I have an IMAC of mid-2011.  Can I connect a Mac mini to this iMac 2011 and use this monitor that has a built in processor?

You should be able to, given the Mac Mini has the correct connections (in this case, a Thunderbolt connection).

    I have an iMac with a perfectly fine display 10.4, but I'm not able to upgrade more. I wonder if I can connect a mac mini and upgrade using my keyboard and screen of the iMac.

    Hi readingteacher,.

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. I understand that you want to use your older iMac as a display of your Mac Mini. I am pleased to provide you with some information about this process.

    This article has some good information on what is needed to turn your iMac in a view:

    Use your iMac as a display with the target Display Mode

    As you can see, it takes an iMac compatible with 10.6.1 or later. Since your iMac seems to be a G5 with 10.4.8, I'm afraid that it is not compatible with this feature.

    I hope this helps clear of the things up. See you soon!

    I just bought 14 elements Photoshop and Photoshop first 14 for Mac (I have an iMac OSX) and downloaded and received periodic publications related to them. But try to install it after you type the serial number, I get the message that Adobe is unable to validate the serial number. I was chatting with the support of Adobes cat, who recommended to download the two files-dog again, but with the same bad result. Can someone help me?

    (1) right click on the Finder on dock icon and select the option "Go - To Folder."
    (2) you will get a text box, type in below mentioned command and then press 'return '.

    / etc

    (3) it will open the etc folder, look for file named "hosts" and the same screenshot of office.

    (4) double click on the Hosts file, it will open it with TextEdit.

    Let me know if you see any Adobe related as entries in the Hosts file 127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com... etc?

    Hello

    Here are the specs of your machine:

    He uses: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500 M, which is soldred to the motherboard so practically you can not change because you have to change the motherboard, to buy the new video card, to change the cooling system... all adding up will cost more than a new machine.

    Kind regards.

  • I have only 300 GB, I discovered that 32 of the tokk games up to 3.32 GB. Can I burn it to a DVD and use them like that?

    I have only 300 GB, like I had more but don't know how to do in this regard. I win a lot of Bigfish games, I discovered that 32 of the tokk games up to 3.32 GB. I have more than a hundred of their games I bought so I hate to remove them. Can I burn it to a DVD and use them like that?

    I may be possible. There are several factors that can stop the games run from a DVD.
    A better option for success would be to use a USB stick, but I'll be referring to DVD.
    The kind of games that you download big fish are more likely to be able to run from a DVD a lot of games. The best way to know is to burn on a DVD, but the process will be a little tricky when you burn the game to the DVD it will change the installation path (from C:\ to the drive letter of your DVD eg - E:\).
    You can try the following-
    -Copy the folder of games on DVD

    -Rename the folder the game is installed on the HARD drive. Just add a few letters before the name of the game, for example, Bejeweled to aaa Bejeweled.
    If the experiment fails, simply remove you the extra letters and plays the game.
    (a) - If you do this, you go back to the original name to uninstall the game if you want to later, and the Launcher of Big Fish (or what is called the Big Fish program) may have a problem when you rename the Games folder as well, so don't try to run the game from the Big Fish app to use a shortcut.

    -Make a new shortcut to the games .exe in the folder that you copied to the DVD. and see if the game will be launched from there.
    (a) you must always change the path on the new shortcut if it still reads
    the original location of the game is installed.
    To do this, you change the drive letter in the properties (R\Click on the shortcut)
    in the original example - C:\.  There are two places you need to do this-
    'Target' and ' start in '. If the name of the games is long, it may be easier to copy the
    'Target' in Notepad to reveal the path drive. You can change the path of the reader here and then copy and passed to the 'target' box in the properties of the shortcut.
    Do the same with "start in" if necessary.

    If you have a lot of video or music, then they would be more suitable for playing from a DVD.
    If you are running low on HARD disk space the best option is to install a second drive HARD a 500 GB HARD disk is cheap, better value for money than a USB key and easy to install.  There are many tutorials on the i-net for installation
    a HARD drive.

    When I have videos on my calendar, they do not play in the screen of the monitor. I hear the audio but can't see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I have used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but don't see any video. Have I changed it some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

    Thanks for the follow-up.

    Missing in this equation are the Premiere Elements version you were using and the operating system on which it is running. But...

    The Act is accomplished. But... Up to now, and after that you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what Premiere Elements version you were using. We don't yet know the operating system involved.

    You said first Elements 10. First 10 Elements is affected by a problem serious display known if the computer uses an NVIDIA GeForce video/graphics card card. In this issue, the only cure is to roll back the version of the driver about may 2013. The description of the problem and how to make the rear roller are described in one of the messages at the top of this forum. What video/graphics card your computer use?

    On another front, Adobe will release a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. Not one, but Adobe knows the function defined for the new version. This type of information is announced at the time of the release of the new version.

    So the solution to the problem you presented in this thread could have been...

    1 roll back the version of the NVIDIA GeForce driver for all may 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, maybe not possible)

    2. move to a different version of Premiere Elements (which you did)

    I offer the foregoing for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that the first items 12/12.1 works for you.

    Please do not hesitate to ask questions and seek clarification, but do not forget that the answers are in the details.

    Best wishes
