Early and Late 2011 MacBooks Pro and the Mid 2011 MacBook Air use the same MagSafe port, so you can use the MacBook Pro charger with your MacBook Air

If I upgrade to Mountian Lion on my iMac, will my Macbook Air get the update free of charge?

I have an iMac and a Macbook Air. Both are running Snow Leopard 1.6.8. If I upgrade my iMac, will my Macbook Air get the update free of charge from the Mac App Store? Is it similar to buying an app on one iDevice and getting it free of charge on another iDevice with the same iTunes account?

Yes, indeed it is the same. But you must use the EXACT SAME Apple ID account on both machines for the Upgrade.
Hope this helps

Will a MacBook Air run my SMART board?

I would like to run my SMART board from a computer that is easy to transport. Will a MacBook Air (11") run this program well or should I choose a MacBook Pro 13"?

Will my macbook air continue to backup to the external storage in the sleep mode

will my macbook air continue to back up in the sleep mode

If it's a recent model (mid-2011 or later), then the new Power Nap feature should work, including hourly Time Machine backups, depending on how you set it up. (It probably requires a SMC update, though.)
See Mountain Lion: About Power Nap for details.

Will a macbook air be enough for my needs?

Hello everyone,
I'm looking to get a new mac, and I am in a bit of a dilemma between the MBA and the MBP (non retina).
First of all, let me explain that the reasons for not getting the retina are basically that I feel a bit uncomfortable/scared because of all the "ghosting problems" that one comes across almost everywhere on the web. Even though I know AppleCare could take care of it, etc, I just don't have the time in my daily workload to 1) go somewhere to get help, and 2) be a few days/weeks without a computer.
My current and near future needs are:
1. Development tools
     1a. I will run different development tools/IDEs (not at the same time, of course), like Netbeans, PyCharm, Eclipse, etc. Even Visual Studio 2012 on a           VM/Parallels.
     1b. Compiling time is an issue
     1c. Git(hub)
2. Document/File editing
     2a. For this I'd need something for LaTex, and then Pages, MacVim, TextMate, etc.
3. Web development (no graphics)
     3a. I run a wiki for college which is located in a remote server, a personal web page, and a forum.
4. Browsing/Info, Mail, Newsgroups, Skype, etc
     4a. Typical web browsing for information (no facebook, no twitter, etc), RSS feeds, etc.
     4b. I haven't gotten used to "Mail", so I use Thunderbird for mail and newsgroups
     4c. I need to run Skype
5. Virtualization
     5a. I will run either a VM or Parallels for a virtual windows and a virtual linux machine to test out stuff and use programs which are
          required for the university. I will most probably not have them both running at the same time, but I can never be sure.
6. VPN
     6a. I will need to use a secure remote connection to the university.
7. SFTP, SSH, etc
     To connect to remote servers in the university.
8. Long hours of staring into the screen
9. Portability.
     9a. I don't mind dragging weight with me, but only if I really need it. Sometimes I have to get up and go to another classroom, or just take a break to get a      coffee, etc, and I need to bring my laptop with me since I can't leave it around unattended.
10. Battery life
     Although I will always try to plug in, this will not always be possible and in such cases I need to rely on my laptop to not let me down in times of need.
I don't do any video/music/foto editing. I'm an engineering major specializing in embedded systems but also need to take classes in databases, Java/C# development, etc. I know most IDEs are bloated, and so it is important that I get enough power to run at least one of them at a given time without experiencing lag or crashes.
I've worked on 12,5", 13,3" and 15" screens and I am able to cope with all of those. I have a cheap 22" monitor in the dorm where I can just plug in my computer when I'm home, but needless to say I am barely home...
I know the MBAs have recently gotten a very good upgrade, and are very well built, whereas the MBPs have a CD/DVD drive which I don't need and still use a slightly oldier technolgy. Also, one of my concerns is about the possible "breakability" of the MBA. I don't know how strong it is, but I need to feel comfortable enough to have it in my backpack while taking the bus/train/subway full of people and not being afraid that it'll break because I forgot to put the back between my legs or something like it. With the pro, I'd be pretty conscious of it because of the weight, and also, the big and thick laptop won't just "break" ;-)
I'd love to get some input/ideas on this to try and make the wisest decision possible.
Thanks for your time.

Will new Macbook Air display browser in 1080x1920 on HDTV?

