Can I use an e-mac for a monitor with a new mac mini?

Not outside of Virtual Network Computing, which requires a separate monitor to set up.

  • Can you use a 2007 Mac book pro as a monitor for a current Mac mini?

    Is it possible to use a 2007 Mac book pro as a monitor for a current Mac mini?

    Use a product such as ScreenRecycler over a network. All of these products require a standalone monitor to set up.

    I was wondering if it was possible to connect the new Mac Pro, that is coming out Autum 2013, to an iMac 27 so as to use the iMac as it's monitor?

  • I am using Dragon for Mac and it is not supported under the current Mac OS?

    I bought the Mac Dictate program Version 3 latest one out there at Best Buy. Bless their hearts they tried for 6 hours at no charge to me to make it work. They gave me my money back. It continued to crash.
    This is what I learned in 6 hours.
    In answer to your question it is not supported even on the OS X Version 10.9.1

    It's a 50/50 chance it will work. I will tell you what my issues were
    1.Even if you update your Mac's version it will not work
    2.Nuance Mac Dictate staff patronize you and tell you it's Apples system fault, They don't return your phone calls.( I spoke to a Patrick who wanted me to send him a screen shot of the the crash then said,
    To save an apple system profiler report
    3.WAIT
    I just discovered that of you go to System Preferances and check Use Enhanced Dictation . To start dictation press your fn function key twice and you are recording. OMG! I opened WORD into a  blank page  tried it and it works! Also It's free on Mac.

  • Does anyone know where I can buy a 750GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm for the new mac mini??

    There is a mac mini teardown for the new model at this site: http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Mac-Mini-Mid-2011-Teardown/6131/1. Here it says that the user can easily upgrade their own mac mini hard drive, but does any place sell a 750GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm for mac mini that you know of???
    Thanks in advance.

    My source for hard drives has, for years, been newegg.com. They have good selection, good prices, and speedy delivery. Also, a broad selection of user comments. You can find their 2.5" laptop 750GB serial ATA 7200RPM drives at http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007605%2060003059 9%20600003340&IsNodeId=1&name=7200%20RPM

  • I have an old and new mac and used transfer manager to put the old mac on the new so that i have both users on one computer but now I can only log in as the new and as guest so cant access my old computer docs on this newer mac.  Help!

    Hello I have just sold my old macbook and so transfered all my data to my newer macbook using transfer manager.  This allowed my to login on the newer computer under either the old or new username so I could access both computers' data on my newer computer.  Last night that worked but today I can only access my newer user and a guest user.  Where did my old user name and all the data go after the transfer?  Help please! I have to give the buyer the old computer today!
    Aminah

    I am not familiar with "transfer manager." Did you perhaps use the Migration Assistant? What operating system is installed on your new computer?
    If you look in your hard drive, in the Users folder, do you see a folder with the name from your user on your old computer?
    Best of luck.

  • 2 monitors for most current Mac Mini

    I have a NEC PA241W wide gamut monitor connected to the thunderbolt port using a mini-display port to display port (monitor side) cable which works fine.  I want to connect a 2nd monitor so I can work more efficiently.
    Have a older LCD VGA only monitor that wasn't being used so I bought this adapter
    http://shopping2.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Accessories/Cables/NP031AA? HP-HDMI-to-VGA-Display-Adapter?jumpid=re_r11260_envy14_spectre_buy_nowfrom HP.  It doesn't work.  Then monitor does not show any signal, just a blank black screen.
    Not wanting to waste more money on adpaters that may not work, I want to get a new monitor that would definitely be compatible with the remaining HDMI output on the Mini. 
    What types of input on the monitor should I be looking for?  Would another NEC PA series monitor work?  It has a display port as well as DVI-D inputs. 

    You need to get a monitor that supports either HDMI or preferibly DVI-D and use the Apple supplied HDMI to DVI Adapter in the HDMI port.
    Optionally you could move your current NEC PA241W to the HDMI to DVI Adapter with a DVI-D cable and then get a MiniDisplay to VGA Adapter for your VGA display.

