How can I better use my mac to link it with school work?

I would like to take full advatage of my mac, right now it just seems like I am using it for the internet and word.

Notability is a good app but syncing its work to your Mac is tedious. I believe you can only export it as a PDF and email it to yourself. Then, you can use Preview on your Mac to edit the work, but this is not an ideal solution. If you don't want to lose your Notability work, click its Share icon and send them as emails to yourself, or use Dropbox.
if you have both an iPad and a Mac, you're much better off using Pages or any other iWork app. They are designed to seamlessly integrate your work on both platforms. Use Notes for text; it works the same way. You already have Notes on your iPad as well as your Mac.
I don't recommend Google Drive or Google anything for that matter. Google Drive has had problems with Mavericks and I don't know if Google has fixed them yet. From Apple's presentation yesterday, they're planning on much more integration between Macs and iOS devices including a new service called iCloud Drive.
Google Drive, Dropbox and similar programs are quickly going to be left behind, along with all the problems associated with using them.

Can. I use my MAC Mini in conjunction with my iMac?

Can I use my MAC Mini in conjunction with my iMAC? I can not upgrade the OS of the iMAC due to software that I need and Lion does not support it.
If I could bounce back an forth or use the software from the MAC Mini with the iMAC, this would solve my dilemma.

Before I buy a networked drive can I use the airport to connect with an external
USB drive and set both macs use the drive as a time machine
Can you hook this up? Sure.
Is is supported by Apple? No.
Some users report that this seems to work when they try it.
Others....like me....have corruption problems anywhere from a few days to a few months after I set up a test....which I do whenever a new version of firmware or a new operating system becomes available.
We cannot predict your results, so if you decide to try this, and your backups are valuable, you might want to have a secondary backup plan in place as well....just in case.

How can I better use multiple displays as if they were multiple computers?

In Mavericks I read online that multiple display support is the best it's ever been, but it's still very frustrating. Is there any way to get the "multi displays are different spaces" option to act more as it promises? Photoshop, for instance, refuses to let me move all of its control windows to my calibrated display, forcing me to go back and forth between my Eizo and internal monitors; one for its colors and the other for the tool pallates.
I want to use my MacBook display just for email and such, so I don't want to close the lid, but I wish it could be really segrigated. The experience I'm looking for is sort of like 2 computers with a shared keyboard and mouse. One dock per display is desprately needed. Can that be done?
Also allowing each display to have one applicatioin currently in front when multiple input devices are present would be greatly appreciated. I could then keep one keyboard and tablet in front of the Eizo and use the internal for use on the Macbook - if the OS could learn my setup it could really be the best of the benefits of having 2 computers and just one. Shared Clipboard and one Space colaborating seamlessly with another, while having the abillity to work entirely within one space and then move to the other while waiting for a command to finish executing, or to go back to the file system to open more work.
This is so close to perfect but it has a few really frustrating limitations. Any advice?
thank you

data.
At least your query seems to get data where MODIFIED_BY IS NULL, doesn't it?
So if the reccount is>0 there is a reason to inform your employees.

How can my daughter, using her mac, get access to a movie I made and stored on my mac itunes library. Can cloud help?

My daugter in in Florida and I am in Japan. Is it possible to place a video that I made (currently in my itunes library) on the cloud and then have her access the cloud and download the movie.
thank you - Tony

Not really. The easiest way is to get free Dropbox accounts and place the file there for her to pick up.

How can i share folders at Mac mini late 2009 with Apple Tv 3?

I'm using Mac mini 2009 and I can't share any folder with Apple tv 3...anyone managed to get a way to do so, so far?

I have a WLAN at home conneting Mac mini (late 2009), PS3 slim and xbox 360 in the living room and I would love to share whats on the Mac mini with AT3 in the guest room upstairs, physically it wont be possible to control both screens at the same times. The files I have are on external HD connected via firewire + USB to Mac mini and they are a mix of avi, mp4, mpeg etc. I'm talking about 3 TB of movies and series (its still legal here in Dubai to download ;-)). starting to convert such amount of files its not an option. AirParrot is a good option when I have media stored on my MacBook pro and would like to play it no AT3 but I used Beamer it works great for such function.
any ideas folks ?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
OS X can't write in NTFS disks. If you want to write in NTFS drives, you have to use a third-party app like Paragon for NTFS, being this application the best one to write in those disks.
Another option is to format the external disk in FAT32 or exFAT on a PC, so you will be able to read and write in Macs and PCs without having to use third-party apps. Do it on a PC and copy the files of your external drive to the internal disk first

What does this mean and why? How to fix?Mac OS X Version 10.8.56.6 (1510/1508). It can't be used on Mac OS X Version 10.8.5 (Build 12F37).

