I have a mac book air. I felt down and I have broken the screen: several white lines on the screen. Do you know if I can only change the screen? Is it expensive?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Take your MacBook Air to an Apple Store or reseller to have your display replaced. If you want, you can buy the display yourself and install it, but as you can see, that's expensive > http://www.ifixit.com/MacBook-Parts/MacBook-Air-13-Inch-Mid-2012-Display-Assembl y/IF188-083?utm_source=ifixit_guide&utm_medium=guide_intro&utm_content=required_ items&utm_term=macbook_air_13%22_mid_2012

I have a mac book air 11". When I boot up connected to the huge Thunderbolt screen it detects the detects the fact and gives me great quality. now I am travelling away from the scree it boots up, nice picture, then switches to rubbish resolution.

I have a Mac Book air 11". Normally at home I connect this to a large Thuderbolt Screen. When booting up it some times gets confused and offers me a low resolution result, but some plugging and unplugging of the screen fixes this. I assume it sometimes "sees" the big screen and sets the resolition accordingly. Sometimes does not. But now... I am away from big screen and cannot get the Macbook air on its one to deliver anything other than really poor resolution. I ahve done displays and chosen all three - but no better. And I have said Choose the Best ONe... again not luck. Any ideas. I read in back posts this was a problem a few years ago.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
I believe you have a failing GPU (aka Video Card). Run AHT and see what it tells you. Do not be afraid to run it up to three times in succession if at first it does not detect an error (sometimes errors that are caused by overheating will not show up until the computer is stressed enough - repeating AHT will do that).
As an aside - the MBA was not designed to take the place of a desktop. If you are powering your MBA by leaving it permanently attached to the thunderbolt port on the monitor you are shortening your battery life.

I have a mac book air. Have had no issues with any virus before but today my safari page keeps directing me to a page which says " cyber crime" posing to be by Cheshire Police AUthority uk metropolitan police.Tells me that I have 24 hours to pay a 100 pounds.Using my ipad I looked it up and it appears to be a very common virus.I am worried about my Mac(relieved at the same time that I am not a cyber criminal
!) so anyway what should I do.I tried to fonce quit and then open safari but only that page keeps opening up.Looking up online their was a suggestion to reset safari, but I am unable to click on the reset safari tab as the pop up for stay on page keeps coming up.i have switched off my lap top now.But am really worried.How can I get rid of it?

It's not a virus. It's a JavaScript scam that only affects your web browser, and only temporarily.
Some of those scam pages can be dismissed very easily. Press command-W to close the tab or window. A huge box will pop up. Press the return key and both the box and the page will close. If that doesn't happen, continue.
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
and uncheck the box marked Enable JavaScript. Leave the preferences dialog open.
Close the malicious window or tab.
Re-enable JavaScript and close the preferences dialog.
If the Preferences menu item is grayed out, quit Safari. Force quit if necessary. Relaunch it by holding down the shift key and clicking its icon in the Dock. From the menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
to get rid of any cookies or other data left by the server. Open your Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.

I just purchased a camera packaged with Adobe photoshop Elements 11. I have a mac book air- which does not have a cd drive. The package did not come with a code or anything that would provide me with another way to install photoshop that came with my camera. Is there any other way i can install this on my camera without using the provided cd or buying the software again?

That doesn't help the user with the serial code though.
There has to be some kind of code somewhere within the package. The disk itself does not contain one. You can look here for help with finding your serial number:

Is it okay to upgrade to mversion mavericks? i have a mac book air version 10.8.5 and my safari is not responding..

i have a question is it okay to upgrade to OS mavericks? free upgrade? i have a mac book air version 10.8.5,

Shouldn't be a problem if your Mac can run Mavericks > OS X Mavericks: System Requirements
As for Safari. When you say not responding, do you mean it won't open a window, or it won't load websites, or it won't launch at all?
The more details you provide, the easier to help you.

