Connect your iPhone to your computer.
Click your iPhone under DEVICES.
Click SUMMARY/Options/check box "Sync with this iPhone over Wi-Fi".

Hi Otto:
Of course, I manually entered all of them in the PC and set up my groups. I am wondering why, when I go to send a Yahoo mail, the contact isn't there in my Yahoo account. So it must reside on my PC. But that doesn't make sense either because if I use a PC at work, and write an email out of my personal Yahoo account, the contacts are there.
I really don't know what Yahoo and Gmail are using on my PC as I don't personally get into Internet Explorer or Outlook, although they may be the way Yahoo and Gmail work -- beyond my understanding, I'm afraid.
I went to the web via Google Chrome, searched for Yahoo Mail or Gmail and made desktop icons.
So I am thinking that I need to manually enter all these people in my Mac/Apple Contacts if I want them to automatically come up with their email address.

Hi Jim: How cool is that!
Now what are Command Z and Command A?
I am finding that I am using the PC less and less. Really, it's the only way to learn.
Thanks,

Hmmm? I never noticed that. Must be because I click, hold and drag, to highlight what I want. I never knew about using the shift key.

Others have enumerated ways that selecting and dealing with selections of text, graphics, icons, etc. are similar and/or different on the PC and the Mac.
One thing that always drives me bananas whenever I must work on a PC is a convention that the Mac has had forever that the PC never adopted. I have no idea why.

However, on the PC, if you do that, the end of your selection will be somewhere WITHIN the last line of text, aligned with the horizontal position of the cursor when you click your mouse the second time. BRAIN DEAD, yet it's survived now for almost 30 years as a difference between the two systems. I cannot imagine the difference is because Microsoft worried about "copying" the Mac interface. No one heard of "Command-V, Command-C, Command-X, Command-Z, Command-A" before the Mac, and Microsoft had no reservations whatsoever about mimicking them all. It's almost as if they DID, at some point, agree among themselves that if they were going to steal the Mac's user interface they had to make it work just not quite as well as it did on the Mac...

As long as the thread is Pages perhaps I can inquire now - (while I remember).
I'm using OS 10.8.2 - I've used Pages since the switch from Appleworks. Now, with App store and the current OS I buy my stuff from there. I still have my old Pages app but I"m not that crazy about the way it comes up and the way I have to save documents, etc. I'd kind of like to get Pages on my iPad but it's not necessary.
I get recipes from wherever, cut and paste them into a Pages doc and stick them into my Dropbox. Then I can do my shopping or cooking from the iPad. If I got the Pages app could I save them to the Cloud and access them from the iPad? Can I do that now? (I don't think so - not without the Pages on my iPad.) If I get the Pages will it be available for the iPad as well as the Mac or is the Mac app different from the iPad app and therefore another price/cost? Last - is it worth it?

Look in you Application folder, you should have an app called App Store. This is the Mac App Store, different from the (iOS) App Store found in iTunes.
That is where you will find the Mac version of Pages. They stopped selling the optical disks of iWorks almost 2 years ago.

Thanks, I didn't know, since SL isn't IOS if the Stand-alone app was somehow different and wouldn't work unless i had ios.

Hester, you seem to have fallen through the crack.
If you are using 10.6.8, you will have the (Mac) App Store on your Mac to purchase some apps. Unfortunately the only Pages.app they currently offer there is for 10.7.4 or above.
So to answer your original question, no you can not purchase Pages for Mac OS X 10.6 as a separate application, normally. Try contacting the Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775, and see if they can arrange a down load for you, IF you are running 10.6.8. Otherwise your best bet would be to buy a copy of iWorks (9?) on disk, online for about $39, from someone other than Apple.
There is a lot of confusion in this thread about Pages for iOS, which the OP never asked about.

The Airport BS, Dual Ethernet, 2001-2003 had only two Ethernet ports. One WAN and one LAN.
Ken, make sure you and the router or switch to the LAN side. LAN is local area network, and WAN is wide area network. WAN is the side that goes to the internet.

had 3 (plus the WAN port, of course).

I would be cautious of using extra ports on the cable modem, if it has any extra, unless you can control its firewall.

1. Check your Cable Modem for extra Ethernet ports.
2. Check your Cable Modem specs to see what speed the extra Ethernet

10BaseT speed? slowest
100BaseT speed? faster aka Fast Ethernet
1000BaseT speed? fastest aka Gigabit Ethernet
These Ethernet ports are all the same RJ45 type port but run at
different speeds.
The speed of Ethernet ports needs to be considered when
buying/installing Ethernet cables. An Ethernet cable rated at Cat 5e
(Category 5e) is rated to work at all three speeds while a cable rated
at Cat 3 only works on slower speeds.
3. The AirPort Extreme ports are:
a. Ethernet WAN port aka an RJ45 port. To connect to a cable modem.
b. Ethernet LAN port aka an RJ45 port. To connect to other Ethernet
devices such as an Ethernet switch.
c. Internal Modem port aka an RJ11 telephone jack for a connection to
a phone line.
d. USB port.
4. Ethernet Switch. Get a small Ethernet Switch. Be sure to get an
Ethernet "Switch" and NOT an Ethernet Hub. They look the same but work
differently. Switch is better.
I tend to prefer the Netgear brand and have 3 in my house and they have
been reliable. You can buy these in different sizes from 4 ports on up
to many ports.
Connect the new Ethernet Switch to an Ethernet port on your cable
modem/router (if it has Ethernet ports). Or, connect it to the Apple
AirPort Extreme Ethernet LAN port.
You could connect the camera system to the Ethernet LAN port on the
AirPort Extreme but you would then be out of Ethernet ports. Getting
an Ethernet Switch gives you extra ports for all kinds of future use.
5. Connecting this stuff is beyond simple and easy and normally no
configuration is required. The harder part is learning to match
Ethernet port speeds so they all match and this gives you the best
speed available.
For example, in my house I have a lot of Ethernet cable in conduit to
different rooms and it's all rated for Cat 5e speed. Now also ALL of
the Ethernet ports on my FiOS fiber optic router, on two Ethernet
switches, on all Macs, and on a NAS RAID drive run at the 1000BaseT
speed (which needs the Cat 5e type cable) AND all of the short 12 and
15 inch long Ethernet patch cords to connect stuff is also Cat 5e.

Don't I want to add it to the WAN side? WIthout pulling the entertainment unit out from the wall and tracing the cables, I think I have my TV on the WAN. I'm trying to get my security cameras onto the internet so I can see them when I'm out on the road, away from home. Shouldn't that be the WAN side?

Just want to make sure before I purchase one. Looks like it can be done using the Mini Display port to DVI adapter and the HDMI to DVI adapter.
The monitors aren't that big: A 20 inch apple Cinema (1600 x 2000) and a 19 inch Dell (1280 x 1024). They fit comfortably side by side on my desk. They both have DVI connectors.
The Mini would replace my PPC G5. Ye olde G5 runs great and has been problem free. But I keep bumping into new and interesting applications that require machines with Intel processors.
I've been running two monitors on my Macs since 1999; first with a G3 Blue & White then with the current G5. The new machine MUST run two monitors.
Thanks.

I'm positive the newer ones can - I have the 2009 Mini Server connected to
my 46" LG TV via HDMI cable and a 19" display via mini display port to HDMI
adapter
