Mac Mini i5/2.5GHz/4GB RAM MD387xx/A

Hello,
I have this Mac Mini i5/2.5GHz/4GB RAM MD387xx/A, and I just want to know if I can put those RAM (16GB) in it.

Thanks

When I go to Kingston's USA site and select the 2102 Mac Min it returns these as being compatible

Those do not match the link you provided. Unless you can find something that says Kinston says they are compatible I would not get them

Based on your description, you are having a kernel panic.
Can you post some of your crash logs? Might be a clue. See Mac OS X: How to log a kernel panic http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2546
Understanding crash logs isn’t easy and it’s hard (sometimes impossible) to decipher the cause of the problem. Take a look at Apple’s Crash Reporter document at http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2004/tn2123.html Also look at Tutorial: An introduction to reading Mac OS X crash reports
http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20060309075929717
Kernel panics are usually caused by a hardware problem – frequently RAM, a USB device or a Firewire device. What external devices do you have connected? When trying to troubleshoot problems, disconnect all external devices except your monitor, keyboard and mouse. Do you experience the same problems?
To eliminate RAM being the problem, Look at this link: Testing RAM @ http://guides.macrumors.com/Testing_RAM Then download & use Memtest & Ramber.
Do you have an Apple Hardware Test disc (the AHT is on the Install/Restore DVD that came with your Mac)? Running the Apple Hardware Test in Loop Mode is an excellent troubleshooting step for finding intermittent hardware problems. It is especially useful when troubleshooting intermittent kernel panics. If Loop Mode is supported by the version of the Apple Hardware Test you are using, you run the Extended Test in Loop Mode by pressing Control-L before starting the test. Looping On should appear in the right window. Then click the Extended Test button.The test will run continuously until a problem is found. If a problem is found, the test will cease to loop, indicating the problem it found. If the test fails, be sure to write down the exact message associated with the failure.In some cases, RAM problems did not show up until nearly 40 loops, so give it a good run.
May be a solution on one of these links.

MAC MINi Use More CPU - More RAM ?

My Mac Mini 2012 Server i7 2.6 2tb has just had its RAM upgraded from 4gb to 16gb . When doing a simple task like downloading and installing all my Apps
it uses , according to Activity Monitor , only 4 - 7 % of CPU and 4gb or less of RAM . Consequently it is taking hours and hours to complete this simple task .
Internet is not brilliant but not too slow either .
Is there something ' holding back ' the Mini ? Is there a setting that I can tweak ? I assumed it would fly through simple tasks like this.
Also , when put to sleep , the white display light powers on and off for a few minutes but then goes solid white again giving the impression of being on and when I return to screen sharing the login page is visible . Does this mean that it is not staying in ' Sleep Mode ' ??
Apologies for Noob Questions
~M~

First the downloads, open Safari and go to the following
website:
http://www.speedtest.net
and run an internet speed test. Then do the math to figure
how long a download should "ideally" take. Remember that
there is more to download speeds than just the raw data
rate. Server loading, the type of network you are on and
its activity can contribute greatly to large file down loads.
RAM and CPU have little to no impact when it comes to
downloading data over the internet, unless of course there
is a background task hogging CPU, which it does not seem
in your case.

Can a New Mac mini server take 8GB of RAM?

We are considering buying a Mac mini with Snow Leopard Server (to use the complete term) for our small business. Every review I read points out two of the biggest shortcomings as:
1. A limit of 4 GB of memory
2. Limited to the two slow 500 GB drives
However, there seems to be a lot of chatter about a firmware update for both the mini and the mini server that enables 8 GB of RAM. I want an Apple-supported configuration. Does Apple actually support 8GB RAM on the mini server?
I assume that the drives are also not upgradable due to power/heat, and that it would be better to just get an external Firewire drive array.
Thanks in advance!

Is this Apple-approved/supported?
AFAIK, It is not. 4GB max from Apple. But Macsales' reputation in the Mac community is among the best so I am inclined to believe them and I personally would be comfortable with 8GB from Macsales even if it's not supported by Apple. However, you will have to weigh that against the potential issues you may have if you ever need to get the Mini repaired under warranty.

