Hi colin the card,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you purchased your device in a different country than the one you reside in and want to change the currency symbol typed from the keyboard. The article linked below will provide details about changing your MacBook Airs region and currency format.

  • When i attempt to log on to my college site i keep getting The connection has timed out. Is there a way of changing the time setting , to fix this?

    This message "The connection has timed out" only happens when i attempt to log on to my blackboard account for college. All other log in' work fine.

    Thanks.  So there's no means of knowing whether a text message has been delivered, not to mention time of delivery.  Perhaps I've gone for the wrong phone.  It might do a lot but seems to miss out on some basics.

  • I cannot continue to use my external hard disk which I used with windows. OS 10.8 can read it but declares the disk as "read only". Is there a way to change this?

    Hallo everyone,
    I just tried my external disk on my Macbook air and I cannot save data to it any longer. This external disk was used with windows. Now i want to use it with macbookAir as I have changed my computer. It seems that OSX.10.8.5 can read the data on this external drive but when I try to save new data to it (pdf documents from the web for example) it refuses to save the data ans the message I get is that my drive is "read only". Please is there a way to change this or do I have to format the re-format the external drive?
    Thanks for your help

    You will have to reformat the drive for use with a Mac.

  • When I print a weekly calendar from Lightning, the title reads "Week 10". Is there a way to change this to my name?

    I need a little more formatting flexibility from Lightning. When I print a weekly calendar, the title reads "Week 10" in large bold print. Is there a way to change this to my name? I searched through the entries in the Tools/Calendar/Advanced file, but didn't find what I was looking for.
    Thanks in advance!

    guigs2: I appreciate your kind response. But please let me clarify: it's not the calendar's title that I'm trying to change, but the notation of which week of the year the calendar has noted. When printing the weekly task view, the calendar's title is at the top. A subheading is then available to edit as well. But what I'd like to edit is the third heading, which this week reads "Week 10". It's the "Week 10" that I'd like to edit. Is there an entry in a configuration file that I could edit, or ???
    Thank you for your time and interest!

    I am unfamiliar with the recovery manager.  Here are two guesses.
    -- Is system profiler around?  It will tell you your serial number.
    Report system info
    Blue apple > about this Mac
    click on more info
    click on hardware
    You serial number will appear after Boot ROM.  Do not copy hear.
    --- The newer machines include a recovery partition.  Perhaps looking around recovery manager would reveal something.

  • HT204135 My printer always defaults to "Scale = 150%" and prints oversized. I always have to set the scale back to "100%". Is there any way to change this default setting?

    Hi
    My osX Lion loaded iMac always prints with a default "scale" of "150%" and consequently won't print anything on a single page. I always have to go into "Printer Settings" and change it to "100%" to print properly. Is there any way to set this up to default at "100%"?
    Thanks!

    Hi,  just a note that might help.  I notice in baltwo's screen shot of the print dialog, that the Preset titled "Plain paper, best" is selected.
    anderdan33316, if you have selected a preset, and that preset was created with the "Scale" set to "150%".  I suspect your issue is related to this.
    for a possible solution,
    1. in Safari, open the Print dialog (by cmd-p, or choosing "Print..." from the File menu, either way works).
      2. in the dialog, manually set the Scale to 100%
      3. in the "Presets:" pull-down menu, select "Save Current Settings as Preset..."
      4. enter a label that is meaningful to you, such as "Standard", "Basic", "Default" - it can be modified later
      5. print that page from that dialog, and the customized Preset will be one of your choices until you decide to delete it.
    hope this helps,

  • Is there a way to access my iTunes library that's stored on my Mac Mini Server at home over the internet while I'm away on business?

    Hello.
    I've done a bit of searching on Google and have come up empty so far and am looking for your help.
    Here's my situation:
    I have my iTunes media files stored on my NAS on my home network along with my Mac Mini Server with the iTunes library files stored in my Dropbox folder. While I'm at home I can access all of my files without any problems from either my Mac Mini Server or my Macbook Air; however, I recently moved to San Diego for work and would still like to access the media that's on my NAS at home remotely from my Macbook Air so I can sync my iPhone and watch movies.
    Is this even possible? If so, how would I go about setting this up?
    Thanks!

    The sessionstore.js file only exists while Firefox is closed. During shutdown, Firefox writes out that file based (I think) on recovery.js as of that point. When Firefox starts back up again, it reads sessionstore.js and deletes it. So if Firefox is running, it's normal not to see sessionstore.js. Anyway, sessionstore.js is going to be empty now.
    Shadow Explorer might already have done this for you, but just in case...
    You could try the previous versions feature. This is harder to get to on Windows 8 and 8.1, but I have read about a roundabout way. I can't test this myself, but here's what you do:
    Let's say you have a Windows Explorer window open to your current Firefox profile folder. This is something like (with your username and semi-random profile folder name):
    C:\Users\''username''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\blahblah
    Click in the address bar and change the C: to
    \\localhost\c$
    to yield (with your username and semi-random profile folder name)
    \\localhost\c$\Users\''username''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\blahblah
    Press Enter to reload the folder contents that way.
    Now when you right-click recovery.js, recovery.bak, backup.js or sessionstore.js and choose Properties, there should be a Previous Versions tab. Usually the most recent previous version dates back to the last time Windows created a restore point (e.g., system update or possibly scheduled on a more frequent basis).

  • The way you changed adding bookmarks is not helpful, is there a way to change it back so that all bookmarks are just added to the main list?

    Nothing more to be said. Hitting the "star" to add a bookmark just adds it to a separate list, instead of the main bookmark list, and there is no obvious way I can find to turn that off or to move those "Recently Bookmarked" items to the main list. Why did you have to mess around with something that just worked?

    If you click the star on the Navigation Toolbar to bookmark the current tab then the new bookmark is created in the Unsorted folder.
    The blue highlighted star gets an "Edit this bookmark" tooltip and if you click the star another time then you get the "Edit This Bookmark" dialog and can move the bookmark to another folder.
    The list icon next to it (tooltip: Show your bookmarks) is the drop marker of the star button and behaves as the Bookmarks Menu button (that also looked like a star) known from older Firefox versions.
    * "Most Visited" and "Recently Bookmarked" and "Recent Tags" are examples of so called [[Smart Bookmarks folders|Smart Bookmarks folders]] and are not real existing folders.
    * Smart folders show a list created by a query of the places.sqlite database that stores bookmarks and history in Firefox.
    * Smart folder lists show a maximum of 10 entries by default.
    * Bookmarks and history items that show up in a smart folder list are stored elsewhere in another folder and any changes made are applied to the real bookmark or history item.

  • I have created an android app from adobe flash cs6 .The app opens on mobile device except on nexus 7 which has lollipop version? Is there any way to open my app on that device?

    please give me the solutions.

    Dear Bob,
      I downloader a VLS Streamer from the Apple app store.  It requires some kind of helper software to run, which, as far as I can tell from the video at the developer's site, allows one to download content from one's mobile device to their computer.  Since I don't have a compatible computer for my iPad to link to, the instructions don't help my situation.  I emailed them with my query and will probably hear from them sometime this week.
       I've lived with this problem for the 3 months I've had my iPad, and I'll keep after it until I have a solution.  But right now, I've run out of steam.  If this lead helps me to resolve my issue, I'll come back and HELPFUL or RESOLVED every response you've given.  I'm very grateful for your help.  Sorry I'm so utterly clueless.
       Thanks once again.  Please don't cringe if I get back to you another day.

  • Is there a way to format text case in the response table fields? Also, is there a way to change the

    I am trying to do two things in a response table for a form. First, i would like to know if I am able to use a function to auto convert the populated text to either proper or upper case as needed. Second, is there a way to rearrange the column order in the response table?

    Hi;
    You can use the "UPPER" formula from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat-com/formscentral/help/formula-syntax-built-in-functions.htm l
    I think you'd insert/add a new column adjacent the one you want to convert, let's say you want to convert the responses in column "J" so you insert a colulmn to the right "K", in cell "K1" you'd put "=UPPER(J1)" and when you hit "Enter" column K would be populated with the data from the cells in column J in all caps. You could then hide column J to keep the form cleaner and all new responses would be reflected in all caps in the new column K.

  • When I save XY plots as a jpeg file, I lose my resolution. The plot automatically fixes the resolution and I lose some data. Is there a way to change these settings so that I get a carbon-copy of my graphs ? Thanks !

    Thanks for your help !
    Kudos always welcome for helpful posts

    jpeg is a lossy image compression. Try seeting the "quality" input to 100 (default is 80).
    I would recommend to use PNG instead, it's a better format for this purpose. (jpeg is for photographs).
