hi, in apple MacBook Air 11.6" what is the shortcut key for print screen

To capture the entire screen to an image, use the key combination ⌘ shift 3.
To capture a selection rectangle, ⌘ shift 4.
To capture the frontmost window, ⌘ shift 4 and then press the space bar.
The screen grab will appear on your Desktop. Open it in Preview or your favourite image editing software, and print in the usual manner.

  • When using macbook air and excel, what is the shortcut to edit a cell

    when I want to edit a cell, i know that I can point to the cell and click; but is there anything like function f2 that would be shortcut ?

    You still have to point to the cell to edit.  A double tap on the trackpad will allow an "in cell" edit of the formula. (If you have tap to click enabled in preferences)

    how can i change shortcut key?

    I don't believe there is a keyboard shortcut available for that feature. But I believe if you click-select the topmost chapter, and Shift-click the bottommost chapter, it should select them all.
    Other shortcuts for books can be set up in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts in the Panel Menus product area. There are no default shortcuts in that area.

  • I bought a Macbook Air, how can I change the icloud credentials for ownership..?

    Thanks in advance...!!!!!!

    If you have admin privileges create a new User account so you start fresh or you can go to System Preferences > iCloud and sign out using his ID and sign in with your ID. I suggest moving to a new User.
    CREATE A NEW USER
    Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups. Give it Admin rights
    Switch to the New User by logging out under the Apple in the Menu Bar.
    Delete the previous account after you have moved your personal files over to the new User via the Shared folder.

  • New MacBook Air w/ lines, what is the panel #?

    So after long delay I bought a MBA for my primary computer... However, I have the grey lines and I returned it and received another one with even worse grey lines. This is absolutely insane! How can this be? When compared next to the MBP and MB this screen is terrible (excluding black levels). I mean using Google or Pages I can see the grey lines plain as day. Now that they are there I cannot work because my eyes always focus on them. I read somewhere about people getting the MBA without grey lines, is this true? If so, I also heard that they had luck with a certain model of panel number (e.g 9C8F). Can anyone lend some help here? How would I tell the panel number and if I return it, should I look for one with a certain serial number or is the panel number listed on the outside of the box?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    "should I look for one with a certain serial number or is the panel number listed on the outside of the box?"
    With very few exceptions, Apple builds computers with each module supplied by an assortment of vendors. The panel vendor cannot be ascertained by the computer serial number, and it is not listed on the exterior of the shipping box.

    I run Adobe CS5 on my 2011 MBA with no difficulties and the 2013 models are significantly faster with improved Intel integrated graphics so your experience would be better. If your budget alllowed it, a computer with a faster processor and integrated graphics would improve your experience with 3D graphics (compositing would be faster) and with graphics post processing. But the MBA can do it.
    I'd strongly recommend you upgrade it to 8GB and at least get the 256GB SSD. If you do any extensive video editing the drive will get full quickly so you'll also want a fast external drive to move data on and off the computer. Also a 13" is rather cramped to having a larger external display would be a plus.

  • I live in the US and want to buy a MacBook Air with norwegian keyboard in the Apple Store. Is that possible?

    I live in the US and want to buy a MacBook Air with norwegian keyboard in the Apple Store. Is that possible?

    In earlier years you can go th an Apple Store, buy a Macbook Pro and ask for a replacement to a other type of keyboard. I do this 2-3 times in the last years for german keyboards. If you done this on the same day you bought the macbook, the replacement happened without charge anything. It was a great service.
    Yesterday i go back to the same store like before and both - the sales representative and the guys an the GeniusBar told me - that this is not offered by Apple anymore. Because the US Apple Online Store do not offer other Keyboards the US-based keyboards and the German Apple Online Store do not deliver to other countries the final conglusion from the Apple Stuff was:
    Flight to germany, but it over their.
    I see here in the Support community a lot of questions about norwegian, german and other kind of keyboards they want to buy in the US. Their is obviously a need for this. And from the logistic standpoint, it should be easy for Apple to offer that in the Online Stores itself.
    For me the conglusaion is: I stay with my old Macbook Pro and hope i need no replacement within the next years. To order it in germany, ship it to a friend, pay taxes twice (in germany and vur customers) plus shipment, make it to expensive (bottonline: 600-800$ more than buy it in the US) make no sense to me.

    Drive Partition and Format
    1.Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your 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.
    3. 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.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

    how to transfer Ipad music NOT purchased from Apple to MacBook Air.  Answers found in the Community does not seem to deal with similar questions posted to the Community.

    You can only transfer purchases from iTunes on the iPad into iTunes on your computer. If you bought the music from another source, you need to use the source app to transfer the music, or you need a third party app to transfer the music.

  • Won't boot from Apple MacBook Air SuperDrive

    I am told to run DISK UTILITY as I get the "No Mountable File System" error for EVERY DMG I try to install. (Install works fine on my 2nd MacAir so the DMG is not damaged.) However DISK UTILITY does not fix this issue.
    I am trying to boot to Disk Warrior 4.2 on my Apple MacBook Air SuperDrive. Holding C down for 10 minutes on reboot does not work. Selecting DVD SuperDrive using the REBOOT | OPTION KEY option does not work.
    Any ideas?
    My thanks!
    ~P

    Sorry, but the current Disk Warrior CD will not boot the recent MacBook Air models. See:
    http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/support.html
    The only way to run DW on your system would be to boot the MBA from an external hard drive with your MBA's version of Mac OS X and DW installed on the drive. IF you don't have one available you can use, if there's an Apple Store in your area they may be able to help. Otherwise, you may have to reformat your MBA's hard drive.
    Regards.

  • My MacBook Air can't get past the gray screen with the apple logo. What's the fix?

    My MacBook Air can't get past the gray screen with the Apple logo, so I can't login. Does anyone know the fix for this?

    Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    The first step in dealing with a boot failure is to secure your data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since your last backup, you can skip this step.
    There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
    a. Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at the startup chime, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in the support article linked below, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
    How to back up and restore your files
    b. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire or Thunderbolt cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
    How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
    c. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
    Step 2
    Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to boot, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can boot now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
    Before reconnecting an external storage device, make sure that your internal boot volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
    Step 3
    Boot in safe mode.* The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Post for further instructions.
    When you boot in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, your boot volume is damaged and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to step 5.
    If you can boot and log in now, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) If the boot process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
    Step 4
    Sometimes a boot failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
    Step 5
    Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see above for instructions.) Select your startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
    This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it produces. Look for the line "Permissions repaired successfully" at the end of the output. Then reboot as usual.
    Step 6
    Boot into Recovery again. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
    Note: You need an always-on Ethernet or Wi-Fi connection to the Internet to use Recovery. It won’t work with USB or PPPoE modems, or with proxy servers, or with networks that require a certificate for authentication.
    Step 7
    Repeat step 6, but this time erase the boot volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer your data from a backup.
    Step 8
    If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested.
