they will email the tracking number to you. I think they are using DHL.

The senior sales guy in Mac City told me no1 has the 128gb, 11" MacBook Air in stock. Is it true? I was too deeply in love with it oredi after trying it out yesterday n had to take it home even though it's only 64gb.

Also couldn't find any of the accessories like soft case, palm rest, Speck casing n all. Any1 seen them around?

Hey guys! I found an unused 2006 Macbook Pro at my house and thought that I should try and switch to a Mac to see what it's all about.

The reason my dad stopped using it years ago was because there was a problem with the audio. I checked preferences and it seems that no output device is detected, I tried searching for solutions on Google but my problem is: No sound from speakers, headphones, external speakers and I don't have the red light problem. I tried updating the software and installed Snow Leopard but nothing is solving it.

The most recent resource I can find on this problem was at least 2 years ago and it was still unsolved then. So I just thought that I could try my luck here because maybe there's a more recent fix that I am unable to find.

Any ideas guys?

I made a thread in the Technical Support section but was asked to move it here.

try to do some clean up like repair permission
should be improve from there

Try a USB headphone or USB sound card?

Drag the cd/dvd to the trash....it will eject

Have you guys did any protection on your Mac?
Like case, skin and blah
I was thinking putting case or skin on it would makes it getting hot or not.

I bought an 11" 128GB MBA on Nov 18 from Machines, Midvalley. That's a month ago. Didn't you check with shops other than MacCity? For obvious reasons, I'm sure they would tell you that no-one else has stocks if they didn't.

Hope you get your prob solved.

the post u quoted was the answer to the question 'why is there a dvd eject button on the dvd-driveless MBA'

also, wei is the sifu around here. im pretty sure he knows that

Hey guys,

Having some health issues with my macbook white (2009) battery. When I plug the charger in, it seems the health tends to fluctuate to 93-96%. But when I unplug it, its back on 100%. Anyone can explain this? I did a quick search on google and found out that some say you need to "exercise" your battery. So basically, you "use it or lose it". I wouldnt actually mind that but I have my mbw extended to my 23inch dell lcd 24 hours a day and once i plug the power off, the screen display automatically shuts. Anyone can help?

So it is better not to get it?

its true but it's not like it'll burn anything. if u dont want to get scratches, then go ahead and get some protection. no need to worry about heat

He told me Machines oso currently no stock for the 128gb. Anyway, I was too deeply in love by that time n just had to take 1 home immediately. My old MacBook Air 13" is 80gb anyway, so I'm kinda used to working with a small HDD on my Air. I figured I'll be setting up either a Buffalo or WD online storage anyway n I can then have tons of storage accessible from anywhere, anytime.

Any idea where I can get those for cheap?

i just bought my very first MacBook Pro 13" last night, spent close to 8 hours just fiddling with it.

coming from windows,it's a huge departure,IMO

i'm unsure if it's been mentioned(searched,but no results appeared) but do check out it's a web based security app that helps you track a stolen Mac. it costs 20 USD,but until the 1st of January 2011,it's absolutely FOC.

so get it now before they start charging for the app again

i tried it last night,worked great.

im a little taken aback at the lack of software recommendations on the first post.
im not criticising or anything, but it would help mac noobs like myself if there was a list of recommended apps in the first post

right now i've just installed the core basics vlc media player being one of them.


im still looking for a good downloader.
love IDM on windows,but unfortunately there's no mac alternative that i can find. any recommendations?

hiddenapp sounds great. maybe you can write us a short review?

i have to agree about the lack of easy-to-find software recommendations. you can just ask here if u want for a download manager, the best IMO is speed download. if u're a firefox user, downthemall works great. as for me, im satisfied with chrome's built in downloader

Yeah. Chrome for me too.

to write a proper review i'd have to wait til my mac gets stolen

ok,ok..scary thought.

but anyway, they have a test feature on the site and when i tried it, it took a few minutes to ping my laptop after which it took a picture of the user, and grabbed some network information-which i dont really care about

it's also supposed to grab screenshots of what the thief is currently doing,but i didnt wait around long enough for the system to grab that piece of info.

i just know it works as advertised-at the very least i will know what the thief looks like and could* take it to the cops.


*assuming they give a damn to begin with


there's a video demo on the site.check it out for the full set of features(demo)

so no one here uses safari,eh?

been looking around and it seems speed download is the most recommended of all.
if only they had a christmas promo like hiddenapp

Oh man, after a few days with the Air, I think I want to ditch my 2.8 Ghz Macbook pro AND the 11" air.. and get a maxed out 13" air to serve as my primary laptop. It is THAT good..

Low Yat should have them. The USB audio thingies are about RM15-35 each. The ones I've tried so far all work with OS X. I think most USB headphones should work. I use the Logitech one, no probs.
