Mac Mini from U.S. to Japan

I'm bringing my Mac Mini to Japan to give to my girlfriend, I've set it all up for her. Will I have any problems with it there? Power, etc?
Thanks
iMac/Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

You shouldn't have any problems at all. The mini's power supply is self-adjusting so it'll work with 110-240v 50-60Hz. You'll need an adapter to allow the US mains plug to fit a Japanese mains outlet of course (or a replacement power cord to run from the power brick to the wall) but that's all.

    Hi, I try to conect Mac Mini from 2009 with my HD Tv Samsung F 6400 . With Mini Dvi conection and adapter to HDMI input in TV I got picture but not sound! I have analog cable from the phones out from mac but imposible to conect to TV? Can you HLP?

    You really need a newer Mac Mini with a true HDMI output, because that Mac Mini's DVI output does not support Audio.
    You might try a 3.5mm to RCA adapter
    from the Mac Mini's headphone jack to the TV's audio input,
    but that would require being able to select the Audio input in the TVs menu while using it's HDMI input.
    Optionally you could also use an external 2.1 Speaker System or patch the audio from the Mac Mini to your home stereo system to enhance that older Mac Mini's audio.

  • Can I transfer data from a PC to a Mac mini from a USB pen drive?

    I currently use a PC using windows vista, I would like to purchase a Mac mini and need to know if it is possible to transfer data from the intuit quickbooks program to the Mac mini? I have the data backed up on a USB pen drive. I wasn't sure if the saved data would be compatible with the Mac mini from the windows pc.

    Thanks

    As I said you need to:
    You need to wipe the hard disk and reinstall the OS by booting into the recovery partition and reinstall the original OS via the internet. It will ask you to enter your ID

  • I want to install XP Pro SP2 on a Mac Mini from a 2003 RIS server.

    I want to install XP Pro SP2 on a Mac Mini from a 2003 RIS server. Is this possiIble? How is it done?
    The mac has 10.5 which has bootcamp to enable Windows install. I have created a partition but the bootcamp utility asks for a CD. I want to install a RIS build. The Mac has a option for network boot but this seems to only work with Mac Server. I assume the network adapter is not PXE compatible and so a boot disk of some kind will be needed to kick this off?.

    Hallo, I installed the program as you said. Everything ok.
    When i have to give my serialnummer, it is not accepted. Code is not valid he said

  • How to buy mac mini from USA

    HI, there, I want to buy a Mac mini from USA but I'm in New Zealand. The price here is so crazy!!! Is it possible to order one from apple store in USA and ask them to post it? How to do that? Cheers

    There are some things to know about buying things in the US. The prices do not include sales taxes. There is no standard federal sales tax, it differs from state to state and large city to large city and can be between 6 to 10+%.
    If you buy from Apple you will always pay sales tax. If you find an online 3rd party Apple reseller, you may pay as much as US$20 to 30 less for the product, but many also do not charge sales tax and if you buy enough, offer free shipping within the US. I have friends in Dallas, so I buy things in the US there. For example, if I had purchased my Mac mini from an Apple Store in Dallas it would have been US$499 plus US$41.00 sales tax (8.25%). (It would have been the same cost from Apple Online, but sometimes they charge for shipping, sometimes they do not.) However, I ordered it from Other World Computing for US$479.00 with no sales tax and free shipping to Dallas. So I saved US$61.00.
    However, as mentioned, shipping to NZ and paying customs' duty fees may not save you anything over buying it there.

  • It is possible to boot a mac mini from keyboard?

    I need to boot my mac mini from Kb, it is possible?

    keg55 but youyr suggestion uses the Power button too.

    With the Min Off, there is no power to the keyboard and thus you can't turn the iPod on only from the keyboard.

  • Is it possible to downgrade a new Mac Mini from OSX 10.7 to OSX 10.5? If so, how is this done?

    Is it possible to downgrade a new Mac Mini from OS X 10.7 to OSX 10.5? If so, how is this done?

    No. You can't install earler versions of the OS than that with which (any) Mac was originally delivered.

  • I bought this Mac mini from my company, and cannot set up my admin account. What can I do?

    I bought a Mac mini from my company as they were closing our office and leaving all of us in a state of unemployment. Now I'm trying to setup the admin user account for my Girlfriend's son, for whom I purchased the unit. As he is new to mac, I'm trying to set it up for him. However when I go to the account panel in system preferences, I am unable to change anything without entering an admin password. Nor can I find a setup assistant to treat it as a new mac. What are my options from here? The Mac mini 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running OS X Version 10.6.8

    If the company did not supply you with that Mac's original System Install DVD, you really ought to purchase a Snow Leopard DVD from Apple since you are likely to need it in the future.
    Please read everything that follows before continuing. If you have only the one computer you should print this for reference.
    Power on or restart your Mac.
    At the chime or grey screen, hold ⌘ and S on your keyboard to enter single-user mode.
    At the localhost:/ root# prompt, type
    fsck -fy
    and press Return.
    This is a simple check for file system integrity and is optional. It may take a few minutes to complete. Be patient. If you get concerned that it has stalled press the Return key. When the integrity check completes pressing the Return key will result in the localhost prompt again.
    At the localhost:/ root# prompt, type each of the following lines, exactly as written, one line at a time, each line followed by the Return key. There is a single space preceding the first "slash" ( / ) character in each line:
    mount -uw /
    rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    reboot
    The Mac will restart, and then take you through the entire setup and registration process that a new Mac presents to a new user. Any pre-existing user accounts are still available, but without their passwords they will not be useful to you.
    Do not elect to transfer your information from another Mac. When you get to the "Do You Already Own a Mac" screen, select "Do not transfer my information" and press Continue. Have your existing Apple ID and password ready - do not create a new one unless that's what you really want to do.
    When it completes, log in under that new account. Use System Preferences > Accounts (or Users & Groups) to delete the User accounts that you no longer need.

  • Prevent MAC Mini from appearing on the shared network

    Hi,
    As above, how do I go about hidding the MAC Mini from appearing on the shared network which is able to seem by other? I had already disable the file sharing under the sharing? What I want to achieve is to totally prevent the MAC Mini from appearing on the shared network as the network I am connecting to is public network. Between I am runnning OS X.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    As far as I'm aware of you can't without disabling a couple of things that'll also prevent any internet usage, since it's all tied together now.
    Might name your Mac... F.B.I (Hidden)!

  • I recently was given an old mac Mini from a friend, but iPhoto is not installed, and it is too old a version to support a current update - what can I do?

    I was recently given a Mac Mini from a friend.  It is an old version (model A1176) and cannot support a current version of iPhoto from the app store.  It originally came with iLife, but was apparently wiped when they cleaned the hard drive to give it to me, and they cannot find the CD to reload it.  I can no longer find iLife '11 in the app store.  Is there anything I can do to be able to store photos from my iPhone onto the computer?

    You Model does not support the latest iLife
    What specific Mini do you have? The A1179 covers three models
    How to identify Mac mini models
    The early and late 2006 can only go to 10.6.8 but the mid 2007 can go to Lion. With Lion you can get iPhone from the Mac App Store by:
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    Otherwise you will have to call Apple and order the iLife DVD or get a DVD from Amazon or other places.

  • 10.6.7 - High wifi latency on Mac Mini (from mid 2007)

    Hi!
    I have a MacBook Pro from mid 2009. It is upgraded to 10.6.7 and works with absolutely no problems. However I also have a Mac Mini from mid 2007 and since upgrading to 10.6.7 the wifi latency has been extremely high--averaging 5 seconds or more if I run a ping command on the IP address of my network gateway.
    Last night I restored the system to its original OS X version (10.5) and the wifi worked great. Then I upgraded with my original Snow Leopard disc (10.6) and the wifi still worked great. Finally, I updated via the Software Updater to 10.6.7. The wifi instantly took on the high latency again. If I switch to my Windows installation via Bootcamp, the wifi works splendidly. The problem is definitely with 10.6.7. It is not with my Mac Mini hardware or with my router.
    Some things I tried to resolve the problem (none of them worked):
    I tried creating a new "Location" and reconnecting with that.
    I tried zapping my PRAM
    No need to delete my preferences files because I just did a complete OS restore
    I have not changed my routers security settings because that is not an acceptable solution (some people suggest disabled WEP or WPA--I'm running WPA2).
    Any help that you could provide would be great. I've never had a problem with Apple hardware or software before this, so this experience is disappointing.

    Thanks for your response.
    My router is a Linksys WRT160N.
    I'm a little doubtful that it's just a matter of 10.6.7 and my router, since my MBP is currently running 10.6.7 and doing just fine. I'm fairly certain that the fault is primarily with 10.6.7 itself.
