  • Creating Partition in Mac Mini Hard Drive

    i Have buy a mac mini a week ago, but before three days ago, some file got corrupted, and it does not start, only the password screen appears, when i entered the password, the screen appears again. and it continues. Now i want to partition the mac mini hard drive. i have only one drive, and i want to create another partition in the hard drive. when i create another partition  through the disk utility , i gives error, and cannot create the partition. i acutally want that first i make partition in the hard drive, and after using the "restore from time machine option" to install the mac osx lion in the system. Please help me in make the partition in the hard drive.

    Apple themselves don't specify hard drive RPM because they buy a number of different drives, some apparently 4200 some apparently 5400.
    It's no surprise that your retailer wants you to buy a G5 though, and is trying to upsell one based on the minis weaknesses - after all, they get more money from a G5 sale than from a mini. They may also be considering your planned use of Photoshop as a stumbling block to effective use of a mini, but the question really is what you intend to use Photoshop to do. If you're a hobbyist, the system is fine and will work more than adequately - particularly if you max out the RAM. If you're a professional user with pro-level expectations, then a mini likely wouldn't be sufficient, not so much due to the drive speed (powerbook users have run Photoshop verisons for years quite happily on what are predominently 4200rpm drives) but because for pro work, Photoshop needs a lot of hard drive space and a great deal of RAM.
    On the basis of what you've posted, I'd say your retailer is more interested in their profit than your need. Chances are, if you run PS on the G4 listed in your profile, you're already running on a drive of similar general performance.

  • What is the brand of optical disk medium to use with mac MINI super drive?

    TDK brand of blank optical disk medium on my mac (super drive) is not reading the optical disk I put in there to burn to. The genius at the apple store put in a Memorex brand of optical disk medium and it worked. What is the consensus for buying blank medium that will work with the .mac MINI super drive it seems TDK doesn't work? What is the brand and type to go with?

    You need a regular optical digital cable, often called a Toslink, with a 3.5 mm miniplug adapter on the Mac mini end. The port is a combo port. When you insert the optical cable's miniplug into the port, because it is a tiny bit longer than a regular 3.5 mm miniplug, it activates the digital audio. Usually the port's output is analog by default.

  • Programs repeatedly crashing on my late 2012 Mac Mini Fusion Drive

    I have a late 2012 Mac Mini Fusion Drive 2.6ghz, 16gig RAM running Mac OSX 10.9.4 . For the past week or so I have had a number of programs - both Apple and third party apps crash repeatedly, I have repaired permissions and restarted numerous times but nothing seems to fix it. For example Mail would crash each time I cancelled a password being accepted by Mail in a particular account, Safari has crashed for various reasons. Apple Motion has also crashed more times in the past day or so than it ever has in the past year. It's crashing when I try to add a point or node to a line in an animation I'm finishing.
    Does anybody have any idea why this is happening now and does anybody know how to fix it?

    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.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • Need a webcam for PowerBook G4 running Mac OS 10.4.11 -- help!!!

    Hi - i am looking for a webcam for my PowerBook G4 running Mac OS 10.4.11. No Apple service center or other computer store in India has any idea of what camera could work. Logitech sells the QuickCam Vision Pro for Mac, but that is too expensive for me. The ones I liked (from Logitech) are the Webcam C200/C250M/C500/C600 and the QuickCam for Notebooks - though I don't know if any of these is compatible with my G4.
    Any suggestions? I'm open to suppliers other than Logitech, as long as it does not cost more than $60.
    Please help me ASAP - thanks in advance

  • Which adapter do I need to connect my new Mac Mini to my old Apple Cinema HD monitor?

    I have a perfectly good Apple Cinema HD monitor (model M8536), but it has an ADC connection, and my new Mac Mini isn't compatible with it. I've bought a new screen for the Mac Mini, but there are going to be times when I need to run two screens in parallel on the Mini. Can anyone tell me which adapter I need to do this? I've looked at the Apple DVI to ADC connector  (M8661LL), but I'm not sure this is what I need, and they're quite pricey, even second-hand on eBay, so I don't want to make a mistake!
    Thanks!

    Thanks, dwb ... unfortunately I don't think I'd get very much for my old display, it's so old (> 10 years)! But it still works perfectly, and I'm loathe to throw it away ... and there are going to be times when I need the two screens, so even though I've bought a new 27" Philips monitor, it would be good just to buy an adapter to hook up the old screen ...

