Can I take off the keyboard from a Macbook air?

I would like to use my macbook air as just a screen and use an external keyboard and trackpad. I want to use the Macbook in 90 degree view and it is uncomfortable to use it like that when the keyboard is right there. Is there a way that I can remove the hinges from the screen and the keyboard part and fold the macbook in a backwards position or remove the keyboard entirely- if I can remove the keyboard entirely what parts do I keep?

Sebastian,
The Mac Mini is essentially, for practical measure, a MacBook Air homologue for non-portable, desktop use. It is a basic Mac Computer for which you buy and use an external keyboard, mouse, and monitor. You don't use a tablet as a monitor, unless there is an app which might afford that functionality to the tablet device. Since both devices you mention are non-apple, you might consult a forum in which those products are more familiar. But perhaps there may be users here who might have insight.

  • How can I turn off the sound from the original midi  or audio tracks when I turned on the duplicate tracks for editing ?

    How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I edit or listen to the duplicate tracks in Logic Pro 9 ?
    I'm using iMac desktop with Mac OS X Version 10.7.3. Pls advise.

    Dan,
    It sounds like one of your preferences has changed.
    Go to preferences > audio > general, and make sure "track mute/solo" is set to "CPU saving (slow response)". It is probably set to "Fast " at the moment.
    This setting (fast) basically causes immediate muting from the channel strip while your song is in play. This is because the audio is still being read from the hard drive, but the channel strip is simply muted.... like a hardware mixer. When set to "CPU saving", the audio from that track, when muted, is actually stopped from streaming from the hard drive, but there is a couple second delay before the audio is actually muted.
    One would think that the fast setting is generally preferable, except when you need to do what you are doing. The only way to keep duplicate copies of channel strips acting independent of one another is to leave this setting on the "CPU saving" setting.
    Hope that helps

  • How can you take off the volume limit?, How can you take off the volume limit?

    How can you take off the volume  limit on iPod touch ?

    Which "volume limit" do you mean?
    All iPods have a volume limit feature that you can set yourself and on your iPod, go into Settings/Music/Volume Limit. There, you can set the volume limit to maximum, which is the same as turning it off.
    However, if you mean the EU (European Union) volume restriction, on all iPods sold inside the EU, you cannot turn that off.

  • Satellite P205-S6277: Can I take off the battery and connect the power too?

    I am working on my notebook Toshiba satellite P205-S6277, 80% of my time at home.
    Can I take off the battery and connect the power to a backup UPS in order to make battery life longer?
    I can charge it once a week.

    Of course you can do this. You can remove the battery and work on AC power supply only. Be sure there is no dust on the desk and the battery place on the notebook stay clean for further usage.
    Bye

  • Can I use my iPad mini to extend the display from my Macbook Air?

    Is there a way to utilize my ipad mini wifi, to extend the display from my Macbook Air?

    There is no need to charge it before you first use it.  You cannot run the battery too low as the system will shut the device off before that happens to protect the battery.
    Generally speaking, your Lithium battery will have the longest useable life if you avoid deep cycles.  Since you can plug and unplug it as you wish, the best thing to do is just charge it up (however much) whenever it is convenient to do so (whether it is 10% discharged, or 20% or 50% - basically don't pay any attention to the battery level, just plug it in when it is convenient to do so to keep the battery topped up).  And try to avoid frequent deep cycles where you run it all the way or very near to the point it auto-shuts off.

  • Can I use a power cord from a Macbook air with a Macbook?

    Can I use a power cord from a Macbook air with a Macbook?

    No, the MacBook Air power adapter is a 45 watt. A MacBook needs at least a 60 watt power adapter although you can use a MacBook Pro 85 watt adapter. You can use a higher wattage adapter without any problems.

  • How can I take off my messages from my iPhone without deleting them

    I want to take off my messages from my iPhone 4, but I don't want to delete them.  Is there a way to take them off and save them somewhere.

    You can do it, but you need another library signed in to iTunes match. That second library shouldn't have any local files stored.
    Delete the entry from that second library and it will ask you to confirm that you want to remove the file from the cloud. Confirm that you do.
    Now, as long as you don't delete the file from your main library it will have an iCloud status of "removed" and won't be in the cloud or try add it again.
    However, if you sign out of match on that computer and then sign in again it will then re-add it to the cloud, so this isn't a method to use if you tend to turn match on and off much.
    I have had the Beatles Mono albums in my main library, but not in the cloud, for a while now without any problems.

  • Re: reversing and take off the amount from asset

    Hi Experts,
    i have an asset of 10,000
    and legal fee is added to asset 500.90. so totally the value is 10,500.90
    end of the year the auditor told to take away the legal fee from the asset b.sheet-111(recon a/c)
    dr gl-123 adjustment(p&l) 500.00
    cr gl-111 shoplot(recon) 500.00
    so when i am posting ab01 to take off that amount from system says through 190 T/Types the following error coming 'line item causes scrap value of 1.00 to be violated'.
    Diagnosis
    The book value of the asset is below the the cut-off value in the amount of 1.00000.
    Procedure
    Check your entries for the amount, transaction type and cut-off value specifications, such as memo value, scrap value or cut-off value percentage rate.
    so if anybody face the same error give me your inputs.
    thanks in advance,
    kk

    You must erase the drive and reinstall Mac OS X. If your Mac came with DVDs:
    1. Insert the Mac OS X disc and press C key while your Mac is starting.
    2. Go to Utilities > Disk Utility, select Macintosh HD in the sidebar and erase the drive.
    3. Install Mac OS X. When the installation finishes, turn off the computer.
    If your computer didn't come with DVDs:
    1. Press Command, Option and R keys while your computer is starting and open Disk Utility.
    2. Select Macintosh HD in the sidebar and erase the disk.
    3. Install Mac OS X. When the installation finishes, turn off your Mac
