How to Upgrade Your MacBook Air


Remove screws. The internals of a MacBook Pro are accessed form the underside of the casing. The bottom is held in place by ten screws, including six 3 mm Phillips screws, two 5.4 mm Phillips screws, and two 7.9 mm Phillips screws.
Lift off the case. Once the screws are removed, the bottom of the MacBook Air case should come off easily, with a quick pull.
Disconnect the accessory ports. Your MacBook Air's current hard drive or solid state drive sits underneath the ribbon that connects your accessory USB, audio, power and DVI connectors. With the bottom of the case removed, unplug the ribbon that connects these accessories to the motherboard.
Remove hard drive screws. Once the accessory ports are disconnected form the board, remove the screws that hold the hard drive frame in place.
Lift the hard drive frame. Make sure that the ribbon that attaches the accessory ports is safely out of the way. If the path is clear, the hard drive and its frame can be lifted from the computer.
Replace hard drive. With the frame and hard drive out of the computer, the current drive can be slid out of the frame and a new one inserted. Original generation MacBook Air models use a zero insertion force (ZIF) connector, so make sure the hard drive or solid state drive you use has this type of connector. Models manufactured after the summer of 2009 feature a more common Serial ATA (SATA) connector. All MacBook Air hard drives or solid state drives must be 1.8 inches wide by 5 mm tall to fit in the frame.
Reassemble MacBook Air. Place the bracket back in the computer and secure it using using the removed screws. Reattach the ribbon connectors for the accessory ports. Replace the back of the computer and secure it with its 10 screws. Boot the computer and install Mac OS X, being sure to test functionality.

How to Test a Power Adapter on a Mac (6 Steps)


Connect the 'Magsafe' end of the connector to the power supply port on the left side of the Mac laptop. Connect the two-pronged power supply to a wall outlet or power strip. The light on the 'Magsafe' connector end should light up. If it does not, proceed to Step 2.
Verify a secure connection. Gently pull out the Magsafe connector, then reconnect it to the laptop. Wait a few seconds for the status light to come on. If it does not, unplug the power supply and try another wall outlet or power strip outlet.
Turn on the laptop. Once the Mac OS X desktop loads, click the 'battery icon' in the upper right of the screen. Look for either 'Battery is charged' or 'Battery is charging' in the drop-down menu. If you see neither of these phrases, proceed to Step 4.
Unplug the power supply again from the wall outlet or power strip. Verify that the 'adapter' plug on the end remains securely in place. The Apple power adapter has a removable plug that allows you to connect the Apple power supply extension cable; check that the removable plug remains firmly in place.
Reconnect the power supply plug to the outlet. If the status light still does not turn on or the 'battery icon' does not indicate a fully charged battery or charging battery, proceed to Step 6.
Unplug the 'Magsafe' end of the adapter from the computer. Reconnect it to another Mac laptop. Note that some Apple adapters have different 'Magsafe' plugs, including barrel-shaped, T-shaped and L-style plugs. Verify that your adapter matches the power supply port on the second Mac laptop before connecting. If the second laptop begins charging, the issue lies with the first laptop and the adapter is functioning properly. If the second laptop fails to begin charging, you'll need a replacement power adapter.
