MacBook Air burnt...

Okay, this should be a typical night, in that I want to watch a documentary video on my MacBook Air. As usual, I am preparing my external display. The HDMI cable that I have had been using, and that worked great was connected to the TV receiver. Besides that, I have a new, sealed cable which I have not opened, because I did not need it. So I thought I'd use this one. The was the worst decision of my life. I connected one end to the monitor, and one in MiniDisplay Port to HDMI adapter. I thought that when I plug the adapter the laptop image will appear. I was wrong.
When the two connectors met, 4 (yes, four) big sparks appeared. One in the adapter, charger plug, HDMI adapter, and monitor. That besides some deafening noise. I removed everything from the outlet, hoping that something very serious has not happened. But I was not lucky ... Everything smelled burnt. From the charger to the monitor.
I do not understand what happened. The other cable I have had not the slightest problem. Over 2000USD are gone. But maybe Noumax or iStyle (our Apple resellers) will understand and hopefully change the laptop (which of course is under warranty). I'm very afraid of a refuse.
The monitor is a BenQ 22" 1080p. It was used with my laptop and TV receiver with no problem. It's new, i have had it for two months. Now I write on my phone (HTC Desire) in the hope that someone could give someone a tip or two.
Thanks.

I am wondering if there was something in the wiring of the HDMI cable that cause the short circuit. Best thing I can recommend is take the computer and cables into a service provider or call Apple Support.

  • Hi everybody, my Macbook air mid 2012 MD 231 suddenly shut down then i can not turn it on. I heard a sound like a fuse is blown or something like that. Did any system break or burnt? I did not charge at that moment. Plz help

    my Macbook air mid 2012 suddenly turn off after a strange sound (like the sound òf a fuse has blown or something like that) and I also feel a burnt smell too while i am watching a film on the internet and did not charge the laptop at this moment. The sound was from the left of it, and now just a dark screen , even I tried charging it (still has green light at the charge tool). I bought it on 13st April 2013, not often use.
    I love apple and i am so sad that a new product which i seldom use could be break so easily and outstanding. It's so late in my country now but i am too disappoint about the trouble so i am writing with hope of supporting from Apple and the community.
    Please help , thank bro

    You will have to take it to an Apple Store for repair.

  • Sparks when connecting MacBook Air charger to the wall

    Hi everybody. Today when I plugged in the MacBook Air power charger to the wall in my room I saw and heard sparks for the first time and the I noticed that the connecter ends of the charger have burnt a little (I see small black dents) but the charger is working normally. Shall I stop using the charger and buy a new one? I mean does this have any effect on the Macbook?

    then you indicate a grounding issue on a certain socket in your house.
    You mentioned "connecter ends of the charger"
    lets make sure, youre referring to the magsafe end that connects to the MAC, or to the 2 prong wall connector
    which is it?
    post a pic of the "small black dents"
    otherwise use a regulated power strip in the location which has the faulty wall outlet you indicate.

  • MacBook Air 11" Screen melted a hole

    My MacBook Air 11" was sitting on my desk at home in standby with the lid closed. Later in the afternoon I opened the lid and there was a real hole burnt into the middle of the display. The first visit to the genius bar was rather unsuccessful. The lady insisted that the display was burnt with a lighter or candle which is def. not the case. I´ve added 2 pic of the screen. Is´t still working. Anybody have this before?

    It happened at my home. Nobuddy had access to the MacBook. As I noted above: No lighters or candles near the desk. It´s also a mystery to me. It looks like the heat source comes from the inner layer of the display. The back of the display is unaltered.

  • I destroyed my MacBook Air with wine spill.

    I destroyed my MacBook Air with wine spill. Logic bard etc. are burnt. Can you help me with some tips or experiences? Should I sell the remainings or try to repair it?

    Not entirely sure what the quality of the wine has to do with the justification for repairing the machine but I suppose everyone goes about repairing things differently.
    First Question: Do you have renter's or homeowner's insurance that covers damage to personal technology? If so, give them a call to see what (if anything) is covered, the deductible, etc. For example, I have a rider for personal electronics that in the event of loss, damage or theft I'm covered for the replacement cost of my machine and a very small out of pocket coverage.
    Second Question: Did you use a major credit card to purchase the machine? Visa, Mastercard, Discover or American Express? Some of them, based on the type of card offer additional options for replacement or repair coverage. It takes a 5 minutes to call and find out and it may save you some out of pocket money.
    Third Question: How old is the machine? If it's a newer machine it's cheaper to fix it then replace it, if it's an older machine and based on how old it may potentially be a wash (value vs. cost of replacement).
    In the event that you decide to fix it, Apple can fix it (out of warranty) but it'll run several hundred dollars (something like $700 or so USD) but you can't replace a MacBook Air for that price in the form of buying a new one. As AA suggested, selling it for scrap parts is also an option but you're looking at a couple of hundred bucks in your pocket, at best.

