Increase mac book air memory storage

hello  to every one,
i got a mac book air running os x mavericks  13 inch and has an HDD of 128giga, is that possible for me to increase the memory or replace the hard disk?

The memory is not upgradeable after the original purchase but SSD (it has an SSD not a HDD) may be depending on how old it is. The following is a link to one reputable place that has SSD upgrades for older models: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC/Air-Retina

    I have MAC BOOK AIR 11'' 128 GB, A ny possibility to inscrease memory ?
    Thanks

    Memory? No, the RAM is permanently soldered to the Mainboard, and there is no proviso for expansion.
    If instead, you are speaking of the 128 GB SSD, then it may be possible to i ncrease the storage. See macsales.com

  • Is it possible to increase storge space on mac book air?

    I was thinking when I bought my mac book air that 64bg would be enough becasue on my iphone I never go over 16gb... I now have 34mb left on my mac book air and I was wondering if I can increase storge on my mac? Do I need to bring it to apple if it is possible? Where will I buy the extra storge?

    Yes you can - click on the link below and go to the near bottom of the page.
    Select which year your Macbook Air is and click it - from there you will see the available sizes for your Macbook Air.
    Keep in mind however, if your Macbook Air is under warranty - opening it and replacing your stock Flash Storage will void your warranty.
    If your warranty however, has expired - then go for it.

  • How do i get more memory on my mac book air? is says that i can add 2 more gig how?

    how do i get more memory on my mac book air? is says that i can add 2 more gig ??? or wat files can i delete

    Macbook Air memory is soldered to the logicboard.
    You can only get 4GB or 8GB (2012 Models) in the Air when you order it that way.  Otherwise, you're stuck with 2GB.
    Unless you're talking about hard drive space - then it is upgradeable - click HERE to see which one corresponds to your model.

  • Can anyone recommend an external storage device to supplement my mac book air?  I already have a time capsule but want the new device to replicate the data on that so ideally would like a device that i can connect to the time capsule through a cable.

    Hi CJR
    I'm not sure how Time Capsule can be replicated onto your external drive but there is a USB port on the back of TC that can be hooked up to any recent external drive.
    Another thing to think about , besides a Time Capsule failure, is the theft of your Time Capsule, so it might be a good idea to consider separating any redundant back-up from your Time Capsule or both my be stolen.
    TC will back up until full and then begin deleting the oldest back-ups.  Mine is a 2TB Time capsule.
    My back-up plan is as follows:
    1.  Macbook Air back-up on Time Capsule though Time Machine backs up everything - I think it's about every 30 min or so.
    2.  Contacts, reminders, appointments, notes, email are backed up through iCloud.
    3.  iTunes and non-itunes purchased music is on iMatch (and no need to back-up) and any non-iTunes music is backed up on an HP external drive (in case Time Capsule dies)
    4.  Photos are on my MacBook Air and are backed up on my HP external drive.
    5.  Office documents (Excel, Powerpoint, Access etc) are stored in a Skydrive app (like iCloud) and Skydrive syncs these docuemnts with the MS  cloud and my old PC and does not alter their native format like storing in iCloud would do.
    Cheers

  • Why is the storage of apps on my mac book air so large?

    I have just downloaded Os x Yosemite on my mac book air, and when I checked my storage my app's section is very large. It says I have 43.33GB of apps, but when i check the amount of my apps in finder it only says I have about 10GB. One day i check it's 36.45 the next day it was 43.33 every when i didn't download or delete any apps on my computer. Why is this happening?

    Yes, it is , however its very costly, and you should consider storing static media files on an external HD.

  • Mac Book Air (11") Partition Problems

    I am using a mac book air (first generation) with a windows partition (30GB mac, 90GB Windows approximately). When I decided to switch back to mac I went to the disk utility and deleted the windows partition. But when I tried to resize the 30GB mac partition (OS extended journal) it simply doesn't increase and now my entire disk appears to have a 30GB size. (I did not use book camp to delete the partition and now it is not possible). How can I resize to the original 120 GB preferably (but not necessarily) losing files and applications of mac system?