  • Can you use a VGA monitor on the Mac Pro model?

    I'm considering getting a new Mac Pro to replace my beloved PowerMac G4 MDD. I have a ViewSonic Graphics Series 19" CRT monitor (VGA) that I use as a palette monitor, with a 19" SyncMaster LED as my main monitor (DVI). My PowerMac's video card has both DVI and VGA ports.
    Will I be able to use my VGA monitor with the basic Mac Pro (MB871LL/A)? Will a DVI/VGA video port adapter work, and if so, will it work well? Thanks.

    I had two 19" Viewsonic WS monitors hooked up to my X1900XT on my MacPro and it worked just fine with the VGA/DVI adapters (I got the small 2" white adapters that don't have any "cord" in the middle. I swapped them out for two 22" WS Acer monitors and now use the DVI inputs and I am still happy.

  • Suggestion for Apple: MacBooks as terminals for the new Mac Pro

    Suggesting Apple to enable using MacBooks as terminals for the new Mac Pro if connecting through the thunderbolt.
    I am planning to get a new Mac Pro this month and use it as a 'portable' workstation since it weighs only 5kg.
    I am working on scienctific research which requires travels quite often.
    I want to have a workstation with me when I'm off-site so that I can work without worrying about the network connection.
    It would be great if I can use Macbook Air as a display, keyboard and touchpad for the Mac Pro.
    I will be fully geared by taking a Mac Pro and a MacBook Air with me where ever I travel.

    I don't know much about Thunderbold connections.
    Especially how does it combine PICe and DisplayPort signal together.
    I would like the MacBook serve as an external screen and an external PCIe video card to the Mac Pro, together with its touchpad and keyboard connected to the Mac Pro as an external USB keyboard and touchpad.
    In this case, one may not even boot into the OS on the MacBook side, just need proper drivers in the Mac Pro side for the 'external PCIe video card', keyboard and touchpad.

  • How can i use my smart TV as a second monitor for my Power mac (2010) via HDMI cable? i've made the connection but no options show in system prefs display.

    How can i use my smart TV as a second monitor for my Power mac (2010) via HDMI cable? i've made the connection but no options show in system prefs display.
    the computer:Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.9.5), 2 x 2.66 Ghz 6-Core intel Xeon
    the TV: LG Smart tv

    The Mac uses a highly-parameterized universal Driver for every display. The parameters are set at certain times when a query is sent to your display. The display MUST answer with its name and capabilities, or the screen stays dark. A TV set that is off or "not paying attention" because it is set to a different port when the query occurs will rarely answer, and so will often remain dark.
    You can use tools in the System Report to see whether your display has been detected at all. If it has, the report will look something like this, but its name will appear:
    The times when the query is sent are:
    • at Startup
    • at wake from sleep
    • when the Mac-end of the cable is inserted
    • when using the Option ( Detect Displays ) button in displays preferences

  • Can RAM for the previous Mac Pros be used in the new revisions?

    I ordered a Mac Pro last month along with 2 4GB RAM kits from Crucial (see details below)
    4GB kit (2GBx2), 240-pin DIMM, DDR2 PC2-5300 memory module
    Module Size: 4GB kit (2GBx2)
    Package: 240-pin DIMM
    Feature: DDR2 PC2-5300
    Specs: DDR2 PC2-5300 • CL=5 • Fully Buffered • ECC • DDR2-667 • 1.8V • 256Meg x 72
    The RAM has arrived but the Mac Pro is yet to ship and today I received an email from Apple I can:
    1. Keep your original Mac Pro order at the same price.
    2. Cancel this order and place an order for the new Mac Pro.
    The RAM kits cost me £360 already so i hope i can use use the sticks in the new machine. Anyone know the answer to this? Before I decide what to do.
    Thanks...

    Crucial should be understanding, one of the best in customer support - and satisfaction. And most likely to have worked with Apple to have chips.

    This is NOT for Apple Mac Pro, just an "example."
