Can the Macbook Air model MD760HN/B be used for developing iOS apps?

Hi,
I'm planning to learn iOS Apps Development and I am planning to buy the Macbook Air Model - MD760HN/B.
My question is - Is this model fit enough to develop apps using XCode?
The retailer says the OS is Mac OS X Mavericks, there is no version written.
I am planning to develop using Swift Language so let me know if this is possible as well using the above stated Model Number.
Yes, I have created an Apple Developer Account already as an iOS Developer.
Looking forward for your valuable replies.
I hope Mac is better than Windows (using since Windows 95) - (Hate Windows 8)
Thanks in advance.

This sounds to me like the MacBook Air mid-2013 model with a 13" display and core i5 processor built for sale in India.
Yes, this should be fine for writing Swift code.
The current Apple operating system is OS X Mavericks version 10.9.5. If your computer comes with Mavericks installed, you can always update to the current version by opening the App Store and clicking "Updates" near the top right.

Can the macbook air do everything my pro does?

can the macbook air do everything my pro does?

Yes but slower, depending on how old your pro is. The cpu in the air models are slower then what is in the pro models. Slower cpu mean that everything works slower.

Can the MacBook Air work with any other type of internet connection beside wifi?

Can the MacBook Air work with any other kind of internet connection besides Wifi?

Who? ITS VERY important when doing a restore, in fact you DO NOT want to do a wifi restore
The pros all have that Ethernet adapter,... that should tell you something. An Ethernet restore via that "thing" makes restoring the OSX about 8X faster.
Its called a Gigabit Ethernet adapter for a reason.
"who the heck" is anyone working with their Macbook Air at home and want a MUCH FASTER download / internet connection.
*Stockbrokers who pack their Macbook Air, arrive at work and plug that "hardwired" dongle to their Air........ because even seconds in the stock market can make the difference between losing a million $$, or making a million $$
So now you know WHY,.....before you didnt.

Can the Macbook Air be used as a display monitor for Xbox 360 ???

Hi Guys,
Basically I was just wondering if the Macbook Air 11'' can be used a display monitor for the Xbox 360 due to me smashing my TV... Ooops.
I tried with a thunderbolt to HDMI socket and then plugged that into my Xbox with no luck ! If it is possible in some way could you please explain what parts are need and how it would need to be set up.
Many Thanks,
Dan

Yes, via Target Display Mode.

Can the MacBook Air be backed up using Clone softward and an external hard drive?

I want to find the best way for a new college student to back up her MacBook Air files. Can she use cloning software and an external hard drive? I'm unclear if the Air supports attaching an external hard drive.

The computer should be cloned using Disk Utility, so no additional software is required. However, it's preferable to incrementally update the clone using backup software. I would recommend using one of the following. They each have different capabilities and features. Each can be used for a free trial period. My personal preference is Carbon Copy Cloner. All of them can make and maintain bootable clones.
Suggested Backup Software
1. Carbon Copy Cloner
2. Get Backup
3. Deja Vu
4. SuperDuper!
5. Synk Pro
6. Tri-Backup
Others may be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore. Also read How to Back Up and Restore Your Files.
Clone Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion using Restore Option of Disk Utility
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
     1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
         button.
     2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
     3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
     4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
         to the Destination entry field.
     5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
         the Source entry field.
     6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
An excellent source of external drives is OWC.

Switching to the cinema display by closing the macbook air

the nice feature of switching to the cinema display by closing the macbook air and reopening it to use the keyboard with a black (mb air-)screen -e.g.for shortcuts in CS5 or Cad -doesn't work any longer using OS X Lion which is quite annoying. Has anyone found a solution for this problem apart from the 'option with the magnet' ?
this keyboard shortcut puts both displays in hibernation mode
is there a keyboard shortcut which only puts the macbook (air) screen ( under Lion) to sleep ?
if not, this would be a helpful update for everyone using the mac with photoshop or autocad where keyboard shortcuts are constantly needed and handling would be far easier with all windows & task bars on the cinema display only.
Alternatively, has anyone a clue how to put the task bar from the macbook screen to the cinema display ?

I dont know about the putting the screens to sleep, but as far as the task bar goes, when you have both screens running you can go in to display settings and you should see both screens, you can drag the task bar from the air screen to the cinema display.

How can I tell if I got one of the new updated MacBook Air models?

Hello,
I bought a new MacBook Air this week (6 May 2014 to be precise) after the announcement was made of a minor update to the processor which is supposed to extend battery life. When I check its serial number, however, I expected to see "Early 2014", but instead it identifies as a "Mid 2013" model. Is this correct? And if so, how do I know whether or not I got one of the updated models?
Specs in attached screenshot.
Thanks in advance,
Lee

I am having the same exact issue. I thought the reason might be because my customized version which has a 1.7 Ghz Core i7 is the same processor as the mid-2013 models. However in looking at some other posts online people with customized versions that have 8 GB of memory are having the same issue, even if their processor is the 1.4 Ghz Core i5 which is only included in the early 2014 models.
They Early-2014 Models came out on April 29th 2014, and looking at my serial number you can see that my computer was made AFTER that date.
There are however computers that show do Early 2014 such as the MacBook Air in this unboxing video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjkrv2-kwCs
What's interesting is the computer in the video was made BEFORE mine (from the serial number) yet it shows as newer in Apple's system
Now I have seen some posts indicating that apple will fix this issue via an update, however it is NOT just a software issue but also an issue in Apple's computer systems
If I look my device up on https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
It shows as a mid-2013 Model, whereas if I look up the MBA in the YouTube unboxing it shows as an early 2014.
I really hope Apple fixes this, I have spoken with managers at two Apple Retail stores and they offered to exchange my device within the return period, but I have yet to have gotten a chance to head over, I will likely within a day or two.

No, at least you can't do it.

I want to use my Macbook Air 2011 as an external disk for my iMac 2011. I connected the two with a Thunderbolt cable and when starting the MacBook Air I pressed "T" and it worked except with Office documents. Can anybody help?

I want to use my MacBook Air as an external disk to my iMac. I talked to Apple care and we solved it by connecting a Thunderbolt cable between the two computers. I then turn on the MacBook Air while pressing the "T" and it works. I can sit and work on my iMac and grab/change/save the files that are in my MacBook Air EXCEPT for the Microsoft Office files. I called Microsoft and they can't solve it. They say it might be a problem with the Thunderbolt cable. Has anybody have this problem?
Both computers are 2011 and they both have Office 2011.
Thanks in advance,
Alejandra

For Word it says "Word cannot open this document. The document might be in use, the document might not be a valid Word document, or the file name might contain invalid characters (for example, /)"
For Excel it says "the file could not be found. Check te spelling of the filename, and verify that the file location is correct. If you are trying to open the file from your list of most recently used files on the File menu, make sure hat the file has not been renamed, moved or deleted.
I tried this with many different documents, and I always get the same message.

Why my Toshiba mobile hard drive (1TB) can not be used in the macbook air?

Why my Toshiba mobile hard drive (1TB) can not be used in the macbook air?

If you are speaking of the USB 3.0 Canvio, you are not alone. Call Toshiba and check on their progress in alleviating the problem. I heard they are blaming Apple, but since theirs is the only drive that exhibits this problem, I think the burden is on Toshiba.
Some users have reported that by using a micro USB 2.0 connector (see bottom picture), instead of the 3.0 that comes with the drive, that it is a workaround. Notice that the 3.0 connector has sort of a "dual head" nature to the construction. One part of it is 2.0 USB micro compatible. I've never tried it myself though.
