Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade. I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)
Are others having the same problems?

Try this. Worked for me.
- turn off your router
- turn off you Mac's after removing all available printers
- turn off all iDevices
- do a factory reset of your printer remove all cables min. 30 sec.
- turn on your router first
- ran the network set up wizard
- give your printer also a new name like "DeskJet 2015"
Something which you don't have used before.
- turn on your Mac's and add your printer
- turn on your iDevices at least.
Should work after these steps.
It worked for me including all iDevices.

Camera not working for macbook air

It's a macbook air A1370, iOS 10.8.3. The build-in camera is not working. Both Facetime and photobooth show that the camera is not connected. I checked the system info, under the usb session, the build-in camera is there. I followed some posts and reset the SMC, not helping.
What should I do?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Yes. Follow the instructions for reinstalling your Mac OS X. All necessary drivers are automatically installed by the OS X installer.
tdingsh wrote:... Apparently ... computer is not detecting the in-built camera ...
By using your Mac''s (option) > System Information... menu command, you can be certain whether your Mac detects its camera.
When the System Information window opens, click on "USB" under "Hardware" in the sidebar. Then look in the USB Device Tree window pane that opens when you select "USB". Click ALL right-facing triangles ( ▶) so they point down (▼) and reveal all individual items.
If your camera is nowhere in the USB Device Tree window pane, your Mac does NOT recognize the cam.
Resetting the SMC using the instructions for your specific Mac model may restore camera function.

Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3.

Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3 on my 27" iMac.
When searching in Apple Mail, sometimes a get a few results (with many missing), and sometimes no results at all.
I had absolutely no problems before with Snow Loepard.
I have reindexed mail and my startup drive. I have followed discussions regarding this matter and tried everything - a waste of time.
This is VERY serious for me - I have many thousands of messages that I archive and need to reference for work and clients, and now I cannot find them.

I found out that I needed a $100 mini displayport to dual-link dvi adapter to make my $30" cinema display work with my macbook pro
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter?fnode=51
When I found out that solved the problem, I took it back because that was too expensive for a stupid adapter, and it still didn't work perfectly.

"Insufficient Space" error preventing app download from App Store for MacBook Air 2013

Hi,
I am using a MacBook Air 2013 model with OS 10.9.4 (Mavericks). It has a 120 GB HD with about 17 GB of free space.
I am unable to download from the Mac App Store as I get an 'insufficient space available" error whenever I try to purchase a larger App (> 2 GB).
After looking through the forums I can confirm the following:
- Both the Finder and "About This Mac" report that 16.5 GB of space is available.
- I have toggled Time Machine and restarted my computer with it "On" and "Off".
- The application description does not mention needing more space for installation (specifically I am now trying to download BioShock 2 which needs about 9 GB).
I tried to contact Apple Support for the App Store and they informed me it was a hardware issue. I do not have Apple Care and do not think this is a hardware issue so would rather not pay the 20$ for support.
Cheers,

If you're trying to add a large amount of data all at once, and you get an alert of insufficient space, then from the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Time Machine
If the padlock icon is closed, click it to unlock the settings and authenticate. Turn Time Machine OFF, then back ON and close the preference pane. Restart the computer. Test.

What office program is best for macbook air 2013

what office program is best for macbook air 2013

To create some sanity here:
If you are going to share files with family, friends, and coworkers Microsoft Office is the obvious and easy (though expensive) choice.
If you are trying to save money and still remain compatible with friends LibreOffice is free and can read/write Microsoft Office files nearly perfectly.
Another free choice is Apple's iWork suite (you'll have to download it from the App store because it isn't pre-installed) Numbers, Pages, and Keynote. These programs read Microsoft documents mostly accurately but not quite as well as LibreOffice and export to Office compatible documents. But neither LibreOffice nor iWork saves in Microsoft formats by default which means you must remember to export them. That can be a problem.
In terms of ease of use I give iWork a slight edge over the other two. In terms of doing annoying things I don't expect, Office is the hands down winner.