Mac mini doesn't wake after ram upgrade

Hi
I recently upgraded my mac mini from 2gb ram to 8gb ram and noticed that when the mac goes to sleep and the tv ( through hdmi wire) goes into standby that the mac mini will not send a signal to the tv anymore to wake up the tv from standby when I need it too from tapping on keyboard or moving mouse. At first I thought it was because of a software upgrade on the mac mini but when I switched back the ram to 2gb the mac mini will send the signal to wake the tv . I am just wondering has anyone come across this problem and what the solution is . I hav already reset pram setting and the usual things that everyone has mentioned in other posts . This seems to be a major flaw in apple deisgn unless they have a fix . I am stuck with my 2gb ram now in the mac which doesnt even have any speed . the only way I can use the 8gb ram is if i turn the mac on and off everytime I want to use it , as this is the only way to wake the tv with the 8gb ram inside as it doesnt wake the tv from sleep. This totally contradicts what apple say in their manual aswell, they say not to power down your mac if your using it everyday just put it to sleep which wont help me in my case . So at the end of this rant my only two options are to continue to use 8gb ram and have to power on and off mac everytime to wake the tv or use my 2gb ram which makes the mac run really slow as 2gb is not enough but hey aleast my tv will come back on from sleep mode .
Any answer will be a great help ???

Mac Mini Won't Start after RAM upgrade

Hi, I just tried upgrading my RAM from 1GB to 2GB on my Intel Core Solo Mac Mini. When i hooked everything back up it wouldn't start up. So I replaced the original RAM and the same thing happened. I get to the gray apple screen with the gray spinning wheel and then it just shuts off. What could be my problem? Are their any solutions?

Welcome to Apple Discussions, though I suspect the circumstances could be better!
It's not unusual for 'bad RAM' to cause a system to fail to boot, but the disturbing feature of your problem is that when the previous memory is reinserted, the system continues to fail. What makes it worse is that you describe the system shutting off after failing to boot - that is not a common symptom of something simple like bad memory, and may mean that in the initial upgrade, something was damaged or dislodged, or not reconnected correctly.
I would open up the system again, and disassemble it sufficiently that you can reseat the original RAM which was working correctly prior to the upgrade, then check that everything is connected correctly internally, and the CPU heatsink is firmly attached. If that doesn't result in the system working, or at least in different symptoms such as being stuck on the grey screen but no longer shutting down, then I would look for an Apple store in the area and make an appointment at the genius bar for them to have a look - that would not bear a cost in the first instance for them to give their opinion.

Mac mini won't boot after RAM upgrade.

Tried installing new RAM in my Mac Mini, 512MB stock to 2GB of Crucial. Followed the directions to a T, grounded myself the whole time.
Things I've tried so far:
1. Resetting the PRAM, no luck.
2. Holding option at start-up, shows no icon.
3. Holding shift, no luck.
4. Holding X, nothing.
How do I get it to accept a CD if it won't boot?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
You clearly have a problem, but you don't describe exactly what that is other than that your mini won't boot after the upgrade. What happens when it starts up? Does it attempt to start and hang up on the grey or blue screens, or does it start beeping at you almost immediately after you try and start it up, and also flash the power light?
If the former, then you may have dislodged a connector while working inside the system, in which case opening it up and checking that everything is firmly connected would be the first thing to do. If the latter, then the beeping/light flashing is the system telling you it has failed the power-on self test and the pattern of beeps/lights indicates why. In your case likely the system can't find workable memory. In that instance, opening the system and ensuring that the RAM is firmly and fully seated would be a good step, and if the mini continues to fail, then replacing the new RAM with the original to test that the system will then start.
It is not likely that anything had damaged your MacOS install in the process of upgrading, thus normally no reason to need to boot to CD as a result of a RAM issue.

Will my mac mini upgrade to 8gb of RAM?

Hello, I have the 2009 model of the mac mini, it currently has 4 gb of RAM in it but I was wondering if it could go to 8? I beleave it can but I do not know what type it needs, any help would be good . Also should I get another more powerful processor aswell, if so what do you recomend?

Just bought a new Canon Vixia HF R300. It looks like I have basically two recording modes--either AVCHD or MP4. I have a year old Mac Mini on Lion with increased ram. I edit on iMovie and upload to You Tube. Which recording mode would be best?

Hi...
I just bought a Canon Vixia HF R300 camcorder. It looks like it gives me a choice of two recording modes AVCHD or MP4. I will be uploading onto a year old Mac Mini with the Lion Operating system and increased ram. I will be editing in iMovie '11 then uploading to You Tube. Which recording mode should I use? Obviously I'd like to get the best quality but I also want it to show well on You Tube. What do you think? Thanks for the help. Bill

Hi
What program can you use to convert AVCHD to a DVD format?
Share to File (in iMovie) - AND AS 480p - NOT Higher as DownScaling will be done badly.
Use this file in iDVD or Roxio Toast™ or what DVD Authoring program You've got.
To make a VIDEO-DVD You must use a DVD Authoring program - to get the right compression format AND Structure - It is a MUST.
There are free alternatives - but resulting DVD hasve been far from what quality iDVD (and Toast™) will deliver.
To get best possibly DVD - also this counts.
- DVD brand used - I only Verbatim
- DVD type used - I only DVD-R Single layer (4.7Gb)
(DVD+R works for many and DVD-R/W usually don't work OK and Double Layer also are a problem to it self)
- BURN SPEED - I set this as low possibly (usually x2)
- Free Space on Start-Up Hard Disk - MATTERS - I never go less than 25Gb
Good Luck

Mac Mini 2011 - 2.3Ghz - 2GB Ram running Lion Server

Hi guys.
I’m in a processof deciding whether to buy or not a mac mini.
Since the$599 version comes with Lion, 2.3 GHz i5 and 2GB of ram, is there any problemto upgrade from Lion to Lion Server? Or the server is reserved to the Mac MiniServer.
Since Ialready own one Apple Time Capsule, do you see any inconvenience to put’ it ontop.
What shouldbe best?
The Timecapsule on top on mac mini or the mac mini on top of time capsule.
Currentlythe time capsule is only a NAS/Switch which means that the radio if off as wellas other components. Bridge Mode. I guess that with the radio off he will warmbut not that high.

Hello, see how many of these you can answer...
See if the Disk is issuing any S.M.A.R.T errors in Disk Utility...
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH7029
Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab of Activity Monitor, are there a lot of Pageouts?
Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop for now...

Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

Can I upgrade memory on Macbook Pro 13" 2.5GHz 4GB RAM, Model Z0MT7B/A

I have ordered a Macbook Pro from a retailer here in the UK. It ships with 4GB RAM but I know I will 8gb or possibly 16GB.
Does anyone know whether the memory is removable and changeable in this model, as it used to be in earlier Macbook Pro 13" models?

I'm pretty sure you can upgrade to 8, 12, or 16. As I'm looking on Other World Computing I'm seeing that for Macbook Pro's 13", 2012 - Current there are upgrades available in the sizes I mentioned. It stands to reason that the memory is changeable, seeing as how there are memory upgrades available and even videos to show you how to change the memory.

Mac mini halts on "WaitForSystemMapper" after migration to Mac OS 10.8.5

Hi,
I have a mac mini mid 2010 with 4Gb RAM, nVidia GeForce 320M, HDMI running well under mac OS 10.7 last update
After making a clone on external USB disk, I tried to migrate to OS 10.8.5 I bought in june 2014 from the Apstore (after having halt after an attempt to Maverick migration)
1) I had also an halt after the OS 10.8.5 migration (grey screen with apple)
2) After shut down by pressing power button during 5s, I tried dto restart in Verbose mode (Apple+V key pressed at start), the it shows the following :
- some FIPS check are done, all passed with success,
- the it halts on "WaitForSystemMapper" with some hexadecimal indication following
3) After shut down by pressing power button during 5s, I have been abble to start OS 10.8.5 without the extension (safe mode with upcase key at start)
I tried to disinstall all non Apple programs but without result (same halt at reboot in normal mode)
4) I also tried to reinit the SMC (unplugging the mac, then starting after replug and 10s wait) : the same
5) I also tried to reinit the PRAM (Apple+Alt+P+R at start) : the same
6) Then, i formated the HD of the Mac mini and isntalled OS 10.8.5 from the external USB disk where I put the OS 10.8.5 installer
It rebooted well on the Mac mini HD to install OS 10.8.5
Then I requested to import data (accounts, programs and system setup) from the backup USB disk
It went well, but I was requested to upgrade the system and other Aps : I did it and.... again the same halt, with the same message and stop at "WaitForSystemMapper" when looking in verbose mode
Do you have any idea of what can occur, what can I displace or test in ktex for instance?
I would like not to have to reinstall all Aps manually, with their proper user data
Thank you in adavance for help

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
Paste into the window of another application.
Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start Time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Mac mini 2012 freezing on wake from sleep

2012 Mac Mini 2.3 i7, 4GB RAM and 128GB SSD.
I'm having a problem which has only manifested itself this past week where one of two scenarios occurs;
1) During normal use the computer sort of stalls, the curser turns into the spinning ball and the keyboard becomes unresponsive. Whatever apps are open freeze their current activity and there is nothing I can do but shutdown the mini using the power button.
2) If 1) above does not occur and the computer is left for a period of time it it set for display sleep, when it is next used mad woken from sleep the desktop appears on the monitor and gaskin everything is completely unresponsive with any apps running frozen at the point that the computer stalled while asleep.
I have the mini setup as a home PC and iTunes media server. It is left on 24/7 with the computer set never to sleep, screensaver after 10 mins and display sleep after 15 mins. It makes no difference which peripherals are attached or which apps or processes are running.
What I have tried;
- Shutdown, restart and reset the SMC controller
- Shutdown, restart and reset PRAM (opt+cmd+P+R)
- Disk permissions verify & repair via disk utility
- Restart holding shift into safe mode
- Restarted normally
The problem still persisted, so then I got medieval;
- Reinstated from a previous time machine backup (prior to problems manifesting)
- Reinstalled Mavericks from Cmd+R startup
Neither improved the situation, so....
- Booted in utility mode, formatted boot drive.
- Reinstalled Mountail Lion from recovery partition
Still getting the same thing.
- Reinstalled Mavericks 10.9.3 from the Mac App Store.
Still getting the same problem.
I'm fairly confident that this is not a software issue, but I am now at the limit if my Mac knowledge! Has anybody had a similar problem?
If this likely to be an SSD failure on the cards or a logic board issue?
I gave now booked a Genius Bar appointment for Monday but Any help or advice would be appreciated.

On number 2...
See if it's related to this...
It also seems to be related to later OSX versions, like 10.8.x & 10.9.x
The 2012 macs (and later apparently) (also later OSX versions on earlier Macs can do it also), not waking normally from sleep after hours being in sleep. (noted here ...

"Why 2012 iMac/2012 Mac Mini won't Wake After Hours of Sleep (Hibernates/Powers Off)")
The sleepimage file still reappears even if never slept. Delete it (hibernate off, etc) - within minutes its back.
A note on that here - http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/feedback/Chameleon_SSD_Optimizer.html
About iMac sleep...

Try this: "sudo pmset autopoweroff 0" and "sudo pmset standby 0"
http://xlr8yourmac.com/archives/sep13/091313.html#10.8.5SleepEjectTip
Two users reported that the opposite worked...
Try this: "sudo pmset autopoweroff 1" and "sudo pmset standby 1"
On #1, Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
Also...
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts (Users & Groups in later OSX versions)>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed. Or an errant process eating up RAM.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

ATI Radeon HD 3650m vs. Mac Mini's Nvidia 9400m?

I've temporarily been using a Dell laptop w/ the specs of 2GHZ Intel 2 Duo processors, 3GB ram and ATI Radeon HD 3650 mobility(256mb). I miss using a Mac so I'm thinking of getting the new Mac Mini with 2GHZ processors, 4GB ram and Nvidia 9400m (256mb). Video card wise, which one would be more powerful? I tried looking for some comparisons between these two online but wasn't able to find any. Are they both about the same? or is one more powerful/faster than the other?
Thanks in advance,
J

They ought to be about the same, but I think the ATI has its own dedicated VRAM, which the mini does not. The mini's GPU takes some memory (256 MB) from the main RAM, so you have slightly less for utilization on the system. It is virtually impossible to notice though.

Mac mini upgrade

Can a 2005 mac mini be upgraded to 4gb ram and 500gb hard drive?

Hard drive, yes. Memory max is 1 GB.
