When you select , you will see "About this Mac". After you click it, a window will appear, so look at "Version" under OS X text.

How can I use migration assistant to load my new Macbook Air?

How do I use migration assistant to load my new Macbook Air? Can this be done only wirelessly?

No, you can transfer from a Mac wirelessly, wired ethernet, Thunderbolt or Firewire. Your older Mac must have the same connection, but you can use adaptors if necessary. For example, you can use an Ethernet cable with an Ethernet-Thunderbolt adaptor if your older Mac has an ethernet port.
Wireless tends to be pretty slow (can take many hours) so it's recommended to choose a wired connection whenever you can.

Thanks for any tips.

Plug it in and launch the app you will use to run it.
paolo@spring wrote: ...Are there specific compatible webcams?...
Yes. In general, any current USB model (will meet the "UVC" standard) can work on any Mac running Mac OS X 10.4.8 or newer.
More specifically:
(1) You have a choice of many Mac-compatible USB cam. Some examples of current compatible cams are described at http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com/.
(2) If you want a wireless cam, consider http://ecamm.com/mac/webcam/bt1/
(3) OS X already has everything it needs for Mac-compatible cams. I recommend that you not add any OS X software that comes with your chosen camera to your OS X Mac, at least until you have tested your new cam without adding anything.
paolo@spring wrote:... Can both cams be use at same time?...
Multiple cameras can be connected at one time, but asking your Mac to actually use (capture and process) more than one video stream at a time might cause processor and data bus capacity problems. The normal method is to connect your cameras and switch between them as needed, actually using only one at a time.

The software you use to operate the cameras controls that. For more info, start with the answer in this topic link.

How do I use the restart keyboard combination on my MacBook Air without eject button?

On my MacBook Air, I noticed that there are two restart combinations: 'Cmd+Ctrl+Power Button' force restarts my mac and 'Cmd+Ctrl+Eject' restarts my mac normally (not force restart). OS X: Keyboard shortcuts
I noticed that there is no eject button on my macbook air and was wondering if anyone knows how to restart a macbook air without eject button.
I have tried using 'Cmd=Ctrl+Power Button' but as I said, it force restarts my mac not restarts it normally.
Also, 'Fn+Cmd+Ctrl+Power Button' also force restarts my mac.
Please could someone tell me how to retort my mac normally with the keyboard shor

How can I use two apple id's on one macbook air?

I have two accounts on my macbook air and two apple id's mine and my husbands. He has his set up on his account and I have mine set up on my account. Only problem is is that it seems we can only have one id associated with the computer at one time and to change it we have to wait 90 days.
How can I get around this?

One or both of you needs to buy your music on Amazon. Then the re-downloading process will be from the Amazon Cloud, which, for obvious reasons, does not have any restrictions about Apple ID.

How do i use ichat for the 4gs, how do i use ichat for the 4gs

i would like to know how to start using ichat on my new 4gs ?

Hi,
There is no iChat on the iOS 5 devices
However iChat on a Mac can send SMS messages to a Phone - Providing the computer thinks it is in the United States and the Phone is serviced by a USA Carrier that takes part in the AIM Forwarding service.

HI,
You can use iChat to Video to PCs that are using the AIM for PC app or have the Trillian App with the Pro Add-on (which costs).
As you list OS 10.7.4 you may find you can find a copy of the Messages Beta (technically it was withdrawn before the release date for Mountain Lion that has the Full version)

How do I use a philips PicoPix projector with my MacBook Pro

depends what ports your projector supports. You do not give the exact model.
The standard way is to use MiniDisplay (AKA Thunderbolt) port on your MacBookPro and use an adapter to

All depends what the projector has at the back.

It would have saved to your camera roll. Connect the phone to your Air via a USB cable and then run Image Capture which is located either in your Utilities folder or Other folder, depending on what version of Mac OS X your are running. You will then see all the photos and videos stored on your iPhone and can then download them.

How do I download my Microsoft office on to my MacBook Air using airdrop from my iMac? Please help

How do I download my Microsoft office on to my MacBook Air using airdrop from my iMac? Please help

Out of curiosity, does Microsoft's licensing allow for such an install and/or more than one install? I just did a cursory check on their licensing and found that most are only licensed for one computer unless you buy a special key card.
I had a different app once that was only allowed on one computer; it would not install on the other Mac. You may therefore encounter problems - since you must have an install CD, why not use that if you have the key card allowing you to install it on more than one?

How can I control my my mac mini with my macbook air (no wifi)?

How can I control my my mac mini with my macbook air (no wifi)? Also...what is the best method (less lag) for screen sharing?
I own a mac mini Quad Server 2.0 i7 and I use it for audio production. It's great but I need to travel with it. I was hoping some form of screen sharing could be useful using the macbook air to control the mac mini. Therefore, I'd be using the stronger processor of the mac mini but would still be using the keyboard and trackpad from the air.
My two problems:
1. I can't depend on wifi to make this happen. Wifi is not always available when travleing. What would be the best way to configure a LAN connection?
2. The less lag the better for screen sharing. Which apps are fastest?
Thanks in advance.

Both of your devices have WiFi built in. Here is Apple Support's solution:
