My MacBook Air 2013 is 'not compatible with Mac OS X Mountain Lion'

Hi,
I just bought a new MacBook Air 2013 yesterday.
I think there may be some driver issues with it as the graphics seem a little choppy.
I tried redownloading Mac OS X Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store but a message constantly pops up saying that Mac OS X Mountain Lion is not compatible with my computer.
Is anyone else getting this issue?

Wait until the next update, or reinstall it from the recovery partition, which is accessible by pressing the Command and R keys at startup.

You need Snow Leopard at least.

HP C5380 DVD/CD Printing Feature Not Compatible With Mac

I purchased this all-in-one specifically for the feature of printing direct to cd/dvds. Other functions work fine but this will not. After contacting HP Support I am informed that this feature is not compatible with Mac. Surely this is false advertising as nowhere on the packaging can I find any reference to this. Under specifications it shows that system requirements were Mac OSX 10.5.
Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a fix? I have searched mac support but can find no reference to this. Interested to hear other viewpoints and experiences.

Hello,
I would try printing directly on CD/DVD from the application HP Photosmart Studio.. Follow the steps below:
1. Open HP Photosmart Studio
2. Select an image from the Photosmart Studio library/browser
3. Choose "Create" in the toolbar
4. In the menu on the left, choose the following settings:
- Project: CD/DVD Label
- Label Type: CD/DVD (5 inch/120 mm)
5. Move the image from the media bar to the label, resize it if necessary
6. Click "Print" on the toolbar
Regards,
Vicarious

IPad not compatible with MAC OS X 10.4.11

I just bought an iPad and just realised that it's not compatible with MAC OS X 10.4.11 when I tried to hook it into iTunes. Therefore I will need to upgrade. C
an someone advise on what OS I should upgrade to and how? I assume Snow Leopard would be my best option, but I'm not sure if I can upgrade to this from MAC OS X 10.4.11.
Also I've never upgraded before, so will everything on my current Note Book be preserved such as iTunes library, documents, iPhoto's library etc.
Thanks in advance

I was faced with the same dilemma, and wound up upgrading to Leopard on my G5. My approach, which worked well, was to get a retail box through eBay, then upgrade online to 10.5.8.
You're always well advised to do a backup before an OS upgrade. Find many discussions about upgrading in the OS forums.

I purchased Acrobat Standard, not realizing it is not compatible with MAC. I need to exchange. I just chatted with a so-called "specialist" who told me to sign in and download the same program. I got the same blasted message. I need help. I need to exchange this program for one that is compatible with my MAC. The standard is of no use to me at all. I feel like I have been ripped off

Hi Kargi,
We are working on getting things straightened out for you. You should be hearing from a Customer Care agent shortly.
Best,

MacBook Air Camera is not connected after mac OS update

MacBook Air Camera is not connected after mac update
I have a MacBook Air OS X version - 10.9.4 . I updated my mac 1 week before but todayI check that my mac in built camera is not working Even I try to check in this thing in all the apps. Please provide the way how to sort out this issue asap.

Use the suggestions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
The SMC reset often fixes your problem.
Be sure you follow the instructions for your particular Mac model.
If your problem continues, restart Mac. Then download and install OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 Update (Combo).
If that does not correct the problem, reinstall Mac OS X.
If nothing else works, contact your Apple Service provider or Apple MacBook Support for help.

It should say which OS it works with on the side of the box (or download site) or on the manufacturers website?

HT1338 Air Port Extreme not compatible with MacBook Air/iPhone?

I have an airport extreme that only works for older Macs. It used to work with my iPhone, but has since stopped working for any iPhones and will not connect with my MacBook Air. It does connect with an older model of the Mac Book. What's up with this?

Ahh yes, that's not even a first generation.
It's possible it may have seen its day after all those years and heat. However, you could try to factory reset it, just to make sure nothings messed up in the firmware, etc.
If that still doesn't work, maybe see if a diagnostic can be done at a genius bar.

My macbook air 2013 will not find any wireless printers

My macbook air 2013 with OS X 10.9.3 will not find any wireless printers. I've tried to add printers at a number of different locations and each time it fails to find any printers despite one's being online and fully functional. I am able to print from my iPhone on these networks to the wireless printers but my macbook air won't find any at all? The macbook air is online using the wifi network no problem - just won't find any printers, please help.

You can download and run the free application Bonjour Browser. It will show whether the printer is detectable on the network. The printer should show up in one or more of the following categories:
Internet Printing Protocol
Print Spooler
Printer PDL Data Stream
Remote I/O USB Printer

My macbook air bluetooth does not pair with a bluetooth speakers!

Recently I bought this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00MPT631O?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_de tailpage_o01_s00 speakers it pairs with my Iphone 5 perfectly, but when I try to connected to my macbook air, it does not work for me it shows the following window, which cannot get connected to the speakers, thanks in advance for any help

While it appears that the Mac is discoverable, since it is not seeing the speakers, you may need to check the documentation that came with the speakers to see if they are in discovery/pairing mode, and how to get them into that mode. Then try and pair them.

CS6 not compatible with mac retina display

I recently purchased the Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium at school. (It's not the creative cloud)
Upon installing, I noticed that all of the programs are blurry. After a quick google search, it says that when a program is blurry it's not compatible with retina display.
I did an update on all the programs, and it seems like only photoshop and illustrator were updated to have retina display. The only other program I really need to be retina compatible is InDesign. I don't care about dreamweaver and such.
Anyone knows if there is an update for coming for that? Any work arounds, or who I need to contact to see what they can do? I spent a ton of money on this, and was not aware that there was a retina display issue, and my software is obviously now non-returnable.

There is nothing more to do. CS6 is now 3 years old and there simply won't be any further updates, be it just for simple technical reasons.

AirPort Extreme card not compatible with Mac Pro???

Hey,
I recently purchased my Mac Pro without thinking to include any hardware for connecting to a wireless network.
I have recently moved into a new apartment which I am keen to join to a wireless network which has just been set up by my roommate for his PC and Laptop.
I was going to buy an AirPort Extreme card, but I have read that it is not compatible with the Mac Pro. Yet when I looked at the configure process for a new mac it was listed as one of the devises offered for wireless networking!!
I am very confused...
I was wondering if anyone could help me, i just need to know what hardware i will need and how it would be installed.
thanks, all help will be greatly appreciated!
Mac Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8)

the mac pro takes a slightly different airport express card. you have to purchase it at the retail store and have them install it. in my experience they will not allow you to purchase one and install it yourself due to the difficulty of installing it. best thing to do take your macpro into a apple retail store and see what they can do.
