Can I use this to have someone in another state do my QuickBooks input?
Hi examinernews,
After reading your post it seems you would like the ability to allow a remote user to control your Mac. That can be done by using Screen Sharing, a feature of your Mac. I have linked to an article which explains how to use it:
OS X Mavericks: Share your screen
You can let others view your computer screen on their own Mac. While your screen is being shared, the user of the other Mac sees what’s on your screen and can open, move, and close files and windows, open apps, and even restart your Mac.
Open Sharing preferences if it isn’t already open (choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Sharing).
Select the Screen Sharing checkbox.If Remote Management is selected, you must deselect it before you can select Screen Sharing.
To specify who can share your screen, select one of the following:
Option
Description
All users:
Anyone with a user account on your Mac can share your screen.
Only these users:
Screen sharing is restricted to specific users.
If you selected “Only these users,” click Add (+) at the bottom of the Users list, then do one of the following:
Select a user from Users & Groups, which includes all the users of your Mac.
Select a user from Network Users or Network Groups, which includes everyone on your network.
To let others share your screen without having a user account on your Mac, click Computer Settings, then select one or both of the following:
Option
Description
Anyone may request permission to control screen:
When other computer users begin screen sharing your Mac, they can ask for permission instead of entering a user name and password.
VNC viewers may control screen with password:
Other users can share your screen using a VNC viewer app—on iPad or a Windows PC, for example—by entering the password you specify here.
If this computer’s screen is shared only by other OS X users, turn off these options and add accounts for the other users.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Bobby_D

New iMac user here, I recently bought a new iMac and Time capsule and have the whole network up and running now. I have connected another external HD to the time capsule as well and have a total of 3 TB of storage connected wireless to my new iMac. My question is can I use this location as the default location for iTunes? I doubt I am gonna run out of room considering the iMac has 1 TB of storage already, but I'd prefer to keep my movies and music off the Mac to keep it running smoothly. If this is possibly, I'd like to do this with iPhoto as well.
I would advise against placing your iTunes library on a Time Capsule.
The Time Capsule is designed as a backup device and not for wireless streaming of video.
Before you do anything more, can I suggest you put into place a reliable, redundant backup strategy.
Unless you are prepared to risk loss of your iTunes library due to a hard drive failure, I would not put iTunes on the Time Capsule.
Leave your iTunes library on your iMac until such time as your internal drive is full. Backup to Time Capsule using Time Machine and create a clone of your internal iMac HD to your external drive.
That's my 2 cents worth. Others may have a different opinion. -
I have a dollar amount balance on my itunes account... can i use this to purchase apps for my MacBook Pro?
You should be able to. As long as you are signed in to the same AppleID that has an available balance. The services are linked.

I just purchased a 3TB Time Capsule. I live in Italy and have 220V power. The Time Capsule is rated for that, but the cord says 125V. Can I use this cord with an adapter, or do I need to buy a new cord at an Italian store?
Due to the kind of plug used the US power cord is rated at the 125v value.. and legally we cannot advise you to use on higher voltages.. although I have never had issues in Australia.. 240v.
But adapters from your Euro power plug to US are generally ugly .. unsightly things.. and often sit high above the socket and are none too stable.. I agree with Bob.. just go out and buy a standard figure 8 power cord.. check with Apple in Italy for a white one.. if you are going to have it on show.. black are far more common. Or even check ebay for a standard power Apple power cord as a number of items they sell use the figure8 socket. -
my iPhoto icon has a cross over it, when i open it, it You have “iPhoto” 9.2.1. you can't use this with this version of OSX? it used to work ?what's gone wrong?
iPhoto 9.2.3 is incompatible with MacOS 10.9.3 Mavericks. If you are running Mavericks on your system you need to update iPhoto to 9.5.1. Only, the problem is, that this version is no longer available at the App Store.
The easiest way to get a compatible iPhoto version in that case would be to upgrade to Yosemite, MacOS X 10.10, and then download the most recent iPhoto version from the AppStore, iiPhoto 9.6, like LarryHN suggested.
If you cannot download iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.6 post back. -
When I try to install Lion it tell's me "You can't use this version of the application install mac os x Lion with this version of Mac os X" even though I have the latest update 10.5.8 of Mac os X?
The install icon has this sign on itmoose0422 wrote:
You can't install Lion over Leopard. To install Lion, a requirement is Snow Leopard. So you can either upgrade to Snow Leopard first or you can make a bootable Lion install disc and use that to wipe your hard drive and install a fresh copy of Lion.
So to make a disk would require you to purchase Snow Leopard and upgrade to 10.6.8 so you can use the App Store, unless you have access to another computer to download it from with your Apple ID. Remember it is about a 3.4GB download.

I have a .mac email address, can i use this as a regular email address?
I have a .mac email address which i set up for ichat (ages ago) how can i use this as a regular email address in an email client? Is there SMTP/POP details?
With the introduction of iCloud, Apple has discontinued its "@mac.com" addresses support and has switched to Users using "@me.com" suffixes. To utilize this you will need to setup an iCloud account with a new Apple ID. And Apple discontinued iChat and has switched to Messages.app, using Apple ID's.
Hope this helps -

I have an Ipad with Verizon Wi Fi + Cellular. Can I use this as my sole internet provider for this device?
If you choose but you need to be careful with your data plan and make sure you use wifi at home. This approach will make you pad a sole source so others in tying household will need to use your device. It's really your call.
