Do you think a magnetic cover or a car smart key could affect the Macbook Air?

I just bought a Macbook Air 11inch and I noticed that after two days the wifi is randomly disconnecting and after three days even the display was problematic, It display in only 25% of the page. Now, I get a new one but I am wondering if the problem is not the magnetic cover or my car smart key when I put the key and the Mac in my bag.

No, the neodymium gauss rating on such ceramic permanent magnets is not high.
Even a huge N50 gauss Neodymium would need direct contact to cause damage to the Macbook Air.

  • Dear apple, can you please tell me how to put my 'x' key back onto the computer properly without giving me an answer which will make me want to buy a pc like 'we WILL only replace the entire keyboard'?

    dear apple, can you please tell me how to put my 'x' key back onto the computer properly without giving me an answer which will make me want to buy a pc like 'we WILL only replace the entire keyboard'?

    My profile does say level 1 (0 points) quite obviously pointing out i am a noob at this, although i did try to correct myself in the previous responce to **macbook.
    I am confused why you think i havn't answerd michaels question though. 'I assure you the keyboard or the joining parts aren't broken and if it isn't broken i dont feel the need to replace it. '- that was me in the first responce explaining why im not buying a new one, answering the very question he asked.

  • Do you get a proper native UK keyboard with the MacBook Air?

    Hi. I was wondering if you got a proper UK keyboard like this one attached on the macbook air?

    I cannot see your illustrations above ... but:
    Go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Input Sources.  Click the "+" in the lower left.  There you can choose "British" and/or "British P.C.".

  • Can you overcharge the Macbook Air?

    I was always told with my older PC latops that "leaving it plugged in all day will drain the battery faster" and stuff like that. Nowadays, devices such as the iDevices, PSP, Vita, and Nintendo's handhelds cannot be overcharged because the charge feature stops and the device runs off of AC...but, is the Macbook Air like that too? And since I'm asking, are all Macbooks like that or is it still bad to "leave them plugged in all day" and whatnot. I like having my Air at work with me on my desk to listen to music and movies on iTunes (no speakers on my work PC), but I'm slightly paranoid about the battery..  Thanks guys.

    Check this Web site and the links from it for everything you'd ever want to know about batteries. The short form is this: The battery cannot be over charged. Plug it in and keep it plugged in so that when you go off on the road it has a full charge. When you have depleted about 80% of the charge you'll get a warning that you are on reserve power and it is time to start looking for a power plug. Do not drain the battery 100%. While you cannot overcharge the battery it isn't good to keep it plugged in all the time. At the very least unplug it and use the battery at least once or twice a month.
    Following the above advice which came from Apple my 2009 MBP battery still keeps better than 80% of its charge and has 112 cycles used. Given its age I expect the battery will probably need to be replaced before long but I'm amazed that it is doing this well after nearly 5 years of use.

  • HT1222 i have a 2010 later version of the MacBook Air, do you recommend mountain lion?

    I have a 2010 later version of the MacBook Air running Mac OS X 10.6.8.  Should I upgrade to the Mountain Lion 10.7?

    Mountain Lion is 10.8 and only costs about $20. You can bypass 10.7.
    Third party apps may need updating or upgrading as Snow Leopard is the last OS to support PPC apps.

  • Do you think Best buy would let me exchange my mbp 13 for the newer model?

    I just bought an open box mbp 13 from best buy on march 28th and now I see they have this new mbp with 2gb more ram and a better video card, not to mention double the hdd. I know they have a 14 day return policy, but do you think they would let me exchange the one I got for the newer one? Or is there some kind of exchange program through apple?

    That is just it I only got the usual 10% open box discount. Where I live you have two choices, the apple store (same 10% discount, if they have an open box, which they never did). Best buy also 10% off if open box. Still $100 is $100. But yeah $100 is not going to put me at 4gb ram, better video card, although it could get me a way better hdd then the newer model hehe. Really though that is the least of my worries. See I do photo editing of large raw files in Photoshop so memory and video card upgrades would be great. Oh well no use crying over spilled milk. Im just feeling like cinnamon toast crunch, because I could have got these upgrades for way less then what they will cost me for free virtually. Not too mention the video card is not even a possible upgrade.

  • Im an 8th year old and i am looking for a mac. I do alot of presentations and i like to have a lot of music and images. You think the macbook air is the one for me?

    Macbook air or pro? I am in 8th grade and like to hear alot of music and save alot of images which one is the one for me?

