OS is erased on Intel Mac Mini 4 Solos (2006)
Hello:
-1-
I bought 4 Intel mac mini solo on Ebay from a seller with more than 300 sales and a reputation for 100%.
-2-
The Macs were pulled from a working environment and sold in working order, but one with a CD ROM slot twisted and sold as parts.
The operating system had been erased on all four hard drives.
-3-
None of the Mac started (i.e. played the startup chime) when connected to power adapters 100 W or an adapter to power 85 W and pressing the power button.
-4-
The keyboard and mouse have been non-responsive to startup shortcuts:
-STROLLER -: command, Option, P, and R keys
-B - Safe mode: command and S keys
C - Boot from CD room: control and C keys
-5-
I opened a mac mini and replaced the PRAM Battery, reset the RAM and removed the hard drive.
The hard drive has already been logged, but had no content.
I also reformatted the hard drive with an iMac 2010 with four partitions:
-1-5 start disk FAT 32 concerts and copied an image of a live installation of spin (LXDE) fedora linux light
-2-2 GB of swap disk FAT 32
-3-15 start Mac gig log disk
4 - disk storage of data 37 gigas
-6-
The Mac does not start with a carillon.
-7-
I could not the mac to respond to the insertion of a disc to install OS X (10.5.6) black and a shortcut of command and C. The black installation disc is recognized on my iMac with OS X 10.9 2010.
-8-
-A - because the mac mini have no operating system, will they start and chime?
-B-how to use the black OS X installation disc to install the hard drive?
-C-is I have to get the existing image of an OS X 10.5 install on an Intel mac mini solo and copy it to the hard drive?
D-is it possible to install OS X 10.5 with an installation disc 2011 Intel or Intel iMac mac mini 2010? Could I point the installation of an external hard drive and then mount the hard drive installed in the mac mini solo?
Thanks for your suggestions.
You should get a chime of starting with no BONES or even no disc.
Only the power light and remain lit?
All the sounds of the Mini?
On Mac computer startup tones - Apple Support
What adoptive parent of power do you use?
The only disks will install on the Mini are the original install (gray) discs that came with the Mini or retail (white). The original install disks of another model Mac will not work.
Macs Solo can go as high as Snow Leopard.
If the Mini shows life, you should be able to start the Mini in target disk Mode
The 2011 native Mini with Lion and no installation disc
The iMac 10.6.4 from 2010. If you fully updated on the iMac to 10.6.8 then you should be able to start on the Mini, but not before completely update. The iMac installation disc doesn't have the drivers for the Mini

If you do not meet the above, but respect what follows, then you can upgrade to El Capitan.
Upgrade to El Capitan
You can pass the Lion El Capitan or directly from Snow Leopard. El Capitan can be downloaded for FREE from the Mac App Store.
To upgrade to El Capitan, you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or installed Lion. Download El Capitan from the App Store. Sign in with your Apple ID. El Capitan is free. The file is big enough, more than 5 GB, allow it some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
Mac that can be upgraded to OS X El Capitan
1 iMac (mid-2007 or newer) - model identifier 7.1 or later
2 MacBook (late 2008 or early 2009 or newer aluminium) - model identifier 5.1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version
4 MacBook Air (late 2008 or newer)- model identifier 2.1 or later
5 mac mini (early 2009 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version
6 mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)- model identifier 3.1 or later version
7 Xserve (early 2009) - model identifier 3.1 or later version
To find the identifier of the model open system information in the Utilities folder. It is displayed in the Panel on the right.

Upgrade to Lion
If your computer does not meet requirements to install the above, it can still meet the specifications to install Lion.
You can buy Lion to the Apple store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus taxes. It's a download. You will receive an email with a redemption code that you then use on the Mac App Store for download Lion. Save a copy of this installer to your download folder because Setup deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion system requirements
1 mac with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2 GB of memory
3 OS X 10.6.6 or later (10.6.8) recommended
4. 7 GB of available space
5. certain features require an Apple ID; conditions apply.

Mac mini 2010 change or difficulty?
I have a mac mini 2010, put in extra RAM. During the ages erase and reinstall Captain el OS because the spinning wheel of dreaded. Whenever I try to start it, it takes forever and the spinning wheel occurs. I have to keep doing a STROLLER and it is a bit of the night Mare. I wonder whether to buy a new battery which someone suggested is causing problems, or to send in for repair to apple or simply decide its time to throw it out and buy a new mac mini. I invested in Logic Pro X and even pass on the mac mini and get it going is causing a lot of headaches. He got 8 GB, and it's a processor intel core duo 2.4 gigHertz 2. Difficulty or time to buy a new one? And worth the trip of a few hours to the apple the nearest store or send it to apple to see what they can do. One has had a similar experience? Thank you

The panic was apparently caused by the Realtek USB network device or its software. I suggest that you unplug the unit and then remove the software.
Any third party software that is not installed on the App Store or by drag-and - drop in the Applications folder and uninstall by drag - move to the trash, is a modification of the system.
Whenever you delete changes to the system, they must be eliminated completely, and the only way to do this is to use the uninstall tool, if any, provided by the developers, or follow their instructions. If the software has been removed incompletely, you may redownload or reinstall even to finish the job.
I never install modifications of the system myself, and except as stated in this comment, I do not know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find this information.
Here are some general guidelines to help you get started. Suppose you want to remove the so-called "BrickMyMac" (a hypothetical example). First of all, menu using the product, check if there is one, for instructions. Not finding here, look at the Web site, let's say www.brickmymac.com. (Maybe it's not the name real site, if necessary, search the Web for the name of the product). If you don't find anything on the Web site or in your search, contact the developer. While you are waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be a request here as "Uninstall BrickMyMac." If this is not the case, open "BrickMyMac.pkg" and look for an uninstall button. The uninstall program can also accessible by clicking on the button customize, when one exists.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Generally, you will need to restart the computer in order to perform an uninstall. Until you do this, there may be no effect, or the unpredictable effects.
If you can't remove the software in any other way, you will have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third party software, unless you're sure you know how to uninstall in the contrary case, it can create problems which are very difficult to solve.
Try to remove the complex system of changes by hunting for files by name, often will not work and can make the problem worse. The same goes for 'utilities' as the 'AppCleaner"designed to remove software.

How can I delete a partition on a Mac Mini (end of 2012)
Hello
I would like to know how I could erase a partition I did by mistake. My Mac is very low in memory and, of course, I as soon as I open some applications Mac starts to bug... I just did an installation fee and it's still going slowly...
When I try to do it with disk utility, it is impossible. I have a screen shot so that you could understand my problem more...
OS X is installed on Macintosh HD, it is the general principle.
I use a Mac Mini Server (end 2012) - processor: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7 - memory 4 GB with OS X El Capitan
In advance, thank's a lot

How do yo start to access disk utility?
You can not erase/format the partition that you started from.
I can't tell if you're trying to do.

Mac mini (late 2012) flashing - question mark folder recovery does not work
Hi all
earlier today, I upgraded my Mac mini (end 2012) to the latest version of macOS Sierra.
After 1 hour of use, I realized that many of my plugins FCPX were not working.
I contacted the developers, and they said does not update the plugins and they told me to go back to El Capitan.
I decided to listen to them and try to downgrade my OS.
I restarted the Mac and held down Cmd - R or something like that that took me to the disk utility screen.
Then I went down to dinner, and when I returned 30 minutes later my Mac had entered the sleep mode for some reason any.
I woke up the Mac and 40 seconds later the power went out for 5-10 minutes.
After the blackout, I restarted my Mac that took me to a black screen with a flashing question mark folder.
I followed some tutorials online (including how to enter get - and the recovery of internet mode), but after a while even restoration of the internet shows me the flashing question mark folder.
I don't know what to do.
And no - unfortunately I don't have a Time Machine backup.
But I have a backup with all my most important files.
Is it possible to force the Mac to reset itself or something like that?
Help, please.
Best regards
Filip

What happens exactly when you start Internet recovery
by pressing Command + Option + R at the start of the OS X Internet Recovery*.
and go to disk utility and repair the startup disk?
If repairable, the startup disk to format and install OSX via recovery. you install Mountain Lion or dependent Mavericks when the Mac was made. Then OSX you want.

