I have had a very large Pandola plant for a year and would like to try and split it to make extra plants. Is this possible please?
Yes, this article tells you how to divide them:

Hi, I purchased my Anthurium a month ago and thought I was doing a good job taking care of it. It receives indirect bright light, misting every morning and I water it when the soil feels dry, maybe too dry. It is potted in peat moss. A couple of weeks ago I noticed some brown spots on newer/younger leaves and thought it was normal. I watered the plant Nov 1 and now today I noticed more brown spots and one of the flower buds had completely browned. I'm upset because I do have a tendency of killing plants and thought I was getting better ? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
Peat moss, alone, is very acidic. It also doesn't contain enough nutrients to sustain a plant. This is simply a medium that is meant to provide some hold without being a nutrient rich medium.
This should be replaced into quality potting soil (that will usually have peat as a small portion of the additives) with some compost added. many soils are already enriched with compost.
Keep the soil moist, but let it dry just a little down to about 1/2 an inch. They like it moist, but not wet or dry.

my anthurium has been doing great but recently the tips of the larger leaves are dry and brown what could be the cause or what can I do about it
Try raising the humidity around the plant by misting or using a pebble tray. Here is more info:

over and keeps growing until it breaks. Otherwise the plant is healthy. Any ideas?
It sounds like a lack of light. This can cause stems to elongate, becoming brittle, however your photo did not come through so I can't confirm this.
Sometimes, this can happen with overwatering, as well.

I bought this plant yesterday and the person told me it was a male and female plant. Is this true? I was disgusted. I felt like throwing it out. I would never thought of it like that.
The anthurium has both male and female structures on the plant. Some plants have only male or female, not both. It's important for purposes of breeding new cultivars. If you want to increase your plants, it's best to divide them when they become rootbound.

This is an anthurium I took over to take care of, but I am afraid this is out of my control... Is there anything I can do to help it get back? I would very much appreciate your support.
There are a few things that can cause what you see here!
Too much light will be the first thing to consider. They do not tolerate direct light. This must be bright, but indirect.
Cool temperatures could, also, be to blame. They are only hardy to zone 10, making them only suitable for tropical environments.
The next thing to consider will be overwatering. Though they don't like to dry out, completely, they do like a little break from the wet soil. Only water when the top inch of soil is bone dry.
Last will be nitrogen burn. Feeding with a high nitrogen fertilizer will cause burning to the leaves. It is best to use a cactus mix, with compost mixed in. This will provide adequate drainage, as well as nutrients that will not burn the plant.

the leaves and flowers grow out well but the tips of some leaves turn brown and the flowers start to turn color but then wilt and die long before they turn red.
There are a couple of things that could be happening here. Disease from overwatering is one possibility. The other possibility is a high nitrogen fertilizer. This will burn leaf tips and prevent flowers from forming properly. Both issues can have the same symptoms, but they will show in slightly different fashions.
