  • Macbook Air 11" (Mid 2013) takes time to become active after being inactive for a while

    I've got Macbook Air 11" (Mid 2013). But it has an issue of taking up some time to be active after it has been inactive for a while (like when i dont use it for a while the macbook autosleeps and then when i want to work on it and try to get it active the screen only shows mouse pointer in a black screen and then the other components like the small window where you enter password and other takes time to appear...)
    plz help...I've been facing this problem for 2 weeks now...and wanna fix it as soon as possible....plz help...

        Hope this helps.

  • Can I use my Macbook Air 13" mid 2013 with plugging charger even at 100 % battery full charge?

    I can't decide whether using My Macbook Air 13" mid 2013 with charging power adapter connected even though it is fully charged Or using Macbook Air with unplugging charger after fully charged. Please advice me to maintain my Macbook's battery at good condition.

    It will not hurt it as long as you do not leave it on the charger for an extensive period of time (say, days).

  • Macbook Air 11" mid 2013 battery

    My macbook air 11" mid 2013 serial # C02KTARJF5N8 is showing only 4:30 hrs on the battery meter at the top on a full charge and is advertized to last for 9 hr

    I would suggest going into the apple logo, selecting about this mac, more info, then system rpoert, from there you will see power. Click on this and It will show a charge remaining and cycle count, ring apple with this info and they will tell you if theres a problem straight away. It will alsow show the condition and you will find out more info there. Also if your running RAM heavy apps this will effect battery life, but if theres a fault you will see it there. Any issues ring apple and they will tell you if theres an issue hope this helps

  • How come my Macbook Air 11inch mid 2013 is running very slow?

    I recently bought it new, then couple months later, the fan would play very loudly, and everything went slow and laggy. I checked activity monitor and it says kernel_task is taking up a lot. Please let me know if there are any ways to make my macbook run back to normal, thank you!

    The kernel is using excessive processor cycles. Below are some possible causes for the condition.
    Throttling
    When it gets high temperature readings from the hardware, or low voltage readings from the battery of a MacBook, the kernel may try to compensate by interrupting the processor(s) to slow them down and reduce power consumption. This condition can be due to:
    ☞ a buildup of dust on the logic board
    ☞ high ambient temperature
    ☞ a worn-out or faulty battery in a portable
    ☞ the malfunction of a cooling fan, a temperature sensor, a voltage sensor, or some other internal component
    Note that if the problem is caused by a sensor, there may be no actual overheating or undervoltage.
    If the computer is portable, test with and without the AC adapter connected. If kernel_task hogs the processor only on AC power, charging is causing the machine to heat up. That behavior may be normal for some models. CPU usage should drop when charging is complete.
    Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test, though not very reliable, is sometimes able to detect a fault. For more thorough hardware testing, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.
    If nothing is wrong with the hardware, then whatever you can do to improve cooling may help.
    Installed software
    User-installed software that includes a device driver or other kernel code may thrash the kernel. That category includes virtualization software, such as Parallels and VMware, as well as most commercial "anti-virus" products. Some system-monitoring applications, such as "iStat," can also contribute to the problem. You can test for this possibility by completely disabling or removing the software according to the developer's instructions, or starting in safe mode. Note, however, that disabling a system modification without removing it or testing in safe mode may not be as easy as you think.
    Corrupt NVRAM or SMC data
    Sometimes the problem is cleared up by resetting the NVRAM or the SMC.
    External display
    Connecting an external LCD display to some MacBook Pro models while the lid is open may cause this issue. If applicable, test by closing the lid or disconnecting the display. You might get better results with a newer LED display.

  • MacBook Air 13" Mid 2013 Display go Blank

    I have set my MacBook Air Energy Saver setting to its default settings...
    When its go on standby mode then i click/swipe on trackpad immidiately , Display going blank but keyboard Is working.
    And if i wait 10 to 15 sec after standby then there is no issue.
    Please Advice me how to fix it

    If you take a look at these (very lengthy) threads, you will see this is a widely reported problem, for which Apple have yet to produce a solution.  It is said that they are working on a firmware update that will address it but this has been talked about for a long time and still no update.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5118135?start=0&tstart=0
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5475679?start=0&tstart=0
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5495588?start=0&tstart=0
    The current "solution" (which is not a solution) given by Apple is to set sleep mode to 'never', or to wait a few secconds after sleep before waking the MBA, or install the free App 'Caffeine" which allows you to manually activate sleep and wake.
    Some persons have claimed a "bare metal restore" of the operating system resolved the problem but others have tried this without success.

