Can I use a macbook air for the screen when using a mac mini?

Trying to figure out if I have a mac mini, can I hook up my macbook air and use the screen from the air to view what is on my mac mini?

No. That feature is only available on iMacs.

  • Can I exchange my macbook air for the new pro?

    I recently bought a haswell series 13" macbook air exactly 1 week before the introduction of the new haswell macbook pros.  After considering the spec and price difference I realized I'd rather have the pro. I looked on the returns tab on the website.  It said I can return my product within 14 days. Is it possible for me to exchange my air for the pro without having to go through returning my macbook air and buying the pro?  I realized the price difference wasn't all that differernt and I wouldn't mind the extra power. I currently have the 13" macbook air i5 with 8gb. I plan on getting the 8gb for the 13" retina display macbook pro as well

    I strongly doubt it. The best thing for you to do is to return this one before the 14 days expire. If the time passes you will have to keep the Air and try to sell it privately.
    Once Apple accepts the Air back and you know you are getting a refund you can start the order process for the Pro.

  • Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?

    Please take the Mac to  Apple store to have it checked out.

  • How do I put an external display to sleep when I am using my MacBook Air for presentation?

    How do I put an external display to sleep when I am using my MacBook Air for presentation? I do not want to go to the projector just to turn it off and turn on again after a while? Is there a keyboard shortcut for that?

    I want to be able to sleep the external display and at the same time do things in the MacBook.( This feature is useful for me so that I can prepare some things and so that my audience will not see what I am about to show them.)
    Is there a feature for Mountain Lion?

  • HT2494 How do I connect my TV to my macbook air. The socket I used on my white macbook is not present?

    Have just bought a Macbook Air and the socket I used to use to connect my Macbook (White) to the TV when watching video is missing. What can I do?

    The new MacBook Air has a Thunderbolt port. Apple introduced this form factor with the Late 2008 model (then called MiniDisplay Port. I suspect your MacBook had a Mini-DVI port. So you'll need to purchase an adapter for this computer as well as any additional cabling.

    Don't pay any mind to the fact that it says MiniDisplay Port and not Thunderbolt, it's backwards compatible.

  • Can I return my MacBook Air past the return date?

    Hi, I have a question that I've been googling but I haven't been able to find an answer to anywhere. Can I return a MacBook Air past the return date to an Apple store if it is still in shrink-wrap and I have a receipt? Thanks.

    I would think you cannot return a product after the return date has passed.
    Call the Apple Store and ask them.

    Are you trying to use a 32bit version (I did not even know there is one for Photoshop CC 2014)?
    If so – why?

    What version of OS X are you using? If Yosemite, you need to update to 10.10.1 or higher.
    In any case, start by going to the editor preferences>general, clicking this button and restarting the editor:

  • How many airport express can I add to my network for the purpose of using the airport express to send audio signal to different rooms in the house? I'm interested I'm running about six different zones.

    How many airport express can I add to my network for the purpose of using the airport express to send audio signal to different rooms in the house? I'm interested I'm running about six different zones.
    What I'm looking to do is to have self powered in ceiling speakers in every room in my house with out having to run wires to every room to carry the audio signal. I would like to use the airport express to do the job of carting the audio signal.
    Here's my set up now I have an airport extreme and one airport express that I use to carry audio to one room.

    FWIW. I have used up to four AirPort Express Base Stations (AX) for streaming sucessfully in pretty much the way you have described. I didn't have a need to try more so I can't attest that more would or would not work.

    Since it's new and in warranty take it in for repair or replacement.

  • Can I purchase an IPad Air in the USA and use it in Canada to process credit card sales?

    Can I purchase an IPad Air in the USA and use it in Canada to process credit card sales?

    It will work in Canada, but if you purchase a WiFi+Cellular model I'm not sure that the warranty would be honored in Canada. If you live it Canada, it would be better to purchase your iPad there.

  • App Stores complains that I have not used my MacBook Air for a purchase. But I have !!!

    My MacBook Air is registered with Apple (tick).
    I have an ITunes voucher which I have redeemed from Apple (tick).
    I have at Apple ID (tick).
    Go to buy something (a game in this case for £3.99) on my MacBook Air via the App Store
    I immediately get prompted to answer my 2 security questions which I have never registered in the first place!!!! But my MacBook Air is registered with Apple !!! SO MY PURCHASE IS DECLINED !!!!
    Frustrated or what.

    Apple ID security issues -
    Account security issues almost always require you to speak directly to an Apple representative to securely establish your identity as the account holder. You can set it up so that Apple calls you, either immediately or at a time convenient to you.

  • Can I return my MacBook Air for a full refund

    I bought a MacBook Air on the 10th of December and I am disappointed about its lack of power especially as I was going to buy a MacBook Pro but I was advised at the apple store to get a MacBook Air as they thought it would suit my needs better. Will I be able to take the laptop back and get a full refund and use the money towards a MacBook Pro?

    No, the Apple store only has a 14 day return policy.

  • How can I make iPhone 4S Video's fill the screen when using them in iMovie 11 on My MacBook Pro

    Hey Guys.
    I am a singer songwriter from he UK.... I recently bought an Iphone4s, Ipad and Mac book pro (haha, apple hero, I know). I have always wanted to make the big jump to apple, just was waiting a little while.
    I am thrilled so far, it's all great. But, I use Imovie (i am still getting to grips with it, but the features are amazing) to make videos of me singing coversand original videos for youtube.
    The Camera on the iphone4s is great.
    But, when I import videos into Imovie11, the videos do not fill the screen in their original form.
    In some videos, I use the Ken Burns effect. Now, on the parts of my video when I use this effect, it fills the screen as it should do.
    Why do the videos in their untampered form not do this?  I have tried importing widescreen, original size, and Large, but it alwys sits in the middle of the screen, fairly thin lookin. It fills the screen when it's on my Iphone, I am very lost.
    plesse help.
    thanks.

    if i can offer any more info please just ask
