When I connect my Macbook Air to my TV via the thunderbolt outlet and using a Mini Display Port/HDMl adaptor, the only image that appears on the TV screen is that of my Air background. There is obviously a signal getting through to the TV, but it is not sending images of anything else, and am unable to watch video through my Air. Any advise/suggestions?
This is called "extended desktop mode". It's an extension of the desktop off to the right (by default) of your MBair screen. Grab an app and drag it off the right side of your MBair screen and it will appear on the TV.
To mirror your MBair screen on the TV you can press Command F1. This will toogle between mirror and extended desktop.
You can find all the settings in System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement tab.

When I connect my mac air to some iPads through a powered USB hub for VPP/Configurator, the power point for the hub blows out (tripping the fuse in the building). I've tried different iPads, cords, power points and of course hubs. Also the computer has a habit of shutting down when any type of USB device is removed from it. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I've done some experimenting, and this is what I've found out:
1) The problem persists when I reformatted the USB HDD devices to ExFAT, so the problem apparently wasn't due to NTFS for Mac OS X by Paragon.
2) The problem persists even when BackBlaze is paused, so I don't think that it's due to BackBlaze.
3) The internet cuts out as soon as data begins transferring either to or from a USB HDD device and won't reconnected until I eject and unplug the device.
4) The problem affects data transfers through either USB port. -
LaCie 6TB drive ejects when Air sleeps: I use two 6TB LaCie drives - home and office with my Air, which travels with me between the locations. Only have a problem with one that inappropriately ejects when the Air sleeps (and only sometimes). Is there a fix? I've read others who believe that the problem is with the operating system (I'm using 10.9.2). But my problem suggests that it's with one of the LaCie's. Any suggestions about how to fix?
Lacie doesnt make HD, thats a Seagate inside the box.
Is there a fix?
Yes, get a 4TB max HD, 6TB drives are both new and have known issues, ...in fact so do most all 4TB drives.
my problem suggests that it's with one of the LaCie's
You mean Seagate
Large external hard drives are great! Large external hard drives are horrible
It is a common premise that people are overjoyed at the dropping prices per terabyte on external hard drives, and the first thing that enters most peoples minds is "great, I can put all my stuff on one drive,... all of it!" However considerations need to be made in creating a giant single choke point for not mere data loss, but seriously large data loss. If there is at the very least yet another redundant copy, this is fine, otherwise do not consider it whatsoever. Some 3TB and 4TB drives of all mfg. have, at the time of this writing, reliability concerns currently and best recommendation is staying at 2TB drives or less.
Advantages and disadvantages of larger 3TB and 4TB external drives must be weighed -
I have a MacBook Air with OS X and am having trouble accessing the ADT Pulse Home Security System cameras. The mobile (iPhone and iPad) apps allow access no problem, but I can't get a picture on the MacBook. Have tried Safari and Firefox browsers. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
From a Catherine to Katherine -- Had the exact same problem!! I had to enable Java twice - both in Safari and then on the MacBookAir itself.

When I start my MacBook Air, I get a problem report on the Time Capsule 802.11n. When I click Continue, it asks for a password. I don't know what the password is because I didn't set this up. How can I find out what the password is?
Who set it up?

HI i have macbook pro with OSX 10.8. I am facing typical problem with Wi- Fi , in school wi-fi it does'nt connects to http sites and connects only https as no security/proxy settings done but in home wi-fi it connects to all http and https sites. How to fix this problem as I am new this operating system. Please any one help me in this as I have installed Delicious Library which is not working in school becoz it searches amzon http site.
I would imagine that at school, you're required to connect through an HTTP proxy.
From the menu bar, select
▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. Enter the proxy settings given to you by the network administrator. Click OK and then Apply.
You may wish to create separate network locations for home and school. See the built-in help for instructions. -

When I connect my Macbook Pro to my Dell DLP projector, either via cable or wirelessly, I just see a dark screen with the mouse and mouse trails only, can any one help?
jpmarkques post is a good start point, after folling his directions, you can try detect displays. Also try different rsolution and refresh rates.
Most of the projectors I have used support a 1024X768 res.
Youcan also try a pram reset if it still does not detect.
Leave theproctor connected and powered up, power down the MBP.
Power back up the MBP and hold the following keys before you hear the start up chime:
Option, command, P,R (no commas) continue to hold these keys till you hear the start up chime 2 times. -
I'm having problems with 8.1 and Continuity / Handoff. It will work fine for web pages, etc. but in email when I try to do it between by iPhone 5s running 8.1 and my Macbook Pro running Yosemite I consistently get an error. "Failed to Continue Activity" Cocoa Error 4609. Handoff is working for phone calls and text messages. By email just crashes each time. It was also doing it under 8.0.2. My iPhone and iPad handle this fine. It's only the MacBook to the iPhone that fails, and only on email.

