MBA (late 2010) restarts when asleep for a while

Hi.
I love my new macbook air, but I'm having a very annoying issue. When I shut the lid, the macbook sleeps. When I open the lid, sometimes it wakes up fine, and other times (generally, when it's been sleeping for about an hour) it's halfway to booting windows (I'm using bootcamp).
So, I was wondering if anyone knew what was up. The mac seems to be detecting the battery power ok. I've also looked in power save settings but nothing stands out as being something that I need to change. Please help!

I'm having same issue.
Left a program running, closed lid.
Came back an hour and 10 minutes later.
Opened lid, screen stays off
Pressed enter key, computer starts from apple screen
Logged in, nothing running basically restarted
This is very interesting behavior and would not be expected. I am assuming it has something to do with the deep sleep. If you go to System Profiler > Power, the Deep Sleep Delay is 4200, which I am assuming is in seconds and is why this only happens after 1 hour 10 minutes.

Why does it forget my background when asleep for a while?

I notice that if I close my 17" powerbook and open it a day later, it forgets my special desktop image. Most everything else seems ok - I can't find anything else that's off, but the desktop goes back to a homogenous blue and I have to go to System Preferences to set it again. Interestingly, when I go to the "Desktop and screensaver" panel, it shows the right JPG as the background and all I have to do is change the "stretch" etc. option and it goes back to normal. Any ideas? Why does it do this when it's been alseep for a while?

The answer is in a little checkbox called "do not change document relative paths" in the template options under "manage site." Check the box!

Correct Adapter/cord for 11-inch MBA, late 2010

I lost my adapter/cord for my 11-inch MBA, late 2010. looks like it needs an 85W adapter, but I can't find an 85W adapter/cord replacement cord. Why is this so difficult? MagSafe isn't coorect one. Anyone suggest where to find. Thanks

Thanks. Will get this one.
But still a Q: When I go to System Information > Hardware > Power > AC Charger Information > Wattage it has 85. That was why I thought I needed 85W.
Read on Apple site that can run with higher wattage, but not lower wattage. 45W, 60W and 85W are same price. Any advantages to running higher wattage?

HT3964 My MacBook Pro i5 Dual Core has a hardtime waking up when the computer is put to sleep and only when it goes to sleep and has been asleep for a while. The indicator light flashes on and off for a while and then freezes. I've done an SMC reset once.

Does any one have the same problem with their MacBook Pro i5 Intel Dual Core? If the computer goes to sleep (not the screen) and is asleep for a while, when I try to wake it up it doesn't respond. I have to power it downn and restart it and sometimes it takes two or three attempts. Otherwise it works fine. I upgraded the memory to 8 GB. That is the only alteration doen to it. I've performed one SMC restart and now it wakes up but it takes a while and a gray screen shows up. When I insert a DVD it won't start automatically I have to start the application in order to see it. Any suggestions?

How is Lion's performance with the baseline 13" MBA (Late 2010) 2GB RAM? I know it works fine with the baseline 11" 2GB model, but because that's a smaller machine, perhaps the 2GB limit is not so detrimental to performance. MBA 13" 1.86, 2GB/2010

How does the baseline 13" mba (late 2010, 1.86 ghz, 2GB RAM/128GB) work with OSX LIon? I know the baseline 11" is fine, but does the larger form factor of the MBA 13" require more RAM to be speedy under Lion? I wouldn't think so, but please advise. Please answer this question ONLY with refrence to the specs listed (13" MBA (late 2010, 1.86 ghz, 2GB RAM, 128gb). Thanks much!

Overy time, every PC/Mac gets unavoidably bloated with junk like unnecessary files/downloads/apps or left-over files of video-streams/uninstalled apps/caches/... which slow down the overall system. That's why PC/Mac should be formatted (=deleting everything even including the operating system) once in a while to reinstall the operating system (here: Lion) from scratch -hence "clean install". To format a Mac is pretty easy, but all of your files (e.g. images, documents,...) should be saved on external harddrives/CDs/DVDs/Flash-drives... because they are going to be deleted during the formatting.
I'm NOT going to describe you how to format, because it might not be necessary for you.
But what you NEED to do anyway is (if you want Lion):
(( 0. Eventually, but not necessarily: Make a TimeMachine-BackUp to be able to return to Snow Leopard))
1. Download Lion, BUT DON'T install it (cancel the install-process).
2. Follow the instructions on this site:
http://lifehacker.com/5823096/how-to-burn-your-own-lion-install-dvd-or-flash-dri ve
This will give you a legal copy of Lion on a DVD or Flash-Drive, which btw allows you to install it on all of your mac at home. Why do you need copy of Lion? If you encounter problems with lion after a "normal install"(=NOT formatting and NOT clean installing the operating system), you still have the option to make a clean install. A clean install can't be done without the copy of Lion on a DVD or Flash-Drive.

SSD for MBA Late 2010

Hiya
Does anyone know if the type of SSD and Battery for that matter have to be specifically for the desired MBA or can I ie. install a late 2012 MBP SSD in an air or use a 2012 11" MBA battery in a late 2010 MBA?
Thanks for your help
Cheers Richard

They are not interchangeable, but you can purchase a replacement SSD from OWC / MacSales:
https://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC/Air-Retina/Apple-MacBook-Air-2010-Drive- Internal-Flash
Have Apple replace the battery. They are not user-serviceable. New OEM batteries are not available to purchase outside of Apple, no matter what their vendors may claim.

Version of Windows 7 for MBA late 2010

anybody installed the Home Basic version of windows7 on the newly released mac book air late 2010? Is it supported or only versions above Home premium version are supported? Many thanks.

