• Enabling iCloud library fills a storage capacity on macbook air

  So I try to upload my pictures on iCloud to free up storage on my Macbook air.  Besides the fact that this process seems to take forever, I noticed when it goes I'm actually losing space on my hard drive.  This caused the upload stop and gives me the error message indicating that I have no more space on my hard drive and the process cannot continue.  I made sure the storage parameter optimize is on so that I do not download originals to iCloud.  Also, when I turn off iCloud, I don't have storage space.  So I have the feeling that anything that is uploaded is downloaded several times.

  So my question is what is being downloaded, and how to delete to free up more space on my hard drive?

  The use of the photo library of iCloud frees space on your Mac, it uses the same space, as it would if you do not use. So if you don't have enough space on your Mac to fit photos, you'll have enough space to use the photo library.

• 2015 Macbook Air - download speed between 3 Mbps and 100 kbps avg.

  I have a 2 month old Macbook Air El Capitan 10.11.6 running 2015. Since the day I opened the box and connected to the internet, I saw really slow to the Internet until I gave up on streaming audio and video. Connectivity is so bad that pictures on web pages stopped loading.

  I made every difficulty I could find online as well as reminded twice technical support to have them tell me to do things that I've done.

  The last call, I spoke with a supervisor who is convinced that it is my ISP internet despite all the other computers on my home connection and see downloads 10 x higher than my macbook. (40 MB/s to my 3 Mbps), and the fact that I see bad connectivity no matter what network I'm on. Two things, I told the tech support supervisor. I have appointment of Engineering tomorrow where I'll be very interested to hear their ideas and their solutions.

  I have owned 5 5 iPhones, iPads 3, 3 iPods, Macbooks and countless accessories Apple and devices over the past decade. I'm sad to say but my next devices will not be Apple.

  My most current iPhone, which is a year and a half old, is slowly dying as the touch screen loses the changes and external buttons stop working. The two-year mark, it'll be a brick. Just in time for an upgrade of $400!

  Honestly, I'm shocked at how Steve Jobs for this company. I never would have guessed that her crazy quality control and standards have actually been driving Apple light insofar as it goes to the pot, a few years after his death.

  If you have an appointment, they can check the issue.

• Macbook Air color print

  My Macbook Air will not give me the option to print to my HP 5550 color.  I tested the printer test page and this in fact print in color, so I know this isn't my printer.  I've seen this problem on other threads, and I tried many suggestions from users.  I have OS X 10.11.4.  I tried EVERY option on the Printers/Scanners section and there is no color option.

  Any ideas?

• MacBook air crashes, I'm unable to open all the applications but Safari.

  MacBook air crashes, I'm unable to open all the applications but Safari. I can still access the app store to download some antivirus software.  I downloaded AVG hoping it might cure the problem, unfortunately it made it worse.  I got this macbook for about 3 years and I have not had problems.  I recently opened safari on another user and he came with a message saying that you have now received a virus.  I don't know what to do, or how I can fix this problem.  The office is constantly freezing as well, I'm out of options!

  Determine if you can start up your Mac in 'safe' Mode. Read how here: OS X El Capitan: safe mode. If you find that the document confusing or difficult to follow, please write back for instructions.

  After you have determined how your Mac works in 'Safe' Mode, restart normally.

  Regarding your other concerns:

  I recently opened safari on another user and he came with a message saying that you have now received a virus.

  These messages are false. It is a very common scam. Read about it here: Phony 'technical support' / 'ransomware' popups and web pages

  
  

  I downloaded AVG hoping it might cure the problem, unfortunately it made it worse.

  It is to be expected. Don't waste your time with things. "AVG" can be particularly difficult to uninstall, a fact that I learned to evaluate myself. The problem is that its uninstall instructions do not work. I got by deletion of the Mac and restore its contents from a Time Machine backup. You have a backup?

• I can FCPX on a MacBook Air?

  Hello

  In fact, not me, but a friend.

  An artist friend needs a computer for the usual things but I would also like to make small films as she wishes. She doesn't have much money, so, in research on Mac products, which is a stretch but perhaps at hand is the MacBook Air and its

  • Processor clocked at 1.6 GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
  • Turbo Boost up to 2.7 GHz
  • Intel HD 6000 graphics card
  • 8 GB memory
  • 128 GB of storage based on PCIe flash

  It is $999.

  I wonder if it is sufficient to use FCPX on without unpleasant delays?

  What do you say?

  I imagine that it is provided with iMovie and do not be surprised if that would be enough for his application too but always like to take the money and see what are the possibilities of max.

  The best

  Elmer

  I suspect that your friend will be able to do a really nice job on the MBA with iMovie. (Indeed, most of us could and offers a huge bang for the buck.) If she wants to expand his creative power, and decided to spring for FCP X, it will be fine if she's sick and retains its media on an external drive.

  Good luck.

