Macbook Air Contacts does not retrieve my Yahoo Contacts

I've got my laptop a month ago with OS X Lion, then I upgraded to Mountain Lion... I added my Yahoo account for "Mail, Contacts & Calendar" successfully. Now using my macbook air Mail, I can see/check my Yahoo mails. With Calendar, I can also see my Yahoo calendar. However, with Contacts, I could not see my Yahoo contacts. There is a warning message in the 'Contacts' window that says: "The operation couldn’t be completed. (CoreDAVHTTPStatusErrorDomain error 500.)". Please help as I don't know how to fix this error message.
Thanks.

How do I connect Apple 20" Cinema Display to orignal MacBook Air which does not have a Fire-Wire port. Is this possible? Any advice would be appreciated. I have the Micro-DVI to DVI adapter. Norm

I Wish to connect my 6 year old Apple 20" Cinema Display to an orignal MacBook Air which does not have a Fire-Wire port. Is this possible? Any advice would be appreciated. I have the Micro-DVI to DVI adapter. Norm

The FireWire cable is just for the FireWire ports on the display. The display will run without it.

After hibernation, when trying to login to MacBook Air, it does not accept my password. I have to shut off and then get prompted with the following: Mac OS X wants to use the "login" keychain. I put in the password there and it works. any suggestions?

In my newly purchased MacBook Air, Dropbox does not function properly. It asks for Mac OS Password for my computer which I do not have.

In my newly purchased MacBook Air, Dropbox does not function properly (it shows MS Word, Excell and Power Point docs but not pictures). It asks for Mac OS Password for my computer which I do not have. How should I get this password ?

If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know that account password, the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but you won't be able to unlock the Keychain. If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it. You’ll need to reset your keychain in the preferences of the Keychain Access application.

My macbook air bluetooth does not pair with a bluetooth speakers!

Recently I bought this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00MPT631O?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_de tailpage_o01_s00 speakers it pairs with my Iphone 5 perfectly, but when I try to connected to my macbook air, it does not work for me it shows the following window, which cannot get connected to the speakers, thanks in advance for any help

While it appears that the Mac is discoverable, since it is not seeing the speakers, you may need to check the documentation that came with the speakers to see if they are in discovery/pairing mode, and how to get them into that mode. Then try and pair them.

After updating to Yosemite 10.10.2, macbook air Wifi does not work. What to do?

I upgraded from Maverick to Yosemite in Nov 2014 & my mack book air 2011 model became slow. Yesterday after downloading & updating 10.10.2, Wifi does not work, it prompted Gatway Time out. Anybody can help please? Dr. Mostafa

Moreover I am to add, in the same network, windows PC Wifi works & more interestingly Macbook with Maverick also connects with the same Wifi, I mean to say this is the problem with Yosemite 10.10.2. Before updating on Sunday last, my Wifi was working nicely.

Macbook air 2013 does not see firewire drive to which I do my backups

I have a "My Passport Studio WD" drive 1GB that I have used many times with this very macbook air. Today, it keeps flashing. The drive does not appear in Disc Utility. I tried another firewire drive (OWC), same result. I changed cable, same result. The only thing I cannot change is the apple adapter from lightning to FireWire because I only have one.

Try plugging it in over USB. If you can, try it on another Mac over FW or USB. FYI, if the drive supports USB 3.0, that is about twice as fast as FW. If it only supports USB 2.0 then FW is faster.
If it simply won't work it is not necessarily the disk that is dead. It could be the electronics in the enclosure. If so try purchasing Tunderbolt, FW or USB 3.0 external enclosure and put the disk in that.
FireWire encolsure ~$40 to $70.
Thunderbolt enclosure: ~$100.
USB 3.0 enclosure (same disk speed as Thunderbolt): ~$10 to $20.

