Thank you very much.
Can I show the note 3 screen on television through usb 3.0 cable? When I connect it to tv, it says "connected as media player" but it doesn't work. Please help me.
No, you need a MHL cable and connect your note 3 to the hdmi port.
It's probable better to get a Chromecast to mirror the screen wirelessly.
If your TV supports Miracast, you can also directly use the screen mirroring feature in Note 3. You may check chromecast and miracast here http://allaboutchromecast.com/chromecast-vs-miracast-everything-you-need-know-about-wireless-display-and-screen-mirroring/
Mac version 10.4.11 how can I upload photos to it saved on my note 3
There are many ways to transfer files from note 3 to your Mac depending on your preference.
The simplest way is to turn on auto backup of photos (in photos app). Then all your photos are automatically backed up in Google +. You can access them from any devices.