I am about to buy a Macbook Air. A primary use for this will be to 1) Mirror browser content to an Apple TV or 2) Use Apple TV as an extended display. I understand the extended display feature may come in Maverick.
I have a MacBook Pro that will not screen mirror. It was 11 months old and Apple said the hardway would not support it. They almost lost my future business with that. AirParrot does not work on it either.
When I use an iPad III the screen ratio on the HDTV connected to AppleTV is 4:3 ratio when displaying an app or browser content. For some apps like netflix, the iPad goes full screen.
So, for those of you using the new Macbook Air, can you tell me if it will mirror a browser session to Apple TV connected HDTV and will it be in a 16:9 (1080x1920) format?
I really want it to act like an extended desktop so I could be displaying a browser based TV show on the TV and use the screen on the airbook to do other stuff. Does anyone know if that will be possible on the MBA or is that functionality reserved for better hardware?
Is anyone having issues with the mew MBA that seem to be common place?
Finally, I am getting the 13" model, 256GB but wonder about upgrading to the i7 processor. Its not a primary machine, no high CPU video editing but lots of screen mirroring of HD content. I do have a new Airport Extreme that can use 802.11 AC.
Thanks,
Kevin

Umm...
Every laptop has 6bit colors. There aren't any 8bit laptop panels that Apple could use infact. Except for some very new 17" ones...
The thing is, 8 bit panels use more power and are regarded by most of the industry as overkill for laptops.
Anyway I repeat, there are no 13" 8bit panels in existence.
You want 8 bit color? Plug in a CinemaHD or a Dell VA or IPS panel.

Will the macbook air 2GB be able to play World Of Warcraft: Cataclysm?

Would the new MacBook Air 13" 2010 with 2BG of memory be able to run World of Warcraft: Cataclysm smoothly -on lower settings, of course-?
Thanks for any help you can provide.

If game play is your primary usage I'd even consider PC laptops. Just cheaper and beefier hardware in general. Odd to talk about Dell on apple board but Alienware makes good game laptop. http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=5548&review=alienwarem11x+ultraportable+gamingnotebook
Even Macs show faster graphics under bootcamp windows. For example my mac pro with nvidia quadroFX5600 shows 24fps on mac side and 35fps on pc side when I test it with cinebench r11.5. I don't know why but when it comes to openGL graphics performance PCs still has the edge. It could be that GPU drivers are more tightly optimized on PC side (directly by gpu manufacturers) or that MacOS X uses GPU more aggresively for basic OS function (quartz extreme, openCL...), which I don't mind.
Anyway even if you go with Macbook air, you should try out the same game on bootcamp windows side to get a bit more oomph out of it.

Bag that will carry MacBook air 13 AND iPad

Ok. Let me preface this by saying I'm very very particular about my bags and what I'm looking for may not exist but I'll give it a shot. Here's what I'd like:
1. A backpack format (although messenger or sling would be ok)
2. Holds MacBook air 13" and iPad
3. Laptop portion is made for the air (I.e. not "for laptops up to 15", etc.)
4. Has several small compartments for cables, power brick, mouse, etc.
I've looked all over and can't seem to find anything that fits this bill. There are a TON of bags for larger laptops and some even have iPad slots but I haven't seen one for an air and an iPad.

Will syncing macbook air to iphone sync all photos

my macbook air has died but i have synced it to my iphone recently and between the sync and now photostream should have picked up any photo's. My question is do i need to go to the trouble and expense of a data recovery company when i just want to retrieve my photos. Will they all be on my phone, i dont know how many were on the mac but there are over a thousand on the phone now so it looks likely

If they are all on your phone you can use an app like PhotoSync to send them wirelessly to any new computer. iTunes will only transfer Camera Roll photos to a computer, not photos synced to your phone from a computer (i.e., the photos in Photo Library). An app like PhotoSync will transfer all your photos (including Photo Library). As for you question about whether or not all your photos are on your phone, no one here can know that. If you synced all your photos from your computer to your phone before it crashed then they should be, assuming you had enough space on your phone for them.

Why will my macbook air not save a word document without word freezing up and not responding?

I recently got a Macbook Air. Whenever I try to save a word document I get the colored pinwheel. After the colored pinwheel appears, I go into force quit and see that Microsoft Word is not responding. This happens every time I try to save a word document. To test the issue I tried to save a blank word document to see if I was just trying to save too much. Even with the blank document I got the pinwheel and the application was not responding. I have had macs before and none of them have had any issues. Please Help!

Try using Disk Utility (in Applications > Utilities folder) to Repair Permissions.

I will get macbook air soon , 13" maybe 11". now is the intel hd 3000 good for gaming ?

i am playing this Game Dragona PH , is the system requirements match up ? in MBA ?
can i play it smoothly ? can the intel hd 3000 manage the game ?
heres the system requirements .

13 in MBA (and MBP for that matter) has only "integrated graphics". The graphics chip is part of the CPU, and shares memory with the system/CPU. When this integrated graphics chip heats up, the CPU sometimes has to throttle-back ALL operations to reduce damaging heat.
15 in MBP uses "discrete graphics". This means there is an additional graphics card separate from the CPU, with its own heat-sink and memory (it *may* share share *some* system memory). The heat from a discrete card has far less effect on a CPU so the entire system can stay running at high processing loads.
Games tax the graphics chip, so slow-down the 11/13 MBP/MBA in more because it must throttle back under heavy graphics load.
Regardless of the 11 or 13 system's ability to keep up with today's games, future games will likely tax/heat-up the system in the future.
This in not a "final" answer, I know. Just some facts to consider.

