I am running 10.11.1 I can also run 10.8.5 on my mac mini?
I just bought a Mac Mini with El Capitan 10.11.1 installed. The only reason why I bought this computer was to run an older version of Pro Tools 10.3.10
After trying to install ProTools 10.3.10 I was warned that I needed a new version of OS X lol. It turns out that this version of Pro Tools is supported only on 10.8.2 - 10.8.5. Is it possible to run 10.8.5 on my new Mac Mini that has El Capitan installed? (does not really need, my audio hardware is supported only up to 10.10.1 as well)

Not on a Mac of 2014.

Can I connect my MacBook Air to my Mac Mini so that I can use the display of the Mac Mini?
Hi all
Can I connect my MacBook Air to my Mac Mini so that I can use the display of the Mac Mini?
The Mac Mini is the end of 2014 with 2 ports thunderbolt model and is connected to a mini display port monitor.
I'm just fed up of having to pull on the cable of the Mac Mini to connect the MacBook Air.
Any ideas? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Using the built-in screen sharing are an application like:
Only some iMacs support the target Display Mode
Use your iMac as a display with the target - Apple Support Display Mode

Can I use an Apple TV on a Mac mini/TBD instead of a TV?
I bought the 4th generation Apple TV yesterday. I don't have a TV, so I use streaming on my Macbook Pro (early 2013) or Mac mini (end of 2014), often using AirPlay. I read somewhere that any Mac with the HDMI connector will be able to connect to the Apple TV. However, when I haven't tried to put in place last night on my Mac nothing happened - no screen set. Then I created mountain BIKING with my projector and it worked fine, so I used it for a few hours.
My mac mini is connected to my Thunderbolt display. My plan was to have next to the mini ATV, connected via HDMI and we hope to activate and use the ATV through the TBD. Is there a reason why wouldn't this configuration? Or I have to change any input or output parameters?
HDMI ports are not multi directional. There are inputs and outputs, nothing which does both. HDMI ports on computers came out. On the ATV HDMI port is out. Ports HDMI TV came. Projectors have entered HDMI. As the birds and the bees, inputs connect with outputs.
I appeciate wanting to use your Thunderbolt display, but unless you can find an HDMI input or an adapter for HDMI output in thunderbolt (not the reverse adapter which are common), you're out of luck. You would need to connect directly to the screen.
Apple TV has been designed to serve your HDTV display...

You can use an external hard drive with the Mac Mini?
I've seen videos that say that we cannot increase the ram on a min of Mac, but I'm curious if this works like an ordinary computer, if we can attach an external hard drive to store some of the memory to free up space. Sorry if this is something stupid just need to know what I can do with it.
You can use an external hard drive to boot and run with any Mac. Its not going to improve or replace your ram. If you use a mechanical hard drive in any Mac then help and boot from an external drive, especially if it's a SSD will be significantly faster.

Can I connect a non-apple for my mac mini screen
How to connect a non-apple for my mac mini screen?
1. see #2.
2. it depends on what type of cable the monitor has and the Mac mini ports; It is not a difference between an Apple and a monitor no Apple for this purpose. A Mini DisplayPort adapter allows to connect an older display until a Thunderbolt port.

I bought the version CS5 Master Collection for Mac student-to-teacher in 2010 when it was the version of the software. It is on a DVD. I don't have a Mac, as I had hoped. I've never been able to use my CS5 Master Collection Adobe.
These Adobe programs were very expensive and also a dream come true for me, and I would like to be able to use them. I can now buy a Mac computer. I ask this question in order to get help in the configuration of a computer system which runs programs of CS5 Master Collection effectively.
I want a computer with the best capability I can afford. My budget is in the vicinity of five thousand dollars. My technical knowledge is extremely limited. I need a response that sets out very clearly and very basically things in full detail.
If it is impossible now to make effective use of the CS5 Master Collection, so I would like to know this, so that uncertainty about my software Adobe need no more trouble and affect my buying decision. My old windows computer recently crashed and I need to start shopping for a computer.
I'd be happy to answer any questions that might help you solve my problem, so please post them here. Thank you!
CS 5 you can install it on the latest version of Mac OS, its not otherwise impossible except scenario very very rare. But the official response is this old version apps are not tested against the latest Mac or no support is available for CS 5 Adobe assistance now. But you can get help from staff, but also colleagues.
But it is confirmed that CS 2 versions cannot be installed because they are Power PC apps. Rosetta is not available for the latest version of Mac OS.
now the Collection Adobe apps are subscription like monthly / annual subscription.
Pricing plans and creative Cloud membership | Adobe Creative Cloud
But most of the users have managed to install CS 5 version on Mac OS X 10.11, little inconsistency there. We can fix.

