Macbook Air 1,1 (Jan 15 2008) needs upgrade ram

Macbook Air 1,1 (Jan 15 2008) Core2 Duo 1.6ghz processor, 80gb HD, 2gb Ram
Can it be upgraded to 4gb? Tech specs do not help because there is no indication for upgrade nor mention of slots.
Does this mean ram is soldered to mother?

No. The RAM on a MacBook Air is soldered to the motherboard and can't be upgraded after it leaves Apple.

i use a macbook air 128GB but i wan to upgrade to 256GB can~?on apple store

No, or at least not without voiding your warranty. Neither the RAM nor the storage on MBA or retina MBP is considered user serviceable nor is it an upgradeable part through Apple.
You really need to buy any of those all-solid state machines with what you want, as that is all it's ever going to have.

HT201177 my macbook air doesnt show airplay mirroring need a help

my macbook air doesnt show airplay mirroring need a help

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
AirPlay Mirroring needs OS X Mountain Lion or later > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404 Your MacBook is compatible, so you have two options:
1. Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion or Mavericks. Open the Mac App Store and download OS X Mavericks. Make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com After upgrading, you will see the AirPlay icon on the menu bar.
2. Keep Lion and use an app like AirParrot or Beamer to mirror your MacBook Air's display to the Apple TV

I just tried the link and it is just fine. If the GateKeeper pops up then open Security & Privacy preferences, click on the General tab, set the last radio button to Anywhere.

Can Macbook Air 11" (1.4 Ghz 2 GB Ram 128 GB HD) run xCode as well ?

I've planed to buy a new portable laptop which lighter and smaller than other. I doubt,Can Macbook Air 11" (1.4 Ghz 2 GB Ram 128 GB HD) run xCode as well ? I love its design.

If you are referring to the XCode Tools program development system, then the answer is, Yes.

I cant upgrade to yosemite im running os 10.6.8

Are you sure your MacBook Air was built in December 2008?
Early 2008 MacBook Airs (model identifier MacBookAir1,1) can't run any OS newer than Lion (10.7):
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook-air/specs/macbook-air-core-2-duo-1 .6-13-specs.html
Late 2008 MacBook Airs (model identifier MacBookAir2,1) are capable of running Yosemite:

From the Apple menu, select "About This Mac" and see what it tells you. Your Mac may be too old to run Yosemite.

Migrating to new macbook air with Lion, entourage 2008 doesn't work

I bought a new macbook air with lion installed. trying to migrate data from my old macbook with snow leopard. Got most data across, and installed my most frequently used applications:
- office 2008: most office apps 2008 work, if buggily. entourage not, see below.
- firefox (hangs up when downloading updates)
- dropbox (ditto)
<these two problems may have something to do with internet proxy settings, will try to sort that out later>
MAIN ISSUE:
entourage wont open at all. so for now i'm using my old comp for e-mail and the new for the rest.
MY OPTIONS:
please advise (1) what you think is the most time & nerve-saving option (2) how to do it smoothly:
A) try to get office 2008 to work.
when trying to open entourage, it tells me this version (office 2008 12.0) cannot open this entourage database (12.3)
error for other apps says there is a problem with database, and rebuilding several times did not fix it.
would have to start with updating to the version i used last (office 2008 12.3). Problem is the ms office updater does not seem to work on lion. the first update does not open, says it does not support powermac.
B) buying office 2011, and migrating entourage 2008 to outlook.
I suppose the best way to do this is to install office 2011 on the old mac first, then on the new one, then move database, right?
C) migrating from entourage 2008 to lion mail.
best way to do this would be to import entourage email to leopard mail, then move those files to the new mac? and move entourage addresses into the mac addressbook. my major concern is that i have a lot of mailing rules, and a fair bunch of notes. a lot. i;d rather not have to recreate those by hand. Is there a way to import rules from entourage to mail?
i also habe a huge backstock of mail, over 10,000, and a correspondigly huge addressbook (within entourage). i'm ready to abandon entourage at last (though i used it for a decade), but i want to have my addresses, my rules, and at least the last 3 yrs of emails. i get about 130 mails a day so i need plenty of automatic organizing capability.
i never had issues my old mac/snow leopard, i just ran out of ram and the one usb broke, so i figured it's time. kinda sorry i did not just get the usb repaired and extra ram. what a hassle these migrations always are.
cheers!

Yes, repairing first is a sound idea. In my experience I've only moved from Entourage to the OS X applications or from one version of Entourage to another. In the latter I've been able to just copy over the Microsoft User Data folder. But I have not used Entourage for quite some time.
Microsoft don't make it quite that easy to migrate to their own applications, but the import from a 'tidy' .rge file works well, I had a lot of issues with the first few I migrated but after performing a database repair prior to import all proceeded smoothly.

Will a macbook air be enough for my needs?

