MacBook Air :: How To Change The Name Of Laptop
Aug 29, 2014
I just set up my MBA uisng the TIme MAchine backup from my old MacBook Pro. In doing so, it gave my Air the same name as I was using for the MBP - which was MY MAcBookPro. I'd like to change the name now seen by other devices, etc.
I can't see how to change that.
Where do I go?

where the *#$& does one change this setting? Right now, if I close the laptop, it goes to sleep. This is bad - for presentations, running iTunes at home... But I can not find where to change this - I've been through every section of Pref's.

Just bought my mac this saturday so I'm still getting used to not having a pc. In the screen saver option, I was wondering if there's anyway to change the speed by which the pictures change one after each other, and if I choose to have the picture on my desktop background change every 30 seconds how bad will that hurt my battery?

Does it matter if I'm charging my MBP even when it has full battery and I am currently using it? I.e. using the charger instead of using the battery? My friend did this with his laptop and when he after 1-2 years tried using the laptop without the charger he got like 30-60 minutes of battery time. I don't want this to happen to my MBP.

Is anyone using Photoshop on a Laptop? If so, what kind of laptop, processor, ram etc? How odes it work for you? Is it powerful and fast enough using CS4?I've been told that a Mac Book Pro 2.2 gHZ works fine for editing photos using Photoshop CS4. I'm looking at buying a new computer and wondering if I can get buy using a laptop as opposed to being tied to a desk.I'm considering a new Apple 13" 2.4 or 2.66gHZ C2D, 4MB with a Nvidia 320M GPU. I like the small form factor and battery life for taking with me in the field. I can always plug in a larger monitor when needed.

I've got a 13" MacBook Pro, 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 machine with a Thunderbolt port and no other video outputs.
Can I connect this laptop to a regular, old-fashioned tube tv? Or can it only connect to an HDMI set?

The only method I have to charge my laptop on my boat is by a 115V outlet. Both the power converter for the Macbook and the wall socket work fine, and so does my battery, but I think that there may just not be enough power. Is there any way to keep charging my laptop? Possibly a product that will produce either enough amperage or voltage to continuously charge my laptop? I'm going to need to be out on my boat for continuous periods of time for a research project.

My MacAir laptop keeps asking for my keychain when I try to retrieve my mail. I purposely kept a sticky note with the PW b/c it had done this before. I used that saved PW and it rejects it!! Consequently, I can't get my mail and I am getting very upset. I've read all of the online "fixes" about going to Applications, then Utilities, keychain access, deleting and trying again.

I have installed MacKeeper, and now am in doubt whether I should lock my Macbook Air (but then I can't erase the contents anymore), erase the contents (but then I am afraid MacKeeper, who is supposed to take a picture and send it, will also be disabled), or do nothing and trust MacKeeper

I did a hard reset of my magsafe charger, changed from the 3 prong to 2 prong charging end. I go into system preferences and do system report -> power and an error message comes up saying that "there was an error while gathering this information."
The laptop will not charge, and battery is at 69% while plugged in. Also, even though the battery is at 69%, it will not turn on without being plugged in to the charger. It also will not wake from sleep. I've restarted several times. What should I do next? I'm hoping that I will not have to buy a new battery.

Both look reasonably priced, and the first link looks simliar to the one that Apple sells.
Just looking for opinions or reviews.