    Buy MacBook Air 11.6-inch, MId 2014, with 1.4 GHz  dual core i5 processor.
    Model number may be same. But Mid 2013 model had 1.3GHz dual core i5 CPU.
    If possible, upgrade memory to 8GB RAM.
    Best.

  • How do I unlock file permissions on an external flash drive connected to a mac book air?

    Hi there, I have just synced my I tunes library to I Tunes on my mac book air using a WD external flash drive (which I have always used as my storage drive for my entire library and was previously running on a Sony Vaio PC) and although I can now see and play all my files I can't download new content as I get an error message stating "there was a problem downloading.... you don't have priveleges to make changes" which from my research is because the flash drive I tunes folder permissions within it are locked to read only.
    Which is where the problem lies as I can't see anyway to change this when clicking on the drives in my devices and going to the get info option, as although it shows the permission status - you can't edit that?
    Note I know this is the issue as if I change the I tunes media folder location back to the defualt folder as the hard drive on the mac book I can then download new files no problem, however I dont want to store my content on the hard drive of my mac book air as my library is over 300gb and want to keep it all on the external (as I always did when running I tunes on my PC).
    Any help will be apprecaited guys!
    Thanks

    If the drive is formatted as MS-DOS or exFAT, use the Disk Utility in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to repair it.
    If it's formatted as NTFS, either reformat it or install third-party software which enables the Mac to write to NTFS drives.

  • I have a late model mac book air 11 inch can i upgrade to a solid state hard drive

    i have a late model mac book air 11 inch can i upgrade to a solid state hard drive

    If you're looking to get an SSD with increased capacity, they can be purchased from OWC:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC/Aura_Pro_Express
    They are very easy to install.
    Note that I'm not sure on how this may impact your warranty.  Nothing in an Air is considered user upgradable.  Therefore there would be no reason for a consumer to open it up.  As Apple does not consider the SSD as user replacable, it may cause warranty issues.  I have not seen any comments from anyone who has upgraded their SSD and subsequently had to have service.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Instead of using Ethernet, both Macs have got Thunderbolt. I recommend you to get a Thunderbolt cable and use it to transfer your files. The transfer will be much faster.

    My main question is I use parralells and windows 7 for some mapping software I use on my current macbook pro. Will this software be copied across as well or will I need to repurchase it all. Equally the question applies to purchased software such as pages, numbers, ms office for mac etc will they copy across to or will I need to rebuy?
    Migration Assistant will ask you what you want to transfer, and one of the folders it will ask you to transfer is Applications. If you tick it, all your applications will be transferred, including Parallels, Pages, Numbers, Office for OS X, etc. You may need to reactivate them. Also, you may have to buy Office again depending on the license you have. Transfer the Documents folder because the Parallels virtual machine is saved there.
    I recommend you to transfer your files during the initial setup of the MacBook Air, so you will only have one user > http://pondini.org/OSX/SetupLion.html

  • How can I read a document created under "pages" on a Mac book air on an other computer

    How can I read a document created under "pages" on a Mac book air on an other computer or even send this document in a mail to anyone ?

    Only Pages, Preview, Pages for iCloud beta, and Pages v2 or later on IOS 7 can open native Pages v5.2.2 (.pages) documents. Sending a Pages v5.2.2 document to someone without Pages v5.2.2 is futile.
    If you are using Gmail or Dropbox, you will need to right-click on that Pages document, and then choose compress from the contextual menu. You can then attach filename.pages.zip, because it appears as a single document, and not a folder.
    Pages v5.2.2 has a Share button on the Toolbar. Providing your document is already in iCloud storage, you can Send a Link to iCloud via the following:
    The Share toolbar icon also allows you to Send a Copy to Email, Messages, and AirDrop. This will present you with the document export sheet, the same one you get if you chose to File > Export To menu item, as the alternative.
    If you are sharing document content with an MS Office user, then the document you want to send them is either a Word .docx, or .doc. If they want just a read-only view of your content, send a PDF, for improved cross-platform exchange.