  • Need Help Deciding on a MAC Mini

    Hi All,
    Quick question for the experts here, because, I am actually torn right now on spending some money for a new Mini.
    I am currently using a 2006 iMac, 2.16Ghz Intel Core 2 DUO with an ATI Radeon X1600.
    I do movie converting, HD TV streaming (Eye TV 250+) unit, some web surfing, Music conversions, and, stream Audio.Video from my iMac to my iPhone/iPad when I'm away from my house and Garageband Recording (usually an 8 to 10 track recording)
    all seems to work well, but, within the last year, even after a full reinstall of OS X, things are starting to bog down. I am running Lion on it now, and, for the most part, it's "OK", but, I kinda think it could be a little snappier and a little faster.
    So, I'm looking at buying the i7 MAC Mini.
    My question is, will this be a step forward, or, is my iMac a little better? (I don't know. this might be a stupid question). Basically, will I notice a HUGE improvement.
    As I type this, I have the MINI in my shopping cart and I am approved for the 1 year finance plan. All I need to do is click "Purchase", but, I wanted to get some opinions on this before going ahead with it.
    Any help anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated 

    Yes. I have a monitor ready for it. I also have an external CD/DVD Drive as the internal in my iMac hasn't been too reliable lately.
    I agree about the price of apple's memory. What I did was, as soon as I ordered the Mini (Yes, I went ahead and ordered it. i couldn't wait any longer), I went to the crucial website and got an 8gb memeory kit for $37.00, so, I was pretty happy about that
    Anyway, thanks for the reply. I figured I would notice an improvement as well. I'm thinking, ESPECIALLY with video conversions

  • I need some help on the mac mini...

    Ok I am almost completely sold on the Mac Mini... I just need a little help on
    the configureations. I want to know how big of a hard drive I should go with, and how much memory to get. I would mainly be using this Mac for my music collection (500 songs max) and a movie collection (20 movies). Any ideas? Thanks.

    What may be more cost effective is to get the smaller hard drive in the mini and get 2 external drives. It will 1) be much cheaper than getting a large internal HD for your comp 2) it will give you the opportunity to back up all your stuff, considering you should always have a backup 3) these external drives run at 7200rpm, whereas the drive in your mini runs at only 5400 rpm, thus meaning that you can access your files more quickly and your system will run faster. you can keep all your system stuff on the internal and if you get two external HD's, you can use one of them as the main drive to store your movies and such, and the second to back it all up. Bestbuy has 250GB firewire Western Digial Mybook external drives for $110 each, like
    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7643071&type=product&productCatego ryId=pcmcat107700050005&id=1134698030480
    Also, I don't agree with the poster who said get as fast of a CPU as you can afford. The difference between the 1.66 and the 1.83 is negligible at best. The average user would never be able to tell the difference. The premium you are paying for is the upgrade from the combo drive to the superdrive. So, unless you plan on burning a bunch of DVD's, you don't really need the superdrive. AND if you plan on burning a lot of DVD's, you'd be better off with an external FW media drive anyways, because the superdrives are very finnicky.
    Buying two of these drives costs you less than upgrading to a 160 GB internal HD in the mini. SO, my advice would be to get the lower end model, with 2GB of RAM. Buy two of the external HDD's that I linked, and if you need a DVD burner, buy one like this
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827136112
    To compare, Option 1 would be the 1.83 Mini with 2 gigs of RAM and the 160GB hard drive for $1249
    Option 2 would be the 1.66 Mini with 2 gigs of RAM and stock HD for $849 + $220 for two 250 GB external Firewire Hard drives + $65 for an external FW DVD burner = $1134
    In my opinion, option 2 blows option 1 out of the water. Also, i always recommend 2GB of RAM, but 1GB will probably be sufficient if you need to save some money.

