MacBook Air and Harmony Remote

I recently purchased a Harmony 900 remote and am trying to configure it on my MacBook air. Harmony admits that there are communication problems with their remotes and Snow Leopard Mac.
Their work around is to go to network settings and specifically configure the USB port by changing it to Ethernet Adaptor.
However I cannot do this since the MBA only as a USB Ethernet.
I can post the Link to Harmony's FAQ if it helps.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
thanks

I'm having the same problem with my Air, Harmony 900, and Snow Leopard.
Supposedly Logitech's top Mac tier II support person, guy with a Russian/Eastern European accent, couldn't figure it out and said he was going to speak with the product specialist about it. That was over a month ago and I never heard back from Logitech.
I'm on hold with them right now again. I've already spent several hours trying to troubleshoot the problem.

  • MacBook Air problem with Remote Disc

    I am trying to upload a disc to my MBA from a shared MBPro.  Remote Disc recognizes the shared MBP and the CD but cannot access the data.  Any suggestions?

    Actually the restriction DOES apply to an audio CD.
    From this document:http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2057
    "MacBook Air and Mac mini do not support playing DVD movies or audio CD media with Remote Disc. In addition, some discs, such as game discs, may be copy-protected and are therefore unusable. To play DVD movies, audio CD media, or copy-protected discs on the MacBook Air or Mac mini, use the MacBook Air SuperDrive."

    Since you have another Mac, you could share it's DVD drive in System Preferences > Sharing.
    Then use Remote Disc found on the MBair's finder's sidebar.  This will mount the DVD in your old Mac to the MBair.

  • HT3255 my MacBook Air and iPhone 5 has been stollen, how can i block them. They were new. Never used.

    My MacBook Air and I phone 5 has been stolen, how can I block them. They were new and unused.

    If they were "unused", then it is very unlikely that "Find My Mac" or "Find My iPhone" is set up in order to locate, erase and/or remotely disable the systems.
    All you are really left with is ordinary law enforcement in order that you report the incident and hope that they surface in that manner.

  • I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive.  I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto.  How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive?

    I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive.  I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto.  How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive in Iphoto?

    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • I just got the mid 2011 macbook air and it does not have ilife or iPhoto on it...isnt it supposed to come with it? and if it does then how do i get it on the mac without having to pay for it in the app store?

    I just got a macbook air and i thought that it was supposed to come with ilife already installed? But there is not ilife apps...how do i get  it on the laptop without having to buy them all from the app store if it was supposed to come with it?

    From the iPhoto Licence:
    3. Transfer.
    A. Apple Software obtained from the Mac App Store is not transferable. If you sell your Apple-branded hardware to a third party, you must remove the Apple Software from the Apple-branded hardware before doing so.
    B. For any preinstalled Apple Software, you may make a one-time permanent transfer of all of your license rights to the Apple Software (in its original form as provided by Apple) to another party, provided that: the Apple Software is transferred together with your Apple-branded hardware; (ii) the transfer must include all of the Apple Software, including all its component parts, printed materials and this License; (iii) you do not retain any copies of the Apple Software, full or partial, including copies stored on a computer or other storage device; (iv) you have not associated the Apple Software with your Mac App Store account as set forth in Section 2B; and (v) the party receiving the Apple Software reads and agrees to accept the terms and conditions of this License.
    If the previous owner accepted the preinstalled software (iPhoto, etc) to the AppleID, it cannot be passed on to a new owner. Even if the previous owed would use her or his Applied to install it for you, you would never be able to reinstall it or to update it.
    In that case buy your own copies of the software.

  • Can I use a memory stick to back up my MacBook Air and what size do I need?

    i Have a MacBook air , processor 1.3 Ghz Intel core i5, 4GB 1600 MHz DDR3 memory. Operating on OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.1.
    it will not open up Safari, it crashed out of Safari with an error message and will not ooen it up now however many times I try.  I was reading Daily Mail on line at the time.  I can get onto the Internet by using Chrome but it feels as if Chrome is in charge of me rather than the other way round.  when I type in an address it just takes me where it wants to go rather than the website I want to to.  I now want to back up my data but left my drive in UK (I am in USA at the moment.) so wondered if I can back all my data (very important data) on to a memory stick so I can wipe my computer and start again.  I have an appointment with a techie at the Apple shop on Saturday but need to back up my data before the appointment, so not sure what to do.
    ALso my IPad is very unstable after using the Daily Mail site, it has always seemed to be fine before but this weekend seems to have created problems for both my MacBook Air and IPad Mini...

    You'd probably be better served to use a conventional external USB:

    Click on the blue Internet Recovery in nbar's post. That is a link to what computers can run Internet Recovery.
    Do a backup,  preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors.  Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.

    When you reboot, use Setup Assistant to restore your data.

  • How can I put OSX 10.7 on a new Macbook Air. Maverick no longer allows "open file in a new window" and I really miss it. At the Apple Store they told me it can't be added to the new OSX 10.10 so I  want to change the OSX on the new Macbook Air and it

    I have been using a 2012 Mac pro to do HD video editing. I bought a new portable Macbook Air only to find that Maverick no longer has "open files in a new window" which I use all the time in the very large folders of video clips and royalty-free music. I asked at the Apple Store how I could get this back on the Macbook Air and they said it couldn't be done so I thought I would re-format the HD and install 10.7 on it and was notified by the Macbook Air I can't put 10.7 on that computer. Apple use to give this as an option but now they have gone more to the attitude of "Do it our way or go to ****!" In anger I went out and bought a Dell Laptop and Pinnacle Studio 17 which I have been learning to use. I have been an Apple/Mac user since 1979 and would still rather do my video editing on a Mac. Is there any way that I can force the Macbook Air to let me load in OSX 10.7 where there is still the option to  "open files in a new window" or is there a way to add this to Maverick? The experts at the Madison, WI Couldn't give me any help on this.

    Choose Preferences from the Finder menu, click on the General tab, and uncheck the box to open folders in a new tab.

    Great tip Stephen!!
    I was so frustated from this issue that I used to use Windows iTunes for mass editing info, adding Lyrics etc and then transfering songs to Mac. This tip has alleviated my pain!!
    Thanks for the tip. This question should be tagged as answered.

    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.

  • I downloaded hundreds of CDs to iTunes on my old computer and synced them to both my iPad and classic ipod.  We purchased a MacBook air and I noticed the previously downloaded CDs were not in my library.  How can I find them?

    I Downloaded hundreds of CDs to iTunes on a previous laptop and synced them with my iPad and classic ipod.  We recently purchased a MacBook Air, and I started downloading more CDs to iTunes.  When I went to sync my iPod, it removed all my old music and only included the music that I had just downloaded.  When I went to my iTunes library, the old music was missing.  The old music is still showing up on my iPad.  How do I get it back into the library, or do I have to download everything again onto the MacBook air?

    You mean on the old computer, the music is missing?
    Or on the new computer the old music that you transferred from old computer, is now missing?
    Did you transfer the iTunes library from the old computer to the new computer?
