Why buy a mini when it seems not to be upgradeable to wireless-n?

Does anyone know why Apple would make most of the dual core computers upgradeable to wireless-n for the laughable £1.25 but not either of the minis? There does not seem to be a wireless-n usb network adapter for Apple products so you could end up paying a lot of money for a product which might be regarded as already obsolete.

the answer is that the MacMini doesn' t have the same Airport Card than the newer Intel Core2 Duo. these airport cards doesn' t support 802.11n yet.
the g-standard can not be obsolete for a long time yet because the industriy is still not agree for the same 802.11n standard... so it still might take a while
hope that helps a bit

  • Why start iCloud drive when Yosemite is not ready? Once accidental start iCloud drive, no downgrade option?

    When IOS8 is release there is a simple switch to start iCloud Drive.  It is a nightmare.  My iWork field can no longer be sync with my Mac and Mac Air.
    There is no downgrade method to resume the usual iCloud support.  Yosemite is not ready now.
    There should be a warning for anyone who may not know the link between iCloud drive and Yosemite.
    Why start iCloud drive when Yosemite is not ready for download?

    Give Apple feedback on this at http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Unfortunately the iOS 8 release was made fully functional even though some of the functions are not useable at this time.  That should have been clearer so the user knew not to activate a function that would not work fully.

  • Satellite 1400 enters stand by after 30 mins when it's not in use

    Hey all.
    I have just installed a 256Mb RAM module, so I now have 384Mb RAM. Since this has been installed, the computer enters stand by mode after about 30 mins when it is not in use. I have tried to change to power management settings, but when I click on power management in the Toshiba console, nothing happens! Likewise when I use the power management from the control panel (in windows XP), it tells me to use the Toshiba console! Help! How do I change the time before the computer enters stand by mode??
    Cheers

    Hi
    First of all if the Toshiba power saver is installed on the notebook so the windows power options doesnt work.
    All power settings should be changed or set in the power saver.
    You have to choose the power saver mode and click details
    There you should see 3 tabs.
    Check the second tab Power saver there you can change some settings, also the stand by time. After this procedure you have to apply the changing.
    Check also the 3rd tab System Power mode

  • My brand new iPhone 6 Plus showing call time 2 hrs 41 mins when I did not even use the phone yet! Did I just purchased a used phone?

    Hi,
    Can anyone advise why my brand new iPhone 6 Plus showing Lifetime 2 hrs 41 mins under Settings/Call Time? I did not even use the phone to make call yet!
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    SC.

    Hi
    I meant when they test a percentage of devices as part of quality control - to make sure that a particular batch of phones is defect free and market ready
    The Call time is apparently the total time one spends talking on the phone between total resets and wipes

  • Why does Mail open when it is not my default email client?

    I prefer Thunderbird as my mail client and it is set to be my default.  However, if I click to send a picture by email, not only does it open up in the TB mail message, OSX Mail also opens along with an empty draft mail message.  How do I stop this?  I have turned off Mail. 

    Thanks, John.  That is how I already set TB as my default client.  I thought I had solved the issue of OSX Mail opening in tandem, but in fact it still does it.  Very odd.

  • Why Buy Apple TV When IPOD can connect to TV In DVD Quality

    Ive been a PC guy my whole life but now Im looking into Apple products more so than ever. I bought some AV Cables for my ipod and connected to my TV and was amazed by the picture quality. My question is - What does Apple TV offer thats worth paying $250 more rather than connecting an ipod to a TV?

    WHATY IF I dont think paying $250 more for those relativley small comforts is economical. And I have 10 movies and 5-6 TV shows. (For me) Thats far more than enough LOL. And I dont mind getting up walking 8 steps and plugging in 1 cable. This is the one thing about Apple I havent liked - pay a few hundered dollars more for very small convienences. And it may not be DVD quality but in my oppinion its 95% close enough lol.

    Apple "veriifes" your Apple ID account information everytime you download media whether free or paid thus the authorization hold. Your account will be credited the amount of the holds usually within 24 to 48 hours.