  • How do I connect my Sony HD video camera to work as my webcam on a mac-mini

    I have just purchased a 2.5GHz 4Mb mini-mac.  I am using a Samsung HD TV and want to use a Sony HD video camera as a webcam.  I have mini-display port, HDMI port and thunderbolt port on the mini-mac.  The video camera has mini HDMI port and I have mini HDMI to HDMI cable.  I also have HDMI to mini-disply connector.  So far I have tried connecting the TV via the HDMI to HDMI cable and the camera via mini HDMI to HDMI/HDMI mini-display convertor to the mini-mac.  The TV is showing the display but the video camera (turned on!) doesn't automatically appear or show in either Finder or as available when I am trying to set up Skype.  Then tried swapping the two around at the mini-mac with the TV now going through the HDMI to mini-display convertor and the camera going to the HDMI port.  Same results as previous set-up.
    Can this be made to work? Is there a HDMI to thunderbolt convertor that will work?   Is this plug and play technology or are there more complicated set-up [rocedures?  Any help much appreciated.

  • I want to create for the first time ever an iPhoto library on my Mac Mini from all of my seperate external hard drives over the years. Instead of filling my Mac Mini hard drive space with all of the pics can I import it to a seperate Apple hard drive.

    I want to creat for the first time on my Mac Mini an iPhoto library. I have many seperate hard drives with pics I want to import but are concerned I will fill the hard drive with pics alone. Can I install the pics on one larg (1TB) external apple hard drive and use iPhoto functions still with the pics being installed on a seperate drive from the iPhoto OS?

    This is our resident iPhoto guru, Terence Devlin's, advice:
    You can move your iPhoto Library to an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Once that is done you can import directly into the iPhoto library on the external HD.

  • How best to move user folder to a Mac Mini + external drive

    I am streamlining my desktop computer setup. Whereas before I was using a PowerMac G5 as my primary desktop computer, I realize I am using my MacBook Pro more often, so in the interests of conserving space, I will be switching over to a Mac Mini connected to my AV system for hosting all my iTunes music, videos, media, photos, etc.
    Here is where I need advice. My PowerMac has a lot more media on it than can fit on the internal hard drive of a Mac Mini. I have already secured a 1 TB external drive which will be permanently connected to the Mac Mini, but I am unsure as to how to best go about copying my data to it.
    My initial thought was that I could move the iTunes music folder to the external drive using the library consolidation feature, and I could copy my iPhoto library to it, then point the respective applications to the new location. However, I want the external to act as my home folder where the OS looks for all my personal data, including movies, documents, etc.
    I know there is a procedure for changing your home folder's location to an external drive, but because of the limited size of the Mac Mini's internal HD, I would like to use migration assistant when I first start using the Mac Mini. Should I hold off on moving the home folder until after I have migrated, or can it be done beforehand?
    Anyone have any thoughts or ideas? Thanks!

    Thanks for the procedure. It seems very easy, but I am wondering about the consequences depending on when I do it. For example, let's say I first copy my entire home folder to the 1 TB external drive, set up the PowerMac to use it as my home folder, then use migration assistant to import my user accounts, applications, and settings onto the Mac Mini. Will it try to extract the data from the external drive onto the Mac Mini's internal drive? There won't be enough room for everything.
    As an alternative, I can move my iTunes library and iPhoto library onto the 1 TB external first, keeping the rest of my user data in its original location. Then it can fit on the Mac Mini, and I can do the migration, then move the home folder to the 1TB external once it's all up and running on the new computer.
    Which will work best?
    I had heard about people using a single drive as their home folder across multiple computers, but that is not the case for me. My MacBook Pro will become my primary computer, but I intend to keep it clear of media, whereas the MacMini will become my media server for my AV system in my living room. The 1 TB will be constantly connected to the Mac Mini, so there shouldnt be a problem with starting it up once the user folder location has been moved.

  • Is it possible to upgrade the mac mini hard drive?

    I have a 2009 mac mini (so before the most recent redesign). Would Apple be able to upgrade my hard drive to a 500gb or 1TB drive? Is it feasible to do it myself?

    Michael, you did ask "is it feasible to do it myself?" so Jolly Giant reasonably showed you some legitimate online guides which confirmed it is. 
    You need to decide if money is no object (in which case ask Apple, and they'll charge you a lot) or consider DIY if you're handy with tools. 
    Sure, there's a risk, but it's small and that comes back to balancing the risk against the costs.  Many, many people have upgraded the HD in their mini, just as you asked, for just the cost of the new disc: c.$50??
    "dubious and invasive"  is a bit extreme.  How else do you think you might swap out the HD?

Maybe you are looking for
