Is it possible to screen share an old iMac running 10.4 with a new Mac Mini running Yosemite

Is it possible to screen share an old iMac running 10.4 with a new Mac Mini running Yosemite. I am trying to bring the old iMac screen up on the Yosemite system

Hello! Not out of the box: OS X Mountain Lion: About screen sharing  You'll have to look for third-party options like Teamviewer

    Will my 5 year old ( hardly used ) LG flatron monitor 1730S work with a new Mac Mini ? Thank You. Robert.

    You don't say what sort of Inputs it has available, but if VGA, DVI or HDMI then yes, you might need to buy an adapter of some type though ...

  • Will any of my old displays work with the new Mac Mini

    I am thinking of getting a new Mac Mini.     What I need to know is if any of the monitor/displays I have here can bem used.
    I have two old video monitors I used to used with my old  mac mini (Samsung Symc Master 770 and old little Princeton  - VL158) , a
    n early 2006 iMac 20" (which I don't think I could use as a monitor from what I read) and an little Samsung TV with USB and HDMI connectors.,
    Can I use any of these? 
    Need new connector cords?   Mini-DVI to VGA adapter?
    Thanks

  • External backup drive will not mount on new mac mini. still works fine on the old one. new one is running mavericks

    I just bought new-to-me mac mini running OSX mavericks.
    Trying to migrate from old mac mini using simpletech external hard drive.
    It still mounts on my old mac mini (system 10.5) but will not mount or show up when I plug it in to the new mac mini running mavericks.
    Any ideas?

    Boot from the Install Disc & see if they show up, not grayed out in Disk Utility.
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    We were thinking along the same lines. While at home I dug up a firewire enclosure and put a bootable GUID formatted drive in it (that I had in one of the usb enclosures) and started her computer holding down the option key and then chose to boot from the external firewire. All usb drives are now mounting upon connection. I asume that her drive has bad sectors on it (even though the SMART status says it's OK) and is not loading all the drivers properly for USB to mount. I was suspicious from the beginning that the OS was corrupt when she first had me look at it. It was at that point that I booted it in target mode, connected to my Macbook Pro, and then CCC'd to a usb drive that I had. I then had a couple of difficulties installing the new OS. Should have known......
    I am now going to put a new drive in it for her and she'll be up and running.
    Thanks so much for your help and thoughts that got me thinking as well.

  • Can I use an old Apple Cinema Display with new Mac Mini?

    Currently I have an early PowerMac G5 that I bought used recently. It came with an Apple Cinema Display (20", I think - resolution is 1680x1050). The Cinema Display does not have a separate power cord so it must be powered from the PowerMac. My question is this - would I be able to use this monitor with a new Mac Mini - would it be able to power it the same as the PowerMac is currently.
    Thanks in advance for your help. This is the first Mac I have owned since a "Fat Mac" many years ago (one of those with the 9" black and white screen).

    Are you sure you have a 20" CINEMA display? I have 2x 20" CINEMA displays and both have their own power cord (and power brick). Maybe yours is a STUDIO display??? IDK if STUDIO displays worked that way or not, I've never owned one. Anyways, I have a 20" CINEMA display connected to my new Mac mini (early 2009) via the MiniDVI>DVI adapter and it works fine but is powered through the power cord though. I too have a PowerMac G5 (quad) but my PowerMac cannot power the displays without them being plugged in via their power cords. I am thinking you must have a STUDIO display or maybe there was an earlier version of the CINEMA display that could work that way.... idk. Mine were purchased at the end of 2005 along with the PowerMac G5 (quad).

  • Is it possible to use my iMac G5 Monitor with my Intel Mac Mini

    Hello,
    I have an iMac G5, and just received a new Mac Mini for my birthday. I don't have any display yet for the Mac Mini, so I would like to know if it's possible to link my Mac Mini to my iMac G5 so I can run the Mac Mini in my iMac Monitor ?
    If there's a way to do it, can it be done even when I'm running Windows (PC) on my Mac Mini ?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Generally, no, that is not something that would work well. There is no video input on your iMac. So, you would have to use an adapter.
    You can read a little bit about this here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3249369&#3249369
    That discussion is regarding a XBox. But, the principle and options would be the same.
    The Hybrid adapter that is discussed there would be the best option for you in terms of hardware solutions. But, you would need the appropriate cables to connect from the Mac Mini to the Elgato Hybrid and then to your PowerBook (some of which may come with the adapter).
    As for a network and software solution, take a look at this discussion for a recommendation and description of a possible method:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3053364&#3053364
    I hope this helps.

