I can't connect the sound from my macbook air to the base station

In system preferences the option for the base station comes up, but it will not let me click on it.

    Log into the app store using the Apple ID you used to set your computer up. Look under purchases. If it is not there you may need to accept it or to unhide it

  • I can't transfer downloaded content from my macbook air to my external hdd, when i try to drag it into the hrd drive it wont go in how do i fix this ?

    i can't transfer downloaded content from my macbook air to my external hdd, when i try to drag it into the hrd drive it wont go in how do i fix this ?

    What format is the external HDD in? If it's NTFS (= proprietary Windows), then OS X can read it but not write.
    Eventually copy all content from the drive to a safe place, the re-format. FAT32 is the format which both Windows and OS X can read and write.

  • Can I use my iPad mini to extend the display from my Macbook Air?

    Is there a way to utilize my ipad mini wifi, to extend the display from my Macbook Air?

    There is no need to charge it before you first use it.  You cannot run the battery too low as the system will shut the device off before that happens to protect the battery.
    Generally speaking, your Lithium battery will have the longest useable life if you avoid deep cycles.  Since you can plug and unplug it as you wish, the best thing to do is just charge it up (however much) whenever it is convenient to do so (whether it is 10% discharged, or 20% or 50% - basically don't pay any attention to the battery level, just plug it in when it is convenient to do so to keep the battery topped up).  And try to avoid frequent deep cycles where you run it all the way or very near to the point it auto-shuts off.

  • No sound from my Macbook Air. When I go to system preferences and click on Sound Output there are no devices to select from and the Mute box is checked.

    There is no sound from my Macbook Air even when I turn it on.  When I go to System Preferences and click on Output there are no options.  The Mute box is also checked, but I cannot uncheck it.  Also when I try to play any video from the web, it stops playing after a second or so.  I have turned off my computer and turned it on again which did not help.

  • I can't connect my iphone5 to my Macbook Air via Bluetooth?

    Can someone please tell me why I can't connect my iphone5 to my Macbook Air via Bluetooth?
    Is this just the most ridiculous oversight or is there some underlying reason why this doesn't connect and function properly? How amazing would it be if I could just click on a contact number and dial from my phone like I could in 2008 via my Lenovo and my Blackberry. This blows my mind that two devices that scream compatibility are far from it. From my bluetooth options it see my device, then sends a code, I confirm and then it briefly connects only to disconnect almost immediately. #fail #appleoversight #failfailfail
    Fix it or I'm going back to PC ****

  • How can I get HDMI out from my macbook air(2011)?

    How can I get HDMI out from my macbook air(2011)?

    It's rather simple. Buy a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. And then a HDMI cable long enough to link your computer the distance between both devices.

  • My apple tv was previously and now all of the sudden stopped playing sound from my macbook air via airplay

    I was using airplay to stream from my macbook air on my tv via apple tv and when i paused the sound stopped and now will not resume.  I have reset both and both are fully updated. Please help

    Dowload the program BEAMER, its far superior to AIRPLAY, theres a free 30 day trial. See if it works on that. Beamer is the best app for wifi of VIDS to your AppleTV
    http://beamer-app.com/
    also, try a diff VID format, AIRPLAY doesn’t support all VID formats (beamer does however).
    I cant live without beamer, you can multitask on your Mac  WHILE beaming high-def to your Apple TV, ….Airplay wont do that reliably.
    Process of elimination diagnosis!

  • How can i cancel the cooling from my MacBook Air?

    How can i cancel the cooling system from my MacBook Air? It is running full speed by the start ervery time, also when the MacBook Air is cold.

    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.

  • HT2494 How do I connect my TV to my macbook air. The socket I used on my white macbook is not present?

    Have just bought a Macbook Air and the socket I used to use to connect my Macbook (White) to the TV when watching video is missing. What can I do?

    The new MacBook Air has a Thunderbolt port. Apple introduced this form factor with the Late 2008 model (then called MiniDisplay Port. I suspect your MacBook had a Mini-DVI port. So you'll need to purchase an adapter for this computer as well as any additional cabling.

    Don't pay any mind to the fact that it says MiniDisplay Port and not Thunderbolt, it's backwards compatible.

  • I can't print pdf files from my macbook air

    Hi, I am unable to print pdf files from the internet using my macbook air - I have the latest Adobe Reader, but still no help.....thoughts??

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
