Networking

PC’s, Macs and routers talk the same language so adding a Mac to an existing home or business network is not difficult  For a wired network the connection is called ethernet and for wireless it’s call Wi-Fi, or 802.11 (with a, b, g, or pre-n flavours).

Ethernet and Wi-Fi (called Airport by Apple) technology is already built into todays iMacs, MacBooks and MacBook Pros.

You’ll also find BlueTooth built in, so wireless syncing to mobile phones and PDA’s is a breeze.

To transfer your mobiles photos across to your Mac just “Browse device ” found under the Bluetooth symbol in the menu bar. Select your photos and drag them to the desktop.


Sharing Files

Todays Macs talk the same language as PC’s when it comes to sharing files just make sure that your networked PC and Mac are set up for Windows file sharing and Voilà the PC can see the Mac, and the Mac can see the PC.

If you don’t have a network then why not use a USB memory stick as the Mac can read your PC formatted memory stick just as well as the PC can?

Remote Access

Thought remote access such as LogMeIn was for PC’s only? Think again, there is now a Mac Preview of LogMeIn now available for a free download. If you require more sophisticated remote access such as VPN (Virtual Private Networking) then call and discuss your requirements

VPN’s only work with PC’s! Not anymore. OS X provides basic VPN support that works with Microsoft Server. If you require solutions for Cisco, Netgear, etc, there are solutions.
