Planning on the core solo

hey how good is the core solo mini? i need to get my family a new one. there using my imac g5 and having to clean the mighty mouse every three days is annoying. i also dont trust there carlisness on how they treat it. dont say just tell them to be more careful cauz i have. so is the core solo like the g4? that would be great to let me know. i have all the other stuff. just need the mini. the mini would be used for web surfing and light word processing

so is faster or as fast as the g4?
I have two G4 minis, an original 1.25 model and a later 1.5. I have also installed a small number of Core Solos and Duos for users, and had a Core Solo to play with for a couple of weeks recently when the user complained it was faulty (it wasn't) and had the chance to compare it directly with the 1.25 G4. The Core Solo was noticeably faster on native software, far less so when running applications in Rosetta, though in that instance it depended somewhat on the application - MS Word for instance seemed more responsive on the Core Solo, while Photoshop seemed about the same.
All in all, it seemed a good system - plenty powerful enough for some heavy use, which isn't entirely surprising since there are still a lot of old (much slower) G4 systems around doing complex publishing, design, digital editing work and despite it's size, the Core Solo is more powerful than those systems.
Critically, for apps that are non-native and thus require Rosetta, the more memory the better. Indeed that's typically true for any mac running anything. Thus I'd recommend 1Gb to those who hope to use older software, where 512Mb might be sufficient for native versions.

  • Intel Mac Mini Core Solo - Kernel Panic on Boot

    I was wondering if anyone who has purchased the Intel Mac Mini is having issues with Kernel Panics during the booting sequence?
    I got a Core Solo from the local Apple store (couldn't wait to play, I'm waiting on the Core Duo I ordered online to come still ). The first thing I did was fire it up check it out for a few minutes, then I put the install disc in and reinstalled a clean OS, with less options because I'm planning on hooking it up to my TV so I don't need space hogs like Garageband etc on my TV computer. I got the updates that popped up, then shutdown the computer. I took it out to the living room and hooked it up to the tv and I got a black message about needing to restart (a kernel panic) right when the blue progress loading bar comes up on boot. I spent a while with it trying to figure out what was wrong, ran the Apple Hardware Test, booted it fine in Safe Boot. Finally I got tired of it and reinstalled the OS again.
    It was fine for a day, working fine out on the tv. I brought it back in my room to play with a few things like Darwine, etc. Shut it down, came back an hour or so later booted it up and got the kernel panic on boot. Safe boot still worked fine. I spent some time trying to look for panic logs but didn't see any. I ran the disk utility and did a Full erase and it worked fine. I reinstalled the OS again. Ran MemTestOSX and it worked fine. I left it running the Apple Hardware Test for about 6 hours or more, and it performed perfectly.
    This morning it still seemed ok, except sometimes on a cold boot when the blue progress bar screen should come on... my monitor just shows black and the light on the monitor goes inactive. So, I press the button on the back to sleep it, then bring it out of sleep with the keyboard and the OS is sitting there booted.
    It seems like a weird combination of software and hardware problems, but maybe it's all hardware problems. I can't get past Safe Boot working when the OS stops loading. Right now the computer is working fine.
    I'm waiting for my Core Duo to come in the mail and verify that it works flawlessly, then I'll take the Solo to the store and ask them to look at it.
    Anyone have any similar experiences so far?

    It seems like the mini is doing alright so far. I think maybe the full erase solved whatever issue it was having. I also got my Core Duo Mini yesterday in the mail and it's performing like a champ. Definitely a nice machine.
    I'll close my question for now, since the Core Solo Mini seems alright. But, as a warning don't get on Front Row's bad side. I tried force quitting it because it was taking too long to load the videos folder and then tried shutting down from a terminal and ended up having to turn the machine off.

  • Mac Mini - Core Solo - Won't See Any Wireless network

    I have a Mac Mini, first gen Intel, Core Solo, that won't see any wireless networks. However, it will see my extreme basestation, and my two airport express devices over bonjour, which makes me think that the wireless device is working.
    I've reset the PMU, with no luck.
    Any suggestions?

