  • Correct connection for Mac book air to sharp aquos smart tv

    II'm almost positive I need a mini display adapter, but have read contradicting statements in the forums.
    the following link will show the connections available on my tv on the second picture down.
    http://www.sharpusa.com/ForHome/HomeEntertainment/LCDTV/Models/LC70SQ15U.aspx

    The connection on a PPC Mac mini is DVI. It comes with a DVI to VGA adapter. You do not need to use the adapter if you just get a DVI to HDMI cable. If you haven't updated the mini to Leopard, you may want to for best results. You will also probably want to upgrade the RAM in the mini to the maximum possible (1gb). This will allow you the best resolution you can get from the mini to the TV.

  • What is the best way to connect a mac book air to 27 inch acer display?

    I am currently connecting through a USB docking station and the monitor flickers.  I am unable to view a slideshow on the display in Keynote due to VRAM possibly being low.  Slideshow works fine on the Air.

    I want to buy a hard disk (not a NAS device) and plug it into my Airport Extreme in order to share data between two Mac computers, and to stream iTunes content to my Apple TV.
    One option is to purchase a hard drive (say, a 2TB Hitachi G-Technology drive) and connect it to the USB port on the back of the Apple Extreme. The other option is to purchase a drive with an ethernet connection (say, a 2TB Lacie drive) and connect it to an ethernet port on the Apple Extreme.
    In the second case what you'd have actually is a NAS. Apple's AirPort routers aren't known for fast file sharing. The NAS option might be faster.
    Is either option better for streaming movies from the hard drive to my Apple TV?
    I could be wrong, but an AppleTV may not be able to access content directly from a network drive. It may require that a Mac serve as an intermediary.

  • How do I connect Mac Book Air with HD TV No Apple Tv available

    I am looking for a cable or connection from Mac Book Air to an HD TV. I ant to have the movies on the TV screen. But I don't want to buy an Apple TV.

    Hey vickitaunus,
    Thanks for the question. Your MacBook Air has a Thunderbolt port that can be used to connect Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cables. We have a few offerings in our store:
    Cables - Mac Accessories - Apple Store (U.S.)

    You can also use our handy Cable Chooser tool in our Online Store:

  • Mac book air connection to tv problem

    I am having an issue with connection my mac book air to my tv. I am using a thunderbolt / Mini Displayport to HDMI adapter to connect to an sony TV. The computer screen shows up on the tv but both the tv and computer screens keep on blinking and changing resolutions. Is there an easy fix to this? The mac book has  an operating system of OS X 10.9.3 and the sony tv is a Bravia.

    If I were having this issue, I'd try all the resolutions, plus I'd disconnect the cable and/or restart after every one, but that's just me, I like to try anything that might work.

  • Slow wifi on mac book air.. is this normal? (airdrop)

    when using airdrop to send from mac book air (11 inch mid 2011) to a mac book pro (13 inch mid 2011) the wifi airdrop transfers seem very slow. a 5 gig file took 30 minutes to airdrop. when i was at my brothers house and i sent 11 gigs to his imac (unsure which model maybe 2009 <- before thunderbolt) it took 3 hours.
    i thought maybe this was airdrops fault, so i connected this mac book air to my mac mini (mid 2010) using airdrop, it also took 30 minutes for 5 gigs.
    so i made a manual WEP adhoc connection on channel 48, it also took 30 minutes for 5 gigs. i then tried copying files from another laptop (a dell)
    and the 5 gig file copied at the full 300 mbps (or abouts) maybe 5 minutes to the macmini
    whats going on here??? is this normal for the mac book air?? do i have a bum wireless card?? i was going to ask a genius to switch out the wifi card or check the antennas but i thought i would post here to see if anyone else has problems
    when copying to the mac book pro or the imac i made sure that both computers were connected at 2.4 to different networks, to make sure that 2.4 was
    tied up, figuring the simulataneous airdrop connection would prefer 5 ghz. ive seen it sometimes airdrop on the same machines on the same network and taking longer because it was a 802.11g network.

    seems like any of the 2 computers on at 2.4 ghz (even on different networks) slows down airdrop. but havingboth computers wifi cards on but not connected to anybody, speeds up airdrop dramatically.
    sending from air to mini (air = 5 ghz wifi) mini (2.4 wifi) airdrop speed 12 gigs in 1 hour
    sending from air to mini (air = 5 ghz wifi) mini (not connected) air drop speed 12 gigs less then 30 minutes
    sending from air to mini (both at 2.4 ghz) 4 hours
    sending from air to imac (both at 2.4 ghz on two different networks ) 4 hours

  • Mac Book Air (mid 2013 thunderbolt) to a 30 inch 2560x1600

    my internet connection is ok, mail is ok, but app store after 3 resets does not recognize my ID and it says "connection is not possible". Why? I have the same problem in both my mac mini late 2009 and mac book air 2010? Is it a problem of 10.7.4 update? I have to solve this problem and how can i return to 10.7.3 if my last backup was not with 10.7.3???thank you for your kind collaboration...

  • I have a mac book air 11". When I boot up connected to the huge Thunderbolt  screen it detects the detects the fact and gives me great quality. now I am travelling away from the scree it boots up, nice picture, then switches to rubbish resolution.

    I have a Mac Book air 11". Normally at home I connect this to a large Thuderbolt Screen. When booting up it some times gets confused and offers me a low resolution result, but some plugging and unplugging of the screen fixes this. I assume it sometimes "sees" the big screen and sets the resolition accordingly. Sometimes does not. But now... I am away from big screen and cannot get the Macbook air on its one to deliver anything other than really poor resolution. I ahve done displays and chosen all three - but no better. And I have said Choose the Best ONe... again not luck. Any ideas. I read in back posts this was a problem a few years ago.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    I believe you have a failing GPU (aka Video Card). Run AHT and see what it tells you. Do not be afraid to run it up to three times in succession if at first it does not detect an error (sometimes errors that are caused by overheating will not show up until the computer is stressed enough - repeating AHT will do that).
    As an aside - the MBA was not designed to take the place of a desktop. If you are powering your MBA by leaving it permanently attached to the thunderbolt port on the monitor you are shortening your battery life.

  • I recently purchased a time capsule and thought I would put my itunes on it as an external drive as my mac book air only has 120gb. However I can not be connected to the internet and the TC at the same time in order to download the files to the TC. Help?

    I recently purchased a Time Capsule and put my iTunes library on there so that I wasn't using up my hard drive space. Only 120gb on my mac book air. However when I download songs from iTunes I can not be connected wirelessly to the internet at the same time. Can I hard wire my TC in to my mac so that I can treat the TC as just an external hard drive? Thanks

    Initially, you asked if you can hardwire your MBA to the TC. The answer is yes, by using the optional USB Ethernet adapter that Apple provides. However, in order for your MBA to access the TC's internal or USB-attached HDD, it would need to establish a network connection to it. This would be true of any NAS device on an Ethernet network. Therein, lies the problem. Your MBA cannot connect to two networks simultaneously.
    One option then, would be to have two separate iTunes Media folders; one on the MBA & the other on the TC. This way, you can download the music to your MBA when connected to the Internet at the AirPort lounge, and then use iTunes Consolidate Library feature to transfer the audio files to the TC's iTunes Media Folder location. A great program to help maintain multiple iTunes Librarys and/or Media Folders, that you may want to consider, is PowerTunes.

  • My mac book air can't start installation, because i use windows installation in DOS to make partion, now no mac os on it. How to get back the mac os? i have a window based iso image from a friend, because in my country there is no Apple service.

    It sounds like you destroyed your boot partition and the recovery partition.  Depending on it's age, your MacBook Air might be able to do a net boot.  Plug and ethernet connection into it and attempt to boot.  If it has the right firmware, it will find a net boot configuration on the net and boot that.  Then it will give you a Recovery Partition like display and allow you to reinstall the OS X version that came with it.... assuming that it was Lion or ML.  If your computer came with Snow Leopard, then even the net boot won't work. 
    At that point you need a bootable USB Key, or an external DVD drive AND a Snow Leopard installation DVD. 
    An Apple Store, if there is one nearby, MAY be able to get you going again.  However, whatever is on the SSD now will be toast too.

  • Airplay between mac book air and apple TV

    I just purchased apple TV and I have a mac book air purchased earlier in the year. I am unable to connect the mac to the TV. No devices are detected in airplay mirroring in display settings. They are both connected to the same wifi. Both are on.

    If you're not seeing an Airplay icon next to the TimeMachine icon on your top toolbar to the left of your clock, then the MacBook isn't seeing the AppleTV.
    What type of hardware are you using for WIFI connectivity?  Some have issues passing the necessary multicast packets to make AirPlay and other Apple connectivity work on the network.  Usually all-in-one modem/router devices from carriers like Comcast have been known to have these issues. (Arris gateways from them will not work with AirPlay or AirPrint protocols.)
