By the end of 2012 (27 in.) (i5) iMac - guard stop!
By the end of 2012 (27 in.) (i5) iMac - guard stop!
For the last three weeks, I experience my iMac closing for no apparent reason.
First of all I have if it were simply a fuse I replaced.
The problem became more occurrent last week.
I have same low leveled for Mountain Lion to see if maybe it was the operating system or software related, but it's the same thing.
I have since reinstalled El Capitan of a clean install, and the problem still persists.
- I removed the cable behind the screen to reset the SMC (which helps only temporary, but finally knocks again)
- I tried a new installation of the operating system
- I spent around sick Ram
- I have reset the PRAM
There's time were the computer remains on most long and times when it will start only insofar as the login screen and then stop.
Please could someone help me shed light on this very frustrating issue... And the thing is, this computer is very rarely used since the purchase.
See you soon!

A new installation should take software out of the picture. You run Apple Hardware Test

It is not very reliable to find errors, but if it reports an error, it may be useful.

Towards the end of 2015 memory 27-inch iMac
Just got my iMac to 3.3 GHz 27 inch end of 2015 and looked at the memory already installed. A bar of 4 GB of ram is installed in Bank 0 and Bank 1 is the other 4 GB of ram. Just put two 8 GB of ram, 4 GB and 8 GB is in Bank 0, and the other 12 GB are in Bank 1. Is this correct? I thought that the ram was supposed to be the same size and type in each bank memory, for example 2 x 4 GB in Bank 0 and 2 x 8 GB to Bank 1. The iMac doesn't seem to object and it seems the tests when it starts. Help much appreciated. Marie.
Simply put the RAM in both slots empty and you will be fine. Don't resist it.

End of 2012 Mac Mini running slow - about to try the following
Hi all
The performance of my Mac Mini is trying to drop off and looking for possible solutions to this, I can in this thread: Mac Mini (end 2012) is a little slow.
A few months ago I updated to El Capitan, and am now on 10.11.3. Since this update, my system performance fell substantially. I would like to see if I can get my Mini for best results there lately. One of the questions I think contributes to the Mini, less than excellent performance is my router configuration because of environmental constraints, my Mini has 2 walls and about 50 feet, which separates it from the wireless router. Currently, I don't think that there is something I can do to help that issue, so for now, I put that side.
In reading the above thread, I have also still only 4 original GB or RAM and the original supplied with my Mini.
RAM: 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
HD: I have not changed the HD that came with the mini, so I guess I have the 2.5 GHz 500 GB (5400 RPM) hard drive it is stated in the specifications.
Lately, I noticed Chrome running progressively slower (to the point of frustration). Therefore, I uninstalled Chrome and returned using Safari. As more and more, I use Safari, I think that his performance is what it is. I tried the Brave and my experience with it is mixed (at least on this point).
Question: I guess the first thing to do is to increase my RAM to 4 GB - and I will order the RAM here in a moment. What browser is best to use in this case: Chrome? Safari? Brave? Something else? Or it is better to run through all these during the upgrade of RAM is installed?
Let me start with that and I will update this thread as mandate experience. Thanks in advance for any help and / or thoughts.

End of 2012 very slow Mac. Etrecheck joint
I have a Mac to end 2012, El Capitan, which has been gradually running slower and slower. It seems preferable, once he is fully initialized, but it takes that which feels like an age to actually start, and if I try to open applications such as Mail, Safari. Finder etc., I sometimes get the beachball for several minutes. I ran a couple of Etrechecks for beachballing and the other for the computer is too slow. The disk information section seems worrying, but I'm not really sure what I'm looking at in the Etrecheck, so some constructive advice would be welcome.
Thank you very much in anticipation.

If you do not have a backup, copy both of your documents on a external drive NOW.
Then go to an authorized Apple store or repair shop and have the hard drive replaced.
If possible, take the opportunity to replace the old hard drive with an SSD. You will be amazed at your 'new' machine. It's like night and day.

Mac Mini, end of 2012, down from video signal
2012 (end) Mac Mini, model A1347, i7 to 2.3 GHz
OCW mercury Electra 6 G 120 GB SSD
Factory 1 TB HD
16 GB of Ram
S232 Acer
OS: 10.11.5
Question:
Video signal is de-energized.
Hi all
I use this machine to run Logic Pro X. I tried a few monitors and different cables, but the result is the same.
the video signal sporadically goes out. The only way I can get it is back to turn off the Mini for a hour or stick it in the fridge for 5 minutes. It doesn't seem to be dependent on the temperature, since it happens a lot less in the months more cold however showed the journal to monitor temperature as low as 73 C time and he fell again the thermal signal can therefore not the question.
The fan seems to work and I tried to change the memory to return with noticed no difference. I recently replaced the OCW SSD due to premature failure and spin a new installation of El Capitan on a new drive. I eliminated the monitor and cable as a culprit, so I think that I am dealing with an internal failure. The machine is not under warranty.
I read a lot of posts on mini Mac in thermal shutdown models particularly image, mine has not overheated or goes out, he simply loses its video signal. Fans and ports are clean and free of dust.
Everyone knows about this problem?
Install a fan speed and temperature app to help you determine if it is really related monitoring temp.

