Mac mini gets green tinted display severel times. Help... :(

I just bought a new 2,3 ghz Mac Mini 3 days ago to use as a mediacenter.
I have it set up using my Phillips Tv as screen with a HDMI cable.
Audio is toslink to my amp.
I have a eyetv hybrid connected and a belkin usb hub with severel WD disk.
My problem is that suddenly the display turns green for a couple of seconds
and after that everything on the screen is tinted green.
Sometimes after a while it turns itself back to the right colours again.
There is no consistency in when it does this, and again no consistency in
when it turns itself back again.
The funny thing (as i see it) is that i had a Mac Mini mid 2009 connected
exactly as i have setup the new Mac Mini. And everything worked fine.
I run sabnzbd, air video server, eyetv 3 and XBMC on it. There is aswell
a python script that lauches sickbeard on startup running.
Can anybody please help me to what the problem is???

Try a different gamma setting to brighten up movies. To do this, go into Displays Preferences and click on the Color tab and then the Calibrate button. Put a check mark in the box for Expert Mode and click Continue to start the calibration process. When you get to the screen for gamma, move the slider to the left and it should brighten up middle levels of the picture. See if that helps with movies.
As to RAM, it depends on which generation mini you have as to how much RAM it will take. And you haven't said which one you have.

  • How to install OS X Server on Mac Mini w/o external display?

    I have:
    Brand new mac mini (Mountain lion still in start-up mode)
    OId mac mini
    Macbook pro
    Network & firewire cable
    Time Capsule
    Remote desktop
    I don't have
    An external display
    I want to setup the new mac mini as a server, and migrate my data from a time capsule back up of an older mac mini.
    How can I do this without an external display? I read that you can just plug the new Mac Mini into the network and remote desktop will see it in set-up mode, but this doesn't work.
    Thanks!

    If you have no external keyboard (even a Windows USB one would do) then you have no way to boot the new Mac mini in Target Disk Mode.
    If you have a keyboard and can boot the Mac mini in Target Disk Mode then you can do the following -
    Boot the new Mac mini in Target Disk Mode by holding down the T key
    Connect it via either FireWire or Thunderbolt cable to the MacBook Pro
    Tell the MacBook Pro to boot from the Mac mini which will act as external hard disk drive
    The MacBook Pro screen and keyboard will then be in use but you will be configuring the software on the Mac mini hard disk
    You can then turn on Screen Sharing
    Shutdown the Mac mini and thereafter do everything via Remote Control

  • Does 2012 mac mini get very hot when using logic pro

    does 2012 mac mini get very hot when using logic pro

    Are you saying that your machine does or is it an enquiry before buying ? I use a 2011 server model - well, it does get hot over a period of time, but I've very rarely heard the fan kick in, its a surprise when it does. As far as I know the casing has been specifically designed to conduct heat, rather than having any fancy grilles and so on, being so small in size. I haven't found it to be cause for concern, if that's any help.

  • Mac Mini and the Dell Display

    Has anyone ever used the Mac Mini with a Dell Display? Specifically, the Dell SP2309W. If so, how well the two work together? Thanks in advance!
    http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/products/Displays/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=e n&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=320-7641

    I bought one of these when they first came out. It's a nice monitor but the camera has been a bust. It just won't work reliably. Maybe the firmware has been improved since when I bought mine. But if you care about the camera and mic working, you should investigate further to make sure it's working better than it is on mine.

  • Mac mini configure as X11 display?

    Has anyone tried to configure OS X to turn a Mac Mini into an X11 display terminal?
    I work in a Liunx environment and we are looking at a small 'PC' to drive a 30" display. Our X11 application would run on another box in a equipment room and export the display to the Mac Mini across a local network. I'm pretty sure I can do this in Ubuntu on the Mac but this seems like a waste and I would also lose the Macs video drivers.
    My guess is that I would need to disable the OSX desktop and the run X via some kind of startx script followed by something like 'xhost +'.
    Any help in this adventure would be much appreciated!

    OSX has x11 installed by default now days. When you start it, it runs an xterm, but you can run any x11 apps you want. I'd test it to make sure performance is up to snuff for you, but it should work fine.

  • Macbook Pro to Mac Mini data sharing, sync, and/or time machine backup?

    I currently have a MacBook Pro and am about to buy a Mac Mini. I do a good deal of multitasking on the MBP I and would like to use the Mac Mini as the "home base" of my dealings and my MBP as an extension of it, the way it should be. In short, I will have a desk for the new Mini but I don't really intend on ever being physically at it. Rather, I will be on my MBP or remoting in to it from a PC. At any rate, as an example, is it possible / what would be the best solution for being able to work on my iWeb site via my MBP if it's housed and stored on my Mac Mini?
    Secondly, since I will now have 2 mac machines, there is a data question at hand. Specifically, is there a good way to sync all information and settings bewteen two macs running Snow Leopard? If so, what/how, if not, what would be the best option for accomplishing this type of goal?
    Lastly, since I will now have 2 mac machines, how should I handle the time machine backups? I have a 2tb ext hard drive serving as a time machine backup for my MBP right now but how would I go about doing the same for the Mini? Should I / can I use the same drive for the mini or does it have to be a seperate time machine backup?
    (For the record, I do have an additional 2tb ext hard drive that I would be happy to use as a sync point for all of this data if needed should it be possible to "share" data, apps, etc between the 2 machines. I would be able to broadcast it wirelessly via a device called pogoplug.)
    I feel like there is a better and more efficient way to integrate what it is that I'm trying to do here. Any thoughts on the matter?

    There are numerous solutions to sync information on two or more Macs. Try doing a google search for "Mac sync" or something along those lines.
    As for Time Machine backups, you could connect an external disk drive to your Mac mini and use it as a Time Machine disk for the Mac mini and if you share it out, you can probably also use it to do Time Machine backups of your laptop, but I personally have not tested that yet so I cannot say with certainty that the sharing part will work.

  • Can mac mini use macbook's display?

    Can mac mini use macbook's display? ie can it be added to Macbook as another drive?

    No, it can't use the drive, but it can use the drive. You need a FireWire cable, plug them in to the same port on each device, and hold down the "t" key on the MacBook. The Mac mini should then see it as a hard drive. If you want to share the disc drive, on the MacBook open System Preferences, sharing, Remote Disk. In Finder, the Mac mini should see the MacBooks drive under "Remote Disc".

  • Can't get MAC MINI HDMI to consistently display on TV monitor

    My new MAC mini is connected to a new HD Samsung TV. Initially had problem showing HD movies because I had Mini connected via VGA. Purchased appropriate connection for HDMI and HD movies show great, for a while. Appears that sometimes zhen the mini sleeps, monitor doesn't see mini with HDMI connection. When I switch back to VGA, the monitor once again sees the mini. Recently HDMI was working great until I downloaded updated software, and now once again monitor doesn't see HDMI, only sees moni when I reconnect via VGA. I've checked all connections many times and can't find the issue. Looking for any assistance.
    THANKS

    Update: Got the HDMI working again. Since I couldn't see mini mac with HDMI, hooked up VGA and restarted. While mac mini was restarting, changed connection to HDMI and low and behold, the monitor saw the mini in HDMI. Don't know if that's the optimum way.... but it worked.

  • Mac Mini Experiencing Hard Freeze 3-4 Times Per day...

    About 10 days ago, my mid-2011 Mac Mini started experiencing a hard freeze wherein I would get the spinning beachball and slowly each open app would be come unresponsive and my only resort was to hold down the power button to restart.  Upon reboot, the system would work fine for about an hour then the freeze would start again.  I've rolled back my configuration to a state prior to the freezing, and in desperation, have done a completely clean re-install of the OS.
    System specs:
    Mid-2011 Mac Mini 2.7 GHz Core i7
    16 GB RAM
    256GB SSD
    750GB HDD
    Attached to a 27" LED Cinema Display, and an Airport Extreme Basestation/TimeCapsule (TimeMachine temporarily disabled)
    I've been reading the logs, but don't really know how to interpret them so I've included a a number of postings right up until I force the reboot.
    Thanks in advance!

    I looked these up and none of the network profiles list these MAC addresses. Strange.
    I went to dinner and when I returned the computer was frozen again.  These strange entries appeared in the log:

  • Mac Mini crashes and restarts all the time?

    Hi! I was really hoping someone could help me out.
    I have a mid 2011 Mac Mini which used to work all right, but has been messing up since last summer, restarting, freezing, crashing and doing everything that makes working with pictures (Preview, Lightroom, Photoshop, iPhoto) impossible. Safari crashes often, too, and looks weird sometimes (text disappears, leaving only blocks where text was -- but restarting Safari works for that).
    I've done all updates I can think of (using the latest Mavericks), 1/3 of disk space is free (about 150 GB), the most apps I have open at once is 3-4 (Mail, iTunes, Safari, iPhoto), and I almost never use Lightroom or Photoshop with any other apps open. I only have power cable and HDMI connected at all times, sometimes SD card or iPad, but then only for a few minutes for syncing. Since 90% of what I do on my Mac is editing pictures, this issue is seriously inconvenient. The computer usually crashes when working with pictures, but also when I'm only using Safari/iTunes.
    Here's the latest crash log:

  • Mac mini doesn't boot the first time i turn it on

    hello,
    i have a strange problem with my mac mini and was wondering if anyone had heard of it before.
    when i turn on mac mac, the light comes on and i hear drive noise, but no chime. no video is sent to the display (the monitor flashes "no signal"). however, if i wait for 5 or 10 minutes, turn it off by holding down the power button and then turn it straight back on it again, it starts up as usual (with chime).
    could this be a software problem or is it more likely a glitch in the hardware?

    cheers,
    jack.

    That doesn't sound like a software/OS problem, because MacOS doesn't begin to load until after the initial startup, including the chime and the grey screen with Apple logo. Since you don't get the chime or display, it sounds like the system has a hardware problem, or perhaps an issue with PRAM.
    As a first step I would reset PRAM as follows:
    -Shut down the computer.
    -Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in the next step but one.
    -Turn on the computer.
    -Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    -Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    -Release the keys.

  • Intel Mac Mini and Sony Wega displays

    I purchased one of the G4 based Minis for use in my media center. At that time I had quite a bit of difficulty getting it to work with my Sony KDF-60xs955 60" HDTV. I did eventually get it working and stable but the process, when written down for others in this forum post, is somewhat intimidating.
    My parents really need a new machine for their daily use and I'm going to be donating that Mini to them. Before I replace it with a new intel Mini (yay Front Row!) I want to know whether it will autodetect my television or not. I have no desire to spend the 4-5 hours needed to hack it into working again, plus the hassle of getting it to work again any time I switch displays for a few hours. More importantly I don't feel like I should have to...The HDTV is automatically detected by a PowerBook and that works flawlessly.
    One of the major reasons I pay higher prices to Apple is so that it just works. My new iMac? It just works. My old PowerBook? It just works. My old Mac Mini? Not so much... So, here I am hoping to get an answer out of these forums: To buy or not to buy that is the question, whether tis nobler to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous non-support or to take my cash away from this sea of troubles and by opposing end them.
    Thanks.

    Hi there,
    I have downloaded the lastest Windows Media Player from Microsoft for Mac OS X, but it doesn't officially support the Intel Macs. It runs with wmv videos from my harddisk, for example, but I also can't play the amazon.com sound samples (I just tried). I guess it's because the Windows Media Player is running via Rosetta, maybe there is some problem there.
    For the moment I could only suggest to use the Real-player sound samples as a work-around. Real player does work on the Intel Mac with these sound samples. Just that on my machine it does only download and I have to start it from the desktop instead of right inside of Safari. Maybe it's just a question of preferences, but it does work, at least.
