If i upgrade my ssd on my macbook air do it void my apple care ?
If i upgrade my ssd on my macbook air do it void my apple care ?
Possibly...maybe... Apple does not definitely say.
They do indicate that the component is not user servicable.
This would tend to indicate that they would have discretion as to whether or not you violated the terms of coverage for a future claim when you serviced a non-servicable component.

I want to upgrade my iPhone on my macbook air
i want to upgrade my iphone on my macbook air, but my itunes acct wont download everything. help!
Do you want more space or do you want more speed?
If going SSD is out of the question because of the price, the I suggest you go with a Hybrid Drive.
The Seagate Momentus XT 750GB is a nice drive that is faster than your standard 7200RPM and might be large enough for your needs.
Invest about $200 and do the Seagate Momentus Drive and RAM upgrade. That will give you a nice performance boost.
The RAM you need would be 4GB 1066MHz DDR3 204 PIN SODIMM - you'll need two them to get 8GB.
Good luck.. -

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Apple doesn't allow you to upgrade the storage of a MacBook Air, but you can do it without any problem. However, you will void warranty and it's expensive. Read > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC/Aura_Pro_Air_2012
The other option is to buy an external disk -
Exclamation mark appears instead of photo. Recently upgraded from i mac to Macbook air and all was transferred over. I have run all the repair and rebuild functions in iphoto. Any other solution?
Since iPLM failed to help try the following:
Starting over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Open the library package like this.
2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
Note: your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

After upgrade to Lion OS, my MacBook Air is noisy (Heating)
after upgrade to Lion OS, my MacBook Air is noisy (Heating)
Hi there,
I am sorry to hear that.
It seems that Lion's "demands" regarding processor power and RAM are significantly higher than those of Snow Leopard. I guess there is very little you can do - except maybe (like many of us) hope for a less processor-cycle hungry 10.7.1 update.
Moreover, if you have processes like Time Machine, Spotlight or - say - Backblaze doing extensive work in the background (as they do when you switch them on for the first time), that will also eat up a lot of processing power.
Finally, there are a lot of hardware gadgets called "notebook coolers" which are very often simply metal plates which help conducting the heat away from the "underbelly" of your MacBook Air.
Hope this helps a bit & good luck! -

i have an itunes library with 1,000+ songs on a pc. my daughter has a macbook air and i loaded my apple ID onto it. how do i get the songs from my itunes account to show up? This works fine on her iPhone, but having trouble on the new macbook air
Hey kbert73
I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

Does Apple Genius change my iMac hard drive to SSD?? If i already bought a ssd ??? and just take ssd and my imac to genius and maintain my apple care??
wouldn't it make a difference if the SSD was an Apple product? And can't you order just the Apple SSD? At the local Apple store many of the geniuses won't touch it if it's a third party item.

I ordered my macbook pro online along with the apple care but apple says that the care will not be phyically sent. What does this mean? Is there something I need to do?
Since you're ordering both the computer & AppleCare directly from Apple, Apple Care will automatically be registerd. Thus, nothing for you to do other than enjoy your computer.

I recently purchased a MacBook Air and was told by Apple that Keynote and Pages were compatible with MS Applications.. I have since tried to open a Powerpoint Presentation but it comes up with an error message and is not right. Help!
If there are fonts, transitions, builds, video or audio in the PowerPoint file that are not compatible with Keynote, it will either prevent the presentation opening or Keynote will substitute the settings causing playback changes.
I use Open Office to play and open any PowerPoint files sent to me, they play exactly as in PowerPoint.
Open Office is free, you can download it here:

Upgrading ssd on a macbook air 2011
Hi, I have a mid 2011 macbook air with the 64gb ssd and i am considering upraging this if possible?...
also if this can be done (and by apple that is) how much will it cost me roughly?
cheersNot likely. Look at the installation video that OWC provides. I think you will find that it is not rocket science and that mere mortals are capable of performing the installation. That is unless you have 10 thumbs.

Why is a laptop designed from ground up to use flash slower then a older laptop with a upgraded SSD from a 3rd party?
My old MBP is more then 2x the speed (read/write) with a SSD upgrade (Samsung 830) then my Air.
Any fixes or mods to boost the flash speed of the Air?We would like you to show us how to do that.......Especially when the Samsung 830 will not fit the Air.....Please don't say duct tape....
Ok, scratch that idea. Let me think for a moment,,,em,,,em. OK I got it. Sell both units and buy a mid Macbook Air 2012 version.
(d-mn I'm good)
