I have a new Mac Mini and all my software is up to date. My video keeps acting up, flashing and not allowing me to work. This was happening with my old machine as well. Is this a problem with my monitor or do I have a bug somewhere in my system?
I have a new Mini and updated software. My monitor will keep flashing back and forth, shrinking the display and not allowing me to work. Sometimes clicking the mouse helps, sometimes clicking into the screen but it freezes up and won't allow me to work. Is this a monitor problem or is there some bug in my system.
Try just holding down on the power and home buttons to restart it. Thomas R. doesnt know what he was talking about. The tool is not made for jailbraeking and is not related to jailbreaking. If you want to get the link again, let me know, as I reapir iPhones, have been using it for years, nad it does NOT void your warranty. It simply reboots your device.
My apologies for all of the new people on this site who are novices to anything beyond iTunes or the device itself. Hopefuly your problem is solved.

I have a new mac mini I5 - I cannot find and copy Maverick onto a flash so that I can install on the other 7 iMacs - don't want to download from App store to each machine - files too big
Please assistYou need to download it on one of the iMacs via App store but not install since after it installs the installation download gets deleted.
After it is downloaded you can copy to a USB device. You can also make a bootable USB install device by:
downloading and using DiskMaker X -
I have a new Mac Mini, and I want to send raw video...
I have a new Mac Mini (Lion), and I want to send raw video to the Internet, using Ustream, Skype or other services. I don't need cameras, microphones, or other periphrals. My video consists of 1 volt composite (from a video switcher), and the audio is full stereo at 600 ohm line level on each channel. What do I need?
I have a video capture card on my Windows machine; but the results have been crappy at best. And the so-called "Geek Squad" at Best Buy (where I bought the Mac Mini) have been less than helpfull. Further, the on-line Apple Store shows nothing. Maybe someone here has an idea.You are going to need a video capture device of some sort and I believe the following will be suitable.

I have a new Mac mini- changed from Windows XP. I have a peculiar problem. I use an Acer monitorwith the Mac which works fine when the Mac is 'un-sleeped'. But, if I have shutdown the Mac the Acer does not recognisethe start up - at least it shows nothing on screen. When I have shut down - nowknowing the problem, I use an old Samsung monitor to cope with the start up -it does so fine - and then put the Mac to 'sleep', then change monitors andrestart the Mac - the Acer is now fine. I am using the same cables for theSamsung and the Acer. The Acer had no problems with my old Windows system -from sleep or shut down. I really do not think there is anything wrong with theAcer - could it be some sort of recognition problem? Please can anyone assist.Donald Picton
I posted the same question a day ago with no response. I'm using an Acer x193w. You actually don't have to switch monitors to get it to work. Just make sure you turn off the monitor after shutting down the Mac mini (actually push the power button on the monitor, not just let it go to sleep). If you turn on the monitor (push the power button on the monitor), then power up the Mac mini, the monitor is recognized. The issue didnt exist with Snow Leopard for me. It only started after I started using Lion. Hope this issue gets fixed In a future OS update.

I have a new mac mini, do I have enough space to download Windows 7, and can I do it through online purchase or disc? My bootcamp assistant mentions using a USB flash drive???
Yes you do have enough storage, you only need let's say 10GB to properly install Windows with a few (very small) programs. You'd be best of just going to a store and buying a Windows 7 install DVD (not an upgrade one!), or using one that you might have laying around at home. You can also purchase Windows 7 via the Microsoft online store and than burn it to a DVD. It is possible that installing from a USB-drive works, but I have not tried this yet.

I have a new MAC MINI and I want to install a second monitor. I have one connected to the HDMI and it works. I can't get a signal to the other one. It is connected from the thunderbolt to its HDMI port. How can I make it work?
Could be a bad cable or bad Thunderbolt port.
You have 90 days of free telephone support on a new device. You can call them at 1-800-MY-APPLE. Have your Mini's serial number handy
You can also make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I have a new Mac Mini and a 7 year old Mac monitor. The connectors dont match. What to do?
I suspect the monitor has an ADC connector

If so you need one of these:

I have a new mac mini with mt lion where is the os on this computer
I have a new mac mini with mt lion where is the os on this computer. It came with Mt Lion on it
You have a couple of options for booting OS X.
One is to use the OS X Recovery Disk Assistant to copy the Mountain Lion Recovery HD to a USB thumb drive. A 4GB thumb drive is sufficient as the Disk Assistant only needs 1GB.
A second option would be to use a cloning software like SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner to clone your existing Macintosh HD to an external USB drive. This would give you an external bootable copy of what you have now. -

I'm trying to sync my iPhone4s, but everytime iTunes tries to sync, I get a message "This iPhone cannot sync because the sync session failed to start." I've tried restoring my phone, and all my software is up to date. It won't sync any of my songs/apps back to my phone. Somebody please help!
Try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
Before that, back up your device, explained here:

My old Mac died. I had it backed up to a Time Machine external drive (fortunately). I have a new Mac. I want to get my entire iTunes library from the Time Machine drive to the new Mac. I want not only the music files but all the "library" metadata, playlists, song rankings, unique genre designations. How do I do this?
No backup is a huge mistake.
You can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
