Water and macbook air- bluetooth problem

I spilt a whole glass of water over my macbook air, I dried it off and put it straight in the airing cupboard for 5 days. When I came to turn it on I could hear a high pitched buzzing noise coming from the top of the keyboard. I powered down and performed a SMC reset and it came back on with no noise. Everything seems to be working now apart from the bluetooth. Have I got lucky?- if I take it to Apple about the bluetooth problem will they blame water damage, is it any easy fix?
Thanks

Thanks Linc. Tried all of that but still nothing. I can't help get the feeling that it's me doing something stupid but I've never had this problem with my iPhones, iPads or iMacs.

Iphone 5c and Macbook Air wifi problems

Just bought an iphone 5c and got the new macbook air in September. Everything has been great with my macbook air until I got my iphone 5c. The problem comes when I have both the phone and laptop together, connected to my home wifi. Only one will connect at a time, on my iphone it wont even recognise my home wifi but as soon as I disconnect my laptop the wifi becomes visable. I know its not a router issue, Ive turned it on and off and it only works for about 5 minutes. Can anyone tell me what the think is going on or how to fix it? Thanks, Eva

What exactly have you tried? Did you try different security settings? Which ones did you try? Were there any more successful than another? Which one was it on when it worked for a few seconds? Is the router running the latest firmware?

Ipod Touch and Macbook Pro Bluetooth problems (ISO4 related)

Hi all,
Before the update I wasn't having any problems, but now when I try to connect with bluetooth I can pair, but it won't connect. It says I don't "have the necessary services" for bluetooth. Any ideas?

I bought a Macbook Pro and ipod touch 3 weeks ago. I am shocked and disappointed to learn that i'm not able to connect these devices via bluetooth. Searching through forums and discussion pages I see that this is by design. I fail to understand why.
On more occasions than I care to comment I have defended Apple products against sceptical attacks that dismiss the company's innovation as pure hype and suggest the proliferation of its 'locked' and 'exclusive' features signal the rise of the 'new dark side'. I have been left with little argument to continue this defence.
I regret that I will seriously reconsider my next purchase of an Apple product.

After recent upgrade to Yosemite on Macbook air bluetooth audio cuts out and associated video stops with audio. Likewise with airplay and Apple TV. I have deleted all my saved wifi connections and restarted numerous times. I do not expect a resolution from the community, but hope to get the attention of Apple engineers. If you are having same problems or have a miracle cure I am all ears.

May start my own thread, but I'm having similar issues.
I've been using an old iMac (running 10.7.5) and Apple TV for years with no issues. Last week I bought a new Macbook Pro running Yosemite and have had audio issues multiple times. The weird thing is that sometimes it works flawlessly, other times (like now) I spend half an hour just trying to get a song to play.
My issues are: When I got to "computers" in Apple TV to stream my music, my music is sometimes chopper or intermittent, and I seen to know when it's going to happen based on the status wheel just before it plays. When I choose a song, the status wheel will spin for an unusually long time, usually an indicator that the audio is either not going to work, or stutter.
When it does finally pull up a song, the playhead sits at the beginning of the song for a good 3-5 seconds before actually playing. Then, when it starts playing, it's all downhill. It will play a few seconds, drop out, play a few more seconds, drop out, and then ultimately the playhead will keep moving across the song as if it's playing, but there's no audio.
Again, this is a new phenomenon never experienced by me. I've tried everything I could think of, some of them all at once:
• restart Apple TV
• restart Macbook Pro
• quite iTunes/open
• turn off Home Sharing on iTunes then reconnect it
• unplugging and cycling both my modem and router
None of these have alleviated the problem.
The odd thing is, like this morning, the audio started up perfectly and never gave me any issues. It wasn't until later in the day that it started. Perhaps after the macbook pro had been put to sleep? Not sure.
Regardless, this is an annoying trait, one that's new to me and my system (as stated, worked flawlessly until my new purchase), and is 100% limited to either a) the macbook pro b) Yosemite or c) both of them.

I have the Numbers-applications on both Mac mini and Macbook Air. My problem is that they don't sync so when I create a Numbers-file on the MacBook while travelling, it will not be on my Mac mini when I get home :(((

Hey iWeb plubishing problems,
I would first check to make sure that you meet the system requirements for OS X to support Documents in the Cloud. For that your Mac’s needs to be running at least OS X Lion 10.7.5 or later to make sure that everything syncs. Take a look at the article below for more information.

A problem to sync emails in Mail app between iMac and Macbook Air

Hello members,
I have had a problem that can't sync emails in Mail app(OSX Mavericks) betwee iMac and Macbook Air. I have iCloud mail account and several Gmail accounts on the mail app.
Is there anyone to help me?

When both are at home on the same network and sharing drives, you can use a variety of tools. Check the App store for fily syncronization. Also, OS X includes rsync if you are a UNIX command line person, and there are shareware GUI's for rsync as well (RsyncX was one I remember). Then there are commercial tools like Chronosync.
Another, albeit to my mind cumbersome way, is to use an airport time capsule and time machine. You use TM to backup each machine, and use the option in TM to browse another TM backup to restore from (eg. come home from a trip, backup the MacBook Air, then log on to the iMac, browse to the MBA backup volume and restore what you recently worked on from there).
Or get a NAS device for home and use that as a common personal form of dropbox. The key would be keeping a neat uniform directory structure for the things you need sync'd - like maybe just the Documents folder & subfolders.

Bluetooth connection between iPhone 4 and MacBook Air

How to enable bluetooth connection between iPhone 4 and MacBook Air?

I used to be able to connect my iPhone 4 with my 3 yr old MacBook Pro using Bluetooth. I used my iPhone's personal hotspot more then once to access the Internet on my laptop when there was no wireless. I don't get why it wouldn't work with my new MacBook Air. That just seems silly. My laptop found my iPhone and was able to add the device, but then my iPhone wouldn't connect. Is there really no way around this??

Mac Mini 10.9.2 and Macbook Air 10.9.2 WiFi SLOW!

So I have tried and tried and tried, to no avail, to solve the super slow connectivity problems on both my Mac Mini and MacBook Air (both running updated 10.9.2).
I have bluetooth disabled on both. I have deleted the "NetworkInterfaces.plist" and "Preferences.plist" files and rebooted. This fixes the slow connectivity, but it reverts back to slow connectivity after approximately 20 minutes!!!!
Speeds after doing the above are 15 Mb/s on download and 50 Mb/s on upload. When the Macs are super slow, boy are they ever, running 0.5 Mb/s download and 15 Mb/s upload.
PLEASE HELP! I'm frustrated as can be. One side note, these are speeds on my connection at work. When I take the MacBook home, my speed is just as fast even when it left the network running slow. What is the matter here and how in the world can I fix it!?

Iphone 5C no longer syncs calendar to iPad and MacBook Air

I am having syncing problems with my iPhone 5C to my iPad and MacBook Air. I installed the latest updates on all three devices yesterday. Now my iPhone will only sync to my other devices when I add or delete an event on my iPhone. It does not sync when events are added or deleted on iPad or MacBook Air. When I add or delete an event on the iPhone then all previous events syncs on my other devices to my iPhone. How do I fix this?

Yes. I have done everything I can find on Internet. All devices are det the
same with iCloud on, all calendars, push is on.

Facetime between iPad2 and MacBook Air worked fine here in the USA. The iPad2 is now in Rome, Italy and we can't connect internationally. We both can hear the caller ringing in, but after accepting the call we cannot connect. No voice, no video.

I am curious if possibly the hotel has some sort of VOIP block on. Have you tried Skype? Did you talk to the hotel staff? My husband is traveling to Milan in a couple of days and I wonder if he will run into the same issue. He has had no problems from Istanbul but he is staying in a corporate apartment there. If you find an answer please post back. Thanks

Mac mini and macbook air startup takes hours

When I restart my mac mini, it takes approximately 16-18 HOURS to boot. During this time the grey screen is displayed with the Apple logo, and the turning wheel is turning and turning but nothing happens.
I updated the mac mini to Mountain Lion.
What is funny, my macbook air has exactly the same problem. So I dont think that this is a hardware related problem. My macbook air takes about 8-10 hours to restart.
Anybody has the same experience or has a solution?
Again, both my mac mini and macbook air have this problem.
Thanks!!

Whew, this is incredible!?
See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...

Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free Disk space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab of Activity Monitor, are there a lot of Pageouts?
Open console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last Startup for clues.

Os x server and macbook air

I have a new Mac Mini Server running OS X Yosemite and the newest version of OS X Server. I also have a new iMac and MacBook Air both running Yosemite, the iMac connected to the server fine. On the other hand the MacBook Air keeps giving me a 9007 error code. I have researched and tweaked settings all over on both the server and the MacBook Air, but still it does not want to join the server. Any idea what I am missing?

One of the more common problems with flaky behavior involves either not setting up local DNS services — trying to use or reference off-LAN DNS servers — or not having the client reference the local DNS server — or referencing other and additional and off-LAN DNS servers — which means DNS verifications are usually one of the first things to try. Or other DNS-level errors. OS X Server really wants local DNS, if you're on a NAT'd network as is typical.
After that, see if the IP network is configured properly. For a simple network, ensure that there's just subnet and just one DHCP server and just one gateway router.
Launch Console.app and have a look at what gets logged, both on the client and on the server. If anything.

For Macbook pro Retina and Macbook Air Users Please Help

Hi
i Want Ask Macbook pro Retina and Macbook Air Users how use this macs both ( Only how use both )
we sit many hours on laptop that will hurt our eyes
what the macbook less strain on eyes
what the best macbook screen not hurt our eyes
sorry my english is not good but i hope you understand me
i want only users how use the both of this macs
thank you

People are different. Not everyone experiences eye strain with an LED/LCD screen, or with a retina screen or any other kind of screen. Some people do.
So no one here can possibly say how you will feel using either one - everyone is different.
You need to find some display models or something and try them yourself and see what you like and how you feel using them. Anything anyone here has experienced is immaterial - all that matters is what you expereince and we cannot predict that for you.
I stare at computer screens all day long, and have done so for many, many years now. I've never had a problem with matte LCD, glossy LCD (like my MBP), CRT, plasma or page white. About the only problem I've ever had is occasionally dry eye, since everyone tends to blink less when concentrating on anything backlit for long periods of time. Simple artificial tears deals with that, and just learning to stagger regular breaks.

Installing Acrobat on iMac and MacBook Air

I just signed up for the online version of Adobe Acrobat. I am having a difficult time installing on my iMac and MacBook Air. I got the "Acrobat 11" DVD to show up on my desktop. And "acrobatpro11_dim" shows up on my software list on the bottom of the screen. But I cannot get Acrobat to install. What do I need to do? Thank you.

Same problem with MacBook Pro
(Mid 2010 model, i7, 8GB Ram, Running Yosemite).
The .app file does nothing when you double click on it, except ask for the local computer password and put an icon on the dashboard that it is running. And it runs forever.
Did a reboot, followed the process again, and got the same result. (insanity, right?)
I have the Trial Version installed. It doesn't know it is now running under a license either.