    Does an Airport card show in the system profiler?
    Is Airport switched on in your mini - the Airport icon in the menu bar should show at least grey bars rather than an empty white 'fan' shape?
    With Airport on, when you click on the Airport icon, does it show any network?
    If you click on 'Join Other Network' and type the name of the wifi network you run, what error message does the system give?
    How far away from the wifi base station is the mini? What kind of structures and environment is it in?
    If you move the mini to be in close proximity to the wifi base station, does it show any signal?
    When you download a copy of AP Grapher (http://www.chimoosoft.com/apgrapher.html) and run it, what does it show for signals, noise etc?
    How is the mini seeing any wifi devices via Bonjour - do you have it wired into your network? If so, the fact that the devices appear via bonjour doesn't mean they are transmitting wifi, nor that they are in range.
    By the way, the Core Solo mini doesn't have a PMU to reset. If you used the PMU reset procedure it won't have helped, and may actually have caused problems. The correct procedure for an Intel-based mini is an SMC reset, as follows:
    -From the Apple menu, choose Shut Down (or if the computer is not responding, hold the power button until it turns off).
    -Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord and any display cables.
    -Wait at least 15 seconds.
    -Plug the power cord back in, *making sure the power button is not being pressed* at the time.
    -Then reconnect your keyboard and mouse to the computer.
    -Press the power button on the back to start up your computer.

  • Mac mini Core Solo is a great deal slower then 1.5ghz mac mini G4??

    I have two mac minis, one has a 1.5 Ghz G4 and the other has a 1.5 Ghz Core Solo. Both have 512mb of RAM and OS X 10.4.7. I have the same software installed between them. They both have the latest updates for Office 2004 installed, both have the latest system updates, latest Firefox updates, both have latest Adobe Reader updates, and both have Quark 6.5 installed.
    The Core Solo mac mini is WAY slower then the G4, Entourage in particular is almost slow to the point it is unworkable. Is this due to the Rosetta emulation? What can I do to improve this, will increasing the ram to 1 GB clear these speed issues or am I going to have to return this mini and get one with a Core Duo?
    The current sluggishness on the Core Solo mini is unbearable, literally my Powerbook G4 667mhz with 768mb of ram is loads faster then this mini is. I'm thinking more RAM will do the trick, but wanted to bounce this off of some other experts here first. Thanks.

    Entourage in particular is almost slow to the point it is unworkable. Is this due to the Rosetta emulation?
    Yes, almost certainly. Microsoft Office is not yet Intel-native, so it's gonig to run more slowly than a native edition would. The same will apply to any PowerPC-only software.
    What can I do to improve this, will increasing the ram to 1 GB clear these speed issues
    I can't say for certain, but other users have reported that increasing the RAM to 1GB (or beyond) has made significant improvements in performance.

  • Anyone running Parallels on Mini Core Solo?

    I've seen widely varying reports (but only a few, not enough to come to a conclusion) about how well (i.e. acceptable speed, or too slow?) the Parallels Desktop virtualization software (which allows running Windows alongside Mac OS X, rather like Virtual PC used to do) runs on the Core Solo Intel Mac mini, which is the only Intel Mac without the Core Duo CPU.
    We need to get a Mini for the office, to run QuickBooks (only, no games or anything else); the Core Solo is within budget, the Duo model is beyond it, and more than we need otherwise.
    Anyone here tried running Parallels on a Core Solo Mini? Care to share your experience?
    Andrew Main

    I’ve installed Parallels Desktop and WinXP on my Core Solo with 1GB RAM. I also have a MacBook so I have compared the two.
    The Good News:
    The speed of Windows in Parallels is what you’d expect from a basic Celeron PC with integrated video from a couple years ago. In other words, if you will be using programs with modest requirements such as word processing, spreadsheet, or database with medium data sets you’ll be fine. Anything that requires graphics acceleration...forget it. Screen redraws are slow because they are done through the Mac. I don’t mean you can watch each pixel be written but you can watch the screen redraw.
    I have two tasks that require a PC - one is accessing a .NET based website that only works in WindowsXP and Exploder 6. The day that company has a viable competitor that doesn’t require Exploder we jump. The second is a data mining program. My mini and Parallels Desktop handle this just fine.
    The Bad News:
    Installing WinXP was something of a challenge and it was only through Parallel’s fantastic forum and tech support that I finally succeeded. But remember - I was on the cutting edge at the time working with a beta product. Parallels ships with a disk image program. I’ve found that it is best to make a disk image of the installation CD rather than use the CD itself. This applies to all CDs.
    I also found it impossible to update to WinXP SP2 - my computer always hung during the process. (That may have been a glitch with early beta releases, I don’t know.) Luckily at work we had a WinXP w/ SP2 install CD - and commercial license - that installed without a hitch. But be warned - installing WinXP on a core solo with Parallels is slow. Start in the morning and keep an eye on the screen as it progresses - and don’t expect to use the computer for anything else. The installation will be using 95-99% of the CPU.
    BootCamp vs Parallels:
    In a word, significant. I’ve not done any benchmarking but when you run WinXP natively you realize just how much horsepower Parallels and OS X is taking away from Windows. Not to mention how much faster the screen redraws.
    Differences between Core Solo and Duo:
    Night and Day. It is like the difference between running Windows with an older Celeron and a new Pentium (excluding screen redraws which are slow because they are done via the Mac’s graphics package rather than accessing video directly.) On the mini, when I am processing data with the data mining program I can’t use the mini for anything else. Running the same process on my MacBook I can surf, read email, play a couple rounds of Soduko, whatever.
    Conclusions:
    If your budget is for a core solo consider using BootCamp rather than Parallels. The speed difference isn’t as significant as between solo and duo but it is significant. The Intel Macs boot quickly enough that your downtime isn’t tremendous. Having said that, in my own circumstances I find the speed of Parallels on my mini to be sufficient that I chose it rather than BootCamp. You might also want to consider a refurbished rather than a new core duo. Hope this helps.

  • 10.6.8 Wifi Mac Mini Core Solo Problems

    Hi All,
    I have had my beloved Mac Mini core solo (1.5ghz) since 2007 and have had regular upgrades to keep it alive (upgraded hard drive, ram etc.).
    A couple of days ago I upgraded the airport card - it previously was only 802.11 a/b/g, but I now have the atheros 9280 802.11 a/b/g/n successfully installed into the machine.
    The main reason for doing this is that my previous airport card just never seemed to work at all; I have an iphone and ipad and they both successfully connect to my Orange livebox router with no problems whatsoever, yet my Mac Mini did not connect at all having tried everything I can. Therefore my final solution was to arrange an update of the airport card to the new atheros one suggested by my local Apple dealer.
    I brought the Mac home, and tried to attahc to my wifi router to immediate success. It had full signal strength and was working flawlessly. I then turned the machine off, went out for a while and then came home to find it was not working again and kept searching for the wifi router and asking for constant passwords. After a long time, it seemed to work again but after I turned the machine off it lost the settings (depsite me asking network settings to save via the locked button) and I am constantly repeating this process.
    I am therefore wondering if anyone can help. The atheros 9280 airport card information is as follows (from the system profiler):
    Software Versions:
    Menu Extra: 6.2.2 (622.2)
    configd plugin: 6.2.5 (625.6)
    System profiler: 6.0.1 (601.1)
    Network preference: 6.2.2 (622.2)
    Aiport Utility: 5.5.3 (553.20)
    IO80211 Family: 4.0 (400.40)
    Card Type: Airport Extreme (0x168C, 0x8F)
    Firmware version: Atheros 9280: 2.1.14.6
    Locale: FCC
    Country Code: DE
    Supported PHY Modes: 802.11 a/b/g/n
    Supported Channels: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,36,40,44,48,52,56,60,64,100,104,108,112,116,120,1 24,128,132,136,140
    Wake on Wireless: Supported
    Status: Network Service Inactive
    Just to also add that its Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Intel Mac Mini core 1.5ghz solo, and my Orange Wifi router is quite old (around 2006) so supports a/b/g - I was thinking that this may be the fault but why would all my other apple systems have no problems with this connection?
    Any help would be really appreciated as I'm going a little nuts here!

    Really? I thought Sno was supposed to be more efficient?
    I'd say that SL is more efficient on a machine it was made to run on. Apple didn't exclude the single core Intel processor, probably because they didn't have to change their code like they would have for a PPC processor but part of the efficiency is it's ability to split services to the separate cores in the CPU. You only have one, so that part of the improvement is of no use. All of the processes the OS handles and splits to multiple CPU cores are worthless and your programs will just have to wait until the CPU has time for you.
    Meanwhile, the programs you are running are more powerful and provide higher quality and really need the extra core. The speed of the ram, the buss, and the hard drive are not as fast as your MacBook either. All of this data has to be moved around quite a bit from the drive to ram and then back to the drive.
    Christmas is coming
    WinXP will run on a 600Mhz PII processor with 128MB's of PC100 ram, but you wouldn't want to. It's not a lot of fun to work with or work on.
    Unless there is some whiz bang program or technology that you need from SL, I'd take the machine back to Leopard or even Tiger, which it probably ran pretty well.

  • CBO generating different plans for the same data in similar Environments

    Hi All
    I have been trying to compare an SQL from 2 different but similar environments build of the same hardware specs .The issue I am facing is environment A, the query executes in less than 2 minutes with plan mostly showing full table scans and hash join whereas in environment B(problematic), it times out after 2 hours with an error of unable to extend table space . The statistics are up to date in both environments for both tables and indexes . System parameters are exactly similar(default oracle for except for multiblock_read_count ).
    Both Environment have same db parameter for db_file_multiblock_read_count(16), optimizer(refer below),hash_area_size (131072),pga_aggregate_target(1G),db_block_size(8192) etc . SREADTIM, MREADTIM, CPUSPEED, MBRC are all null in aux_stats in both environment because workload was never collected i believe.
    Attached is details about the SQL with table stats, SQL and index stats my main concern is CBO generating different plans for the similar data and statistics and same hardware and software specs. Is there any thing else I should consider .I generally see environment B being very slow and always plans tend to nested loops and index scan whereas what we really need is a sensible FTS in many cases. One of the very surprising thing is METER_CONFIG_HEADER below which has just 80 blocks of data is being asked for index scan.

  • Can two Instances of Planning share the same SQl Server Instance?

    Hi
    Can anyone clarify me on the below
    Is it possible to have our DEV and TEST instances of planning (on different host servers) point to different tables in the same instance of SQL Server 2005. I know that the apllication databases can be directed to different table names but what about the core tables:
    FSDHAADMS
    FSDHBIP
    FSDHSS
    FSDHPLANAPP
    FSDHPLANSYS
    Thanks in advance.

    I think it will work. As long as you create separate SQL databases for the planning system files for dev and prod on the sql server. If your planning web for dev is deployed on server x, and planning web for prod is on server y, when you run config utility on server x you would point to the SQL database u created for dev. Repeat on prod when u run the config utility just point to the planning system database you created for prod.
    haven't done this myself but sounds possible.

  • Apple Wireless Keyboard on Mac Mini Core Solo CANNOT be found !

    Hi,
    My Apple Wireless Keyboard (non-aluminum)was working perfectly with my Mac Mini core Solo. I had to change the battery and after that I cannot connect to my Mac Mini.
    I tried:
    1. Update the Bluetooth software (from the downloads from Apple.com).
    2. Remove all the keyboard definitions in the System Preferences, Bluetooth.
    3. When I try to connect by selecting Keyboard in the Bluetooth Assistant, I won't get any device.
    4. When I try to connect to any device in the Bluetooth Assistent, I'll see the only Apple Wireless Keyboard I have, but then pairing failes.
    5. Only by using a USB keyboard I could enter my MacMini.
    Questions:
    a. How all of a sudden this can't work ?
    b. How to I "reset" the keyboard ?
    c. What can I do ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Rokesh

    i am having this exact same problem. Keyboard isnt seen if I select "Keyboard" in the bluetooth setup assistant, but if I select "Any Device" then after a moment "Apple Wireless Keyboard" shows up in the device list but it will refuse to pair, saying it doesnt have any configurable services.
    Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Mac mini core solo running very slowly

    Hi folks, long time reader, first time poster (sorry, couldn't resist):
    I just got a nice shiny new core solo mac mini 1.5 with stock ram and it feels like it runs slower than my 450 mhz dual processor powermac. Activity monitor shows that if I try to run microsoft word and entourage at the same time I run out of free ram - is this normal? I'm thinking of upgrading the ram, but don't want to void the warranty if it turns out to be a hardware problem. Any ways that I could check it out?
    Thanks
    Mike

    Yes.
    Running Microsoft PPC binaries under Rosetta will take more memory. And the stock 512 meg is sufficient, but as with any modern Operating System, more memory means better performance.
    I went to Best Buy recently and picked up these 2 sticks of RAM giving me 2 gigs of RAM in my Mac Mini Intel Core Duo:
    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7644196&type=product&id=1134699426 321
    I replaced the preinstalled RAM in about 10 minutes. Undo the case (worst part actually), remove 4 screws, disconnect one onboard cable, replace RAM, reverse process.
    It made a huge difference in just about everything, as was expected. It also seems to have cured my video bleeding problems too.

  • Mac mini core solo upgrade

    hi
    I have been reading about a Mac mini CPU upgrade from a 1.5Ghz core solo to a 1.83ghz Core 2 duo. I was wondering if I managed to get a CPU for it, would the genius bar at apple store be able to put it in for me as I don't want to take all the motherboard out in such a tiny such a tiny computer and I would also get 2GB ram for the mini as well. I need a core 2 duo due to it been 64bit for Mac OS X Leopard
    hope to hear from someone soon
    Thanks
    Message was edited by: Mac User & Proud

    I second Gordon's estimation of the genius bar's willingness to do such work. You might find an Apple certified technician at an Apple certified repair concern that may do such work, but that would probably not qualify it for warranty consideration. If you don't want to do it yourself or have someone not at the genius bar do it, you're probably better off selling it and getting a new Core 2 Duo Mini.

  • Mac Mini Intel Core Solo 1,5GHz won't turn on

    Hi at all!
    I'm in a trouble with a Mac Mini Intel Core Solo-based.
    Well, when I connect power cord, after a while, Power LED self-turns on (without powering on the Mac), but Startup Chime isn't played, there aren't no video signals on screen, Optical Drive mechanics isn't initialized and no Hard disk Drive noise is audible.
    I can hear only (if I put my ear on Mini's body) a bit Fan Noise (and a bit air flow on the back).
    If I stay-pressing power button for 4 seconds, Mac turns off. It I re-press that button, Mac turns on again. Finally, if I long-press the power button, Mac DON'T perform PMU reset (with classical speed flashing of power led, Long beep and Startup Chime).
    What can I do to fix this problem?
    Thanks very much to all readers!

    You're right!
    I wrote PMU instead of SMU.....in fact, mine is an Intel-based Mac, and PMU is present only in PowerPC Architecture.... ^_^
    Sorry for my expression error.....:)
    While I'm writing..... I thought that, in my Self-repairing operations on the Mac Mini, I've also replaced the internal 3V battery (because, with a multimeter, I'd can verify that battery voltage was only 1,75V instead of near 3V). After that, I left Mac turned off for a certain interval of time (I was busy in other personal activities). So, when I turned on again the Mac (after the complete reassembly of the entire computer), the Startup chime was played and the Mac beguns to work.
    Is possible that, in the Mini - Intel Core Solo 1,5GHz, a low internal battery can cause problems like in the old dear iMacs G3 ????

  • Latest version that will work with Mac mini Core SOLO under Snow Leopard?

    Latest Flash Player 11 versions will work with Snow Leopard, but they say they require a Core Duo or newer processor.  What is the last stable version of FP that will work on my mom's Mac mini 1.5Ghz Intel Core Solo (running OS X 10.6.8)?
    Have searched archives and web for this and still draw a blank.  Thanks!

    Fixed it!
    I mounted it in target mode again and manually applied the 10.5.4 combo updater ad it now boots again.

  • 10.6 on Mac Mini core solo?

    I want to confirm that the $29 version of OS X 10.6 that Apple sells will install properly on an Intel Mac Mini core solo.  The specs say it should, but I get a "Mac OS X can't be installed on this computer" message when I try to install that OS with the disk from another computer.

    It will it the mac meets these specs.  Note 1 gig of memory required.

  • Core Solo Power Troubles Any Ideas?

    I recently purchased a Core Solo which don't get me wrong has been a great machine only used for Front Row on Our TV Via the DVI to RCA Connector. Well after leaving it on for 2 weeks i couldn't wake it up so I power down did the PMU reset thing along with everything else I could think of and now it is totally random when it wants to work. if it is left on for any amount of time it stays asleep and I am totally out of Ideas to fix this. if anyone has any ideas or if this is something I need to take it back to the Store for let me know what you think.

    So a little more infomation I tried for an hour last night to get it running and now it won't start up if I try the unplug and wait then plug in while holding the power button it will start but the fan starts at full speed. and there is no light on the front of the computer.
