Continuity not Working on mid-2011 Mac Mini

Hello.
I can't turn on continuity on my Mac Mini however it should be capable to use this feature.
If I go to System Preferences and then General menu, I can't see such checkbox. See the attached screenshot.
Can someone advise what is the problem?
Thank you in advance,
Blake

That model Mini is not listed as being compatible

Can I daisy chain a DisplayPort-only monitor through the 2nd TB connector on a WD 8TB My Book Thunderbolt Duo to a mid-2011 Mac Mini?

I'm very tempted by a refurb HP Smartbuy ZR2740w 27" WQHD display, but it doesn't have a HDMI port. It does have DisplayPort.
Since the mid-2011 Mac Mini I have has either HDMI or Thunderbolt to choose from, plus I've just bought an external TB storage system, I think I'd need to connect the monitor to the second TB port on the external TB storage and hope that the external storage would pass the DisplayPort signals along.
I've read that DisplayPort connections are compatible with TB ports on Macs, and that you can daisy chain TB devices.
I don't want to assume those statements hold when I'd need to connect the DisplayPort cable to the 2nd TB port on the external storage.
Anyone know if this will work?
Is it "supported"?
Thanks!
Andrew

23. How do I connect my Mini DisplayPort monitor or monitor using a Mini DisplayPort adapter to my Thunderbolt-equipped Mac when I have other Thunderbolt devices connected?
When connecting a Mini DisplayPort display or a display using a Mini DisplayPort adapter to a Thunderbolt peripheral (except as described in question 24), make sure the display is connected at the end of the Thunderbolt chain. You can use only one Mini DisplayPort device in the Thunderbolt chain.
Note: Systems with more than one Thunderbolt port, like an iMac, can have more than one Mini DisplayPort monitor or monitor connected with a Mini DisplayPort adapter connected as each Thunderbolt port can support one Mini DisplayPort display.
24. Can I connect my Mini DisplayPort monitor or monitor using a Mini DisplayPort adapter to my Apple Thunderbolt Display?
Mini DisplayPort Monitors or Monitors connecting with Mini DisplayPort adapters will not function when connected through a Thunderbolt Display. They must be connected directly to the Thunderbolt port on the computer or to a non-display device as indicated above.

I upgraded RAM to 16gb in my i7 mid 2011 mac mini and it shuts down at night

I have a mid 2011 mac mini i7. Below are the specs on memory, hardware, and solid state. I also have Yosemite installed - everything is current. version 10.10.2
I've had 8gb installed since I bought it. And I just purchased 2 sticks of Crucial RAM 8gbx2.
Everything is fine but when I go to bed and wake in the morning, the system will not wake-up. I have fresh batteries in the keyboard and mouse. The system mini is warm on top - not cold or hot. So it does not seem asleep. I have pressed the button on the mac mini once and thought it was alseep...nothing happens. I just can't get it back up after it seems asleep at night.
The only way I can get the system going again is pulling the power plug. This has happened each night since installing the RAM. Oh, I also have held the power button down for 5 seconds trying to do a hard reset. Nothing
I was really excited to get the system up and running with 16gb but hate trouble. I am not a tech expert....
I have not changed any settings. And if it was asleep, why isn't it waking?
Does anyone have any ideas here?

Thank you for your help.
I did both resets you offer in the link above and then I went to bed last night.
In the morning, when I hit the keyboard, it paused and came to light....and said there was a problem and it automatically reset and re-booted from a blank screen (not main screen). This was the screen after the reboot. The full error info is listed below the image.

Win 7 Activation in Boot Camp on Mid-2011 Mac Mini?

I bought my wife a new Mid-2011 Mac Mini (2.3 GHz) to replace her older 1.66 GHz Mac Mini. After running all the Apple updates and getting the new Lion Mini set up the way she likes, I downloaded Windows Support software, ran Windows Easy Transfer on the old Mac Mini Win 7, and then ran Boot Camp on the new Lion Mini in preparation to installing Windows 7.
Then I installed Win 7, installed all the Windows updates and had a perfectly fine installation of Windows 7 running. Until I tried to activate Win 7 online. I got the message that I had entered an invalid Product Key. So I entered the Product Key again, but I kept getting the message that the Product Key wasn't correct and that I needed to buy another one.
This stunned me, as I had used the same product key to install Win 7 on my wife's old Mac Mini, which is now out of service. After Googling around for hints, I discovered something that I had missed: In Boot Camp 4.01 in Lion 10.7, a full-install retail version of Win 7 is needed. Aha! I had used the Upgrade version of Win 7 (Family Pack) I bought in late 2009 from Microsoft (I have 3 valid full-install Win XP and Vista licenses). I used the MS-approved double-install method to install Win 7 on the new Mac Mini to avoid the install-then-upgrade waste of time, not even knowing I couldn't install XP or Vista in a Boot Camp 4.01 partition.
I actually have two Win 7 Family Packs, bought in late-2009, and I have 6 valid full-install XP and Vista licenses/discs. Only 4 of those Win 7 installs were actively being used until yesterday, although all 6 have been activated in the past.
So here are my questions: Is the Lion Boot Camp 4.01 requirement of a full-install Win 7 disk causing the activation problem, or do I need to call Microsoft for a manual activation? Will Microsoft refuse to activate a copy of Win 7 Upgrade on my brand-new Lion Mac Mini even if I can provide proof of legal Product Keys?
Thanks for any help, insight, tips. What a complicated mess progress can be!

Solved the problem by using the Windows automated activation via phone. It took me several tries before I gave the right answer about how many computers had been activated with that particular Windows 7 Upgrade family pack Product Key. The magic answer was/is "one", even though I know for a fact that two computers in my household were actively using that Product Key. Go figure.
Anyway, the good news is that you *can* use a Windows 7 Upgrade disk to install Win 7 in Boot Camp 4.01 in Lion on a mid-2011 Mac Mini, despite what Apple says. I'm going to guess that Apple is trying to steer its customers away from just the sort of thing I've gone through. Further good news is that Microsoft doesn't care about the Mac side of the equation at all, just that you can satisfy their phonebot with the right answers. :^)
Thank God Apple not only doesn't use activation for its OS, but also in fact is headed willy nilly in the opposite direction with Lion.

Well, it seems that you have used Hackintosh to migrate or transfer your system from. These kexts are not present in original MacOs X.
On original Mac these kexts prevents it to enter sleep mode.
Solution is to remove these kexts from System/Library/Extensions or to do clean install.

Mid 2011 Mac MIni Freezing with OSX 10.8.2

My Mid 2011 Mac Mini running OS X 10.8.2 has been Freezing (The baloon spins often) over random things. Is there a scan I can do to check problems. This is my first experience with a Mac and thought they weren't supposed to freeze. I run a few programs at a time but I do have 8g of ram with 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5.

The next time you have the problem, note the exact times when it starts and ends: hour, minute, second.
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.
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.
Scroll back in the log to the time you noted above. Post any messages timestamped during that interval – the text, please, not a screenshot.
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 a message.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

Mid-2011 Mac Mini won't output 2560 x 1600 to my Dell U3014

Hi,
I recently purchased a Dell U3014 30" monitor. I've been using it with my PC via Dual-Link DVI without a hitch.
I decided to plug my mid-2011 Mac Mini into it using a MiniDisplayPort-to-DisplayPort cable. My mac recognises the monitor, but won't output at 2560 x 1600, the monitor says it isn't receiving a signal.
If I change the display settings to 1080p the monitor comes to life.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Spotlight is not working on brand new Mac mini

Hi,
I got an issue with two brand new Mac minis running 10.7.3 (11D50d):
Spotlight is not working. I'm only getting the Wikipedia-Search.
Here's what I did:
Installation:
- took the stock Minis and set up two users, admin and user (limited account)
- updatet the System
- installed manually: Adobe Reader X, Office 2011, Firefox 12, Flip4Mac, Perian, Cyberduck, Google Earth 6.2 (the installer without the updater), VLC 2
- installed using AppStore: CalendarBar, TextWrangler, Unarchiever
- copied a few documents (Word and Excel files) from a PC to the Desktop
Troubleshooting:
- tried to restart Spotlight by adding the entire harddrive to privacy using »Spotlight« within the System Preferences
- that threw an error "no priviliges"
- started the System from the recovery system (on an USB-thumbdrive) and repaired permissions
- that did not help
- tried to restart Spotlight through the Terminal, running the command: sudo mdutil -E /
- that command returned: No index.
- the tried: sudo mdutil -i on /
- returned: Error: unable to perform operation. (-400) No index.
- went the hard way
- unloaded the daemon: sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
- erased the Spotlight folder: sudo rm -fr .Spotlight-V100/
- loaded the daemon: sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
That made everything work fine until I did a restart of the System. After the mini restarted I was back at square one...
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this issue?
Apple support suggested to reinstall the system. Something I can't do right now, as people need to work on those computers and cannot take a tow hour break...

Hi Ray Land,
We can help narrow down the cause. What operating system are you using on your new Mac Mini?
If you are running the Mountain Lion OS, you can download the latest driver here. An important note is that the current print queue must be deleted before installing the new driver. This will ensure proper communication.
If this doesn't work or you need further assistance, please contact us here.

HT204388 LCD tv does not work with trackpad on Mac mini

My Mac mini is connected to my tv on the Jimi to Jimi and the trackpad and the keyboard of not work right
A fix for this ?

Please provide more information.
First, I have no idea what "Jimi to Jimi" means. This is probably just something you need to explain to me; a Google search didn't turn up anything useful.
You said that the keyboard and trackpad aren't working right. What does this mean, exactly? Regardless, the monitor you use should have no effect on the function of your other peripherals.

Send and Receive not working in Outlook 2011 Mac.

After doing a clean reinstall of Office 2011 the Send and Receive toolbar button does nothing when clicked. Performing a manual send and receive of the email account does not work either.
Note: Web Mail works fine.
Troubleshooting:
I’ve re-checked all account settings to ensure all settings are correct—they are.
I have recreated and reset my Outlook identities several times with no success.
I also rebuilt the Microsoft Database several times.
As a last resort, I performed a clean install of the entire Office package–twice.
Specs:
MacBook Pro OS X 10.9.5
Office 2011 updated to 14.4.8

SIMS 2 not working on Intel-based Mac Mini

SIMS 2 will not work on new Mac Mini. I contacted Aspyr who said that the integrated graphics card prevents it from displaying graphics and that this was a hardware problem.
Is there any way to make SIMS 2 work on the Mac mini
-update or add on graphics card
-use in PC mode
- or ?
Mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Hi Hillview,
If you bought 'The Sims 2' for Mac then it will only run on either a PowerPC Mac or an Intel Mac running OS X, not under Windows with BootCamp unfortunately. This means that you can't attempt to run it in "PC" mode. The Apple Store states that the minimum 'Graphics' requirements to run The Sims 2 are either an ATI 9200 and higher, or a GeForce FX5200 and higher. Unfortunately they don't quite take into account that they are shipping macs with Intels integrated graphics chipset now, and no Intel specific requirements are mentioned in the system requirements. It does however state that a minimum of 32MB Graphics Power is required to run the game, and the GMA950 that is in your mac mini has upto 64MB shared, meaning that technically it should run fine.
It must simply be a problem in the way that the Intel graphics chip processes visuals that are specific to the game its self and unfortunately you can't upgrade the Graphics chip inside your mac mini - it's soldered in! A call to the Apple Care Help Line may be your best bet, because the chances of you being able to get it running, aren't really looking all too good unfortunately =(
Hope that I may have been of help

Will Any Usb DVD-RW drive work with the 2011 Mac mini?

I am considering buying a USB DVD-RW drive, and i wanted to hear from people with first hand experience of USB dvd drive support for Mac's I'm looking for a DVD-RW DL drive, so It can burn DVD DL CD's normal DVD's RW's etc. Things a modern superdrive would do esentially.
I have checked and i personaly think the Official apple one will hit my bank too hard, not to mention it doesn't bother me what It looks like
Can anyone recommend any Drives that work?(It will also be used on My PC and Macbook with a broken superdrive)
I was looking around the £15-£25 price range
I was allso wondering if a USB to Sata with a Sata DVD drive will work? As from what i can see nobody has tried it!
Any help will be appriciated.
Thanks, Scott.