The build I have is the released build of Mail. I reinstalled it as directed and it didn't help. That indicates that the problem is with my version of OS X.
The build you have is the released build of 10.8.5. You reinstalled it as directed and it didn't help. That indicates it is a problem with your version of Mail.
The above are examples of flawed logic.
Seriously now. Since you obviously don't know what a Combo Update is, I will tell you. A Combo Update is short for a COMBINATION of Updates. That means that there is MORE THAN ONE update in a Combo Update. It is, therefore, quite proper to speak of "one of the Combo Updates". For people whose first language is not English and are not familiar with its subtle nuances, perhaps I should have said "One of the updates contained within the Combo Update was"
"There aren't "versions" of the combo update, unless Apple releases a revision"?
This is plain silly. It means "There aren't versions unless there are"
Also I didn't use the word "version". See above for the explanation of what I DID say.
Are you one of those TROLLS I keep hearing about?
I hope you got a lot of phoney Help points for not actually helping.
Don't bother replying, I won't come back to this thread, so I wont see it. Of course you'll get another phoney Help point, so I suppose you will, but I'll never know. Doesn't that mess with your head?
Bye Bye
What an attitude you have.
Erase your drive and reinstall correctly, stop messing about with incremental patches. The routine you need is BERR (backup, erase, reinstall, restore) or just stay as yu are, it is entirely up to you.

I have a newer MacBook Pro with an AMD processor. It is my understanding that Parallels can only be used on Mac's with Intel Processors. Is that true and if so does anyone have recommendations about how to have a windows side to my Mac

Then it either is a pirate clone or you are misinformed.
Apple Computer has never used AMD processors in its products.
However, the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) is a Radeon unit, which is an AMD subsidiary. Parallels, VMWare, VirtualBox will all work fine with the Intel Core i7 or i5 CPU that powers the Mac, and use the AMD Radeon GPU that drives the displays.

How can I control my my mac mini with my macbook air (no wifi)?

How can I control my my mac mini with my macbook air (no wifi)? Also...what is the best method (less lag) for screen sharing?
I own a mac mini Quad Server 2.0 i7 and I use it for audio production. It's great but I need to travel with it. I was hoping some form of screen sharing could be useful using the macbook air to control the mac mini. Therefore, I'd be using the stronger processor of the mac mini but would still be using the keyboard and trackpad from the air.
My two problems:
1. I can't depend on wifi to make this happen. Wifi is not always available when travleing. What would be the best way to configure a LAN connection?
2. The less lag the better for screen sharing. Which apps are fastest?
Thanks in advance.

Both of your devices have WiFi built in. Here is Apple Support's solution:

I'm not nearly ready to buy a new computer. How can I keep using Firefox 16?

Hi,
I have an I-MAC 10.5.8 and am not about to purchase a new computer anytime soon. How can I keep using Firefox 16?

You asked,
Is Firefox 16 still secure for me to use?
Right now Firefox 16 has the latest security fixes but it won't get future fixes. ''[https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2012/10/04/we-bid-you-adieu-spotted-cat/ On November 20th, Firefox will end support for users operating Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard).

When will Firefox 17 be launched?
November 20th, [https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar according to the release calendar].
And if I upgrade my Mac to Lion software (which I'm planning to do, but not immediately), will that work?
Yes. The [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/17.0/system-requirements/ Firefox 17 system requirements] listed for Mac include OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), OS X 10.7 (Lion) and OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion).

How can I stop using my primary Apple ID (Gmail) but leave my secondary Apple ID (icloud) as primary ond only ONE?

Good afternoon friends.
Please help me and tell how can I stop using my primary Apple ID (Gmail) but leave my secondary Apple ID (icloud) as primary ond only ONE?
I started using Apple ID in 2011 when iCloud was not exist and was forced to use non-apple e-mail adress as primary ID.
So I used GMail mailbox.
When iCloud was started I created my account but unfortunatelly can't remove this Gmail address from my Apple ID and replace it with icloud mail address.
I was VERY dissapointed because I don't want to use "outside" mailbox to get letters from Apple and ny ID.
In fact I see the Apple old users and fans discrimination.
When creating new user accounts are free to create a box on the iCloud mail and use it as a primary ID, and the only ONE.
At the same time the old user is obliged to keep third-party mail box like Gmail etc. as the primary and can not get such an opportunity, as a new user
This is extremely inconvenient and a VERY strange logical.
For example, now I want to stop using this mailbox on Gmail but I can not do that because in this case I lose access to my ID, or run the risk that someone in the future will create a box with the same name on Gmail (when name will be free and available) and will automatically get access to my accounts on Apple and to my Apple ID.
Now, to avoid this, your team, I offer the only way out: ID, create anew.
Of course it's possible, but then:
- I lose all my purchases for 3 years and will be forced to make them again and pay money for the second time for my purchases
- Lose access to the familiar iCloud e-mail address who now serves as secondary ID because this e-mail address is almost no longer available and will never be released in future.
And now answer me for ONLY TWO questions:
- WHERE IS LOGIC?
- WHAT ABOUT TO BE FRIENDLY FOR YOUR USERS AND FANS?
Thank you!
Hopefully for your GOOD answers.

You cannot make your @icloud.com address the login address for the ID. However you can change your ID, currently a Gmail one, to any other functioning non-Apple email address. The Gmail address would then no longer access your account, and so even if someone were to obtain posession of it (is that even possible) it wouldn't allow them to get into your account.
If you want to change your ID to another email address please follow the procedure outlined below, particularly noting the first step.
Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
Create a new email address, for example at Yahoo or Gmail, or anywhere convenient (or you can use an existing address as long as it has never been associated with an Apple ID).
Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
Where it says 'Apple ID and primary email address' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
Enter your new address and click 'Save changes'.
Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.
