  • I have a new mac mini with mt lion where is the os on this computer

    I have a new mac mini with mt lion where is the os on this computer. It came with Mt Lion on it

    You have a couple of options for booting OS X.
    One is to use the OS X Recovery Disk Assistant to copy the Mountain Lion Recovery HD to a USB thumb drive. A 4GB thumb drive is sufficient as the Disk Assistant only needs 1GB.
    A second option would be to use a cloning software like SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to clone your existing Macintosh HD to an external USB drive. This would give you an external bootable copy of what you have now.

  • My new mac mini with fusion drive says I only have 36 GB of storage

    I have a new mac mini with the 1 TB fusion drive. When I look in storage in the About this Mac area, I'm told I have 6.67 GB free out of 34.62 GB. An Apple rep said that this is a bug in the system and that I have the proper amount of storage available. Wondering if anyone else has had this issue.

    I have just gotten of the phone with Apple Support here in Canada, more to let them know about this issue and yes, got the same message. The Fusion drive is very new technology and they have not heard much about this problem either. Their best advice was to wait untill the new iMacs role out with the same drive and see if the same problem is cropping up elseware. Maybe a solutiion will be forthcomming at that time?
    Seriously, I must say..... very disappointing Apple! Steve Jobs is probably rolling over in his grave. Since when does Apple role out a product that does not work 100% out of the box? Since when does Apple adopt a "wait and see" approach to possible hardware glitches? Where is the quality control people!!
    Even as a die-hard Macintosh fan, I must concede that Apple is loosing "street cred".
    Well, I have my complaint logged and will be awaiting further updates regarding this issue, but I won't be holding my breath.   

  • My new mac mini with Maverick does not go to deep sleep even if i press power button or Apple-Sleep mode.

    Hi.
    I have my new mac mini with Maverick that does not go to deep sleep even if i press power button or menu Apple-Sleep mode. He goes only to something like stand-by  (power lid is on; after i turn off and then turn on the power he does not wake up just starting). I tried "sudo pmset -a hibernatemode X", tried mode 0,1,3, and even 25. nothing helps. he goes to deep sleep (when all data on HDD) only first time after i change hibernatemode couple times and force it to sleep. Today i even tried to force it to sleep (menu Apple-Sleep mode) and NOT turn off the power for whole night, in the morning he is in this "stand-by" mode anyway.
    Could anyone help me please? i need it sleep but don't want to keep my power on for whole night.

    The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
    If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

  • I recently purchased new Mac Mini with Lion installed. Now I can't get iTunes to sync iCal from my iPod Touch (3rd gen) to my Mini.

    I recently purchased a new Mac Mini with Lion installed. I downloaded the latest version of iTunes. Now I can't get iTunes to sync iCal from my iPod Touch (3rd gen) to my Mini. Everything else syncs great, and iCal syncs from my Mini to my Touch. My Touch has the latest iOS installed. I have tried rebooting my Touch, removing the sync calendars option from iTunes>Info and checking it again after applying and closing iTunes, and restarting my Mini. Any help will be appreciated!

  • Just got a new Mac Mini with Lion - where is the downloads folder in the Window tab that is at the top of the page in Safari?  I used this a lot and really miss it!

    I just got a new Mac Mini with Lion - the Window tab at the top of the Safari Browser used to ahve a downloads folder in it along with Activity etc - but it is not there anymore. Any way to get it back or is there another location it sits in?  I used it when I'd copy video info from the activity folder and then paste into the download folder and presto - I downloaded the video onto my computer.  I really miss this capability!

    Download activity is found by clicking on the gadget on the right:

  • I have a new Mac mini and are using an Acer monitor. Unfortunately, the Acer will not show any image on a startup from cold. It does however work completely correctly when restarting from 'sleep' condition. Can anyone help? Thanks in anticipation.

    I have a new Mac mini- changed from Windows XP. I have a peculiar problem. I use an Acer monitorwith the Mac which works fine when the Mac is 'un-sleeped'. But, if I have shutdown the Mac the Acer does  not recognisethe start up - at least it shows nothing on screen. When I have shut down - nowknowing the problem, I use an old Samsung monitor to cope with the start up -it does so fine - and then put the Mac to 'sleep', then change monitors andrestart the Mac - the Acer is now fine. I am using the same cables for theSamsung and the Acer. The Acer had no problems with my old Windows system -from sleep or shut down. I really do not think there is anything wrong with theAcer - could it be some sort of recognition problem? Please can anyone assist.Donald Picton

    I posted the same question a day ago with no response. I'm using an Acer x193w. You actually don't have to switch monitors to get it to work. Just make sure you turn off the monitor after shutting down the Mac mini (actually push the power button on the monitor, not just let it go to sleep). If you turn on the monitor (push the power button on the monitor), then power up the Mac mini, the monitor is recognized. The issue didnt exist with Snow Leopard for me. It only started after I started using Lion. Hope this issue gets fixed In a future OS update.

  • I have a new Mac Mini, and I want to send raw video...

    I have a new Mac Mini (Lion), and I want to send raw video to the Internet, using Ustream, Skype or other services. I don't need cameras, microphones, or other periphrals. My video consists of 1 volt composite (from a video switcher), and the audio is full stereo at 600 ohm line level on each channel. What do I need?
    I have a video capture card on my Windows machine; but the results have been crappy at best. And the so-called "Geek Squad" at Best Buy (where I bought the Mac Mini) have been less than helpfull. Further, the on-line Apple Store shows nothing. Maybe someone here has an idea.

    You are going to need a video capture device of some sort and I believe the following will be suitable.

  • Can I use my iMac with a thunderbolt connection as an Display for my new Mac Mini with thunderbolt ??

    Can I use my new Mac Mini with Leopard and thunderbolt in connection with my new iMac as a display ?

    If it's a 27" iMac. I don't believe Target Display Mode is supported on the 21" model. But not with a Mac Mini running Leopard. It would need to be running Lion.

  • HT4410 I have a new mac mini, do I have enough space to download Windows 7, and can I just download the software or purchase a disc?

    I have a new mac mini, do I have enough space to download Windows 7, and can I do it through online purchase or disc?  My bootcamp assistant mentions using a USB flash drive??? 

    Yes you do have enough storage, you only need let's say 10GB to properly install Windows with a few (very small) programs. You'd be best of just going to a store and buying a Windows 7 install DVD (not an upgrade one!), or using one that you might have laying around at home. You can also purchase Windows 7 via the Microsoft online store and than burn it to a DVD. It is possible that installing from a USB-drive works, but I have not tried this yet.

  • Possibility to use new Mac mini with an USB-DAC?

    Anybody knowing anything about the possibility to use the new Mac mini with an USB-DAC. My reason for the question is that I've heard that USB3 doesn't handle sound. I'm thinking about to buy a mac mini and use it as an HTPC and signalsource together with NAIM DAC-V1.
    // Rode orm

    What I have heard that there are a few USB2 audio devices that
    have had some issues with USB3, but USB3 itself is supposedly
    backward compatible to USB2.
    I would check with the makers of the DAC to see if there are any
    USB3 issues.