Macbook Air 2011 CPU Maxes Out then Overheats and Shuts Down...

I've been having this problem for a while now but have learned to deal with it with SMC Fan Control to basically keep my fans maxed out at all times. This is obviously not ideal.
The problem is that at any given time some small, random task in activity monitor shows CPU usage that is very high, often at least 50% CPU and other times as high as 120% It has happened with the tasks like dock, safari web content and virtually any other task you can imagine.
For example, I just tried emptying my recycling bin and it hung half way through then my computer shut down. What is going on here?
Details:
- Macbook Air mid-2011 running Mavericks
- Never have more than one app open at any given time, usually just Safari with about 5 tabs, max
- 3rd party applications running in background include Dropbox, Copy, Backblaze, Flux, Sophos anti virus, Jumpcut, Caffeine and that's it
If I'm doing something like a Time Machine backup, I have to disable Wifi, max out the fans and only then will the Macbook Air remain cool enough to complete the backup, otherwise the Time Machine process maxes out the CPU, overheats and shuts down. This happens with virtually everything now.
How can I start trouble shooting this problem? I've run the hardware and system repair checks with no results, done an SMC reset, etc.
This really seems like a software issue more than anything, like something related to the way tasks/processes are handled...any ideas anyone? This is such an annoying problem!

Do the problems also occur in "Safe Mode"?
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

Macbook air or Macbook pro retina?

I am in the market to buy a new laptop. I have been thinking about it for quite some time now. However, I just cannot seem to decide between the 13 inch baseline Macbook Air (possibly 8gb ram upgrade) and the 13 inch Macbook Pro with Retina Display baseline. I will be using this computer to surf the web, watch youtube, sometimes edit photos with aperture, maybe use imovie sometimes, and play the occasional video game. This is my forst mac by the way. Also, i am going away to europe this summer and would like to have a laptop with me. Should i wait for the refresh in june? Will they refresh in june? Will the Macbook air be able to suit my needs, will it be fast enough? Which would you recommend? Thank you so much.
McGregor

I do have the lastest Macbook air 13" (8 gig RAM) since 5 months. I use it for pretty much the list you stated plus software dev on XCode and VisuaStudio in a virtual machine.
Don't get me wrong, Macbook air is wonderfull / near perfect machine and you can't really go wrong with it. No mather your decision, if you get a Macbook Air, upgrade to 8 Gig of RAM. Latest OSX take 2 Gig or RAM right at startup and you will easily get RAM at 4 Gig with couple of web browser and others. Don't even hesitate, get the 8 Gig upgrade so you will support next OSX version easily.
As for speed the MBA will not make you feel you are waiting for it. For comparison, my main windows PC is a Quad Core i7 with watercooled overclock to 4.8Ghz, 16 Gig RAM and OCZ Vertex 256 SSD drive. Both (PC and MBA) feel equaly snappy and fun to use. The Macbook Air is powerfull and snappy computer and it will get tasks done in a breeze.
That being said, I ordered a Retina Macbook Pro 15" last week that I will received tomorow. I did it mainly for two things. The retina display and size of the display. Once you tasted that retina panel you simply have hard time getting back.
But if you are on a budget, and didn't get retina addicted, you will NOT be dissapointed with a Macbook Air (8 Gig) . It is such a good balanced Ultrabook. But for a +200$ price point, considering 8 gig ram upgrade on 13" MBA, I would recommed the MBP retina 13" too.
Good luck !

MacBook Air and/or iPad?

Hi! My dilemma is that i already own an iPad 2, and i need to replace my old MacBook Pro (2007). I'm tempted to buy a MacBook Air, but i wonder if it will be worth it to keep the iPad or will the macbook air be enough for my portability/power needs. I'm thinking about selling my iPad in order to have more money for the MacBook Air. Should i have both devices or just one?

Since I got my MBA I rarely visit my iMac any more unless I am doing a project. Mail, the internet, short letters, games are mostly on the MBA. I love it because of the keyboard but my wife doesn't even want to use it because she loves her iPad sooo much. They are different but since you had a MBP you need to make that decision for yourself. When buying the MBA keep in mind you CAN'T upgrade the RAM after purchase. You can however replace the SSD very easily.

Is the macbook air's adapter universal?

I am going to travel to dubai will my macbook air work normally or do I need to buy a 220V adapter?

It's possible the configuration of their wall outlets are different than those in the US. So you will need something to adapt your plugs to their outlets.
