I just got my Macbook air last week and it was fast, but it started to get slower yesterday. Why? And how can I fix it?

The only reason I bought the Macbook air was for speed. Will the laptop speed up again. Should I keep it or return it?

You can return a new Mac within 14 days of purchase.

I just bought my macbook pro last week and heard that people who purchased it can upgrade the OS X Mountain Lion for free. I actually just down loaded it but I paid for it! How can I my refund back??

Where did you buy this laptop? I know if I opened a box expecing and having paid for a 2012 model and found a 2010 model, I'd be back at the store demanding an exchange quicker than you could imagine. Open box or not, if you thought you were buying a 2012 model, you should get what you paid for.

Just got my iphone 5 last week and the power button is stuck now what

is my phone under warranty and can anything be done?

If there's no evidence of user damage (like you dropped it and that's why the power button is stuck), then your phone will be replaced without charge.

Why is my 2009 macbook running soooooo slowly and how can I fix it?

My 2009 macbook pro is running slowly. By slowly I mean in everything it does, it takes a long time loading (eg. turning on, opening apps, surfing the web, streaming videos, etc.)
I used EtreCheck to generate an overview of the state of my mac. Below is a copy of EtreCheck's report, starting with a my description of the problem:
Problem description:
My mac is running SOOOO slowly. I think it might be a RAM problem, but a lot of the processes shown in the Activity Monitor under Memory are related kernel_task. It looks like Google uses a bunch, as well as Window Server, loginwindow, https://itunes.apple.com, all of which (less Google) are also kernel_task.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
          SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
          View ▹ Show Log List

I just got my macbook air and at least once a day it has frozen and ive had to restart it is there a way to fix that?

i just got my macbook air, less then a week ago, and at least once a day it has frozen and ive had to restart it is there a way to fix that?

If the MBA is within 14 days of the purchase date from an Apple sore, you may return it for a refund or an exchange.
Regarding the specific problem you are facing, can you provide more details, such as the application that you were using and exactly what the response was.
Ciao.

My iPhone and iPad are on my moms icloud account and i just got a macbook air and i want all my devices on my own iCloud account - i went to all of my settings and it won't let me change my iCloud account on my phone and iPad. can i change this?

My iPhone and iPad are on my moms icloud account and i just got a macbook air and i want all my devices on my own iCloud account - i went to all of my settings and it won't let me change my iCloud account on my phone and iPad. can i change this?

You will have to do more than simply changing settings in your moms account. To set up everything in your own account, go to Settings > iCloud > scroll down and press sign out. From this, check out this link for how to setup iCloud on all of your devices after making a new icloud account on your phone: https://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Before you set that up, you will have to make a new iCould account which you can simply do after you sign out of your mom's account on your devices.
Hope I can help!

I just got my macbook pro a week ago and i was told that i will get the os x lion a week ago i was told that i can get it for free, is this true and if so how do i get it

i just got my macbook pro a week ago and i was told that i will get the lion for free, if this is true, then how do i get it.

Hi,
Not that's not normal and is one of the Problems I was having before Restoring as New...
Just make sure you Sync ALL your important Info... Contacts... Music... Etc... to your Computer...
and then do a Restore as New...
i was a bit reluctant at First, because I hadn't done it before... But it was So Easy and am Really Glad I did...
Cheers,

Severia,
I tried your solution, but it did not work with my laptop. After I restart the laptop, the language does not change and I cannot type the password in English language. Do you have any other suggestion?
Thank you.