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
Windows 7 Home Basic is not listed in Apples system requirements for installing WIndows 7 on a MBA http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4410
Additionally, Home Basic is only avaiable as a bundled-version with low-end PCs in emerging markets like India, Mexico, and similar places.
Usually such bundled-version of Windows only work with the computer they were originally sold with / came with.
So, Home Premium is the minimum to get / install on a MBA or other Macs.
Regards
Stefan

Anyone can help me out?

Yes, it is indeed good news.
Leave your Testdisk display and start a new Terminal Window.
You need to use the following steps. If you see any error messages during the following steps, please stop and post back here with the error message. The following steps have values from your Testdisk output (and you can verify) in Steps 7 and 8.
Rebuild GPT4 using start/end offsets
Sudo gdisk /dev/rdisk0
P (print the full list of parts)
D (delete)
4 (part 4)
N (new part)
4   (part 4)
421875712 - Start offset in bytes (start point for Bootcamp part)
+68358137 (Size offset as opposed to End offset)
0700     (Windows part type)
P           (print list of all parts just to see what changes will be made)
W         (Write the new GPT)
Y           (Yes! really write the new GPT)
This will delete and re-write the GPT partition info for /dev/disk0s4.
Rebuild MBR to match the new GPT information thus resetting the Hybrid MBR. Use defaults for other questions (like partition codes). The only values that need modifications are the Boot flags and step 6. Accept all other defaults that Gdisk offers.
Sudo gdisk /dev/disk0
P (Print list of parts)
R   (Recover)
H (chooses Hybrid)
Partitions numbers to be hybridized: 2 3 4
Y (Good for GRUB question)
N (part 2 boot flag)
N (part 3 boot flag)
Y (part 4 boot flag make NTFS bootable partition)
W (Write the new MBR)
Y    (Yes! write the new MBR)
Reboot
This is an example for the second set.
Place EFI GPT (0xEE) partition first in MBR (good for GRUB)? (Y/N): Y
Creating entry for GPT partition #2 (MBR partition #2)
Enter an MBR hex code (default AF): Press Enter/Return
Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): N
Creating entry for GPT partition #3 (MBR partition #3)
Enter an MBR hex code (default AB): Press Enter/Return
Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): N
Creating entry for GPT partition #4 (MBR partition #4)
Enter an MBR hex code (default 07): 07
Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): Y
Test 1 - Does Bootcamp Volume show up in Finder?
Test 2 - Can you see files in Bootcamp Volume?
Test 3 - Can you select Bootcamp in System Preferences -> Startup Disk?
Test 4 - If Test 3 is successful, select Bootcamp and Click Restart.

Mom's MBA late 2010

Hi,
My mom bought a macbook air last year late 2010 model:
1.86GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
2GB memory
Since lion is coming out tomorrow that's what I'm hearing all around, hopefully. She only has 2GB memory, can she do an upgrade? We have bought a 40$ itune card and it's been in her itunes for over a month, just waiting for this big lion thing to happen. I don't want her to be disappointed. Can she still upgrade? I heard that you need 4GB in order to. :/

A charge cycle means using all of the battery’s power, but that doesn’t necessarily mean a single charge. For instance, you could use your Mac for a few hours one day, using half its power, and then recharge it fully. If you did the same thing the next day, it would count as one charge cycle, not two.
Here's an article on batteries and charge cycles.
http://www.apple.com/batteries/
I'm not a very good example as I rarely calibrate the battery, keep it on the charger when stationary and only use the battery when travelling. Mine has 205 cycles, the battery is over 3 years old, Last day of Jan 2008. It's still in great shape.

MBA (late 2010) support 5GHz wireless network?

Does MacBook Air (late 2010) support 5GHz wifi network please?
Thank you in advance for your answer.

Yes, I have a 5GHz 802.11n network consisting of three airport base stations at home and the new MBA connects and roams seamlessly among them.

MacBook Pro late 2010 i7 2.66 crashes randomlly while using expose

Any suggestions on this.
Happens only when using expose. every other thing is fine.

You have what one poster here describes as the 'Edsel' of MacBook Pros. According to your kernel panic, you have one of the mid-2010 models with the defective NVIDIA GPU.
Even though your experience is not the same as noted in this - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US - article, it's the GPU. Apple should replace your logic board free of charge.
Good luck - be sure and print out the KB article when you take your machine back to the Apple Store.

My iPad sometimes freezes sideways when used for a while

I found that when I use my iPad in landscape for a while it freezes and I can not rotate the device orientation and I have to reboot it, any way to prevent this?

I use my iPad almost exclusively in landscape orientation and I've had no problems with the screen rotating. So this is merely a guess on my part. It may be that you have too many other things going on in the background and I stress maybe.
You could try quitting some apps to see if that helps. Double tap the home button to see the active/recent apps across the bottom. If you see that you have many apps in there try this. Hold down on an app icon until they all wiggle, then tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the icon to close the app. Tap the home button and the apps stop wiggling.
You say that rebooting solves the issue so you could try this and it might help.

Macboor air 13 late 2010 freezes when wake from deep sleep

Hi. I have had this problem for a few months and still havent found a solution. This macbook air freezes and is totally unresponsive for five or six seconds when it wakes from deep sleep. I have tried:
1 Apple hardware test, which came up negative. No hardware problem detected
2 reset the SMC several times. No fix.
3 repaired permissions in disk utility, and also verified and repaired disk. Still no results.
4 restarted many times.
5 tried booting in safe mode, but it made the machine hang.
The only thing I havent tried yet is resetting the PRAM. in the event that that doesnt work, does anyone have any ideas. I only found thre

I think it might just depend on how often your machine does this. My MBA 13 has done what you are describing one or twice, but its a rare event. I'm not too worried about it, but you might want to contact AppleCare and see if they have any more information...
