How to power US Macbook Air in UK

To charge my US Macbook Air when traveling in the UK, do I need a voltage converter or can I use an inexpensive adapter plug to fit UK outlets?

Just get one of these:

I use one all the time (bought MBA while on business in the US) and it works a treat.

Did you purchase your MacBook Air new? Do you still have its box? Locate its serial number and telephone Apple at the number shown at the bottom of this page (1-800-MY-APPLE if you're in the U.S.). They can help you.

How do I get macbook air to boot up off of the network

how do i get macbook air to boot up off of the network

Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.

How do I get MacBook Air to see Windows Home Server and show it in Finder?

New to Mac (having used Windows for years) so this may be a dumb question. Have a MacBook Air (new) and have a home network with a Windows Home Server on the network. I can't figure out how to get the MacBook Air to see the Windows Home Server. It doesn't show up in Finder and I think my lack of understanding of Mac OS it inhibiting me from figuring out how to get the MacBook Air to see the server and show it so I can navigate to the files on it, etc. Any suggestions on how to do this or where I can go to read about it to figure it out?
Thanks!!!

If the Windows Home Server functions like a file server, try the following: From the Finder, Click the Go menu at the top of the screen, and choose Connect To Server. You will be presented with a dialog box to enter the server IP address.
You may also want to open the Preferences for the Finder from the File menu, and make sure connected servers are supposed to show up on the desktop and in Finder windows.
Disclaimer: I have not used a PC for 15 yrs, so this is general information. This is the process I use to connect to other Mac servers and to several online WebDav servers.

How to identify fake macbook air

hi guys,
i have been using macbook pro for quite sometime an very happy with it. now i am looking for second unit. i cam across a second hand unit of 2013 macbook air. how do i make sure this unit is original? are there any fake product in the market? how do i recognise them?
regards

You could check the product serial number against the online identification sites, that of course
could be faked. Also, if the computer has an OS X and is able to tell you in System Profiler or
other listing of internal hardware, a regular PC hardware would appear a bit different than Mac.
With the questionable product in your possession or close proximity for inspection, you may
find more information. If you can start it & read the information inside, much more is learned.
•How to identify your MacBook Air - Apple Support
Specifications could be cross-checked with online accessible databases, http://everymac.com
shows builds of Apple product listed and if you use an identify by serial number database, to
see what the alleged Apple or PC-fake isn't or is, that should be easy... Easier if you have it.
•Apple MacBook Air Specs (All MB/Air Technical specs) - everymac.com:
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook-air/index-macbook-air.html
•Identify your Mac - Lookup unit by Serial Number or Model Number:
https://www.powerbookmedic.com/identify-mac-serial.php
http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/
If you have downloaded the MacTracker database, it can show you more information on each
model across nearly the entire brand. http://mactracker.ca is a source for this application D/L.
How to find your Mac's model and age? - ASC user tip
Some of these sites also offer visual identification of models, where to look for in-device
serial numbers, some may be hidden or inside; others visible if unit is On, in software.
Hopefully this helps somewhat. Also an indicator may be price. If a new Apple computer or
an iDevice relies on the original owner's Apple ID and their information, it may not be worth
owning unless they transfer it. If the unit has a tie-in to an AppleID and they haven't set it
up for a new user, you may have to take the unit to an Apple Authorized service provider to
have them help set up a new owner (appleID) if you don't know how. -- And take along the
original owner whose ID set up the Mac in the first place, so they can transfer ownership.
A fake product should not need an AppleID or it may have an illegal clone on board. A fake
would probably either be a hack- in tosh or a windows pc that looks like MacBook Air. Or a
copy made by some contractor to look like a Mac. You could look into the Apple site and
check to see how to inquire deeper, in Apple Legal site. Or how to report a fake.
Good luck & happy computing!

How to reset my macbook air 2012?

hi,, my name is jovito ,,i have this macbook air 2012,, and i planning to buy the new version,, and my friend want to buy my 2012 air.. but before he buy this air,, he wants me to reset it first.. and i dont kmow how to.. please help.. thank you...

Before you sell or give away your computer, in addition to the steps mentioned in this support article, take these steps:
Run the Apple Hardware Test or Apple Diagnostics. The buyer will do this (or he should), and you don't want to be surprised by the results.
Reset the PRAM and the SMC, which might contain personal information.
If you set a firmware password, remove it by running Firmware Password Utility in Recovery mode.
If you activated FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, turn it off.
If you use Boot Camp, the partition must be deleted
If you created any other data partitions on the internal drive, remove them in Disk Utility.
Erase the data partition(s) with the option to zero out data. An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
You can't legally or practically transfer any software downloaded from the Mac App Store to the new owner of the machine, even if it was free. That includes OS X, so if you upgraded to OS X 10.7 or later, you must reinstall the original OS, either from the installation media, if applicable, or by booting into Internet Recovery (option-command-R at the startup chime.) If you installed from discs or a read-only USB key, deliver those to the new owner.
The new owner will have to repurchase the software, if need be, under his or her Apple ID. If you ever updated the bundled iLife applications (Garage Band, iMovie, and iPhoto) through the App Store, you can't transfer them either.
Remove the machine from your list of registered products. If it's still covered by an AppleCare Protection Plan, transfer the coverage to the new owner by following the instructions in the AppleCare Terms and Conditions (under the heading "Transfer of Plan.")
