    Fix M1 Air or New One

    I have an M1 Air, and it performs well overall, but the battery is dead and needs to be replaced. The replacement costs $170. Would it be better to replace the battery, or should I just get a new Air? I can get M4 899 + Tax.

    Transferring music files from Export for iTunes playlists to MacBook Air- problem

    I have an old MacBook Pro 2012 with some music playlists that I wish to transfer to a new 2020 Air. Both machines are running Sequoia 15.3 (the Pro using Open-Core Legacy Patcher).

    Best configuration for new MacBook Air

    I’m planning to order a new MacBook Air. It will be used by my son, a student he will mostly be using Office, email, and surfing. Is it worth upgrading to 32GB of ram? I have the M2 MacBook Air with 16GB and I think it’s fine. But with AI etc maybe more Ram is needed. Idk

    Apple is scamming us?

    When apple compares the M4 mba and the M1 mba… they say the M4 is 2x faster but they are using the M4 with 32GB of ram (which includes 10 cores GPU too) against MacBook Air M1 with 16gb of ram and has a 8 cores GPU. Then they say the M4 is 2x faster… But what if we compare the M1 with 16gb of...

    M4 MacBook Air with Nano-Textured Display?

    I have a 16” M1 MacBook Pro, which I LOVE!! However, it’s so chunky and heavy and hard to fit into my favorite bag. My dream MacBook would be the Air with nano-textured display, but wouldn’t make sense to Apple since they want people to jump to the Pro models. Has anyone switched from the 16”...

    I’m trying to replace the broken screen on my macbook air m3 (model: a3113). Everything has gone well, but now I can’t remove the 3 black screws on each hinge to remove the broken screen piece. This is weird since it seems like all 6 screws are stripped and can’t be removed. Each screw basically...

    MacBook Air Purchase

    Merry Christmas. I have a four year old MacBook Pro (with Intel), and I'm considering replacing it soon with a MacBook Air with M3. My MacBook Pro is a 13", and I will probably splurge for the 15" as I no longer use a desktop Mac. Does anyone here know when the next model Air is due...

    Touch Bar should have been ADDED, not REPLACED

    So MacBook's unpopular Touch Bar is completely gone.... I think it was unique gimmick with something potential and it should have been ADDED to the full keyboard, instead of REPLACING the physical keys. What do you think?

    How do you prefer to right-click? Two-finger click or bottom-right corner click?

    I've always stuck with the bottom right corner click, but I've noticed more and more mis-clicks since the haptic touchpads came around. Sometimes it just doesn't register or I have to get a lot further over. Never cared for the two-finder click but it seems more reliable, unfortunately. What...

    M1 MacBook Air display blurry/lined at normal angle