My macbook air camera does not work

I have a macbook air 11" mid 2011   running OSX Yosemite 10.10.1
I need to use the facetime camera, but it says no camera is available.
what I have done (6 hours or research and grief later):
After reading a plethora of forums, I have tried:
Migrated from OSX Mountain Lion to Yosemite.. will definitely fix your problem.   no good...
Installed the latest update... yep...
used the disk Utility repair again just in case...   yep...   still no good.
restarted the computer... yep.       no good...
open a terminal and type         sudo killall VDCAssistant
yep that was a waste of time... its not even on my laptop.
the USB camera is not in the System Information USB Tree. and under camera it says no video capture devices were found.
Found a really helpful UTube video which suggested I Kill off a Parrot thingy...   wasnt even in the devices list...
I have read through the plethora of forums on this problem even further... there are literally thousands of them.
The most popular answer which Apple appears to provide is:    and by the way you keep running into this suggestion...
One of these will fix your problem:
(1) If restarting your Mac doesn't fix the problem,                          (NOPE didnt fix it..)
(2) use Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090                      (NOPE no help...   as:
did the use Disk Utility to repair permissions thing..   yep... still no camera...
the USB camera is still not in the System Information USB Tree.
(option 3 applies to me...   cant see the camera in the USB...
no suggestion on how to resolve that ... but there is a (4) so I tried that...
I reset the SMC ...   guess what...   still no camera...
The camera used to work...
...............................................................................     My thought and question of Apple is below ...................................................
I am thinking the port on which the camera communicates is disabled in the new software version, or it is reassigned to something that is in conflict with it. The USB connection is set at the manufacture level to something which is not being detected now.
CAN APPLE PLEASE ADVISE ME WHICH DEFAULT PORT THE CAMERA IS CONNECTED TO AND CONFIRM THAT IT IS NOT DISABLED BY DEFAULT
Please dont tell me its a problem with the camera...   I could probably roll back to the old software, and my system would work just fine...   this has been a total pain in the neck...   and has cost me many hours...
Yes I am going into the Apple store tomorrow... another two hours out of my life... probably to be told its a hardware issue and they need to take it away and charge me money to fix it..     but I will take it there and decline to pay any money.   It is out of warranty and probably not essential to the laptop to use.   It s frustrating that there is no easy fix to this problem despite the plethora of forum articles and posts by thousands of people experiencing the same problem.
There is no way Apple can stick its head in the sand and claim its a hardware issue.
I have tried to look for a built-in USB camera driver for Apple Macbook Air...   good luck with that...   If the old system driver was about, perhaps someone could check the communications ports and work out where this problem actually sits.

There was a final outcome...       Apple determined that the IO card was faulty and they replaced it under warranty..      The camera is working correctly
i cant argue with the results...     The card replacement has reliably fixed the problem.
SO my final recommendation for a solution is
check online to make sure you can get an appointment at your APPLE shop.
Book the appointment so you don't waste 4 hours...
Check that your machine is in warranty.      If not, the repair cost to me was $85 aus...    Still not too bad considering this issue cost me 14 hours of research and a further 8 hours travel time...
BAck up your computer and open the password to protect your regular one. Then...
take it to Apple at the appointed time.     MAKE SURE YOU BACKED UP YOUR MACHINE...
WAit 5 to 10 days based on how busy they are...          If they say your card is faulty, it's hardware and no amount of fiddling about with software is going to fix the problem.        I could have saved 18 + hours..
Replace the IO Card Fixed this issue...       It has not failed since getting the computer back.

How can I get software from a disc onto my macbook air which does not have a disc drive.?

I have macbook air with no disc drive. However, I recently was given some cookbook software as a gift and it is in disc form. Wondering if there is an easy way to get this new software onto my mac. Was hoping I could upload the software to another PC and then burn it to a thumb drive and switch it over that way.Thoughts on if this is doable??
Thanks!

My MacBook Air keeps asking me for my yahoo password; which when correctly entered will not allow me into the account. iPad and iPhone both working on the same password/account.

my MacBook Air keeps asking me for my YAHOO password; which when correctly entered will not allow me into the account. iPad and iPhone both working on the same password.

I've got automatic downloads turned off and I tried signing out and in via the settings and still keeps asking me for an apple id.
It doesn't do it continuously, it'll just pop up randomly ... if the phone is just sitting there it may ask for my apple id and regardless of whether I press cancel or enter my password nothing happens .. it may be another 2mins, 5mins, 15mins but eventually it'll just randomly pop up and ask me again. It does accept my password though because I tried entering an incorrect password to see what happens and it gives me the error saying it's incorrect, so when I enter the correct one in the box disappears and it accepts it as I say, but only for so long before it pops up again.
