Air Port Express/ Mini Mac problems

Trying to link my Mini Mac to an iMac - both old.
iMac is successfully running 10.4.3 with Airport Extreme working.
Mini Mac (old) - no airport card - hooked up to AirPort Express with ethernet cable.
Mini Mac/ Airport Express seem unable to connect to Airport Extreme.
Located about 50 feet away from each other.
Any suggestions? Would it be better to connect the Airport Express to the Mini Mac with a USB cable?

Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
First you need to configure your AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express so that the two AirPort units for a "WDS" network. You can find instructions starting on page 42 of this manual:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/Designing_AirPort_Networks10.5-Windows.pdf
Any suggestions? Would it be better to connect the Airport Express to the Mini Mac with a USB cable?
That won't work. The AirPort Express USB port is only for a printer.

TS4088 why is there a limit on 3 years? it should be all the MacBook Pro mid 2010 with symptoms, there should get their logic board changed for free, mine mac is 3 month late and i had this problem for over a year, but i first saw this article today :(

Hey Clintonfrombirmingham
I called Apple technical support in Denmark, but with no positive reply.
She couldn't do anything, and said that They had sent a recall Email about the problem and with their offer to repair the Macbook Pro, but I'd never recieved an Email about the problem. She wasn't in power to make an exception. It can't be true that i paid a lot of money, for a product that can't barely stand on its own feets, Apple didn't tell me that the product I was about to buy, would restart every 5 minute. and now when they know the problem, they wont repair it? it just don't make sense for me. If a car seller discovers that all the brakes in a car he had sold, will crash after some years he will call all the cars back to repair no mater what. i just don't understand how Apple will make good service for their custumers, by extending the warranty from 2 to 3 years, but wont take the computers there is a little bit to old, 4 months will make the difference. i can't believe it.
What can i do now?

My mac Mini has problem rendering images and video

THE PROBLEM:
My mac mini has problem rendering JPEG image. There are strips on the images. Other images such as GIF, PNG, TIFF, and BMP are displayed nicely.
The images shown in the links below illustrate the problem:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/terencewong/71481156/
http://www.flickr.com/photos/terencewong/73360989/
(Please note that this image is grabbed from my faulty Mac Mini and saved into TIFF. For uploading purpose, I converted it into JPEG on ANOTHER computer.)
For movies, AVI can be playback without problem. But when it is converted to MPEG, it looks like an untunned TV channel.
FIXES TRIED:
I did erase and install 3 to 4 times using both the install disc and my Tiger Family Pack. All ended up with strips on the JPEG images and the generated MPEG movies.
I've also tried to flash the firmware to 113-xxxxx-124 using ATI's october 2005 universal ROM update, however, the ROM Revision shown in System Profiler is still 113-xxxxx-116 no matter how many time I reboot the system.
INVESTIGATION:
Yesterday, I did some research and got to know that JPEG and MPEG are using DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform) for decompression. And the ATI Radeon 9200 chip provide such a transform on hardware basis, which free the CPU from doing something else. Feel free to point out my inaccuracy.
HARDWARE SPECIFICATION:
I bought the Mac Mini in the last Februray.
The system Boot ROM version is: 4.8.9f1
Display card is ATI Radeon 9200
Chipset Model: ATY,RV280
Revision ID: 0x0001
ROM Revision: 113-xxxxx-116
A POSSIBLE CONCLUSION:
I suspect that it is this part of the chip (the DCT) that is faulty.
Anyone know how to fix this problem?
Many thanks!

Assuming that your display is tightly connected, thus the problem is not caused by something as simple as that, the fact that a full erase and install has not removed the problem would, I think, point to this being a hardware issue, and given that everyone's mini (with the possible exception of some of the latest ones) has the same video chipset as yours, and do not suffer the problem that you appear to, it seems very likely that your mini has a fault which is in need of repair.
If you have an Apple Store nearby, I would take it there to have it checked out - at the very least they should be able to replicate your problem using an in-store display, and if not, thusly suggest it's something external to the mini and concerning your display or something very unusual in the immediate environment of the mini. If you don't have an Apple Store in reach, I'd take the system to an Apple authorized service provider since at the present time it is under warranty.

I have just purchased microsoft office mac 2011 I installed it on my imac no problem but it will not install on my mini mac. when i put the disk in it says an intel based macintosh is needed. The box system requirements match my mini mac

I have recently purchased Microsoft office for mac. I have installed it on my imac with no problems. However it will not in stall on my mini mac. The system requirements state mac OS X version 10.5.8 which is what my mini mac is. When I insert the disk the page displays says Intel based macintosh needed any suggestions ?

