Hi...
If you are referring to iBooks on iOS based devices, no, they cannot be read on the Mac OS X. Two different operating systems.

Can I download Yosemite onto a thumb drive and install it on snow leopard later

Yes.
Create a bootable installer for OS X Mavericks or Yosemite - Apple Support
Open the Terminal in the Utilities folder. Copy and paste the following command line in its entirety into the Terminal window.
sudo /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app/Contents/Resources/createinstallmedia --volume /Volumes/Untitled --applicationpath /Applications/Install\ OS\ X\ Yosemite\ Developer\ Preview.app --nointeraction
Press RETURN, enter admin password (will not echo to the window) then press RETURN again.
You need to have the installer in your Applications folder or change the paths in the above command line.

Can you download apps like games to mac

How can I download games from the app store to my mac?

The word "App" means "computer program". You can download all sorts of Apps from the Mac App Store. There are games, but there is also so much more. Additionally, you are not limited to just purchasing from the Mac App store. You can download programs to your Mac from the internet too.
Just a quick note: The "Mac App Store" is not inside of iTunes. The Apps in iTunes are for iOS only and they won't run on your Mac.

I can not download mountain lion on my mac pro

I am trying to download lion from snow lepard . i only see lion icon and no download what do i do?

I'm not sure I understand what you have tried or what you are seeing. Mountain Lion can only be downloaded from the App Store (found in the Applications folder in Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later). Lion is no longer available in the App Store, unless you had already purchased it at some point before Mountain Lion was released, in which case you can re-download it from your purchase history.
First, check and see if your hardware meets the requirements for Mountain Lion:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If it does, you should be able to open the App Store, find Mountain Lion and install it from there. It will begin a 4+ GB download. When that download is complete, the installer should run automatically. If the download is interrupted, that will not happen. You can always re-start the download from the Purchases tab in the App Store.

Trying to download mountain lion but not impressed first time didnt load all and now trying to download again and it just freezes for days and never commits it in full can you help or is there any way to revers back to snow leopard

If you don't have a backup make one now of all your own data, you can just drag your Documents folder to another disk, assuming that is where you keep your own data. Then erase the disk with Disk Utility by booting up holding cmd-r. Choose Disk Utility > Erase tab from the screen that is presented. Then install from your SL disk.

Can you turn the power of a Mac Pro on using the wireless keyboard?

I have my Mac Pro tower at the other end of a table and I want to remotely turn it on with the Wireless keyboard or Trackpad.
I have it auto turning on in the Morning but would like to control it in case I shut down by accident from across the room.
Thanks!

The processors in the Mac Pro are socketed so they
can be replaced as long as the replacement processor
is compatible. You could for example get a 2 Ghz Mac
Pro and later replace the Xeon processors with the
3.0 Ghz processors.
That's great news! Thank you so much for your help. Does that mean im limited at 3.0ghz? Is there away to tell what the motherboard can max out to? Lets say I upgrade in three years and i want to put in a 3.5 or whatever may be available then. As long as its the same type of chip do i have that option? Or is 3.0 the max for the current intel motherboard?

Can you Combine Virtual Clusters from 2 Mac Pros?

Reading, searching support & Googling has not really answered this (perhaps dumb) question. Hopefully someone here would be kind enough to help.
I have a 8-core Mac Pro running FCS2 with a 4-instance Virtual Cluster. I just added another MP 8-core edit seat & setup another 4-instance Virtual Cluster. Each MP compresses great standalone. In the Submit dialogue both clusters are shown as separate choices. I want to be able to combine them into a mondo choice.
I understand how to distribute rendering between 2 machines but how do you distribute rendering to all 8 virtual cluster instances. Ticking share unmanaged resources simply shows each 4-cluster resource.
TIA

