Mavericks 10.9.1/iMac Mid 2011/VLAN problem
Hello all,
I have this problem since Mavericks migration.
My iMac network interface is directly connected to a switch using a custom VLAN on the switch side (id 4). DHCP Client is selected and a DHCP server is ready and working to deliver the right adress, but the iMac interface never lights up. VLAN is not configured on the client side (no virtual interface, just using standard Ethernet interface and DHCP setting). This configuration has never been working on Mavericks, but used to work perfectly on ML.
To make my iMac interface work, I have to be connected to the switch using the default VLAN (id 1). However, as my secondary VLAN works using id 4, I should then remap any switch interface to id 1 and then activate a virtual interface using id 4 on any iMac computer... which works, but which is also something I don't want to do, because it would involve too much work on the network side.
Am I facing a bug, or is there a deep change on Mavericks' network pile, which would involve using only a default vlan ?
Many thanks for help or suggestions.
Hello,
Interesting information : I couldn't reproduce this strange behaviour on a 2012 MacBook Pro. Regarding VLANs, everything works fine and as expected on this plateform. Still buggy for iMac 2011, though...
Many thanks for help or suggestions.

Airplay icon missing - iMac mid 2011 type with Mavericks installed
Hi,
I am having a problem with Airplay. I have installed Mavericks on my iMac Mid 2011 type and noticed that the airplay icon does not appear on the menu bar as advertised by apple. I am able to play both music and video through the itunes but I am not able to do any mirroring. The airplay display does not even appear in the display settings. Also, I am prevented from using any other alternative solution such as AirParrot. It just gives me a connection blocked error. I have checked the firewall and all is ok. I would really appreciate some help.
Thanks!

Why doesn't the new ram memory for iMac (mid 2011) work (different brand)?
Hello,
I have an Macbook pro at home (early 2011) and an iMac (mid 2011).
My macbook pro had 2 x 2GB ram and I wanted it to be higher, zo I bought 2 x 4GB ram from Kingston. I installed it succesfully in the macbook pro.
I saw that the ram in my macbook and iMac where the same type (1333MHz DDR3), so I figured the Ram-modules were interchangable. The iMac has 2 x 4GB ram put in by Apple itself. It's a weird brand name, something Asian that I hadn't heard off.
I thought I could put the original ones from my macbook pro (brand Samsung) in with the original ones that where already in the iMac.
So the slots would look like:
4GB 4GB -> already in iMac, original modules with brand name I can't remember ;-).
2GB 2GB -> original modules from macbook pro Samsung
I also put in in like shown: the same types next to eachother.
Then I turned my iMac on and it only "beeped".
So I tried to put it in different combinations (4GB next to 2GB etc etc). But it still "beeped".
Very frustrating... because I thought I was doing a good thing by buying Kingston (quite expensive also...).
Now I think I had better purchased new 2 x 4GB Samsung and combined that with the 2 x 2GB Samsung from the macbook and put it all in the iMac. And take those of the iMac (2 x 4GB Asian brand) and put those in the macbook... This way it were all the same brands combined...
But I did by Kingston... so... why can't I combine the original iMac ram modules with the Samung modules from the macbook????? I've read that in older iMac models, the slots are sensitive for different brands, but couldn't find out for sure for my iMac (mid 2011). It's a bit stupid, no... Both mac's are from 2011 and have the same specifications...
Could anyone give me an answer?
A little bit mad at Mac right now ;-).
Thanks in advance!
Wallking.
PS: if it is about the OSX I'm using... can't update to Maverick for software licence reasons... I need the iMac for work a lot...Hello,
I'm sorry if it wasn't clear... but I don't have ram issues with the Kingston type...
I used the new Kinsgtons in my macbook and wanted to take the originals from the macbook (Samsung) and them put in my iMac next to the other modules that were already in the iMac.
I know it's a bit confusing... ;-)
So... I have 2 x 4gb in my iMac from a brand I can't remember the name off... And I also wanted to put in 2 x 2 GB Samsung modules. So that would count up to 12 GB ram. Why? Because I took the Samsung modules out of my macbook and I thought I could reuse them in my iMac since they have the same specifications (1333MHz DDR3). But My iMac won't start up as soon as I insert those 2 Samsung modules. -
How do I get my iPhoto library from a ppc g5 to an intel iMac mid 2011
How do I get my Iphoto library from a ppc g5 to an intel imac mid 2011?
I recommend tha tyou do not use migration assistant - it has a poor record of moving the iPhoto library successfully
Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

Win 8 pro to win 8.1 pro on Imac mid 2011
Hi Community!
I'm experiencing the same issue as this thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/23429321#23429321
But it's on my Imac mid 2011.
I had windows 7, I upgraded with a windows 8 succesfully but when I want to update to 8.1 I have a black screen at the end of the installation (no lights) exactly like the computer is Off. When I reboot it restore to win 8
So I decided to restore windows 8 with a fresh install (all programs and files deleted) and bootcamp 5 installed before.
I have the same issue , I thought the problem was because of one of my drivers.
But even with a brand new Win8, with last update, The update 8.1 give me this **** black screen!!!
I tried with last AMD HD drivers in case it was the graphic drivers.
I really don't understand what happen!!
I have two sort of error code when It restore to win 8
0x1900101 - 40019 or 0x1900101 - 4000D
Does anyone have a successful update to win 8.1 with an Imac mid 2011?
I try to install with a complete win 8.1 DVD (no update) I will work?
thanks for your helpWell, I have finally figured "my" issue out. For me, it was the video driver for my 6970M adapter. The real kicker is that the driver provided by Microsoft during the windows installation which correctly identified my device was NOT compatible with 8.1 The driver provided by Bootcamp driver installation was NOT compatibile either.
Basically, you have to uninstall the display adapter and have "delete the driver" box checked in device manager. Leave it like that, do NOT reboot and install 8.1 The incompatible driver will put itself back on there again but, at least you'll be able to get into 8.1. You just have to uninstall that device again and go to AMD directly for the latest driver.
So, below is a more step by step of how I got my 8.1 passed the black screen issue.
I did a clean install of Windows 8.
During the installation process, select customize settings and turn OFF automatic windows updates AND turn OFF automatic driver updates.
Once at the desktop, uninstall the device AND device driver (display adapter). Do NOT reboot.
At this point I had to do windows updates to get 8.1 to show up in the windows store. However, if you have to do this, UNCHECK any driver related updates first. It will tell you to reboot, go ahead and do this. Once back at the desktop, go into device manager and make sure the display adapter is uninstalled/driver deleted or its at least the microsoft generic adapter. The point is to make sure no device specific adapter is installed.
Proceed to install 8.1. Let it go through its reboots and setup.
Once at the desktop of 8.1, go into device manager and see if the generic driver is there of it its a device specific driver, uninstall the device/driver, do not reboot.
Go to AMD (my display adapter maker) and get the latest drivers from them directly and make sure its for 8.1
Install that driver and reboot. It should work from there on out. You can then proceed to install other devices and bootcamp drivers.
This is what I had to do for my black screen problem. Its important to note that the black screen issue is common but being caused by a variety of issues. I was on the phone with Microsoft this morning and explained all of this and my steps that were taken. Its clear MS has a bad update package especially since 8.1 isn't playing well (causing black screen) with drivers that Windows itself installed during install. My fix may work for some, but not all. I hope it helps someone. -
I bought a new mac including 10.8 Mountain Lion. (How) can I now install 10.8 on my older iMac (mid-2011) which came with 10.6?
You will need to buy it at the app store. The license for the pre-installed OS on your new machine is only for that machine. Only OS's purchased from the app store can be installed on more than one machine (as long as you own it).

Software Update is not finding latest release (April 3) of Java 2012 001 Update on my iMac mid-2007, but it downloaded it automatically on my iMac mid-2011 yesterday. Both are running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3. When I try to download the update manually from Apple on my older iMac, it downloads okay, but when I try to open the dmg file, I get a warning message saying that opening this update may make your computer LESS secure. Do you want to proceed? (I did not).
Why would Software Update find this update and install it automatically on one iMac and not the other, if they are both running the same version of Mac OS X Lion? I checked the installed software list on my old iMac and the Java update does not appear there. Why would this update make my old iMac less secure?Recall that Java is not installed as part of Lion.
You have to install it (and are asked if you want to) when you first try to run some java stuff.
Is it possible that the iMac 2007 does not have Java yet?
Try this: open Terminal (from Utilities) and type java -version (exactly like that, with the space before the hyphen).
What do you get?
Consistent with this theory is that the dmg thing gave you the warning - installing java might make your machine less secure because java is a means for bad guys to try to do bad things to your computer.

Ruido raro del HDD al apagar iMac mid 2011
Hola. Tengo un iMac mid 2011. La mayoría de las veces se apaga muy muy rápido y el disco duro hace un ruido al desconectarse igual al que hace cuando se va la corriente. Cuando se apaga algo más lento no lo hace.
En Agosto tuve que llevar el iMac al SAT porque el anterior disco duro se había roto y no tenía ni un año!. ¿Podrían decirme si este ruido que lo provoca algún componente independiente del disco duro puede acortar la vida del hdd? En caso afirmativo, ¿cómo podría arreglarlo?.
¿Es normal que ocurra esto?.
Gracias de antemano.Vuelva a colocar el hardrive.

Sometimes the sounds comes after i restart the computer a few times, and the sound disapears again if the computer goes into sleep mode or after being idle for sometime, I also changed the settings to not let the Imac sleep but it still lose the sound.
By the way, during the start up if i hear the sound then sound works but many times only dvd driver spinns and no sound.
could be fault in the sound card or motherboard, i am actually new onto Mac world.

Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.
There is also a possibility the switch in the headphone jack is stuck. There is a tiny red light that you will see inside the jack if the switch is stuck on. -
Hi everybody: can anyone confirm that Continuity features are definitely NOT working on iMac mid 2011 (my Mac) ? thank you in advance
Hi,
the Continuity features don't work definetly on iMac mid 2011, unfortunately. Only iPhone-Calls can be answered. I tried it out. If you don't see the handoff button in <system preferences - general> (the handoff option button must be visible below the <used objekts> and above the <LCD> option buttons), you don't have the feature on your machine. And it won't be.
Sorry.

Anyone else having this issue? What wasyour fix?Thanks for the reply, but I did a silly thing - or didn't do due diligence:

However, thanks to you, I now know how to getting to the Airplay settings - didn't know that before.
