Got a new MacBook AIR

Trying to install my copy of Lightroom 4. It is an UPGRADE, I have my serial number within Adobe and it works. Problem is, after accepting my upgrade seriel number, I am being asked for the original serial number.... Are you kidding, how many do I need to keep??? I have no clue, I only keep up with the most recent.... HELP!

If you enter an upgrade serial number, you will always be asked to enter a serial number from an earlier qualifying version. That's standard Adobe policy for all upgrades for all products. Other software vendors are the same.
Since all previous versions of Lightroom are currently eligible to upgrade to LR4, you can enter any previous version serial number.

In terms of how many you need to keep, one from the most recent eligible version that you own is enough. Same applies to any other Adobe products that you have too.

    You may get a dialog box indicating you need to contact Microsoft to activate it if you've used up all your activations (2 for the professional version or 3 for the home/student version). Don't worry - you won't be hassled, just explain that you just bought a new computer and you are transfering the license.

  • My Webcam is not recording correctly.  When recording directly to youtube, the audio sounds like a robot.  It was not doing that when I first got my new MacBook Air last month.  What do I do to fix it?

    My built-in Webcam is not recording correctly.  When recording directly to youtube (upload), the audio sounds like a robot.  It was not doing that when I first got my new MacBook Air last month.  What do I do to fix it?
    I have tested it over several days with different internet connections...and have done it with another notebook computer on the same connection and it the video uploaded and recorded fine.  I can also use the video webcam with Google Hangouts and it records and works fine.  So I know the problem is not internet connection...and apparantly not even the webcam or mic. 

    Try using Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.

  • Got the new MAcBook Air with Lion, and would like to sell the previous model. How do I delete everything?

    Hi guys.
    I got the all new MacBook Air 11" with Lion yesterday, and would like to sell the previous model (it was with SnowLeopard).
    What do I have to do to delete everything, including my account? Do I need the SuperDrive or is it possibile without one?
    Thanks!

    Erase and Install OSX Snow Leopard http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3910
    And yes, you need the SuperDrive for this.

  • Just got a new macbook air I added 2 google email accounts to the mail program.  The mail downloaded thousands of emails and now on the top right hand corner I get bombarded by notification of these emails from 3-4 years ago and it is non stop.

    When I added 2 gmail accounts to my new macbook air.  The email program download thousands of emails and now I am getting notifications non stop on the top right hand corner from years ago it is non stop notification for the emails from like 2007 really old emails.  I am not sure why it is notifying me of old emails I know it is new just downloaded in the program but it should only notify me of recent emails shouldn't it?

    If your email client (Mail) it set to never delete emails from the server,  they stay there waiting. The server doesn't track what you've already downloaded, so a new setup of Mail just grabs whatever it finds on the server. You can change this in Settings, but for now, you have all your old emails to sort.

  • I just got a new MacBook Air -- Moving data over from the Time Capsule over WiFi??

    I just bought a new MacBook Air because my MacBook Pro 2008 died completely. I own a Time Capsule and it backed up regularly. I'd like to just move over all my data to my new 256GB MacBook Air, but it doesn't seem to be recognizing the Time Capsule over WiFi? I had the Time Capsule set to backup over Ethernet. Does this mean I can only access my files vs. Ethernet? Does that mean I need a USB to Ethernet adapter?

    Backing up other Ethernet doesn't prevent access via Wi-Fi.
    If the Time Capsule creating a wireless network?  If not, you'll need to configure it to do so in order to allow the MBA to connect to it.  If it does, can you connect the MBA to the Time Capsule's network?
    Depending on the amount of data you want to transfer, using a USB-to-Ethernet adapter would help things run faster.

  • Just got a new Macbook Air. How can I get quicktime to play wmv and other video formats?

    I just purchased a new Macbook Air. I have loaded quicktime, but it doesn't play all formats such as wmv and others. What is the best way to accomplish this?