Sounds like you've got a PowerPC G4 mini? i.e. NOT an Intel mini? What does it say after "Processor:" in "About this Mac"?

HT1338 Mini mac Apple TV screen jumping problem

I switched on my mini mac and Apple TV today to find they both seem to have the same jumping split screen problem. I have tried my ps3 into the same sockets and the TV seems fine is this an apple issue. Both my apple equipment were working fine two days ago when I last used it

So when it works in Safe mode using DVI, did you mean the signal is still passing through the amp/receiver that you plan on using? If that is the case, then I have a suggestion. Boot safe again in the same manner and when the boot completes and the TV comes up in 1024 x 768 as it does, go into Displays preferences and switch it to the desired resolution. Hopefully on doing so there will still be a usable image on the TV. If yes, then reboot normally. The last selection made under Safe mode should now persist through a normal restart and should stay that way ever after until you make a different selection again in Displays preferences.

USB problems - Mini Mac

I have a mini mac 2011, running latest Mavericks. When I plug in some usb sticks (i-flash drive - currently) dosn't show up in Finder. However when I remove the drive the system imeadiatly reminds me I haven't ejected safely - so it must know its there - Help!

Do you have "External disks" checked in the Finder Preferences....?

Hi i upgrade from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am getting no sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever

Hi i upgraded from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am no longer getting sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever.Any one any ideas?
I use a samsung TV for my monitor via HDMI.Tried all the system Audi setting nothing .Head phone and internal speakers are fine.

Similar issue; Audio was working fine on Lion, now not on Mountain Lion. Have a Macbook Pro early 2011 with AMD Radeon HD 6750M, connected by thunderbolt through a Lacie LBD to a mini-displayport to HDMI adapter (n.b. same problem when not going through the LBD) to a Pioneer VSX 521 AV receiver. For me when I go into audio Midi settings all the volume sliders for the displayport device are greyed out and at zero. But when I click 'configure speakers', it's able to send out the test signals to each speaker. Part of the problem could be that I'm not getting the option to put out 6channel sound, only 2 or 8 channel. Since my system is Dolby 5.1, and I only have 6 speakers, I would have expected the 6ch option to be available. But I imagine there's more to it than that. Elsewhere someone has suggested playing with Remote Interactive over HD on an Onkyo device; I'll see if there's something similar on the Pioneer that can be changed. Any other suggestions welcome.

My mini Mac with a i5 processor is extremely slow to open documents and programs. Is there a solution to this??

Anyone can asset me please. My mini Mac is a 2.3 GHZ i5 Core. 8 GB Ram 13333 MHz with OS 10.7.5.
Pretty much since day one this computer is very..extremely slow to respond to any command. Opening documents or programs the system spin for ever.
Any idea what could be causing this??? I was told that to many pictures slow down the system, I have only 700 pic on file

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 by the 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. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. 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.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. 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.
11. 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 what happened. No harm will be done.
12. 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.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. 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.

Mini Mac Remote Desktop and Elgato Video Capture Stick

I have 10 Mini Macs simultaneously capturing video via a Elgato Vapture Stick.
Instead of having 10 monitors, keyboards, and mice, I wish to control the Mini Macs by remote desktop. The problem is the Mini Macs won't refresh the video overlay if there is no monitor directly attached to them. I can establish a remote desktop but I can't see the video being captured in the Elgato capture window. As soon as I attach a monitor to the Mini Mac with the Elgato Capture Stick, then then the video is displayed correctly on the remote desktop. The goal is just to have one monitor on the Mini Mac with the remote desktop.

Actually, a slightly more recent version - 3.4.3 (6308) - is downloadable here

... directly from the Elgato support website.

I can't get into my Mini Mac

HELP!!!!
I have recently revided the set up my Mini Mac with two user accounts. No problem. Because the other user could access files on my hard drive, I set up an access code to the hard drive in order block the other user's access...big mistake.
Now, since the hard drive is locked, the operating system can not boot up.
My system disks are back in Australia and I am here in Kuching.
I ahve tried to access holding the option key and other keyboard prompts to no effect.
I tried the OS-X disks for another Mac (also OSX) here in the school but they won't boot up. At best I get a prompt asking to select the Hard drive or the system CD inserted but both are marked with an X and will not load.
Instead of booting up into the OS-X, it goes into the Linnex code and asks for user and password which I can provide.
Any ideas? I am desperate and feel very silly!
Cheers!

