Text Edit application for Mac Mini 10.4.11

I am not sure if everyone is familiar with my "Mac Mini Saga", ( BDAqua certainly is! - by the way, congratulations for passing the 11000 mark! ).
Now that the Mini is finally updated to 10.4.11,(without the original install discs), so that the elderly lady owner can use Skype, she would also like "my" Text Edit app. which is not listed in her apps. - i was told it should be there, but it is not!
Looking at the details of this app on my iMac (version 1.5, 22.1 MB on disc), under File, i have the option: "Burn Text Edit to Disc". So, is it possible to include (transfer) this app. to her Mini after i copy it to a disc?

Not exactly similar, this text editor and writing tool can do several things;
and it (may still) runs free. I have a version of it.

The original Text Edit, part of the System's original apps package, is more
integrated with the original system installation; and should not be missing.
However, you can choose to have another similar app as default to open
or work with similar types of files.
And for more office-like apps, there's a 'free running' donation-ware suite:
• Neo Office:
http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/index.php
Text Edit version 1.4 from about 2005 (or so) should be what OS X 10.4.11
would have included in the installer and then on the computer in question.
The app is about 8.5MB, and may require the installer to place it correctly.
You may look into the OS X 10.4.x Install DVD for Tiger and use Pacifist
utility to look for and see if you can find the package in there, and extract
it via Pacifist; then install Text Edit from the desktop via this utility. It will
work in a demo mode, so you don't have to buy it, to try it out. It works.
• CharlesSoft - Pacifist:

There is no reason why the original TextEdit would not be in Tiger 10.4.
Unless some files were corrupted at a point during installation process.
Good luck & happy computing!

Seeking: Compatible text editing application for iPad/Mac/Windowsystem

Hi,
I am trying to locate a useful text editing app.
That is compatible to be used across iPad/Mac and sometimes on a Windows based Laptop.
I have been using both openoffice, and Textedit(Mac). Which I am using through USD Disk but Openoffice documents dont work on iPad, and as to Textedit documents dont appear on iPad as on my Mac!
Anyone, using a Textediting app on their Mac, that makes the document appear exactly the same as on their Ipad?
At this stage I would prefer an app that is for free, to play around with...

I have been trying several of the documents text editing applications! But most are not compatible across i.e. iPad, Mac, Windows-systems.
As I indicated I have converted an "openoffice" edited text into Mac's "Textedit" application everything looked simple and great on my Mac. But, on my iPad the documents didnt look identical. Also, wasnt fitting the iPad screen either, and most lines jumped few lines up or down, pictures were dislocated...
In case you know an text edit application, that is able to make documents look exactly the same as they look across iPad / Mac / Windows. In that case I would very much appreciate if you could name me that application!

How do I uninstall Adobe Digital Editions 3 (for Mac)???

Dear kind, knowledgable Adobe Staff member-
As a user of SEVERAL Adobe products, I am really NOT loving the fact that there is NO CLEAR answer that I can find here (OR even in doing a Google search) for how to completely REMOVE/UNINSTALL Adobe Digital Editions 3 (for Mac)...and there are a couple/few UNanswered Adobe Communities posts (such as this one) asking this SAME question!
If you're going to create an installer for the MacOS platform (which does NOT have the built-in Winblows uninstall "feature"), then PLEASE DO either include a uninstaller tool (either installed during the install process, built into the installer as an option, OR have clear, official, and easily accessible step-by-step instructions on how to do this!
You've lost ANY shot of my returning to ADE software by not having these features...please do help me re-instill some "faith" in your company's responsiveness to the current LACK of support that I am experiencing in attempting to remove this unwanted software from my computer!
Cordially,
Albe Sure

I DO very much appreciate the swift effort at attempting to help...but that is NOT a working resolution for me.
1) As I was very clear on in my OP and title, I am seeking assistance with uninstalling Adobe Digital Editions 3 (for Mac)...
2) BECAUSE Adobe is distributing this software as an "installer", I am not even going to begin to trust simply deleting the Adobe Digital Editions 3 app from my applications folder...no way! I want to thoroughly remove ALL TRACES of this application (EVERYTHING that was installed by the installer, or later by the application itself, onto my computer. Simply deleting the app fro my my applications folder will NOT be sufficient to achieve this goal.
3) As the name would suggest (and the step-by-step instructions would collaborate, the CC Cleaner Tool is only for Creative Cloud installation and removal problems (and to the very best of my knowledge, Adobe Digital Editions is certainly NOT a CC program.)
"A" for effort, but not so much on providing a relevant/working Adobe Digital Editions 3 (for Mac OS) uninstall/removal suggestion(s)...STILL looking for a working solution!

How do I adjust display resolution for Mac Mini?

How do I adjust display resolution for Mac Mini? Text does not look crisp. Using Samsung 27 inch monitor with HDMI input

Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Displays. Depending on your version of Mac OS X, it may be set for "Best for Display" in which case it should already be set at the optimum for your monitor, or it may display resolution options in which case you should set it for the native resolution of your display.

What is best basic video editing app for Mac

I'm looking for a video editing application for the mac. I only require something basic, as in being able to crop out unwanted footage and join multiple movie files then export to MP4 format.
I don't need to add audio, titiles or make colour adjustments etc.
Tried iMovie but not a fan.

It sounds like the real need here is for an online collaboration solution, not necessarily building a website from scratch. It would be best to find a service that already does what you want, have a multi-user discussion board that supports multiple groups. Blackboard Learn looks like it integrates grading, evaluations, tests, multimedia, etc., so if the actual scope of your project is like that, maybe Blackboard Learn is the way to go. But is it too much?
If you are merely looking for a space where groups of students can merely discuss privately and not much else, you could conceivably go with something like Facebook Groups, Google+ Communities, etc. These are already coded and tested across multiple platforms and reinforced for security.
You could simply "get a website program" like iWeb or RapidWeaver, but the serious disadvantage of these programs is that you have to build it from nothing. You code the logins, you code the discussion group architecture, you make it work with laptops, tablets, and phones, you code it against hackers and mischievous students. Unless you can handle that (and maybe you did back with iWeb), it might be better to go with a ready-made "groupware" solution that is already tested and robust.

Video/Photo Editing on the Mac Mini (question mark?)

I recently discovered the Mac Mini and immediatly thought "what a great thing, a cheeper version of a mac that i can use to edit things like video and potentialy pictures!"
However, it has been brought to my attention that the mini might not be the most powerful machine and potentialy incapable of handeling video/photo editing due to a less powerful graphics card.
My question pretty much is, can I effectivly edit on a mac mini or is there a way to upgrade the video card to make it more capable?
thanks

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
One of the users in my system bought a mini specifically for video work - and it works extremely well. The on-board graphics don't obstruct effective use of the system for this sort of work at all, and in fact video work is perfectly feasible on systems with vastly inferior graphics cards than the one used in the mini, so that should not be a concern. The same is true of photo editing.
It's certainly true that the mini isn't the most powerful Mac of course, but to put that in context, the current Intel minis are on a general par in processing power to the top of the range G5 powermacs of 3 years ago - many of which are still in use in demanding circumstances. The mini's drawbacks are the lack of internal expansion options and the relatively slow hard drive, but a the former can be largely overcome by adding desired components externally, such as extra hard drives and burners, and the impact of the second can be mitigated to a significant degree by maxing out the RAM. Thus a 1.6 mini with 2Gb RAM will perform rather better than a 1.8 mini with the stock 512Mb.
In practice, the video card is good for all tasks short of 3D gaming - which is just as well since it's embedded on the logic board and thus cannot be replaced!

Best LED TV to be used as monitor for Mac Mini (Late 2012 model)

Hi All,
I am having a mac mini (late 2012 model). Now, I am planning to buy a HD LED Tv from my home. So I would like to know which one will be best suited to be used as a monitor for mac mini so that I can buy a TV which will be used as both TV and Monitor

You'll want something that's 1080p. Best to have one with HDMI input, too. Other than that, let price and warranty be your guide.

Suggest me a usb sound card for mac mini

please suggest me a usb sound card for mac mini (i need 5.1 sound)

The Griffin Technology FireWave will give you the 3 'cables' ("FireWave outputs six channel audio through three 1/8” (3.5mm) stereo mini-jacks: Left/Right, Center/Subwoofer and Right Surround/Left Surround.") connection for surround sound (speakers) audio. Whether or not a particular headphone set is compatible, you might ask Griffin directly about that. If you're playing a DVD with VLC or the Apple DVD Player, you will get surround sound. But, you'd have to find an MP3 with multi-channel audio inside it to play surround sound out of iTunes.

To learn how to defend yourself from the threat of adware read How to install adware.
There will always be threats to your information security associated with using any Internet - connected communications tool:
You can mitigate those threats by following commonsense practices
Delegating that responsibility to software is an ineffective defense
Assuming that any product will protect you from those threats is a hazardous attitude that is likely to result in neglecting point #1 above.
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "clean up", "speed up", "optimize", "boost" or "accelerate" your Mac; to "wash" it, "tune" it, or to make it "shiny". Those claims are absurd.Such products are very aggressively marketed. They are all scams.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources.
Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
"Questionable sources" include but are not limited to spontaneously appearing web pages or popups, download hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or any other site whose revenue is primarily derived from junk product advertisements.
If you need to install software that isn't available from the Mac App Store, obtain it only from legitimate sources authorized by the software's developer.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iCloud, iTunes, or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Beware spontaneous popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > check "Block popup windows".
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but unsolicited popups are commonly used to deceive people into installing unwanted software they would never intentionally install.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever receive a popup window indicating that your Mac is infected with some ick or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
The same goes for a spontaneously appearing dialog insisting that you upgrade your video player right this instant. Such popups are frequently associated with sites that promise to deliver movies or other copyrighted content "for free".
The more insistent it is that you upgrade or install something, the more likely it is to be a scam. Close the window or tab and forget it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. Most of these attempts are pathetic and are easily recognized, but that hasn't stopped prominent public figures from recently succumbing to this age-old scam.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

What's the best duplicates finder application for Mac OS X?

What's the best duplicates finder application for Mac OS X?

Thank you both! I ended up going for DupeGuru because it was free and it worked well. Easy Duplicate Finder baited me with the promise of free download then when the search was over I got the "buy the software" if I wanted to delete more than 10 files.
DupeGuru worked well and so far I have not been asked for money.
This solves my question.

OS disk lost for mac mini

Hi
I have lost my OS disk for mac mini 2007 10.4 and I need to erase the disk before getting rid of it from disk utility
Is there anywhere I can download a copy from?

No download, free or paid.
You can call Apple Customer Support 1-800-767-2775, provide the Serial Number and specifications of the Mac, and for a fee, a replacement set of system discs (if available), can be ordered.
However, the discs will be for the original version of OS, that was pre-installed, when the Mac was manufactured.