  • Macbook Air 11'' (mid 2013) My display isn't running as smooth as it was before, especially when using multi-gesture commands

    Hello, the major issue is that when I use a multi-gesture command like 2 finger swipe to check out my notifications or when I use 4 finger swipe to switch between apps, the edges of the app or window kind of get cut. Ignore the ghost effect in the picture. That's just because of the camera. Anyway, so you see that some widgets and the window on the right are like cut. Also when I do 4 finger swipe up or down, the windows don't move smooth at all. It looks more like a horribly done stop motion movie. An other thing is that when I hover over the dock, the magnifying effect vibrates for an instant before it fully magnifies and also when I'm hovering away it vibrates before it returns to its normal size. Also when I move the cursor quickly from one side to an other within the dock, sometimes the dock also gets cut. I started to notice these issues a little while after the update for issues with WiFi and Photoshop, maybe it has something to do with that. Any help is welcome.

  • Where is the antenna located in the Style 9670?

    Hello
    I do not own a BB yet but thinking of buying a Style 9670 soon. It is still available in India and the phones here are not tied up to the service provider. My phone usage is minimal since it causes ear pain whenever I talk on a GSM/CDMA phone. So I use it on speaker phone or use the hands free headset but that is not always practical. I am looking for a phone that has the internal antenna farthest from the ear. Phones with lower SAR won't help. Using the cordless phone and wi-fi at home is ok but mobile phone radiation always casues pain and tinnitus when the phone is held directly to the ear, even for few seconds.
    I believe that most Blackberry handsets have their cellular antenna at the bottom (near the mic) and the GPS/Bluetooth/Wi-fi antenna at the top? If this is true then it's good for me. Also, where exactly would be the cellular antenna in a flip phone? Is it there in the lower half (keyboard area) or the upper half (display area)? 

    The 9670 is a CDMA network only device, are you sure it will work on any carrier in India?

  • Macbook air 2014 is 2013 mid?

    I bought macbook air in russian apple online store 1 month ago. Now I open settings and see that macbook air is mid 2013...
    Why is that?
    Is it normal?
    < Personal Infromation Edited By Host  >

    Weird - I thought I posted an answer to this already. The i7 model wasn't updated, just the core i5 model so it is indeed a mid 2013 computer.
    It's a bad idea to include personal information - like a computer serial number - in your post. I've asked a moderator to edit the post to remove it.

    the thing is that when i did the clean install they did check with a hardware test first and nothing was wrong, i guess it was a false-positive, is there anything in the kernel report from which i can say it's either hardware or software related

  • MacBook Air 11-inch, Mid 2013 won't boot with external USB keyboard

    Hello,
    Just bought a MacBook Air 11-inch, Mid 2013 (8GB, i7, 512GB SSD) today.
    All available software updates are installed (OS X 10.8.4 (12E3067)).
    Also have a Macbook Pro Retina.
    If I connect a external USB keyboard (Kinesis Advantage Pro USB) to the Air then it don't boots.
    If the keyboard is connected directly to the Air USB port then it don't shows the Apple logo on grey background after power on, just give a endless loop of the turning on sound.
    If the keyboard is connected to the Thunderbolt display then same empthy grey screen after power on and no sound at all.
    The same keyboard and Thunderbolt display work well with my Macbook Pro Retina and a Macbook Air 2011.
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks,
    Karsten

    I like it very much. I use it on my iPad (and occasionally my iPhone). I'm kind of a keyboard snob actually. I tried the Apple wireless keyboard first. Apple keyboards have a short throw that hurts the tips of my fingers. They're very pretty but the on button turns on when I don't want it to and my iPad wakes up in my bag. Strike 1.
    I went to a little keyboard called the Joy and it had a positive switch so I didn't have the wakeup problem. It worked well though after several months I wore it out and had to replace it with another one. I also didn't like how flat it sat and used rubber bumpers on the back. It too had a short throw that hurt my finger tips after a while but it was better than the Apple.
    Then I discovered the Logitech bluetooth keyboard, the K811. This is a great keyboard. It switches between multiple targets with one press, it has a positive on/off switch, the keys light up, it's rechargeable and lasts a long time, and the slight cushioning on the keys keeps my fingers from hurting. I put the rubber bumpers on it though like the Joy because I like the keyboard to sit up a little. It's a tiny bit bigger than the other keyboards but I like it a lot, better than my MBA keyboard and better than my iMac wired keyboard. I'm trying out an after market keyboard on the iMac now but I'm thinking about switching to one of these for the iMac.

  • My MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2013) Flash Drive replaced twice in one week?

    My MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2013) crashed a week ago, and Apple repair replaced SSD. Last night, it crashed again. I'm taking it in to have the SSD replaced again! I saw Apple's Flash Drive Replacement Program for the earlier MBA's, so why haven't they fixed this problem?
