  • Pairing Macbook Air with Bluetooth Speaker

    My sony SRS X5 (black) is pairing with my macbook air, it says "connected" then immediately switched to "not connected". The speaker connects to my phone no problem, and i have tried all other troubleshooting i know of. Help?

    When it comes to connecting bluetooth, you can never really know whats going on. I have also had lots of trouble in the past with bluetoothing apple products. what i would do is completely restart both products and try again

  • Can't pair macbook air with muse mini blue tooth speaker?

    I am trying to pair up my new Muse Mini blue tooth speaker and my MacBook Air  computer wont even recognize it. I am able to pair it to my iphone5 and it works wonderful. I would appreciate any assistance solving this. Thanks Jim

    Hi any one looking at this problem. I kept reading posts and found one that said to make sure if I had paired the muse mini to another device I should turn the other device blue tooth off. I did and bingo it paired to the Mac Air. Thanks all.
    Hope this helps others.

  • Unable to connect macbook air with iphone 5s using bluetooth

    both the system able to pair the devices but getting disconnected within 1 sec. While same iphone 5s is connected to other bluetooth devices like my car's system.

    Correct, Macs and i-devices do not connect via Bluetooth.
    What are you trying to accomplish?  There is probably some other way to do it.

  • How do I sync my MacBook Air with my iPhone?

    I just purchased a new MacBook Air.  While setting it up, I created a new Apple ID.  Unfortunately, I am now experiencing difficulties when trying to sync my new MacBook Air with my iPhone, which is synchronized to my old Apple ID.  I want all of my information (music, pictures, contacts, etc.) on my new mac.  How can I sync the two devices? (my phone is synchronized with another Mac)  Any help?

    Can you sign into iCloud (System Preferences -> iCloud) on your new Air with the same account you use on your iPhone?

  • How do i pair my macbook air with my iPad??

    How do I pair my macbook air with my iPad???

    What do you mean by "pair"? If you're asking about Bluetooth pairing, the only thing you could do if you paired them would be to share the iPad's internet connection. iOS doesn't have the BT profiles for file sharing or syncing.
    If you're asking about something different, please provide some details.
    Best of luck.

  • I have a MacBook Air with OS X and am having trouble accessing the ADT Pulse Home Security System cameras.  The mobile (iPhone and iPad) apps allow access no problem, but I can't get a picture on the MacBook.  Have tried Safari and Firefox browsers.

    From a Catherine to Katherine -- Had the exact same problem!!  I had to enable Java twice - both in Safari and then on the MacBookAir itself.

  • I have purchased (veranda magazines) for my IPHONE which I would like to use on my macbook air. Do I have to repurchase these app or is there some way to get them in my macbook air with no charge?

    i have purchased (veranda magazines) for my IPHONE which I would like to use on my macbook air. Do I have to repurchase these app or is there some way to get them in my macbook air with no charge?

    Veranda Magazine is a free app available for iOS devices in the iOS App Store.  You then purchase a Veranda Magazine subscription from within the app.  In other words, the app itself is free, but the contents are not.
    There is no way to duplicate or import this to a Mac.  Your Mac runs a totally different operating system.
    iBooks can now import to Mac since OS X Mavericks came out about a month ago.  But that does not apply to magazines or iOS Newsstand publications.

  • Frozen rogue image on macbook air: synced iphone, was asked to download from itunes, to restart, did this. when restarted there was photo of chocolate saying 'love you'. never seen image, it will not delete, the techs at work tried too. No luck.Virus?

    frozen rogue image on macbook air: synced iphone, was asked to download from itunes, to restart, did this. when restarted there was photo of chocolate saying 'love you'. never seen image, it will not delete, the techs at work tried too. No luck.Virus? any ideas?

    I'm an applications developer and also run a part-time videography business. As such, I require more than 3.12GB of RAM. That is the physical limitation of a 32bit system. Pointless to stay on 32bit if you plan on having more than that much RAM.
    I'm also not about to pay someone to fix my PC when I can do it myself. I was originally hoping for someone who had experienced the problem before to point me in the right direction so I didn't have to spend so much time trying to figure out what the issue was for myself.
    Basically, in the end the problem was caused because right at the point in time when I chose to uninstall, and reinstall; Apple released a new version of iTunes. This version in turn had a requirement of iOS 4.2 to sync with the iPhone. This is a pretty embarrassing for Apple that they would release software reliant on other software before said software was released.
    Had I realised I was downloading a newer version at the initial point of installation, this wouldn't have been an issue. I could've easily have rolled back iTunes to the previous version and gotten on with my life.
    Another issue is that iTunes is not actually a 64 bit application. It masquerades as one to allow installation on the 64 bit platform.

  • Connecting macbook air with bose wireless sound link?

    Can someone tell me how to connect a previously paired macbook air to a bose wireless soundlink?  I can pair them, but they will not connect.

    I had the same issue with my macbook air intel i5, latest os, and this is the way it worked for me:
    1.- When you pair for the first time your macbook and your bose soundlink, your soundlink will appear in your Bluetooth menu at the left side list, but it is not conected yet... just recognized... so your soundlink doesnt make the tipical pairing sound...
    2.- So the next step is to Set your Soundlink as Audio Device, in the same Bluetooth menu (below the devices list) just select the Soundlink so it becomes blue and then click on the mesh or gear icon and you,ll get a submenu, then just select Set as Audio Device, and done!
    Please note that even at the time you do that your soundlink is not going to do the pairing sound, you need to start playing music or movies or games to get actually paired, and for some reason if you stop playing it for a few minutes it gets unpaired again and only start again if you play again music, movies or games... kind of anoying because then you will hear the pairing noise very often...
    I hope this help somebody.

  • Synching my MacBook Air with my PC

    Can I synch my MacBook Air with my PC other than wirelessly. Currently, I use my PC as the main tool for synching my IPAD and IPhone 4, but the MacBook Air doesn't come with a plug that will allow this to happen.

    Syncing iTunes and email should be pretty straight forward. To share iTunes libraries on both the MBA and PC version of iTunes click Advanced Menu - Turn on Home Sharing. I would also consider getting  iTunes Match and also have iCloud set up on your iMac, iPad and PC. You can learn how to setup iCloud by clicking the iCloud - Learn how to set up iCloud link. Once you have iCloud and iTunes Match setup and running you can easily sync your EMail, Contacts, Calendar, Bookmarks, etc... between the PC, iMac and iPad. If you need further assistance on how to do this plesae post in the appropriate iCloud forum.

  • When I login to my bank, I get the message: 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied. Have new MacBook Air with Yosemite. How to solve this problem?

    When I try to login to the website of my bank, I get the following error message:
    403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
    You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.
    I have a new MacBook Air with OS Yosemite installed.
    What is the problem and how can I solve it?

    Some websites require a special client certficate for access. If you don't have that certficate, you'll have to contact the site operator to find out how to get one.
    Sometimes the problem is caused by a web server that is configured to request an optional client certificate. Safari treats the request as mandatory. In that case, other browsers such as Firefox and Chrome may be able to connect to the site, because they ignore the request.
    The first time you were prompted for a certificate, you may have clicked through a dialog that requested access to the Apple certificate in your keychain that is used to secure the iMessage service. In that case, you may be able to regain access to the site in Safari by doing as follows.
    Back up all data.
    Double-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    com.apple.idms.appleid.prd
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Keychain Access 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 Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Paste into the search field in the Keychain Access window by clicking in it and pressing the key combination command-V. An item may appear in the list of keychain items. The Name will begin with string you searched for, and the Kind will be "certificate."
    Delete the item by selecting it and pressing the delete key. It will be recreated automatically the next time you launch the Messages or FaceTime application.
    The next time you visit a site that prompts for an optional client certificate, cancel out of the prompt. You may have to do this several times before the server stops asking.

  • I recently purchase macbook air with OS 10.10.2. I want to use my Seagate external backup plus hard drive for time machine back up. How to partition my 1TB Seagate back up plus hard drive for use with mac and windows pc?

    Hi All,
    I recently purchased 13" Macbook Air with OS 10.10.2. I want to use my 1TB Seagate backup plus external hard drive as time machine and my windows 7 pc. Please suggest a method. Thanks in advance for your reply.

    I strongly recommend having an external drive dedicated solely for TimeMachine. You could partition the drive but if something goes wrong you risk losing the data on both partitions. Should you decide to go ahead with splitting the drive for two different uses you’ll need to partition the drive either using the Mac’s built in Disk Utility program or Windows utility. I believe the built in Windows disk utility program will destroy the current partition and erase the data that’s on it - I use a third party Windows disk utility program for partitioning and it allows for non-destructive partitioning but warns to back up data first just in case. Apple’s Disk Utility can do non-destructive partitions but I don’t recall every trying to do a non-destructive partition on a disk originally formatted for Windows using it. Again - back up that data just in case.
    Finally, your TimeMachine drive should be at least 1.5 times (I prefer 2 times) the size of the data you expect to be backing up a year or two from now.  In other words, if you currently are using 50GB of your computer’s drive but expect to begin purchasing Mac software to replace software on your Windows computer and if you expect to be putting photos, music, and other data on it you might expect that two years from now you’ll have 100GB of stuff on the drive. So a 200GB partition is the smallest size you’d want.  TM’s backup scheme keeps multiple copies of data as it changes so the extra room is important for this scheme.

  • I ordered my Macbook Air with Aperture two years ago. I now have an iMac - can I use that with Aperture in any way?

    I ordered my Macbook Air with Aperture two years ago. I now have an iMac - can I use that with Aperture in any way? I appreciate that it is a different computer but I am now the end user of both devices and I was just wondering if it was possible.
    Thanks,
    Sean

    The answer would be in your software license agreement for Aperture. However if you cannot locate it you can ask in the Aperture forum, the link for that is:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/professional_applications/aperture
    However I believe you can have Aperture installed on two machines however only one may be using it at a time.
    On the new iMac launch the Mac App Store - Purchased - look for Aperture and download to your new machine.