    You're welcome.
    Voicemail is left at your carrier's server. That will continue to work unless you report your iPhone as lost or stolen with your carrier.
    You may never find it again and you can't if the iPhone remains offline or out of service which means the iPhone is powered off or doesn't have cellular reception.

    Hi Joshua,
    I see that your Acrobat Standard subscription order is still pending. But you should be able to download your software. What happens when you log in to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com/acrobat? If you can't get it from that page, you can download it directly from Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X - Adobe.
    Once your subscription order processes, you'll be able to log in and use Acrobat.

  • HT1933 why am i getting charges on my credit card when iu am not buying anything?

    why am i getting charges on my credit card when i am not buying anything?

    First, if you're using an iOS device, make sure that you did not inadvertently make an in-app purchase. Many apps, particularly games, are free for the base game but charge for additional features such as levels, "coins" and other such add-ons. Check your Purchase History to see if that reminds you as to what you might have purchased:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
    If you find that these were in-app purchases, to prevent this from happening again, turn off "In App purchases" in the Restrictions settings on your device. For more information, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213
    As to a refund, that's not automatic since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
    They're usually pretty lenient in the case of inadvertent purchases, but there are no guarantees.
    If the charges are not in-app purchases that you made and forgot but the charges do appear in your Purchase History, contact the iTunes Store and let them know. You should also immediately change your password for your Apple ID. If the charges don't appear in your Purchase History, they were probably fake charges made directly to your credit card, and your card issuer will need to handle those.
    Regards.

  • When I plug in my ipod I into my computer I see songs that are not mine and it seems that my ipod is not being recognized.

    When I plug my ipod into my computer and click on itunes, I get three songs listed in a library that is not mine. It does not seem to recognize my ipod.

    Pete I was having a similure problem with my 5th Gen. I cut my losses and stress and restored my iPod to factory settings. It wiped the device clean, but with all my music in iTunes it put it all back on in a matter of 5 minutes. Yes you may loose some music, but oh well at least your device is working.

  • 4S Usage is Wrong and Seems High. Why is it 'using' when I'm asleep?

    I went to bed last night and lost 24% in ~8 hrs. That seems wrong.
    The usage, though, sticks out in a weird way.
    Went to bed: Battery 100%, Usage 36mins, StandBy 59 mins
    Woke up: Battery 76%, Usage 5hrs 47mins, StandBy 9hrs 37mins
    What was going on for 5hrs when I was asleep?
    All apps were closed.
    Here's what I have on:
    Notifications: Weather, Phone, Messages, Reminders, Calendar, Facebook, Mail, GMail
    Location Services: Camera, Safari, Siri, Weather, Find Iphone
    Mail: Push (Yahoo, Exchange for GMail)
    Bluetooth is off, Wifi is on and I was connected
    iCloud & Wifi Sync are On, but last Sync was when I charged before I went to bed.
    I did the  "settings reset fix" (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3484755?start=0&tstart=0) three days ago.
    (Reset All Settings, Update the settings, Drain Battery and Recharge).
    The first day it seemed ok, but the usage is still abnormally high.
    For instance, I was at: Battery 43%, Usage: 12hrs 24mins, StandBy 18hrs 39 mins
    2 hours letter: Battery 30%, Usage: 13hrs 37mins, StandBy 20hrs 40mins
    My phone was sitting on my desk at work doing nothing for those 2 hrs, but according to this it was "In Use" for over half that.
    What is going on here? Why is there a lot of "Usage" when I'm not using the phone.
    Thanks!
    AJ

    Another update. I think I found my "during sleep usage & battery drain" issue.
    I turned on Location Services like David has on. I left "Find my iPhone On", but went to "System Services" at the bottom of Location Services.
    I turned off everything except Traffic and Cell Network Search. And my battery is great, as is the usage.
    I'm guessing "Diagnostics & Usage" is the culprit.
    Last Night 11:58pm
    Battery 92%, Usage 26mins, StandBy 2hrs 31mins
    This Morning 8:15am
    Battery 86%, Usage 38mins, StandBy 10hrs 48mins
    So 6% over 8 hrs, which is my best so far. Yay!
    Email is on Push, Notifications are on (weather, phone, messages, calendar, mail, reminders).
    Location Services is on (camera, maps, weather)
