I want to use my Mac as a player and download cds to my ipad. How do I get this to work ?

I want to use my MAC strickly as a player and download cds to my ipad. I don't always have connectivity so it would be nice to have some stored tunes. How do I do it ? Thanks, Tombo1

Your question is a little bit confusing to me. If you have music on the Mac that you want to transfer to the iPad, you have to import the music into iTunes first. You can read about that process here.

Then you have to sync the music to the iPad. You do not Internet connectivity to sync the iPad if you use the cable and connect the device to the Mac that way. You can read this for an overview about syncing.

and this as well for Mac.

I was recently prompted to update iPhoto and make changes to the library. I did it but it keeps hanging up in step 5 or 6 and won't complete the cycle. I have used force quit, rebooted and started again several times. How do i get this to work?

Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
If that fails:
Restore from your back up, repair the Library and try again.

Formatting will erase the drive.
You need to copy the photo's to either your old computer, the Mac Mini or to a new external drive and then decide what to do with your existing external drive.
For example: You could use one External drive for Photo's and one external drive for Time Machine to backup both your Mac Mini and the Photo drive.

Simple question: I want to use iCloud as a back up disk for my documents folder. How can I do this? If I cannot do this, why am I paying for access to "the cloud?"

iCloud does not provide general file storage or backup, so you cannot back up your Documents folder using it. You will need to find a third-party alternative - this page examines some options (some are free):

iCloud at basic level, with 5GB is storage, is free: you only pay anything if you want to increase the storage space.

If you don't have original install disks for your Mac, you can order replacements disks directly from Apple at a nominal cost. The original install DVDs are required to reset the password.
If you have no data on your drive that you want to keep, you can boot up from the OSX Snow Leopard disk and install OSX SL.
Insert the Snow Leopard DVD and hold the C key during startup. The Mac should boot from the CD/DVD drive into the installer.
Follow the prompts, erase the disk and install OSX Snow Leopard.

I am using Numbers on my iPhone5 and cannot get the app to do a simple (SUM) calculation. It shows the formula correctly in the cell, but all I get for my long list of numbers to add is 0. How can I get this to work?

Oaky, at least we got that far. Next step is to determine if all those "numbers" are really numbers. Changing the format to "number" doesn't necessarily change the string to a number. The string has to be in the form of a number. Some may appear to you and me as numbers but will not turn into "numbers" when you change the formatting from Text to Number. Unless you've manually formatted the cells to be right justified, one way to tell if it is text or a number is the justification. Text will be justified to the left, numbers will be justified to the right.
Here are some that will remain as strings:
+123
123 with a space after it.
.123

Reader for Mac 10.8.5. Downloading message is in chinese How do I stop this? Am I a victim of an Safari or Adobe vulnerability?

Don't know about downloading message. There seems to be a strange error in something which gives you a message in Japanese when trying to view a PDF from Safari.
The message means "To view this file, first launch (open, start) Adobe Reader (the app, from Applications) and accept the license agreement, then quit".

Was using flags in the split view applying flags to images regardless of selection. Flag would appear under cursor. Suddenly they now are only visible when and in the large window. How do I get this capability back. It is very useful.

I have been using flags conveniently when using the split view flagfs would appear under the cursor in the filmstrip view. Now they only are visible when a single image is selected and not in the film strip. This very convenient feature has suddenly and unexplanedly been lost. How do I get it back?

How are your metadata settings? For me the flags are still showing. Perhaps you have disabled the flags for the Browser view. Edit your Metadata Presets for the Browser:
Enable "Show Metadata" for the Browser and Viewer, and then click "Edit" and eanble the flag for all Metadata views.
For the Browser you need to edit the "Grid View" settings, expanded and Basic:

I wanted to watch tv on demands but says this is not HTML5 delivery so how can I get this to work on ipad so I can catch up my tv program any help?

How can I get tv on demands working on my iPad as wanted to watch my program but it says HTML5 not supported on this, so any ideas that can help?

HTML5 is supported on the iPad but I assume that the site that you are going to doesn't yet support it. Does the site have it's own app - here in the UK the TV channels have their own apps, plus there are apps such as TVCatchup.

I have a Max OS X 10.6.8 and the only has pages installed. I have been a mac consumer for many moons and I still like Appleworks. How can I get this installed? Also am using Safari....

My newly acquired macbook does not have Appleworks installed. The finder gives this info.....
file://localhost/Volumes/AppleWorks%206.2.9%20Updater/AppleWorks%206.2.9%20Updat er BUT
then it informs me that the default location for this install could not be found and will not be installed.
I am a long time user of mac and appleworks and would like to have this installation. Please advise.
thank you.....

AppleWorks is not legally available for download. You would need to buy a copy. HardcoreMac.com still lists AppleWorks 6 on their website. You could also try eBay but you would need to make sure it is AppleWorks 6.2 or newer to install on OS X.

I want to use a printer's template with Photoshop to create a postcard. How do I do this?

I have used Photoshop to edit images for a number of years, but have not ever used it to embed images in pre-created print templates. I would be grateful for any advice you have for me -- thanks!

All templates are not created the same way. How one populates a template depends on the template document. Some are stored as PSD file some as a PNG file. So some are layer and other not. Image are added as layers using features like place, paste, duplicate layer from one document to an other. Image layers are re-sized using a layer transform and are often masked to the area being populated. Mask are also used to blend in images to create interesting composites.
