Please help with my macbook air!

Hi, every time I shut my laptop, and come back on I have to re-select my network option. If any of you know any way on how to fix this issue it would help so much! The last thing is that every time I try to go onto another website, It tells me safari cannot identify the website, and that the websites certficate has expired. Please help, it will be so appreciated. Thank you!

Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must clickApply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist.

  • Please Help - Garageband on Macbook Air

    Hello,
    I just bought a new Macbook Air and was all excited to start jammin my guitar using a guitar to USB cable, until I hooked it up and the only sound that comes out of the speakers is a continuous loud thudding sound (DUD-DUD-DUD-DUD-DUD-......). I sometimes faintly hear the guitar amid the thudding but that's about it.
    I've checked the preferences and they look OK.
    Audio Output: Built In Output
    Audio Input: C-Media USB headset (strangely, the comp recognizes it as a headset, but I hope that's not an issue here)
    This is my first mac and I'm now writing with little energy in the tank. Please let me know if there's a solution (I've done some googling but to no avail).
    Thanks,
    Kay

    I'm assuming you have selected the USB interface in GB's preference's?
    What are you plugging into?
    In other words a hub? keyboard? into the Mac?
    When you have that issue try restarting. If that doesn't help then try unplugging and plugging it back in.
    Apple changed their USB Core Audio at 10.5. This can be an issue for some class compliant (driverless) interfaces.
    It's important to check compatibility for any interface...
    But a good clue tends to be spec's like: Compatible with Mac OS® X 10.5 or 10.6...
    If you continue to have issues and are looking to just plug a guitar in. Right now Native Instruments has a 50% off sale on their Guitar Rig Mobile.
    It's $59.00 and comes with Guitar Rig Mobile...which you can run stand-alone or in GB as an instrument.
    Much better system then what you have...and will still have value to you as you progress or graduate from a beginner.
    If you need to use mic's or other types of I/O (inputs and outputs) then something like the Sapphire may make more sense for you...
    But if you don't want to spend a lot of money and just need to go direct in with a guitar the NI box is a viable option.

  • Please Help.  Restore macbook air

    Hi everyone. I've tried to restore my macbook air using the remote disc method described many times in this forum, but I think I have a new issue never discussed. Here is what I'm doing:
    1. Insert cd into my iMac
    2. Reboot macbook air and hold down option key
    3. Connect to wifi network and select remote MacOS cd as the bootup
    Now, after I do all that, all I get is the loading screen. Eventually the machine will restart and boot up as it normally does to the operating system. What am I doing wrong here. All I want to do is restore my computer to it's original state. Please help me.

    Thanks for the response. I get past step 9 where I select 'continue in Remote Install Mac OS X and my macbook air goes to a loading screen with a rotating globe. After it loads for about 5 minutes, the machine restarts and simply loads Mac OS X without entering the setup.

  • Need help with my Macbook air 13inch battery

    hey i just got my Macbook air 13inch baseline and i was watching a youtube video with full charge and it say i only have 3.30hours-4hours of battery left is that normal? and if i play some music on itunes with only 1 webpage open(with no video) it says i only have about 4hours left. The apple webpage claims that the macbook air 13inch can last upto 7hours of normal web use but when i was just browing the web with no video no song it still give me about 5hours-6hours max.

    but is it normal that i get that much less battery by watching video or listening to music?
    There is a fixed amount of energy in a charged battery.
    The faster you take it out the faster the battery will be drained.
    Watching videos puts a heavy load on the battery.

  • Hello please help me my MacBook Pro screen when desktop switching fingers pressing 3 distorts a bit, with him?

    hello please help me my MacBook Pro screen when desktop switching fingers pressing 3 distorts a bit, with him?

    First, remove Comodo. You don't need it, and it sounds like it is causing a problem.
    The other symptoms sound like you have adware installed. Comodo might have detected some components of that adware, or it might not have, but whatever the case, you should NEVER allow any anti-virus software to quarantine or delete files from your computer. See: How to remove infected files.
    Regarding the adware, see my Adware Removal Guide.

  • No problem with iMac, MacBook Air, but no joy with iPod touch

    I switched ISP last week, and while I was able to link Mail with a MacBook Air, I hit disaster when I tried to do likewise with iPod Touch. I have my email with one ISP, but the new ISP gives me better broadband, and so I must use their SMTP. At first I had no problem as I inserted the correct Incoming and outgoing settings. Now I can't get past the first step of the new account box. That box throws up a webmail address I never had, and an Stmp I dispensed with last week. When I proceed to insert the correct settings, I get a message that my email service won't work. At my wits end with this. Can anyone help? Please.

    Do the incoming and outgoing mail server settings match those of what is shown on your MacBook Air?

  • Deskjet ink advantage 4625 won't print in colour with my macbook air

    Hi , My printer does not print in color  with my macbook air (OS X). pls help...

    Hi,
    If you have Mac OS X 10.6, 10.7, 10.8 or 10.9, I afraid the printer is not compatible with your Mac and therefore the printing is black ink only:

    Although it is not officially supported, you may be able to get it working using 3rd party solutions as HPIJS as an example..
    Be sure to install any of the 3 required downloads and follow the Printer Set Up Instructions:
