I don't have a TV anymore so I really need to know if I can use my mac mini as one.

But you need OSX 10.7 or later
and if you have Thrunderbolt connection on your Mini then this maybe:

Just made the pc to Mac jump. Can I connect my iPad to my Mac Mini via Bluetooth ...my current keyboard isn't connecting so I can't even get passed the password screen.

Someone please help me connect my two devices together so that I don't have to purchase yet another item. Is there an app or something that would allow me to connect my Mac Mini to my iPad 2 wirelessly. I can't get passed the password screen because the wireless Keyboard will no longer connect to my Mac ...helllllppp .... I use it for both my iPad and my Mac mini....does that matter?

If your iPad is close enough to your keyboard and Mini
and if the iPad is merely in standby and not off, the
connection to the iPad is still active. Therefore, the
keyboard will not connect to the Mini.
If the iPad is far enough away to break the Bluetooth
connection or you unpair from the iPad or you turn the
iPad off, then the keyboard should connect just fine with the Mini.
Most Bluetooth HID's (Human Interface Device) can only service
one host at a time. This is by design.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by this - do you mena connect to the Mac to access streaming media or perhaps you were wondering if the AppleTV can behave as a wireless extender to give network access to the PS3 - it can't.
If you are looking for media server solutions there are several available that run on Mac, some free some commercial.

Can i connect my iMac to a mac mini (wirelessly) and control the mac mini display on my TV?

Can i connect my iMac to a mac mini (wirelessly) and control the mac mini display on my TV?

Look up "screen sharing" in help
You can control your mini (which I am assuming you are hooking to your TV) complete from your iMac.
After you set up screen sharing, you can go to the finder, under the "go" menu choose "Connect to server" and then browse. Choose your mac mini's name, and look for the "Screen Sharing" button.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Sharing.
Select the Screen Sharing checkbox.
To specify who can share your screen, select one of the following:
All users:
Select this if you want to allow any user with a user account on your computer to share your screen.
Only these users:
Select this if you want to restrict screen sharing to specific users.Click Add at the bottom of the Users list and select a user from Users & Groups (accounts you have set up in Users & Groups preferences), Network Users (users on your network), or your Address Book. Or click New Person and enter a name and password to create a sharing account. Then select that user from the list, and then click Select.
Click Computer Settings and set the following options:
Anyone may request permission to control screen:
Select this to allow anyone on your network to request to share your screen.
VNC viewers may control screen with password:
Select this and enter a password that VNC viewer applications can enter in order to control your screen.It’s recommended that you not set a password if you only share this computer’s screen using the built-in screen sharing viewer in Mac OS X.

Can I connect my iMac to my mac mini??

I have the new 27 inch imac with thunderbolt, and I want to connect it to my new mac mini in my media closet. I was windering if there is a way to do this. The purpose of my mac mini is strictly as a media server, and all of my work and media are done on my imac and stored on external storage devices in my media closet. I want to be able to share my media and applications directly with the mac mini. The only monitor I have for the mac mini is the iMac itself. Can I not run the mac mini on the iMac??

you should be able to use the iMac's screen (27" model) with another computer, using DisplayPort.
I'm not sure what you mean by "sharing applications", that's not usually possible.

Can I connect two monitors to a Mac Mini?

Can I connect two Monitors to a mac mini

Yes, but how depends on what model of Mini and what kind of monitors. Early models only had one monitor port. Later models had a Mini-DVI port and a Mini-Displayport. Current models have a Mini-Displayport and a HDMI port. The Mini-DVI and Mini-Displayport can attach VGA or DVI monitors, whereas the HDMI port can't use VGA monitors.
Beyond that, you can get Matrox's DualHead2Go or a USB->VGA or USB->DVI adapter. The Matrox product is a bit expensive and the USB adapters are a bit to slow for games and such. So, again, the answer is "yes", but with limitations

¿Can I connect 3 jacks on my mac mini?

Hi, mates.
First of all, I am new here, and I have a big issue I need help to solve. I have recently bought a MacMini 6.1 (late 2012). With my old PC, I had a Creative 5.1 sound system connected with three different coloured jacks (green, orange and black), as you can see in the image below. As all of you may already know, the MacMini 6.1 has only one audio out. My issue, then, is how to properlly connect those thre jacks into my only MacMini hole. What I have tried so far is connecting the black one: the result, only 2 of 5 speakers sound, -and the subwoofer doesn't sound neither! I have also tried to connect the green and the organge ones, and then, I can only hear the bass. While searching at home, I have found a little device (second picture below), and I have tried to use it. However, there has been no kind of improvement. ¿What do I need to buy for the subwoofer to sound? I don't really mind if I can get a real 5.1 sound and, to be honest, it doesn't really matter if I don't even get the 5 speakers to work. The minimum I have always wanted is the subwoofer to sound with, at least, two of the 5 speakers. I imagine some of you may think that is stupid to have a 5.1 sound system and only use it as a 2.1, but at this point, I would be really happy only with that. The thing is that I have been searching the web, Google, apple unofficial forums and even this one; but, as far as I am not an expert but a common user, I have understood nothing. ¿Can anyone help me and give me a deffinitive answer, please? You know, I think I need a lot of help. Besides, my pocket is almost empty, so I will have to choose the cheapest option.
Thank you all.

