HT201897 Does a Mac Mini purchased in the USA require a power converter for operation in Europe or should I only purchase a different power cord for it?

Does a Mac Mini purchased in the USA require a power converter to operate outside of the USA or can I simply purchase a different power cord for it?

Depending on which European country (should their mains access plug/port shape vary) the
cord set with correct ends on it has to match. You can buy a cord that plugs into the Mini
where the factory cord goes, and the other end has one for the wall source shape. The wire
for the application should be able to support 110~240VAC.
With the cord or an accurate image in hand, you could either get a new cable to match both
realities (mini + wall supply mains local) or an adapter (US/Standard to EU/Local) for just
the head or input part of the original Apple cable. One plugs into the other, then into wall.
If you have a new Mini with a small modular plug/port on the computer end of the power wire,
it would have only two holes and no ground; the other end would have two prongs of equal
shape and size. Not a polarized plug and not a grounded three-prong. To get a replacement
power wire for the MINI to go from power source to the Mini is recommended, if you are going
to be staying in one location for awhile. A Travel Kit that offers no electrical conversion but only
the physical shape adapter kit, should a available in travel stores, airports; big box discount
stores, computer and electronic stores. This page shows the cord end of the appliance shapes.
The other end would be the mains shape for whichever country you are going to....
http://www.signalandpower.com/European-Power-Cords/
So to match the country or regional power mains type is a primary concern for obtaining the
correct replacement cord to supply the Mini with local mains power. The end which plugs into
the Mini is of a certain type (numbers for EU and elsewhere are published, see link + images)
& the end that gets plugged into the mains or utility side, needs to match the local specification.
The link to Apple, to contact for Support and Service information in prior post, should be able
to help find a source for the local replacement type cord they'd sell local people with a Mini.
Apple local sources offer replacements for this purpose; and for travelers, a second cord for
a direct use (not adapter plugs) is a better bet. For those who only need a cord in two places.
If you are traveling to Denmark, UK, Swiss or other EU countries require different adapters.
Even places where the power itself may be somewhat similar. However your MINI has an
automatic power supply that will conform to that energy standard, you only need to supply a
correct non-transforming adapter. Simply a connection to adapt one shape to another.
The general purpose travel kit that is not specialized to Apple power adapters, would have a
plastic plug/adapter with the local pins on one side, and the US/standard two slots on the other.
So, no circuitry nor any other change of electrical power inside this device would be required.
http://www.signalandpower.com/2-Prong-Plug-Adapters/
http://www.signalandpower.com/Convert-to-Europe-CEE-716-plug/
http://www.signalandpower.com/Swiss-AC-Power-Cords/
In other words, I believe my other post already covered this. On the ground on either end of the
path, adapters are common and the Mini does not use proprietary electrical components IF you
have one of the more recent shape aluminum models with the power supply built in. The older
Mini has the power brick and two wires. A US/Standard plug adapter to EU/Local would work in
either case, since all you'd do is plug the adapter plug into the local mains and the US plug into
that one... I see these kinds of discards for as little as 25¢ in thrift stores in Alaska. Or you can
buy a new one. Or you could get a complete cord with correct ends on it, for Mini + local mains.
Hopefully this helps somewhat. The only info missing is which EU country or region is involved.
Their shapes of plug are different, so the adapter end for local supply has to match their standard.
Swiss, Denmark, UK, and others offer different shapes and so on.
The Apple store in the location you are traveling should be able to supply you with a replacement
cable for a modern MINI, that has the correct local mains end, and the correct Apple mini end on
the opposite. Since the unit is automatically switching, the magic is done.
Since I supplied a means to locate any number of Apple stores, authorized service providers &
other Apple related vendors in my earlier reply: https://locate.apple.com/country you could contact
any of them along your route in the City in whichever EU country, to find a local MINI power cable.
In any event, I'm done...
Good luck and happy trails...

I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad. Can I use the iPad as a keyboard and screen for the Mac mini, using either the USB connector or Wi-Fi?

I'm sorry, I should have said thru Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi. I want to use the mini as a base station and the iPad like a laptop that I can sync when I'm home and carry with me when I travel. Is is possible to hook these 2 up - iPad/mini, through Bluetooth? I understand I need to use a regular monitor/keyboard/mouse on the initial install.

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 Upgrade on the horizon?

I am considering the purchase of a Mac-Mini to use as an HTPC device, but I wanted to know if anyone knew how long the current'top-of-the-line' Mac-Mini has been available to the public, and/or if anyone has gotten wind up an upgraded model that may be released sometime soon?
I know it's not possible to keep pace with the latest/greatest hardware that's available, and I am also aware of Apple's secrecy regarding any new hardware releases...but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask, as perhaps someone might be able to +(for example)+ tell me that it's been six months since the initial release of the current 'top-of-the-line' Mac-Mini, and in the past Apple has released new Mac-Mini models every 6-8 months or so...
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated... Thanks!

It really isn't possible to give you an credible idea of when (or if) apple will update or replace the current minis. Policy is not to reveal such plans in advance, and thus anyone who does know will be under a non-disclosure agreement and be unable to repeat what they know.
It's also against the terms of use here to discuss such things, but one can make a reasoned assumption that since the current chipset in the mini is being phased out my Intel, the mini will have to be replaced or updated at some point to accommodate the newer CPU - this was what happened with the iMac recently, along with relatively small speed bumps. The mini, however, as the entry level system really serves a different sort of market, so Apple have not so far seen the need to update it regularly, nor with particularly significant improvements.
As such, I wouldn't be inclined to expect anything major in terms of what will happen to the mini. The last update was around August last year, so one might argue that Apple are due to release another. Typically though that hasn't been the way the mini has gone so far. It is reasonable to think it will be updated or replaced at some point, but the only reliable way to approach this is to work on the basis of what is available now. For media center use, the original mini, G4 processor and all, was quite sufficient for many, so it's not as if this sort of use has particularly heavy hardware demands. There are some thiongs one might expect in a media center device (Blu-Ray player for example) that it can be certain will not be in the next generation of mini (such would appear in other models higher up the range first, and there's no sign of them yet), but short of that, the mini is pretty credible as it is.
Another thing to consider is that with the AppleTV device on the market, Apple are not likely to push the mini toward media center use, thus whatever they plan seems likely to be aimed at more traditional computing in order not to seriously cannibalize AppleTV sales.
My advice would be that if you don't need to buy a system at this point, or find the current models insufficient, then wait. That way you get to see what may (or may not be) on the horizon before making a purchase. If you need something now, then unless you have distinct needs outside the mainstream, a current mini is likely to be very effective. Certainly a minor speed bump and slightly faster processor isn't likely to help much, even if that's what Apple deliver.

Does a Mac Mini connect to a G5

I have been working with the iPad, and I have a G5 Mac ..does a Mac mini connect to a G5

Which iPad/iOS on the iPad?
What OSX version on the G5?
An iPad 1 (only goes to iOS 5.1.1) will sync to a fully updated G5. That means OSX 10.5.8.
A later model, fully updated iPad will not sync since they require iTunes 11.1 and that requires OSX 10.6.8 or later which requires a Mac with an Intel processor.

Just started up my Mac Mini out of the box, using a USB windows keyboard, it will not recognize letters so I am unable to enter serial number. Anything I can do to get the mini mac right out of the box to recognize the windows keyboard?

Just started up my Mac Mini out of the box, using a USB windows keyboard, it will not recognize letters so I am unable to enter serial number. Anything I can do to get the mini mac right out of the box to recognize the windows keyboard? Do I have to buy an Apple Keyboard to get it to work right out of the box?

Is this a normal USB keyboard or is there anything specialized about it? Does this keyboard require you to install any special software to use it on a Windows box? Or is it usually a plug & play keyboard?
Normally if a Mac does not recognize a keyboard it asks you to press certain keys to identify the keyboard. What is happening on screen with this keyboard? What serial number are you referring to?

Why does my mac mini getting hot

why does my mac mini get hot and run fan speeds up high. I've added ram and do not understand the temperature flucuations.

How hot is hot? What programs are you running when it gets hot?

Does 2012 mac mini get very hot when using logic pro

does 2012 mac mini get very hot when using logic pro

Are you saying that your machine does or is it an enquiry before buying ? I use a 2011 server model - well, it does get hot over a period of time, but I've very rarely heard the fan kick in, its a surprise when it does. As far as I know the casing has been specifically designed to conduct heat, rather than having any fancy grilles and so on, being so small in size. I haven't found it to be cause for concern, if that's any help.

How do Mac mini users like the parallel program?

