Can i connect an apple and windows pc over a cross over cable.?

Certianly so long as you set up the ip address on both to be on the same network, but its likely that you wont even need a crossover as many of the apples auto switch after detecting the cable.

Windows allows internet connection sharing.  Enable this for the network connection of the computer which is online.\n\nA better solution is to hook up both computers through a router.  These can be purchased for under $50 online or in walmart/target/radio shack/etc.

Yes you should be able to network between windows xp and a mac. \ni hope this link helps you get a start http://www.macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2002/11/19/mac_pc.html

Nope, but Apple has software available that lets you run Windows on an Apple computer.

Your existing broadband connection will be either RJ45 or USB.\nYou will need a free RJ45 socket on each computer, to connect them - either with a single crossover cable, or two patch cables and a switch. \nI'm assuming the OSs are both Windows, and at least 98SE...\nThere is unlikely to be any need to have separate broadband connections for each computer - trust me!

Apple should link seamlessly to any network. I have one at work connected to a whole network of Windows computers and no problem. you will need Office for Mac to operate any programs like Excel, or Word so that files can be transferred easily.

You can network two machines via a RJ-45 to RJ-45 cable (crossover).\n\nHowever USB networking is not functional yet.

Cheapest: Buy a crossover cable and plug it into both PC's.\n\nBest: Buy a switch and two Cat5 cables. Connect each PC to the switch.

yes, try to connect the 2 PC together some how (seriel cable is the best way- both end should be male (have the little pins- needles if you want)), and configure you game's network so the computers can see each other, it should be very easy.\nhave fun.

Yes ofcourse.\nThere are emulators that can do that.\nBut all of them are in development stage and therefore not reliable.\nSo there is no official Mac emulator for windows.\nBut there are other Mac softwares that are also available for windows.\nLike iTunes. Use them if u like.

There are many ways to transfere data. If you have a network hub or switch you can connect both PCs and try it. If not you might wanna use either a ethernet crossover-cable check this out\nhttp://gccprinters.com/support/doc/crossover.html\n\nor you can use a usb computer-computer link\nhttp://www.windowsnetworking.com/j_helmig/usbmain.htm\n\nor finally you can just use a flash drive.

If you have firewire, use that - it's fast.  I think if you use an ethernet cable, that should work also.  You just have to use the Windows Networking Wizard thing and it should be fine.

You'll need to set up some kind of network. You can use a crossover cable, or a router. But that's a whole different thing. \n\nOnce you've done that have the printer connected to your mac, and go into the system prefs - print & fax, and in the sharing tab and turn sharing on for that printer. Your pc should now be able to print to that computer across the network. I don't know how to do it so the printer is connected to the pc, something much more complicated probably.

If you mean you want to network your two computers together using a USB cable, you can just use the networking wizard at Start --> Control Panel --> Network Connections. \n\nIf they're hooked together, they should see each other via your A-to-A cable.

If you have them networked, use file sharing.  Switch to finder, then from the "Go" menu select "Connect to Server".  From that local computer you can connect  to the other computer by using the username/password that you use on the other computer.\n\nThen you can mount your MacOSX or other disks on the desktop of the local computer, and copy files back and forth.  Files drag-n-dropped from the local computer into the remote computer's disk folder will be copied to the remote computer, and vice versa.\n\nHopefully you have these two system connected on a network.  If not, you need to plug them together with a network cable - modern Macs do not need a "hub" or "router" if only two Macs are involved.  Use the network cable that came with your Mac.  The ends look like phone connectors on steroids - they're about twice as wide as phone connectors but the same general appearance.  Once you plug them together you need to set an IP address for each one.  I suggest 10.4.4.4 and 10.4.4.5 since they're easy addresses to deal with.  That way the two Macs will be able to see each other.  Then enable Personal File Sharing using the Sharing preference panel and you can do the "Connect to Server" trick mentioned above.\n\nIf you open Apple Help, enter "share files" for more info, or enter "Networking" for networking info.\n\nThe Apple website has excellent discussion groups with free registration and tons of Mac gurus contributing answers.  See sources.\n\nHope this helps..\nJC

Yes there are lots of different ways to accomplish this.\n\nIf both computers have network cards you can use a crossover cable(network cable with specific wires crossed) to connect them setup ip addresses and file sharing.\n\nUse a router or switch and plug them both in with regular network cables. \n\nUse serial cables and setup a direct connection.\n\nIf both have wireless cards you can setup an adhoc network between the two or get a wireless router and plug one in and have the other wireless.

Assuming you have modem - go with 'Windows network'\n\nOtherwise, crossover ehter net cable.
