Mac Mini can't use internet restoration

I bought a Mini 2012 end w / Mavericks preinstalled.
After troubleshooting in all possible ways, Ive decided to do a system restore (Im only going in the why, was this road) so I do a restart w / com + opt + R and get the screen for the restoration of OS X, and what I see?

The Restore screen wants to reinstall Mountain Lion. What? my machine came with the Mavericks?
Whats up with that?

So I decided to go w / Lion mountain, but no. I said that it can not install on my Mac as a newer OS already exists.

TSF is this BS?

I bought a machine Mavericks strand, but as the restoration said that he initially was Mountain Lion, now I find that I can still do a restore?
So now, I have a lovely new paperweight?

The Restore screen wants to reinstall Mountain Lion.

Recovery of the Internet installs the operating system the computer comes with, not the current operating system.

What you need to do is start in Internet recovery and wipe the drive, then install Mountain Lion. This erases all your data, you need a backup of the drive before you start.

Have you tried to reinstall the operating system using the recovery Partition (command-r on a reboot)?

    You have two activations and no more. If you need to register a third party, you will need to purchase another package. Yes, the installers can be copied to any media that you consider appropriate.

    Hello david,.

    That is right. Cloud software can be installed on Mac or Windows for no extra cost. No platform swap process is necessary.

    On the Mac log you just to creative.adobe.com with your Adobe ID and download the software. Same thing as you did on the PC.

  • My Mac Mini can be hacked from the Wifi?

    Hello!

    I was a proud owner of Mac Mini, less than a week. First of all, I would like to give my gratitude to Apple for creating this wonderful little tool.

    But as a long time Windows user, I ran into a problem I can't seem to find an answer to.

    I discovered that my Mac had opened a Wifi connection. And as a person, which is used for cables Ethernet (that I use now, too), the Wifi is unknown and not very liked territory.

    Was on WiFi, but marked "wifi is turned on, but is not connected to a network.

    N00b I am, am a little worried about this new link, began to bite it and found a lot of names, I understand where my neighbors Wifi connections. With my luck, I managed to hurt someone, who do not have their protected Wifi password and found myself suddenly watching "wifi is connected to the android ap and a IP [...]".

    I panicked as *, started trying to find a way to get rid of it and seemed finally to delete it after 3 minutes of the curse.

    Then, I turned off the wifi and changed to 'inactive' as well.

    My apologizes for the long text, but I'd love to hear the opinions of people who are not filled with panic as I am:

    1) when "wifi is turned on, but is not connected to a network", it means it is secure and no one can hack my wifi Mac?

    (2) when I entered accidentally someone another wifi unprotected for a few minutes, my Mac have been compromised?

    And the most important:

    (3) Changing wifi to be 'off' and then 'dormant', am I sure of any wifi hacking back? As there is zero connection wifi and no one outside could enforce on my Mac?

    I understand how stupid my questions can and no doubt make sound, but I'm inherently paranoid person and only one in my family, which has a semblance of agreement when it comes to computers, so there is no one to ask.

    I would be very grateful if someone could help me,

    Sincerely

    (1) Yes

    (2) No, just don't send any important information on an unprotected WiFi (passwords, credit card numbers etc.)

    (3) Yes

  • 2014 mac mini can play a sound in my sound bar?

    Hello and thanks in advance. I use my Mac mini to 2014 as a HTPC, I'm having the hardest time trying to get my mini play sounds through my bar of the Harmon Kardon SB16. Currently I have the mini connected via HDMI to the tv and optical ranging from the soundbar in tv. Works great, but my goal is to control the volume using the keyboard instead of using the TV remote. I tried the optical toslink cable from the soundbar in 3.5 mm jack at the rear of the changed mini settings in sound through system suggestions as well as the MIDI parameters in the application in utilities. In the system prefs it shows optical but no master volume and needless to say, not only no sound. I thought that the 3.5 mm jack plug served as a helmet and s/pdif digital output. Do I need a DAC converter any to have this capability? I was looking in the Music Streamer technologies of high resolution of THS lll I called audio shops I found online and all said call Apple that I find strange, given that many people use Mac/PC for the sound through stereo receivers. The soundbar has several types of connection coaxial, fiber optics and source 1 rca red white. I think that this is possible only with a stereo receiver. Sorry for my ignorance on this, but I'm at my wits end, trying to find a solution. My bar of his 2.1 has amazing sound and not looking forward to buying a receiver to have this feature.

    LLL of stream music

    Cable to connect the soundbar to mini.

    You can. Looks like sound bar has an analog connection (source a) with a connection to the left and to the right. All you need is to get a cable with on one side a Jack 3.5 mm to connect the headset to your mini. And the other side 2 taken. One to connect to each Source 1 connections. That should do it

    They look like this: http://www.reloop.com/reloop-cable-stereo-6-3-mm-jack-m-2x-mono-6-3-mm-jack-m-3-0 m

  • I currently use Firefox on my Mac. Can I use mobile Firefox on my I Phone and I have Pad?

    I find confusing information available. The single window it says Anrdoid, but on another, it shows availability through Firefox\home\mobile

    Firefox Home is not a web browser, but an iOS application that allows you to synchronize your bookmarks Firefox desktop, historical, navigation and tablets.

    Currently, Firefox mobile support Android 2.1 + and devices with the ARMv7 (not ARMv6 or ARM11) cpu type.

    https://wiki.Mozilla.org/mobile/platforms

    iPhone/iPad/iPod
        We have no plans to release the full Firefox browser for iOS. The iOS SDK agreement requires apps to use Apple's own JavaScript engine (or none at all, like Opera Mini which downloads pre-rendered pages from Opera's servers and cannot run JavaScript code in the client). Because of this, we have no supported way to distribute Firefox's rendering and JavaScript engine to iPhone users.
       However, you can download Firefox Home for iPhone (can work on iPad), an iOS app that uses Firefox Sync to deliver Firefox bookmarks, browsing history, and tabs to your iPhone or iPod Touch.

  • Connected to the local network, but can not use internet

    I recently had problems with access to the internet after reinstalling windows 7. Before the reinstall worked very well.

    I can connect to the local network without problem, and it shows that the internet is connected. Yet I can not access the internet. When I disconnect and reconnect, I get a few seconds of internet work before it stops working.

    When a diagnosis in the network and sharing Center, I get the error "default gateway is not available" and occasionally "the connection between your access point, etc. and internet is broken"

    Other computers and devices using the network are working properly, although there was a 'competitor IP address' error on another pc, which, after a reconnection, solved itself.
