Mac mini 2014 mDP out of range

Hi,
I have a strange issue with Mac mini late 2014 and NEC PA272W monitor. Mac mini and the monitor are connected by high quality mini display port cable.
Sometimes on boot the display is reporting: Out of range message H 14,6KHz. Its a sync problem?
Then I have to turn off and on the monitor to restore image.
Any advice to this?

Sadly, this "out of range" problem has re-appeared today :-/
This is log from the console:

Mac Mini 2014 Not reconising USB connections for ipads

Hi, we have a Mac mini 2014 1.4GHz and currently having some issues with it. The Mac mini is used in an education setting. We are using the Mac mini for updating iPads in conjunction with a sync and charge trolly. When we are using the Apple Configurator to create profiles to push out to the iPads not all are being recognisetheir are 26 iPads in total and only a maximum of 18 is ever detected. ihave tried with my own personal laptop which is a MacBook Pro early 2011 and detects all 26 using the Apple Configurator. Does anyone know about USB limitations on the new Mac mini's? Also, we have had a replacement from the supplier and still the same.
Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks Gary. Given your confirmation that it should be possible, I've taken the fact that the external drive doesn't appear as a choice in "startup disk" as an indication that my disk is the issue. I did try two alternatives method to get the .iso to disk given your hint,
The first, using UNetbootin rather than my linux distribution and it does come back with a message rather specific after it finishes: "The created USB device will not boot off a Mac. Insert it into a PC, and select the USB boot option in the BIOS boot menu".
The second, using Disk Utility but the restore section for the target volume doesn't seems interested in me dragging the .iso to the 'source' field.
And that's with two different OS's .iso. so assuming that's not the right alternative either.
Few questions from there if I may,
Is there anything special I should take care off while doing the formatting to boot from a mac (mini)? (I'd welcome any link to a validated method)
what do you do when you have a non mac keyboard? (I had used "C")
should the PXE method have worked as well on the mac mini?
(Thanks again for that first response Gary)

Mac Mini 2014 and SATA HDD speed/negotiated speed settings question?

I have a new Mac Mini 2014 2.6GHz i5 - with the Hitachi 1TB 5400RPM drive running OS 10.10.1. It is working well and is a worthy replacement for our 2007 Mini.
Today I was looking around the specs and settings and noticed the SATA settings for the HDD drive showed the link speed at 6 Gigabit but the negotiated speed is set to 3 Gigabit. I have searched around and read about people having issues with other chipsets or hard drive firmware incompatibilities with other models of Mac. Why would this be? Is it due to the drive only supporting 3 Gigabit? Searching for the drive model seems to indicate it supports 6 Gigabit. Thank you in advance for all responses.

I greatly appreciate the prompt responses and link information. So, really other than a modern SSD, or high RPM drive, you will not reach the benefits of a 6Gb connection let alone possibly max out a 3Gb connection. Which for a mild daily use Mini would be overkill.
Thank you.

Mac mini 2014 won't do 5.1 surround sound from HDMI port

I can't seem to get my Mac mini 2014 to do 5.1 surround sound from the built-in HDMI port to my home theatre system. When I run the Audio MIDI Setup program the only option is 2ch-24bit (stereo). Now I didn't have this issue when I tested it with a Mac mini 2012 running 10.9.5. It allow me to select 6ch-24bit (5.1) and Encoded Digital Audio. I also don't have an issue with the Mac mini 2014 if I use a Belkin Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter connected to one of the Thunderbolt 2 ports. It does 5.1 surround sound just fine. So is there something wrong with the built-in HDMI port on the Mac mini 2014 or OS X 10.10?

Mac Mini 2014 Oct cannot wake up after sleep

Mac Mini 2014 Oct Version, cannot wake up after sleep by typing on keyboard or moving mouse (both hardwired USB) if external HDMI screen goes to sleep mode too (usually after 1 min if no signal coming from the MAC). To wake up, I ust turn off and turn on the screen and keep typing on the keyboard. I already checked "prevent computer from sleeping if display goes to sleep". But does not help. This is very annoying. I now try to set the sleep timer to more than 1 hour. Wasting my energy and not helping. I tried connecting my HDMI screen to a HDMI to mini-Display port adaptor cable, then plug into the thunderbolt port of the MAC. Same issue, no improvement.

I may know whats going on with the wake from sleep issue. I have a Mac Mini 2012 but this fix (see below) should work on any product running 10.8.2 Mine is at 10.10.1 and it worked.   First off you can tell if your Mac Mini is in sleep mode by looking at the small light on the front of the Mini. If its pulsing... going from bright to dim its in sleep mode. If you put your Mac in sleep mode, or it goes into sleep mode it will wake from sleep BUT ONLY for the first 4 hours. After 4 hours it will go into what is known as "safe sleep". The light on the front will be off and you won't be able to wake your Mac. The only way to wake the Mac when in safe sleep is to hit the power button and then wait a minute or longer as your system will need to pull the data from the disk and load to ram. This is causing the issue where its not waking from sleep. You can move your mouse or hit the keys all you want but it won't wake from sleep. This is a real pain as you have to press the power button on the back of the Mac mini and wait for the system to come out of its slumber.   Here's what Apple says:
With the release of the OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 supplemental update 2.0, a new feature was introduced to enter safe sleep after four hours of the computer being connected to AC power. This is an effort to comply with the European Energy Standards (ErP Lot6). This will only occur if there is no wireless or Ethernet activity and no activity from external devices such as USB storage devices. This is normal behavior for the following models:
MacBook Pro (Mid 2012 and later)
MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012 and later)
MacBook Air (Mid 2012 and later)
iMac (Late 2012 and later)
Mac mini (Late 2012 and later)
I have found a fix that puts an end to this nonsense..... Go to the Mac terminal (Google if you don't know how or youtube) and run the following commands (Very easy to do and if a novice like my self can do you can for sure)
1. When in the terminal mode type:
pmset -g          This will show your current configuration of your sleep, hibernate, etc You may want to print so you can restore these values if needed.
2. Change your standbydelay to 86400    86400 is number of seconds which is 24 hours. Here’s the command:
sudo pmset -a standbydelay 86400
3. Change autopoweroffdelay to 86400 Here’s the command:
sudo pmset -a autopoweroffdelay 86400
4. At last but not least change autopoweroff to 0   Here’s the command:
sudo pmset -a autopoweroff 0
Run pmset -g to verify your setting have changed. I rebooted my system and checked again to make sure. Since I made the changes no more going into Safe sleep!!! You can change the values to what you like. I used 86400 secs. (24 hours) I hope this helps!

Mac Mini 2014 short freezes

Hello
Recently I purchased a brand new Mac Mini 2014 and sometimes I have this weird issue. Sometimes my mac has short freezes, i can't move cursor or type anything.
when I reboot my issue is solved but I find it quite annoying that this is happening.
I googled this issue but didn't really find anything simular to my issue.
It's like it running something very huge to process because if i move my mouse during the freeze it does move my mouse after the freeze.
I monitored my memory but I haven't noticed anything strange (is it normal I only have 5-10% of my 8GB RAM left?)
Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this issue?
Kind regards
Mathias

Sorry for the late response

Mini DP to HDMI does not work with Mac Mini 2014?

Hi All,
I just upgraded from a Mac Mini 2011 i5 to a Mac Mini 2014. My old Mini worked fine running 2 displays with an HDMI cable to one monitor and a Mini Displayport to HDMI from the Thunderbolt port to another monitor. I can't seem to get the new 2014 Mini to see the monitor from either the Thunderbolt ports. Is this no longer supported?
Thanks
Ray

Hi there LaureynR,
You should still be able to do this. I would recommend taking a look at the article below for troubleshooting steps.

Installing Windows 7 on Mac mini 2014

Hi,
i stuck trying to install Windows 7 on a Mac mini 2014. It is connected to a monitor using the DP-to-VGA-Adaptor.
I tried both, installing from (original) Windows-DVD and from a USB-Stick (always following the Bootcamp Installation procedure).
But during the required reboot to the windows installation, the monitor will stay black and enter the sleep mode. It seems to be a display driver problem.
Is there anyone, who can help me?

Finally, i was able to solve the problem:
the problem was the DP-to-VGA-Adaptor. I connected the mini to my TV using HDMI and got a picture from the Windows installer !
Thank you for helping me!

Will this cable work for connecting the Mac Mini's optical out to my audio system?

Mac Mini's optical out to my audio system's Toslink optical in using this cable?
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/297015-REG/Hosa_Technology_OPQ_210_Toslink _Male_to_Mini_Toslink.html
Or must I use an adapter/Toslink cable combination?
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/516240-REG/Hosa_Technology_GOP_490_TOSlink _Optical_Female_to.html + Toslink cable
If both works, which one is better in your opinion?

The cable in the 1st link should work fine. (Toslink to Mini-Toslink)

Mac Mini 2014 with Apple bluetooth keyboard and Magic Mouse

Hi all,
I'm currently in the process of moving from my old MacBook to a Mac Mini 2014 and I have a couple of questions regarding functionality of the Apple bluetooth keyboard and Magic Mouse with the Mac Mini.
As these are the only keyboard and mouse I have available to me as I currently only have the one computer in the house, I'm wondering how I will pair them with my new Mac Mini (arriving next week for Christmas) without a wired user input device (keyboard or mouse). When I paired them with my MacBook, I of course had its trackpad and keyboard to navigate through the various steps, but as the Mac Mini does not have these, how does the pairing process work? Will I have to get my hands on a wired mouse/keyboard? I'm asking in advance because I need to get my new system up and running to start work on 27th December and so I need to know if I should pick up a cheap wired mouse/keyboard in advance.
My second question relates to the Mac Mini, Apple bluetooth keyboard and Boot Camp. Usually, when I want to boot into Windows on my MacBook, I hold down the Option/Alt key on my MacBook's built-in keyboard to be given the choice of operating systems. Sometimes when I do this using the bluetooth keyboard, it hasn't paired in time and it boots straight into OS X, so I have to wait until that has booted, shut down and then try again. Clearly, this might be a problem on a Mac Mini if I have urgent work I need to complete in Windows, so rebooting over and over until my keyboard finally pairs in time isn't desirable. Any tips here would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance for your help!

If you unpair your BT KB and mouse from the old computer they should pair during the initial setup of the Mini. However, sometimes they donot a wired KB and mouse is required. You can use any USB PC KB and mouse.
Once you get the BT KB to work you can use the Option key on the BT KB while booting to get your choice of OS to boot into.

New mac mini 2014 - thunderbolt 2 - 4k @ 60 Hz possible?

The headline says it already. Is it possible to run a 4k monitor with 60Hz with the the mac mini 2014 via thunderbolt 2 to a DisplayPort (DP) 1.2 connection? HDMI can only do 30 Hz which is not smooth enough for daily usage.

This concludes no
