Is the HDMI standard for the late 2012 Mac mini w/4000, 1.0, 1.1, or 1.2?

Hi, I can't seem to easily find this info. What is the actual HDMI standard used on a very late 2012 MacMini 6,2 with i7 and 4000 graphics?
I understand it can support up to 1920x1200 ... What standard is that?  ... And will an HDMI to Display Port cable supply that resolution? Thanks -Jeff

  • Can I use my late 2006 mac mini as an external drive for my late 2012 mac mini?

    I have a (late 2006) Mac mini that I would like to use as an external drive for my (late 2012) Mac mini.  Is this possible and can anyone suggest what cables would be needed.  I am aware that the ports are very different i.e firewire and thunderbolt.  Thanks in advance!

    - You can boo the old Mac in Targe Disk Mode and connect the two via FireWire (FW) You will need a FW 400 to FW 800 cable or a FW 800 or FW 400 cable and appropriate adopters
    How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode - Apple Support
    - Use the old Mac normally and setup Disk Sharing and access the old Mac via the network. The old Mac's disk will show up  under Devices on the new Mac. One you set up the old Mac yo do not need mouse or keyboard or monitor. You can also setup Screen sharing and actually use the old Mac from the new Mac.
    - Remove the HD from the old Mac and place it in an external USB enclosure of dock and connect it to the new Mac

  • Can the Late 2012 Mac Mini Server run on Lion, instead of Mountain Lion?

    Since I plan to use this (USB 2) device http://plugable.com/products/UGA-2K-A
    on a (yet to be ordered) Late 2012 Mac Mini Server, I am wondering:
    could that box run on Lion, instead of Mountain Lion ? (the usb 2 device has some M.L. issues still)
    I would not really need the server-part (only want the box because of the 2 disk drives), maybe that influences things.
    Would there be any possibility to order it from Apple with Lion instead of Mountain Lion pre-installed ?
    Could the latest hardware in the box not-function under Lion, thereby necessitating Mountain Lion ?
    Thanks to all for thinking with me!
    Best,
    Arie

    It's simple: you cannot use a version of OS X older than the version that the Mac shipped with.  At the very least, this is because the hardware may not be supported.

  • RAM Compatibility with the Late 2012 Mac Mini Core i7 Model (MD388LL/A)

    Hi,
    I ordered a Mac Mini for academic use and so far I have used this thing for 2 days but the problem is I usually have a lot of programs like SPSS, Excel, and Safari open at once to multitask and the 4 GB RAM isn't cutting it. I've had one instance where 3.9 GB of my RAM was put into use and I think a major culprit of the problem is that it runs on integrated graphics which takes RAM away.
    So I ordered myself some G.Skill SO-dimm RAM from newegg (thinking it would be compatible with the Mac Mini since it was 204-pin, 1600 Mhz, non-buffered or ECC memory):
    http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231580
    Upon reading the reviews, I found that 2-3 people had issues with their Mac Minis freezing up with the RAM stick (g.skill claims to have no tested this RAM for Mac, but the one specifically for RAM was $20 more expensive), while others say it runs fine on their Macs.
    Should this work? My hope is the people who froze up got bad sticks.

    Maximum Memory
    16 GB
    Memory Slots
    2 - 204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
    Only use RAM meeting the above specs. Stay away from memory commonly used in PCs like GSkill. Buy your memory from OWC or DataMem, although many here also recommend using Crucial. I would not buy memory from NewEgg because almost all of their products are geared to the non-Mac market and tend to be troublesome in Macs.

  • What is the Late 2012 Mac mini logic board chipset?

    Just curious to know what chipset the my Mac is using.
    Extra details: its the 2.5 GHz dual core entry level model.

    Is this not what you asked?

