It won't be required, you can't change the CPU in your Mac Mini.

  • I have a mac mini mid 2011, this device have; 2,3GHz and 2 Gb Memmory.I want to upgrade the memory and i need the list of supported memory modules

    i have a mac mini mid 2011, this device have; 2,3GHz and 2 Gb Memmory.I want to upgrade the memory and i need the list of supported memory modules. i am from turkey.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The Mid 2011 Mac mini supports 8 GB of memory officially, but you can install up to 16 GB of RAM, so you can use 2, 4 and 8 GB modules. You can buy more RAM from OWC or Crucial.
    If you are looking for memory at a local shop, make sure you buy 1333 MHz DDR3 memory. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4432?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • 3 displays on Mac Mini (2009)

    I know this has been discussed and there is stuff out there on this, but I need clarification.
    I have a Mac Mini (2009) and currently have separate 24" dell monitors attached for the dual display. I want to add a third monitor, also 24" with same resolution (1900x1200).
    what is the best way to do this to extend the desktop across the 3 monitors, rather than having a mirror on one? Will a DVI splitter only give me mirrored images on 2 of the 3 monitors? Is there a special adapter or cable I can use to get two out of one of the ports on the Mini and one on the other to come up with the 3 displays and extended desktop?
    Thank you in advance for any help you can provide on this.

    If you don't need high performance on the third monitor, then a usb adapter might be an economical way to go:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/VIDU2DVIA/
    This would give you 3 displays and an extended desktop, AFAIK.
    The specs (Supports up to 2048 x 1152) suggest you'd come up just shy of 1920x1200. I suggest contacting macsales (Other World Computing) as they have good tech support.
    A splitter would only mirror the displays shared on the splitter.

  • Mac-mini 2009 airdrop not compatible in Lion??

    Airdrop doesn´t work in Lion with Mac mini 2009 model.
    Anyone thiks ther will be a firmware update or anything similar to fix this problem??

    From the little bit of research I have done on this subject, AirDrop compatibility comes down to specific versions of the wifi chipset  (Atheros / Broadcom) in the computer needing to support simultaneous networking via infrastructure mode (most common) and ad-hoc.
    On those that do not support it, as it is a chipset hardware limitation, there will be no firmware update fix.
    Without some type of a software fall back in AirDrop (think Bonjour sharing on the local network) a substantial number of recent systems are missing out on AirDrop.
    I am still puzzled why Apple would use the compatible chipsets in some of their notebook systems as far back as 2008 and leave them out for another 2 generations on other systems like the mac mini and macbook air (mid-late 2010). It must have been some engineering and space limitation.
    Copied from Apple here, for discussion clarity for other readers:
    AirDrop supports the following Mac models:
        MacBook Pro (Late 2008 or newer)
        MacBook Air (Late 2010 or newer)
        MacBook (Late 2008 or newer)
        iMac (Early 2009 or newer)
        Mac mini (Mid 2010 or newer)
        Mac Pro (Early 2009 with AirPort Extreme card, or Mid 2010)
    It does not look like my spring 2010 Mac mini is supported.

  • Should I upgrade to OS 10.10 Yosemite from 10.85 on a Mac Mini 2009 (2.53Mhz 2duo, 4M 500HD) ?

    Hi ... I asked this question a few months back ... and I received a few "yes you should" answers but I felt there was not much evidence to support recommendation ... but I am hoping that more people have had a chance to experience the OS on a low powered machine.  I have a Mac mini 2009 (2.53Mhz , 500 hard drive and 4 gig memory).  The mini is currently very happy with 10.8.5 (but I have yet to transfer all my media over from my Mini 1.6Mhz running 10.6) .
    So will I see a performance drop if I install the free 10.10 upgrade ?
    Many thanks

    roaringapps.com can help show what other users have found to work on various OS X releases.
    I would recommend installing to a fast external disk as a test if you are so concerned. Also keep a backup when/ if you upgrade & then you have little to lose.
    Just be aware that iCloud can get updated for iCloud drive, which will lock older OS's out of that feature, so opt out if you are not sure.

  • Windows 7 on Mac Mini 2009

    Hi
    I did install Win 7 64 usisng bootcamp app on my SL installation.
    Win 7 works fine, but the Boot Camp driver from my SL DVD wont install. It quits with an requester saying:
    'boot camp x64 is unsuported on this computer model'
    I checked sveral times now the support and readmes. The Mac Mini 2009 is supported. How can I install the 3.0 driver from my SL DVD?
    Message was edited by: Helge Schwarz

    quick answer:
    When you are in Windows
    create folder ("Apple Boot Camp Drivers" for instance)
    copy the contents off the OS X DVD \Bootcamp
    navigate to \Apple\Drivers\Bootcamp64
    Instead of just Open or run,
    control + click and choose "troubleshoot compatibility"
    chalk it up to weak support for Windows on Mac etc
    PS: the error message? made it title, and it gets asked regularly.

  • Expanding the Mac Mini (2009) over due?

    I, and I guess many more, need to discuss the expansion of the current Mac Mini (2009). By it's very design the MM depends on expansion.
    Currently discussion of the 2009 MM expansion issues are taking place in the 'prior to 2009 MM expansion' sub-forum.
    I feel the introduction of a dedicated sub-forum for this is particularly important given the differences between the current and previous models, and the introduction of the server version.
    Please will someone consider this request?

  • Can I instal the adobe creative suite in my Mac mini 2009?

