Given the both have mini DVIs.I want to know if it's possible and what I need to buy?

No, it is not. You need a 2010 iMac or later.

longer How do I switch computers for syncing?

The absolute best way to do this is to transfer your iTunes library from the old computer to the new one. You can find a numbr of ways to do that here.

If you want to spend the money for a computer application that will let you transfer all of the content from the iPad to iTunes - look at
Touchcopy
However, I have posted this many times over the past few months. If you follow these instructions you should be fine. This will transfer the purchased content from the iPad into iTunes on the Mac. You will still want to get your photo library and any CD's that you imported into iTunes on the new Mac. That is why transferring the iTunes library to the new Mac is the best way to go.
When you set up the new Mac - if you can import or migrate all of the PC content onto the Mac - this will all be a non issue, but I'm not sure how to bring all of your PC content onto the Mac. Going from an old Mac to a new Mac was a breeze, but I know nothing about transferring the content from a Windows PC.
The 3 basic things to remember - authorize the computer, (Launch iTunes on your computer and go to Store>Authorize this Computer) transfer purchased content and backup.
The following was copied from this thread. This is essentially what you want to accomplish.

1) Without connecting your iPad to your Mac, start iTunes. Click on iTunes. Click on Preferences. Click on Devices. Check the box next to "Prevent your iPod etc. from automatically syncing." Click OK.
2) Now connect your iPad to your Mac and start iTunes.
3) When iTunes starts, right click on your iPad under Devices in the left column. Select Transfer purchases etc.
4) After it finishes transferring all your apps to your new laptop, right click on your iPad and select Backup your iPad.
5) After it finishes backing up your iPad, right click on your iPad and select Restore etc.
6) After it finishes restoring, left click on your iPad , then click on the Apps tab on top, and check the box next to Sync Apps, then click on Apply below.
If everything on your iPad looks good after the sync, go back and click on iTunes / Preferences / Devices and UN-check the box next to Prevent your iPod etc. The only other thing you may want to check is if your contacts, bookmarks, etc. are syncing correctly now. If not, go to the Info tab after connecting and make sure you indicate which features you want to sync with what sources.
Read this thread and the support links as well. There are apps that you can purchase that will allow you to transfer photos from the iPad to your PC. Look at Photo Transfer App in the App store and you can search for others as well.

This support site will help you with transferring iTunes music to your new computer - if you have an iTunes library of music on another computer or hard drive.

The worst case scenario is that you can download all of your apps again if needed - but you will not retain the data or app settings - but it is always an option if everything else fails - but it won't fail!

HT5621 I have changed my apple ID....now how do I change the apple ID on my Ipad that it wants to use for login...its greyed out so impossible to change..

I have changed my Apple ID...now how do I change the default apple ID on my Ipad....the apple ID is greyed out so cant change it...

Tap on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap 'sign out' on the popup and then log back in with the updated version - if that is also greyed out then check to see if you currently have Settings > General > Restrictions > Accounts (under the 'allow changes' heading) set to 'Don't Allow Changes'

HT5868 So how do I "untrust" a trusted computer that I accidentally trusted but still want to use for charging?

I see that "Trust" a computer on iOS7 is indefinite (learned). How do I undo that on a computer that I want to use for charging but do not want to trust?

Open iTunes, select iTunes Store from the sidebar, click on the Support link under Quick Links. Post an email explaining the situation to seek assistance.

HT204053 I have an apple ID that I want to use it for icloud, but when I Set it, i got below message

I have an apple ID that I want to use it for icloud, but when I Set it, i got below message
I could requires an apple id that Is an email address ( [email protected] address )
Please help me
<Email Edited by Host>

Your gmail address is still your apple id. Just when you activate your mail and notes, it asks you to create icloud e-mail, which is completely separate and allows you to have one more e-mail address. Just some extra benefit, you don't have to pay for, but useful to save your notes and send e-mail or two if Google server goes down.

I cannot load Maverick on my iMac HD. It reports that my HD is used for Time Machine backups and will not load to that drive. I do not use this drive for backups. Help.

I cannot load Maverick on my iMac HD. It reports that my HD is used for Time Machine backups and will not load to that drive. I do not use this drive for backups. I use an external 1 TB WD My Book for backups as well as Super Duper Backups. Can anyone offer advice. Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You have got the "Backups.backupdb" folder in the root level of your hard drive. This is the folder used by Time Machine to save backups to, and the OS X Mavericks installer thought that your hard drive is being used to store Time Machine backups
To fix this, open a Finder window, select the Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type:
Then, delete "Backups.backupdb" and empty the Trash. Finally, open the Mavericks installer from the Applications folder and follow the steps

In the garage I have a Netgear Router. it is connected by a ethernet cable, I have a 1tb drive that I want to use there. On the drive there is only a USB port. on the Netgear there is only ethernet ports. is there an adapter that will work for that?

It's not that simple. You need a "smart" device to connect a hard drive to, like a Time Capsule, or another computer, or an Airport Extreme/Express that was made to share a drive, or some other brand router that has a USB port for sharing a drive, etc.

I have an old aol email that I want to use as my iCloud email but MyAppleID won't accept it because it is already in use by Apple. May have been for my ibook but not sure.

Go to https://appleid.apple.com and sign into manage your apple id with any apple ids you have access to and see if you're account is either an alternate email address or a rescue address. If it is, remove it. Have family members or friends check theirs, if they have apple ids, just in case.
If that fails...

You'll need to speak to someone in account security. They'll have to go through a verification process with you, in order to reveal information. If you fail that process, they will be able to tell you nothing.

When I open iPhoto its asks me what photo library I want to use. I already have a photo library that i've been using for 2 years, where did it go? and why am I being asked now to choose a library or "create new" what happened to all my photos?

When I open iPhoto it asks me to choose a photo library. I already have a libary with photos and events in it that I've been using for 2 years. Where did it go? What happened to all my photos

We have no way of knowing what goes on on your machine. All we can tell is that your iPhoto library is missing and iPhoto can't find it. If you can't find then I the only thing you can do is restore from your Back Up.

I have an Apple pro wired keyboard that I want to use with a Windows PC. It seems to recognize it through plug

I have an Apple pro wired keyboard that I want to use with a Windows PC. It seems to recognize it through plug & play, but stops working after a few minutes. Does anyone know of a fix to this situation?

Hi,
Could you explain that again using different words ?
I am not clear on what it is that you want to do.
What are you trying to sync ?
Contacts ?
Emails ?
Other info ?
If it is Mail who do you normally get it and what applications are you using ?
People also might want to know if it is a POP or IMAP account before they can help.

I have Movies on my iMac that I want to share with Apple TV. How do I do that without also having them synch to my iPhone. The movies exceed the capacity of the iPhone.

I have Movies on my iMac that I want to share with Apple TV. I have no problem getting the movies to show up and play on Apple TV. However, when I synch my iPhone to to my iMac all of the movies try to synch to the iPhone and this exceeds the available capacity (32) of the iPhone. So the question is, how do I make the movies available on Apple TV but not synch to my iPhone?

I looked around some more on my iPhone and did find a video app. So all is well.
Thanks so much for your help!!
