MacBook Air can see ancient Ricoh printer, printer can't see me. There is a microsoft patch, is there an Apple patch?

Is there a patch so my Air can be seen by an ancient Ricoh copier? A microsoft one exists.

call them, tell them you NEED a new battery installed, and they need to tell you when they can do it. That is their job to help you! Give pushback if necessary.

I bought an MacBook Air 13 from Dubai last month. However I see smudge lines on the screen of the laptop which are prominent if the screen is black. Does the macbook air have international warranty ? Since I am in India right now. Can I get it fixed here

I don't know what service options are available in India but if this helps I do know that once you purchase your Apple product the warranty is valid anywhere in the world.

I don't know how large the SSD (solid state hard drive) is, or how big your iPhone 5 is, but with some iPhones having 64GB and some Airs having as little as 64GB and some having as much as 512GB it's not hard to see how storing the contents of your iPhone 5 on your Macbook Air could run you out of space.
Go to the Macbook Air and bring up a finder window and pull the Go menu down and go to the Computer. Right click on the Macintosh HD and select get info. See if there is any available space on the MacBook Air. If not you are out of SSD space (you're storing more on your Macbook Air than it has storage for). I'm not sure if iTunes can store its library on an external hard drive or quite how you would make that happen. But even if you managed that, when the hard drive was disconnected, you would lose access to your library. Using a smart media card might be possible (I don't know) but it would probably be irritatingly slow. If you have a small Air and a big iPhone you might just have to find a different computer to sync to. Just remember a 64GB iPhone is a big chunk of SSD for a Macbook Air. I did it with my previous and my current Air but even my previous one had 256GB and I really just fit.

I Just purchased a used MacBook Air but it has no OS, how can I re-load the OS?

I Just purchased a used MacBook Air but it has no OS, how can I re-load the OS?

It depends on which operating system was on it when it was released. Older MBAs need disks or a special thumb drive to boot for OS recovery.
Let’s assume it is new enough that it has a recovery partition built in. You can try this and see if it works and if it doesn’t work then it is old enough to need he aforementioned recovery media.
It is simple. First you format the system disk and then you install OS X.
You will need to be in an area with a good wireless Internet signal.
Boot in Recovery Mode:
Power it on and when you hear the bong hold down the Command and R keys simultaneously.
Format the system disk:
> Disk Utility
> Select your system drive.
> Partition
> Partition Layout: 1 Partiton
> Options...
> GUID Partition Table
> OK
> Name: Macintosh HD
> Format: Mac OS Extended (journaled)
> Apply
> Disk Utility > Quit Disk Utility
Install OS X:
> Click on Install OS X and follow the instructions.

Okay, I did my best searching and I couldn't find anything that matched all your descriptors. I did do a search on both decoder numbers. SB0256 returned very little results, but with SB0466, I was able to find this ebay listing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...6_fvi%3D&_rdc=
This card isn't a Champion like you suggested. And with my complete lack of knowledge, I don't know what I/O dri've bay means. But since it is PCI and the decoder matches the number you gave me, this card should be adequete, right?
Whether it works or not, my search indicated it might be very hard for me to find that card (or any PCI card for that matter). Everything I saw was out of stock. I know this is a forum for Creative, but are there any other manufacturers that will allow me to accomplish my goal, either with current cards, or discontinued cards? Thanks again
Oh, and I will vote on that thread. I probably won't wait for them to release the decoder since I need it now, but I still believe Creative should be giving the customer what they want

Just bought a new macbook air. speakers show that they work but can't hear Skype or youtube. Can you help?

Hi , just bought a new macbook air. speakers show that they work but can't hear Skype or youtube. Can you help?

Have you checked that they are selected in System Preferences>Sound>Output tab?
If that doesn't help, and although I've never had to use it myself, I've read on here occasionally that launching Audio MIDI Setup in the Utilities folder and messing with the settings in there can sometimes sort out audio problems.

How do I can I install MS Office 2008 on a MacBook Air w/ a valid product key? Can I download files somewhere?

How do I can I install MS Office 2008 on a MacBook Air w/ a valid product key? Can I download files somewhere?
Here's the scenario....
I've got a brand new gift MacBook Air 11" and I want to install Microsoft Office 2008 since I have a valid key license that's given by my nephew. Do I have any other options here? Can I download all the necessary files from somewhere officially and just enter the Product Key to install what I need? Are there other possible options?
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thank you very much.

You can use a remote disc to download Office as shown here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5287
But please note several cautions:
1. The product key is intended for one machine only. You would have to be the sole user.
2. Office 2008 is now very close to being obsolete. Office 2011 has been out for years, and Office 365 is available for your Mac as well.

A MacBook Air was reported stolen
From a room at my hotel that belong to a guest. I request a apple Id and password from the guest in order to track it though iCloud, when I login into the account the MacBook was not their, however I saw other device. A few days has past then the MacBook appear. How does that happened, please explain?

For a stolen Macbook to appear in iCloud - the person who stole it must turn it on.
You can't track something that's turned off.

Please explain me, how to remove an usb stick or memory chip? With experiences only in pc:s, I do not find on my first apple e.g. MacBook Air a solution. Until now I have succeeded to destroy one chip full of photos and - there's no life more in the port.

