How to Set Up Mail in Macbooks (5 Steps)


Click the 'Mail' icon in your Dock to open Apple Mail. If you don't have Mail in your Dock, click the 'Finder' icon to open a new Finder window, then select your 'Applications' folder in the shortcut menu on the left. Double-click the 'Mail' icon to open the application.
Enter your full name, email address and password into the Mail setup assistant window. Apple Mail gives you the option to automatically set up email accounts for MobileMe and many popular email services. If this option does not appear, select a POP, IMAP or Exchange email account type.

Click the 'Continue' button to finish setting up your email account. Click the 'Show' button, which appears after setting up your first account in Apple Mail, to view new features in the Apple Mail application.
Select 'Mail' from the top menu bar, then select 'Preferences' and click the 'Accounts' tab. You can add or remove an email account at any time by using the '+' and '-' icons at the bottom of your accounts list.
Click the '+' icon at the bottom of the Mail application window to add a mailbox or folder to organize your emails.

How to DJ With a MacBook (3 Steps)


Djay is a downloadable DJ software program for Mac OS X that uses your iTunes library to let you cue up songs, create endless loops and seamlessly fade and transition between songs. The interface is designed to visually simulate the classic 'two turntables and a microphone' setup of an old school DJ. Choose a song from your iTunes library and Djay will begin to a play the song, allowing you to loop a beat at any point in the song, match tempo and beats with another song cued up, and fade between the two with an easy to use interface. The program has an auto pilot function, which mixes music and playlists automatically, and has a record function for recording mixes and podcasts.
Ask The DJ is a free automatic DJ program available for download that uses iTunes to create hours of uninterrupted play, based off of keywords you type into the engine. Ask The DJ scans your iTunes library, analyzing tracks for similar genres and beat patterns, then matches and mixes beats, as well as synchs volume level to create a seamless, continuous groove. As Ask The DJ is a very 'hands off' program, it is excellent for occasions where you don't want to have a live DJ or worry about changing records yourself.
AccuBeat Mix is an simple, easy to use beat and mix software application for Mac that is available as a download from the internet. The program allows users to mix and match beats seamlessly, manually or automatically. Though it lacks some of the fun, visual features of a program like Djay, it is available as a free demo, and the entire program can be purchased for cheap.

How to Sync a MacBook Pro With an iPad (6 Steps)


Connect the iPad and the MacBook Pro using the USB cable included with the tablet. If the MacBook has a compatible version of iTunes installed, it opens automatically. If it has an older version of iTunes, update it by clicking the 'Help' menu and selecting 'Check for Updates.'
Click the 'Continue' button when the iPad welcome screen appears. This first-time setup sets your syncing preferences for use during future connections. Read the software license agreement and click 'Continue' again.
Enter your Apple ID and associated password in the provided boxes. This links your iTunes account to the iPad, and allows you to transfer purchased media and make new purchases directly on the device. To create a new Apple ID, click the 'I do not have an Apple ID' radio button to set one up. Click 'Continue.'
Leave the 'Set up as new iPad' radio button selected and click on 'Continue.' Enter a title for the iPad in the 'Name' box and check the boxes below to automatically sync songs, photos and applications as desired. If you do not choose to sync information automatically, you can still manually add that type of media to the iPad. Click 'Done' to exit setup.
Wait for the first sync process to finish. This may take some time depending on the size of your media library. If you did not choose any automatic syncing options or left some media types unsynchronized, you can add specific items to the device by dragging files from the iTunes library over the iPad's icon in the left frame.
Click 'Eject' when finished and disconnect the iPad from the MacBook Pro. The device syncs again when reconnected.