    Download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac and operating system, of:
    RealPlayer SP for Mac from:
    http://www.real.com/realplayer/mac
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from  http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm  (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from  http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page  http://perian.org/#support   in case you need to delete older codecs.  In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them), particularly any DivX extension to Safari. However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from  http://www.divx.com/en/software/mac
    The latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer can be obtained from here:
    http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl ash
    You can check here what version of Flash player you actually have installed:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
    You can check here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/  to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS.
    You should first uninstall any previous version of Flash Player, using the uninstaller from here (make sure you use the correct one!):
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/909/cpsid_90906.html
    and also that you follow the instructions closely, such as closing ALL applications first before installing. You must also carry out a permission repair after installing anything from Adobe.

  • What is X11 and what does it do is it worth downloading i've just got a new Macbook air

    What is x11and what does it do i've just bought a Macbook Air note book and was wondering if this x11 is worth downloading

    In short, think of it as a graphical interface (e.g. window, menus, etc.) that can work across multiple systems. Applications written to use an X11 interface can run on any OS (Mac, Linux, Unix, Windows) with a suitable X11 server (such as XQuartz, mentioned above).
    The pros are that such an app can run anywhere. The cons being that it's kind of a lowest-common-denominator effect so it doesn't look like most native applications.
    One cool effect, though, is the remote nature of X11 - it's possible to run an application on a remote machine (over the LAN, or even over the internet) and have it display its output on your local X11 system, so your mouse clicks, keystrokes, etc. are transmitted over the wire, processed by the server, and the results displayed on your screen.
    As to whether it's worth it - there's no harm in downloading and installing it - it won't do anything unless any app you're running calls for X11, and any application that needs it will tell you so.

  • Just got a new Macbook Air.  Music library from ios devices/itunes isn't showing up on itunes on the mac.  How can I get it to work?

    How can I get my previously purchase music to show up in itunes on my macbook air?  Not sure I want to import and use up hard drive, but would like to have access to my songs/playlists on my computer.  It says homesharing is turned on for all my devices using the same apple id.

    iTunes prefs > Store - Show iTunes in the Cloud.
    You must be signed into the iTunes store.

  • Iv got a new macbook air. and cannot get it to work on my iMac? can anyone help??

    Iv just bought a macbook air external dvd drive. and i cant get it to work on my imac? Can anyone help???

    I don't believe the "Apple MacBook Air SuperDrive" is advertised to work with anything except a MacBook Air or a Mac Mini.
    According to a MacWorld article, the reason that it won't work on other models is not a hardware issue, but a Mac OS X one.  The MacWorld column described modifying a kernel extension file (dicey; a good way to make your Mac non-bootable if you mess it up); readers suggested a method that involved modifying only property list files.'
    I'm not sure I believe that it is just a software issue, or a "what is Apple willing to test and support?" one.  At the very end of the page, someone reported seeing "Extra Operating Current (mA): 600" in a USB device tree report.
    I think this drive can draw more than the standard amount of power for a USB port.  The USB ports on the MacBook Air  (and now on the versions of the Mini that lack internal optical drives) have probably been designed with that in mind.  The USB ports on the other Macs may only be supplying standard amounts of power, which might (educated guess) be insufficient for some operations (like burning DVDs).

  • HT1766 I got a new MacBook Air. I need to sync my iPhone with the iTunes on my new computer so I can back up my iPhone. How do I do this without losing my pictures/contacts, etc. on my iPhone?

    I have not updated my phone yet because I know it needs to be backed up first. However, I cannot do this in fear of losing everything on it if I sync to my new itunes. I am not really concerned with losing music, just do not want to lose pictures, notes, etc.

    First you need to copy the entire iTunes folder from the
    old computer to the new one.  You should also make sure
    that anything on the old computer that goes on the iPhone
    is present on the new computer. 
    If it is a Mac, this process is usually pretty easy by using
    Migration Assistant which will transfer all that stuff over to
    the new Mac.
    If you are using a PC, I will defer that to someone else for
    all but the iTunes stuff.  You will do the same thing on the
    PC, that is copy the entire iTunes folder to the new computer.
    Migration assistant is available to move things from a PC,
    but not sure how well that works.
    When openning iTunes for the first time, you will need to hold
    down the Option key on the Maccbook Air and you will
    be presented with a dialog box and you will select open existing
    library and navigate to it.  Failure to do this, will create a default
    library with nothing in it and you will have to move stuff again.
    So if all the data is the same, you should be able to sync
    just fine.
