MAC MINI BOOTS WITH VIDEO CORRUPTION (scrambled pixelated screen) even after restore and ram change, OK IN "SAFE MODE"

Would there be a MACOS Start-up item causing this considering it's OK with a "shift" boot?

Hi, does this Mini have a video card, or integrated graphics?
Likely it's the quartz driver, that is disabled in Safe Mode.
See this great post by themachead on how to list the extensions in Safe Mode with System Profiler then compare to the extension folder!

    My mac mail on just keeps sending the same messages even after deleted and shows thousands of emails supposed to be coming in

    If you have a backup, you can restore the e-mails. Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Library/Mail/V2.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

  • HT1338 My new mac mini is freezing to a dark blue screen every time it goes into a sleep or inactivity mode.

    If I leave the computer running with Safari open and walk away for 20 or so minutes it goes to the blank, dark blue video screen with the cursor still visible and movable.  The only way i've found to get back to computing is to reboot the computer manually with the on/off button.
    Thank you for your assistance...j

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time after  you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, while the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the entire contents of the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post any other kind of report — it will be very long and not helpful.

  • Mac Mini boots very slow with Mavericks (after security update)

    Hi,
    my Mac Mini boots very slow after I've installed Maveriks. I did two clean installs by now, seemed to work OK after the second one but after the latest safety update (2014-002) the boot time is up to 5+ minutes. Starting Safari or other software takes addtional time. See below for system specs, Etrecheck and log. Any ideas what could cause this? According to the update history I did install the security update 2014-002 twice on the same day although I cannot remember doing such a thing.
    Thanks Joerg

  • My 2012 Mac Mini came with a SSD and with Yosemite, can I add a SSHD and also migrate everything from a Macbook Pro that is running Lion 10.7.5?

    Hi Apple Community,
    Today I received a refurbished 2012 i5 Mac Mini that I purchased via Amazon. The Mac Mini came with a 256gb Samsung SSD only installed. The Mac Mini also has 10.10.2 Yosemite.
    I am planing on ordering an "OWC Data Doubler Mounting Kit" to add another drive onto the Mac Mini.
    (http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/DIYIMM11D2/)
    I also plan on getting a second drive which would be a 1tb SSHD Black Western Digital (16GB SSD) 2.5 SATA III (6.0GB/s) 5400RPM drive.
    Now here is where I am a very confused and concerned. What I essentially want to do is use Migration Assistant to completely migrate what I have on a 2012 i7 Macbook Pro's 750gb HDD to the Mac Mini's 1tb SSHD drive. I want every file and setting to be placed on my new Mac Mini just the way it is on the Macbook Pro. The Macbook Pro is however using 10.7.5 Lion while my new Mac Mini is using 10.10.2 Yosemite.
    What makes me confused is, if I migrate everything from the Macbook Pro onto the 1tb SSHD, would I still be able to benefit by having the 256gb Samsung SSD in the Mac Mini? For instance, would the Mac Mini still be able to boot up super fast and use the SSD to write and read programs very fast? Or is it because I am migrating everything from my Macbook Pro's HDD onto the Mac Mini's 1tb SSHD, my Mac Mini will not be able to use the speed benefits of the SSD?
    Another concern is, will I be able to use Yosemite or will I be stuck with 10.7.5 Lion? I would only like Yosemite. I do not mine if Lion is removed from my new Mac Mini.

    UPDATE:
    Hi again,
    I made more research on raid and now I am considering not to raid at all.
    Raid0 seems extremely risky because I do not know how the SSD and SSHD would react together.
    And Raid1 seems like it would not be able to function the way I would like to store my files. [The SSD is 256gb and SSHD is 1tb, there is no point in raid1]
    I think I will just have to add the second drive and use it without raid. I will mostly save media files such as movies, pictures, and music. And for everything else, save it onto the SSD's storage.

  • I just purchased the Mac Mini Server with the intention of replacing Lion Server with Lion for the first hard drive while installing Windows 7 thru Bootcamp on the second hard drive. Is it possible for me to do this? Thanks.

    I just purchased the Mac Mini Server with the intention of replacing Lion Server with Lion for the first hard drive while installing Windows 7 thru Bootcamp on the second hard drive. Is it possible for me to do this? Thanks.

    I would use Parallels or VMWare and use the second drive to hold the virtual machine. That way the VM only uses the space that it needs and you can still use the remainder of the drive for other things, not to mention that you would not need to reboot to run windows.
    Also Time Machine does not back up a boot camp partition.

  • Mac mini reboot with a refresh symbol and a right arrow what do I do to reboot my os?

    Hello I recently purchases a Mac mini G4 with what I thought was a blank hard drive I hold down the alt key on my PC keyboard and a screen comes up that has a refresh button and a right facing arrow I have a cursor and click on either of them and neither of them do anything what do I do? 

    ok thats what I thought, I obtained a linux lite os and burned it on a blank disk and inserted it in the mac mini it spun inside but then did not boot, im not sure if there is a sertain way to burn it to the disk to make it bootable, im using a laptop with windows to burn the disk with the os on it. any help will be welcome thank you

  • Need new disk for 2011 Mac Mini i5 with Radeon 6630M

    I need a new disk for 2011 Mac Mini i5 with Radeon 6630M
    Will this fit?
    Western Digital 2.5 inch Scorpio Black 750GB 7200rpm SATA 16MB Internal Hard Drive WD7500BPKT
    Will I need special screwdrivers or tools?

    Wow, I worked on my MacMini after watching the video.
    But BEWARE!
    That OWC video misses a crucial step! (I emailed them)
    My MacMini had a bit of "invisible" black tape holding the disk connector to the disk, very hard to see. When I pulled off the connector, it came apart !
    That bit of tape must be something Apple added, or some manufacturers added, but it really messed me up. I had to send my MacMini off to be repaired, at a cost about $200 including parts and labour.

  • Mac Mini boots to flashing folder

    I experience a hdd failure of my mac mini, about a week ago. Ordered a new SSD and replaced it. I then went to a buddies house and put OSX Lion on a thumb drive. Tested it, and it booted on his machine. Now, my mac mini boots to a flashing folder, and I hold the option button upon boot (same sequence I used to test the thumb drive and successfully booted to it) and nothing happens. I just get the same flashing folder and no ability to reference to it. After so long, the system times out and shuts down.
    So to conclude,
    Mac mini hdd crash. New BLANK ssd installed. Mac mini does not give the option to boot to usb, only flashes gray folder with question mark. Holding option to get boot menu does not work.
    Suggestions? I was originally going to burn the OS to a disc, but his machine spit out my blanks.

    If you are refering to something created using Recovery Disk Assistant,
    it will only work on the machine it was created on.  If not, how was it
    created?  In most cases, it may not work on machines or show up
    on a machine that did not have Lion installed natively.

  • Can Mac Mini boot XP from an External HD ? ? ? ?

    Hi All,
    Just a quick question.
    I have a recently deceased PC. RIP.
    I was able to salvage my boot drive with much of my media content.
    I would very much like to buy a Mac Mini to use as a PC / Media Center.
    Can a Mac Mini boot Windows XP from an external drive?????
    thanks to any who can answer this question,
    or possibly point me to more info .
    best regards

    Hi,
    without the preperations to be made, that are outlined in the link I gave, Windows always tries to read and write certain files during bootup, which it can't find when you 'only' have a Windows on an external HD.
    I only know of these instructions to get Windows on external HDs to work.
    If it weren't for games you like to play, I would suggest to have a look at the 'Virtualization' apps like Parallels or VMWare Fusion.
    But these aren't good for playing games.
    Sorry
    Stefan

  • Mac Mini boot up problem.

    Recently, I started to come across a rather annoying problem. Whenever I start my mac mini, boot menu comes up as if "alt" key was pressed. I choose HD and then mac mini boots normally. I suspected an imminent HD failure and  checked the HD for errors with OSX built in disk utility and third party SMART utility. Nothing seems to be wrong with volume and smart tests are OK. While the OSX is running, I don't see any unusual problems like stalls, beach ball or so. Any ideas appreciated.
    Mac mini 3,1 OSX SL 10.6.8.

    No, I doubt it's a hard drive failure although that cannot be ruled out yet. I would first consider doing a reinstallation of OS X:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.
    Let's see if that fixes the problem. Any chance you have another keyboard you can try? In case this doesn't help.
    BTW, are you really a physicist? If so what specialty?

  • Can Mac mini boot into 64-bit kernel

    http://macperformanceguide.com/SnowLeopard-64bit.html says:
    To determine if your Mac has 32-bit or 64-bit firmware, copy/paste the following command into Terminal:
    ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | grep firmware-abi
    ...output:
    | | "firmware-abi" = <EFI64>
    As shown above, the firmware-abi has the value EFI64, indicating that my Mac Pro is 64-bit capable. If it reads EFI32, then your Mac cannot be booted into a 64-bit kernel.
    ...well, my Mac mini displays that EFI64 64-bit info, but when booting with the "64" keys down it nevertheless uses the 32-bit kernel.
    So can the Mac mini boot into 64-bit kernel?

    What you are missing is that Apple has written into the boot ROM for certain Macs which meet the criteria to not be able to boot with the 64-bit kernel. The Mac mini is not allowed to boot into 64-bit mode by Apple. There is a list of non-pro Macs hard coded into the EFI boot firmware that tells it not to allow these Macs to boot into 64-bit mode. The Mac mini is on the list! Try as you may the Mac mini will not do it without a hack.
    If you google this issue you can find a hack to rewrite the boot firmware and allow the mini to boot into 64-bit mode. It can be dangerous to your mini if you make a mistake!
    Here is one hack;
