  • Trouble receiving FaceTime calls on my Mac Mini using OSX Mountain Lion

    I have a Mac Mini using OSX Mountain Lion, an iPad 2, and an iPhone 4.  I tried to receive  a FaceTime call on my Mac but it was telling the caller that it was busy.  I was however able to call her iPhone from FaceTime on my Mac and we connected that way.  After our video conversation I tried testing this by calling my Mac from my iPhone.  I also received the message that it was busy.  I should also add that when I first received the call I had my iPad FaceTime turned on.  The iPad was ringing but not the Mac.  So I turned off FaceTime on my iPad and had her call me back again using my email address.  As noted it said it was busy.  Please help!

    Do you have different FT addresses on your Mini, iPhone and iPad?

  • Sharing iTunes with a Mac Mini OS X Mountain Lion Server

    I'm adding a Mac Mini OS X Mountain Lion Server to my home network. What options do I have to inetgrate iTunes into the server? Currently my master iTunes library is housed on a RAID on a Mac Pro, home sharing is on, and it interfaces over the network just fine into Apple TV (3rd gen). For instance, with Server can all devices on the network have access to that library?  Could the library stream to the Apple TV in the living room, an iMac in the office, an iPhone in another room all simultaenously? Also, can any Server member order iTunes Store content and cause it it to be placed into the master library on the Ser

  • If I purchase a mac mini now - will Mountain Lion be avilable free?

    If I purchase a mac mini now - Will Mountain Lion be available free - or should I wait to purchase the mac mini?

    No. It will come with Lion installed. A free upgrade to Mountain Lion would only occur when Apple announces such an option, and only to those who purchase the computer within some period of time after ML is released.
    If saving $30 or so to upgrade to ML is your goal, then wait until it is released and Apple initiates an Up-To-Date program.

    on the same partition?  no.  you'll need to create another partition if you want to dual boot, and install SL there.

  • Mac Mini 2011 and EFI

    Hi, does anyone know if the New Mac Mini 2011 being sent out if purchased from the online store has the EFI firmware ready installed?
    I guess only someone who has received one in the past week would know
    I am about to buy one to update from early 2009 model and wonder if I should hold back for a bit.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the information, just ordered, so I know what to check for when it arrives in the next week or so.

  • Selling a 2009 Mac with FCP and Mountain Lion?

    I am selling my 2009 iMac and I would like to reset it to the factory settings, BUT I would like to also keep Final Cut Studio and Mountain Lion on it. Is this possible? If not, is there a work-around?

    As for the OS (Mountain Lion), no you cannot. Unfortunately, the license is not transferable for any OS purchased at the app store. You will need to erase and reinstall the original OS; if you leave ML on it, the buyer will never be able to reinstall as the purchase/license is tied to your Apple ID forever. You also need to give the buyer the original install disks. I'd tell the buyer that I've discounted the price by $20 so he can buy ML with his own Apple ID since it wouldn't work with my ID.
    If you purchased Final Cut on retail disks, then yes, you are allowed to sell or transfer those as long as you do not retain a copy, and you must give the disks to the buyer. It won't do him any good without the disks in case there needs to be a reinstall. If you purchased it at the app store, the same license applies: any app purchased at the app store is not transferable and will not work reliably as Apple's servers would be able to detect its presence on another machine with a different ID.
    There is no workaround - this is what is required legally; if you wish to do something else, no one here is going to suggest anything as we would be violating the ToU of these forums.

  • Mac Mini 2011 cannot reinstall lion

    I have the 2.3 Ghz 2011 Mac mini and I was going to reinstall Lion through recovery as there is no disk or flash media included with the computer. I am able to boot into recovery but when i choose to install lion, I receive a message that it has to check with Apple to confirm availability and errors out saying I need to contact Apple Care.
    I called AppleCare and they acknowledged they know the problem is related to serial number issues but can not do anything with out charging a rediculous fee for service. The tech said they have to make changes on their end but cannot move forward with out payment? He also said taking it to the store is not an option as I am out of 90 days for software related issues.
    I have found that others that cannot reinstall on MacMini also have the same problem with iLife apps not update correctly through Software update and showing up in App store as purchased but cannot update.
    I should note that Lion came preinstalled on the computer, it was not purchased though the App store so I cannot make a booatable USB drive to install from, it has to connect over the internet and for some reason is failing authenication from Apple.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated as i have tried formatting main disk and lost recovery HD on main drive. Luckily, I had make an extenal Recovery HD(no .dmg) and can also boot from internet recovery.
    Thanks and beware of purchasing computer that offers no physical backup of Operating System!

    If on the off chance you hvae another mac or you know someone else who has a mac download this tool and creatse a bootable OS X Lion recovery USB Pen. Then you should be able to recover from it. I have the Same Mac Mini as you, I have a bootable USB Created, I haven't used it but made it on the off chance something happens.
    Hope this helps and Good Luck,

  • Mac Mini/Xcode/OS Mountain Lion issue

    Hi everyone,
    I'm a complete newbie to macs and I'm having a tough time figuring a couple of things out. I basically bought a mac mini so I can use Xcode. I went to try and download it but when it finishes and I open the Xcode file I get a message that says "Xcode Not Supported On This Archtecture". I hit software upgrade but it stays stuck on version 10.5.8. Then I see that you can pay $20 bucks for the newest Mountain Lion update.
    Do I need to get Mountain Lion in order for Xcode to work on my Mac Mini?
    For further info, I signed up as a developer and I have the 3 gig version of the Mac Mini. I've heard kind of confusing things regarding Xcode with people saying it's free but others saying you have to pay an annual fee. At the moment I haven't paid for anything relating to Xcode.
    Basically my main question is, how do I get Xcode up and running?
    Sorry if this is all super rookie bush league but I'm brand new to the mac world.
    Thanks for all your help.

    Xcode is free. A basic login to the developer site is free. For $99 you get full membership in the developer program and the ability to release software either in the App Store (depending on either iOS or Mac program). If you are in the Mac developer program you can release software with a Developer ID. You also get access to different versions of the operating system for testing.
    The problem is that your Mac Mini is from 2007 at best. It will not run Mountain Lion. You can call Apple (yes - telephone only - no online sales) and purchase either Snow Leopard or Lion. In the developer site you can download an older version of Xcode appropriate for whatever operating system you want to run. That will be enough to learn on. If you ever want to move publishing your apps, you will need a new system.

  • Mac mini wont run mountain Lion

    I have just purchased a 2nd hand 2009 mini mac, and have updated the snow leopard osx.
    I checked the spec to be able to run mountain Lion and my machine just meets it...core 2 duo 1.83ghz,upgraded to 2gb ram.
    I have purchased Mountain Lion for £14 from apple, and got a download link. Right at the start of the download stage, a warning pops up that my machine isn't able to run it.
    I have adequate hard drive space,and realise I am close to edge of compatability,  is it because "apple" is recognising my machine as originally having less than 2gb, thus says it is unable to run it?
    other questions are, as I ordered the download, but then it failed will I still be charged?
    also, if available could I purchase a physical disk and install either on top of my existing OS or even on a new HD.....
    I am a new convert having previously done many many windows upgrades etc, so I am learning a bit...Any help would be great, my reason for wanting to upgrade is I wan't to down load Mac Apps, which you have to have mt Lion to do?
    many thanks

    Yes, thxs for that, my current os is defo 10.6.8, i've run an update, and it says the software is up to date....
    My current o/s is I guess snow leopard, and i wan't to get to at least Lion or mountain Lion...
    I realise Mavericks is a free upgrade, but i really dont think my machine would run that, but my first issue is getting Mt Lion installed, i understand you can't buy Lion on its own so i purchased Mt Lion...
    but like i said, i am unsure if my machine meets the required spec for even that as the ram is just upgraded to 2 gb...
    is there a way around the install checking what spec the machine is that it is being installed on to?, although i am unsure if i am even near to that stage as it won't even start the down load...
    i will try again!!!
    thanks again, has anyone else got any advice...
    sorry one last thing, will it be anything linked to my serial number?, it isn't listed under "about my mac", i suspect as it may well have been effected when the ram was expanded to 2gb, would that cause an issue, I have the serial number on the original box, can i re establish that with the mac if that is the cause?

  • HT2090 External iSight camera video feed working fine but mic is not working Mac Pro 2009 and Mountain Lion 10.8.4

    Finally I decided to move forward and installed Mountain Lion 10.8.4 (with all the updates). Now I am facing a dilemma, my external iSight Camera  is working fine regarding the video fee but the Mic is useless. I am using a Mac Pro 2009 and a Apple Cinema Display 30". I checked all the trends about iSight External devices but no one has a really specific solution for my problem. Firewire is not longer supported with Mountain Lion? By the way my iSight was working perfectly before. So I am wondering if something wrong happened with the OS and the support for this kind of device?   I reset the PRAM, the SMC, even I reinstalled the MAC OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4) from scratch. So I am wondering if the problem is that ML is not longer supporting this device or what is the issue here.
    Hope someone can help me with it!
    Thanks

    Not true.  External iSight works fine with my '09 Mac Pro and 10.8.4.

    So it must have.

    You have tried several good things, but there may be other suggestions from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 that you have not yet considered.  Be sure to check more than one Apple app in more than one user account to help you pinpoint the cause of your trouble.  Then you will know what to fix.
    In addition to the Apple troubleshooting, check your  > System Preferences... > Sound > Input to verify that your iSight's mic is selected, not muted, and that its volume setting is properly adjusted.  You may need to check this again after restarting Mac or changing apps that use the mic.
    Also, be certain that the apps you are testing are configured to use iSight's mic.  Different apps select the mic in different ways.  For example, QuickTime X allow selection among various microphone alternatives via one of its preferences as shown in the image below: 
    (I was using my Display microphone and did not have my external iSight connected when I made this image.  Therefore, there is no iSight mic shown in my list of mic choices above.  If your iSight's mic is properly connected, turned on, and recognized by your Mac, iSight will show in your QTX microphone preference choice list.)
    If you are trying to use your iSight with a Flash based web site, also check your Mac's  > System Preferences... > Flash Player > Camera and Mic settings to verify that your Flash system preferences are not blocking your mic.
    Some other apps may offer mic and or camera selection via their application menus.  If you have trouble finding out how to select the iSight internal mic in other apps, check each apps' Help or post back the name of the app whose selector you cannot locate here so we can try to help.

  • ICloud OK with Macs running Mavericks and Mountain Lion?

    I have two Macs on Mountain Lion currently, but only want to upgrade one of them to Mavericks.
    Will iCloud still work seamlessly?
    Thanks!

    Correct. iCloud is compatible with OS X Lion and later, so you won't have any problem using iCloud in OS X Mavericks even if one of your Macs is using OS X Mountain Lion. The only thing that iCloud adds in Mavericks is iCloud Keychain, so you can't use it with your computer with OS X Mountain Lion. Apart from that, everything should be working correctly.
    Before upgrading, make a backup of your files with Time Machine and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com