Page 27 shows an example of a part-time setup using every available workstation in the network (provided you have installed Apple Qmaster software on every Mac) One computer with FCS2/Compressor installed is the controller & all others are unmanaged nodes "with services only" as described on page-17.
Not sure if you're referencing what your current setup is in comparison to what I was pointing to in the manual, so forgive me, but I don't think you're following what I'm saying.
When you're creating true clusters with Qadministrator (meaning not Auto or QuickClusters), at least some of the services on the host machines must be managed. (And I point this out because you're using managed services on your machines)
So, using Qadministrator, you must create 2 cluster setups on each machine - one where the 8-core box uses only the resources on itself (replacing the Virtual Cluster) and another cluster where the 8-core machine uses its own Compressor resources as well the resources from the neighboring 8-core as well as your MacBookPro. (And yes, you can select to use only 2 of the 4 instances from the neighboring 8-core.) But each cluster would use itself (the 8-core box you're seating at) as the controller.
So is there a particular reason that you're using managed services? I've found Virtual Clusters to work - across machines, even - if you use unmanaged services (as Services Only in the QMaster preferences) then submit to This Computer in Compressor, with the Use Unmanaged Services on other Computers checked. But storage needs to be centralized (networked) in order for it to work reliably. Otherwise, the virtual cluster, in my experience, tends to determine that it'll take too long to copy material over and won't use the neighboring resources.
Or have you covered these bases already?

Can you use regular PCI cards in Mac Pro?

My G5 is getting a bit long in the tooth and I want to buy a Mac Pro. It says that it supports PCI Express cards, but I have several PCI cards in my PowerMac. Since I don't want to buy them all over again, I was wondering if they will work in the Mac Pro?

Can I upgrade my PowerBook G4 from Mac OS X Tiger to Snow Leopard?

I am running Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11 on my PowerBook G4. Can I upgrade to v10.6 Snow Leopard? Just asking because I never upgraded to v10.5 Leopard. Are there any adverse impacts of doing this for my PowerBook G4?

Hi jjhron;
As Stedman says you can't go to Snow Leopard with your G4 PowerBook but if your PB meets the specs for Leopard you can upgrade to that instead.

Mac Pro wont restart after Snow Leopard upgrade

Hello,
I have Mc Pro 3,1 8 cores with OS X 10.5.8. I upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.3 then download another upgrade to 10.6.3. The download was successful but I need to restart my Mac Pro but it won't restart. I'm seeing Apple Purple/Pink in desktop. I waited for an hour to seee if it will change but nothing Happen. Can anybody help.
Thank you
Arnold

My own method, is to keep the old system as is, your safety net, and to do a clean install and let Setup Assistant help afterward.
If or when you upgrade past Snow Leopard be sure to do so, leave everything behind, Lion and above do not include support for the PowerPC coded apps and would cause trouble.
I think we have reached point where only 10.9.5 and Yosemite get full security support, Lion and earlier are gone as far as support and Lion did introduce a security bug just squashed finally but only in those later versions.

Mac Pro 2010 triple boot (Snow Leopard + Windows + Yosemite)?