  • How do I remove my AddressBook folder from dropbox on my old imac and transfer it to my new imac with lion so I can use iCloud?

    Is there a reason that you don't want to use Migration Assistant to automatically transfer all your user files from one Mac to the other?
    If you absolutely want to do it manually, copy the contents of the user/Library/Application Support/AddressBook folder from the old Mac to the new. Use Dropbox or a flash drive or whatever you prefer, but it must end up in the same location you copied it from. You must hold down the Option key and click the Go menu in Finder to see the Library folder, or use Go - Go to Folder and type in "~/Library".

  • 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 ...

  • Can I hook up New Mac Mini to my old imac?

    Can I hook up New Mac Mini to my old imac to share the display? I want to upgrade my iMac since I can not add more memories... but thought may be I can add New Mac Mini and use that along with my old iMac.. Will this work?

    If your configuration supports Target Display mode, use that. If not, not without a standalone monitor and a product such as ScreenRecycler.

  • Transfer old MacBook Pro files to new Mac mini via wifi stuck

    I'm going through the setup of my new Mac mini.  The first thing it is having me do is transfer old data and applications via wifi from my MacBook Pro (running snow leopard) it is taking forever (over 24 hours now) and apparently stuck.  How do I stop and restart the transfer using Ethernet cable or FireWire to speed up the transfer process. This is a brand new mini running some version of mountain lion. Thanks!

    How are you transferring the files now?
    To me the easiest, most reliable, and generally fastest method is..
    With both computers powered down connect them back to back with a firewire cable
    Boot the old computer into Firewire Target Disk Mode by holding down the T key during boot
    Boot the new computer and the old computer should appear on the desktop as a firewire drive
    On the new computer launch Migration Assistant (found in /Applictions/Utilities)
    Follow MA's on screen prompts to transfer the data from another disk drive (the old computer running in Firewire Target Disk mde) This last step is best performed during the initial setup of the new computer when prompted early in the initial setup phase

  • Transfering Clarisworks documents from my old Performa to my new Mac Mini

    Hello!
    I suppose it's too much to hope that I'll be able to transfer the word processor and spreadsheet documents created in Clarisworks on my old, trusty Performa (still runs great) to Appleworks on my new Mac Mini using my old backup floppies and a USB floppy disk drive?
    If that won't work, what would the easiest way be?
    Thanks!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions,
    Well, I'd say give it a try. There are a number of routes, including using an ethernet crossover cable to form a mini network, burning the files to a CD (if you have a burner that will work with the Performa), or emailing the files to yourself from the Performa then retrieving them on the Mini. I'd say that the USB drive is the simplest so see if it works. If it doesn't work then post back and we'll see what is possible.
    My real concern will be opening them once they are on the Mini which is running OSX. You can probably run Clarisworks in Classic mode.
    Cheers,
    Brian

  • How can I connect a new mac mini to my old vga monitor? There doesn't seem to be a mini display port

    I have an old monitor with VGA port, and was wondering if anyone knows how to connect this to the new mac mini. Older mac minis have the mini display port, and if that were the case I would use the mini display port to VGA adapter, but this new mac mini doesn't have one. It just has the thunderbolt port or HDMI port for displays... I've been looking for an adapter to connect my display to one of these but cannot seem to figure it out. Any advice? Thanks in advance.

    The Thunderbolt port is the one to use; you use the same mini-DisplayPort adapter you used for the older minis.
    Regards.

  • How to connect an old ADC flat panel to the new Mac mini?

    I am thinking of getting one of these new Mac mini's for the kids in the den and I have an old 20" flat panel ADC from Apple that is still going strong. Is there an adapter that will work with this configuration?
    Thanks,
    West

    Somewhat ungainly, but you'll need the mini-DVI-DVI adaptor (supplied with the new mini), and a DVI-ADC adaptor (http://store.apple.com/us/product/M8661LL/B?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MjE0NTg4NA)

    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:
