    mobile me and multiple email accounts

    So, you're hoping for a way to keep the work messages you send through MobileMe at home to sync with your computer at work? Since POP doesn't sync, the only thing that comes to mind is setting up your Me account at work and dragging the sent messages from your Me sent mailbox to your work sent...

    mobile me and multiple email accounts

    That's not a limitation of the iPad but of the email account. Change to an IMAP account or send and receive your work email through a Gmail account or MobileMe alias. Well, not the latter yet because iPhone OS doesn't support MobileMe aliases right now.

    mobile me and multiple email accounts

    You can certainly add your work account to Mail next to your MobileMe account. Are you instead asking about downloading your work messages together at me.com? There's no syncing, though, for POP accounts.

    All for one and one for all

    What now?, piquant. Was that a joke? I think we were collectively pretty clear that refurbishing your own Mac will not achieve the same level of quality as buying one refurbed by Apple.

    Flash drive-reformatted to PC

    A FAT32 format with MSDOS partition should work fine on both Mac and PC as long as it's the first or only partition. NTFS is readable but nt writable on the Mac.

    All for one and one for all

    Refurbished essentially means that a product was returned for some reason and can no longer be sold as new, even though it's being delivered to you as if it is. Refurbished products are retested and verified to perform like new ones. Buy refurb and save! That way you extra money to upgrade...

    Cpu

    What does a computer's stored files have to do with its ability to connect to the Internet? Do you know you posted on the Mac help forum? What model Mac is it and what version of Mac OS X? You can use the Mac's install disc to erase the hard disk and reinstall the OS.

    Does this make sense?

    Yeah, that's plenty of free space. Probably a memory issue given the slowish speed of your processor. With the right tools, opening the mini isn't hard. Go for it!

    Does this make sense?

    Also, Mikuro, we're now fortunate to have an OS that defragments itself automatically in the background as we go about our business.

    Does this make sense?

    How much hard disk space is free? How big is the disk? You might want to use Monolingual to remove unnecessary localization files.

    Does this make sense?

    Reinstalling Mac OS X should not be necessary on a regular basis; only as a last resort when nothing else helps. Like Giaguara said, there are various utilities you might use to clean up. In general, though, maximizing memory and running Software Update when prompted are the best ways to keep...

    TV not compatible with MacBook?

    Apple is not in the cable business. If you prefer to stick with a high quality brand name, shop with Monster Cable, for example.

    TV not compatible with MacBook?

    I don't understand what you mean about using USB for the video. I would adapt your display port to HDMI and use a long enough HDMI cable to comfortable reach your TV. For audio, you can adapt it as well to the same HDMI cable. For example, Monoprice.com has an adapter for display+audio to HDMI...

    mouse does not scroll down

    I would recommend following Apple's instructions for cleaning it. You're referring to a mouse with a scroll ball, right? Search Apple Support for clean and you'll find a section dedicated to cleaning all its products. You're looking for the Apple Mouse in Peripherals.

    Or, skip the clicking, put everything in your Documents folder, and use Spotlight (upper right magnifier) to find and open everything.
