I'm unable to connect to my mac mini server remotely since the upgrade to OSX 10.8.5. I was able to connect without problem (from an Ipad and a Mac Pro workstation)before the upgrade which I applied last week.

I installed an update to OSX 10.8.5 last week. I've been unable to use Remote Desktop VNC from my Mac Pro working station or use Mocha Vnc Lite from my Ipad to gain access to my mac mini server since I applied the update. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi David,
thank you. I tried all the steps and the thing different is that now with my usual user the CC app crashes silently, but Photoshop and Illustrator generate a crash report with this message:
/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CC/Adobe Photoshop CC.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/amtlib.framework/Versions/A/amtlib
abort() called
terminate called throwing an exception
With the Adobe user it runs with no problems, I even tried to do a "diff" of running user processes between the two users and remove all launchers and extensions but it's still the same.
I am a developer so I use XCode and other "dotfiles" and dirs within my home directory, I'm also using Ruby/RVM, NodeJS and some other. Can some of this stuff cause conflicts?
Thank you
Vito

Connect your iPad to your computer and run iTunes. Select your iPad in iTunes and try to run the update there. Updating requires a lot less free space on the iPad when updating through iTunes on a computer because the update files will be downloaded to and extracted on the computer.

2010 Mac mini server remote install OS X failure

I tested re-installing OS X remotely to my 2010 Mac mini server. It worked the first time. I got to the installation process, and abandoned it without actually doing anything.
But when I tried again, it failed, and I have not been able to get it to work ever since. I went to a local Apple shop and tested at its Genius bar. People there cannot figure out the problem. They exchanged my unit for a new one.
I took the new unit home, tried, and it failed again. Then I called Apple Care. They cannot pin-point the problem, but suspected that, since I failed with two units, the problem may be with the computer that has the DVD. I am not sure about his. Here I post my story for help. The details:
1. The OS X Server installation DVD (which came with the mini) was put in a 13" 2009 Macbook Pro. There I ran the Remote Install OS X application. Selected the Installation DVD.
2. Then I started the Mac mini server, holding the down Opt key. The Installation DVD appeared from my local network. However when I selected the DVD and clicked the arrow sign under it, things went wrong. A circle with a line segment appeared briefly (indicating a problem, I think). Then the mini simply went to boot from its own hard drive where the original OS X was.
Help and suggestions are very much appreciated.
Additional information:
Remote Disc works fine. From my Mac mini, after booting into the original OS, I can see and open DVDs in the Macbook Pro.

Target disk mode method works fine. I can boot my mac mini from its installation DVD placed in my macbook pro, connected to the mini through firewire. So I don't think there is any hardware problem.
I played with a few other things. First I used another DVD, this time the one that came with my 2009 macbook pro, a non-server version OS X. When I tried to remote install it to my mini, the mini can still see the DVD but it hung after I chose to boot from it. It just showed a big circle with a line segment. It did not revert to boot the OS on its own hard drive.
Next I again ran remote install on macbook, but booted the mini to its own hard drive. From there
I changed its start up disk to Network Startup, and rebooted. The mini can find nothing on the local network.

I just upgraded my iPad mini to the new retina display. Until today I was able yo connect to my home Wifi. Now suddenly I am not able yo connect to Wifi. What should I do.

Could someone hp me why I am not able yo connect to my home wifi. I was connected until 2 hours ago. Now I am unable yo connect.

Hello, Nanjos0103.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Sometimes a simple power cycle of your wireless router can resolve this issue. However, troubleshooting may be needed. Here is the best troubleshooting article to go through when experiencing this issue.

HT201320 How do I sync my email contacts from my iPad and my Mac so all addresses are shared with my iPhone as well?

I want my email addresses from my Mac and my iPad to appear in my contacts on my iPhone. Can you please tell me how I set it up so all my devices share the same contacts?

Your email provider needs to support IMAP. IMAP email accounts are kept in sync across devices. Older POP accounts are not. Check with your provider.
Best of luck.

