Mac Mini end of 2012: Processor: Core i7 clocked at 2.6 GHz; RAM: 16 GB; Video card:

HD 4000, 512 MB graphics card;

iMac plug end of 2015: Processor: Core i5 2.8 GHz; RAM: 16 GB; Video card:

IRIS Pro 6200, 1.7 GB;

The SSD is the same.

Thanks for your replies!

Download GeekBench and look over the results of tests to find out. Not enough information provided and without tests side by side of each configuration, it's almost an impossible question to answer definitively.

The SSD used by Apple in a Mini 2012 is not necessarily the same brand and model from the one used in an iMac of 2015. Then there is a dual-core or quad-core i7 in the Mini. iMacs usually had the quad-core processors, I think.

  • Is faster than the HP Mini 110 Microsoft Surface?

    My HP Mini 110 series netbook is SLOW and it is 2 years old and the Microsoft Surface seems newer, but I want to know if the Microsoft Surface would go faster (for example, loading programs and files, etc.)

    The HP Mini 110 has an Intel Atom processor and the Microsoft Surface has an ARM processor.

    The Microsoft Surface would be faster than the HP Mini 110?

    It must be such that it is a newer CPU, but until the Surface is in the hands of consumers, we do not have really the real world benchmarks. I am 100% sure that whatever that is released by Microsoft or others would show much faster and better in all aspects. But these are marketing people making conversation, not technicians running the real numbers.

  • My screen is not clear on the mac mini, when you use HDMI with a TV monitor

    I have just bought a new Mac Mini and plugged into my TV with the HDMI cable. The display is not very clear, and in particular, the text seems to be very low resolution. Someone has ideas how to change settings to improve quality?

    What is the native resolution of the TV?
    What is the display resolution?

    Go to System Preferences > displays and look.

  • Mail of the Mac Mini, iMac with the migration wizard

    I have a mac mini (2014 - El Capitan) that I have used for some time now and I have many mailboxes (30 +) with many stored messages (100s maybe 1000s).

    I recently picked up a 2011 27 iMac which is running OS X Sierra Final Release Candidate due to vision problems.

    Both units are working well but I would like to transfer my boxes to the letters, messages, and the account settings from the Mac Mini to the iMac using Migration Assistant to take advantage of the larger screen.

    Am I able to select only the data for e-mail (boxes letters, messages and settings) to transfer somewhere in the Migration Wizard interface or will it just to start the transfer of all?

    I use iCloud for note, calendars and contacts, but prefer not to use for e-mail.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    WN

    The simplest option would be to use Time Machine to restore your data.

    Other Options:

    You can export the folders you want to transfer the mini using export of Mail under mailbox function in the Menu bar > export a mailbox... Drag to the folder on the desktop on the new iMac and import in Mail. File > import boxes mailbox...

    You can also use a third-party application, Emailchemy to export your Mail on the mini and pull only the folders you want and import. If you have many files, it would be a faster option.

    http://www.weirdkid.com/products/emailchemy/

    Otherwise, you could drag on the whole Mail > V3 folder let Sierra update data. This assumes that you have already started using Mail to Sierra.

    You don't have to use iCloud email to use Apple Mail. I strongly suggest that you use IMAP to service what ever you choose to use.  Comcast, Yahoo, Gmail, AOL, Hotmail (other)

  • Is the edition of the Mac Mini (2.6 GHz, 8 GB, Iris Graphics) good for photo?

    Hello!

    It's time for me to invest in a new laptop / desktop, especially that I picked up photography as a hobby. I've always been a Windows user, but after purchasing my iPhone and iPad, I plan to join the Mac camp. Right now I'm undecided, get a Windows laptop (with all of the easy extensibility comes with it), or the Mac Mini (2.6 GHz, 8 GB, Iris Graphics) and be stuck with its 8 GB of RAM? Portability isn't a factor for me, and I can't afford a higher spec Mac (especially since I'll receive a Fujifilm X - T1 soon!). This configuration of Mac Mini will serve me well for at least 5 years, using Photoshop/Lightroom?

