Maintain, troubleshoot, and speed up your Mac! Version 1.0, published June 26, 2024 Macs are generally quite reliable computers, but things still can and do go wrong. When you encounter an error message, an ornery app, or other unwanted behavior, don't panic. Take a deep breath and turn to the expert advice in Take Control of Solving Mac Problems. This book—which replaces, updates, and extends Joe's earlier books Take Control of Maintaining Your Mac, Take Control of Troubleshooting Your Mac, and Take Control of Speeding Up Your Mac—is a complete guide to both preventing and solving Mac problems. You'll learn how to think like a technician, use powerful tools and techniques, and cope with surprises. The book covers three distinct areas. Maintain Your Mac Perform preventive maintenance steps that will reduce the likelihood of problems—and make it easier to recover if something does go wrong: • Make sure macOS and other software is up to date. • Free up disk space and reduce clutter. • Learn about backups, creating a troubleshooting account, and other measures to take before disaster strikes. • Explore third-party maintenance apps that may simplify common operations. • Follow a simple, ongoing maintenance routine. Troubleshoot Mac Problems The heart of the book is about diagnosing problems and finding solutions: • Learn 14 useful troubleshooting techniques that you can apply to a wide range of issues. • Find ready-to-use solutions to 25 common Mac problems. • Discover how to approach novel or unusual problems without obvious remedies. • Understand the best (and worst) ways to search for help online. • Figure out when it's time to seek professional help, and where to find it. Speed Up a Slow Mac Learn what to do if individual apps bog down or your entire system seems sluggish: • Find out what to do if web browsing is unusually slow. • Get to know Activity Monitor to find out what's going on under your Mac's hood. • Learn ways to reduce CPU and RAM usage. • Find memory leaks and tame background processes. • Determine your options for hardware upgrades when software fixes aren't enough. That's just a taste of the extensive material in this detailed, 188-page book. It's designed for Macs running macOS 11 Big Sur or later, including macOS 12 Monterey, macOS 13 Ventura, macOS 14 Sonoma, and macOS 15 Sequoia. The following Mac models are at least capable of running a supported version of macOS: • iMac (mid 2014 or later) • iMac Pro • Mac mini (late 2014 or later) • Mac Pro (late 2013 or later) • Mac Studio • MacBook (2015) • MacBook Air (2013 or later) • MacBook Pro (late 2013 or later) In other words, any Mac released in 2014 or later, plus the 2013 models of the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and Mac Pro.

People use lots of water for drinking, cooking and washing, but significantly more for producing things such as food, paper and cotton clothes. The water footprint is an indicator of water use that looks at both direct and indirect water use of a consumer or producer. Indirect use refers to the 'virtual water' embedded in tradable goods and commodities, such as cereals, sugar or cotton. The water footprint of an individual, community or business is defined as the total volume of freshwater that is used to produce the goods and services consumed by the individual or community or produced by the business. This book offers a complete and up-to-date overview of the global standard on water footprint assessment as developed by the Water Footprint Network. More specifically it: o Provides a comprehensive set of methods for water footprint assessment o Shows how water footprints can be calculated for individual processes and products, as well as for consumers, nations and businesses o Contains detailed worked examples of how to calculate green, blue and grey water footprints o Describes how to assess the sustainability of the aggregated water footprint within a river basin or the water footprint of a specific product o Includes an extensive library of possible measures that can contribute to water footprint reduction

An introduction to the engineering principles of embedded systems, with a focus on modeling, design, and analysis of cyber-physical systems. The most visible use of computers and software is processing information for human consumption. The vast majority of computers in use, however, are much less visible. They run the engine, brakes, seatbelts, airbag, and audio system in your car. They digitally encode your voice and construct a radio signal to send it from your cell phone to a base station. They command robots on a factory floor, power generation in a power plant, processes in a chemical plant, and traffic lights in a city. These less visible computers are called embedded systems, and the software they run is called embedded software. The principal challenges in designing and analyzing embedded systems stem from their interaction with physical processes. This book takes a cyber-physical approach to embedded systems, introducing the engineering concepts underlying embedded systems as a technology and as a subject of study. The focus is on modeling, design, and analysis of cyber-physical systems, which integrate computation, networking, and physical processes. The second edition offers two new chapters, several new exercises, and other improvements. The book can be used as a textbook at the advanced undergraduate or introductory graduate level and as a professional reference for practicing engineers and computer scientists. Readers should have some familiarity with machine structures, computer programming, basic discrete mathematics and algorithms, and signals and systems.
