Macbook air doesn't connect to Sharp Notevision PG-B10S projector
macbook air doesn't connect to Sharp Notevision PG-B10S projector with OS X, same as upgraded to Yosemite
Hi There,
Whenever I hook up a projector that doesn't work with my MacBook (when it shows just a blank, black screen), the first thing I try is going to System Preferences > Displays and setting the resolution of my desktop to 800x600.
Nine times out of ten, the projector starts right up and works perfectly.

Hi netaanya,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
Your iPhone 4s does work with Continuity, but only phone calls. Please refer to the attached article for more information.
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
Handoff is supported by the following iOS devices and requires iOS 8. Instant Hotspot requires one of these iPhone or iPad devices with cellular connectivity and iOS 8.1. Instant Hotspot also requires Personal Hotspot service through your carrier.
Phone 5 or later
iPhone 4s (sharing iPhone calls only)
iPad (4th generation), iPad Air, iPad Air 2
iPad mini, iPad mini with Retina display, iPad mini 3

Macbook Air Doesn't Connect To Wifi Upon Waking
Since installing Yosemite, whenever I wake my Macbook Air from sleep, it doesn't connect to Wifi. In order to get it to work, I have to open up Network Preferences/Assist me/Diagnostics and go through that process (then it works). Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Hey there alhs77st,
If you are still having this issue where your computer is not connecting to your Wi-Fi network when you wake it from sleep, I would use the following article to help resolve that. This section in particular:
Wi-Fi: How to troubleshoot Wi-Fi connectivity
Symptom: After restarting or waking from sleep, my computer might not connect to the Internet
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,

MacBook Air won't connect with TimeCapsule
I recently bought the new Time Capsule and for a while it was happily backing up both my and my wife's MacBook Airs. Then it stopped backing up my wife's computer. On investigation I find my wife's MacBook Air won't connect to the Time Capsule. When I try to select the Time Capsule as the back-up disk an error message appears: "There was a problem connecting to the server "John's AirPort Time Capsule"". I can see the Time Capsule in Finder on my wife's computer but when I click on "Connect As" I get the same error message. On my computer the Time Capsule appears in Finder as Connected, but disconnecting it doesn't make any difference to my wife's computer.
Any help gratefully received.
JFirst, restart the Time Capsule by disconnecting the power adapter and reconnecting it. If other devices on the network can see it, you can skip this step.
From the menu bar, select
▹ System Preferences ▹ Network
Click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the window and authenticate to unlock the settings, if necessary. Click the Advanced button, then select the TCP/IP tab in the sheet that drops down. Click Renew DHCP lease.
Try again to back up.
If you still can't, open the Time Machine preference pane and delete the TC from the list of backup destinations. You may have to unlock the settings by clicking the lock icon in order to do this. Then add it back. -
My macbook air doesn't have phone under messages - not syncing
my new macbook air doesn't seem to be syncing messages like my mini, ipad and macbook pro do. I noticed under the Preferences, it has my two .me and .icloud email accounts, but doesn't have the phone number in there or any way to add it.
on another note, it also won't let me connect by bluetooth to my iphone 5 (running IOS7 beta) to use my ATT hotspot - when the other's do...
it also wouldn't allow remote disk installation of my adobe products (when mini worked just fine over remote).
Not sure if they are all related, but strange problems I'm having...HI,
Are you talking about Messages > Preferences > Accounts ?
You can add @me.com and @icloud.com IDS as valid AIM Screen Names.
One can be used as the iMessages account.
On the iPhone > Settings > Messages remove the Apple ID.
Set Messages to Off.
Wait a few minutes and then turn Messages back on again
Add the Apple ID.
Restart the Mac version of Messages.
You should now get one or two pop ups saying the iPhone is using the Apple ID and the iPhone Number
Accepting these adds the iPhone Number to the Receive At list of "Aliases" and the Send From (Start New Conversations from) drop down.

