Question by Fifi Lekaff: How do I run my Ipad applications on my MacBook Pro? (step by step instructions would be awesome!) Thanks!!?
I have tons of Ipad applications, some work…some just don’t despite upgrading/reinstalling etc. So I’m getting annoyed with the Ipad….kinda regret getting it coz I have a MacBook Pro that hasn’t given any probs. Is there anyway I can get the Ipad applications to run on my MacBook Pro laptop instead…coz there are some apps that I do like (on the Ipad…but don’t seem to wanna work/uncrash etc). I dont want to lose the apps & usage of them. Even if it means only on the the Macbook. Any tech guidance/advice please?
Thanks!!
Can I ask another fews question too then – 1)why are so many of my legit-bought ipad applications not working?
2) Can I convert some chosen/favourite ipad applications of mine to a format suited for Macbook Pro?
3) And to do this conversion, who do I contact? A developer? Could you site me a few links of where I could locate talent developers like this?
4) How long do ipad developer applications usualy take? (many months?? or are we talking small development skilled projects)

Thanks!!

As the iPad runs on the Mobile OS(Like the iPhone) and the MacBook Pro runs on a Mac OS, they are on completely different stations thus you cannot run them on the Macbook. They iPad and Macbook do different things, so they are both useful in someway. As you said, the iPad applications… so it’s specifically for iPad.
