Hi jenette,
If you are having issues using an HDTV via HDMI as an external display to your MacBook Air, you may find the following article helpful:

(Note: You will generally only see the arrangement option in Displays when you are configured to use the external display in Extended Desktop mode; there is no arrangement in Mirroring as both screens are showing the same image.)

Is the display turned on? Sometimes it is the simplest of solutions, when details are missing.

How to factory reset Macbook Air with Mavericks

I work at a pawn shop and have a Macbook air with OS X 10.9 installed. I need to be able to reset this, so the previous owner's information is not compromised before selling it. When powering on the Mac I am unable to use any boot commands to get to terminal or recovery options because a screen with a lock and a password entry box show up. How can I bypass this to reset the mac?
Thanks

I have addressed the issue with the other team members going forward, but I still have potentially 1-4 months of affected inventory...which is potentially a huge financial loss.
I don't doubt that this particular machine was tested before it was purchased, but if the general assumption was, passwords are no big deal, we can just boot to recoery mode and reset the mac later, then this would have been no cause for concern.
either way, I have to find away around this for my current inventory. I will get some torx screw drivers and try removing the ram.
thank you

How to connect my MacBook air to my iphone?

I want to connect my MacBook Air to my iPhone (AT&T).

Unless you plan on setting up Personal Hotspot, you can't. File transfer by bluetooth is not supported.

I bought an HDTV cable to connect my MacBook Pro to my Sony TV via HDMI so I could watch videos from my computer on my TV. My TV then shows my basic computer background but the videos won't play. What am I doing wrong?

I bought an HDTV cable to connect my MacBook Pro to my Sony TV via HDML. The TV recognizes my computer; I see my basic computer screen on the TV. I tried to watch videos on my TV but got nothing. (tried via my facebook vidoes and Youtube. What am I doing wrong?

I've got a similar (but different!) problem: I have a MacBookPro3,1 running Mac OS X 10.6.8. I want to connect to my HD TV using a HDMI to DVI cable but the MBP cannot detect the TV display. What's the solution? Is this a bug in Mac OS X 10.6.8 ? Any ideas what I can do to make things work with the HDMI to DVI cable. (N.B.: I have separate audio cable running from the MBP to amplified speakers for the sound side of things. It’s the video that’s the problem!)

How can i connect my macbook air with lion os to a windows 7 pc

Hi I wondered if anyone could help me as i am new to apple pc's
I have recently got a macbook air and i am trying to have file sharing with both pc's unfortunately whatever i try does no allow both pc's to see each other. If i try the connect to server method using smb then log in screen just shakes and wont accept a valid login offer. The windows pc also does not see the mac in the network which i guess does not help. On several forums there is a suggestion that this used to work on earlier versions of apple os
Any help would be most appreciated Thankyou

On the OS X side it's very simple, System Preferences - Sharing - checkmark File Sharing box and then choose the Users and Shared Folders. On the MS Windows side you will need to turn that on too, however I don't use Windows so I can't help. However I was able to find this simple 15 step (saracasm intended) page:

I have 2 Apple Cinema LED Displays (no Thunderbolt) and a new Macbook Air (with Thunderbolt). Is there a way to connect both of these monitor to my Macbook Air?

I'm trying to use 2 older Apple Cinema LED Displays in a Dual Monitor configuration with my Macbook Air. It is a new macbook air and supports Thunderbolt.

Look for minidisplay connectors/adapters that that fit the inputs on the display, such as this example:

Macbook air with thunderbolt display - windows stuck on air's display

I have a Macbook Air and a Thunderbolt display. When I use the Air without the Display attached, the windows gather on the Air's display. When I return to the setup with the Display included, some of the windows remain on the Air's screen making it impossible to get to them without opening the Air and manually moving the windows around. The Air is tucked under the display, and opening it to move the windows back to the Thunderbolt Display is a PITA.
Despite the lid being closed (and never having been opened after waking from sleep/connecting the Thunderbolt Display) the Displays control panel still sees that display as active.
I cannot find a way of moving the windows back to the main screen unless I'm lucky enough to grab the right spot to move the windows to the larger display.
1. How do I get the Mac to recognize the Air's lid is closed, and to disable the built in display?
2. If that's not possible, how do I use Mission Control (where I can see the windows) to get the windows moved to the right screen?

I have no idea where that dirt came from. I really have no clue what it is, and it won't go away by blowing in it. I will contact local authorized store (there is no Apple stores in Croatia) but I highly doubt they'll be able to do anything without taking the laptop apart. Although I highly doubt it could it be rust from cleaning my MBP? I always put a couple drops of water on cloth I clean my macbook casing with. I have no idea if I am going to be able to do anything at all because the gap is really small, pin couldn't get to that dirt. I don't know what that could be, I never eat or drink close to my mac. Just my luck. What's Q Tip? Never heard of it since I live in Croatia

How to resell a MacBook Air with liquid damage

I have a MacBook Air that won't turn on due to liquid damage. (It was turned on when it happened so I'm afraid that the liquid got in and did quite a bit of damage even though I did dry it off.) Before that, however, it was in excellent condition. The price of Apple restoring it to warranty is high enough that I prefer to buy a new computer instead of having it fixed. What I'm now wondering is what kind of resale value it has, e.g. to someone who could mine it for parts. What parts might still be of use? And what's the best way to clear the hard drive to protect my data? Is clearing the hard drive an easy job in spite of the fact that it won't turn on?
Thanks in advance for any advice someone more tech savvy than me can offer!

EVERY part is still of good use.
~~best way to clear the hard drive to protect my data?
You should take the bottom plate off and remove the SSD (see ifixit.com video)
your private data is still extremely likely 100% retrievable from same.
Your AIr has a SSD ,not a hard drive.

damaged / dead Air fetch a "lot" on ebay, theyre needed for parts...... and are in high demand.
Repair people out there are looking for your parts!
Ebay.com has dead macbook Airs that suffered catastrophic spills, drops, etc.
sell it there.

How do I restore MacBook Air with time machine

I've done backups to time machine but have no clue how to restore. I have a problem with Open Office hanging up and it doesn't help to delete it and download again.

From Apple support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
To restore individual files see Restoring specific files or folders.
Restoring your entire system from a backup
Hold down the Command and R keys at startup to start the computer from the Recovery system. The Recovery menu that appears includes the option to restore from a Time Machine backup. If you are using Mac OS X Snow Leopard, start your computer from the installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility.
