Mac Mini to TV display

I am trying to play 1920x1080 output from FCE via new MacMini (2.0 GHz, 1GB)to TV set. I am not having much luck. Trying to output several different formats, including AIC, but not much luck. Is anyone doing this? If so, what is your setting - Formats, network, MacMini H/W setup? Trying couple of methods: A - stream from the iMac I use for editing, but the network link is obviously slow (wired 100G ethernet) and the display freezes a bit. Will Gbit network upfate be sufficient? Method B: transfer the outputs to the MacMini HDD, but again, no matter what the format type, the display is "jerky". Maybe the mini is too weak, maybe the format I am setting is wrong. It all displays o.k. on the original iMac, but it is 2.66GHz, 4GB based and has smaller display, which doesn't display the artifacts as much. I am tryin got use QT-pro for playback. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Depending on how old your television is, not many TVs can support the frequencies any computer generates (Mac or Windows). The latest 2008+ HDTVs should be able to handle the ones generated. I tried using my 15 year old 35 inch analog television and the Mac loading swirlie shows for a few seconds and blacks out the television.
Your other bet is to get a big enough computer monitor you are comfortable with in watching television or computer stuff. I have a 25" Hannspree HDMI monitor that works fine. There is also a 30" Apple monitor but given the price comparison (up to $2000 to $260), I chose the Hannspree over that.

No idea if Windows will do it, but you can run Windows without Bootcamp & have OSX available at the same time, which should give you all the Monitors that OSX uses.

Mac Mini + A1038 Cinema Display does not work

Hi,
I have a 2009 model Mac Mini with mini-dvi and mini-display port's on the rear. I can connect any of my DVI based monitors to the mac mini using either the mini-dvi to dvi cable or the mini-displayport to dvi cable. All monitors except for the A1038 model Apple Cinema Display.
The cinema display works with 3 other computers with DVI ports, turns right on and is detected right away. When plugged into the mini it does nothing. Sometimes I can get it to work with the mini-dvi to dvi adapter but that is sporadic.
This is the same behavior with a 2009 model mac book pro and macbook. Using the mini-displayport to dvi cable the cinema display does not work but 3 other monitors do.
So my question is, why does apple hardware only work with non-apple hardware?

Is the A1038 the old, plastic Cinema Display that doesn't have a power cord or power supply? It only has a video cable with the special ADC on it? If that's the case, it needs this to run from a newer Mac:

Intel Mac Mini Pink hue display problem

Originally purchase a refurbed Mac Mini 1.66 Intel Core Duo, and over the years I've upgraded the RAM (w/ 2 Gigs) replace wifi "G" card with "N" card. Unfortunately, my mac mini died. Went to the Apple store in Tampa, and the genius said the logic board was toast.
I replaced the logic board with 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo board, and everything is working fine except for the display.
When it starts up, the standard grey screen now has a pink hue. After booting is finished the screen still has the pink hue. However, after a bit, the screen turns to normal, but there is some flicker. My mini is connected to a Samsung LCD 17" display that is working fine. There are no cable issues, I connected the display to my iBook, and it works fine.
Has anyone come across this before? Do I need to reseat the RAM sticks? Is there a software setting that I need to change since I upgraded from a 1.66 logic board to a 1.83?
The logic board is under warranty, but I was hoping to get some answers that can be easily fixed instead of sending it back.

I took the mac mini to work, and hooked it up to my monitor. It still displayed the pink hue at start up. I'm leaning toward this being a bad logic board.
One thing that is curious is that the screen will loose most of the pink hue as the Mac Mini warms up. It's almost back to normal, but the colors still have a little too much pink even after adjusting the monitor. Also, you can see flicker as it warms up as well.
I'm sending back the logic board for replacement.

Mac mini mid-2011 display issues 1920x1200 on a HDMI monitor?

Just puchased a mac mini and am challenged by the display settings. When I first powered it on using either a display port to HDMI or supplied hdmi to DVI (then the monitor's DVI to HDMI cable), the display is severly off center with issues seeing the system bar on top and icons on bottom. So, once I was able to get to the System Panel, I found that it configured itself to 1920x1200. I cannot get 1080p to center and 1080i has grainy text. Does this mean I need another apple accessory, ie display port to vga? Or is this an indicator that monitor and mac mini are incompatible? Or is this an indicator that the mac mini has a lemon card?
(NOTE: I am downloading system updates to see if there is a firmware update. Thanks

Your monitor has a native pixel resolution of 1920x1200. There is no point in trying for 1080-p or -i.

Mac Mini (Mid 2011) display artifacts HDMI to DVI at native res

Hello,
I recently changed monitor configurations and in the process moved my Mac Mini (Mid 2011) to a HP LP2065 monitor. The connection is made through the stock supplised HDMI to DVI adapter.   The monitor and the DVI cable work successfully with other machines.
What occurs is only certain colors, usually black, result in the display being red and/or sparkling and/or static (like TV static) when the monitor is set at its native resolution of 1600x1200.
If I bump the resolution down to 1280x1024, or lower, the black color returns and I see no display glitches.   If I bring the resolution back up to 1600x1200, the display artifacts return.
A few google searches suggest I use a DisplayPort to DVI adapter instead as some monitors are "finicky".   Does anyone agree with that? It seems peculiar to me -- why would a digital signal have analog-looking glitches?
Any ideas welcome.. thanks for reading

Use Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter to connect Mac Mini to Cinema Display?

Hi
I have a new-to-me current model Mac Mini and want to use it with my 20" Cinema Display (model A1081).
The Mac Mini instructions say to use the HDMI port on the Mac Mini with a DVI>HDMI adapter cable. I seem to have only a DVI>Mini DisplayPort adapter cable. I'm guessing this will be OK to use, but don't want to fry the system straight out the box
Can anyone confirm it's OK to use DVI>Mini DisplayPort connection to drive the display?
TIA
Jim

Thanks for the reassurance BSteely!
One thing I've seen when rummaging through the forum is a suggestion that with MDP>DVI adapter is problems with display waking from sleep. Short of setting it not to sleep, is there a workaround to wake it up again if it doesn't respond to usual stimuli?
TIA
Jim

Mac Mini Doesn't Display through Philips Tube HDTV

I have a Philips tube HDTV with a VGA connector in the back, and used the DVI-VGA connector that came with my new Mac Mini to connect. I don't have a computer monitor at home. The TV doesn't display anything.
So then I took the Mac Mini over to a friend's. He has a VGA monitor, and so he ran the Mac Mini through setup and set it to the lowest possible display settings. I came back here, rebooted and plugged it back in; still no display.
Then I tried this:
"First thing to try is to boot the mini into safe mode by holding down the shift key as it boots up. This should allow it to boot, and then give you access to the display preference pane to adjust the settings back to those that worked.
If that doesn't work, try disconnecting the TV, and rebooting the Mac with no display attached. Once it has fully booted and enough time has passed to allow the desktop to be displayed, reconnected the TV. This should force the mini to boot into a low-res mode that works with just about anything, then when you reconnect the display, either cause it to auto-sense the correct resolutions, or give you access to display preferences."
This didn't work either. Any suggestions?

Hi Alan,
Check your TV manual to see what resolutions your VGA/RGB connector on your TV will accept. Being a HDTV it is likely to be from 480p to at least 1080i.
You then set the resolution in your Display preference pane to 640x480 and you should get a picture on your TV. The trick is to set it when you can't see anything! Attaching to another device may not help because the Mac detects that device when you set the Display and will know its not that when attached again to your TV. When attached to your TV it is setting another resolution it thinks will work. It is clearly guessing the wrong screen resolution when you do connect it.
I overcame this situation myself using a VNC client. That requires you to have another computer you can use to control your Mac Mini via VNC. You can then access the Display pane via VNC and set the 640x480 resolution which will work.
For setting 1080i (and the VNC process) please see:
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060319073027371&query=1080i%2BMac %2BMini
I am guessing you can also use an S Video adapter - available from Apple - to connect to an S Video port your TV may also have. That won't help with the VGA connection though.
Hope this helps.

Brand new mac mini and Studio Display 17" LCD- 2 adapters needed- problems?

From many forum posts here and elsewhere it seems I can in fact hook up my Studio Display 17" LCD monitor if I used the ADC-DVI adapter. But has anyone used the ADC-DVI adapter AND the DVI-mini DVI adapter that came in the box with the Mac mini?
Apple tech support told me on the phone tonight that doing so would "fry" the Studio Display.
Has anyone had any problems using this? Will running it through 2 adapters cause problems as opposed to the older minis where you could just do ADC-DVI and then into the computer?

Were you able to get your display working? I have an LG 27" at home connected to a Mid 2012 (June) MacBook Air 13" that has absolutely no issues. However, I just obtained the same Samsung monitor you have and appear to be having the same issue.
The only solution that I have found is to unplug the power from the back of the monitor or at the power supply each time my computer either wakes from sleep, screensaver, or a display that is powered off. This seems to be true via the following connections:
1. HDMI to DVI thunderbolt adapter
2. HDMI to Thunderbolt adapter
The display powers on with a slight flicker and then will immediately stop displaying the image on screen. What's especially strange here is the MacBook Air still believes the display is connected -- my login screen or active apps that are displayed on the external monitor do not move to the MacBook Air display as if it's no longer connected.
I hope someone has a solution to this issue! Thanks!

MAC Mini Performance and display quality help needed!

I am new to the mac, having used pcs for what feels like hundreds of years.
I am enjoying the experience, but my MAC mini is so slow. Its a 2014 i5 2.6 Ghz with 8GB of RAM.
For example starting safari takes 20+ seconds from clicking the icon to being able to type a web address.
Also the display is not brilliant the text is blurred. I am using a LG HD Monitor running at 1920 x 1080 and 60 Hz.
I have a Dell PC with very similar specs connected to the same monitor and it does not suffer blurred display.
Thanks for your help

Mac Mini login not displayed after screensaver

I have a Mac Mini that routinely (several times a week) will not display the login screen after the screensaver has kicked in. The screensaver is running find (e.g. changing which pictures are displayed) but when you move the mouse to stop the screensaver the photo being displayed freezes and the login (list of users) is never displayed. When this happens it is either hold in the power button or do a remote login to use the command line to force a reboot. This problem has existed for many months (multiple Mac OS X updates).
When this happens there are typically two users logged in. One an administrator and one a regular user with a few limitations. Parental Controls are enabled for the second account.
I tried searching the forum and couldn't find a solution mentioned. I apologize if there is one mentioned. Any help would be appreciated. This is a big issue since this is the machine my young kids use and they're not techie enough to reboot without risking corrupting file systems.
Mac Mini 2.26GHz
Mac OS X 10.6.7
Has one External drive connected and always on
Is set to never sleep (it acts as a server)
Is set to reboot on power outages

Okay, this is strange. I tried restarting three times yesterday with the same results. In fact I left it go overnight only to find the next morning that the bar was still stuck at 30%. I did a hard boot a little bit ago and waited a few seconds. I restarted an it booted up fine.

Recommended Mac Mini (Late 2014) Displays

Just purchased the Mac Mini (Late 2014) with Yosemite (latest version).
I need to purchase two displays, one connected to the HDMI port, another connected to the Thunderbolt 2 port.
Does anyone have any recommendations for displays that would suit my set up?
I will be using the displays for working in Pro Tools. One display for the edit workstation, another to watch the movie on.
Cheers,
Lou.

I should have added I always recommend getting a display that you've seen in action. What gets a good review isn't necessarily a good display for you. I must admit that more than once I've visited a big box store and then checked out online prices and ordered elsewhere - if the big box didn't honor the low price I found. Do check out other Dell displays (though avoid their lowest end models). Dell has some very good displays in the $150-$200 range (or lower if you catch a good sale).

Mac mini (late 2014) display Flicking/goes Off and On

Hi everyone!
Well.. i can say that, this is my first Mac computer and i already have problems. I have read a lots of comments and i have seen that many people experienced this problem with Mac mini, like display corruption, not property colors, flicking, display goes off and back on... or just standing on sleep and not turning on. (like Mac mini 2012 or 2011.. i have read about same issue..) so whats really happen?
So, from the peoples comments i tried possible solutions:
SMC Reset
I have Reinstalled the OS X Yosemite (complete HDD format)
I have changed the cable
(Nothing works)
Some detail about my connection:
I have Mac mini (late 2014) i5 2,6GHz dual-core, 8GB ram, Iris Graphics (Intel), 1TB HDD
I have connect it via miniDP to DP > to > Dell UltraSharp U2713HM
My following issue:
-Screen goes Off and On without reason (mostly happens when i connect my iPhone i have noticed, or maybe just impression..)
-Screen goes to Sleep without reason while i'm on computer (this normally happens after a few off and on screen flickers)
-Image corruption/distortion (after this display goes off and on, or just remaining on sleep.. like not detected
I hope someone can help me with this problem, i just bought it one week ago and i don't know what should i do, because as well i have read that even i'll change it, it can have the same problem.
Waiting or a response,
Best regards.

Update: I'm coming back with a possible tip for fixing this issue (I hope Apple Stuff will notice this.)
So, how i said in the previews message.. the Image corruption / and going Off and On the display happens mostly when i'm connecting the iPhone. Theory tested a few times, and take a guess.. it's true.
When i'm connecting the iPhone, the monitor goes crazy.. for some seconds, turning off and on.. and sometimes Image corruption, then coming back like nothing happened. Because i found out this, i was making more tests with the iPhone.
First, erasing the disk and reinstall the OS X again. Everything worked perfectly, until i was connecting the iPhone. I got directly Image corruption and Screen goes Off and On a several times. After this is happening, and you'll unplug the iPhone and put it again, you may not receive again Image corruption or Screen to go Off and On, but after a restart when you'll connect it again, you will receive almost everytime.
So.. after this, i was testing further. I have Paired my iPhone with iMessage and FaceTime, to see if can be a possible issue there also. True again!
Receiving messages from iPhone to Mac / Sometimes display goes Off and On
Receiving a Call via FaceTime to Mac (from your iPhone carrier) / Image corruption / Screen Off and On
After a day of test, i have realise where is the problem. "iPhone connection/Mac"
So, the cable it's good (connection miniDP to DP), by Surfing and by running other Apps i have no problem (at least until now), the only problem what cause the Image corruption and Screen Off/On for several times, it is only because of the connection with the iPhone.
I hope is someone there from Apple Stuff that will take this as notice to solve this problem. Because it is 99% software problem, and i hope it will appear soon enough an Update/Fix.
Thank you!

Mac Mini (mid 2011) Display Issues

Hello.
Recently I started having some issues with the display from my Mac Mini (mid 2011, core i7, 8GB, OS X 10.9). During usage the screen started flickering erratically and then went blank. I turned the Mac off and found that it was very hot so I removed the bottom cover and the RAM chips and gave it a bit of a clean (it was quite dusty) then I allowed it to cool before putting it back together. After putting it back together it worked for about a day until it had the same problem.
Now on startup the following occurs:
1. On the start-up screen (where the Apple logo is displayed) the screen is overwhelmingly pink (display RGB settings are fine), except for the left half of the Apple logo which remains grey.
2. After progressing through the start-up screen the display goes white and nothing further happens.
I have checked the display and it works fine. The HDMI cable is not the issue either.
Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be causing this and a possible fix?
If it is of any help the monitor is an ASUS MT276H.
Thanks.

So I have tried a SMC reset and all that has changed is the front indicator light is off and the fan has kicked it up to 11. Please find a picture of the display I described earlier at the following link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wirrc01xut3p8tx/Photo%201-12-2013%2010%2054%2004%20pm. jpg (sorry it was taken with an iPhone 4).
I have never performed an SMC reset before but it seems like it is taking a long time and/or not working. I'm at a loss to what this might be.