Mac mini server cannot connect to keyboards

Just took my mac mini server in for degraded raid. Still under warranty. Raid was setup as mirrored for redundent backup. One of the drives failed and they found that one of my ram sticks was bad. Received my mini back with a new drive , ram, and a restored os which defeated the purpose of having a mirrored raid.... Thanks.... Now i have to setup and register the computer as new and it will not find my apple wireless keyboard. I have done all the reset tricks and still doesn't connect. I spent around 2 hours trying to navigate my way through applecare over the phone but my iPhone won't stay connected to a phone call long enough to get anywhere. And when I finally do their suggestion is use a USB keyboard. I don't own a USB keyboard, haven't in a decade. There are no appointments available with the only Apple store in this area and I'm sick of talking in circles to the scripted help over the phone. Does anyone have any answers other than buy more Apple stuff just to use my Apple stuff.
Sorry for the edit. ios is convinced I typed in something else so I had to go through and correct all of siris spell checks.

Did you consider using one of the "workarounds" below to run an existing version of the AD Module for PowerShell under a specific PowerShell version:
a. #require -version 3.0 (in ps1 script)
b. powershell -version 3.0

Whats a faster internet connection joining one or create one.i have one ps3 i imac 2 ipads and one macbook pro?

whats a faster internet connection joining one or create one.i have one ps3 one imac 2 ipads and one macbook pro?

For the AirPort Extreme Base Station to provide Internet access to network clients, it would need to be configured for: 1) Connection Sharing = Share a public IP address, and 2) Wireless Mode = Create a wireless network.
Although the option: Wireless Mode = Join a wireless network, exists for the Extreme, it really serves no purpose and should not be used.

Intel HD Graphics 3000 processor on the new Mac Mini Server

Does the Intel HD Graphics 3000 processor on the new Mac Mini Server support 3D Monitors?
I'm in the process of purchasing a 3D LED Monitor (27" S27A950D Series 9 LED 3D Monitor) and would like to know if it will be fully compatible with the Intel HD Graphics 3000 processor that came with the Mac Mini Server (Mid 2011).
Will it be possible to play 3D Games and watch 3D movies with this graphics card?
Also, does the new Mac Mini Server come with 1st or 2nd Generation Intel Core Processor?

Mac Mini Server i7 2.0 GHz mid 2011

Having recently upgrade two MacBook Pro's with Crucial's SSDs, and today increased the ram to 8GB on the newer MBP - I am now considering replacing the main drive (of two-being a server) with either the Samsung 840 EVO 1TB or the Crucial 1TB which have been successful in the two MBPs.
However, I am somewhat floored by some of the comments on this site re-the Mac Mini server. Ideally I would like to have put two 8GBs ram sticks to total 16 but I have read in Apple Spec that 8 is the maximum strength! I have also read that some users have floundered with SSDs in the Mac Mini and are not seemingly compatible.
I realize we may be pushing boundaries here, but as a Publisher the Mac Mini has been very adequate with Quark Xpress 10 and several Adobe applications. The problem is there is no midway position between the mini and the Mac Pro which is an expensive unit.
Any comments would be appreciated and having used Macs for the last 30 years I'm sorry that Apple hasn't filled a gap in the market with something that isn't exactly upgradeable. We all can't afford to rush out and buy Mac Pro's and have to make do with the tools we have.
Yes, we also have a 21" iMac but they're not upgradeable at all when we have to use as a minimum the Thunderbolt displays.

Thank you. Appreciate that. I actually don't use it as a server at all, so I plan to use the server drive as backup to the publications. I have considered buying the MacProp but when I visited the Southampton UK store two weeks ago, I noticed that the power lead going into the back of the Mac Pro had actually split all the way around leaving the core wires bare albeit for their protective sleeve. So if that's the quality of the build I thought this is a lot of money for what is a marketing design. Frankly that design doesn't work because for professional applications we users need something practical - not pretty.
However, the Mac Mini design for us is OK although I don't see the need to design computers as small as they can be. If something goes wrong you need to fix it not have to take a University degree in mechanics and electronics. Yes the previous G5 style computers were built like tanks, but something in between would suit us professionals. It doesn't need to fit in a ladies handbag but something of a cube 7 or 8 inches all around would be very practical. I hope Sir Jonathan reads this!
Thank you for your help.

Mac Mini Server Database Set-up - Configure & Implement Help

I have a database developer who is fluent in PC languages but not fluent with Macs who need serious help setting up my new database solution using my new Mac Mini Server running Lion 10.7.2. They are lacking the Mac knowledge - but are working on building my database / website solution - to be implementated on the Mac Mini Server.
Quickly...Here's what we are building. I own an Event Photography business specializing in Youth Sports. I bring all the Mac system Computers, (MacBook Pro's, 8 iPad 2's, AirPort Extreme, Mac Mini Server). *Important Note* - we will not ever have internet connection. We will offer photos taken directly at the Event...to View & Order via our wireless iPads (used simply for viewing photos). Customers are "viewing" photos from the iPads - accessing photos from our (off-line) website / database Hosted locally on our Mac Mini Server. All our Mac Computers are "wired" / connected / to the AirPort Extreme and "shared" on a local net (again with No-internet access).
Is there anyone out there who can help them by phone / internet / shared screen etc. to HELP SET UP THE MAC MINI SERVER - to make the database work? They need help with PHP, My SQL, Apachee set-up & configure questions.
This all sounds very complex to a Non-Database guy...but probably a simple check-list walk-thru helpful guide - for someone who's more knowledgeable with working with the Mac Mini Server.
Thanks....Anyone??

well to be honest I wanted a server to run more aspects of what I do privately (rather tahn at work) rather than use hosted accounts from disparate hosted providers on line. In partcular wanted a mail server to handle multiple mail domains, wiki server, web sever as per mail server and I was interested in what they would provide for iphone ipad etc as I have a few that I wanted to link to a server rather than individual macs and pcs
I also thought that Apple might bring their abilities to creating a great UI for essentially linux operating systems to a server os.
from initial views though it might have been easier (cheaper) to go to ubuntu and just their server version of linux. Anyway I will persist - I will read through the stuff you guys have linked me to - colinsolutions appears to have aimed me at some useful stuff. Looks like a bigger "project" than i imagined - but I havent looked at UNIX since 1986 so if I have to get into the command line it wont kill me I am sure.
thanks for the input - if anyone else can suggets good resources that would be appreciated.
ps simon - i found that the name for the server with the .local extension is visibile from the mac via finder and allows me to connect to the shared folder. so my server is sdhome - the shared resource is sdhome.local ... not sure if this helps but...

HT4929 I have a mac mini server and iCloud

running a mac mini server, system 10.6.8, purchased Jan, 2012 (same time purchased iMac with newer OS & no problems syncing). Can I upgrade this mac mini server to sync with iCloud?
thanks in advance

Welcome to the Apple community.
It's difficult to say whether your Mac will run Lion, and hence iCloud, without knowing the specifications. The specifications required for Lion are as follows:
An Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
Mac OS X v10.6.6 or later to install via the Mac App Store (v10.6.8 recommended); you can install without Mac OS X v10.6 by using an OS X Lion USB Thumb Drive, available on the Apple Online Store
7 GB of available disk space
2 GB of RAM
However, it is sometimes simpler just to try to purchase Lion from the Mac App Store, the Mac App Store will let you know whether your Mac is capable of running Lion.

Mac mini Server with normal Lion install?

Can i install on the Mac Mini Server (Mid 2011) a normal Lion OSX?
I don't want to use Server features, i only need the hardware power.
Is the Server pre-installed?

The 'proper' way is to have the Mac Mini Server running the version of OSX that's written for it, the hardware IS different hence there's (subtle yet real) differences to the software installed on each. I can't confirm if it would Boot from an external drive with the normal 10.7 softwarre as I've never tried that ...
If you don't need the Server applications then run Server, turn the services off and uncheck:
