New mac mini 2014 - thunderbolt 2 - 4k @ 60 Hz possible?

The headline says it already. Is it possible to run a 4k monitor with 60Hz with the the mac mini 2014 via thunderbolt 2 to a DisplayPort (DP) 1.2 connection? HDMI can only do 30 Hz which is not smooth enough for daily usage.

This concludes no

The problem I have is that when I start a Facetime video conference, the picture is unstable (shakes and flashes) after a couple of minutes.
The webcam works well with Skype and Viber, the problem is just with Facetime.

Can I use Dual Displays with New Mac Mini (HDMI Thunderbolt)

Hello Everyone,
This question may have been asked before... but I just purchased a beautiful new Mac mini and it has an HDMI port in the back and a Thunderbolt port. I am using a new DELL 23" HDMI monitor that also accepts DVI. I think I could run another monitor on the Mac Mini, but I don't know which is the best way to go... I purchased a mini-display port to DVI adapter because I heard thunderbolt could accept the mini-display cable.
1. Should I purchase the other identical Dell monitor and then run it on Thunderbolt 2 DVI and run it DVI
2. Or is there a HDMI splitter that splits the signal into two cables and go that way?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated Thanks!

I just got the mini server and run a 24" LCD off the HDMI port and a 19" off the displayport (adapter to DVI) and it works a treat there's no need for any splitter.

Can I use my iMac with a thunderbolt connection as an Display for my new Mac Mini with thunderbolt ??

Can I use my new Mac Mini with Leopard and thunderbolt in connection with my new iMac as a display ?

If it's a 27" iMac. I don't believe Target Display Mode is supported on the 21" model. But not with a Mac Mini running Leopard. It would need to be running Lion.

Mac Mini 2014 short freezes

Hello
Recently I purchased a brand new Mac Mini 2014 and sometimes I have this weird issue. Sometimes my mac has short freezes, i can't move cursor or type anything.
when I reboot my issue is solved but I find it quite annoying that this is happening.
I googled this issue but didn't really find anything simular to my issue.
It's like it running something very huge to process because if i move my mouse during the freeze it does move my mouse after the freeze.
I monitored my memory but I haven't noticed anything strange (is it normal I only have 5-10% of my 8GB RAM left?)
Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this issue?
Kind regards
Mathias

HDMI in Mac Mini 2014

Hi people, about a month ago, I received my new Mac Mini 2014, I connect it to my Panasonic 22" LCD TV, and I get the surprise of a not good image quality, I put down the Sharpness, and Noise Reduction, but still seems blurry and fuzzy text, it don't seems clear. Start reading on internet, found the solution buying a Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter, my TV got a VGA port, and it means could work, this might be the solution? or could be another? Also I try using SwitchResX but nothing changes, also my TV doesn't got the option of change the HDMI input to PC. This problem isn't to bad, but working or reading is really annoying and I know that could see better.
My Regards, to the Apple Community.

Maybe VGA would be better. I would first try:

Mac Mini 2014 and SATA HDD speed/negotiated speed settings question?

I have a new Mac Mini 2014 2.6GHz i5 - with the Hitachi 1TB 5400RPM drive running OS 10.10.1. It is working well and is a worthy replacement for our 2007 Mini.
Today I was looking around the specs and settings and noticed the SATA settings for the HDD drive showed the link speed at 6 Gigabit but the negotiated speed is set to 3 Gigabit. I have searched around and read about people having issues with other chipsets or hard drive firmware incompatibilities with other models of Mac. Why would this be? Is it due to the drive only supporting 3 Gigabit? Searching for the drive model seems to indicate it supports 6 Gigabit. Thank you in advance for all responses.

I greatly appreciate the prompt responses and link information. So, really other than a modern SSD, or high RPM drive, you will not reach the benefits of a 6Gb connection let alone possibly max out a 3Gb connection. Which for a mild daily use Mini would be overkill.
Thank you.

Well, I really would love the new unreleased mac pro however , I'm not sure of the expected cost , Everyone speculates from $3,000 to $8,000, in which I may have to wait a while to purchase.
To the point .... I want fully functional thunderbolt ports to be on the current mac pro's .... wonder if anyone had workarounds yet?... or could I chain the the current mac pro to a mac mini to make that happen?

New Mac Mini thunderbolt to DVI adapter issues

Hi there,
I'm working on a new studio installation. We have a new Mac Mini that we're trying to connect up to a 30-inch Cinema HD display with DVI input. We have a Kanex C30 Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI adapter that plugs into the Thunderbolt port and one of the USB ports (for power) on the back of the Mini, but despite our best efforts we aren't getting anything on the display. Going Mac - adapter - display results in about 7/8ths of the screen going white and displaying two green and misshapen Apple logos for about 5 seconds before it goes blank.
Ultimately we want to run it over quite a long DVI cable and currently have an Extron signal booster in place, which works perfectly from the Mac Mini's HDMI output through an HDMI to DVI adapter. However we're already using the HDMI output to feed another monitor.
So two questions really:
1. Can the Mac Mini feed two separate displays of different sizes? The 30-inch over Thunderbolt to DVI and another Apple 24 inch display over HDMI to DVI.
2. Does anybody have any experience with the Kanex or can you recommend an adapter that will work for us?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. This whole process has been a very long headache!
Many thanks,
Josh

Could be a bad cable or bad Thunderbolt port.

How do i connect my new mac mini to the thunderbolt display

how do i connect my new mac mini to the thunderbolt displa, It arrives tomorrow?

It has a built-in Thunderbolt cable, see here: http://www.apple.com/displays/specs.html
So assuming your mini has a thunderbolt port (you said it's new so I assume it does), you'd just plug the display's thunderbolt cable into the mini's Thunderbolt port.
