Mac Mini - Can I "fix" "lock" the audio output of the mini?

I wish to "fix" (lock) the volume level coming from the headphone/line output of my Mac Mini (version just before the current)?  Is that possible and if so, how?

For running XP software, the best bet is using one
of the available virtual machine apps if the apps are
not highly graphics oriented.  These apps are basically
a PC running as an application.  With VMWare Fusion or
Parallels Desktop for Mac, they even have apps to import
a physical machine ito a virtual machine.  Check their
websites for more info.
You should be able to import your mail and other using
Apple's  Migration Assistant.
As for the hard drive and CD player, best bet is to just
remove them and put them into their own enclosures
which can be purchased from various sources such as
Newegg, etc.
As for floppies, best thing there is to find a cheap USB
drive, if you can.

  • I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. Mac users can no longer read the page numbers but pc users can.

    I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. As of about 2 weeks ago the mac users can no longer read the page numbers they get a font error message and see only -- where the page information should be. The pc users do not have this same problem. When I replace our regular font (URW Grotesk) with a system font (Verdana) everyone is able to read the page numbers. This is a new issues, I have been creating these documents in the same way for years without a problem. I have been on hold and on and off calls for the last two hours, I keep getting hung up on once I find someone in adobe support to talk to!

    Hi KnoopL,
    Are the Mac users using Preview to view the pdfs or Adobe Reader?

    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    Go to the "File" menu, then "Print." The window that appears will have three drop-down menus at the top.
    The first is labeled "Printer",
    The second is "Presets".
    The third is unlabeled but has "Copies & Pages" selected by default.
    Click on that third menu and select "Firefox" near the bottom of the list.

  • How can I toggle my iTunes audio output from my TV speakers to my Mac speakers

    I've just recently set up my Apple TV.
    This morning, I tried playing a song on my Mac with the intent of hearing it from my Mac speakers. However, the output came out of my TV speakers. How can I choose where the audio output is coming from?

    From your Old Computer... Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..
    An Added Bonus is that you will then have a Backup of iTunes...

  • How can I sync a new Iphone 4s with an old 10.4.11 OS mac that can't update to the new version of itunes?

    I have a Mac OS 10.4.11 that can't update to the newest version of Itunes. It does not recognize my new Iphone 4s. Is there other any way I can sync my phone? Apple support recommended that I update my Itunes from 9.2 to the new version but it won't install.

    You cannot use an iPhone 4S with iTunes 9; you must have iTunes 10.5 or later, and that will indeed not run on Mac OS X 10.4. You'll need to upgrade your computer's OS to at least Mac OS X 10.5.8.
    If, as Allan requested, you tell us your specific model of Mac, we can tell you what options you would have as regards compatible OS X versions.
    Regards.

  • Some of my Mac apps can´t connect to the internet, while Firefox can

    All of a sudden, Safari, ITunes, Software Update, can´t connect to the internet.  It happens in my office and in my house.  Have not checked other networks.  Firefox wors fine, as does Mail (for now).  What can be the problem?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    As Guest, test. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

  • Rebooting old mac g5: Can't get past the grey screen.

    This problem concerns an old mac g5 that I had replaced three years ago because it hadn't been working properly. I am getting it out because my son needs a computer and I was hoping that the thing would work for a little while.
    I can't get past the grey apple screen. I have the installation disc in and restart while pressing the c. I just am not getting any further than that. The fans begin to sound like a jet taking off. I have tried resetting the pram while starting up, but that doesn't seem to be working either. I have heard about a hair dryer trick and don't really know what is supposed to get warmed up by that.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    No hair dryer.  What you need to do is make sure the PRAM battery is new.   It is a coin shaped battery on the logic board.   Radio Shack sells them.
    Option key booting sometimes works.  You have to us a Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.4.6 retail disc, which are black with a white X logo, and do not say Update Dropin or OEM on them.     If you have the original iMac G5 disc that's fine, but web browsing with older operating systems is not very friendly.  Some of these machines were known to have leaky capacitors, and getting the power supply replaced on them now would be quite hard because of the age.

  • My iPhone 4s won't turn on, it turned off by itself now it says plug into iTunes? I don't have a computer is this something I can have fixed at the store?

    My iPhone turned off by itself and says to plug into iTunes and won't turn on. Is this something I can have fixed at te store?  I don't have a computer with iTunes..

    You should be able to restore the iPhone, just connect it to the computer and open iTunes.
    Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes installed and take a look at this, if you run in to a problem.

  • Why can't I lock the screen in landscape?

  • My Mac crashed, can not de-activate the CS5.5, thus can not activate the CS5.5 on another computer. What to do now?

    I think I need support from the Adobe team but somehow only can get support from the forum. Anyone knows how to reach the support team? Or are there other solutions to this problem? Thanks!

    You are allowed to have two activated installations.  If you only have the application(s) activated on one machine then you still have one activation remaining that you can use, so there is no need to wait to install it.
    Adobe Support can take care of deactivations for inaccessible machines.  Here is a link to get to chat with them for this topic....
