Mac mini iTunes updates

late 2012 Mac mini; 4 gb memory; OS X Yosemite V10.10 - recent upgrade.  Ever since the Yose upgrade I keep getting a notification that and iTunes update for Yosemite is available.  I have installed the update 12 times, but still have the notification from the App store.  I am not sure what to do.

  • Monitor no longer sleeping after 10.8.2 & Mac Mini EFI update

    Hopefully someone can help out here, my new 2012 Mac Mini was running fine without any problems, then when I installed the 10.8.2 update (not the original update that got pulled from the Apple site but the newer version) with the EFI Mac Mini firmware update my monitor won't go to sleep anymore. It used to do this without any problems, but since the update it goes to the screensaver without any problems but when the time comes for the monitor to go into sleep mode the screensaver just stays frozen on the screen until the Mini itself goes to sleep. Anyone else had this problem and managed to solve it? Thanks!

    OK, as a further step, I typed pmset -g assertions into Terminal and got this response:

  • How to synchronise window itune library and mac mini itune library

    Hi,how can I synchronise Window 7 itune library and Mac mini itune library?
    Meaning copy wholemedia library to the other itune(window itune/mac mini itune)
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your advice, but I did AB audition between Home sharing my other laptop itune and playing direct thru my mac mini (Direct playing thru mac mini SQ is better than playing Home sharing thru wifi) that's why I want to copy my full itune library from my other laptop into mac mini.
    Blame it on my ears..

  • Cant use my Ipad with my Mac Mini after updating Ipad OS

    So after upgrading my ipad2 to the latest OS, it now will no longer communicate with my older mac mini. I open itunes on the mac with the ipad attached and it says I have to update to the 11.1 version of itunes to access the ipad. But my Mini Mac only runs Mac Os 10.5.8 (try to do a software update but it says everything is up to date) which is below the system reqs for the new itunes. Did apple just screw me? I like to put songs and what not from my computer onto my ipad, and likewise get video from my ipad onto the computer. Does anyone know a workaround? I wouldnt like to revert the ipad back to the older version because I recall having some other issue where I was forced to upgrade it.

    Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu and check the processor.
    If it's a PowerPC Mac, you can't sync the device, but depending on your country, may be able to download iTunes Store purchases straight onto it and/or sign up for iTunes Match.
    If it's an Intel Mac, click here, install the DVD, and run Software Update twice.

  • Mac Mini, iTunes 7.4.2, Mac OS X 10.4.10 -- firewall rules are broken

    Last night I updated from 7.4.1 to 7.4.2. Nothing else changed on my Mac Mini (Intel Core 2 DUO) running Mac OS X 10.4.10.
    I immediately found that none of my other computers nor my Apple TV could reach my shared music library, which is hosted by the Mac Mini.
    I normally run with the firewall enabled and in fact the box is checked to allow iTunes music sharing. HOWEVER, since upgrading to iTunes 7.4.2, the firewall rule is somehow no longer sufficient.
    I had to turn off the firewall in order for my other computers and the Apple TV to be able to reach my shared library on my Mac Mini.
    Effectively, something has changed w.r.t. sharing in iTunes 7.4.2, such that the default firewall rules in Mac OS X 10.4.2 are no longer allowing clients to connect to the iTunes shared libraries.

    The 1G iPod should still work OS X 10.4.11 (Tiger).  Since the Mac still sees the iPod as an externally mounted drive, we'll take that as a good sign.
    Have you seen this article yet?

  • Windows to mac mini itunes transfer

    I have a windows xp with all my itunes library that I want to transfer over to my new mac mini, how do I go about it?
    Also have a new Sony PSP, how do I transfer library to the PSP from either the mac or my windows laptop?

    Jack,
    do you have an iPod? If so go to www.apple.com/switch/howto/ipod.html
    You can use your iPod as a hard drive to transfer your files (including iTunes library) across from your PC to your mac.
    I did the exact same operation a few days ago. The only thing that I had difficulty with was reformatting the iPod to work with the mac once the transfer is complete. An iPod software updater downloaded from this website did the trick and everything works brilliantly now.
    If you do not have an iPod you could copy your files to a CD or DVD and that should work. I would suggest it would be best to drag the files from my music rather than copying them straight from iTunes and once this is done deauthorizing your old PC in iTunes.
    Sorry, cant help with the PSP.
    Good Luck,

  • Setting Up Mac Mini / iTunes Server Help

    I have a new MacMini that I wanted to just leave on and use it as my iTunes media server for my various iDevices and ATV's.  I have an external Thunderbolt G-Drive attached to the MacMini with my movies, music, home videos and photos on it.  The MacMini will only be used for the purpose of streaming my media and nothing else.  The MacMini drive has nothing on it but whatever it came with the initial OS.  If anybody could provide me with any tips to keep this running as smooth and as fast as possible I would appreciate it.
    This is what I have done so far.
    I have a Cyberpower Smart App Sinewave UPS system connected to the MacMini.  This allowed me to set up in preferences an automatic smooth shut down of the MacMini in case of a power failure.  My router is also connected to the UPS system as well as the external drive.  I do have a small monitor attached to the MacMini that I can turn on to the proper HDMI input to work on the MacMini, so it is not set up as a headless system.
    Tha MacMini is dircectly conected to my router via ethernet so the WiFi portion of the mini is not being used.
    Do I need to turn of the wifi via preferences manually or does the ethernet hook up take care of that an I don't need to do that?
    Is there a way to get iTunes to automatically launch after the MacMini reboots?
    How can I handle updates automatically to keep the MacMini up to date with minimum if any interference from me?
    I know I can also schedule an automatic reboot at certan intervals but not sure where to set this up nor if its needed?
    Should I set up the MacMini to Never Sleep Mode or let it put the hard drive to sleep?
    I know some people have had issues with the hard drive not waking from sleep mode hence iTunes will not work properly.  This has been via firewire hook ups and I am not sure if that would happen via thunderbolt or not.  If there is anything else I can do via hardware or software that I am missing let me know. 
    Thanks

    The MacBook Pro is sometimes at work, or otherwise "off" in the house. I don't like having to go and turn it on, just to access my itunes library.
    That's one downside of AppleTV2 - cheap, small and low power usage but lack of onboard storage means you need a computer on for streaming, which is less than ideal when you have a laptop.
    So I've been thinking... maybe a mac mini is the solution? I could set it up near the TV, leave it idle and access media when I need it.
    That would certainly work. I have both the current Mac Mini with HDMI and an AppleTV hooked up to the TV - I either use wireless keyboard/mouse or AirMouse on my iPad to control the Mini. You don't necessarily need the Mini connected to the TV but I do in order to do things AppleTV can't.
    Right now all of my itunes is on my MacBook Pro. If I wanted to copy over the library is this possible?
    Several ways to do it.
    I don't want to do a complete restore on my mac mini of the macbook pro from time machine, since there is a lot of stuff that just isn't necessary to transfer.
    Not advisable to restore a MacBook Pro to a Mini in any case. You should stick to the same hardware for restoring.
    So is there someway to either sync the libraries, or copy things? Basically, I want to keep both libraries up to date, likely I'd download things on the MBP, but would then want to access this media on the mac mini... what can I do about this?
    Easiest thing is to use Home Sharing - sign in to Home Sharing in itunes on both computers - this will allow you to copy material from one library to another, you can even configurre it to do so automatically if you want to. (Depending on your home network speeds this may be initially slower than say simply copying all the iTunes media to an external drive and then copying this into the Mini library, but once most stuff is copied, additional transfers will be incremental and relatively quicker.)

  • Questions about mac mini iTunes server, streaming to macbook pro, ipads, etc.

    I'm thinking about getting a mac mini to work with my NAS as a iTunes server. I have a bunch of questions about this. I will have two iPhones, a few iPads, and a laptop that will be accessing the files. I have iTunes match. This is basically to keep an always on computer for hosting the music/movies. My questions are as follows . . .
    #1 Are there any good, comprehensive guides to show you how to do this?
    #2 Can the movies be accessed when not at home on the shared network?
    #3 Can the iPads or the macbook pro download the shared movies to be stored locally?
    #4 Back to #3, how will it work on my macbook pro with listening to music (I have iTunes match)? Say i go to library and I break out my macbook pro and I don't have internet. What happens if I download music while at home onto my macbook pro to listen to it when I go to the library? Will i start a new library on my macbook pro? How will that mesh with the home server when I come back.
    #5 Is there a way to mirror files or folders? So something that I have on my macbook pro will also mirror on the home server.
    Thanks for your help on this. I'll post any follow up questions.

    2. I want to replace the HD with a 128GB SSD 840. When I replace these drives, will my OS still be in tact? I have never done this job before.
    No. You will have to format the drives in Disk Utility>Erase to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and then install the OSX by using the original install disks.
    3.) I want to replace the ram sticks to max capacity. This is 2 2GB sticks, Correct?
    No.  An early 17" 2008 MBP will accept 6GB RAM with the following specifications:  200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM.  The best sources of Mac compatible RAM are OWC and Crucial.
    4.) Most difficult...
    I want to extend the monitor wirelessly to a projector. I thought about using Apple TV and Airplay. However, support for airplay is for MacBooks 2011 and newer. I thought of using a PS3 and the media server, but I think this brings on a format compatibility issue. (my library is so large I could not afford to convert all my movies to MP4.) So, how would you recommend I put my extended monitor with VLC player onto a projector?
    Could I possibly connect the MBP to a Mac Mini as an extension? would this work natively? I would rather use a VGA cord than F with 3rd party app BS.
    Cannot help you there.
    5..) I want to Bypass iTunes this time around. I would prefer to use Finder and VLC to manage all of my music. I mostly play all my music on shuffle, so, could I create a playlist on VLC with all of my music and play it randomly? (im sure this is possible but i'd like to organize all my plans with confirmation.)
    You are not obligated to use iTunes.
    6.) Can i upgrade the keyboard to backlit? i've read that this is possible.
    All MBPs have back lighted keyboards.  Your either needs a NVRAM reset or a repair.
    Ciao.

