Mini wake up monitor with Mail

Embarrassing, even if unfortunately intermittent problem with my Mac Mini, os 10.11.5.

When moved to enjoy TV with the night lights, my Mini kicks periodically on the Dell Monitor to get a boring jet of light, which lasts about 10 minutes.

This seems to coincide with my audible devices giving sound new mail (and the Mini also giving him if I have speakers on).

Unfortunately this happens not every night, but most of the nights. How to stop this aggravating behavior?

Assuming that your have setup you Mac to sleep/power Nap (if applicable) when not used, is the system preferences > Energy Saver is Wake for verified network access?

  • 4 monitors with X 220?

    Yes, Yes, I know.  But it seems that the new X 220 will be robust enough and even if it is the bridge of the integrated graphics, sand looks promising.

    The configuration of my favorite would be to use ports, displayport and vga on the ban for two of the monitors, and then two more connected by USB using a device such as the EVGA UV more (which as I understand it uses a compression chip to deliver graphics by USB but still used the computer resources to treat the graphics).

    Another possibility, if necessary, would be to connect an external PCIe ExpressCard port hunts and use an external graphics card true.

    All monitors are 1920 x 1080.  I will not use productivity applications, except that I can play full-motion video on one of the external monitors (which I'll plug on the displayport).

    So am I on crack?  When you set up the laptop, what is more important to max out?  RAM?  Processor?  The two equally important?

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Thoughts of display technology:

    The displayport interface is supposed to offer the support of multiple monitors by itself with an adapter. Look at the displayport technology and see if it will work for you. I had trouble finding monitors with displayport well. I think that a group of suppliers have agreed to remove the VGA port in the future. You should probably look into that as well.

    Choice of hardware warranty thoughts:

    One thing to remember, the Lenovo warranty applies only to Lenovo hardware purchase or authorized retailer. Parts such as memory, hard drives, wifi cards, etc... (guaranteed batteries are a special case). Certainly, some companies hard drive offers its own guaranteed, and it may be the case even for memory as well. Just be careful to not voiding your warranty of Lenovo computer if you decide to tinker with after purchase.

    Intel HD Graphics thoughts:

    According to a 220 video x, the second generation, I have carrots is supposed to be twice as fast graphics wise like the first generation I have carrots. Unfortunately, I don't have a second generation, I have Core x 220 mobile, but I have a first generatrion I top level x 201 Core i7 - 620 M (). Netflix HD Streaming works well at 1080 p on a 60 Hz. DVD screen and BluRays are working well to 1080 p on a 60 Hz. display HD Cameras are good as well that Microsoft has finally fixed mine. With a few new games, the x 201 is a little bit short meeting that minimum listing some on high end games. I don't see a problem with graphically work art packages. Video editing and programming of business applications should not be a problem either. Presentations on the VGA port with some projectors may have some problems. Give yourself pletty of the time of the installation if you have not used the front projector. The spotlight will not be a problem with the x 220.

    Thoughts of discrete graphics:

    I think that high-end desktop graphics are crazy and ridiculous now. Consumption requirements is like having two separate computers. Do not forget, that most of the highend stuff takes two LONG slits of a desktop machine. There are liquid cooled by a slot options, but mainly things like using too much power. That apply to your laptop, and you'd probably need to carry a car battery to do the job. The 220 x is not a portable game uber kind of stuff requires a lot more circuits and cooling systems. The 220 x is in the ultraportable category.

    Thoughts of operating system:

    I think that Windows 8 may be available next year some time. It is supposed to support chips ARM based in addition to what we have now. Looks like a hairball 32-bit, 64-bit and now ARM.

    Thoughts of external Port:

    Port Thunderbolt Intel looks like a winner for external speed in the future. Port Thunderbolt Intel is assumed initially twice as fast in the Port of USB 3.0 and increase from there in the future. Maybe a 221 x would get the Port Thunderbolt Intel in the future, but I don't know about it.

    Other ideas of calculation:

    Waiting always seems to give a better option for the calculation, but then again your not to make any progress in the meantime. I just helped my mother buy a Thinkpad Edge of a store selling retail knowing that the second generation I have carrots go roll. She had to get up to speed on Thinkpad T43 was just too slow and the CPU fan was wrong. The computer on which she had lived a hard life for several years. I know how she uses the computer and 2 x improved graphic speed would not really important to her. She made a bargain for $750, and it is easier to transfer his stuff with two work computers.

