Any way to charge mac book air with another charger

I am trying to help my aunt with her mac book air, but she didn't sent it with the charger.  I have loads of chargers for our mac book pros, phones and Ipads.  Does anyone know a way to either use those chargers or connect the devices to work off their batteries temporarily?

You can use any of the chargers from your MacBook Pros that have a Magsafe connector.  It won't hurt the Air.

  • I have a 2nd gen Mac book air with Lion. The hard disk has filled up even though i keep my data , music etc on hard drive . I used disk inspector to find where problem was and it is 20GB in the hidden files under the user directory can i resolve this ?

    I have a 2nd Gen MAc book Air with Lion .  The 60GB hard disc has quickly filled up despite me keeping most of my data on a portable hard drive .  I used disk inspector to locate the problem but found that it was was in 20 GB of hidden files in my user directory .  Is this correct and is there anything i can do about it ? Using disk inspector you can not see individual hudden diretories or files. I did unhide them but there is a mass of diretories etc and so no way i could see if this is one or multiple files using the space. Library System and  Applications are at 4 3 and 3 GB respectvely.  The data I actually keep on there is 9GB    Thanks for any help

    I think the problem is Quick Time Player. I am using OS 10.6.8 by the way.
    I tried it out again.
    I had about 26 GB of space before I played an .avi video.
    After the movie started to play (it was slow to load), I got a warning message that my startup disk was full. I opened Disk Utility and it told me I had no space left (about 20 MB or something like that was left).
    I watched to the end of the movie.
    Then I quit Quicktime Player.
    And I shut down the computer.
    I turned on the computer and checked Disk Utility. I have about 26 GB of space.
    I think for some reason Quicktime Player uses up a lot of the disk space when it runs movies that are problematic. This movie I was watching did not open with vlc.
    I normally use vlc to watch movies.
    Probably it doesn't use up this much space when the movie is OK.
    I think there's a problem with this particular movie. It is about 50 MB so it's not that big a file. I watch .smi subtitles with it. The Quicktime Player automatically loads the subtitle file in this case because the subtitle file has the same name as the movie file.
    I watched about 10 movie files from the same series that I downloaded together and did not have any problem watching them. I watched them on vlc. But this latest movie had problems I think (as I repeat). It did not load on vlc even though I waited for a minute, and normally movies load instantly on vlc. 
    So I think that movie file caused problems. It made QT player use up a lot of hard disk space.
    I had better avoid watching that movie in the future. I don't want it to wreck my hard drive.
    So to sum up, everything is back to normal. I have the hard disk space that I should have. However, I am scared of damaging my hard drive due to shonky movie files that eat up all the space when they are played using QT player, and so I will not watch those files in the future, as I do not know why the files do that.

    how can i buy mac book air with Arabic keyboard

    Nobody here represents Apple or any store.  To find out whether you can buy something, you need to contact a store directly yourself.  Since you didn't say where you live, it's hard to even suggest a store.  Of course you can buy what you want from stores that sell to Arabic speaking countries, like

    If you are in the US, you can try asking an Apple retail store if they can make a special order for one for you.

    I just purchased Elements. Can I install it both on my imac and mac book air with the same serial number?

    Yes. You can install v12 on as many machines as you like, but only two can be activated at any one time. You should not be using them concurrently.

  • USB Ethernet Adapter for 2011 Mac Book Air with Lion OS 10.5.8

    I just bought a new Mac Book Air with the Lion OS. I need a USB ethernet adapter for it. I am unclear if any of the Apple or non Apple products listed on line or EBay will work on this new computer with Lion OS. Please advise on purchasing wither a Apple product or a Ebay non Apple product which ar e half price.

    Yep. Any such adaptor should work. All they need do is comply with basic USB 2.0 protocols and they will work on virtually any computer that has a USB 2.0 port.

  • I have a Mac Book Air with 10.6.8. Is Montain Lion my only update option? Is it a must do?

    I have a Mac Book Air with 10.6.8. Is Montain Lion my only update option? Is it a must do? Thanks

    You can also get Lion, but personally, I think Mountain lion is what Lion was supposed to be.
    In any case, there is absolutely no reason for you to get either one; Snow Leopard is a nice and reliable OS - of course, if you want any of the added features of the newest OS, then you will have to buy and install it.
    So, the decision is up to you. Also note: any older PPC apps that still worked on Snow Leopard will no longer work on the new OS - you'd have to purchase upgrades if one is available.

  • HT5219 Can I use 2 displays when I connect a 1920x1080 display through Thunderbolt to the 27 cinema display when it´s connected to the all new 13" Mac Book Air with thunderbolt?

    Can I use 2 displays when I connect a 1920x1080 display through Thunderbolt to the 27 cinema display when it´s connected to the all new 13" Mac Book Air with thunderbolt?

    Thank you, I have read that I could daisy chain the HD RAID enclosure on one of the thunderbolt ports with another monitor, if the monitor were at the end of the chain, but I do not know if the other port would still simultaneously support yet another external display at the same time.

  • HT3669 Canon laser printer LBP7750C and a Mac Book Air with OS X 1.8.4??

    Hi! I have a Canon laser printer LBP7750C and a Mac Book Air with OS X 1.8.4, but I can't get it to function. After installning the printer, via Ethernet network (Apple Time Capsule) and IP-number, it seems to connects ok but can't print. Anyone has a solution or tip? Thanks!

    One possible cause for your symptom is the printer driver you are using. If you have installed the Postscript (PS) driver but your LPB7750 does not have the PS kit installed, then this can stop a document from printing. So I would suggest you download and install the UFR2 v10.10 driver.
    If you are using the UFR2 driver then the other cause for this symptom is the IP protocol. This driver and the PS driver must be configured using the LPD protocol. If you have selected IPP or HP Jetdirect when creating the print queue, then this will stop you from printing. So remove the printer from Print & Scan and add it again, this time selecting LPD for the protocol.
    Another cause can be you have the wrong IP address. To check that the address is correct, type the IP address into a web browser. This will result in a connection to the internal web page of the printer if the IP address is correct.

    super keyword is used when there is inheritance (class extending other class). In your particular case, super keyword doesn�t make sense, since there isn�t inheritance between A and B. You can use the INT field by an instance of A class.
    a keyword like "parent" does not exist in java.
