Electronic book and Macbook air

I just book an electronic book on iTunes thinking I would be able to open it in my Macbook air. Apparently the app that opens this type of files is only for iPhone/IPad. Is there any app apart from ibooks that I can use? I don't have an IPad. Thanks

Not if the book has DRM.  If you upgrade your OS to 10.9 it will include the iBooks app.

  • How do I change the name I have called my MacBook Air so I can add 11" and 13" into the title of whose computer this is for more clarity when I set up Time Machine and save to it with both computers?  Both are named with "my name and MacBook Air"

    I'm still learning the whole Mac thing but these are great machines!  I purchased a MacBook Air 13" and then thought I should also get a MacBook Air 11" for travel.  When I set it up at the Apple store I told the assistant the exact same name for each machine, i.e., "my name and MacBook Air."  What I want to do is go back in and rename both of them adding the 11" and 13" designation to the name so that when I set up Time Machine or whatever else I know exactly which machine is what.  I'm sure it is very simple but I cannot seem to figure it out.  Help please. Thanks.

    Go to System Preferences - Sharing and change the computer name there. You can also, optionally, change the name of your hard drive to further clarify the origin of your backups. Click once on the "Macintosh HD" on your desktop, then click its name to allow you to edit it.

  • I have an iPhone 4S, iPad and MacBook Air.  I'm looking for an app or program where I can track time spent of specific projects each day and also document details of each project.  Is there anything available that is synced through iCloud?

    I have an iPhone 4S, iPad and MacBook Air.  I'm looking for a program or app that I can sync though iCloud that will allow me to us all of these devices to track time spent on projects each day along with the ability to add specific information about each project.  Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks!

    I recommend you consider Omnifocus.  It is a task management program which runs on the Mac, Iphone & Ipad. I use it for task management and project management.  It let's you store additional information as well.   I sync all three devices through a Mobile Me account and I can enter data on any device and it is available on all devices.  I believe you can also sync through Dropbox.  I'm not sure that you can sync through iCloud yet.  The link to their website is:  www.omnigroup.com.  There may be less expensive alternatives, but this one meets my needs and syncs very well across all devices.

  • Iphone 5C no longer syncs calendar to iPad and MacBook Air

    I am having syncing problems with my iPhone 5C to my iPad and MacBook Air. I installed the latest updates on all three devices yesterday.  Now my iPhone will only sync to my other devices when I add or delete an event on my iPhone. It does not sync when events are added or deleted on iPad or MacBook Air. When I add or delete an  event on the iPhone then all previous events syncs on my other devices to my iPhone. How do I fix this?

    Yes. I have done everything I can find on Internet. All devices are det the
    same with iCloud on, all calendars, push is on.

  • Help needed to sync apps across iMac and Macbook Air via ICloud

    I have a new Mac and I want to sync (if possible) my applications such as pic collage etc between my iMac & my Macbook Air.
    The main reason I want to do this is because I have set up templates in my macbook air apps and I want to use my iMac through the day and macbook air at night and be able to access these without doing screen share.
    I am also looking to pay someone $150 to set up a few things for me. I am in Coorparoo if anyone is interested please contact me here or at
    Thankyou

    Tracey almost any program you've purchased from the Apple App Store can be downloaded to multiple computers legally. Programs you've purchased elsewhere are typically licensed either to the user or to the computer and to be completely legal you'd need to determine which is the case for the programs you want to install on more than one computer. Most documents can be saved to iCloud (assuming you have enough space on iCloud) or other cloud services. Cloud services such as DropBox and Microsoft's OneDrive have applications that sync files automatically which allows you to share files between computers. However many (most?) applications don't automatically move templates into the cloud since they tend to be saved in the user's Library folder which often isn't synced. So templates must be dealt with on a case by case basis. (I'll often save a document that I want to use as a template and then make a fresh copy of it when I want to use it as my template)

  • Facetime between iPad2 and MacBook Air worked fine here in the USA.  The iPad2 is now in Rome, Italy and we can't connect internationally.  We both can hear the caller ringing in, but after accepting the call we cannot connect.  No voice, no video.

    I am curious if possibly the hotel has some sort of VOIP block on.  Have you tried Skype?  Did you talk to the hotel staff?  My husband is traveling to Milan in a couple of days and I wonder if he will run into the same issue.  He has had no problems from Istanbul but he is staying in a corporate apartment there.  If you find an answer please post back.  Thanks

  • Mac mini  and macbook air startup takes hours

    When I restart my mac mini, it takes approximately 16-18 HOURS to boot. During this time the grey screen is displayed with the Apple logo, and the turning wheel is turning and turning but nothing happens.
    I updated the mac mini to Mountain Lion.
    What is funny, my macbook air has exactly the same problem. So I dont think that this is a hardware related problem. My macbook air takes about 8-10 hours to restart.
    Anybody has the same experience or has a solution?
    Again, both my mac mini and macbook air have this problem.
    Thanks!!

    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
    In the Memory tab of Activity Monitor, are there a lot of Pageouts?

    Hi @Noni1948 , and welcome to the HP Forums.
    I understand that you want to remove the printer software.  I would like to assist.
    I would suggest deleting the printer from your print system, using this document: Uninstalling the Printer Software.

  • Mac Mini 10.9.2 and Macbook Air 10.9.2 WiFi SLOW!

    So I have tried and tried and tried, to no avail, to solve the super slow connectivity problems on both my Mac Mini and MacBook Air (both running updated 10.9.2).
    I have bluetooth disabled on both. I have deleted the "NetworkInterfaces.plist" and "Preferences.plist" files and rebooted. This fixes the slow connectivity, but it reverts back to slow connectivity after approximately 20 minutes!!!!
    Speeds after doing the above are 15 Mb/s on download and 50 Mb/s on upload. When the Macs are super slow, boy are they ever, running 0.5 Mb/s download and 15 Mb/s upload.
    PLEASE HELP! I'm frustrated as can be. One side note, these are speeds on my connection at work. When I take the MacBook home, my speed is just as fast even when it left the network running slow. What is the matter here and how in the world can I fix it!?

  • Os x server and macbook air

    I have a new Mac Mini Server running OS X Yosemite and the newest version of OS X Server. I also have a new iMac and MacBook Air both running Yosemite, the iMac connected to the server fine. On the other hand the MacBook Air keeps giving me a 9007 error code. I have researched and tweaked settings all over on both the server and the MacBook Air, but still it does not want to join the server. Any idea what I am missing?

    One of the more common problems with flaky behavior involves either not setting up local DNS services — trying to use or reference off-LAN DNS servers — or not having the client reference the local DNS server — or referencing other and additional and off-LAN DNS servers — which means DNS verifications are usually one of the first things to try.   Or other DNS-level errors.  OS X Server really wants local DNS, if you're on a NAT'd network as is typical.
    After that, see if the IP network is configured properly.  For a simple network, ensure that there's just subnet and just one DHCP server and just one gateway router.
    Launch Console.app and have a look at what gets logged, both on the client and on the server.  If anything.

  • I have the Numbers-applications on both Mac mini and Macbook Air. My problem is that they don't sync so when I create a Numbers-file on the MacBook  while travelling, it will not be on my Mac mini when I get home :(((

    Hey iWeb plubishing problems,
    I would first check to make sure that you meet the system requirements for OS X to support Documents in the Cloud. For that your Mac’s needs to be running at least OS X Lion 10.7.5 or later to make sure that everything syncs. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • For Macbook pro Retina and Macbook Air Users Please Help

    Hi
    i Want Ask Macbook pro Retina and Macbook Air Users how use this macs both ( Only how use  both )
    we sit many hours on laptop that will hurt our eyes
    what the macbook less strain on eyes
    what the best macbook screen not hurt our eyes
    sorry my english is not good but i hope you understand me
    i want only users how use the both of this macs
    thank you

    People are different.  Not everyone experiences eye strain with an LED/LCD screen, or with a retina screen or any other kind of screen.  Some people do.
    So no one here can possibly say how you will feel using either one - everyone is different.
    You need to find some display models or something and try them yourself and see what you like and how you feel using them.  Anything anyone here has experienced is immaterial - all that matters is what you expereince and we cannot predict that for you.
    I stare at computer screens all day long, and have done so for many, many years now.  I've never had a problem with matte LCD, glossy LCD (like my MBP), CRT, plasma or page white.  About the only problem I've ever had is occasionally dry eye, since everyone tends to blink less when concentrating on anything backlit for long periods of time.  Simple artificial tears deals with that, and just learning to stagger regular breaks.
