Help files – including videos – for the iPad are located on a server named “macserve”.
The Public folder on macserve is a public shared folder on the HSC intranet, so no password is required if you’re on the HSC intranet.
If you’re on a PC on campus, go to Start > Run, enter \\macserve.hsc.unt.edu and press return.
If you’re on a Mac on campus, you should have an alias in /Users/Shared.
If there is no alias, from the Finder/Desktop, pull down the Go menu and select Connect to Server….
Enter macserve.hsc.unt.edu and click the plus sign so macserve will be added to the list of Favorite Servers; click Connect.
Click on Guest; click Connect.
Select Public; click OK.
Once you’re logged in to macserve, navigate to Public > Help files > Help files for iPads.
You should be able to read the help files (PDFs) on either a PC or Mac.
To watch the videos, you should use QuickTime.
If you are on a PC, you need to check Start > Programs to see if QuickTIme is listed.
If not, download and install QuickTime from http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/.
Once installed, do not select to have all video play in QuickTime; this way, the videos will open in Windows Media Player, as you’re used to on a PC.
If you’re on a Mac, you already have QuickTime; it comes on every Mac.
Please contact don.seher@unthsc.edu with any questions regarding macserve.
