USB 3.0 Hub attached to a Mac Mini does not work

I have already 2 USB 2.0 hubs attached and work perfectly. I want to add a 3.0 USB powered hub but it does not work. The USB is a Iogear 3.0 USB Hub.
Thank you

Does any USB thing show up?
Of not...
USB reset...
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.

My "Mac Help" on my Mac Mini does not work!

I have a Mac Mini, OS X 10.3.9. When I go into Mac Help, nothing happens when I try to ask questions, and I experience other problems when I try to go through Mac Help's library. And sometimes it works as if nothing was wrong. It's just plain sick. Is there any way to reinstall it? Not being able to use the Help at times is problematic to say the least.

Hi carpetcomber,
Welcome to the Discussions!
When it happens, just try deleting its Caches folder, this should clean it:
(quit Help) and delete this folder:
Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpui
If Help still doesn't work, try then deleting those three files:
Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.help.plist
Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpui.plist
Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist
and the Caches again.

A year ago I brought a 1 TB hard drive (My Passport), I have not used it for over 4 months and now when I use the USB cord to connect it to my mac, it does not register the hard drive. Does anyone know why this is happening?

A year ago I brought a 1 TB hard drive (My Passport), I have not used it for over 4 months and now when I use the USB cord to connect it to my mac, it does not register the hard drive. Does anyone know why this is happening?

The beeps could be caused by something as simple as a loose internal wire or connection. If it is under warranty (not sure how long that is, as WD drives range from 1 to 5 years depending on the model's series - I think "my passport" drives are 3 years) you could contact WD and ask them about it.
If it is out of warranty, you could also try opening the case and check the connections - the drive may be fine, and there have been posts on TomsHardware forums of people getting the beeps, opening up the case and the drive is fine, just some wire worked loose.

My new mac mini does not see usb drives, but in hardware info the usb is visible

my new mac mini does not see usb drives, but in hardware info the usb is visible
i'tried several usb flash drives even brand new ones, they are visible onder hardware info but they are not on the desktop nor in the finder.
what is wrong and doe anyone has a solution ?

It does not show up in disk utility, its only visible through systeminformation.
When you plug in the USB flash drive and then refresh systeminformation it becomes visible.
To remove it I shut down the computer because I cannot eject the USB device anywhere.
After starting up again when I have removed the flash drive it has gone from the systeminfo USB list.
By the way my USB mouse and keyboard are working fine, I also changed ports of these and they still keep on working so I don't think the USB ports are defect.
I guess it some kind software problem, and because I'm new to Apple I do not know much about it how to solve this.

ITunes on new Mac Mini does not show shared libraries on network or songs on NAS drive

iTunes on new Mac Mini does not show shared libraries on network or songs on NAS drive
The latest version of iTunes on a 3-month old Mac Mini (8 gig RAM, OS 10.10.2) does not see any of the shared iTunes libraries on a MacBookPro (MBP) (OS 10.9.5) and a 14-month old Mac Mini (OS 10.9.5). And a network shared drive/media server does not appear as well. I have a Gigabite Ethernet G4 and on it, the MPB and the "old" mini I can see the various shared music libraries and NAS, but not on the new Mini.
The little house with a music note inside it that I see on the upper left corner of the iTunes 12.1 window on my MBP does not appear on iTunes 12.1 on the new Mac Mini. I have gone through all the iTunes preferences and can not find where I can turn on this feature. The new Mac Mini is on the local network and I can reach the internet successfully.
I have been using iTunes since its beginning (still have a PowerTower Pro with a working copy of SoundJam), so I am not a newbie, but this has me baffled.

May I add, that I gave full rights to the user at the Mac Mini to access and change data on the server drive for ITunes Media.

MAC Authentication does not work

My MAC Authentication does not work.
I have a ACS 3.0 server set. the MAC address is set in the user name field and in the password field.
I can ping the ACS, I can ping my AP, I can ping my client.
I don't want WEP and I don't want LEAP just MAC. So I set my authentication to "Open with MAC" My client has WEP set to NO WEP and authentication to OPEN
I have the latest drivers for both AP and my 350 Client.
I see that the client is associating and disassociating back and forth non stop. My AP log is full with the following message:

The "always match my default message font" option in the Signature preferences from Mac Mail does not work if e-mail is received in other Mail Software. How can I make it work?

I found this plugin which solved pretty much all of my mail font rendering problems. It is designed for Lion, so don't know whether it will work but thought I would offer it up.

10.4.4 Mac Help does not work

I just upgraded 10.4.3 to 10.4.4. Now Tiger Mac help does not work. Other software help does work, at least those I have checked like Word, Safari, and a few others I have checked. But in the Finder going to help in the Menu bar does brings up the help window, but try to click a link like What's new in Tiger or typing a query into the search window produces nothing. All the software seems to be working fine, at least what I have checked. I have redownloaded and re-installed making sure virus software is off to no avail.
Any help would be appreciated.

