boots all Macs delivered since 2000. \u00a0It used to be that Mac users were their own non-official support helpdesk but with all of the technological advances and complexity behind this elegant OS, some demystifying is due.<\/p>\n<p>Some concepts have gone, others were\u00a0replaced but the functional interface remains quite the same as back in 2000. \u00a0What happened with your old software and how to I get new ones installed, how do I share folders with my colleagues? \u00a0How do I secure my Mac to lessen intrusion and maintenance? \u00a0How does it integrate with my company&#8217;s network and services? \u00a0We try to clear all of this and more.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Prerequisite\"><\/span>Prerequisite<span
