If you plan to set up a Mini as media server ...
Why not directly using the Mini as media center?
Then you wont need no Apple TV ...
Then your Mini IS the Apple TV, iTunes sever and so on, especially if e.g. a Elgato or WDTV stick or box is added.

  • Use MacMini server for windows apps and save for windows files ?

    My question : Office equiped mixed computers , aslo Windows and Mac,
    Could we use MacMini server for both machines, working by windows apps and / or to save and work with windows files on MacMini server  and with Mac as well?
    We woud use it for normal office work and get it by internet from other places as well
    windows apps: merchandising, invoice, word, excel, pictures editing, Outlook Express + the Mac apps
    thnx ,

    In general what you can do is: in OS X, use Windows in virtualization (aka emulation), as a "virtual machine" with VMWare Fusion, Parallels, or Oracle VM Virtual box.
    That way you have both operating system open side by side without having to reboot into one or the other operating system.
    Not sure whether you need a Mac Mini Server per se to do that, I do that with my MacBook Pro for instance. But the server would help since it has a quad-core CPU (more cores that you can dedicate to the virtual macine), and you can put the virtual machine on the second harddrive for better disk access performance. Was there some particular reason you were thinking of the Mini Server -- do you want to use server side Windows apps?
    Again I have that setup on my MacBook Pro using VMWare Fusion with an XP virtual machine. In the Windows, I only use Office 2003 and some company apps that are Windows only. With Fusion (and I'm sure the other apps can do it as well) you can set a "shared" folder so both Windows and Lion will see the contents of it for reading and writing. I believe with Fusion you can also do your entire Home directory, but I prefer to limit it to a single shared "work" folder.

  • I have a problem, i can't generate with DPS App Builder "App distribuzione.zip" to be sent to Apple to publish APP, this is the error message: is not a valid distribution certificate Apple. What do I do?

    I have a problem, i can't generate with DPS App Builder "App distribuzione.zip" to be sent to Apple to publish APP, this is the error message: is not a valid distribution certificate Apple. What do I do?

    As Bern510 says, you'll need to recreate certificates that are valid. I suggest following our step-by-step publishing guide, which walks through how to obtain certificates correctly.

    well i have to be honest, but i don't know if it the vista you use has any significance for this. but you can try.
    okay follow:
    1: click "start" on the status line on the buttom of your screen.
    2: then click on "all Programs" and find "Accessories" and find the "command prompt"
    3: Right click with your mouse "command prompt" and click on "run as administrator"
    (as you has click'd on "run as administrator", "command prompt" should appear.)
    4: when it appears you need to type this "netsh windsock reset"
    5: wait for your computer to registrer the command you gave it, and restart your computer.
    then erverything should be pretty much as good or better then new.

  • Macmini Server for Mentoring program

    I am in the development stages of setting up a mentoring program. I have been looking at the macmini server as an option but have a some questions in regards of ease of use versus a linux setup.
    I will be using apple computers along with ipad for my coordinators.
    I see that I can host a web site, but will it be able to host a vbulletin forum as well?
    I am pretty proficient when it comes to software, but have not really messed around with linux much. tried ubuntu and liked it but it seems odd coming from mac osx and windows. How user friendly is SL server edition campared to Ubuntu server in regards to setup, maintaining and management. I do not have the budget to have an IT person on staff.
    The server will primary be used to host website, forum, and file sharing. I like the integration of ical and the mail server. Any advise and suggestions appreciated.

    I've never setup a Ubuntu server but a Mac mini server is very simple, use your 90 days of free phone support as much as you can. Or see what that new Joint Venture thing is that they launched the other day.
    The Web Server is good and the Mail and iCal integration I can't remember if a Forum comes as one of the easy setup site options so thats a bit more work under the hood.
    The Applecare gives you phone support for a very good price cant see you getting an option like that on Linux, both have good online forums for assistance as well.
    The applecare doesn't cover command line though just GUI which probably means a vbulletin install would not be covered it you ran into trouble (so online forums for that one).
    For the price and its abilities IMO you'd be mad not to go with the Mini, especially with other macs and ipads.

    4. I check the IMEII if is blocked or no and is unblocked.
    Can anyone help with this issue?
    Thanks

    Nothing anyone can do for you. You have a second hand phone that's been repaired by an unauthorized 3rd party using counterfeit, stolen, or salvaged parts. Apple won't touch it, as you've learned.
    Buy a new phone. Preferably, from a legitimate source.