I have been a PC user since the 8088 chip and I am done!
For now, the transition to APPLE is pretty scarry.
I have 2 routes. Create a windows partition ro do the parallels snapshot of my windows system.
How well does this snap shot solution work for most folks?
Are there better solutions?

I am going to need both at some point a LT and desktop.
As a above, I need a laptop for the studio to shoot tethered and a mini (2.7 i7, 8-16gb RAM, 500gbHD to use on my office for editing, is because I have many peripherals, especially my NEC monitor that has a lot of life left...I am just SICK SICK SICK of Windows issues and Apple owners knowing something I don't. LOL!!!!
On higher end ADOBE products, the programs call home and if something is amiss, the programs will DEACTIVATE all on their own, You don't have a chance to be dishonest. LOL
SO, as above, I can't BUY 2 apple products: a Mac mini and a MBP to have the upgrades all on MACs, THUS the reason for this post about being able to run windows to run these programs until I can buy my 2nd MAC product ( a laptop).
Yeah, I know about activation -- I have CS5.5. License should still allow one laptop, one desktop (or even just two computers) as long as they're not used simultaneously. But I understand your problem, you can't yet buy both the MBP and Mini now; you want both a laptop and desktop, so you can't crossgrade now.
Is there anything that stops you from "lugging" a laptop from studio to office? You can always set up hubs with the peripherals attached, so you can quickly hook up the laptop. I haul my MBP to work everyday, where it connects to an wide-gamut monitor and a FW/USB hub that in turn is hooked up to HDs, graphics tablet, card readers, etc. I connect wireless to the network, which saves me one cable.
Speaking of peripherals, since you're thinking of switching, make sure there are Mac drivers, etc. for them. You may still need virtualization software anyway if you can't get Mac drivers.
As BDAqua mentioned, if you go the virtualization route you're still running Windows; so protection is needed.
Have you considered instead of the 2.7 i7 Mini, the Mini Server instead? The mini server while clocked slower at 2.0GHz has a quad-core i7, and a 2d HD standard. Sticking the Virtual machine one the 2d HD (and more BTO options on dual drives), while giving it more cores will improve improve performance. (But you can always try sticking your Virtual Machine on an external HD for improved performance.) While it comes with Lion Server; Server is some added apps on top of client that you can turn off and throw away.
The 2.7Ghz i7 you're looking at is dual-core. Getting dual drives on that is more costly when you BTO -- you have one choice. While some have added a 2d HD themselves, Apple doesn't consider it a user serviceable, so adding a 2d HD yourself most likely will violate the warranty.
In favor of the Mini you're looking is the AMD dedicated GPU, while the Mini Server has the Intel integrated GPU. It's a bit of a conundrum. Were there an option for the Mini Server with the AMD, I would have paid for it.

My mac mini wont turn on but there is power to it as the usb port charges my iPad

My mac mini wont turn on but there is power to it as the usb port charges my iPad. My monitor uses a HDMI cable when the mac mini is off it says no input received which it does not say so it is receiving some signal from the mac mini. I have tried a different cable and a different monitor/ hdmi cable. The fan isnt running there is no start up noise but the little light on the front blinks every 4-5 seconds. Im booked in to see a GENIUS on sunday but I was wondering if there is anything I can do in the mean time. The mac mini is only 8 months old if that. Any ideas people? Oh the mac is also running mountain lion and has been since the day of release i've never had a problem up until this.

The following table lists the new tones and their meaning:

Can you count the beeps or flashes?
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable
In addition to the beeps, on some computers the power LED will flash a corresponding number of times plus one. The LED will repeat the sequence after approximately a 5-second pause. The tones are only played once.
Note: In this case, a flash is considered to be 1/4 second or 250 ms or greater in length.

Why does my Mac Mini running on Mavericks so slow to start and load apps?

Why does my Mac Mini running on Mavericks take so long to start and load apps?

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal 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 Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "Model Identifier." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Why does my Mac Mini go into a safe boot mode after put to sleep?

Why does my Mac Mini go into a safe boot mode after I put it to sleep?

HI, can you tell us how you know it's Safe Mode?
Not sure if this applies to the new Macs, but if not I doubt it'll hurt anything...
After using Safe Boot, to return to a normal startup, execute this command in Terminal or the command line:
sudo nvram boot-args=""

HT201897 Does a Mac Mini purchased in the USA require a power converter for operation in Europe or should I only purchase a different power cord for it?