Sound not working on MacBook Air 2013

Hi y'all,
Thanks in advance for the help.
Mid 2013, 13" MacBook Air that just had the circuit board replaced for an issue where the battery wasn't being recognized.
The sound on my computer isn't working still after I tried SMC reset, PRAM reset, and reinstalled the software. Anyone out there with some good ideas?
I didn't have headphone plugged into the machine when it was shut down, and this is the first time it's happened.
Please help!

You can try this. Go step by step and test.
1. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
    Audio Devices window
    Side Bar
    Click the Built-in Output.
    Make sure that no box is checked under “Mute”.
2. System Preferences > Sound> Sound Effects
    Play sound effects through:
    Select "Internal speakers" and then back to "Selected sound output device".
3. Launch iTunes and play a song through headphone and adjust the volume

Airport Express not working for MacBook Air, ok for iMac

I connect to the internet via wireless broadband; the ethernet cable from the broadband antenna plugs into my Airport Express router. I run both my 27" iMac desktop and my 13" Mac Book Air off the Airport Express router. To the best of my knowledge, nothing has changed with my internet provider's settings.
Since Friday, the MacBook Air internet connection barely works; if a page loads, it takes forever (and I have a very fast broadband connection.) Checking the same connection on the iMac has no delay and loads instantly. On the laptop, if the page does load, and I click a link on that page, the link takes me to a new page requesting me to log in to my internet provider, or just fails to load. I get lots of "page failed to load; interneet connection was reset....".
I have checked network settings on both machines and they appear to be just fine. I have run diagnostics and it shows everything working fine.
I ran Disk Utility (permissions repair and verify disk) and have no problems.
I have tried restarting the laptop several times.
Software is up to date.
I don't think it's the internet server or the connection since it's working on the desktop Mac.
I'd appreciate any suggestions or things to try; I read about doing soft and hard resets but am reluctant to try that since Airport is working for the desktop computer just fine.

Mail shows wrong creation dates for some older messages after upgrade to OSX 10.9.

Searching for old mail messages I find that the creation date on many old messages is now incorrect after upgrading my system to OSX 10.9.
Searching mail for messages from a person now results in threads that include unconnected messages and messages that are out of date order making the thread difficult to follow.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks.

Is airplay mirroring not working for macbook air?

Bought my macbook in March of this year and Apple TV last month. Upgrated to mountain lion and airplay mirroring is producing a black screen. Anyone know how to get this working

I had same problem: Mid 2011 MBA, AppleTV2 all updated. Both were on 5GHz network, with failure to connect or lag (delays of up to 20secs in video updating). I changed the AppleTV to 2.4GHz, and the MBA to 2.4GHz, it worked more consitently. I tried audio only and it worked perfectly with both using 2.4GHz, then reactivated video, which then worked better but not perfectly. Have now changed MBA to 5GHz network and it's working perfectly.
I believe this is because I'm streaming in HD to the MBA from webtv (on 5GHz), which is then streaming out the MBA (on 5Ghz) to the router and then from the router on 2.4GHz to the AppleTV. This helps to divide up the (radio) bandwidth.

After upgrade to OSX 10.9.2, my wifi is not working

after I upgraded to OX S 10.9.2, my wifi is not working properly. When I connect to the internet via wifi, the wifi disconnects in seconds.
But if I connect to the internet on my phone, it works.
What can be the problem?

You might:
Try these in order:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
     after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
     Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

IPhone does not connect to new Macbook Air 2013

Greating from Brazil,
I have an iPhone 4 and have always used to the USB cable to connect it to my macs. It works perfectly fine in onther 4 macbooks: one macbook white 2007, one macbook pro 2010 and a macbook air 2012.
Now I have the brand new macbook air 2013 and the iPhone is the only USB device I can not connect to it (all my external hard drives, wireless headphone work just fine). What happens is that when I connect the iPhone, it repeatly plays the sound as if it was connected, then it plays the sound as if it was disconnected.
What could I do to make it work?
Thanks
Gilson
