If this is just any 2 Macs, you may be able to use ScreenRecycler, from the same developer that wrote JollysFastVNC

In theory, a DisplayPort based iMac (something late 2009) can be used as an external screen from another Mac with DisplayPort or Thunderbolt port. I know that was one of the features listed back in 2009 when I got my 27" iMac, BUT I've never tried it, so I'm not sure of the details on making that work. I assume a mini-DisplayPort to mini-DisplayPort connector is needed, but that is just a guess.

I would like to film something with my macbook air and store it on an external harddrive. How can i do this?

What program should I use?
And how much storage would I need for a 3 hour film?

Look at this discussion:
http://https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1798640
The file will be stored in: Macintosh HD / System / Library / Compositions.
I have no idea what setting there may be and how to change them.
Ciao.

Hello, is it possible to connect my alienware laptop on an iMac and use just the screen of the iMac?

Does anyone know?

Not possible. That is why you didn't get an answer the first time you posted this question. Both computers need to be Mac's.

I would like to install my xerox 8560 multiple times and choose different options

I would like to install my xerox 8560 multiple times and choose different options (simplex, multiplex, etc.) for each printer, so that I can just choose the printer with the options needed instead of choosing them every time. Can that be done?

Have a look at this link - hopefully it sorts it out for you...

Would like to print from laptop to printer at home. Printer is ethernet connected to NetGear Router

HP PAvilion dv1000, Windows XP
Would like to print from laptop to printer at home. Printer is ethernet connected to NetGear Router.
I had been able to print wirelessly from laptop to HP 7310 Officejet all-in-one, but now all I get is "document failed to print" message. I can get documents to print on this printer using my smart phone, but not the laptop.
I have used "find printer" button on print screen and can see the printer to select.
Any suggestions?
This question was solved.

Figured it out after looking at a few other posts...
Configured port to printer IP Address and now it is printing perfectly.
Thanks for having posts out there to review.

I have two (paid) copies of lightroom 5 from your photography promotion installed (on two different machines). I would like to deactivate one copy on one desktop so I can install a copy on my laptop. How do I go about this?

While the standalone version of LR has no deactivation, the Photography Program which is LR + PS-CC bundled and licensed through the Cloud will have a 2-activation limit per Adobe ID, and you cannot decouple the LR from the PS-CC in the Photographers Bundle.
You can license the cloud on up to two computers per AdobeID by signing into the cloud. When you try to sign in on a third computer you have the option to deactivate the other two copies, which you can do, and then never sign into the cloud on the one computer you don’t want activated and you’ll be fine.

Hi, Tim.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would need clarification on this question to provide a better answer. However, you should just need to have the most current version of iTunes installed and connect the device via the included USB cable.

We have 4 iphones in our family and an Ipad. When we purchase music I would like for the entire family to be able to use it. Should each of us use a different apple account or should we use the same one.

We have 4 iphones and an Ipad in our family. When we purchase music, I would like for the entire family to be able to use it and then back it up to Icloud. What is the best and cheapest way for this to happen. Should we all have a different apple id or should we use the same one.

You will all need to be on the same itunes account ID.
You can however all have seperate icloud accounts aswel.

I'm about to buy a 27" i-Mac. I would like to connect my 30" Cinema Display to it as a second monitor. What will I need to do that? Will this slow down the overal performance?

The new iMacs do not come with a MiniDisplayPort, they have Thunderbolt, so unless you are talking about purchasing one of the previous generation iMacs such as this refurbished model in the online Apple store, it won't work. And yes, if you are going to get the full range of video resolutions you will need the Dual-Link version.
For details see the store's web page on the Dual-Link display adapter.

Would Like to Get Report of Daily Emails In and Out from Members to a DL Exchange version : 2007 I am the supervisor for the group and want to quantify this information. I do not need to see the content, just quantity is it possible ?

Well, distribution groups don't really have a concept of "in" or "out". They only serve to distribute messages sent to them -- unless you're asking to know who was a member of the distribution group at the time a message was sent to the DL.
Message tracking logs hold the information you want, though. You'd have to look for EXPAND events that reference the distribution group and take the sender's e-mail address from that event. If the DL is a simple one that's not a member of any other groups
you could also look for RECEIVE events sent to the e-mail address of the group and get the sender's name from that event.
You can use Powershell extract the rows of data from the logs, but you'll have to write the code to get the data out of those rows and into a format you want. Perhaps LogParser could be useful in place of Powershell?

I have activated 2 iPhones using my iTunes account, but I now would like to take one iPhone off this account, and start its own iTunes "pairing" in order to back up, without cross syncing between purchases, how can I do this?

I have activated 2 iPhones using ONE iTunes account, but I would now like to remove one iPhone from the account and add it to a new iTunes account. This is so that I can back it up without cross syncing between purchases/apps on both iPhones.
Whats the best method for this?
I'm running Windows 7
Many thanks

Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings. Be sure to turn it off.
You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account. You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account. (have restrictions turned off) That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices. Then sign in using the new ID.

I have movies, events, clips, etc. scattered over three macs, and would like to consolidate them in one place, hopefully in ONE library on an external HD. How, please!

Try forcing iPhoto to load the Library on the External Hard drive by launching it while holding down the Option key. Choose the Library on the External HD, and quit iPhoto, see if iMovie can see the Library with the iPhoto Videos contained inside.

Is there a way to transfer or copy all my apps to another iPad with a different account? I was required in my job to use the one at work, but I would like to also see my current set ups and apps as in my personal one. Thank you so much!

What I suggest is that you try to pair your apple ID with you company ipad and see if it works.
Here is why::
I believe that the Apple rules let you. They are something like:
-- for a shared iDevice, you may put the app on one device
-- for a device you use exclisively, you may put the app on five (or some number) of iDevices
I'm not lawyer, so how you interpred this is a question.
Now, you need to figure out how to do this.
In the past at least, apple used this terminalogy.
    Personal
    Institution
    Layered. combines personal & institution.
It depends on how your company has configured the iPad.
I have read where you can have upto three apple id per device.
