  • What is the oldest (Cheapest) Mac Mini you would use as iTunes server?

    I want a Mac Mini to serve my iTunes media(music and 1080p videos) that's the extent of it. The Mini would connect to my flat screen and my audio reciever. I'd like to use an older Mini for cost savings. I've tried this Mac Mini...it was fine for 480p and 720p, but the 1080p was slow in loading:
    Model: A1103
    Hard Drive Capacity: 80 GB
    Processor Type: PowerPC G4
    Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5, Leopard
    Processor Speed: 1.5GHZ
    Bundled Items: Apple Keyboard and Apple Mouse
    Memory: 1024 upgraded from 512

    Yeah, though a nice little Mac, a G4 isn't up to 1080p, rough estimating that you need 4 times the power & from rough GeekBench scores...

  • What is the maximum resolution Mac mini can support?

    does it support 4k display?
    Intel HD Graphics 4000

    External Resolution
    Up to 2560 by 1600 (Thunderbolt) or 1920 by 1200 (HDMI), so, no, it does not support 4k displays.

  • What is the oldest iMac that can run 10.10.2?

    People on older Macs are reporting very poor experiences with Yosemite. I have been recommending a minimum of 8 GB RAM and an SSD. If your machine is too old to support that, I strongly urge caution.

  • HDMI  confusion on latest entry model Mac Mini?

    I have just been looking at the Apple Store's spec sheet for the entry model Mac mini and have this query:-
    It has an HDMI socket but the blurb only mentions that it can be used for multi-channel audio.
    For me, the whole point of HDMI is that it can transport VIDEO to something like an attached HDTV.
    Can it also work with video and if so, why have they omitted to list that in the spec sheet?

    Thanks, but I am probably not buying a Mini.
    I usually go for iMacs but have noticed that Minis are more powerful than I thought .  .  .  .  .  and the base model is only a third the cost of  the new 27" iMac  .  .   . .  . though it does come without the display etc. which I would need, together with the more advanced processor,video card, hard drive, RAM, keyboard, mouse etc. etc. for video editing.
    Nevertheless it is quite tempting  .  .  .  maybe I'll get both in a moment of madness. 
    P.S.  I know I could use my 40" Sony HDTV as a display but unfortunately even the latest TVs are overscanned, resulting in the edges of the computer desktop being cutoff.

  • What years apple cinema display can I connect to the new 2012 mac mini?

    I have a 23" Apple Cinema Display that I purchased in 2007. I currently have it connected to m7 2009 Mac Mini. Can I use it with the new 2012 Mac Mini? I am running the latest OS on my 2009 Mac Mini.  I want to upgrade my Mac Mini for more storage a nd the faster processor.

    Yes.  You can connect it to the Mac Mini's HDMI port with the HDMI to DVI adapter that comes with the new Mac Mini, or you can connect it to the Thunderbolt port with a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapter.

  • HT201364 What is the change betwen mac book late 2006 and mid 2007 ?

    What is the change betwen mac book late 2006 and mid 2007 that couses the OS X Mavericks not to run on it?

    Neither the 2006 or 2007 MacBooks will run Mavericks, nor will the white plastic cased 2008 models. The oldest MacBook that will run Mavericks is the Aluminum case Late 2008 one.
    Looking at the specs, I think that is because prior to the aluminum 2008 model, all MacBooks used less powerful Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) graphics processors with (at most) 160 MB of available video memory. AFAIK, neither Intel nor Apple ever released 64 bit drivers for these GMA graphics processors, so when OS X dropped support for booting into 32 bit mode in Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8) that meant the newest OS these MacBooks could support was Leopard (OS X 10.7), the last version to support 32 bit mode.
    It is also likely that the GMA's, with their limited memory & support for parallel processing, can't effectively support technologies like Grand Central Dispatch that system services in the newer OS versions increasingly rely on to speed up more than graphics rendering.
    So, even if one could find a 64 bit driver for the GMA's, the system probably would be too slow at too many things to be practical. (Personally, I have a while 2008 MacBook, & I think the "best fit" OS for it is Snow Leopard. As far as I'm concerned, Lion is basically a beta version of Mountain Lion with too many rough edges & limited user choice to run on mine.)

  • Is it possible to model mac-mini M815 install a second hard drive?

    Hi all!
    Tell me whether, you can install a second hard drive, such as SSD or plain and you need to do?

    Standard Hard Drive:
    500 GB (5400 RPM)