    Overall thoughts:

    If you're going to order CTO, Max the processor, memory and hard disk preferences. Examine the wireless options, Intel wireless display seems to fancy and Nice, but if you don't use it, there is not much value until sell you it to someone who does not want to use it. Close look at the CPU options as well, if you are running the virtual machine software, you can see Intel Ark pages to get the right CPU. If you want to run the drive encryption, Intel Ark may be useful for this page as well. Large amounts of RAM means that you could probably ditch the Windows 7 pagefile on the hard drive. I don't have a Windows 7 pagefile on my machine, and I do not miss. I don't think that the new battery slice that snaps at the bottom of the laptop will spread for the 220 x. Most probably the normal battery or one extended would be preferable. A docking station is pretty painless and works well for me. Still, I haven't that K 1 Blu - Ray recorder so.

    Have fun and don't forget of the availability of the online chat with sales or the number of phone sales as well.

  • Microsoft Exchange: Server does not delete messages deleted or moved with Mail

    It drives me crazy.  I have a Microsoft Exchange account at work that I put in place with the mail.  It seems to work perfectly in almost all respects - it synchronizes new messages, and if I send emails it works fine.  The ONLY thing is to delete messages from my Inbox on the server when I use Mail to delete them or move them out of my Inbox to a local folder; It is not even move them to the folder items deleted on the server.  So, I get messages saying: my account is almost full, and I need to access my Outlook account on a web browser and manually remove the y of my Inbox.  Yes, I checked my account preferences and made sure "store the deleted messages on the server" is disabled.

    Can anyone help?  I use El Capitan with Mail 9.3 10.11.4.  I'm ready to tear my hair on it.

    You drag the message out of the Exchange Inbox to records the "on my Mac"?

    If so, you copy the message.

    To move...

    • Use the move icon to move the message
    • Use the command key.

    This will force a move instead of a copy. It works exactly as to put them into files in the Finder — between different servers (and move from an Exchange or an IMAP folder to a local folder moves between server) the file/email is copied by default.

    Cmd-drag forces a shot instead. Dragging between different folders on the same server goes by default, but a copy can be forced by holding down the Option key when you drag.

  • Desktop HP Pavilion 550-A17C: two monitors with desktop HP Pavilion 550-A17C? (Graphics, AMD Radeon R5)

    Hello. My computer is a HP Pavilion Desktop 550 - A17C with AMD Radeon R5 (integrated) graphics card. Can he take charge of two monitors? I did everything I can think of, including searching the Internet for a number of hours for solutions. For the life of me I can't get the computer to detect the second monitor, when I have two connected monitors.

    I connect the main monitor with a VGA cable and the second with a DVI cable. The computer only has a VGA connector and a DVI connector. There is no HDMI port (serioulsly and I bought this computer as three months previously, as a refurb...) (Lol).

    What I want to do, is extend the display. My hardware is unable to conduct two screens? A USB video adapter solve the problem?

  • Tecra S4: cannot switch automatically to an external monitor with APR 3 +.

    Hello

    I used a Tecra S4 (with Windows XP Prof.) with monitor 3 + and with an external 19 "Advanced Port Replicator. If I connect my laptop with the Port Replicator, it will automatically switch to the external display. I have to use the function "FN" to move."

    I signed up the external monitor with "use this device as the primary monitor.

  • Qosmio X 500 - 13R: picture on external monitor with resolution 2560 x 1440 is blurred

    Hi all

    I have a computer laptop X 500 - 13R Toshiba Qosmio, although 2 years, still a great piece of hardware.

    I just bought a new monitor 27 "U2713HM which supports a resolution of 2560 x 1440.

    Computer video card notebook (GTX 460 m) supports a resolution higher than through a digital connection, so I used a HDMI cable to connect.

    Via Control Panel Nvidia, I could create a custom resolution, but the image is not clear / is blurred.
    It is readable, but it's just not everything.

    Tried with HDMI 1.4, without success.
    I volunteered to connect through Dual Link DVI cable, but the phone doesn't have a DVI connector, and I doubt the adapter will help.

    Anyone has a suggestion how to fix this problem?

    Thank you.

    I would like to share my experience using an external monitor with a HDMI cable.
    My monitor supports both HDMI and DVI port.
    First of all, I plugged my laptop on the external monitor using a HDMI cable to HDMI.
    But the fonts and the picture was not clear. I used the resolution 1920 x 1080

    Then I went to the DVI port. I plugged the laptop s HDMI port to monitor s port DVI (HDMI/DVI cable) and that solved my problem.
