Merge with Macbook air - problems

Hello

Setup

MacBook Air running 10.8.4

VMware Fusion 5.03

Question

When launching VMware Fusion and by selecting the settings of the Virtual Machine-> USB and Bluetooth, I expected to see 'automatically' integrated iSight camera in option to pass through to my VM (Windows 7) However, only 2 items listed have been

  • USB Bluetooth Apple host controller
  • Apple internal memory card reader

To check on Google people see the "Apple iSight Camera" as a merge option, but it does not appear as an option for me.

Search

I searched Google gih and low for an answer and can't seem to find it

I downloaded and installed the drivers from Windows ready for when I get the camera view by fusion - http://www.techrockdo.com/technology/isight-camera-in-windows-on-vmware-fusion

I checked for the Root permissions - http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC & docType = kc & docTypeID = DT_KB_1_1 & externalId = 2004687

Checked the VMware KB - http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1027964

I also plugged in a USB headset and then who appears in the options available under USB and Bluetooth and is seen by the virtual machine and works well from the small amount of tests, I have undertaken.

I checked the camera works well in the native operating system and that fact in a plethora of applications

I'm not to give up easily, but seem to be running out of ideas now, oh and hair...

Thanx

Tony

What is an air of 2013?  The iSight camera is not a USB - PCIe device.  VMWare is working on that.

  • Can I use your Apple TV with MacBook Air

    I use a MacBook Air, 13-inch, mid 2013, OS X El Capitan 10.11.6. I am interested in Apple TV. With this product I was able to connect my Epson EB - S18 projector to my Mac in order to project movies that I bought on iTunes on my wall of the apartment? Would be there is always a problem to play these movies 'protected' outside the computer itself? Must they be downloaded in SD and not HD? Can I use a patch to connect my Mac to the Thunderbolt port to the projector via the HDMI port? Can I use a patch to connect the VGA cable to the port on the computer to the projector? Please notify.

    Thank you very much.

    Can I use your Apple TV with MacBook Air

    Yes! AirPlay with an AppleTV is the easiest to use and less complicated solution.

    SD / HD makes no difference.

    You will only be able to enjoy the full quality of an HD movie with a better projector however. This model projector is not really intended for presentation of home theater. It will work well. As you can imagine that there is no upper limit on the amount, you can overlook these things, but $2000 is going to buy a nice home theater projector these days. A few years ago, you would need to spend $ 50,000 or more.

    Would be there is always a problem to play these movies 'protected' outside the computer itself?

    No, not if you bought (or leased) from iTunes. They have to play on any device compatible iTunes. You can even use AirPlay to distribute it to your AppleTV from an iPhone.

    Can I use a patch to connect my Mac to the Thunderbolt port to the projector via the HDMI port?

    Yes.

    Can I use a patch to connect the VGA cable to the port on the computer to the projector?

    Not without a converter. Avoid using the VGA if possible. It's a terribly outdated and generally horrible alternative to any digital standard. Since your MBA has a port Thunderbolt, and if your projector has a HDMI input, buy a cheap (± $10) Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter cable. But AirPlay is preferable to a wired connection.

  • iCloud not synchronized completely with MacBook Air

    I'm running OS X 10.11.6 El Capitan on my MacBook Air (end 2013) and the iOS9.3.5 on my iPhone 5. Have also, incidentally, Apple Watch. Use iCloud for Notes, but could not get the Notes appear on my Mac. Signed Notes and back with Apple ID on the Mac, but the cursor just whirs around. Have the same Apple ID on all devices. All the other things iCloud on sync phone perfectly with Mac, calendar, e-mail etc. Have 200 notes or that I used to use it all the time on the Mac and the phone, so its really frustrating that I can't access it from the Mac.

    Research in the system for software services log I see that sort of thing:

  • Start to 2008 MacBook Air problem!

    Hey all! I recently bought a MacBook Air in 2008. When I went to power it the Apple logo and the loading bar started to load. But he only go about 5% and then it turns off, it makes a little noise of "pop". Any help appreciated. Thank you!

    You will need to use the original installation media (10.5 Leopard) and see if you can start the MBP with the DVD.  If you proceed with the installation of os x.

    When you see a menu bar, click on utilities.

    In the drop-down list, select disk utility.

    Run disk utility > first aid > verify and repair.

    If the Player cannot be repaired, it must be replaced.

  • How to (partially) sync with macbook air iMac

    I have a 27 Imac at home and a macbook air for on the road. I would like to sync (automatically), live cable?

    Connect to your local network. Enable both file sharing in sharing preferences. You can transfer data between the two using Drag and Drop or file third-party synchronization utility such as SyncTwoFolders. Or you can configure a DropBox account. Keep all common files stored in your DropBox account. Both computers then running DropBox and can transfer to and from the current folder. DropBox offers an initial free 2 GB of storage.

  • I have phone sync with macbook air

    I want to remove photos from my i-phone, without deleting my MacBook air.   Is this possible?     At the present time, when I delete a photo from my phone, it deletes my macbook air.   Anyway around this?

    Thank you

    You synchronize using iCloud? iCloud is a synchronization system, not an external 'hard drive '. If you remove them on your device, they will remove icloud. To increase the available space, go settings/iCloud/Photos and select optimize iPhone/iPad storage. That will reduce the space required by 90% when it is fully effective.

    If you don't use icloud, how you sync the computer and the phone?

  • Stop problem with MacBook Air

    I have the 2012 of 11 inches, i7 2 GHz Air running OSX EL Capitan 10.11.5.

    Since the installation of El Cap, I got bad to close the Air. The toolbar at the top (the one containing the logo apple etc) goes away after I clicked on "shut down" and freezes the process of closing. So I should stop by pressing the button "on" for several seconds. I'm fairly certain that there is no APPS open and I tried different remedies offered on the internet.

    I am now at a loss what to try!

    Everyone knows about this problem?

    Does anyone know a cure?

    Thanks in advance!

    Once you start the shutdown process by clicking the Apple logo in the Menu and then "stop" bar in the resulting drop-down list, you should see:

    Do you see that?  If so, exactly what to do and what do you see?

  • Wifi MacBook air problems.

    I run to OS X El Capitan 10.11.5. Since the upgrade to El Capitan, I have Wifi connectivity problems.  My wifi turns either on a random or it will appear under the name now, but I wont have all internet pages will be just stuck on loading. This occurs only at home, I think not that the fault lies with the router because as I said I have the same router with respect, before moving to El Capitan and before the upgrade, I had this problem. This has become incredibly annoying because I have to turn the wifi and turns off again and sometimes the wifi is just stuck on being extremely slow to the point where even my phone a much faster connection. I really need a fix for this because it became unbearable.

  • Photosmart C309g with MacBook printing problem

    My MacBook using mac OS 10.5.8 and I am trying to print with an HP Photosmart C309g-m. I have been through the help files and tried all the solutions listed without result. The printer thinks it is connected and saying he is the print job, but he does. Finally, the printer cancels the job. Meanwhile in the print queue, my computer is still sending data. I downloaded the driver this morning, which is current. I use a USB connection not wireless.

    Any help appreciated. Thank you.

    We will restore the print system:

  • Load OSX on 2014 macbook air problems

    Hey guys, dude this device telling me that he had bought earlier by someone who had deleted the info private and he has said that he needs to enter the password to access the desktop computer. The thing is, no matter what he tried it is not on the desktop, I think the OSX could have been deleted accidentally or not. I also think that the password which he received from the seller is a hard drive password and not osx password. As shown in the first screenshot, looks like this unit came with Yosemite and wants to go to Apple to reinstall, but when I try to do is to show an error. I tried to do a restore, but get a display of the error "Startup disk cannot be used as a source of food.

  • Not an Airprint printer can be configured with a new Macbook Air?

    Recently purchased a new Macbook Air.   Can it be configured with an older printer on our WiFi network that has no Airprint?

    Sure. At the end of the day, COMMAND + P (or CTRL + P in Windows) always sends this same basic command PRINT to the default printer. Any printer that is.

    The only problem is the printer driver software. If the manufacturer of the printer has written a driver that works with MacBook Air, download it, install it and make your old default printer.
