How do I connect 2 Apple laptops together using one as a external drive only?

Question by Steve G: How do I connect 2 Apple laptops together using one as a external drive only?
I’d like to know how to connect my old Apple laptop to my new one for file transfer by using it as an external drive. Eventually I’ll remove the hard drive from the old machine and put in its own housing purely for storage use.

Ok, try this: When restarting your old mac, hold down the letter “t” on your keyboard. Let go when the firewire icon appears (it may or may not make a noise, I don’t remember). Then you can connect your macs with a firewire cable and the old mac will be treated as an external hard drive and you can easily transfer files over.

What’s new with Apple Macbooks and Notebooks?

As Apple remodeled their range of Apple Macbooks in 2008,  their target was to attract attentions of serious, business users, students and to gamers.

 

Apple have added the NVIDIA graphics card to their MacBook range, which offers  crisper, sharper graphics and moving images no longer appear blurred, which is a decided bonus if you fancy yourself as a Tim Burton, Ron Howard or Quentin Tarantino and want to produce and direct your own movies with iMovie HD or iDVD. In short Apple has opted to introduce one of the very best, with their decision to integrate NVIDIA into their MacBook.

 

Apple  have dispensed  with the mouse button and have installed a multi touch pad, which is similar to the operations of Apples iPod  and initially it may take some getting used to for first time Mac users, but, is likely to become extremely popular because the MacBook trackpad can be customised to suit individual users.

The trackpad is made from glass, rather than plastic, which fits in better with the MacBook’s sleek new look.

 

By constructing  the latest Apple MacBook from one sheet of aluminium, Apple have not only, created a laptop which is sleeker, smoother and better looking appearance than previous MacBooks, but, offers greater stability and solidity than ever before. So a Mac user need no longer fear transporting their MacBook in backpacks or messenger bags, on trains, planes or, even, in cars. So, at last a MacBook becomes a truly portal computer that does not need to be treated with kid gloves.

 

MacBooks are Wi-Fi capable and come with iChat instant messaging apps and an in-built iSight camera, too. So, you can be keeping in touch with loved ones or work colleagues in no time at all.

 

Apple MacBooks come with iLife 08 suite of applications which allows users to edit, share, organise and create calendars, cards and books with iphoto; iMovie allows users to add a professional look to home videos or movies and makes it easy peasy to upload your movies to a website or, even, YouTube, iPods or iPhones; GarageBand lets users make sweet music and many more features.

 

The latest Apple MacBooks bring together stunning good looks with user friendly practicality, new improved sturdiness with richer, faster loading graphics and are available from Pyramid.com.
