How do i transfer nano playlist to new macbook air

old nano, new macbook and playlist/music wont sync

If both versions of iPhoto will be the same, this is the easiest way as sig has said. There is also an export feature. I use the export feature to save separate copies of my library as regular files (not within the iPhoto library).
You could also export, then save to a folder (using events as sub-folders). Then drop those into your new iPhoto library and it would put them back in their proper place. However, you could lose some META data that way, but in my experience I've not lost anything significant, really only the key photo has to be set again. I had a very out of control iPhoto library once, and this saved me a bunch of space.
Also, there is an app JPEGmini which I used to save a bunch of GBs of data. I exported, ran them through this app, which can reduce file size by as much as 40-50% while still retaining image quality. I had to try it to believe it, but it was amazing. Then I put them back in iPhoto and now my library is fast.
But simply moving the library will work. Just make sure both versions of iPhoto are the same, then you don't have to upgrade the library where things can happen.

How to sync sent mail from iPhone to MacBook Air mail?

I have sent mail from my iPhone and I want this sent mail to show on my laptop (MacBook Air). Is there a setting that will allow for this? I use Apple's Mail on my laptop.

Hi,
To do this, you must be using an IMAP email account type.
If you are using a POP mail account it is not possible.

Someone, please tell me how to download my iBooks to my new MacBook Air

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Any purchased books should be available for download in iBooks, once you log into your account.

How do I download from disk Adobe Acrobat X Pro onto my Air Macbook?

It may be worth pointing out, for the benefit of anyone else reading this, that if you go from Windows to Mac, or Mac to Windows, you should budget for buying ALL your software again - and check that the things you need are available on the other type. A few software companies let you convert for free, but it's the exception, not the rule.

How do i use airplay on my new macbook air ?

Just purchase a MacAir 11" with the promise I could use Airplay. Can't find the icon or on the top bar. What am I doing wrong?

Check the option to display on menubar in System Preferences > Displays.

My new MacBook Air locked up during my first attempt to migrate information from my old PC

I began the set up process for my new MacBook Air (2014). I got as far as the Migration Assistant. At first, my old PC (6 year old HP with Windows Vista) seemed to be communicating with my MacBook and transferring data. There was a lot of time remaining on the countdown to completion of the transfer, so I went to bed while the computers kept migrating data. I woke up, and the migration connection was lost. My MacBook screen is saying it is "transferring data to the Mac"- but the screen is the same, and the connection has obviously been lost. It seems to be locked up. I cannot get out of the screen to do anything! I would rather start the set up process all over without migrating any data at this point, and just start using my new MacBook. Help! How do I turn off the whole MacBook and start again?

Never mind! I realized that I needed to hold the power button down for longer than I thought to get the laptop to turn off. I turned it off, then back on, and was able to begin the process all over and am now up and running! Hoorah!

TS3276 How do I reconfigure Mail to the new settings required by Verizon? If I don't comply by Sept. 2013, my mail service will be interrupted. The following is the message that I received from Verizon:

How do I reconfigure Mail to the new settings required by Verizon. If I don't comply by Sept. 2013, my mail service will be interrupted.
The following is the message that I received from Verizon:
Please update your POP email application’s inbound and outbound server settings as soon as possible to match the new settings below:
Server                    Current Setting                  New Setting                  SSL Enabled               Port
POP3 Server       incoming.verizon.net           pop.verizon.net                       YES                   995
SMTP Server        outgoing.verizon.net         smtp.verizon.net                      YES                   465
TIPS: Depending on your email application, you may need to turn off Secure Password Authentication and, if applicable, make sure your Authentication method is set to “Password” or “Normal password.” In addition, you may need to restart your device for these new settings to take effect and for your email to continue working properly.

On 10.7 (most any other versions should be similar) Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select account > Account Information, and confirm that the Account Type at the top is POP.
If it's currently working and is shown as an IMAP account, then please stop now, and reply back here with that detail.
If the account is shown as a POP account, then update the incoming (receive-path) mail server to match Verizon's message if your current settings show a different mail server, then select the Advanced tab to set the port and to enable SSL, and also ensure that the Authentication setting has "Password" selected...
Now for the outbound (SMTP) path... Back over to the Mail > Preferences > Accounts > select account > Account Information tab, and switch the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) selector to "Edit SMTP Server List" item to get to the "outbound" mail settings and select the Verizon SMTP server account from the list shown at the top and select the Account Information tab and ensure that the server name matches what Verizon has now specified, and then select the Advanced tab, select Use Default Ports and check the Use Secure Sockets Layer box.

I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive. I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto. How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive?

I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive. I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto. How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive in Iphoto?

Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

Once your in iTunes click the dropdown menu below the play button if one option is home sharing click home sharing and sign in with your apple id if you don't have home sharing follow these steps:
1) Go to iTunes
2) Click file (which is on the menu bar)
3) Hover your mouse over the place where it says home sharing
4) If you hover your mouse over home sharing you should see it says turn on home sharing click it
5) Now sign in with your apple id
Now have enabled home sharing on your mac.