Hello All,
This is my first question here, I'm usually trying to find the answer myself, but this time I wasn't able to find anything clear enough to me. So I hope that someone can give me clear and easy to understand answer. I must also tell that my English isn't perfect, but should be more than good enough for communication. :-)
I have Mac Pro 2010, 4 core CPU 3.2 GHz, 6 GB RAM, ATI 5870.
HD Bay 1: WD Black 1 TB - Boot Snow Leopard 10.6.8
(Just to add: I am happy because when I bought my Mac it came with 10.6. I am happy with it, it's stable, and I want to keep it as it is)
HD Bay 2: WD Black 1 TB - Boot Windows 7 x64 (bootcamp, full drive)
(I am very happy how it works, so I want to keep it as is)
HD Bay 3: WD Green 2 TB - for all kind of data storage
HD Bay 4: Was empty until yesterday, but now I have another WD Black 1 TB to put it in - still not formatted.
I would like to install Yosemite on that new drive (first I was thinking about Maverick, but then I saw that some new applications will not run, like Final Cut Pro X, new MS Office, still in beta, plus I would like to use iMessage, etc.), and keep everything else as it is now - absolutelly untouched.
• Is it safe to do it, or I can make some mistake and lose Snow Leo and/or Windows?
• Is position of the drives important? Should I, for example, put new drive in a Bay 3, and move data disk to Bay 4, or it doesn't matter?
• When I download it from App Store, and when installation starts automatically, do I have an option to select to keep untouched everything I have now?
(I don't want even to collect any data from Snow Leopard, like mail settings, bookmarks, applications installed - absolutely nothing, it should run as a totally new comp and without any interaction with Snow Leopard, except ordinary hard disk access, like any other hard drive)
• Will my bootcamp drive be safe, I will still be able to boot from it?
I was also thinking about this:
I saw that it is possible to make bootable USB flash drive with installation. If I do that, and if I phisically unplug all other drives except a new one, then do installation, shut it down, and plug back all other drives, will everything work? Will I have triple boot when I press option key during start-up? Does all this makes sense at all to you?
Finally, does anyone have some experience with Mac Pro 2010 + ATI 5870 with Yosemite? Is it smooth, no problems with graphics or some other things?
I will really appreciate some answer about all this.
Cheers!

Some tips about Yosemite and Core Storage from MacIntouch Reader Reports on Yosemite:
Ric Ford [MacInTouch]
Yosemite's changes have led to questions and confusion about disk formatting and partitioning issues, backward compatibility, and dual-booting Mac OS X 10.6 and Yosemite. Below are a few notes on these issues from an email discussion (questions, tips and clarifications are welcome).
Core Storage changes debuted in OS X 10.7 Lion, with Apple's new FileVault 2 whole-disk encryption and hidden Recovery Partition.
Generally, running OS X 10.7 and up shouldn't corrupt or convert the HFS+ partitions used by pre-OS X 10.7 systems (still supported in later OS X versions). There are, however, a few special cases to beware, and this is where things get confusing. Here are some specific issues:
1) FileVault 2 encryption and "Fusion" drives both depend on Core Storage, so applying those to any partition will render it inaccessible by pre-OS X 10.7 systems.
2) Yosemite's installation process silently converts a partition to Core Storage, incompatible with Mac OS X 10.6 and earlier. Ars Technica's review describes this issue.
3) Running Disk Utility's "repair" function in Yosemite against a Mac OS X 10.6 (HFS+) partition has caused problems in some cases, such as making the Mac OS X 10.6 partition unbootable.
(A search for Core Storage on MacInTouch will turn up more discussion and tips.)

Mac Pro Nvidia 8800GT and snow leopard 10.6.4 problems

I have a Mac pro 1.1 with a Nvidia 8800GT and I have having a lot of problems since update to snow leopard latest release. My computer start to show lines and giggle with lines static and then freeze, it make so bad that you can't do anything even restart the computer does not solve the problem. I have reset the pram and all possible solution available. Maybe the video card is going to die soon?

My MacPro 3.1 with Nvidia 8800 Gt is also not HP.
Initially I was getting some video glitches just after start up but then the machine would settle down and run for the session.
about a week ago the situation got increasingly worse so that from last Sat morning its will not even boot up 4 times out of 5 tries.
Gets to the apple symbol then freezes
I've tried booting from the snow leopard install disc but even then its freezes and I see many video artifacts.
I've ordered a ATi Radeon 4870 to replace the graphics card as I thought that might be the issue. The 8800 GT was full of fluff I feared it had cooked itself this summer.
But now I'm concerned from reading several forum topics that a recent OSX update has effectively killed machines with the 8800 Gt card.
I can't really operate fully without my macpro as that where most of the software is held. CS5 master suite etc
My business partner did say just get another machine but i'm not happy to go down that route just yet. Yes of course a 12 core is tempting but at ££££.££ cost.
lucky I have my Macbook pro to use otehrwise i'd be
