MacBook Air :: Both Software And Accessories Are Make For The Air?
Oct 29, 2010
First forum post, and my question: what items would you recommend for a Mac newbie or returnee thinking of buying a 64gb 11" MBA? Software that is small in size, free or cheap but very useful (esp. utilities, productivity, games and music/video). Accessories that are small, light, and a good value. I am particularly interested if the Apple Superdrive is the best out there for the money, and multipurpose usb/sd hubs.Another way of looking at it is, if you were buying a 4gb/64gb Air for a friend and had $200 to outfit it, what would be essential enough for you to include?

I got a good deal on a MBA rev B ($980 total), which I'm really happy with. The only accessory bought was a case.
From your experiences do you guys recommend that I get the super drive (=10% of MBA cost), the extended Apple Care (=20% of MBA cost), or maybe another accessory I'm not mentioning?
I'm just not sure if they're worth the extra cost.

I mean obviously a bag is necessary to carry it around but which accessories do you use besides laptop cases, bags? Is a keyboard protector, screen protector, stand, cooler, graphic vinyls etc... necessary? There are plenty more accessories. Which ones do you use and think is a must?

What I mean by essentials are things to get for my MacBook Pro that I should definitely get now. Obviously, I would get a sleeve and possible bag for it but anything specific that is a definite buy.I am getting a 24" monitor to go with this as well so I am obviously planning on purchasing the keyboard and mouse and one of the writing pads like Bamboo.

my mac seems to be slower as the days go by. on the start up screen when i first got it i can type in my password and when it goes to my desktop the macintosh hd icon is already there and the tool bar at the top with the battery and time is already there too. but now when i log in it seems to take time to load the macintosh icon and the tool bar. i also bought AirPort Express the little accessory that plugs into the wall and lets you get wi fi off of and wireless air tunes and printing.

Buying the new base Mini this weekend and want to connect it to my 1080ptv. I plan on doing so via HDMI (so I need a DVI adapter?) and audio through a TosLink cable. Can someone please link me what accessories I would need to buy from Monoprice so I can have everything ready when my new baby comes home?

I have ordered a MBP retina few days ago. Since it is such a perfect laptop, I don't think there are necessary accessoies for MBP like a case or mice etc. However, I still want to figure it out.

tly in the process of buying a mac, and I just wanted to know if there are any accessories out there that I should know of, but don't.
The mac I'm buying is either the new MBA 13 with 2.13 GHz and 4 Gb (I have to consider if I want to use so much on a computer) or a base MBP 13.

Ever see the clear replacement door for the G5? Not the clear air deflector, but an actual replacement door that is clear. Anyone know where to find it?

I bought a MBP and now want to create a office setup where I could use larger monitor, an external keyboard, and mouse for using the same MBP.
1. How to do this setup ? Is hooking an external monitor to DVI port to MBP good enough ? Can I use usb keyboard and mouse to connect to MBP ? Anything else ?
Can you please share your setup and anything that I should take care of.
What's a good place to buy these accessories ?

I was trying to delete partitions on my hard drive to get it ready for a clean Yosemite install. All of a sudden the screen went grey and after a considerable amount of time I turned off the MacBook Air and then turned it back on. A grey screen with a folder and '?' showed up. I don't have much experience with Macs, but I know enough that something happened to the Boot files. I don't have any other Macs. Is there a way to make a bootable drive on a PC? I have saved HD images on a portable hard drive along with time machine backup...I was running Lion OS

Here's my set up:
Macbook Pro (Early 2010) running 10.6.5 w/ 2.56GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 500 GB HD w/ 290GB free space.
There have been times when I'm just running iTunes and the wheel of death will come on, or i'm on Chrome or FF w/ 2 other programs running and will get the wheel again and will get locked for about 1-2min. Before I hadn't had too many problems on a different MBP with lower specs, this one is higher yet is slow. I don't understand what the problem is because I also monitor my CPU and when it locks up the CPU remain at normal. Also, flash has always been lagging on here but will freeze for 5-10sec while audio keeps playing. I possibly think it's the Hard Drive which is a WD Blue Scorpio w/ 5400 RPM.