  • TS1468 I am having trouble with two cover flows duplicating themselves more than once, is there anyone out there that can help me with this, they are not duplicated in my itunes library, just the ipod.

    I am having trouble with two cover flows on my IPOD, duplicating themselves more than once, they haven't duplicated themselves in my Itunes library, just the ipod, could anyone have any ideas on how I could fix this problem. I have tried so many times, even if I restore the ipod, it still does the same thing. Please if possible email me at [email protected] with any suggestions.

    Aha! I have sorted it.
    For those with similar problems, the solution is this:

    Then delete DigiDioMidiDriver.plugin

  • I want to install a hp laserjet pro cp1525nw with ox mountain lion . I dowload the drivers in the apple site but when i try to add a printer , my mac book air do not start the research. nothing happen . Can you help me?

    I want to install a printer hp laser pro cp1525nw on my macbook air with mountain lion 10.8.2 . I download the drivers from the apple site and install them . I resart the macbook . I just can not add a new printer . the computer dos not start a research
    Can you help me?

    hi . I had the simalar  problems of my HP b209a-m printer not being seen on my wireless network> I could not add the printer and could not get the printer to join my network,  I found this post at HP discussion and it worked!
    Each printer has different options/settings but it seems like the general idea should work ok if you can reset printer back to factory settings and find Printer IP Adress.
    This is for HP printers
    1. On the printer navigate to the Wireless or Network menu.
    2. Select Restore Defaults.
    3. On your computer look for a wireless network named 'hpsetup' and connect to it.
    4. Print a Wireless Network Test from the front of the printer to see its IP address. (on my b209a-m Printer the IP info was found by pressing the Wireless Icon)
    5. Type the IP address into the address bar of a web browser to see the printer's internal settings.
    6. Click on the Network tab and look for the Wireless Setup Wizard and run it.
    7. The Passphrase is the password you use on your wireless connection.
    8. Now change the network name on your computer back to your wireless network.
    The printer will now be connected to your network.  With your the computer backyour wireless network network, you can re-add the printer from System Preferences.
    Hope this works--- it did for me.

  • Can you help with Tcode to fill this SETUP table? not working for me.

    Hi,
    For the datasource 2LIS_11_VASCL (SD Sales: Schedule Line Item), I need to fill the Setup Tables via OLI*BW
    I understand the * to be the application number, which in this case it is 11 but I get a message that OLI11BW does not exist.
    1. Can you  help me with the tcode to fill the setup table for 2LIS_11_VASCL?
    2. Since there are several datasources with the same application number 11, how do I fill only 2LIS_11_VASCL without filling the others:
    2LIS_11_VAHDR                     Sales Document Header Data
    2LIS_11_VAITM                     Sales Document Item Data
    2LIS_11_VAKON                     Sales Document Condition
    2LIS_11_VASCL                     Sales Document Schedule Line
    2LIS_11_VASTH                     Sales Document Header Status
    2LIS_11_VASTI                     Sales Document Item Status
    2LIS_11_V_ITM                     Sales-Shipping Allocation Item Data
    2LIS_11_V_SCL                     Sales-Shipping Allocation Schedule Line
    2LIS_11_V_SSL                     Sales Document Order Delivery
    Thanks

    Ok,
    I tried that and it basically bring you to OLI7BW as suggested above.
    1. At this point, how do you know which of these it is actually filling:
    2LIS_11_VAHDR Sales Document Header Data
    2LIS_11_VAITM Sales Document Item Data
    2LIS_11_VAKON Sales Document Condition
    2LIS_11_VASCL Sales Document Schedule Line
    2LIS_11_VASTH Sales Document Header Status
    2LIS_11_VASTI Sales Document Item Status
    2LIS_11_V_ITM Sales-Shipping Allocation Item Data
    2LIS_11_V_SCL Sales-Shipping Allocation Schedule Line
    2LIS_11_V_SSL Sales Document Order Delivery
    2. Also, what does it mean when after running OLI7BW wide, with no restriction on my system, still rsa3 shows no records for 2LIS_11_V_SCL?
    Any other way to confirm that there may not be any data in 2LIS_11_V_SCL?
    Or any way, to make an entry which reflect in 2LIS_11_V_SCL so that I can verify if OLI7BW actually fills the setup table?
    Thanks

  • Can't "Open With... Incopy.exe" in InCopy CC 2014 for Windows

    To say I'm frustrated would be being kind to Adobe... I'm really going to try to suppress my sarcasm and criticism at how incompetent Adobe programmers and program managers must be to allow this kind of problem to exist...
    I have some InDesign documents (.indd) that I want to right click on and set InCopy as the default program. After some trial and error, on two systems, I was able to adjust the registry to get this working.  On the third, so far, I've tried:
    1. Reinstalling Incopy - Did not work
    2. Copied the InCopy.exe to WWXXYYZZ.EXE - and while this allows InCopy to appear in the list of "other programs", it won't open. So...
    3. I searched the registry for WWXXYYZZ.EXE and replaced all instances with InCopy.exe (Why I copied it to this weird name in the first place - easier searching of the registry - this didn't work.
    4. Edited the following registry locations to ensure they pointed to InCopy.exe - but every time I change it to this exe, Windows won't open.  I'm sure Adobe would like to blame Microsoft for this, but when EVERY SINGLE OTHER Executable (and even the renamed copy) CAN be assigned to open it using the "Open with" dialog, I'm left believing that Adobe programmers decided not to do something properly in registering the exe with the registry - or registered it in such a way so as to prohibit it from being displayed in that menu for some reason.  SO HOW DO I FIX THIS!?!?!?!
    Registry locations edited (reset to point to InCopy.exe):
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.indd\OpenW ithList]
    "a"="InCopy.exe"
    "MRUList"="a"
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.indd\UserC hoice]
    "Progid"="Applications\\InCopy.exe"
    [HKEY_USERS\{ReplacedGUID}\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.in dd\OpenWithList]
    "a"="InCopy.exe"
    "MRUList"="a"
    [HKEY_USERS\{ReplacedGUID}\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.in dd\UserChoice]
    "Progid"="Applications\\InCopy.exe"
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\indd_auto_file\shell\Read\command]
    @="\"C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Adobe InCopy CC 2014\\InCopy.exe\" \"%1\""
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.indd\OpenW ithList]
    "a"="InCopy.exe"
    "MRUList"="a"
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.indd\OpenW ithProgids]
    "InDesign.Document"=hex(0):
    I'll repeat - HOW DO I FIX INCOPY TO OPEN AN INDESIGN DOCUMENT BY SIMPLY DOUBLE CLICKING? (and yes, I do have to shout that!)

    No thanks to the utterly useless folks at adobe, I got this working - I found a registry key that had the previous version of InCopy and once I deleted that, I could now right click and "Open With" InCopy and permanently assign it.

  • With all of the big changes that have gone on with Lion, surely it would have made sense for Apple to have provided how the new commands work? What is the best way to learn about how things have changed?

    Apple has tended in my expereince to provide intuitive software that users can grow to use and admire. Why then does Lion go off at a tangent and become unintuitive and just plain hard work to work out? I run a business and this has caused a lot of time consuming effort particularly when working out how to save files (in certain programs). Like so many products (iPhone being one), there is no guide to the great things that can be done and I just don't have the time to go fishing around online looking for tips and tricks when I've got clients who need things quickly.
    Where is the best place to learn about Mac things?

  • HT201272 How can I speak with someone that can assist me with prior purchases (under another email address) within itunes?

    You can contact iTunes customer support for assistance with your account.
    Keep in mind that purchases are permanently tied to the Apple ID that they were acquired with.

  • Can two iPhones with different iSO get synchronized via the same iTunes?

    Me and my wife have two iPhones 3S, sharing the same iTunes store account, which get usually synchronized via iTune 9.2. Now, I want to upgrade my iPhone to iSO4, while my wife is quite happy to momentarily stay with iSO 3.1.3. The question is will she be able to keep synchronizing her iPhone the old iSO3 way after me downloading (and installing) iSO4 on my iPhone? Need an advice before doing something foolish...

    If you don't want to update your wife's phone, don't update. The OS is NOT part of the itunes sync, other than some apps may only work properly under iOS 4 once developers start updating their apps. You should have no problems doing what you want.

  • Can i install amazon prime app if I don't have itunes on my apple ipad mini

    trying to install amazon prime app on my tablet but it keeps asking me for an itune account/password I don't have itunes is there any way to get past this so i can watch prime movies on my tablet with out itunes I really don't like itunes it is had to controll it trys to take over everything so I really don't want to install it unless I have too, thanks any help appericated, joy316

    All iPads have the iTunes app permanently installed. Users cannot remove it. They can set up Restrictions in the Settings app and hide it, but it cannot be removed.
    An iPad is a closed ecosystem. You cannot install anything on it without using the apps connected to an iTunes account; iTunes, App Store, iBooks, Podcasts and Newsstand.
    I have no idea what you mean that iTunes takes over everything.
