I wish I could find make them easily co-exist, but some of the things we're expected to believe are pretty far-fetched. For example, think of how interconnected our world is today. Someone explain to me how ONI was able to keep people on the planet ignorant of the invasion up to August 30th, after 500 years of additional communications technology advancement.
Also, where was the UNSC fleet that's supposed to consist of 100-150 ships when Long Night of Solace was in orbit? You're telling me they couldn't take on one ship? and even if can be explained, Reach, the military hub of the UNSC, has no nuclear weapons available as of August 14th?
Parangosky's stupidity masks all, according to 343. To them, ONI has it's ways.
Also, when Long Night of Solace was in orbit, the entire fleet and orbital platforms were on the other side of the world, according to the 343 released information. Completely in the dark. As for the nukes, we can hand-wave that as it's doubtful the Spartans would know exactly the payload left. Hell, they could've been in the dark about the fleet as much as the fleet was in the dark about them.

I personally can somewhat except halo reach as canon, but it clashes with Fall of Reach in multiple parts. For one, in the story, Cortana was on the Pillar of Autumn, but in the game Noble 6 gets it from Halsey who is in the underground area without any of the spartan-IIs and the reach crystal. Also, the Pillar of Autumn helps with the space battle in the book but then blasts off at the last second in the game. There are also a few other clashes, but overall I prefer the books telling of it.
Been confirmed, several times. Six picks up a PORTION of Cortana, which is taken to the PoA to merge with her larger self.
