Will my 30" apple display work on a new mac mini

I want to upgrade to an new mac mini and from my Powermac G5.. but I ave a 30" apple cinima.
Will it work on the new mac mini?
Thanks
Martin

Hi Martin, the Mini only has Thuberbolt for Displays...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thunderbolt_(interface)
Though that article says...
This makes the system backward compatible with existing DisplayPort hardware upstream of the driver. A single Thunderbolt port supports hubs as well as a daisy chain of up to seven Thunderbolt devices; up to two of these devices may be high-resolution displays using DisplayPort.[6] Existing Mini DisplayPort adapters for DVI, dual-link DVI, HDMI, and VGA are compatible with Thunderbolt, allowing backwards compatibility and no loss of functionality compared to Mini Displayport.
I cant find any!

  • Will a external Apple iSight work with the latest Mac Mini?

    with a firewire 400-800 if it will what software do i need to take pictures and videos.
    Many Thanks

    Will a external apple isight work with the latest mac mini.
    Yes (if the external iSight works.)
    External iSights are great webcams, but they are getting old (as consumer electronics go) and some have had pretty rough treatment. You can test yours using the suggestions from this page:
      http://www.ralphjohns.co.uk/EZJim/EZJimpage4.html
    I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get your external iSight working with your mini.
    If you do not already have an external iSight and are considering buying one now,
    a new webcam (with warranty) may be a better choice.
    Many available alternatives are listed here: http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com/

    Use one of the following ways to connect your FW400 external iSight to a FW800 Mac port:
    • To use the FW400 6pin-6pin cable that comes with iSight, you can use a 6pin-9pin adapter
      like one of these:

    • Some report that this low-priced alternative cable works:
      http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812189097
    I suggest you disconnect other Firewire devices until you get external iSight working with your mini. Once iSight works when it is the only FW connected device, you can try connecting other Firewire devices to determine whehter you can use any of them without conflict.
    ... if it will what software do i need to take pictures and videos.
    With your 10.6.3 mini, you can use QuickTime X, iChat, Photo Booth, iMovie, and some of the other apps that are installed with OS X. Your Mac's Help for each of these apps can tell you how to use them with iSight (or other connected cameras.)
    Some more apps you can use are shown in this list:

    The web links for each app gives details on what functions is offers with your webcam.

  • Will any of my old displays work with the new Mac Mini

    I am thinking of getting a new Mac Mini.     What I need to know is if any of the monitor/displays I have here can bem used.
    I have two old video monitors I used to used with my old  mac mini (Samsung Symc Master 770 and old little Princeton  - VL158) , a
    n early 2006 iMac 20" (which I don't think I could use as a monitor from what I read) and an little Samsung TV with USB and HDMI connectors.,
    Can I use any of these? 
    Need new connector cords?   Mini-DVI to VGA adapter?
    Thanks

    I am a writer though  and a photographer (strictly point and shoot) for a couple of orgs.  I just don't want o run out of space.  And I hate!! slow response time.  
    Is the i5 adequate as well?
    Glad to have found an Apple guru so quickly.  May very well buc you more in the future.

  • Will my LED 27 Cinema Display work with the new Mac Pro?

    Will my LED 27 Cinema Display work with the new Mac Pro?

    Mini DisplayPort (like 27" LED Cinema Display) is a direct subset of ThunderBolt (like Mac pro late 2013). It plugs right in and the display portion "just works", no adapters required.

  • Will my 5 year old lg flatron monitor 1730S work with a new mac mini ? thank you.

    Will my 5 year old ( hardly used ) LG flatron monitor 1730S work with a new Mac Mini ? Thank You. Robert.

    You don't say what sort of Inputs it has available, but if VGA, DVI or HDMI then yes, you might need to buy an adapter of some type though ...

