  • Looking to buy a microphone headset to use with my macbook air...any suggestions?

    I am looking to purchase a microphone/headset to use for webex presentations while using my MacBook Air.
    Does anyone have any recommendations/suggestions?

    For your use I would strongly recommend headsets with in-ear headphones from Etymotic.
    The Mic on the Etymotic headsets I find is great - the voice is picked up perfectly and people on the other end can always hear me - the one downside I find is that it has to be relatively close to your mouth.
    Etymotic deliver excellent sound quality however I found the other main selling point for these was that they are very comfortable to wear. I can wear them for hours on end and forget I have them in - I don't get the urge to adjust them etc.
    You should note though - these headsets are not for music, the bass is almost non-existent and turning up the sound too high causes the sound to become distorted - however, for the uses you described, listening to talking, they are brilliant.

  • I am having problems attaching files with Maverick.  Any suggestions?

    I can't attach files to emails or access them at all from any app.  They are visible but greyed out.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    In older versions of Elements PSA files were associated with Photoshop Album which has now been replaced by the Organizer. Elements has no 3d functionality for supporting space planning files but these files can normally be exported or saved by the originator as a bitmap or pdf file. Those could then be opened in PSE. I suggest you explore the possibilities of file conversion with your original source.

  • HT1338 I'm unable to update any software on my macbook air and iMac

    I'm unable to update any software on my macbook air and iMac getting the following error "to update your software you need to sign in with the account you used to purchase it" any help is appreciated

    Please try each of the following steps you haven't already taken, until the issue is resolved. After each step, relaunch the App Store and try again.
    1. Follow the instructions in the Apple Support article linked below:
    Mac App Store: Cannot update App Store purchases or updates do not seem available
    2. If any App Store purchases were made under a different Apple ID, or if the bundled iLife applications were accepted under a different ID, sign in to the App Store with that ID to update.
    3. Alternatively, delete the probem applications and re-download them with the ID you're using now. If you haven't already purchased them with that ID, you'll have to do that first, because purchases can't be transferred from one account to another.
    4. Select the Purchased tab in the App Store window. If you see an item in the list marked "You have 3 apps to accept," click Accept.
    5. Triple-click the line below to select it:
    /Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/adoption.plist
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu. A Finder window may open with a file selected. If it does, delete the selected file. You may be prompted for your login password.
    Then repeat step 4.
    6. Select
    Store ▹ View My Account
    from the App Store menu bar, then select View hidden purchases. If you're trying to update any hidden purchases, unhide them.
    7. Launch iTunes and select
    Store ▹ Authorize This Computer
    from the menu bar.
    8. If you've moved any App Store apps out of the applications folder, or into a subfolder, put them back. Never move or copy those applications.
    9. Contact Account and Billing Support on this page:
    Apple - Mac App Store - Contact Support

  • MacBook Air to iMac Target Display Mode not working

    I would like to connect my MacBook Air (13") with my iMac (27") to use the latter as an external display with Target Display Mode.
    I followed instructions from a number of posts (http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14264), and connected the two with thunderbolt cable and hit Command-F2 -- the iMac goes black and MacBook stays the same. One post suggested dragging windows over to the iMac as an extended display, and I was able to drag Safari totally off-screen, presumably onto the other display, but the iMac still appeared black
    Other issue is that hitting Command-F2 again doesn't do anything. I could only get the iMac out of TDM when I unplugged the thunderbolt cord.
    I have a brand new Macbook Air and iMac along with new thunderbolt cable (all purchased at Apple Store in 2014). Would appreciate any help, thanks!

    Additional twist to this...
    Tried to troubleshoot and reset the System Management Controller (SMC) per http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    When I hit Command-F2, one window from my MacBook will display on the iMac (it was Safari a few times, Outlook once), but neither keyboard/mouse can DO anything in that screen. That window also disappears from the MacBook. And I can only return after unplugging thunderbolt (not command-F2).
    Help please

  • I have a MacBook Air, which I just upgraded to OSX Lion. I also have the latest version of iTunes. When I try to stream to the AirPort, the Airport resets, and the wireless connection on the macbook locks up. Any suggestions where to start?

    To free up hard drive space the best bet is to move data files that you don't need access to all the time. Likely candidates are music, video, and photos. Things like word processing and spreadsheet files can also be moved but they tend not to be very large and so don't free up much space. The problem with moving the above mentioned files is that iTunes and iPhoto need to know where the files are stored.
    Here's an article explaining how to move the iTunes folder. You can move the iPhoto library using the Finder but there is a slight complication. Start iPhoto, open the Preferences and click on the Advanced tab. The first option is "Copy items to the iPhoto Library". If this option is checked, copy the iPhoto library to your external folder (drag it from the Pictures folder to your external drive) and then delete it from your Picture folder. If this option is not checked, it is a bit more complicated and we'll need to talk a bit.

  • 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.
