Mavericks on mid 2009 MacBook Air ?
Hello everyone,
I have a mid 2009 MacBook Air (2MB Ram, 128 GB HD), running Snow Leopard. I am wondering if I should upgrade to Mavericks, or if I should just stay put with SL. Has anyone with the same or a similar computer upgraded, and if so, can you tell me about your experience?
Thanks!
Astute question.
I upgraded my girlfriend’s MacBook from Mountain Lion to Mavericks and it slowed down. It had 2 GB of RAM. I then upgraded her RAM to 8 GB and it cut the boot time by a factor of three. So the memory size matters. Unfortunatly you cannot upgrade the RAM in a MBA.
I would upgrade the operating system only when you find you need to. Each new OS version tends to demand more memory. When there are new applications that demand a new OS that may be a time to upgrade. If that time should come you need not upgrade all the way to Maveicks.

Mid 2009 MacBook Air - Most navigation freezes after reboot, fixed after hibernate
On my Mid 2009 MacBook Air, at some point after upgrading to 10.8.2 (not sure if it is directly related), a strange behavior started:
Boots up normally, but then most navigation is frozen.
Mouse cursor moves fine, but can't "click" anything.
Tab and Return keys work, which I can use w/ power button to select restart or shutdown.
Other keys work, somehow got to spotlight window one time and was able to type search term and hit Return
Dash menu won't slide up when I move cursor to bottom, as it normally does
Every once in awhile everything works fine after a restart, maybe 1 out of 25 times
Problem exists even in Safe Boot
Temporary workaround: I have noticed the problem is magically fixed after a hibernate, until the next shutdown. So after restart I close my MacBook to force a hibernate, reopen once I see the white light flashing, and then everthing is fine. So far this workaround consistently works. I rarely shut down by MacBook under normal conditions so I'm certainly not dead in the water, but I would like to get this thing figured out if possible.
Other data, and what I've tried so far:
Searched to find others that might have had this problem and already determined a fix, didn't find any
Logged in as different user (Guest), problem still existed
Nuked all the apps that were automatically loading at startup, didn't help
Tried Safe Boot, problem sitll existed
Used Disk Utility to Verify Disk, no problems found
Reloaded 10.8.2, didn't help
Loaded 10.8.2 supplemental update, didn't help
No new apps loaded within last few months
Not running AV software
Unfortunately I don't have Time Capsule set up
I have about 300 lines from my System Log that captures a Restart after which the problem existed, immediately followed by a Hibernate after which the problem was fixed. Would it be appropriate for me to paste it in here? I'm not knowledgeable enough to troubleshoot through the System Log.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Mid-2013 Macbook Air Battery Life has become awful-Not Mavericks related
I have a Mid-2013 Macbook Air that I bought in July. i5, 1.3 GHz, 8GB RAM, 500 GB SSD. I honestly thought that my horrible battery life was due to the recent upgrade to Mavericks (many MBAir users are having problems with 10.9), so I downgraded to 10.8.5 this AM. With my backlit keyboard off and the screen at a mid-level of brightness, I am barely getting 2hrs of battery life. Before I go make an appointment with the Apple Genius, I was wondering whether anyone has any suggestions. I saw other threads on this issue, but none of them seem to really help. Below is the EtreCheck file (there seems to be a lot of Symantec traffic, but I am not sure that is the cause). Also, I am also running "hidden" so I wonder if the constant location services are draining the battery. Again, any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

After Mavericks install, your "time remaining" WILL BE INACCURATE until you do a SMC reset in many case
SMC reset
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.
There is a HUGE distinction here about someone getting less batt. life in actuality .......or are they just reading the "time remaining" and using that as a true indicator which is certainly is not.
Ive seen 3 notebooks after SMC reset jump 4+ hours in "time remaining" and slowly climb after 3+ full charge cycles.
Until things settle down, nobody should trust what the 'time remaining' says. -
Mid 2012 MacBook Air Yosemite Slow Booting and Old Boot Screen
Hello Guys,
I have a mid 2012 MacBook Air 13" and I had installed public beta of Yosemite on it. Now I am running OS X 10.10 (14A388b) and I have problems on the boot. On all the other macs, I saw that the booting screen is black background and a white Apple logo on it. But on my mac, the booting screen is same as Mavericks and for the first 5-6 seconds, the Apple logo doesn't show up. And the mac is booting very slowly. Also, Continuity and Handoff are not working properly. What might be the problem?Hello Guys,

Which Microphone for New Mid 2011 Macbook Air 13"
Please recommend a few USB condensor microphones for voice/vocal recordings that is sure to work with the New Mid 2011 Macbook Air.
My 3.5mm to USB adapters that work on my 2009 Macbook Pro with Leopard OS, no longer works with Lion OS
Ill be using this with GarageBand, iMovie & Audacity. Previously I'd use my Azden SMX-10 with the adapter. (the Azden is also used with my Canon DSLR).
Thanks in advance.It is entirely possible, as many have known from day one (as ifixit's first teardown revealed). Unlike the unupgradeable memory, the SSD is a discrete expansion card that is removeable with just one screw, after removing the case cover. It is however debateable as to whether such an expansion is worth the possible risk of making demonstrable changes to the MBA whilst still under warranty. So you may want to stave off consideration for a while.
I made the upgrade recently on my older 2010 MBA, and it was easier than upgrading the HDD on my old MacBook Pro.

Mid 2012 MacBook Air: fan won't run faster when overheated
mid 2012 MacBook Air, system (tried Mountain lion/Mavericks/Yosemite, all have the same problem)
WHAT HAPPENED:
The other day I was watching some flash video on the couch, and I heard the fan running like crazy. The laptop shut off 2 seconds later-- no warnings, just black out all of a sudden. (ps: I usually use it on the desk. Only used in bed/couch for a few times)
It won't start if I press the button immediately afterwards. Instead, it will restart itself after a few minutes, no matter what.
I shut it down and let it cool down for about an hour. From then on it wouldn't last more than 5 minutes when used heavily (Facetime, chrome together) and about an hour when used lightly (only one app like chrome). Then it shuts off without warning like before. The laptop felt really hot, and I couldn't hear the fan.
The battery drop down menu says "service battery", and doesn't disappear after a few restarts.
WHAT THE APPLE GENIUS SAID:
I took it to the Apple Store the next day, a genius ran a hardware test, and it showed no problem at all. After the test and restart, the "service battery" warning was gone too.
The genius said it seemed everything is ok. The battery only ran 159 cycles, and it's supposed to last 1000 cycles.
But he doesn't know why the laptop would shut down out of nothing. If we had apple care, they could bring it back and stress it out, to see whether it shuts off and find the problem. I just brought it home to see what happens.
WHAT I TRIED:
1. Max CPU: the fan doesn't react, still runs at 2000 rpm.
2. Hardware Test:
when the laptop is hot, it won't survive the test, shuts off during the test.
when it's cool, it passes the regular test in 1min30s, showing no problems.
when it's cool, the extended test cannot last 3min before it dies.
3. Fan test, it can run at maximum speed. In this case the CPU temperature will drop quickly.
4. The Enclosure Bottom, Memory Controller and the Mem Bank temperature doesn't seem to change. (I don't know if they are supposed to be that way...)
Please give me some advice about what you think the problem is, and what I can do about it. Thank you all so much!If it didn't show any problems in the Apple Store, maybe its your ambient temperature? Although even this shouldn't cause your machine to behave the way it is currently. You need to record it or something then show Apple the issue.

I am unable to install Virtual Machines on my Mid-2013 MacBook Air
Dear Apple Support Community,
I have recently moved away from a Mid-2010 MacBook Pro to a new Mid-2013 MacBook Air. As much as it pains me, I have a need to install a virtual machine running Windows 7 in order to utilize an application called vSphere. The vSphere web interface is too unreliable to use via any web browser, so running a Windows VM is the only way forward.
However, when using VMWare Fusion 5 (I know 6 is available, but I do not have a license for it) or VirtualBox (very latest version) I receive an error which states that my CPU is not 64-bit compatible. I was under the impression that since Snow Leopard (10.6) was release that Mac OS was fully 64-bit. My MacBook Air is currently running Mavericks (10.9.1). It has a 1.3GHz Intel Core i5 CPU.
I read that Apple restricts access to the EFI firmware settings, as I originally thought it was a case of enabling Virtualization capabilities on the processor. To further add to the dilemma my Mid-2010 MacBook Pro has no issues running VMWare Fusion or VirtualBox, so I am at a loss as to why I am unable use these virtualization platforms on my new Mac.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.I remember reading somewhere that the new macbook air's from 2013 have a 64 bit core i5 4250u processors.
Also intel mentions it here:

I am having problems rebooting my mid 2009 macbook pro (grey screen other issues), need help!
I am having problems rebooting, I have experienced the same problem as others with the grey screen but my case is a little different, It started with my mid 2009 macbook pro acting a little slower than normal, the screen would freeze, mouse wouldnt move and i'd be forced to "force reboot" this went on for a couple of days until i was tinkering with the wifi connection and it froze again. I had to reboot and this time i noticed that it took a long time to get to the login screen. i put in my password and it went into infinite load (i also tried the guest account and other accounts with same result). i tried rebooting again and the same thing would happen. after several reboots, the screen just stayed grey, sometimes with the apple logo and gear sometimes without it. Since its a 2009, (and for the most part, still works like a champ) i decided test the ram, i took one stick of ram out at a time to see if i could notice anything wrong with them. when i stuck just one in, the mac was still having the same problem rebooting. i pulled that ram and and stuck in the other and i noticed that this time the apple logo never appeard and a big crossed out circle appeared. figuring that the ram must be the problem, i ordered new ram and installed it. i noticed that when i rebooted for the first time with the new ram it was rather quick and took me straight to the login screen and i was able to log in with no problem. at this point i thought the problem was solved, but i noticed the macbook still acting funny. at first, none of my files appeared on my desktop or in the finder window. after about 20 minutes, everything magically popped up. i also noticed long pauses/freezes with the colored pin wheel spinnig. i closed the laptop and opened it again and the screen just stayed black. i tried rebooting again, and again i got the grey screen with no signs of being able to log in... i waited about 20 minutes and tried to reboot again and again i was able to log in, however the macbook is still acting slow and will freeze with no signs of unfreezing without a reboot.
my macbook is 5 years old and has plenty of miles on it, so i understand if the thing needs to be replaced alltogether but does anyone know what could be the issue? could the bad ram have corrupted the hard drive in anyway? would re-installing the OS fix it?? and if so, how would i do that if i downloaded mavericks from the app store? are there any other solutions to this problem?
all my files and what not are backed up on an external HD so theres nothing on it that i'd miss desperately if i had to whipe the hard drive but id really like to get her working again without any whiping of the HD. if anyone can help me out, it'd be greatly appreciatedIt is very difficult to offer troubleshooting suggestions when the "os version" you are using is unknown as each os has their own troubleshooting solutions.

Mid 2009 MacBook Pro not reading SSD? Help
I have bought a Kingston Hyperx SSD for my mid 2009 MacBook Pro but the laptop does not see the SSD. I have booted the SSD externally installed OSX and it boots fine on the laptop but NOT when fitted internally. Is this a firmware/software problem or is my MacBook simply not compatible with this drive? I have tried everything I can think of and the IT guy at my work has not got a clue either! ImGuessing a standard HD will work but as my old HD died I wanted to go to SSD.
Need some help ASAP!
Thanks!
SamThe 2009 models were notorious for having faulty SATA cables and I'm betting that's the problem. Go to www.ifixit.com, find the part number for the SATA cable and search eBay for a replacement cable (ifixit simply want too much for the cable - and I've never known anyone who has received a faulty cable from anyone on eBay).
I'm at least 95% certain that's your problem.
Good luck,
Clinton