Hello everyone,
I'm looking to get a new mac, and I am in a bit of a dilemma between the MBA and the MBP (non retina).
First of all, let me explain that the reasons for not getting the retina are basically that I feel a bit uncomfortable/scared because of all the "ghosting problems" that one comes across almost everywhere on the web. Even though I know AppleCare could take care of it, etc, I just don't have the time in my daily workload to 1) go somewhere to get help, and 2) be a few days/weeks without a computer.
My current and near future needs are:
1. Development tools
     1a. I will run different development tools/IDEs (not at the same time, of course), like Netbeans, PyCharm, Eclipse, etc. Even Visual Studio 2012 on a           VM/Parallels.
     1b. Compiling time is an issue
     1c. Git(hub)
2. Document/File editing
     2a. For this I'd need something for LaTex, and then Pages, MacVim, TextMate, etc.
3. Web development (no graphics)
     3a. I run a wiki for college which is located in a remote server, a personal web page, and a forum.
4. Browsing/Info, Mail, Newsgroups, Skype, etc
     4a. Typical web browsing for information (no facebook, no twitter, etc), RSS feeds, etc.
     4b. I haven't gotten used to "Mail", so I use Thunderbird for mail and newsgroups
     4c. I need to run Skype
5. Virtualization
     5a. I will run either a VM or Parallels for a virtual windows and a virtual linux machine to test out stuff and use programs which are
          required for the university. I will most probably not have them both running at the same time, but I can never be sure.
6. VPN
     6a. I will need to use a secure remote connection to the university.
7. SFTP, SSH, etc
     To connect to remote servers in the university.
8. Long hours of staring into the screen
9. Portability.
     9a. I don't mind dragging weight with me, but only if I really need it. Sometimes I have to get up and go to another classroom, or just take a break to get a      coffee, etc, and I need to bring my laptop with me since I can't leave it around unattended.
10. Battery life
     Although I will always try to plug in, this will not always be possible and in such cases I need to rely on my laptop to not let me down in times of need.
I don't do any video/music/foto editing. I'm an engineering major specializing in embedded systems but also need to take classes in databases, Java/C# development, etc. I know most IDEs are bloated, and so it is important that I get enough power to run at least one of them at a given time without experiencing lag or crashes.
I've worked on 12,5", 13,3" and 15" screens and I am able to cope with all of those. I have a cheap 22" monitor in the dorm where I can just plug in my computer when I'm home, but needless to say I am barely home...
I know the MBAs have recently gotten a very good upgrade, and are very well built, whereas the MBPs have a CD/DVD drive which I don't need and still use a slightly oldier technolgy. Also, one of my concerns is about the possible "breakability" of the MBA. I don't know how strong it is, but I need to feel comfortable enough to have it in my backpack while taking the bus/train/subway full of people and not being afraid that it'll break because I forgot to put the back between my legs or something like it. With the pro, I'd be pretty conscious of it because of the weight, and also, the big and thick laptop won't just "break" ;-)
I'd love to get some input/ideas on this to try and make the wisest decision possible.
Thanks for your time.

Macbook Air Mid-2013 slows down after upgrading to Yosemite

Dear support community,
After upgrading my computer to Yosemite, it started performing much slower than usual. Some of the interactions are sluggish, sometimes switching tabs on Chrome will stop the music for a few miliseconds, etc.
Here's my EtreCheck report in case you can spot the problem here. Thank you so much for your help!

MacBook Air unresponsive after opening iTunes after upgrade to 11.1

I recently upgraded my MacBook Air to new version of iTunes, I believe it was 11.1 if that was what came out yesterday, and now the computer is unresponsive once I open iTunes. A sign in box for a premier networks podcast is displayed but I am unable to enter any information as it will not allow any input. The iTunes and apple menu cannot be accessed. The only way to regain control of the computer is to force quit iTunes. The podcast that the sign in box appears to be associated with is a PBS podcast that was deleted a very long time ago.

Hi mbharrison!
You may want to try reinstalling the application by following the instructions in this article:
OS X Mountain Lion: Reinstall apps that came with your Mac

Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

HT202380 Can I use a back drive that I had on my PC on my new Macbook Air? Or do I need to purchase a new backup drive?

Can I use my back drive from my PC with my new Macbook Air and Time Machine? Or do I need to get a whole new back up external hard drive?

You should be able to use a drive that was previously used with a PC. You will likely need to reformat it. Note the following quote from Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support
Your Time Machine drive needs to be formatted as Mac OS X Extended (Journaled). If you select an NTFS or FAT-formatted drive, Time Machine prompts you to reformat the drive. Important: Reformatting erases any files on the destination drive. If you're not sure if you want to erase the drive you connected, choose a different drive.
The following gives instructions on how to reformat to Mac OS X Extended. It refers to Aperture but the instructions would be the same: Format external drives to Mac OS Extended before using with Aperture - Apple Support

How do I set up original windows 8 DVD on a Macbook air when my external drive needs both usb ports?

got a brand new macbook air and want to set up an original Windows 8 DVD via bootcamp. Probleme: my external DVD needs 2 usb port connection so I want have a chance to plug in an usb drive at the same time.
Any other choice to get along?

ok I'll try this - why didn't I have this problem with my previous Macbook air - I cannot remember how I managed setting up an original Win 7 with exact.the same equipement. Has the bootcamp Software changed? I remember burning a cd with the Windows Driver.

I just bought macbook air yesterday. Do I need to buy OS X Moutain Lion from App store?

Please becase I saw from app store there hv a osx lion. Do i need to buy it to my new macbook air?

If you bought a new MacBook Air, it probably has OS X Mountain Lion, but to check this, open  > About this Mac, and check the version. If it's 10.8, you are running Mountain Lion.
The Mid 2013 MacBook Air uses a special OS X Mountain Lion version compatible with this MacBook, so you can't use the Mountain Lion version you can purchase at the Mac App Store. Instead, when you need to reinstall Mac OS X, use OS X Recovery > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