  • URGENT! NEED TO BURN IMOVIE TO DISK ON MACBOOK AIR! URGENT!

    Hi,
    I have made an Imovie on my Macbook Air. I need to put it onto a disk so that I can play it in a DVD player but I am unable to do this because I do not have a disk slot in my computer! I have exported the Imovie and I put it onto a USB. I put the USB into my other computer which is not Apple. It opened fine and it could play the movie but with a different program. I burnt the movie onto a disk and put it in the TV. The first time it said loading/reading and then it just said stop without playing or anything! I tried another time but this time I put the movie into another format on the USB, but once again I had no luck! It read the dvd then a message popped us saying " unable to play this disk!". PLEASE HELP SOON! I NEED THIS DONE BY THIS AFTERNOON! HELP!

    Hi
    This is a problem - that's outside iDVD forum and even Apple too.
    You need to find a person with know how on PC/Windows computers.
    I would in iMovie
    • Export - Share to QuickTime - and as .mpeg4 / here select .H264 and a high quality matching the material You used. And in frame rate (frames per second) as the movie project
    • I would import this movie file into JES_Deinterlacer (free from Internet) - to convert frame rate to what You need e.g. USA = NTSC = 29.97 frames per second ot EU = PAL = 25 fps
    (as this does it so much better than to let iMovie or iDVD do this conversion (result would then be Very Bad))
    •  then move the file on a DOS / FAT32 formatted USB-memory ( LIMIT is 4Gb - if the file is 4Gb or larger - it has to be cut up in smaller files first ! - Else it wouldn't work)
    • Move it to a Window / PC computer - and from here find a friend that know
    - What DVD authoring program You need to use
    - How You do this
    Why ?
    DVDs are in at least two flavors
    - Data-DVD's - as can be made by storing data / files onto a DVD (icon) on Desktop/Finder on a Mac
    (it can store movies - BUT NO DVD-player can playback it)
    - Video-DVD's - as commercial movie-DVDs - compressed and structured in the right way - and can be played on any standard DVD-player
    to get this to work even better I would do
    • Use Verbatim DVDs - MeMorex, NoName etc. cheap brands
    - usually do not work - to little organic dye in them
    • DVD-R - plays on more and even older DVD-players
    (DVD+R on newer ones - DVD+/-RW I NEVER USE as they rarely works)
    • SL-DVDs - usually works better
    • IMPORTANT ! - I always set down burn speed to x2 max x4
    as this reduces the amount of BURN ERRORS !
    • I run a Cleaning DVD (no liquid but the brush ones) from time to time.
    Yours Bengt W

  • My Macbook air is "burning" power adapters

    I've owned my 13" macbook air for a couple years now and never really had an issue. Until a few months ago, I noticed my computer right where it gets plugged in was getting extremely hot, to the point where you could actually burn yourself on it. When you look at the power cable and the actualy plug in the side of the computer it was actually charred brown and black.
    I've since bought a new power adapter and it lasted a little while until the computer burnt it as well and it no longer worked. At this point i've got a new power adapater and it hasn't charred anything, but the only way to charge is to now have a book under the plug to force it upwards and then it will actually charge. It basically makes the laptop immobile and it has turned into a desktop computer at this point. Very frustrating. Unfortunately myapple care ran out so i'm left a bit stranded. I believe, now, i'm either looking to replace the whole power plug in the side of the computer or just live with a overly expensive/relatively slow desktop computer.
    Any tips or suggestions or recommendd solutions would be a massive help!
    Thanks!!