Adding ram to mid-2009 Macbook Pro - 4gb vs 8gb?
I want to add ram to my mid-2009 Macbook Pro. It currently has 2gb ram. Any thoughts of whether I should upgrade 4gb or 8gb ram? It has a 2.26ghz intel core 2 processor. I only use the computer for internet and the occasional document editing.
If your needs are that modest, then 4 GB is fine. However, Mavericks is designed to use as much RAM as is available, and so more RAM is always better.
If I were you, I would put 4GB of RAM in, and then buy an SSD to replace the hard drive. You will be surprised how much faster it will be! It's the best way to extend the useful life of a older Mac. -
Run iMovie '11 on mid 2009 MacBook Pro?
Recently started working with iMovie on iOS devices and wanted to be able to work on those projects on my laptop as well. However, my mid-2009 MacBook Pro is currently running iMovie '09. Before I go to install iMovie '11 I want to make sure that it will actually work. iMovie '11 says it requires:
OS X Mavericks 10.6.2 or better
2 GB RAM (though 4 GB is recommended)
an OpenCL-capable graphics card
and 1280X800 resolution or better
I believe I'm good on the operating system, the graphics card and the resolution, but I'm not sure how to evaluate the RAM. Here are some specs on my laptop:
15" mid-2009 MacBook Pro 5, 3
Processor: 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
OS X 10.9.3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
HD memory capacity: 319.21 GB
HD memory available: 182.19 GB
and here is a screen shot of my Activity Monitor:
Will I have enough RAM to install and run iMovie '11? Is it likely that I'll be able to successfully install and run iMovie '11 on this ancient computer?
Thanks very much for the input.Yes, it will work. You have enough RAM, but more couldn't hurt.

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. -
Recently, my mid-2009 MacBook Pro has been crashing when I close the screen ("it's having a problem recognizing when the screen is closed/open and deciding what to do, error overload etc."). It wasn't an SMC issue so I took it to an Apple Store, ran some tests, and decided my hard-drive is failing.
Not wanting to spend an insane amount of money on some "official apple hard-drive," I want to install a new 256GB SSD instead. Hoping to squeeze as much life out of this computer as possible (in January I upgraded from 4 GB RAM to 8 GB), I would like to try and start from scratch, i.e. back-up important folders, music, photos etc. and only take that to the new hard-drive. If someone could explain all the steps I need to take to safely complete this task (or point me in the direction of a guide) I'd appreciate it.
Potentially Important info:
Model: mid-2009 13'' MacBook Pro
Processor: 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Software: OS X 10.8.4
Some additional questions I have...
Should I be concerned with making a fully bootable back-up (not sure what that is called) as well? If so, what program should I use to create it?
How much more life should I try and push out of this computer? I'm an engineering student and really only use it for web-surfing, music, and
word-processing. The batter was replaced in March, the RAM was upgraded to 8 GB in January. When the battery was swapped, the trackpad went nuts so that's new too. Only other issues are a slightly loose audio jack and the left side of the screen being slightly wobbly (hinge is worn I'm told).cwgonzalez1192

Well there is no "official Apple HD / SSD" in any regard, no worries there.
If as you say youre only using same for surfing and word processing, why the need for a SSD? You would not notice any speed diff. in use on either of those,....in boot times yes, but in word or surfing, not.
You can push it likely a few more years, for mere surfing and word processing,...many many years. Up TO the point that any major fixes become unrealistic relative to getting a new(ER) machine.
Concerned with a boot clone? yes and no. Its an ideal immediate recovery, since you cannot boot from Time Machine, ....in case of HD crash, recovery takes seconds from boot, or 20 mins or so from removing old and installing a clone. All the prosumers and pros have at least one updated clone of their prime machines.
You can do a "fresh install" if you choose, however if your current drive is FINE, why not merely clone it and save yourself some headache?...., but that is your prerogative of course. Ideally 2 drives, one to backup your data (you need that regardless of installing a new drive for sake of a backup/archive,...ideally 2 actually, not merely one).
You could clone internal to NEW SSD/HD , ...then offload unnecessary files to an external to free up space and clutter and run off the clone, and this would only take a couple hours......the clone itself takes approx. 40+ mins.
CLONE Apps :
Superduper does not clone the recovery partition, but that is NOT necessary if you keep the original HD as a “backup clone”. Most don’t bother with the recovery partition in a clone, however that is your prerogative.