Then the MBP mid 2012 retina manage 2560x1440@60Hz?
Hey,.
I want to buy a monitor 1440 p (probably the Acer H257HU 25 "") and I wonder if my MacBook Pro (mid-2012) retina can handle full resolution at 60 Hz. I read that HDMI 2560 x 1440 is limited to 30 Hz or a little less than 60 Hz (at least on Mac OS). Can I get 60 Hz via a miniDP to DP cable? Thanks in advance,
deermichel
Yes. Mini Display port is a better method of HDMI connection. Plug the connector Mini DisplayPort to the ends of the cable port on your MacBook Thunderbolt.

Use two monitors on Mac Mini end of 2012
Hello
I am currently using only a single monitor (A Dell S2340M 23 "") with my Mac Mini end of 2012 (with these ports: Mac mini (end of 2012): external ports and connectors - Apple Support), and I am interested in adding a second monitor, something around the same size as my current. How to connect two monitors on my Mac? Thanks in advance.
The support for the Mac Mini shows article (end of 2012) and details which ports can do.
So you would probably need to get an adapter Thunderbolt using a second screen, seems.
See the items listed to connect to the Thunderbolt port in the link you posted. I have the same
link to my favorites for more than a year...
I have an i7 Mac Mini end of 2012, using only a screen Apple Cinema (aluminium).
Another option would also buy a bolt of lightning multiple port dock. Some allow others
products and ports in double. (Upward to 12 points, USB3.0, Thundebolt, etc) not cheap. A
A few screens can allow a Garland; Note looks like a bolt of lightning MiniDisplay port but can
not act like one. Adapters can allow minidisplay run Thunderbolt. See supported
Article and then see the page of the Apple store in graphics cards.

OWC has also an external optical drive with several ports integrated (with additional HARD disk).
Good luck!

Classification error. The class begins is greater at the end of the class.
Hello
I am looking for a solution to an error that doesn't make much sense to me:
Error in
(online: 75, column: 3): Classification error. The class begins is greater at the end of the class.
It seems that when I call the VBS attached on the PDM also attached. Tiara 2012. The index file does not make through the system of download here.
It seems to be triggered by funtion ChnHistogram() and the help page says something about ClassBegin/end being "global settings". What do these? Where we fixed them.
Thanks in advance for clues.
Hey cubz,.
script is great for debug it quickly.
The problem is caused by the ChnHistogram 75 online. It happens in the 3rd iteration of the loop to the detour.
The issue seems to be the ClassBegin or ClassEnd parameter. I think the error message should tell you that ClassBegin > ClassEnd, but this needs debugging later.
Best regards, Stephan

Hello to someone there is shiny armor!
My name is Lynne and I have a few questions that I am struggling to solve
I am running Dynamics GP 10.00.1368 that seems to be sp4
When I try to open the sales year end closing screen (Tools > Routines > sales > year end close) nothing happens, even through I the end window of the year closing checked ADMIN_SALES_015 slot (period of the end of Sales Routines) for POWERUSER which is how I'm connected (his).
I assumed (wrongly) that I would be able to address this issue at a later date after the end of June (end of the year our) so I allowed everyone back on the system and displays were held as usual. However, in reading several messages from various sources I have unfortunately starting to recognize I have a made a mistake here & missed the two boats at the end of year!
I would really appreciate it if someone could: -.
(a) advise on how I can get to see the end of year sales closing screen &
(b) run a successful year for end of December 2011 end, then a end of year to end June 2012
or to offer advice on the best way to address this issue. for example is there there a script that fills all the fields of LYR & CDA and LTD with correct figures once I "tell him" what the 'Calendar' and 'Financial' end of year dates were?
I understand that buying and year-end sales routines are optional, but nevertheless I am pretty cross with myself for letting these routines lapse.
If there is no cure here, it will take until the end of December and just close the calendar year then as normal and live with the fact that "Last year" will be two years ' worth of data?
Should I seek to apply a new service pack / hotfix - I can't even my mind upward that, if all I should download and apply?
Nothing is ever simple, unless maybe it's typing here!
I know I asked a lot of questions and I thank you for taking the time to read this.
Your impotent!

Existing Windows updates will still be available for download after the end of the world?
Even though I am well aware that the Extended Support for Windows XP ends April 8 next year, I wonder if it will be possible to download existing updates to update of Windows, including Service Pack 3, after the end of the Extended Support phase.
Thank you
ThomasI wonder if there is a way to download all the updates relevant at a time, in a sort of package instead download and install each one, one.
If you mean every single security update (and Service Pack) that is never released for Windows XP (that is, since August 2001), God not!
If you end up needing to do a clean install of Windows XP after Q 2, 14, you would be better to replace the computer! [1]
PS: Get a computer fully patched after doing a clean install of Windows XP Gold (no Service Pack) may take 24 hours or more!
================================================================
[1] I have resisted to replace my laptop Windows XP 9 year and enjoyed for years. Then end of December 2012, I realized that something other that a new
Win8 computer would soon be almost impossible, so I gritted my teeth & get a Win7 (64 bit) laptop for a very reasonable price IMHO. Find it was a bit of a challenge.
