How to Connect a MacBook With Another Laptop (10 Steps)


Turn the 'second' computer off. Connect the two computers to each end of a FireWire cable. If one computer doesn't have a FireWire port, you can also use an Ethernet cable to connect the two computers.
Turn the second computer on while holding down the 'T' key. This activates the second computer in question as a terminal or target disk; it will show up on the desktop of the main computer as a second hard drive. This only works if you use a FireWire connection; if you have created an Ethernet connection between the two computers, simply turn both of them on.
Manipulate the information from either computer via the primary MacBook if you're using a FireWire connection. If you're using an Ethernet connection you can use either computer as the main terminal, and you'll need to select the 'Sharing' pane of your System Preferences panel and enable the 'Internet Sharing' feature on the MacBook with the Ethernet box checked.
Click the small 'eject' button next to the target disk in your Finder display to disconnect the two computers. Alternatively, you can locate the icon for the target computer on your desktop and drag it to the desktop trash bin to disconnect the two computers. This is only necessary for the FireWire method.
Press the power button on the second computer to power it off. The primary computer can stay powered on throughout the whole procedure.

How to Change Boot Camp Partition Size


Install a recent version of Mac OS if necessary. Resizing existing partitions requires Mac OS 10.4.6 or later. Most Intel-based Macs shipped with this or a later version already installed, so this step is unlikely to be necessary for most users.
Back up your drive by copying important files to another drive. This is always a good idea before doing anything to your main hard drive.
Open the Mac OS Terminal by double-clicking on 'Terminal' in your 'Utilities' folder. This gives you access to the UNIX commands that run underneath the graphical interface of a Mac.
Find your partition by typing 'diskutil list' and pressing 'Enter.' You will see a list of all partitions on the hard drive. The boot disk is '/dev/disk0,' while others will be listed as 'disk1,' 'disk2,' and so on, each with an identifier header that tells you the name of that partition. Look for the one that matches the name of your Boot Camp Drive.
Discover the possible size for your partition by typing in:diskutil resizeVolumedisk_identifier limitsReplace 'disk_identifier' with the name of your Boot Camp partition and hit 'Enter' to view a list of the current, minimum, and maximum sizes for the partition.
Change the partition size by typing 'diskutil resizeVolume' followed by the identifier for your Boot Camp Partition and the size you want it to be. This size is written in gigabytes, but the command drops the 'B' to become simply 'G.'For example, to resize a partition entitled 'BootCamp' to 100 gigabytes, the command is: 'diskutil resizeVolume BootCamp 100G'Once you have typed your command, hit 'Enter' to resize the partition.