• MacBook Air 5.2 not shut down or restart.

  Hello.

  My MacBook Air 13' with OS 10.11.5 won't close (or restart) - usually. I have had this problem since Yosemite, but don't remember exactly under what version it began.

  To be more precise: current stop, all icons disappear (as usual), but the image of the Office remains active. I can always start other programs is Finder that is affected. Trying to Force Quit Finder does not help. Repeatedly (say 99 / 100 to give a number) it closed normally, but nothing in fact different... Judge without plugging anything if there's a device problem. Saute all automatic connect points. Cleaned cache and preference files dead (using Cocktail).

  What is a way I can follow the Shut Down procedure to see where it falls? Activity monitor?

  Thanks for all advice :-)

  Found the solution in an another tread with (almost) the same Air. Uninstalling the Wacom driver (in my case using AppCleaner) solved the problem. I wasn't the way of editing, since the latest driver for my bamboo tablet was the same version I had installed... (5.3.6-6). maybe a new installation works, but for now, I'm better of without the tablet. Thanks to click!

• MacBook Air ceased to recognize Vizio TV via HDMI

  Hello

  I have been connecting my 13 "mid-2011 MacBook Air to my smart Vizio TV with a bolt of lightning for a HDMI cable for a while now to stream online TV. It's very simple. (Forgive me if these descriptions are a bit off, but to the best of my memory). With connected to the laptop, once that the cable is connected, the TV/HDMI adapter as well as the choice for the choice of display Built In both appeared in the display preferences panel. I choose the HDMI connection, go to the "input" on the TV Panel, select HDMI source, and that's it. Connected. Lately I had trouble with some buffering, and it was suggested to connect the TV as another option in this Panel of preferences on the airwaves. Unfortunately, I can't remember what we called this connection/option. But I did, there are options for the proposed resolution, which I brought from 1080 to 720 (another buffer solution I'd come through). Everything connected very well, and the entire installation sank my program with no buffering either. I felt that I had sent to my problem of buffering. Until...

  The next time I went to connect to TV, he did not appear in the display of the preferences panel. Indeed, the Panel itself was different, simplified. I tried the "hold down Option detect poster", reset the SMC, zap PRAM and nothing.

  For memory, the Macbook Air still connect to my monitor ViewSonic Desktop via a bolt of lightning to the HDMI adapter connected to a HDMI cable. In fact, I thought that it might reset everything that was causing the problem, but it didn't.

  I am trying to determine if the change of the type of things screwed connection. It's the only explanation I can find. Any comment is welcome.

  Patrick

  Info extra, when the cable is connected, the Macbook Air flickers a couple of times, the screen goes black and says "Data recovery" as he usually did, but said then "Signal"!

  Of course, this does not solve my question. I don't know why, it is marked as such.

• How to make the partition of Seagate backup so the Macbook Air?

  I just bought a Macbook Air 13' 2015, I have a seagate external hard drive backup 1 TB plus all my files in it, coming from windows PC and I switch to Mac, when I try to make a partition in disk utility, I can't select an option for partition, its greyed, but I can read/write because of the Paragon for Mac OS driver I want just a partition on my mac with Time Machine backup, but I can't use my external drive for Time Machine it will erase everything on my external hard drive. Thank you

  Unless you need to keep the Windows files you put on the disk and copied to the computer, then I suggest that you simply re - prepare the drive for use on Mac. Because the drive has been formatted on a Windows system you cannot partition via the Mac. But you can re-prep. disk using the partition scheme GUID for the two partitions and format of one of them for MS-DOS or ExFAT using Windows. But as I said earlier, if you do not need to use Windows and want to use for the backup on the Mac, then he prep exclusively for Mac. Use Time Machine backup requires a volume that is at least 2 or 3 times the capacity of the computer HARD drive.

  Drive partition and format

  1. Open utility disk from the Applications\utilitaires folder.
  2. After disk utility charges select the drive (entrance Out-bumpy with of the mfgr.) ID and size) in the list to one side.
  3. Click on the Partition or delete tab in the toolbar utility of disc that is activated. If both are enabled, then choose clear.
  4. Adjustable circular diagram to set the number of partitions if you want more than one. Otherwise leave the default of one.
  5. In the Group dropdown set the GUID partition scheme. Define the type of Format Mac OS extended (journaled).
  6. Click on the apply button and wait for the fact button to activate.
  7. Quit disk utility.

• OfficeJet Pro 8600 - Macbook Pro and Macbook Air does not print

  Products:

  • HP Officejet Pro 8600
  • MacBook Pro (Mac OS X, Version 10.7.5)
  • MacBook Air (OS X, Version 10.8.2)

  Question:

  • Why my Mac initially print fine, but now will not print?

