Using REMOTE with a mac

from the apple website:
Using Keynote Remote with Bluetooth
When a Wi-Fi connection is unavailable you can use Keynote Remote with Bluetooth to control your Keynote slideshow from one iOS device to another (iPad, iPhone, iPod touch). However, slides may take longer to appear on Keynote Remote when connected via Bluetooth. You cannot use Keynote Remote via Bluetooth with a Mac.
really???........ what is the point? Can i use it with a PC? who's million-dollar idea was this?

I'm not sure that Tuttle's answer is quite the answer you're looking for. Sounds like you sometimes want the remote to control the iPhone in the dock, while other times you want it to control the MBP. If that's correct, there's really only one decent option: two remotes. Both devices should have come with a remote, so you should already have two. You can [pair one with the computer|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1619] and [pair the other with the dock|http://support.apple.com/kb/TA23708?viewlocale=en_US]. You'll need to label the remotes somehow so you can tell which is which.
Alternately, of course, you could just change the pairing every time you want to switch devices, but that seems like a bit of a pain to me.

Is it possible to use aim with a mac for free?

Is it possible to use aim with a mac for free?

If you mean the application AIM for Mac, it will depend on your download speed.
If you mean "Can I use iChat with an AIM a screen name and does it cost anything ?" then the answer is Yes you can and no it does not cost and there is no download to do.
If you mean "Can I use the AIM service with an @mac screen name and can this be done for free ? " then the answer is again yes.
A trail account cost nothing and will work in ichat after the 60 days is up
A Paid for but Lapsed account will also work in iChat and for this purpose can now be considered free.
As I said and hinted at before your first question does not make it clear what you are actually asking.
The Application AIM for Mac is stuck at version 4.7 and does not do Video or Audio Only chats.
It has things that are useful in tweaking Buddy Lists in iChat but it is not specifically needed to contact AIM Buddies.

Using remote with more then one computer.

Can i use remote with different computers? It works fine on mine but if i try to use it with another computer in the house it doesn't show up in itunes.

If you want to connect and use an iPod (other than a shuffle) on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply.
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
Note: When changing from automatic to manual, check the "manually manage music and videos" box in Summary then press the Apply button. "Don't" uncheck Sync Music in the Music tab, it will be unchecked by default when you choose the manual setting, if you uncheck it without setting the iPod to manual first you'll erase all the songs from your iPod
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod

Using Aperture with multiple Macs

Hi, all -
I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to share and manage a common photo library across different Macs. I'm about to buy a 2nd Mac (my wife and I will each have our own) and I'm curious how to best share the photo library between our two computers. Assume that the photos will be stored on a common server that is accessible to both. I'd like to use iPhoto on one Mac and Aperture on the other, but I haven't come up with a good way to make each application "aware" when I upload new pics to the server.
What are other people doing to have a common photo library?
What I'm currently doing is importing files from the camera to my local computer, moving files to the server, and then using EXIFtool to rename files by date/time they were taken and sorting into a directory structure based on YYYY/MM/DD. The main photo directory on the server is then shared with the other computers.

I have two Mac's. Both happen to be MacBook Pros. One is the older 2.4 the other is the newer 2.66 (June 2009). I have always kept my Aperture Libraries on external hard drives. Currently I am Using Lacie 320 GB Firewire 800/400. However I am looking at getting the new Lacie eSATA 500 GB.
Now all I have to do is plug in to either system I am using and open the Library. I have another one I use for the Vault for backing up.

If i set up my iphone on a pc, can i still use it with my mac?

i just got a hand-me-down iphone 3gs that's been restored and updated, etc. however, i am currently using a pc until i get my new macbook (which will probably not be for a few months). if i use itunes with my phone on my pc now, can i still set it up to sync later when i get my new laptop? or is it the same as with ipods, like once you set up on a pc, you can't add anything to it from a mac?

Depends on what you want to sync.
Contacts and calendars - yes with icloud.
photos yes with computer and future pictures with icloud.
Apps - does not make since, since apps are different for ipad and iphone.

Populating a Combobox using Remoting with AMF and PHP

Hello all
I am using Zend framework and Flex 3.4 to create a webapp. I am stuck at how to populate a combobox dynamically using the service I created in PHP.
In some of examples I saw that result of database query was being converted into XML and then sent to Flex. This seems a little too time-consuming if I have to do it every time. I saw some examples in Adobe Docs about Remoting with AMF and PHP. That seems like a better approach although how it would be applicable here is beyond me right now.
Can somebody guide me in correct direction?
Thanks and Regards
Shivik

Try this: http://code.google.com/p/as3flexdb/ is very easy to use and it
will help.
All you need to populate a combo is:
<mx:ComboBox dataProvider="{query.Records} /

Can't Use Video with other Mac users who use AIM

I know that ichat is compatible for video chats with other pc users who use aim, but does it work with other mac users who use aim?
Everytime I try to chat with my friend, I get an error message when trying to start of a video chat.
BTW, I use a iMac G5 with an isight camera.

Hi Staci,
For a Bit of Clarity.
AOL have their Instant Message App. referred to as AIM.
Apple decided and did a deal with AOL that iChat could join their service Buddy Lists.
On these Discussions we tend to refer iChat as Logging into AIM, as they are the servers that the Buddy Lists are held on.
As iChat can also use Bonjour and Jabber, both of which have their own Buddy list window on your Mac. The Jabber side needs you to have a Jabber screen name - so again people differentiate between this and the AIM side.
I would guess you friend is trying to make it clear that she is using the AIM side of iChat as opposed to the Jabber side.
As has been said already, the Application side of things also tend to get referred to generically as "AIM" as well.
The Mac version has stopped and 4.7 and will only Text chat.
The PC side needs 5.9 to clearly Video or Audio chat with a Mac using iChat. (AIM 6.0 is not stable enough to A/V chat to iChat).

Can I buy a windows wireless keyboard and use it with my MAC?

Can I use any wireless keyboard with my macbook? I am eyeing a logitech wireless keyboard and want to use it with my macbook as it seems to be a good value. Any thing I need to be concerned of when making that purchase?
<Post Relocated by Moderator>

What's the model number for the one you're eyeing? Many Logitech products work fine with a Mac, but if you want to check for yourself, take a look through the logitech website: http://www.logitech.com/
If it doesn't state compatibility with a Mac, there's still the possibility it will work. But if you want the least hassle, make sure the one you're looking at is Mac-compatible.

Using Mail with no .mac account

Hi, I know I can use Mail without a .mac account, but how? Everytime I open Mail, I get the 'enter your .mac password' thing, and not having a password, means I can't get any further, into the settings or anything.
What do I do?

Using Remote with other Applications

Okay, so I want to use my Apple remote to control VLC (a media player) so I can use it whenever without having to get up and pause, skip forward, or skip backward with my keyboard. So anyway...I downloaded this program that looked very promising
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/23518
But it doesn't seem to let me add new applications which is a real bummer. Has anyone figured out a way to do this, or something similar to customize the uses of the Apple remote? Any help is greatly appreciated

I think you may want this,http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/productivity_tools/mira.html it cost money for the full version but the demo works just fine(it seems to last forever).