I tried the steps mentioned before, and thought I would give them one more try. Initially, I had success in that the Help Viewer opened to the default Mac Help view, and when I typed in a find term, lo & behold a list of results appeared! Alas, my visions of success vanished when I clicked on one of the results, then View.....nothing happened!
I returned to the main menu, and found none of the links would work, and neither would the search function!
It appears a link may work the first time, but none after that.
I also noticed that (repeating the Cache & Preference removal steps) that they repopulated with the files when Mac Help was initiated, and, as before, would allow one link acivation to occur, but none after.
I suspect there may be a conflict with some other applications Help feature, but made sure to activate ONLY the Mac Help with no other Application having been run after restart. The only other possiblity is that some toolbar non-Mac OS X help apps like Magic Menu, Quicken, & iPod conflict, but these are all I have!
If any one having this Help Viewer problem has similar installations, or knows of any conflicts with these; or, how I can temporarily disable/remove the associated help without uninstalling them, please post a reply.

My mac mini does not boot, after backing the enire system onto an external drive with Carbon Copy Clone

My Mac Mini does not boot, after backing the enire system onto an external drive with Carbon Copy Clone. I had switched the start-up disk back to the original of course. Now all I see is the Apple logo. What should I do? Thanks in advance.

Try disconnecting any external devices, especially hard drives
and try rebooting.
If that doesn't help, then :
If you are running Lion, boot to the Recovery HD and run a
Repair Disk on the OSX partition.
If Snow Leopard, boot to the installl DVD and run Repair Disk.
Also, you may want to bookmark this:

Help - Mac Mini does not boot after re-install of OS X

Hi,
I have a Mac Book Pro and Mac Mini. I needed to reinstall my Mac Mini but lost the install disks. The install disks of the Macbook do not work (machine specific). So what I did was boot the Mac Mini in firewire target mode and installed OS X to it from the Macbook. Worked ok. Except for one thing: The Mac mini does not boot the fresh OS X installation. I get a blinking folder icon with a question mark on top of it.
I booted from the Mac OS X install disk, repaired disk permissions etc. and tried to use the "Startup Disk" utility to select the hard drive as a boot device. But that utility does not offer me to select the hard disk, it doesn't even show up (while DiskUtility can perfectly see it).
Any hints for me? I am pretty much stuck right now.
Thanks

Well, see, the fact that it wouldn't let you boot from the MacBook install disks should have been your first clue to not try to do it. There's a reason it wouldn't let you. The MacBook install disks contain a version of the OS specific to the MacBook, in order to prevent people doing what you just tried to do (ie, installing the same copy of the OS on multiple machines).
If you don't have the Mac Mini system disks any more, you'll have to go buy a copy of OS X. You could also ask for help from an Apple Store, if there's one in your area, but I honestly don't know if they would give you new disks. I would think they should (for a small fee), since Mac Mini system disks would be useless to anyone who didn't already own a Mac Mini, but you never know.

Mac Mini Graphics Not Working Properly

I have two Mac Minis (a July 2009 model and a June 2010 model) that have recently began having video problems.
The problem started on my newer machine which has two Samsung monitors attached, sometime after the last Snow Leopard update.
Last week, the second, older machine which is connected to only a Panasonic LCD HDTV, began having the same issue.
The problem is that the actual screen resolution being run does not match the settings in the System Preferences. It looks like the graphics controller is actually running at 640x480 or 800x600 or something where everything is big but the OS (Snow Leopard or Lion) still thinks it is running at 720p or some other high resolution. So the OS reports that everything is fine even though it is very obvious, things are not OK.
When I move the mouse to the side the desktop scrolls around on the screen. it is like having a window into my desktop.
Changing the screen resolution in Hardware-Displays does not work nor does the detect display button. On the TV for instance, the Displays panel reports 720p even though it is clear that what is on the screen is nowhere near 720p. It makes videos on the TV look really bad and it makes it hard to navigate around the desktop. I can't even fit the entire browser into the sceen.
I had hoped that upgrading to Lion on the machine hooked to the TV would fix the problem, but It did not. Lion displays the same problem. I have not tried putting Lion on the newer Mac Mini yet.
I did find a workaround for the newer one with the Samsung displays – by using fast user switching, sometimes the proper graphics resolution will come up right on the second or third try/user. And if I do get it working properly and the monitor goes to sleep, it will screw the resolution up again when it wakes up, even if it was working properly before. I have temporarily turned off sleep but this is not a good option for me.
Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong or how I could fix it?
Thanks!
Patrick T.

Most of the default Mac Apps does not work after Mavericks Upgrade

Hi, I did everything, but nothing has brought me out of this misery .
I Updated Maverick just 2 days after its release. Had no problems, other then slow Finder. I restarted my iMac last week, and got caught with these issues, known to me, not sure what all bugs are there.
All these apps does not work: App Store, TextEdit, Preview, Terminal, iBooks, Maps, Calendar, Contacts, Mail, etc
I do not know how to do a clean install, as I had upgraded from Snow Leopord to Mountain Lion and to Maverick using App Store, which does not open at all.
Hoping to get some response soon from Apple support team to help me.
