How to remove softwares in MacBook Air?

How do we remove some softwares to gain space in the start-up disc?

What exactly do you mean by remove?  You can delete material or you can move material to another storage device like an external hard drive.  To do that latter, you need to purchase an external hard drive, such as those sold by the Mac specialists at OWC, http://www.macsales.com and then move the songs, videos, photos, etc., to the external hard drive so they are not using space on your internal storage.

  • How to remove accounts from Macbook air, how to remove accounts from Macbook air

    I got my new MBA a week ago, but several things went wrong with migrating my stuff from my old macbook pro. So I would like to start over again and make a clean install. I am thinking removing my user accounts and restarting Migration Assistant. Is there anything I need to think of before I do that?
    Thanks for your help.

    Here's a link to Pondini's excellent site for some migration assistant information.

  • My MacBook air shows 56 Gig's of "Other" on my hard drive...what is it and how to remove?, My MacBook air shows 56 Gig's of "Other" on my hard drive...what is it and how to remove?

    I have 128 capacity and can no longer download largeer files (i.e. movies) because disk is almost full.  Storage space shows 56 gigs of "other" taking up space.  I don't understand the disk utility.  How can I figure out what this "other" stuff is and how to delete?

    Other Stuff is everything that's not movies, music etc. It includes your personal data as well as the operating system and the files it needs. There are a lot of disk cataloging programs including DaisyDisk, WhatSize, and Omni Disk Sweeper. The latter is free the other two are shareware. Get one, run it, and see what's taking up space and what you are willing to delete or move to another drive.

    How do I use my MacBook Air to access AWS (Amazon web Service)?  The information provided to me by Apple Care seems to be about allowing outside access to my MacBook.

    Sorry, but does this relate to Apple Remote Desktop, Apple's software for managing networked Macs, in some way? If so, how are you using ARD in relation to Amazon's services?

  • WINDOWS SUPPORT SOFTWARE FOR MACBOOK AIR 2014

    Does anyone know if there is a windows support software for MacBook Air 13 inches 2014 version?
    I do need it desperately

    Again, what do you mean by a Windows Support Software?
    Bootcamp will allow you to install Windows on a Mac. Beyond that what else do you need?
    The instructions don't mention anything about Support Software.
    How to install Windows using Boot Camp - Apple Support
    For All intents and purposes Bootcamp is the software that supports Windows installations.

  • How to load matlab on macbook air

    how to load matlab on macbook air?

    There are two ways to use Windows on your Mac. The first is to partition the internal drive so that you can use one part for MacOS and the other for Windows, selecting which you want to use when you start up. That's called Boot Camp, and information about how to set it up and use it can be found in the document at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1461 The disadvantage of this is that you can only run Mac or Windows at any given time, not both.
    The other method is to use what is known as a 'virtual machine', to run Windows as if it were just another application within MacOS, thus allowing you to run both at the same time, and even share documents between them. To do this you'll need appropriate software such as VMware Fusion (http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/overview.html) or Parallels Desktop (http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/) Neither of these need the drive to be partitioned, but unlike Boot camp which is free, VMware or Parallels are both commercial software.
    Whichever solution you use, you'll also need a Windows installer and valid product license.

    Try Force Quit.
    Press   command + option + esc  keyboard keys together at the same time.
    Wait.
    When Force Quit window appears, select Mail if not already.

  • How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

    How do I transfer my MacBook Air to my wife so she can sync her iTunes account and other settings with her iPad Mini?

    You can change the account shortname to whatever you wish to use.
    As you can see from my example above. Once you click on the Create User button a new account will be created.
    She will need to get her own Apple ID setup so when she starts with iTunes she can open her own iTunes account unless you both want to share the use of the same Apple ID. This can create a bit of confusion if you have your own iPads or iPhones or iPods. As you have discovered it's pretty much one iDevice with one Apple ID.
    As for the iTunes library that becomes a more complicated issue.

    Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Mavericks. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click here, and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
    Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as Microsoft Office 2004.

    How do I connect my MacBook Air bought sep13 to a Benq GL2450? monitor?

    External screens are designed to work as extended displays for your computer's display. It means that menu bars and desktop icons won't appear, and you will only see windows if you drag them to the right part of the computer's display.
    To change this, you have to activate video mirroring > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5019
