Install Mac OS X Lion'.
But I did find folder 'Mac OS X Install Data' with many files including 'InstallESD.dmg' as mentioned on p.842 under Phase 2: Build Your Installer Paragraphs 4-5. However, following these instructions produced a flash drive that caused errors when using it to Restore to an erased internal hard drive. I still have no Lion Install disk. Please correct p. 842 to cover this activity.
Please recommend avoiding the Setup Assistant until backing up a copy of installed Lion to use in case you want to 'undo' the results of Setup Assistant. Cherrypi3 Jul 31, 2012 PDF Page 883 whole page.
