Hi, I'm a new mac user. I recently picked up a mac pro, and I have been wanting to connect my iPad to it so I can use it for drawing and artwork. What I would like to do is to have the iPad be like a second display so that I can easily draw on the iPad with the stylus, and use it for artwork in programs like flash and photoshop. I have searched the app store and found a few programs, but I'm not sure which one I should buy. I don't want to accidentally pay for something, but not have it compatible or something like that. Here are the specs:

Processor: 3.5 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5
Memory 16 GB 1867 MHz DDR ECC
Graphics AMD FirePro D500 3072MB
Software OS X 10.9 (13A4023)

Hello! If I remember clearly from an experience I had, if you buy an app, then find you don't like it, you can get a refund if you do it within 30 days. It wouldn't hurt to double check on how many days though, but I think I'm remembering that right.

There is no such thing as a 30 day refund period.

Here is an article about how to ask for a refund - but nothing is guaranteed since all purchases are "final".

Oh OK. I'm glad someone cleared that up, thanks. I did get a refund from the app store, that much I do recall for sure. In fact I did contact Apple, just don't remember exactly what they said, though they did say I could get the refund. I'll read your article, too. Whenever I'm not sure of something, I let people know, in case I am wrong.

Thanks for the info.