MacBook Air doesn't see wifi if booted in a room where otherwise it has access
If I start my MacBook Air in a room close to the router and then I bring it into another room, the wifi connection remains full bar. However if I restart it in that other room, it won't find my router again; if I display the list of routers found in the area, it won't display mine and so will not be able to connect.
If it would loose connection walking into that other room, I would think this is a range issue, but I believe it's more like a combination of range and some op system or wifi card... whatever issue, not sure.
Also I thought it was due to the recent Mountain Lion installation, but after reinstalling Lion, the issue still remains.
I brought it to the official Apple service and they could not find anything. They guessed it must be an interference issue with the router (doubt it, it's on channel 12, not 6 or 11) or that the router doesn't allow more connections (no such settings, plus time to time it does connect while there are no less computers on the network).
The internal network consists of a router with DD-WRT firmware, a Dell Laptop, an iMac and 2 iPhones, all connect perfectly.
If you need any more detail, please let me know and thank you for your help in advance!I was looking for an explanation of this, but apparently the MacBook Air doesn't really communicate well with a router on channel 12. As soon as I switched to channel 10 (11 was way too crowded) my problems were gone.
Apparently there might be a problem with the MacBook Air's AirPort Country Code, but I could not figure out how to check it on mine. If you are curious and want to use channel 12 or 13, check out this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3656144
Hope this helps. -
My new Macbook air won't connect to my Vizio HDTV.
My new Macbook Air won't connect to my Vizio VO32LF HDTV. I bought a mini-displayport to HDMI cable to connect the two. When I connect the cable, and switch to the appropriate HDMI input on the TV, my Macbook Air screen will flash blue for a second, and then return to normal. The TV reports it's unable to find a signal. I use the HDTV as my primary monitor, so I'd really appreciate some help on getting the two to place nicely together!
Cp,
Thanks for the reply. However, it appears that the issue is not with the hotspot, but with the network settings in the MacBook Air as every other device I have (including non-Apple devices) will connect to the iPhone hotspot. Another symptom is that my MacBook Air can find my iMac (and other network devices) on my wireless network, but the iMac can't find the MacBook Air.

My macbook air will not connect to the internet due to a self assigned IP address. I have tried trawling the support forums for hours, but either I can't understand the suggestions, or they don't work. Please explain to me in simplest terms how I can fix this. Many thanks!
The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies. -
I would like to be able to show my iPad3 screen through the Macbook Air that is connected to a projector. I attended an Apple Training presentation and the presenter was using this set up-how do I get it set up correctly? I also recently purchase Apple TV because the presenter said that she was using this device with the Air and the iPad.
If you are trying to connect the iPad to the Macbook, then try this app: http://www.reflectionapp.com/ The iPad also supports connecting straight to the Apple TV, so you could try it that way too.
Hope this helps! -
MacBook Air will not connect to a specific network
Hi,
I recently moved into a new place and the landlord has a wireless connection in place. My Macbook Pro , iPad and iPhone 5s all connect to the network without a problem (it requires a password and we were able to connect just fine). However, my mom's MacBook Air is not connecting at all. It recognizes the network and even establishes a connection to it, however, I only see an exclamation point on the airport icon on the top right once the connection is established and we cannot browse any websites.
Does anyone have any potential solution to this? I'm not able to drive to the Apple Store right now so I was hoping something could be done on my end prior to going to the genius bar.

I did everything the article suggests. And for my macbook pro it works perfectly. But all the other devices (iphone 5, 4, Macbook Air) can't connect to the network. Anybody any idea's?
Try resetting your modem. Power it down. Wait a moment, then power it up again. While it resets, do not change what is connected to it.
In another, though unrelated article, Apple recommends the following:
If you have configured your Wi-Fi base stations in the past, it may be helpful to do a factory default reset of each Wi-Fi base station that will be part of the wireless extended network before you begin.
This step really ought not be considered optional for the configuration you propose. If the problem persists after resetting your modem, reset everything else too. -

How to fix the constant noise in the left corner of the Macbook Air which is connected not with a fan?
Unfortunately if there are various colours across the screen then you have broken the LCD Screen and it will need replacing. If the colours change when you press the area lightly then this is another symptom that you've broken the screen.
Sorry to give the bad news! -
IMessage on my macbook air will not connect.
iMessage on my macbook air will not connect. It says "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." I have gone through all the support instructions and a lot of these discussion chats. I have sign out of it and my phone and resigned in. I have checked that everything is verified and connected. My ios is up to date on both my computer and phone. It worked fine until about a week ago and suddenly it stopped
Thank you for your assistance!Hi,
In Hard Drive/Library/Fonts do you have the AppleGothic.ttf Font.
The iMessages account uses this to "register".
If the computer has been Off then the App effectively "registers" the Apple ID again.
It cannot do this is the Font is "missing".
The thread I saw that highlighted this as an issues said the font could be downloaded from Apple but not the "how" of that.

I have a macbook air and I connect it to an external HDD via thunderbolt and nothing happens....
If a PRAM reset fails to help, an appointment at the Apple store genius bar would be the next option.