4 Sims can run on Mac Mini?
Hello
IM planning to buy a mid-range mac mini (2.6 ghz). We want to play sims 4 using this computer. We discovered at amazon.com that the requirements are the following:
MAC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
MINIMUM SPECIFICATIONS
OS: Mac OS X 10.7.5 (Lion)
PROCESSOR: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 Ghz processor or higher
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GeForce 320 M, 9600 M, 9400 M, ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro or better. Video RAM of 256 MB or higher.

OS: Mac OS X 10.9 or later
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i5 or better
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GTX 650 or better
MEMORY: 8 GB RAM
HARD DISK: 10 GB hard driveHello
In order to not bore you with the "technical gibberish:
The low-end and mid-range Mac mini will run fine on the graphic side, if not the best, because Mac is not considered for game machines.
Indeed, your best bet is to go for the mid-range Mac Mini for all other requirements, If you are ok to wait the usual queue of the application time load. If you want much faster load times, you should (if your budget allows) will in addition to the fusion drive option, because it will increase the overall longevity of your machine in terms of speed.
See you soon

How can I check my Mac mini for spyware and other viruses
How can I check my Mac mini for software spyware and other forms of virus? Recently, I received an electronic invoice which seems to come from Apple on a purchase that I did not. Unfortunately, I answered by clicking on a link that asked me to cancel or manage this purchase that led me to a site that didn't look like an official Apple site. I am afraid that simply by doing so, I welcomed the spyware on my Mac mini hard drive.
My Mac was purchased in 2011 and runs on OS X El Capitan (version 10.11.6).
Kind regards
Politkovskaya
Receive a fraudulent e-mail for a purchase confirmation, you did not is a very common scam. Remember that you are not misled by providing personal information solicited by this e-mail.
Unfortunately, I answered by clicking on a link that asked me to cancel or manage this purchase that led me to a site that didn't look like an official Apple site. I am afraid that simply by doing so, I welcomed the spyware on my Mac mini hard drive.
No harm will come of the fact that you wrote. Fraudulent Web sites that are made to appear as legitimate those who are specially designed to convince you to reveal personal information. If you don't have that, no further action is necessary or justified. Do not install anything, no matter the source or the apparent popularity, in response to one such scam. To do this would be the first step in a path well worn to the misery.
On the other hand, if you were tricked into providing personal information (like your Apple ID and password) you will need to change your password on Apple ID. Please write back for instructions.

Mid 2011 Mac Mini running slow/a lot of balloons of beach/HDD to research and writing
I have a Mid 2011 Mac Mini, which runs slower than a snail's pace. I frequently get beach balls as I type this message. Startup time is very long, and the hard drive is often written / search/access for several minutes at random throughout the day.
This seemed to start after I have updated to El Capitan 10.11.6. I decided a few weeks to reinstall OS X without doing a thorough cleaning. It did not help the situation, so I then proceeded to install the latest beta of Mac OS 10.12 to see if that helped. Nope. I don't think I have a bad hard drive, either.
I have just run an EtreCheck and copied below. Any ideas? I don't want to run my computer at the Apple store. Thank you!

Mac Mini (mid-2010) fan running full speed
I went on the hard drive of a few years for one SSD OEM and the fan runs all the time. In my view, there is a connector on the card, which has no connection with it.
I read that this occurs when the thermal sensor is not placed on the new hard drive.
How many connection should be here soon out of the drive to connect to the map?
How can I fix?
TIA
The original HD had a sensor taped to the road with adhesive tape double faces. You had to move the sensor to the new drive. Without the detector, the fan runs at full speed.
What ha [[ERA of the sensor on your Mac?