Please explain me, how to remove an usb stick or memory chip? With experiences only in pc:s, I do not find on my first apple e.g. MacBook Air a solution. Until now I have succeeded to destroy one chip full of photos and - there's no life more in the port...
Someone told me just to remove the chip in clicking it to the trash can and voilá - it would be done. But as I did so, on the screen appeared a text which let me know, that that way had been the wrong one...
I should have clicked Finder plus something.... which I do not now remember but which was then not found behind the Finder.
So please would someone be so kind and tell me, where I can find explanations for the most simple functions. The manual I got does not include a clue.
Thank you!

First make sure that no application is using or has open any files on the disk. Then:
Click and drag the disk icon on the desktop to the trash. Wait for the system to recognize the action, and the icon should disappear from the desktop. It is then safe to remove the device.
Alternatively, you can secondary click on the disk icon, and then primary click "Eject (name of disk)". Wait for the icon to disappear off the desktop, and then it is safe to remove the drive.
Here is a detailed help document on the subject.

Macbook Air will not find network wireless printer, ipad PC print ok

Deskjet 3055a printer on wireless connection to Virgin Superhub.
ipad and a PC print ok.
I cannot add MacBook Air (in same room) to the Network.
Please help.

Hi Dagnabit47,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like there is an issue adding a wireless printer on your MacBook Air. The article linked below will walk you through the process of adding the printer and ensure the MacBook Air setup correctly.
OS X Mavericks: Set up a printer
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14143
Add a Wi-Fi printer
Follow the instructions that came with the printer to connect it to your Wi-Fi network and turn it on. Use the instructions to unpack the printer, install ink or toner, and add paper. For more information, see this article:
Apple Support article: Connecting a Wi-Fi printer to your Wi-Fi network
Choose Apple menu > Software Update to make sure OS X has the latest information about printer software it can download from Apple. If Software Update doesn’t list an update for your printer, you have the latest software.
Open a document to print, then choose File > Print.
Open the Printer pop-up menu and choose your printer in the Nearby Printers section of the menu. If you don’t see your printer, choose Add Printer from the Printer pop-up menu.
A dialog appears listing printers on your local network. It may take a minute or two for your printer to appear.
If you’re asked for an administrator name and password
Select your printer when it appears in the list, and then click Add. OS X automatically uses AirPrint if your printer supports it, or it selects printer software (also called a printer driver) and downloads it from Apple if necessary.
I hope this helps.

MacBook Air How do you configure a printer?

We have used iPrint on our old fully patched (including iprntnw65sp8f.zip) server for years. Win2k/XP/7 clients, both secured and unsecured printing with only 2 printers. I have used IE to upload printer drivers for Windows clients, but cannot for the life of me work out how you go about setting up a printer for a MacBook Air (with latest OS X version), I've never even used a Mac before yesterday.
I have managed to get the iPrint client installed (v5.76) but there are no drivers installed on the server so I can't install any printers.
I can't log in to iManager from the MAC as the browser (chrome) isn't supported so I can't upload the drivers (I have managed to get the drivers installed manually on the Mac from the internet).
I have turned off Sandboxing in CUPS after reading in another thread about it causing issues in the latest OSX version.
I've tried manually adding a printer (address: our IP address, protocol: Internet Printing Protocol - IPP, Queue: /ipp/Ricoh) which seems to talk to the server for something as it fills in the Location field but printing just hangs.
I only have one Mac, all I need to do is install iPrint (think this is done) point it to an existing printer and link it to an already installed local driver, can anyone guide me through it? Mac specifics in the docs all I could find was installing the iprint client, nothing about setting up printers. I've even tried uploading a ppd to the server using iprntcmd -u but that fails as well.
Any help would be gratefully received.

How much HD space should I partition for Windows vs.
Mac? I want to only run Office apps in Windows and
everything else (e-mail, internet, file management)
from the Mac.
I would say 10GB minimum.
Should I partition the Windows HD as FAT32 or NTFS?
Either Windows XP can be installed on wither a FAT32 or an NTFS partition.
However FAT32 has the advantage that the Mac will be able to read/write to the partition.
With NTFS the Mac will only be able to read the partition.
Note that when booted into Windows it won't be able to read or write the Mac partition unless it has installed MacDrive or similar.
Can I open an Office app from an e-mail attachment
from the Mac side without having Office Mac (i.e. do
I need two versions of Office -- Office Mac and
Windows Office)?
You would need to boot into Windows to open certain Office files using Office for Windows or use the methods already mentioned.
Two versions of Office might be an option.
Another thing you may want to consider rather than use Boot Camp is to use Parallels

MacBook Air no longer finds my canon printer by WLAN

I have MacBook Air loaded with OS-X Yosemite software. Up until yesterday I was happily printing over wireless LAN in the house to my Canon MG6350 printer. Then it stopped. The print dialogue says Printer is Offline but I can see it is online as it always used to be. I have tried resetting printer, deleting and reloading print drivers, resetting the WLAN device, reconnecting the printer to the wireless LAN and reconnecting the MacBook to the wireless LAN. Nothing will resolve the problem.

Hello there, AdrianGalilee.
Great job so far with troubleshooting your issue with printing to your Canon printer. The following Knowledge Base article offers up some additional steps for troubleshooting print issues:
Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X - Apple Support
USB printers and Bonjour-enabled network printers
Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
Learn more
Note: If your printer is wireless-capable, you should first add the printer to your network. Use the printer's control panel, or temporarily connect the printer to your Mac via USB. For more details, see this article.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.
