  • MacBook Air does not See a Plantronics Voyager Pro bluetooth headset

    My MacBook Air does not "see" my Plantronics Voyager Pro + bluetooth headset as a discoverable bluetooth asset.  I have read on Apple and Plantronics forums that these two devices should be compatible, but so far no luck.  Anybody have any experience with this situation?

    Turns out the Voyager Pro Bluetooth headset failed...exchanging it for a new one and should be GTG.  Thanks.

  • HT4628 My MacBook Air does not see my wireless network

    My iPhone and iPad Mini see the network and connect with no problem. However the MacBook Air doesn't see the network. I tried adding it manually and it still does not recognize the network. Any ideas what I can do to resolve this issue?

  • IPhoto on my macbook air does not see my ipod nano 2nd generation. Is there a way to get the photos from this device into my photo stream without wiping them, which will happen if I sync with iTunes

    I have photos on an old 2nd generation ipod nano, that have since been wiped from any other source.
    I now have a shared photostream through icloud between all my other apple deivces (iphone, ipod, ipad, macbook air, apple tv), but I cant find a way to get the ipod nano photos onto the stream. The original photo files were detroyed with an old computer, that also had the itunes library to which the nano was linked.
    The photos are the only items I want from the nano. Can anyone help?

    You need to copy the photos off of the Nano and onto your MacBook Air first.
    The photos you synced to your iPod through iTunes are no longer in their full resolution, but instead are scaled down thumbnails of those photos.  So if you do manage to get them off your iPod, they will be quite small in size compared to the original ones you lost.
    In order to get them off of your iPod, you'll need the help of some sort of 3rd party software. Here is one option.

  • My Macbook Air does not pick up wifi from Airport but iMac, iPad and iPhone do. Help please.

    My Macbook Air does not pick up wifi from Airport but iMac, iPad and iPhone do. Help please.

    Are you testing in the same room as the TC?
    Power cycle the TC.. does it show up now?
    Has it ever showed up .. ie is this a problem that just started from an existing setup, or has never worked?
    Is the TC new? If old how old?
    If you continue to have issues.. setup the TC from iMac and preferably using ethernet.
    Change the wireless names to SMB compatible ones, short no spaces, pure alphanumeric.
    Use WPA2 Personal security only.
    Then set the wireless channels manually.. try 11, 6, 1 for 2.4ghz and try 36 or 40 at 5ghz.
    Tell us how that goes.

    MacBook Air does not have an optical drive.  There is a program I wish to install on my Air which is an astronomy application called Megastar V.  Installation requires the use of a CD.  Is there a way to use the optical drive on my PC (toshiba laptop using Windows 7) to install this program onto my Air?
    With gratitude,

    Thank you for explaining to me how to do this.  I will try it tomorrow and let all of you know how it goes.

  • How can I convert my Open Source document files into Word document files? I cannot download Pages since my Macbook Air does not have the most recent software.

    How can I convert my Open Source document files into Word document files? I cannot download Pages since my Macbook Air does not have the most recent software. I downloaded open office to my mac to try and save money. It worked well for a while. Now I get this pop-up message that asks me to "Reopen" and when I select the option, nothing happens. I cannot save my documents anymore and I cannot convert them to word. Help!

    You have 17 options to save as in Open Office, one of which is .doc  files,  yes it needs to be saved manually.
    You may be able to default to DOC, but have not tried same.
    Since Open Office is 99% same as Word, I use it, or Word, either one.  Open Office is a bit less buggy than Word 11'

  • Adobe Lightroom on MacBook Pro does not see my iphoto library

    Adobe Lightroom on MacBook Pro does not see my "iphoto library"

    Hello.
    The problem is that the iPhoto library is inside of iPhoto. Lightroom won't let you select it because it's basically a shortcut to iPhoto. Try exporting the images you need or all of them, depending on what you need.

    After upgrade to Yosemite my MacBook Air does not switch automaticly from wifi to ethernet. How to sloven problem?

    Have you tried changing the order in Network Preferences pane?
    Open System Preferences/Networks/Click the gear symbol under the service list. Select set service order then drag. If your wifi is above the ethernet move the ethernet to the top. Click ok. Click apply (bottom left) and test.
    Hope this helps

    My MacBook Air does not switch on at all. I press the "switch on" button but nothing happens. The battery is fully charged and the laptop is absolutely new (2 month of rare use). Have no idea what's wrong with it.
    Thanks in advance.
