how to program Arduino pro mini using Arduino uno/ Mega ADK/ Mega 2560/ nano

This applies only if The Arduino Pro Mini is 5V/16Mhz

Mega    to  Pro Mini
Rx              Rx
Tx              Tx
Gnd           Gnd
Vcc            Vcc
Rst-Gnd

On the IDE under tools---> board select Pro mini
And select 5V/16Mhz

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SELECT "ARDUINO AS ISP"

Once you've done typing and compiling, While uploading you have to tap the reset button on the pro mini when the size appears in bottom on the IDE screen. It is important to get the timing right but a little practice could do the job.
