In my opinion its not really worth it to even try and install FCS2 on a MacBook Air. Sure you could access any CD/DVD media via remote disk from the other computer, but once you get it on the Air you open up a whole other can of problems.
The MacBook Air is NOT built for video. The processor speeds are low, the system drive is small (FCS2 takes up something like 50-60GB of space).
But the biggest reason is that there is NO firewire on the MacBook Air. Yes there is USB, but USB just does not cut it for video, it simply cannot sustain constant data rates like firewire can and this can cause all sorts of problems when editing.
In my opinion upgrading the ram on your MBP is your best option. Any MBP is going to handle video better then a MacBook Air.
Ram is fairly cheep check out crucial.com

It may not be the itunes application. It could be a corrupt iTunes liberary or even a problem with quicktime.

I’m excited to try out the live multi cam editing feature that lets you record up to 6 streams if live video chat on the phone.
It really is going to make multi cam edits of live events much easier, and you can even stream your live multi cam edit to a website using mobile me.
Now I just need to order some steadicam attachments for the iPhone.

[Mike Cohen] “offer them expert training for $5000/day. “
I agree, and when they ask why so much more for the training simply explain that if you are going to be training someone who would be in competition with you then to protect yourself you must charge that much more.

[Eric Peterson] “Unplug power cable from computer. Let sit for 15 minutes. Plug everything back in”
You are referring to a power management reset and not all macs reset the power management by resetting ungluing them
[Cone Chamberlain] “I’m on a G5 PPC”
If your G5 is a tower then to do that reset you actually have to press a small button inside the machine.
Have you tried the drives on another machine?

It is unlikely that they all went out but it is posible. That is why you need try a completly different drive on your computer (one that has never been conected before). And also try your drives on another computer.
I’m betting your drives will show up on a different computer and that it is an issue with your computer.

[Cone Chamberlain] “Have you tried connecting the drives to other ports on the computer? YES”
And did they show up at all then.
[Cone Chamberlain] “Have you tried connecting other drives to the computer via the same connection? YES “
And did that drive show up?
[Cone Chamberlain] “Have you tried connecting the drives to another computer? NO I ONLY HAVE ONE COMPUTER “
If you know anybody at all with a mac call them up and ask if you can try connecting your drives to their computer.
If other drives show up on your computer then it is most likely an issue with the drive.
If the drives show up on another computer then it is most likely the computer, and you will want to have it looked at by a Apple Technician.There are no “technical solutions” to your “artistic problems”.
