My Mac Mini starts to boot up then after a few minutes turns off. Please help.

seen this happen many times, usually always due to corrupt memory.......could be a power module in the Mini, but unlikely. hold down command R on startup, see if you can get into safe mode or ANY SCREEN ...If under warr. call mac for a service check, ....BUT if you have spare memory around that is compatable, try that first, process of elimination diagnostics.

Are you using the Office for Mac 2011 version, as you need to do? The Office for Mac 2004 is Not at all compatible with Mountain Lion, and the 2008 version has been noted to have some problems running with ML.
Hope this helps

My Quicksilver G4 boots up and after a few minutes working shuts down

Hello Ollie,
Have you blown the dust out lately?

I have just upgraded to IOS 7 and for some reason iMessage and face time will not work. It asks me for my Apple ID username and password and when I enter then it tries to sign in and then after a few minutes comes up with cannot activate try connection ?

I have just upgraded my iPad to iOS 7 and now FaceTime and iMessage will not allow me to sign in. I enter my appl I'd and password but after a few minutes I get a message to say cannot activate try network connection then try again no matter how many times you do this it will not sign in. Any thoughts ?
Thanks neil

try resetting your phone by turning it off and back on again. The servers may still be having a hard time keeping up, so you may just need to wait a little while and try again.

Itunes freezes on my mac mini?? its okay for the first few minutes then freezes. i just then get the colour wheel and have to 'force close'

hi there, i have major problems with itunes freezing on my mac Mini, its okay for the first minute or two then it freezes and i get the spinning colour wheel and i have to force close.
can anyone help?

I suspect that you'll have to mount that volume at boot time and not at login time as you're doing now. If you can arrange that, then the volume should be available to all users.
Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to do a boot-time mount. I tried searching for "mount drive startup mac" (without the quotes), but most of the results described how to mount a volume at login time. Ignore any advice that mentions "Login Items".
I did find this discussion, but it's very sketchy. You also have to be careful that any advice you find applies to the version of OS X that you're using.

Mac Mini worked at first with Haier 42" plasma - now won't. Please Help!

I'd be interested in any resolution here. Here's my story:
I have a Mac Mini model MA723LL/A and a Haier P42LV6-T1 42" HDTV plasma with VGA and HDMI inputs. I first attempted to hook the Mac to the plasma TV using the DVI->VGA adapter that came with the Mac. I got no image at all on the TV, and the TV claimed 'No Signal'.
Then I used a DVI->HDMI adapter, and hooked the Mac to the TV thru the HDMI port. I got a picture and was happy. I setup iTunes, got the wireless working, surfed the web a bit and all was OK except the resolution seemed wonky. So I opened the Mac's settings panel to adjust the resolution, and as soon as I opened the settings panel, the screen went blank, with the TV claiming 'No Signal'. I shut off the Mac and rebooted, and from that point forward, what happens is this:
press On Button->
Apple Boot Screen->
MacOS 10 loading->
desktop For About 1 millisecond->
screen goes blank with TV claiming 'No Signal'
I hooked the Mac to my Dell 20" LCD monitor thru the monitor's DVI input and got a great picture. I tested all the resolution settings, and everything was fine. I have tested the Mac on the TV with all available resolution settings and it's always the same story (see above for sequence)
I'm kinda at the end of my rope. The Mac seems to be changing something on its video output at the end of its bootup, but I have no clue what. Has anyone seen anything like this? Any advice at all?

Try what Apple recommends and see if that helps:

My Macbook Air will start and then after a few minutes the HDD fills up with 29Gigs and I have to reboot!

when i run my macbook in safe mode it is perfect fuctionality and shows 29 gigs free space of the 120 total of the flash drive, however, when i start normal it works good for the first few minutes and then i get the startup disk is full error message and then it will momentarily lock up. I turned off the time machine which has been locking up since April 25th, and it will also act "glitchy" while it is working for the time until the storage is full pops up.
I have erased tons of stuff and have almost 30 gigs free, but then it just fills up - is this a virus?? HDD issue?? I have had no problems until recently with one time the computer locked up and it has gotten worse over time - i am open to suggestions - thank you

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.
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 request 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 "Model Identifier." 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.

My apple trackpad seems to have a mind of its own, it will be fine then it will go wild and start moving all on its own, clicking and going from left to right in spastic motions, what do i do, is it a virus or dust or what?

Does your "System Preferences > Sharing" look like this (no sharing options have check marks)?

recently purchased itunes match .but now every time i turn on itunes it starts to load song ect but after 5min or so it crashes and turns off

Hi,
I suggest that you open iTunes and hold shift key whilst signing out of match. Now close iTunes and reboot computer. Launch iTunes and then turn on match. You will be asked to add this computer. Do so. Let match process complete.

K7T Pro2-A (MS 6330) Boots for 4 secs then turns off Please Help !!

X-((Hey guys,
Thought I would give this a shot before i take this mobo back to the store ....
Some insight to my reason for buying this mobo....My mothers ABIT kt7a-Raid quit powering any agp and PCI devices so I went out and bought her the K7T Pro-2 (MS 6330). I am using a AMD 1100 Tbird i beleive (its been awile and several puters since i built it for her) A1100AMS3B to be exact ....... I hope this is from memory w/o taking the h/s back off. I am using the same Alpha Heatsink/fan
Now the P/S does suck as the case was a cheapy deal but i have already set my true AT 430 on it and i get the same results.
With nothing pluged in no Vid, no PCI devices, not even the Memory or IDE for HD it boots for about 4 seconds with the LED going red-red-red-red at first to blank-green-red-red then the led b4 shutdown green-red on first 2 with last 2 red-red then blank-red-red-red then it shuts down automaticlly.
these results i got with all or just some devices plugged in troubleshooting diff things
so I am basiclly not used to having to spend 2 evenings id rather be playing games working on this thing and am to the point of taken her back to the store. Now i dont wanna trash the MSI board its just my second experiance with one and neither was impressive.....And yes I know this isnt a top of the line board but seemed to be the only thing i could find from my reliable local retailer.
any help would be great and thanks in advance!

Any chance your heatsink isn't fitted tightly on the CPU or that you have an extra snand-off shorting the board to the case where there isn't a hole in the board ?
Did you try clearing the CMOS ? Clear CMOS Guide

My Iphone 5 crashed yesterday, when i try to reboot it it comes up with the apple symbol but then some kind of script runs down from the top of the screen, then after a while it turns off again. Also sometimes it just has a white screen with pink lines

I have also had the screen have two vertical white blocks on a black background. I have tried rebooting it and restoring it but it has not worked. I have managed to get it to turn on once briely but then it crashed again. I have had it since febuary and have recently ungraded to IOS7.

Went to restore it and it can't restore, got error 2002.
This is just great.

Kazandjaz, Welcome to the fourm! There is a 99.5% chance that your problem is caused by a failed internal power supply unit (PSU)! If you have operated it for about 18 months or so, that is the cause. Take it to your nearest Apple dealer and ask them to check it out.

My Mac Mini starts to boot up then after a few minutes turns off. Please help.