    See you soon!

    You can order it with 16 GB of RAM.

    The extent of the Photoshop and Lightroom, the current Minis will be just adequate.

    You will not get the performance you out of a machine with discrete graphics.

    Although it is better than previous iterations of the integrated graphics card Intel.

  • Clean install of Windows a lot faster than the preinstalled system?

    My satallite comes with windows 64-bit installed.
    Since a lot of people suggested, here and elsehwere, a clean installation making consierably faster than the pre-installed windows (all bloated and unwanted software uninstalled with the uninstall program).

    Although fresh installtion was faster without drivers and programs, it has become more or less the same after installation of all software, etc. (perhaps a difference of 2 to 4% in the use of RAM) (over 4 GB)

    Is this normal or do others go much faster on any new install, for me, this effort has proved there is not a lot of use to do a clean install to drive retail.

    Ideas, wiers and feed back?

    See you soon

    Many pre-installed utilities are required for correct functionality and it can be a headache get these functions to work after installing a street copy of Windows.

    You will find that when you install Antivirus software on a street copy of Windows, it will happen similar to the pre-installed Windows installation. So if you want that the installation of Windows pre-installed perform better, uninstall the Antivirus should do the trick.

  • Why disable SuperFetch on ssd, if the RAM is much faster than the ssd?

    Directed by Microsoft that SuperFetch and PreFetch must be disabled, if the OS is installed on an ssd, in accordance with article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2727880. But SuperFetch is used for loading the data components of applications, which were very often used for RAM. Although the ssd is faster that a hard drive is not faster than the RAM. So, I do not understand why Microsoft suggest disabling this feature. The only reason why I want to understand, it's because of a limited RAM. If the RAM is sufficient beyond 6 GB, if we disable SuperFetch, then the boot time and increase the loading time of most used applications. I miss something here?

    The other question is about PreFetch. I feel, maybe wrong, it does the same thing with SuperFetch, with one major difference. It loads all the information data on the ssd or hard drive, instead of the RAM, in order to accelerate the launch of applications and time when the OS is installed on a hard drive to boot. If I'm right, let's disable the PreFetch it stores information for one ssd or hdd, while SuperFetch stores data of RAM information, which is much faster and so it must be enabled if there is a sufficient RAM.

    I look forward to reading the notice of a Microsoft software engineer.

    Hi Leventis,

    Prefetch copies frequently accessed files together into a contiguous on the disk area so that they can be located and loaded more quickly. That it takes a lot of old drives to recover data faster.

    SuperFetch predict what applications you run next and preload all the necessary data in the memory. She has also done that with startup files. And for all the three days he sends a defragmentation command to the OS drive that will cause problems in the SSD drives.

    In traditional hard drives (HDD) data are scattered throughout the disk, so that the operating system for access, it will take more time. It is suggested to perform a disk defragmentation. But storage technology is different in SSD, where, it records the data dynamically and it recovers more quickly. Who will be low down the burden on the RAM and the RAM can be used for uses such as for the opening of the games graphics high-end, etc..

    Hope this information is useful.

  • VRAM can be improved in the Mac Mini graphics card?

    My goal is to run the FCP and the movement on an older mac mini.   End 2012, Mac Mini, but the only missing area is the amount of VRAM associated with the graphics card.  For example; Intel HD Graphics 4000 with 1536 MB shared VRAM, Motion 5.2 specifications is VRAM 256, I upgrade the VRAM?  I can update the entire graphics card, or would one of these more trouble than what it's worth?

    Here are the full specifications of the Mac Mini I am considering buying used.

    2.3 GHz Intel QUAD 'Core i7' processor with boost speeds up to 3.3 GHz

    8 GB of 1600 memory DDR3 SDRAM MHz (PC3-12800), easily expandable to 16 GB

    256 GB of Flash storage

    Intel HD Graphics with 1536 MB shared VRAM 4000

    Port FireWire "800", four USB 3.0 ports, HDMI, Thunderbolt

    The only thing out of the plug of movement is the VRAM.