I keep getting notified I have an update available but when I try to update I get the following msg ,"You have updates available for other accounts To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.". I only have one account with apple and the software was preinstalled when I purchased my macbook in Aug 2012 with that account. Has anyone had this problem or know how to find out what account apple needs?
You log into the App store using the same Apple ID you used to set the computer up, verify that none of your apps are hidden and that they have all be accepted and then download and install the update
for help contact the App store support - link is on the right ot the App store window

Adobe AIR problems keeping Muse from installing - Can't install, uninstall or fix AIR
I'm on a iMac 27 inch running 10.9.2. Believe it or not I've been all over the place and back for 2 days.
I can't get Adobe AIR on my computer. Adobe Muse support told me that AIR is the reason that Muse won't go onto my computer and sends me to support for AIR, which promptly told me that I needed to come to the forum for help and would not connect me back to the support for Muse.
I have read some of the stuff here but it's not helping. I was having the issue that Matthew was having here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3628339.
So I manually uninstalled by throwing these items in the trash as instructed by Chris (because I'm afraid of Terminal):
/Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Application Installer.app
/Applications/Utilities/Adobe AIR Uninstaller.app
/Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework (the 3 I found where NOT in this folder. I searched and found them in Spotlight and later when I "put back" from the trash it put them somewhere with Flash CS6)
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AIR
Then I rebooted the computer and tried to install the new installation that support gave me in a chat window today and again got this error AGAIN:
Sorry, an error has occurred.
An error occurred while installing Adobe AIR. Installation may not be allowed by your administrator. Please contact your administrator.
Then I tried installing Adobe Muse that I was also given today because CC app keeps "installing" and saying it's on my computer but it is not. This says that it is going to install AIR because it needs it to work and I thought MAYBE it would be successful but it is not. It gives this error message:
"Sorry, an error has occurred. The application could not be installed. Try installing it again. If the problem persists, contact the application author Error #2038".
Incidentally, as somewhat indicated above, I have put the items that I manually uninstalled which were in the trash, back where they were, since it didn't fix anything.
A few other things to note:
1. I don't seem to have AIR in the Adobe AIR.framework in my System Library folder at all. There are however three variations of those in another folder somewhere with CS6 Flash (I can't find it again sorry)
2. I don't have that thing about "Automatic graphics switching" in my Energy Saving Panel.
3. I did Chris said in this post (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4053110#4053110) and this is what it said:

Thank you in advance.I finally got it to work!
Marydesigns, you may have already this, but this is what worked for me:
From http://helpx.adobe.com/air/kb/troubleshoot-air-installation-mac-os.html (not sure how i never stumbled across that page during the past few days)
-Using Finder, navigate to your Applications folder and look for a file (not a folder) named "Adobe". If one exists, rename or delete it.
-Open the Terminal application in your Applications/Utilities folder. Run the following commands:
sudo chmod -R ug=rwx,o=rx /Applications/Adobe
sudo chmod -R ug=rwx,o=rx ~/Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/
sudo chmod -R ug=rwx,o=rx ~/Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/AIR/
sudo chmod -R ug=rwx,o=rx /Users/Shared/Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/
NOTE: Terminal may state that some of these directories don't exist. Don't worry about it. It told me that 2 of them didn't exist, but this process still fixed my problem
-Next, adjust the ownership of a particular folder. Run the following two commands in Terminal, noting the user name response of the "whoami" command. Replace username with your username in the next command:
1. whoami
2. sudo chown -R username:staff ~/Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/AIR/
Again, Terminal may alert you that this directory doesn't exist. Just ignore it.
Close the Terminal application and rerun the Adobe AIR installer.
That got AIR working. I was then able to install Muse manually (not with Creative Cloud) by downloading it from http://adobe.com/go/muse_latest_mac
Hopefully this works for you! -
I have a Serial Number which worked fine on my MacBook Pro but does not work on my desktop PC (Win 7). What is the problem?
You haven't identified the version so I can't tell if offering you contact options for Adobe Support will be of use to you. But they will likely be your only hope of getting resolution unless you just happen to be using the wrong number as the serial number.

Only one mac out of six has a speed problem
I have two Mac Minis, a MacBook, two Blue and White G3s, and a Gigabit G4.
Five of the computers return a 2.0 Mbps D/L speed when I run the ATT speedtest page for my DSL.
The MacBook returns a 375 Kbps DL.
Speedtests were run over a couple dozen times and speeds reported have been very consistent.
Why? Location doesn't seem to matter. Two Macs are in another room and the MacBook is in the same room as the wireless router and three other Macs. Yes, I moved the MacBook around and currently it's only 4 feet away from the router and within 2 feet of the three other wireless Macs.
All machines are running 10.4.8 with all updates applied. Essentially there should be no difference between the MacBook and the two Minis... similar processors and software.
I'm not a noob when it comes to the network settings and there is nothing setup different in the MacBook other than the static IP address of course.
What could be going on here to cause the DSL download speed of the MacBook to be only 16% of the other 5 computers?
Thank-you.I think that a continuous, realtime monitoring of
available wireless networks could results in two kind
of problems: the software accessing the wifi card
resource, thus blocking access by the legitimate
manager software, and the network bandwidth being
occupied by continuous attempts of testing network
presence. The latter problem could partially hurt
also other connected computers, though it is divided
among 13 channels, only ne of which being really used
by your real network.
I agree.
This kind of problems is much more present in
Bluetooth, where the so called "aggressive polling"
is able to produce the equivalent of a denial of
service.
I also have Bluetooth turned on.
As long as just CoconutWiFi is killed, my speed is back to normal even with my Bluetooth.