  • Help: Install Snow Leopard Server 10.6.0 on Mid-2010 Mac Mini, then update?

    I just purchased a Mid-2010 Mac Mini with Snow Leopard Client 10.6.3 (the new ones just released) with the idea of installing my copy of Snow Leopard Client on it and using it as both a network server and media server.
    I own Snow Leopard Server 10.6.0 (the initial DVD release) and was thinking I could do a fresh install and update to 10.6.4 on the Mini without problem, but that didn't work. I also tried doing a Target Disk Install to the Mini using my MacbookPro, but the installer choked at the Machine Checksum saying MBPs weren't supported to run the installer.
    So, that blows both of my previously known installation options. I was wondering if anyone else with the new Mini and Snow Leopard Server had any suggestions on how to get my current version of Snow Leopard Server (10.6.0) installed on the Mini and then run system updates to get it to boot properly.
    Thanks

    Hi GrainFocuser;
    Your copy of SL Server version is probably too old to install on the new Mac Mini. It probably doesn't have all of the correct drivers for the newer hardware.
    You might have better success with your alternatives if you post over on the server forum instead of here.

    Allan, thanks.
    It is pretty clear that my installation disk is too old, hence looking for options and suggestions.
    In years past with previous versions of Server, there was a way to install an outdated install disk (a point release or 3 behind) and then run the necessary installation updates...either through target disk mode or on to a separate boot disc.
    So, with my 10.6.0 Server Install disc, I am not able to do so in either scenario because a) My other admin machine is a MB Pro and the installer performs a hardware checksome preventing install...so no Target Disk Mode, and B) Install on other disc from mini, again Hardware checksome since hardware not recognized.
    I am looking at options to enable an install with my disk short of having to physically walk into Apple (a huge trek) and get a new install disk or ask Apple Support to mail one.
    So, again... Any options from OS X Server Admins out there?

  • Mac Mini iTunes auto launch

    I have a Mac Mini connected to my Sony Bravia thru an HDMI cable. When I tell the TV to change to the HDMI port that the Mac Mini is plugged into, iTunes launchs and starts playing. I've tried everything to tell iTunes not to do anything. I think the TV is somehow sending a "play" command thru the HDMI to the Mac when the port becomes active because, if there is a paused video open in Quicktime, it will begin playing on its own when the port becomes active. If there is no movie open, then iTunes lauches and starts playing. Does anyone know of a way to stop this from happening?

    This is totally crazy.
    I reinstalled, which went well. I put the mini back in the entertainment center and rebooted. I switched to the TV and back and iTunes launched automatically. I checked Login Items and iTunesHelper was there. I removed it, logged out, logged in, switched to the TV, switched back and iTunes launced again
    I checked LaunchAgents and LaunchDeamons in both  /Library and /System/Library and LaunchAgnets in ~/Library and there are no iTunes related files. I checked in both Finder and terminal just to be sure.
    I opened Users & Groups, and there was no iTunesHelper in the Login Items. I opened Activiy monitor and there was no iTunesHelper process running. While screen sharing from my laptop, I switched the HDMI ports again and iTunes again launched, but what's worse, I watched iTunesHelper just appeared in my Login Items, even with the padlock closed!!!
    Its like its possessed or something
    I checked every setting in iTunes and didn't find anything that would seem to cause this.
    I very much appreciate your help and suggestions. At least this is giving me a reason to dig around in Mavericks which I haven't done much of yet.

  • Mac Mini iTunes viewing on iPad

    i have a large iTunes library in my Mac Mini.  If I buy an iPad, will I be able to view my albums, artwork, libraries from the network where my Mini has the library(an external drive)?  Kinda wanna be able to sit and browse thru my collection i.e. album art ect on an iPad.  Not much value on my iPhone since its small screen.  Thanks

    You will be able to view and play your Mac's iTunes library via home sharing - both the iPad and Mac will need to be connected to the same network and iTunes will need to be open on your Mac.

  • Mac Mini Yosemite update failed now stuck in loop

    Hi I did the stupidest thing possible when upgrading an OS, didn't take a backup. Instead of trying to find space on a drive I just hit update and now I am kind of screwed. I have a new Mac Mini I bought in January of this year. The first time I downloaded yosemite from the app store and it failed due to "essentials" package. After several restarts and failures I booted to recovery mode and attempted to reinstall the OS from there. Three days later and that has failed countless times both on wifi and a hard ethernet connection.
    Can anyone suggest a way to either get me back to mavericks or get yosemite to install correctly that won't involve me losing everything on the computer?

    1. Boot into Recovery Mode
    2. Plug in your external HD
    3. Open disk utility and select Macintosh HD
    4. Select "New Image"
    5. Save it to your external HD. (If you want, you can create a read-only image, instead of a compressed image by selecting read only for the image format. The read-only takes less time)
    6. Wait for it to create the disk image
    7. Once it's done, click the erase tab on your Mac HD disk.
    8. Select "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" for the format, and Macintosh HD for the Name.
    9. Click Erase (Note: this will erase all data on your disk)
    10. Re-install OS X.
    Hope this helps, and if you need clarification on any steps, just ask