HT1338 I dont have a mac book air can you install apps like (angry birds, temple run)

I dont have a mac book air. Can you install apps like angry birds and temple run?

Can you install them on what? Those are both iOS apps (meaning they can be installed on iPods, iPhones and iPads), but iOS apps cannot be run on either a Mac or a PC. I believe that there is a Mac version of Angry Birds as well, which is completely separate from the iOS version of Angry Birds.

I bought Mountain LIon but no dmg is downloaded. I can see the invoice from Apple but not the OS I supposed to receive. Is it a bugg?? I have a mac book air. Thanks

I have a Mac Book Air with 10.6.8. Is Montain Lion my only update option? Is it a must do?

You can also get Lion, but personally, I think Mountain lion is what Lion was supposed to be.
In any case, there is absolutely no reason for you to get either one; Snow Leopard is a nice and reliable OS - of course, if you want any of the added features of the newest OS, then you will have to buy and install it.
So, the decision is up to you. Also note: any older PPC apps that still worked on Snow Leopard will no longer work on the new OS - you'd have to purchase upgrades if one is available.

Why my mac book air warms up more and more often, more and more hot

Why my mac book air warms up more and more often,and more and more hot

I have this problem too when I use heavy applications like big intense games. When you use this, a lot of memory and CPU space is taken up. This causes the fan to spaz out. The fan tries to cool it off, which in turn makes an awkward loud noise. If it makes noise/and/or gets loud, go to "Activity Moniter" and see if anything is taking up a large amount of CPU %. If anything is 30%-70%, that a lot. Earlier, I transfered 2,400 pictures from my iPod to my Air, and it went crazy. Within like 3 minutes of it transferring, it got hot. I looked at the CPU %, and it was anywhere from 80%-somehow like 230%. Anything like games or apps or a lot of internet browsers can warm it up. One other huge thing that can cause this is airflow. If you operate it on like a pillow or something soft and/or somewhere with low airflow/circulation, your computer will get hot. So, either use it in your lap or on something like a table, and try not to overwork the computer. If neither of these things help, bring it in to the Apple store. I hope this helped! Good luck!

I have a mac book pro that i bought in late 2009. My current software is snow leopard version 10.5.8. I would like to get the new lion operating system but I cant without first getting the latest version of snow leopard. it doesnt show on software updat

I have a mac book pro that i bought in late 2009. My current software is snow leopard version 10.5.8. I would like to get the new lion operating system but I cant without first getting the latest version of snow leopard. however when I go to update my software it doesnt show that any update is available.

10.5.8 is Leopard, not Snow Leopard. You need the Snow Leopard DVD;
You can get it only by phone now from Apple.
In the US, call 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask for a sales assistant. Last quoted price was $19.99 for the single-user and $29.99 for the family licence.
For other countries, check here; http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
Don't forget to ask for Sales; the tech support guys can't help.
If you want Lion, rather than Mountain Lion, the same Sales team can give you a download code to use at the Mac AppStore.
To get the App Store, you need to update your new Snow Leopard from 10.6.3 (which is the version on the installer) to 10.6.8 with the combo update; http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Be warned that the upgrades will render a lot of older software unusable, and will need new drivers for printers and scanners in all likelihood.

My MAC book air keeps shutting down alone, what could I do?

since yesterday my mac book air keep shuting down alone with full battery, why is that? what could I do? Im working on my thesis so I really need my computer.

If this is a new Macbook Air - return it and ask for a replacement. You seem to be having this issue (the one which I described) which is still ongoing and occurring with new Machines. Apple has (in the US) a <14 day return policy do not let it expire. Especially if it occurs while plugged into mains power.
If it is not a new machine one other sometime/part-time cure is an SMC reset or a PRAM/NVRAM reset.
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

I want to change my iCloud account. Buying iPad we gave a virtual (forwarding) email addr. We need to change to a real address. But when we try to change the iCloud account, we can only change the password. Note: we don't have Mac, only iPad and Windows.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.
