Until Yosemite is released, you don't unless you find an app.

I have a macbook pro with a mini display port out and would like to know how to connect the video from my mac to a TV with old RCA input video, or a TV with S-video imput. How can I do this, and do I need a video converter?

I would like to forward my phone calls and texts from current number to work cell and discontinue my current plan while still maintaining my cell number

I have a work cell and would prefer to just have one phone on me, however, I don't want to lose my personal cell number.
I'm ok with paying $5 or $10 a month. Is this possible? I hear I can do it through google voice as well.

So, if I understand what you want to do - you want to keep your current, personal cell #, and forward all calls to your work phone. (I'm not sure if text messages can be forwarded, you may be able to use the desktop Messages app to view and reply to text messages when the phone is not with you.)
In order to accomplish this, you need to have service on the phone number ... what plan are you on now? And what phone do you have on your personal Verizon line?

I need help. My three boys have brand new iPad mini's and I would like to set them up. I would like to create one new apple ID and have it shared by all three. This way they can share content (apps, music). How do I do that?

Looking for an information management solution. I have three boys that have brand new ipad mini's. I would like to set them up to manage information the easiest way.
My first thought was to use my apple ID for their apps and purchases. This would give me the advantage of seeing everything downloaded and be able to monitor this closely. The disadvantage to me, was that they would see all of my contracts, my apps, and my music.
My other thought was to create one new apple ID and to share that among the three boys. This way I would not have to worry about my information being on their ipads.
This is a very confusing situation for me. My goal is seperate my stuff from my kids stuff. Appreicate input from anyone who has in-depth experience with this as it applies to apple ID, icloud ID, and any detailed explaination of how to do this would be appreiciated. Thanks.

I think I will do this. I will use my apple ID and set face time and message to work independently. That solves one problrem. My other problem and maybe my bigger problem is that if I am using my apple ID, how do I iflter all of this so that my kids don't see my contacts, get my apps, etc. ?

I just bought apple tv and would like to set it up for my family for christmas. i have a samsung tv and yamaha receiver. where do i plug in hdmi? i assume into receiver but not sure. also, plug is on back of receiver so much get behind all equipment

i just bought apple tv and would like to set it up so it works right away. i have samsung tv and yamaha receiver. do i plug hdmi into receiver? i assume plugs are in back of machined so i have to get behind all electronic equipment? does that make sense?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your receiver is connected to your TV by HDMI and has a spare HDMI input port, then yes plug the HDMI cable from the Apple TV into your receiver.
If that's not possible the HDMI lead from the Apple TV can go straight to the TV and you can connect the receiver to the Apple TV with an optical audio cable.

I would like to set up a homegroup with a new Macbook Pro and 2 Windows PCs. The PCs are wired to an Airport Time Machine and the Mac is wireless. All computers have internet through the Airport Time Machine.

It will not do anything at all to your computer.

I would like to set a capture time so it stops after 90 mins

i would like to set a capture time so it stops after 90 mins so if I am not there it stops recording is this possible?

Thanks. I had tried that, but was still having problems. Then I realized that I was using three addresses on both devices. Once I changed it to only one email on one iPad and a different email on the other, it worked great. Your message encouraged me to dig deeper and think differently. It worked. Thanks again!

I have had apple products now for apron 7 years BUT have never been able to make the bluetooth work , not even when 2 products i.e. : phone and iPod are in the same room. So i stopped trying but would like to set it up between my iMac and i

hi can anyone help please ? i have had apple products now for apron 7 years BUT have never been able to make the bluetooth work , not even when 2 products i.e. : phone and iPod are in the same room. So i stopped trying but would like to set it up between my iMac and iphone / ipad but can't get it to work, they say discoverable but just will not connect to one another. I also tried the connection code and tried without one ... NO JOY ... Is this common or am i a twit ?

You can't connect an iPhone or iPad to a Mac via Bluetooth, except for Internet tethering.
You're not doing anything wrong - it just isn't a feature of iOS devices.
What were you hoping a Bluetooth connection would allow you to do?

I would like to set up an older iPad with a new messages account so it can be used by my kids. I don't, however, want to lose the apps or music that are on the iPad. Can I change only the Messages "account"?

Just for my own privacy i would like to set up a password or pin number on my messgae app is there anything out there that will help me do this please comment if there is a possible solution out there. I know alot may say what you have to hide but ive got nothing to hide i just want one on there so my privacy is not broken by friends and family if they fancy playing on my phone and having a snoop round my phone.

If you visit these forums often, you will read about the 2 year old child who accidentally wiped out the parents phone, the kid who set a passcode and didn't remember what it was, etc etc etc
Passcode your device. Protect your device. It really isn't a toy. The toy is the iPod touch.

I just installed Acrobat Pro for Mac. I would like to set it up to go into the regular program home

I just installed Acrobat Pro for Mac. I would like to set it up to go into the regular program home page (just like the windows based) instead of the "getting started" window.

Good day,
Choose Acrobat > Preferences. Click 'General'. Uncheck the 'Show welcome screen' option under Application Startup.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

I have gone to the online apple store and looked for an Airport Extreme Card and found nothing. Where would I look for this card, and is that what it is called?
If the online store does not have it, call your local Apple Store or even an AASP.