  Full article:

  I have a wireless network in my house that consisted of a 30 MB cable internet, Netgear 900n, HP Officejet Pro 8600, 2 laptops from Dell with Windows 7, a laptop Lenovo with Windows 7 and Dell with Windows 7 trick, all printed matter very well.

  The HP Officejet 8600 was added to my network about 2 months ago.

  I added a Macbook Pro and Macbook Air about 3 weeks ago.  The two Macs printed fine for about a week.  Then suddenly they stop.  I spent about 2 hours on the phone with HP's Service, and finally, they said to my router.  So I called Netgear.  NETGEAR was useless!  They wanted me to accept fees for services before they would even discuss the issue.

  As a result of information provided by the HP support service, and because Netgear will not support their product, I quickly bought a new router - an Apple Airport Extreme.

  Macs will recognize the printer will print if connected via a USB cable, but do not print wirelessly on the Officejet Pro 8600.  The fine impression CPA.

  The frustration that is felt is made up by the fact that Macs printed very well with the Officejet Pro 8600 2 weeks and now the printer shows just "idle"... even with a new router. (see image below)

  Please help, thank you very much for all support.

  As a side note, the representative of the HP Service was very friendly and definitely tried to support the HP product, which is much more I can say about Netgear.

  Thank you

  

  Hello

  More likely a problem with Multicast, which Apple devices are relies on to communicate with the device through the network.

  First try unplugging the router for 30 seconds.

  Connect to the power supply and wait 2-3 minutes.

  Turn off the HP printer and turn it back on, then check all difference.

  If it persists, try to change the configuration of your router as follows

  Note: the settings below are not related with the HP product, I provide you with the steps as a best efforts and those based only on my own knowledge. You can try to change the settings of the router at your own risk:

  1. Open the router configuration page (you'll find listed as the default gateway by clicking the icon on the printer wireless, then print a network configuration report.
     
  2. Click the Advanced tab.
  3. Click the configuration option in the menu, and then click Setup WAN.
  4. Be sure to uncheck the box Disable IGMP proxy transmission and apply the changes.
  5. Click on the LAN configuration on the same Setup menu.
  6. Set the RIP RIP-2 Version and apply the changes.
  7. Restart your router and then check any change.

• Failure screen MacBook Air 13

  Hi all

  Firstly, my apologies because of my English skills.

  I recently had a problem in my Macbook Air 13 (2014). I was on the internet with Safari and the left side of the screen started to Flash some lights. After a minute or two, 15% of the left side went completely wrong. There are a few vertical lines, the colors are completely false, as the pixels with colors, and it looks like a mirror. The left is on the right and the right is on the left. Vertical lines appear also in the first black screen with an Apple, and if I start by pressing cmd + s to try a fsck, this black screen is also affected. However, an external monitor works perfectly well.

  

  MacBook Air 13' 2014

  El Capital, updated.

  What I've done so far...

  Reset the NVRAM (alt-cmd-p-r) made

  Update checked

  Tap the box, and nothing happens.

  Energy is something (alt + ctrl + key lights)

  Material (reset and pressing D) test done. It says nothing about the screen.

  Cleaning with a cloth. Fact

  What is going on?

  I had this personally, you've cracked lcd, under plastic or something that damaged the lcd screen

  You will need to repair store in a proper apple store, expect to pay about $ 200 million because they will have to replace whole upper part that the screen cannot be deleted

• Excessive use of data on the MacBook Air

  Just made the switch from PC to Mac.  MacBook Air (El Capitan) with tons of data at startup.  I disabled automatic downloads in the app store.  What can I do else?  Using 3-400 MB every morning.

  Any client on a network, including wireless clients, you don't know, could be the consumption of bandwidth. Networks Wi - Fi must be protected with WPA2 security. If yours is not, change the setting of security on the access point. If it is already defined in this way, change the password. Make a chain of at least 8 random characters, including uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers. The password is saved in the keychain and you don't have to remember it. in fact, you should not be able to remember.

  You make these changes in AirPort Utility, if the access point is an Apple device or in a web browser otherwise.

  If the network or the password was precarious, and bandwidth utilization returns to normal after it, you can be sure that the problem was caused by intruders.

  But the intrusion may not be the question. Most of BitTorrent, iCloud, Dropbox or another application of data on clouds intervenes when mysterious bandwidth by a Mac using. If you use iCloud, uncheck the box at least iCloud in its pane preferably by car and see if there is no change. If you use a backup software or the third-party network file-synchronization, disable that. If you use a torrent client, remove it.

  Otherwise, if you're running OS X 10.9 or later, you can see which processes are most active on the network.

  Please launch the activity monitor application in one of the following ways:

  ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

  ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

  ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

  Select all processes in the view menu, if not already selected, and also select the network tab.

  Click on the header of the column of bytes transmitted in the process table to sort the entries of the bandwidth. You may have to click twice to get the highest value at the top. What is and what is the process? Repeat with column bytes Rcvd.