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First, reset the SMC > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964 If this problem is related to software, this should fix this problem.
    If it doesn't work and you can start your computer, open System Information or System Profiler (it's in /Applications/Utilities), choose Power in the sidebar, and copy here "Charge Information" and "Health Information".
    If you can't start the MacBoook, the only thing you can do is to take your computer to an Apple Store or reseller

  • I am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier

    i am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier photo please help me to recover my photos

    Well I'll guess you're using iPhoto 11:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  
    Regards

  • Can I return my macbook air that I brought during the holidays (Thanksgiving)

    I was gifted a Macbook air during the thanksgiving season, and since I am a computer science developer ( a student to be precise), I want to return my Mac and opt in for a Windows machine ( so that I can get enough software support if needed, there are several people around me with a pc). I was wondering, how can I return my laptop ? What are the terms and conditions ?
    Thank you in advance.

    I would think you cannot return a product after the return date has passed.
    Call the Apple Store and ask them.

  • How do I use my Macbook Air with a display?

    I wish to use the display with the Macbook Air. The screen on the MBA is too small for home use so I want to use the display instead. How do I do this? It's awkward to type on the MBA keyboard and then look at the display next to the MBA.
    However I want to keep the MBA as my main computer because I like to use the MBA outside my home a lot. So that is why I do not buy an iMac.
    I also do not want to go to the trouble of syncing a Macbook Air and an iMac.
    I figured if I can use the hard drive on the MBA and then use the cinema display to show everything like my LCD screen that would be great.
    How can I get around the problem of awkward placement on my desk?
    Can I buy a keyboard and will that prevent the need to type using the MBA's keyboard?
    I plan on replacing my old MBA with the new MBA that has two USB ports.
    Will the separate keyboard and display fit into a USB hub? I need to keep one hub free on the MBAir for the USB ethernet.
    Is it just a matter of plugging the cinema display and keyboard into the MBA and then just typing away, using the MBA's hard drive?
    I do not know how this will work.
    Thanks for any explanation.

    There are two USB ports on the display. Use one for ethernet and one for the keyboard (a USB mouse can plug into the keyboard).
    Is it just a matter of plugging the cinema display and keyboard into the MBA and then just typing away, using the MBA's hard drive?
    Yes. Or you can use a wireless keyboard and mouse.

  • Movies from iMac 27 do not show up on macbook air

    I have 24 home-made movie that show up on my main computer, iMac 27, two iPads and and iPhone5. However, I am baffled how to get the same movies to show up on my Macbook Air. I've tried Sharing the Library, turning Sharing off and on on both compueters, and many other obvious possibilities. This is baffling me. Has anyone else had the same situation and a solution to go with it?
    Thank you,
    Steve Roesler

    Hello, Steve. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I would need a little more information on this issue to provide a better answer.  Are these movies in your iTunes library?  If not see the steps in the first article below.  Some imported movies do show as Home Videos when imported.  If these are in your iTunes library, see the troubleshooting steps in the second article below.

  • Mid 2013 macbook air keyboard/trackpad stop responding

    I have a mid-2013 13" Macbook Air - 512GB SSD, 8GB RAM - 1.7Ghz i7
    I spend a good deal of time working at my home, where I have two external monitors (one via USB, one via the thunderbolt port) and a bluetooth wireless mouse and keyboard.  Things are great.
    I also go on the road, and when I do, I simply unplug my monitors, close the lid, and go.
    Lately, I've had some very odd behavior happen which acts a lot like what is described in the latest 13" Macbook Pro Retina EFI fix:  http://www.macrumors.com/2013/11/07/apple-releases-fix-for-13-inch-retina-macboo k-pro-keyboardtrackpad-issues/
    Here's what happens....when I'm traveling and away from my bluetooth keyboard/mouse, I will open up my MBA and the trackpad and internal keyboard are unresponsive.  I can press the power button and get it to turn off...power it back on and am able to use the keyboard to control various boot options (diagnostics, single-user, safe-mode, recovery model, etc).  Booting up full, however, the issue will still exist.  Looking at the console log, when this is happening, there are a ton (about 4000 every minute) of the following :
    11/1/13 7:45:26.000 PM kernel[0]: Error: AppleHSSPIController::doSPITransfer CRC from device was invalid
    11/1/13 7:45:26.000 PM kernel[0]: Error: AppleHSSPIController::InterruptOccurred Failed to transfer interrupt data with Err (0xe00002eb)
    Eventually, something happens and things start to work -- I will generally see the following in the console log when it starts working:
    11/1/13 7:45:27.000 PM kernel[0]: Apple Internal Keyboard / Trackpad::start Start Succeeded
    If I let the machine sit at the unlock screen, eventually a dialog comes up and says "unable to find external bluetooth keyboard/mouse..."  It says it will continue to search and will pair with one eventually....it's the same message I would get from my mac mini if it couldn't find the bluetooth keyboard (and has no internal/hardwired keyboard).
    When it is happening, I can use "cmd-r" to boot into recovery mode and recovery mode will complain about not having a mouse/trackpad - yet the keyboard seems to work to control what happens at boot time.
    I called Apple and got sent to the apple store with a "it sounds like a faulty logic board or a connection that needs soldering".  The Apple Store "genius" didn't quite think that was the case and has instead suggested I re-install the operating system.  I'm non-plussed by both suggestions. This has happened both before and after Mavericks... 
    On one of my latest trips, I had a case where I took my laptop out on the plane to try to use it...only to have this issue occur.  I landed, got to the hotel, tried again and everything worked fine.  Went to dinner - leaving my laptop on the desk plugged in - only to come back to have the keyboard unresponsive....  I've now resorted to traveling with my bluetooth keyboard and mouse "just in case".
    Any ideas/thoughts?