    "alot" can vary greatly depending on ones perception of the word.  However, I would recommend a non-retna model MacBook Pro so you can have the option to install a higher capacity hard drive and more ram if necessary over the years.  You can not install more ram in a MacBook Air after purchase and installing a new drive in a MacBook Air while it is under warranty would void said warranty.

  • Where do you insert a CD in the Macbook Air?

    i need to put some music in a CD from a macbook air, where do i insert the empty CD?

    If you have another Mac, you can share it's DVD drive in System Preferences > Sharing.  Then go to the MBair and use the shared drive located on the Finder's sidebar in "Remote Disc".  
    It's either that or buy an external USB optical drive.

  • I have an external drive - WD My Passport FOR MAC. I want to format it to work on both mac and windows. Which format do you think I should use? Will either one cause damage to the files on the hard drive?

    I have an external hard drive - WD My Passport FOR MAC. I want to format it to work on both mac and windows. I also want to be able to connect it to my TV and watch movies.
    I read up and I think I am supposed to use exFAT or FAT32? I also saw MS-DOS. Which format should I should use? Will any of them cause damage to the files on the hard drive?
    My little memory stick uses MS-DOS and it works on both mac and windows.
    Please can you just tell me a little about each and suggest which one to use.
    I know how to change it once you tell me so don't waste your time writing about changing it.

    Will any of them cause damage to the files on the hard drive?
    WARNING: FORMATTING A DRIVE ERASES IT COMPLETELY !!
    If you need to carry large files (e.g., larger than about 4GB) back and forth, you may need ExFAT. Otherwise MS-DOS works for smaller files.
    The Mac can Read, but not write Windows New Technology File System (NTFS) without an add-on program such as Paragon NTFS.

  • Could you please help me connect my Telstra usb internet stick to my new Macbook Air? This is my first Mac and I am really struggling!

    Hi,
    I just brought my first Mac at Christmas and I am trying to connect my Telstra usb internet stick to it.
    The Mac recognises the internet stick and the widget pops up for the stcik but then asks me to register the internet stick with this computer. I am provided with a a description on how to do this (go to Open Network Preferences > a new pop up will say New System/internet found etc), but the "new system/internet pop up never appears, so I can click on the "directIP" showing on the left hand sinde of the Open Network Preferences windon, but then I dont know where to go from there.
    Could anyone help me with a step by step (aka lamens description) of how to fix this?
    Thank you very much!

    Hey there, my experience with the Telstra USB internet dongles is a little different, don't think you need to fuss with settings and all that, it's basically designed to plug and play almost.
    When you plug it in, it should prompt you to install the Telstra utility. Have you done this? You will know because in your 'Applications' you will see a Telstra icon. You need to use this utility to connecto the internet.
    So, if you have this, simply double click it and when the utility opens, click 'Connect' and as long as the dongle can detect the network it will connect. There should not be any other configuration required.
    If that utility is not there, then install it. When you plug in the dongle, you will see it appear as a drive, should be able to just double click it and then go through the installation process.
    Failing all that, head into a telstra store and the guys there will sort it out for you quite quickly.

  • I'm using iphone 4s and after upgrading to ios 6, my facebook app seems to have lsot the 'share' button altogether, which means i cant share anything on my news feed. I cant change my profile or cover pic on fb which i could before the upgrade. Help Pls

    I'm using an iphone 4S with IOS 6. Before the upgrade I was able to share thigns from my news feed on facebook and change pictures (profile, cover) from my phone. After upgrading I cannot share or change pictures or articles. I've tried resetting my phone, deleting and re-installing fb app, but no success. Would appreciate any help, suggestions...Cheers

    I've never been able to share FaceBook posts nor seen the option using the iOS FaceBook app regardless the FaceBook app and iOS version. I can Like and I can Comment, and if I select a link or video to view under iOS 6, I can use the Share option for the link or video, but not for a post.

  • How do you remove a cd from the macbook air superdrive when it won't eject.  all is get is the option to burn a cd when i click eject

    Just bought a mini and a dvd superdrive.  was uploading pictures and one cd won't eject when I click on the eject icon.  It will display that I can burn one if I insert a cd, but won't eject the current cd.  How do you override the pop up or manually eject the  cd from the superdrive without taking it to a store or asking for a replacement?

    You can also eject a disc by restarting your computer and holding down the primary mouse button while the computer is starting up until the disc is ejected.