    Thank you for your help.

    Michael C.

    Mac Mini memory system is used for VRAM on 2012.

    There is no way to increase the system RAM, it serves of VRAM, once you max the RAM System.

    With less than 4 to 8 GB of system RAM less system RAM use of VRAM

  • Is faster than the local AIR IOS app remote SWF SWF because I can ' t use the unloading code.

    Are faster than the local SWF on AIR IOS app remote SWF because I can't use the code to unload on IOS of AIR.

    my local code:

    Stop();

    import flash.net.URLRequest;

    import flash.system.ApplicationDomain;

    import flash.system.LoaderContext;

    import flash.filesystem.File;

    import flash.filesystem.FileMode;

    import flash.filesystem.FileStream

    go_level_2.addEventListener (MouseEvent.Click, Level_2);

    function level_2(event:MouseEvent) {}

    var loader2:Loader = new Loader();

    var loaderContext2:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext (false, ApplicationDomain.currentDomain);

    var file2:File = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath ("level2.swf");

    loader2. Load (new URLRequest (file2.url), loaderContext2);

    addChild (loader2);

    }

    Because it works for me, because I can't unload the SWF app file en becomes slow, I'll put the SWf file "s on a remote location.

    But I can't imagine what is happening when I loaded the SWF file remotely. It remains on the server, or it remains on my application when I unloaded it, and the app gets also larger. I hope you can help me because I went on the internet for a week and do not now how to go further.

    I had a similar problem, but not on iOS.

    Maybe my solution might work for you too, however.

    The problem was this line:

    new LoaderContext (false, ApplicationDomain.currentDomain);

    Do not reuse the same field of application, or you will never be able to get rid definitions and thus the SWF loaded.

    Instead, make a new child application domain for the current domain, keep track of it and it has as well as the rest of the SWF file when you are finished.

    Example:

    var loader2:Loader = new Loader();

    var appDomain2:ApplicationDomain = new ApplicationDomain (ApplicationDomain.currentDomain);

    var loaderContext2:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext (false, appDomain2);

    var file2:File = File.applicationDirectory.resolvePath ("level2.swf");

    loader2. Load (new URLRequest (file2.url), loaderContext2);

    addChild (loader2);

    Then

    function finishLevel2(event:Event):void

    {

    var loader2:Loader;

    loader2 = Event.Target.Loader;
    loader2.parent.removeChild (loader2);

    loader2.unloadAndStop ();

    appDomain2 = null;

    }

    Note that the definitions of the classes of the loaded SWF file will be available in the new application domain.

  • Cannot put the Mac mini mid-2011 to sleep

    My mac mini (mid 2011, 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5) stopped going to sleep a few days ago. Neither Finder, command line or the energy settings are able to put it to sleep. SMC and NVRAM reset did not help, even reinstall 10.11.4 does not solve the problem. No hardware connected except for the screen and the keyboard. In fact, the display goes to sleep, but the mac mini stay awake... Also tried to wait some time for her to go to sleep, but nothing happens.

    Here is the console log after that I tried to put it to sleep, waited a moment and reconnected. Any interpretation help is very appreciated!

  • HP w2207h monitor: HP monitor crashes if connected to the Mac Mini

    My w2207h monitor works fine connected to 2 computers. A Dell laptop connected with a cable HDMI and a Fujitsu PC connected with VGA cable. I spend between the 2 with the menu key of monitors and the function 'change the video input '. However, I just buy a Mac Mini and connected via HDMI but now, pass the VGA to HDMI causes the monitor to crash/power down. Even the light around the power button goes off and nothing works. To relight the monior screen, the only way is to disconnect the cable from power for a few minutes. The monitor works with an another old laptop connected via HDMI as doeas the Mac Mini connected to an old television set. I thought HDMI HDMI was, but this monior dislikes my Mac. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the information Dunidar. A long session, running tests with Apple confirmed that this monitor does not work with Mac Mini. The only solution was to buy a new monitor :-(