  • Display goes black (Late 2012 Mac Mini)

    Late 2012 Mac Mini (2.6Ghz Core i7, 16GB, Fusion drive).
    Was previously connected to an Apple LED Display (displayport).  I shuffled things around so it's connected to an Apple Thunderbolt Display and HP Compaq LA2405wg via HDMI --> DVI with the included adapter.
    Everything will work fine for a while, including NIC Teaming (LACP) with the internal gigabit & Display ethernet.
    Occasionally -- and especially today -- the Display will just go black, like it went to sleep.  I can still hear sound, and ethernet continues to work.
    Rebooting, or power-cycling the Display brings it back to life.
    I also noticed today that the Display will CONSITENTLY / repeatably go black after a very short time watching a video full-screen.  Full-screen video on the 2nd monitor connected to the HDMI port doesn't have this issue.
    Anybody else having this problem?

    I purchased the Late 2012 Mac Mini on 11/21/12.
    I received the Thunderbolt Display on 9/20/11.
    It just blacked-out on me AGAIN, and this time neither power-cycling nor rebooting brought it back.
    I plugged in my old LED Cinema Display (displayport) into the Mac Mini until I can get this sorted out.

  • Upgrade logic board in late 2012 Mac Mini?

    Can I upgrade the logic board in the late 2012 Mac Mini? I have a dual core and I see 2.6 quads out there. Just wondering if it just works by swapping it out.
    thanks!

    thanks! I don't intend on buying for about a year and by then all the used Quad minis will be a year older; the replacement Logic boards will still be new. Unless I can find a quad core mini still in box.

    Hi there,
    The simplest way is to drag it across wirelessly using the 'Airdrop' application once both computers are near one another. 'Airdrop' can be found near the top, on the left hand side menu, within 'Finder'.

  • Late 2012 Mac Mini display goes to black for a few seconds at random intervals

    I have a late 2012 Mac Mini, Ivy Bridge, connected to a 24" Samsung LCD dsplay,using the HDMI to DVI video cable that came with the Mac Mini.  At random times when I am doing something or browsing the web, the screen will go totally black and then revert to the proper display.  This Mac Mini is connected to a 2 port KVM, however I never see this behavior when the KVM is switched over to the PC.  Has anyone else seen this behavior?

    Welcome to the family. Search this forum for the main thread for this problem titled: "mac mini 2012 video blinking out".

  • How do i wipe a late 2012 mac mini server for resale?

    I am wanting to sell my late 2012 Mac Mini Server and i would like to wipe and reset it.

    Before you sell or give away your computer, in addition to the steps mentioned in this support article, take these steps:
    1. Run Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test. The buyer will do this (or he should), and you don't want to be surprised by the results.
    2. Reset the PRAM and the SMC, which might contain personal information.
    3. If you set a firmware password, remove it by running Firmware Password Utility in Recovery mode.
    4. If you activated FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, turn it off.
    5. If you use Boot Camp, the partition must be deleted.
    6. If you created any other data partitions on the internal drive, remove them in Disk Utility.
    7. If the machine has an internal hard drive, erase the one remaining data partition with the option to zero out data. An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
    You can't legally or practically transfer any software downloaded from the Mac App Store to the new owner of the machine, even if it was free. That includes OS X, so if you upgraded to OS X 10.7 or later, you must reinstall an older OS, either from the installation media, if applicable, or by starting up in Internet Recovery mode (option-command-R at the startup chime.) If you installed from physical media, deliver those to the new owner.
    If you're selling the machine, or donating it in working order, and it originally shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, then you have the option of installing either from the discs that came with it or from a retail Snow Leopard disc (which you must then transfer to the buyer.) The buyer should understand that if he doesn't get the original discs from you, he won't get the bundled iLife applications or the Apple Hardware Test. Replacements for the original discs can be ordered from Apple.
    The new owner will have to redownload any software that came from the App Store, including OS X upgrades, under his or her Apple ID. If you ever updated the bundled iLife applications (Garage Band, iMovie, and iPhoto) through the App Store, you can't transfer those either. The buyer will have to purchase them.
    Remove the machine from your list of registered products. If it's still covered by an AppleCare Protection Plan, transfer the coverage to the new owner by following the instructions in the AppleCare Terms and Conditions (under the heading "Transfer of Plan.")

  • Why does my late 2012 mac mini flicker like a VHS tape when on 1080p via HDMI?

  • Late 2012 Mac mini upgrade ssd - also install parallels 8 and windows 7

    Late 2012 Mac mini (16gb memory) SSD install - samsung 840 pro 512 gb.  I am looking to install this new SSD as possibly a dual drive setup almong with the stock HDD 500gb in order to: make the system faster (with more storage etc.), possibly use the stock drive as a backup drive and I also want to run parallels 8 with windows 7.
    I have ordered the data doubler kit from Owc and am wondering exactly how to setup properly.  Can I simply install new drive in the upper bay (and move stock drive to lower bay)? Then migrate the data from the stock drive then after that's complete run the setup for parallels?  I am also confused as far as using trim enabler or not?  I was also wondering how much space/memory is recommended for windows 7 partition?
    -Thanks in advance for your suggestions

    NOTE: A small number of 2012 units were shipped with the drive mounted in the upper drive bay rather than the more typical lower bay shown in this video. If you have a 2012 or later model, you will want to determine the configuration of your Mac mini's drives prior to ordering. To do this, open Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.app and click on the grey drive icon at the left-edge of the window. If you see "Lower" after the "Connection ID" at the bottom-left corner of the window, you may proceed using the standard installation instructions. If you see "Upper" then you have a special configuration which will need additional components, and you will need to also refer to the Addendum video.
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/DIYIMM11D2/
    Some users have reported problems with an SSD being the boot drive in the upper bay. They have not reported problems with a HD boot from either bay To avoid the problem I would move the HD (if it is in the lower bay) to the upper bay and install the SSD in the lower bay.
    I allocated 64 GB for Win 7 in Parallels abd 4 GB Of 16 installed). You can change them later after you install so it is not that importent what you specify initially.

  • Does anyone know how to update OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.1. to 10.8.2. on a late 2012 Mac mini. All I get are 'not compatible' messages even using supplementary updates etc?

    Does anyone know how to update OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.1. to 10.8.2. on a late 2012 Mac mini. All I get are 'not compatible' messages even using supplementary updates etc?

    It appears that many of the problems with the HDMI are the "monitors" that are being used. Samsung and Vizeo both DO NOT support a computer input on HDMI only VGA. There probably are others, manuals must be read to confirm compatability.
    I strongly believe that the reason the 10.8.2 update was pulled is due to the fact (it happened to me) that the new Disk Utility creates a Fusion drive if aftermarket SSDs are added to the system. I think Apple wants this propriatary Fusion Drive to be something you buy from them not a "homebrew" for lots less money.

  • My late 2012 mac mini boots slow with new ssd drive

    So here is the situation.  I purchased a 128gb ssd drive, installed it a usb enclosure, formatted it to Mac OS Extended (Journaled), cloned it with carbon copy cloner 3,   used the option key during boot up and selected the ssd drive and it booted my mac mini and it functioned perfectly.  I than tested it for dozens of reboots and it worked fine.  I then took apart my mac mini and removed the original hard drive and installed the new ssd drive.  When I boot to the ssd drive it still takes 47 to 53 seconds just like the old drive.  Aren't ssd drives supposed to be a lot faster?
    My solution or tip is as follows; The reason it takes so long to boot is because the mac mini doesn't know you replaced the old drive and it is looking for it during the boot process.  Finally it can't find the drive so it boots to the ssd drive.  All you have to do to correct this is click on "system preferences", select and click on "startup disk" and select your ssd drive and click on "restart".  After these steps your mac mini will now boot in about 17 seconds.  Issues solved. 

    Yes, my solution fixed the issue.  I went from a 47 to 53 second boot time to a 17 second boot time.  The ssd drive is significantly faster than the original drive that came with my late 2012 mac-mini.   This is my first post and I wasn't sure how to post this as a tip.  I have another tip regarding usb 3.0 hubs.