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
+I set up an access code to the hard drive in order block the other user's access...+
Can you explain exactly what you did? That may help explain your situation.
When you try to boot normally, explain exactly what happens.
Have you tried starting up in Safe Mode?
Please post back with updated information.
Good luck.

How do I convert my iPod Nano from Windows to Mini Mac?

I got an iPod Nano a few months ago. I have been doing pretty well with it... My husband just bought me a mini Mac and I want to convert it to be used on the mini Mac instead of my laptop. I have my music on a USB hard drive, so I know how to import. The problem I have is with my iPod. How do I restore a Windows based Nano to now work with Mac? My husband said he tried to restore on the Mac (the five Rs things), but I am not sure what he did. Where do I start, what do I do? As you can guess, I am not particularly good at Mac yet?
P.S. Is there a good reference for Tiger? I am still trying to learn that as well.

Typically, wehn you plug your PC formatted iPod into your awesome new mac, it should say something like, yo this needs to be formatted for a mac, and you agree with it, and it'll reformat your iPod for your mac.
This isn't true at all. The Mac will be content with using a Windows-formatted iPod and will never ask you to reformat it for Mac.
You'd have to reformat it on your own using the iPod Updater Utility on the Mac.
Just launch the iPod Updater Utility on the Mac, and Restore your iPod.
If you only plan on using your iPod with your Mac, then it is a good idea to Restore it on the Mac. Formatting it for Mac will allow it to perform faster on your Mac Mini. It'll mount faster, and transfer data faster. You'll also be able to use your Mac to do firmware updates to your iPod if it is Mac-formatted.
A Mac can't do a firmware update to a Windows-formatted iPod.

Midi keeps cutting out on Garageband (Mini mac)

I am using a (very old) Roland R70 drum machine as a trigger pad for the drum sounds on Garageband on my mini mac.
I have connected it via a midi/usb connector. To my surprise when I connected it for the first time it instantly worked and drum sounds were being triggered!! However, within a few minutes the drums stopped!
If I click onto another 'track' on Garageband and then click back to the drum track and the drums are there again....but for a few seconds, then the link goes and the drums disappear. This leads me to believe its not my connector or the drums machine. Because every time i do this 'reset' (clicking over to another track and then back again) the drums return.
Anyone have any idea why my mid signal keeps dying??

Bump - anyone got any ideas on this?
Here is something that may or may not apply. In other thread(s), I recall at least one other case where a person was having intermittent Midi communication issues. It turned out to be his cheaper USB/midi cable device was the issue, and the problem went away when he upgraded it. [That issue is somewhat troubling, as I personally have been eyeing a relatively inexpensive (i.e., <$8 online) USB/midi cabling device too. Evidently, sometimes they work, but can also fail.]

I bought a mini mac that was returned to a store; when I try to open iPhoto it tells me I do not own a full copy of the software and prompts me to sign into an applied that is not mine. How do I fix this??

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
That's a problem that all users of a second-hand Mac released after the OS X Lion launch have. OS X, iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand are registered to the Apple ID the first owner used to register the computer, so you can't use them legally without repurchasing them. Furthermore, there's a bigger problem: you have to get iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand on a DVD, because the App Store makes impossible to purchase these applications on a second-hand Mac.
Nothing will happen if they are already installed, but you won't be able to reinstall and update them, so I recommend you to delete them and buy iLife '11 on a DVD to install the applications from there. Also, take note that you can't also reinstall OS X, so if OS X gets damaged, you will have to take your computer to an Apple Store.
Open  > About this Mac, and tell us the OS X version you have. If you are using OS X Lion, you can upgrade to Mountain Lion with your Apple ID, so then you will be able to reinstall OS X

Mini Mac won't shut down!

Core Duo won't shut down or log out or re-start but can sleep. Can use terminal to kill processes but it is not an application causing the problem. The output is to a TV via S-Video and am using wireless keyboard via USB.
Appreciate any suggestions.

hello to the mac world
@sunra
same problem here on my mini mac, intel solo core, happens 3 times in one week now.
it seems that my mini ignores shutdown, restart and log out.
when I terminate the task "login window" then he jumps to the login screen, where I can shutdown or change the user.
anyone an idea about this little problem?
okay, it is not a big problem and with this problem I feel already home now...yes, I used windows the last years
greetings

ps: please excuse my bad english!