    I want to instal PhotoShop and Illustrator cc 2014 on my Mac mini 2009 version and the system requirement in PhotoShop is
    Multicore Intel processor with 64-bit support
    1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with 16-bit color and 512 MB of VRAM (1 GB recommended)**
    OpenGL 2.0–capable system
    I don't know where to check the specification even go to the System Information. Can anyone help? Thanks!

    The early 2009 Mini has
    Nvidia GeForce 9400M using 128 MB or 256 MB of DDR3 SDRAM
    The late 2009 MIni
    Nvidia GeForce 9400M using 256 MB of DDR3 SDRAM
    Thus, if it does even install it will be slow.

  • Mac Mini 2009 - HDD instead of Optical Drive

    Hi,
    I have a Mac Mini 2009 (MC239LL/A). I want to remove the optical drive and replace it with a second hard drive. Basically, build the server model. From the parts diagram it seems like the HDD carrier and Interconnect Board would be the two things I need. The only other parts that are different are the IR Board / Cable and Bottom Housing (by part numbers). I know you can just buy the Optibay, but I'd rather do things the proper way. If I only have to replace the two parts first mentioned it will still be less than a used server model. Has anyone attempted this?

    Thanks, I am well aware of the kit from OWC.
    I confirmed the bottom housing doesn't matter (probably different by part number due to the different MC*** imprint). All that's left is the IR Board / Cable which is clearly different.
    Non-server version:
    http://www.applecomponents.com/media/parts/922-8805.gif
    Server version:
    http://www.applecomponents.com/media/parts/922-9113.gif
    If I can determine that the difference there doesn't matter, then it's just the IC Board & HDD Carrier, which is $58 total done the "right" way IMO versus the $50 for the OWC kit. At that point, with the correct IC Board it would Plug n Play with no extra wires and as an added bonus it would mount clean with HDD carrier.

  • Mac mini (2009) does not work for s-video input on my  tv

    Hi,

  • I want to use icloud on my macbook and cant because I am using OSX10.6.8 - I want to upgrade this but I cant upgrade to mountain lion as my mac does not support this - cannot find a way to go to Version 10.7.4 which i understand supports icloud - help

    If you purchased Lion for your iMac, just log into the Mac App Store from your MacBook using the Apple ID under which you purchased Lion and go to the Purchases page. You will be able to download and install Lion there. 
    searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7
    The only place you get get Lion is from the Mac App Store. If you found some other site, that was an illegal copy and almost certainly tied to someone else's Apple ID and hence unusable by you. If the link was just to the Mac App Store, see above.
    As to the problem with synchronization to iCloud, that's not a 10.6 question, so I'd suggest you take up that specific issue in either the Lion or iCloud forums, providing full details, and someone there can probably help you sort things out.
    Regards.

  • After changing my mac mini 2009 with a mac mini late 2012, and using Time machine for the reinstallation, Lightroom is operational but Photoshop elements is said to have a license no more valid (code error 150:30). I tried all solution I found to no avail

    After changing my computer from a mac mini 2009 to a late 2012 version, all reloaded with Time machine, Lightroom works fine but Photoshop elements refuses to start (error code 150:30; "license no more valid"...). No solution found on the internet works. Any advice ? possibility to reload the application (I have kept the number of license etc.) ? Thanks in advance to anyone who could help.

    Alain Picard this error often occurs due to incorrect file permissions or corruption of licensing data during the Time Machine restore.  What version of Photoshop Elements were you using?  I would recommend that you remove and reinstall it using the uninstaller located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder.

  • Can not get Samsung 22" LED TV to work with Mac Mini (2009), 'No Signal' message. any suggestions?

    I've just purchased a Samsung 5000series 22" LED TV to use with my Mac Mini (2009). I'm connecting using VGA with VGA adapter to MacMini. The TV is reading an error message saying there's no signal. Already tried with a 32" LG and it worked, as well as with a Dell moniter but can't seem to get this Samsung to work... PLEASE HELP!!

    That is not totally true. Instead of using an analog VGA connection, try using a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter and HDMI cable with that Samsung Monitor.

  • Mac Mini 2009 SL 6.0.1 won't sleep with Wake on Demand turned on...

    I'm having an issue where my Mac Mini 2009 won't go to sleep at all when I have Wake on Demand turned on. I have been manually making it go to sleep and then loath and behold its back on a few minutes later. I know it's supposed to turn on once every two hours or so, but my Mini appears to not be sleeping at all after it turns back on. I thought this feature was supposed to save me electricity and money, not the opposite. I also have the Mac to go to asleep after 5 minutes. It's not doing that either. I haven't checked the logs to see what's going on. Any ideas?

    Nope. I did change a few settings and the mac now manages to sleep. However, it wakes a few minutes later and then eventually goes back to sleep. This process cycles.
    I found some good info on this site...
    http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-10330473-263.html?tag=mncol
    I basically just went into the terminal and with root privileges did a "pmset -a ttyskeepawake 0" which turns off the possibility of a remote login event.
    Because my initial error message also was saying something about my airport I assumed it might be worth turning on AirPort on the Mini and forcing it not to make any connections to my AirPort Extreme station. At this point, I have turned off AirPort to see what it does with just the ttyskeepawake option turned off.
    I might try a PMU reset to see if that has any effect.
    Another thing that comes to mind is I have the Mac Mini hooked up to a Denon AV Receiver and then to an HDTV via a mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. Perhaps, the Denon is waking it up?
