Even in the streamlined, lightweight, look-ma-no-moving-parts world of MacBook Air, devices sometimes behave strangely (or not at all). The generic troubleshooting and repair techniques that I cover in the past couple of chapters can solve all kinds of problems. However, there are always specific problems that require specific solutions. This chapter takes you through a few of the most common ones.

Your MacBook Air Says You Don’t Have Enough Memory

Your MacBook Air Runs Slowly

Your Trackpad, Mouse, or Keyboard Doesn’t Work

Your Display Is Garbled

Your MacBook Air SuperDrive Won’t Work

You Have Trouble Accessing a Wireless Network

Your Sound Isn’t Working