    I will open up my MBA and the trackpad and internal keyboard are unresponsive.
    Do four things to test for fault on this,
    reset SMC ,
    reset NVRAM,
    uncheck "put hard disks to sleep"
    and UNPAIR both your bluetooth mouse and keyboard from this Mac that you are using with it currently.
    yes, the notion that your logic board is at fault is extremely unlikely, additionally (though far more likely) that your Mavericks OS is corrupt.
    RESET SMC
    Shut down the computer.
    Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer. 
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
    RESET NVRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    Lastly, go into SYS PREFERENCES > ENERGY > uncheck "Put hard disks to sleep when possible" in both tabs.
    Let your Mac go into sleep or close the lid for a few mins. and reopen and verify that your trackpad and mouse are fine.  They should be after this,.........
    If not contact Apple for full in shop diagnostic, theyll run a hardware test (unlikely causation) and reinstall the OS, then retest and LASTLY replace the logic board (very unlikely).

  • Mid 2011 Macbook Air Painfully slow.

    Mid 2011 Macbook Air Painfully slow.
    Hey everyone.  I am writing about my 13 inch Mid 2011 Macbook Air. 
    Recently it has been extremely slow and on occasion has not started up.
    I have reset the PRAM and SMC already, yet it is still very slow.  I have a couple theories about what might have caused it, are they plausible?
    Theory 1:  It’s a software problem. I tried to upgrade to 10.8.2 but halfway through the upgrade the computer restarted and somehow I was still on 10.8.1.  For fear of a big issue happening I didn’t try to upgrade again. Perhaps it is a flaw in Apple’s software update? 
    The important thing to note about this update is that I tried to install 10.8.2 around a month or two weeks BEFORE I started having problems.  So if these issues were due to 10.8.2’s failed update then it certainly was a delayed reaction. 
    I would of course like to update to 10.8.2 BUT as my computer is acting EXTREMELY slow and having trouble turning on occasionally I am worried the software update will completely brick the machine.  Is that possible?  Should I actually finish through with the software update?
    Theory 2:  It was an electricity problem. 
    The computer died when I was sitting at a café plugged into their wall sockets.  A few days later when I came back to the same spot with my old macbook which is now being used in lieu of the Air it suddenly turned black for a little while. Sensing it might be an electricity surge or something with their system I unplugged the cable.  I am not sure if that was paranoia though. 
    Can an electricity surge or a bad outlet fry a computer?  Can it fry the ram so the computer is extremely slow? Does that theory hold any water? 
    Thanks for your help diagnosing this problem.
    All the best. 

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Copy or drag — do not type — the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' 
    Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.) You can omit the final line ending in “$”. 
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}' 
    This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' 
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • Mid-2013 Macbook Air drains battery at hibernate

    I recently got a new Macbook Air:
    MBA 13-inch, Mid 2013
    Processor  1.7 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory  8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 5000 1024 MB
    Software  OS X 10.8.4 (12E3067)
    The issue I'm running into is essentially that I close the lid (unplugged from power and anything else) and overnight the entire battery drains.  When looking into the system log, I noticed that the sleep seems to run OK but it's when it tries to hibernate that the issue comes up.  It looks to me like it tries to hibernate and runs into an error, tries again, run into an erro, tries again, etc.

    This all seems to loop until the battery drains completely.  Any Thoughts?

    I have the exact same problem. I just installed Mavericks three days ago and I'm having battery drain when the lid is closed.
    Does anybody have a solution for this problem ?
    Here are the logs :
