Problem Mac Air 13 i7

My MBA battery is dropping pretty fast even though im just surfing and using spotify. I don´t really know if it is normal that you drop from 100% to 45% after watching about 2 hours netflix films aswell? I bought the I7 4g version and i love it, but i must say that the battery issue really grinds my gears...

You are right, Adobe does not support CS5 because it is no longer sold.
Simply download the trial version of CS5 from this Adobe web site and input your serial number.

I bought my Mac Air 13' in August. Black screen problems constantly happens. I asked some of my friends who also use Air. They share the same experience. Overall, it is a pretty good computer. But it bothers me when I do work and it suddenly goes black.

without more information, I assume you mean a blackout from sleep issue.
Go to system preferences > energy settings > raise the "turn display off" setting up to as needed, say 5 mins. or 10 mins.
AND ...
unchecked the "Put hard disks to sleep when possible" in both the battery and power adapter tabs.
test it and check back

Start Up Problems with too full Mac Air

I cant restart my Mac Air after the batterie whent flat after i got message about Start Up Memory Too Full. What do i do now.

You may be able to boot in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
To locate large files, you can use Spotlight as described here. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
You can also use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Proceed further only if the problem hasn't been solved.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
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.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). 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. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

Problem Installing Air on 2 Macs

I'm having a problem installing Air on 2 macs. The symptoms are the same - the installer launches and nothing else happens.
Configuration 1:
Macbook Pro (Feb 2008); 2.5 GHz; MacOS 10.6.3
Configuration 2:
PowerMac G5; dual 2.5 GHz; MacOS 10.5.8
Both computers have Design Premium CS3 installed, in case that matters.
Here's the log off of the laptop:
Performing runtime install
UI SWF load is complete
UI initialized
starting user confirmation
Version of this installer: 1.5.3.9130
Installation type: new
And there it stays. The installer is running and I can choose Quit from its menu. It looks like it's waiting for user authentication, but the dialog never appears. Since the symptoms on both are the same, I'm guessing that whatever the cause is something common to both computers. I've had no problems installing Flash or any other program. This looks to be specific to Air.
FWIW, I tried installing the beta of Air 2.0 hoping that might work. No difference! Here's that log (from Console):
4/8/10 2:55:22 PM Adobe AIR Installer[1488] Performing runtime install
4/8/10 2:55:22 PM Adobe AIR Installer[1488] UI SWF load is complete
4/8/10 2:55:22 PM Adobe AIR Installer[1488] UI initialized

4/8/10 2:55:22 PM Adobe AIR Installer[1488] Installation type: new
The only difference is when I quit out the version 2 installer, a crash report is generated. I can post that if anyone thinks it would help.
Any suggestions?

New mac air running hot! Anyone having same problem?

I downloaded Lion last night on my Mac Book Air (purchased Feb of this year). The fan would hardly run before as computer would rarely get hot. Now it is running constantly since download. Anyone else having similar issue? Is there a solution to this?

I had the same problem Mac late 2010, 2.13 Intel core duo 4GB RAM 2
Lion was installed as update.
as result:
CPU on 80 °C and to keep it between 70 and 80 °C fan had to work on 6500 RPM.
I used Istat.
repaired permissions, no result, reset the SMC and so on... no results.
lately reading also other posts, I started to disable 1 by 1 the start up items.
the antivirus Sophos + the time machine auto back up -on off was quite successful
now I have a 4000 RPM = quite decent as noise level and CPU at 40-47 °C.
had nothing to do with the flash or browsing, and so on.
Spotlight, yess is pushing the temp up, but is not running 24/7
Check your startup items, the answer can be there
Maybe helps
Good luck!

El Mac tiene 6 meses, y un uso muy moderado, no ha recibido ningun golpe ni ha extado espuesto a ninguna situacion dificil.
Me pueden informar a que se debe este problema, y si alguien ha tenido el mismo ?
Gracias

Hi policarro,
Welcome to the Apple Support Community!
You have already done some great troubleshooting steps for this issue by running Disk Utility and attempting a Safe Boot. There are some other steps I would recommend to go along with what you have already done. Please use the attached article and work through the troubleshooting steps provided.
Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck

I cannot close my mail on Mac Air. How do I resolve the problem?

I cannot close my mail on mac air. There is a message appearing "the Message Design" How do I resolve the problem?.

FYI - clicking the red dot will not Quit an application that can have more than one window open. Mail is such an app. So are Safari, Pages, Numbers, Keynote. The convention for quitting Macintosh Applications is either command-Q on the keyboard or, if you're a mouser - File->Quit. On the other hand System Preferences, Calculator, DiskUtility and Face time are examples of single window Apps where "closing the window" Quitis the program.
The confusion is more common among WinDUHows to Macintosh converts.

I just got myself the new 13 inch Mac Air. When I scrol up or down on an Internet page, like a news article, I see rowing, ripple distortions in the document, which causes headaches for me. Is this a common problem? Can I do anything to eliminate this?

Hello New Friends:
I've been a Windows user but my first computer was the original Mac that I used in college.
I just got myself a new Mac Air -- great! But I'm getting headaches from distortions on the screen when I scrol up and down a news article on the Internet. Is this a common problem for Air? Can I do anything to eliminate this problem.
Thanks.

It's just you. Remember, there are lots of people who purchase the MacBook Air that are using it without issue. These forums are like a hospital emergency room - the people you see here are the ones that need help. The rest are all out there enjoying their MBAs. Very few people come here to post that everything is working perfectly.

I currently have an iphone that i connect to my mac air to download music, i have now bought a nano for my wife can we use both devices on the same air without any problems???

My wife and I both have the iPhone 4 and it's actually pretty simple. Add another user on your MBA (her) and she can use the other iTunes when she is logged in. The iTunes is empty and will erase her iPhone, so be sure that she syncs her iPhone, then back up her library onto a portable media device like I did (SD Card) and reload it onto her empty iTunes on your MBA before she attempts to sync with it.
Works well...

Mac air ''11 track pad/ system problem?

Hello,
I have a mac air 2011 ill give more specs when i get home.
So i turn my mac on and it acts normal for a few mins, then the cursor starts flipping out and when i move my R.A.T mouse. I cannot click on anything st all no side bar no windows open nothing on the desktop. My track pad has been warn down over the past 3 years and ive been using usb mice to game since i got the laptop. The track pad is unresponsive and does not click and moves sporadically when i try to move it.
I recently updated my air to maverick last week. Prior to this it had no problems at all. Then again my track pad has been messed up for a while now, jst before this happened, it would occasionally stick or double click when i click once.
I have tried PRAM reset. It works for about 5 mins and then it goes crazy again. Thr two things ive seen online is get a t-6 hex screw driver and tighten the screws or go to apple. Any one else have this problem? Is there any simple fix or anything i can do? Also i hVent had time to get a screwdriver yet.
So basically i cant use my laptop now. I can turn it on for five minutes but if i touch the track pad or wait a bit, the laptop will jst spazz the cursor out and after that it i cant click anything. Also during the spazz period i saw that it sometimes goes to mission control, the screen where all of your desktops or full screen programs pop up. Help meeee i need to get back to gw2!! Thanks

Connecting Mac Air to TV and sound problems

Mac air problem,?

when i connect my mac air to monitor, i could not find the HMDI option in soud control system to control the sound from the monitor, then i watch the monitor but sound output from the mac??

Your download issues could be related to your WiFi dongle. If you can't wait until broadband is installed at your home, go to an Apple store or borrow a friend's Internet access. While I often download items via WiFi I always use a wired connected for downloading something as large as an OS.