The built-in sound connector on the Mac mini can either output Analogue Stereo, or Digital (Optical) Stereo, or 5.1 or even 7.1.
Your Logitech system is looking for an analague 5.1 setup which the Mac mini itself cannot do.
You need to either use an AV Receiver between the Mac and the Speakers to do the conversion, or get an external sound card for the Mac.
Something like this http://www.hercules.com/us/Sound-Cards/bdd/p/56/muse-pocket-lt/
Historically FireWire devices were used but since some Macs no longer have built-in FireWire I would suggest looking for a USB one.

Can I connect 2 monitors to a Mac Mini?

I am thinking of buying a Mac Mini for an art installation project and will need to connect two monitors to it. Please can someone let me know if I can connect more than 1 monitor to a Mac mini. Can they be 19" monitors or must they be smaller resolution? Do they have to be of a particular specification? Any recommendations? Thanks very much.

A simple splitter would theoretically support anything up to the mini's maximum resolution, but in practice it depends on the actual displays being used as the whether the mini correctly identifies the devices and offers the correct range of resolution options. Some juggling (such as disconnecting one display while the system boots or wakes from sleep) can help, but it really does depend on the display(s) as to whether the mini behaves correctly via a splitter of this sort.
The Matrox device is technically far better because it presents itself to the mini as a single display, but of course it limits maximum resolution across both screens, and thus isn't really all that attractive a proposition unless 15" LCDs are to be used rather than anything larger.
The USB-based device seems to offer the best of both worlds - or at least will offer the best of both worlds when released with tried and tested Mac drivers. It's not all that clear why Mac drivers have been slow in coming for these devices when they have been around for Windows for some time now, and a number of manufacturers had pre-announced Mac versions as much as a year ago. At the general price of $99 or so, a USB adaptor would provide a reasonably low cost and (importantly) flexible way to add a second display.... if such a device can be currently had!
The forgoing is the reason the 'yes' answer is not the short one!

Can 't connect old iMac to new Mac Mini

I'm trying to connect an older iMac (450MHz, cherry red OS 9.2.1) to a new Mac Mini (OS X 10.4.3).
I don't have a Frewire cable, so I'm trying to do it with an ethernet router. I seem to be doing it incorrectly. File Sharing is turned on for the iMac. I have set TCP/IP to configure with DHCP, but when I try doing Connect to Server from the Mini, it can't see the iMac. What could be wrong?
After I tried DCHP, I tried configuring manually. I input the router's IP address, the correct subnet mask, and an invented IP for the iMac, making it one integer larger than the Mini. Still no luck.
Now what?

I don't think you even need a router for those Macs… someone please confirm or correct me, and I think the Mini has an autosensing socket that will let you talk directly to another ethernet device, in this case the iMac…
That aside, when you're not using DHCP please specify exactly what you've put in IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS Servers and Search Domains on both Macs, and do they both have AppleTalk on?
"the router's IP address, the correct subnet mask, and an invented IP for the iMac, making it one integer larger than the Mini…" is only two IP addresses and this needs one each for the Macs and a third for the router… The router probably has a factory default of either 10.0.0.2 or 192.168.1.2, yes? In that case the Macs want to be x.x.x.3 and x.x.x.4
Then, did you literally mean "Connect to Server from the Mini, it can't see the iMac…" It won't, unless you either enter the iMac's Server Address or manually Browse…

I would like to connect my Mac Mini 2 to my MacBook, but am not sure how to do this. I want to
install software from a disc, and there is no built in hard drive on the Mac Mini 2.

Be certain that the software on that disc is compatible with the operating system you plan to install it too.

How can I connect multiple speakers to the Mac Mini?

Just received and setup up my new Mac Mini (Dual-Core i7, 8GB memory, 750GB disk) with OS Lion. Still in newbie phase. I have a set of 3-way Boston Acoustic speakers (w/ subwoofer) from an old Gateway computer. Is there any way/adapter available to connect them to the Mac Mini in order to improve music played within iTunes. Appreciate your responses.