  • Spotlight is not working on brand new Mac mini

    Hi,
    I got an issue with two brand new Mac minis running 10.7.3 (11D50d):
    Spotlight is not working. I'm only getting the Wikipedia-Search.
    Here's what I did:
    Installation:
    - took the stock Minis and set up two users, admin and user (limited account)
    - updatet the System
    - installed manually: Adobe Reader X, Office 2011, Firefox 12, Flip4Mac, Perian, Cyberduck, Google Earth 6.2 (the installer without the updater), VLC 2
    - installed using AppStore: CalendarBar, TextWrangler, Unarchiever
    - copied a few documents (Word and Excel files) from a PC to the Desktop
    Troubleshooting:
    - tried to restart Spotlight by adding the entire harddrive to privacy using »Spotlight« within the System Preferences
    - that threw an error "no priviliges"
    - started the System from the recovery system (on an USB-thumbdrive) and repaired permissions
    - that did not help
    - tried to restart Spotlight through the Terminal, running the command: sudo mdutil -E /
    - that command returned: No index.
    - the tried: sudo mdutil -i on /
    - returned: Error: unable to perform operation.  (-400) No index.
    - went the hard way
    - unloaded the daemon: sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
    - erased the Spotlight folder: sudo rm -fr .Spotlight-V100/
    - loaded the daemon: sudo launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.metadata.mds.plist
    That made everything work fine until I did a restart of the System. After the mini restarted I was back at square one...
    Does anyone have an idea how to fix this issue?
    Apple support suggested to reinstall the system. Something I can't do right now, as people need to work on those computers and cannot take a tow hour break...

    Hi Ray Land,
    We can help narrow down the cause.  What operating system are you using on your new Mac Mini? 
    If you are running the Mountain Lion OS, you can download the latest driver here.  An important note is that the current print queue must be deleted before installing the new driver.  This will ensure proper communication.
    If this doesn't work or you need further assistance, please contact us here.

  • I can´t get @ to work at my new Mac mini

    Hi
    I just bought and installed everything on my new Mac Mini 2012 from my old iMac and I chose Swedish as my language.
    My OS is Mavericks
    I also connected my apple keyboard and everything works OK.
    Except that when I try to write a e-mail.
    I can´t write @ instead a get "TM" from holding down the alt-key and the other key (nr 2 key)
    The keyboard works perfect with my old iMac.
    Does anybody have a clue what I should do to get @ to work.
    Maybe a Swede will know what happened ?
    Any help would be much appreciated
    Cheers
    Hans
    Ps. This was not written from my Mac mini  :-)

    You need go to system prefs/keyboard/input sources and use the plus and add buttons to activate the Swedish Pro keyboard and then select that one in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen.  Apple keyboards are printed with the Swedish Pro layout  (and not the "Swedish" one).

  • Occasional display glitches on a new Mac Mini

    I'm running a new Mac Mini with a Samsung S27A850D 2560x1440 monitor on the DisplayPort and a 1080p panel on the HDMI, and I'm wondering whether the issues I'm having are just minor OS glitches or actually something more serious. I haven't had any crashes or program issues, but sometimes when I wake the machine it seems to have problems with display settings - the resolution on the main monitor changed a couple of times, my windows were rearranged once, the Finder windows didn't remember the size I'd set, and this morning my wallpaper disappeared (although it was still selected in settings). Nothing critical, but all annoying.
    Generally when the display does wake up, it seems like the Mac is reconfiguring it - a flash of desktop, followed by a pale blue screen for a second or two, then back to desktop. Any suggestions?

  • Will my hp Laserjet 1012 printer work with my new Mac Mini (OS 10.7, Lion)?

    I finally have to upgrade from my Mac Mini OS 10.4.11 to a Mac Mini OX 10.7, and wonder if I have to buy all new peripherals, too.
    Here's what I have:
    HP Laserjet 1012 black and white printer
    Proview 17-inch display, PL913s
    Epson Perfection 4490 flatbed scanner. (I scan a lot of manuscript pages and must have a scanner with an adjustable top)
    Wired keyboard with numeric keypad
    Wired mouse
    Yes, I know they're old, but they work fine!
    Thank you!

    Hello Fiona6,
    I use iMac (Snow Lep) and 2011 Mini (Lion) and from both systems my results are:
    Wired keyboard & mouse - work ok, I don't like or use wireless types.
    My LaserJet 1010 - works ok (Your 1012 should also work, same series of printer).
    If your display works ok now, cannot see why it would not work. My mini works with various vga and DVI displays I have at various times attached to it.
    Don't know about your scanner though, with my all in one printer/scanner I have had to use OS X Image Capture program to scan. Might be worth a look at Epson's site to check on any software updates.
    Roy.
    Edit: Regarding display if you are getting a new mini you will need a new display adapter, minidisplayport to vga or dvi, assuming your display is one of these. This can be plugged into the Thunderbolt port on the new Macs.