What happened to Sierra Mac Mini mid-2010?
What happened to Sierra Mac Mini mid-2010? As a first step, I realized it was the lower end of the system requirements. Many citations on the support pages and anywhere on the web say "Mac Mini mid-2010 or newer." But now, after half a day struggling with the installation, I find that he must now be "mid-2011 or newer! Changed Whaaaa?

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!

Really slow Mac Mini on the first commissioning
I bought my Mac Mini because the old PC had an age to start up. Now, my Mac Mini is even worse. I also have an old portable (2010) I installed Windows 10 on, and it is much faster than my Mac! W10 is up and running on browser/email before Mac even gets to the user login page!
Advice on other posts, I ran EtreCheck and updated a printer with the HP software problem. Got sorted and it really helped. But its just as bad party, ran EtreCheck again, the results below, but while the Mac was still loading up, it's done intentionally to see if I can find what it keeps. There is nothing obvious in this, can we see something that miss me it please.
(Aware there are other posts like this but saw someone do an admonition to add their isses at the same post accusing them of 'thread-jacking')

I suggest you remove the Avast software according to the instructions of developers. You need anti-virus software on your Mac and often through other reports Avast here seems regarded as a cause of potential problems.
If you do remove it, restart the Mac and the test. If it makes any difference once Avast is removed, you can always reinstall it if you feel that you need (even if you haven't).

A Mac Mini with these specs to run the latest version of Garage Band?
Hi, I am planning to buy a Mac Mini opportunity. He's probably an outdated version of Garage Band, so I was wondering if she could handle the latest version with these specs:
Processor: 1, Intel core 2 duo 88GHz
Memory: 1 Gb 667 Mhz ddr2 sdram
No it can't do in its current state.
the latest version of Go need 10.11 and you don't have enough RAM to run the latest 3 versions of Mac OS X (10.11 only is available if you don't already have the other btw)
update your RAM
upgrade the operating system

Change the hard disk of 1.4 Ghz Mac Mini end of 2014
Good morning Apple community, so here's the problem: I had a voltage breakdown because via the USB port of an EPSON LX - 300 printer, at present when the USB and the Mac Mini contact, ventilation Mac shutoff valve and after a few tries to do turn it finally do. But I see that a gray folder appears with an exclamation mark, then, with my other mac I download OS X El Capitan and do a Booteable USB, after that I enter the utilities disk and found that the "Macintosh HD" was not there and 2 USB 3.0 also didn't work. I picked up at a technical Service allow in my city and have told me that the HARD drive is broken and must be replaced, they say it could be replace by an of a 7200 rpm or 5400 RPM HARD drive RPM HARD drive, also says that couldn't put an SSD. I start research and found it is possible to put an SSD without problem. So my question is that's for sure, so I trust that an SSD will work with flawessly, and that I will also get a big performance improvement.
My Mac is:
Mac Mini end of 2014 1.4 Ghz 4 GB of RAM, Intel HD 5000 and a 500 GB drive HARD 5400 RPM death.
So, my best regards to the community and hope for a response.
I've been running my 2014 MM off an external SSD with USB 3.0 since the beginning of this year, after a bunch of trial and error; That's what I have:
Unfortunately, I don't have much advice to give you else make sure you have a proper forum for IT. From my experience, the bad speaker will make the difference in whether or not the Mac recognizes the SSD on initialize toward the top.
Good luck!

Opening 1 and implemented to date are installed on a MAC Pro: 2 x Dual-Core Intel Xeon 2.66 GHz. memory 5 GB
Software: MAC OS X Lion 10.7.5.
Now, I would like to install Aperture on a new Mac Mini: 2.6 GHz Intel Core i5. OS X: El Capitan.
All the series nor are available.
But the Mac Mini can't find software to install, even if the disk is in the drive.
Need your help to tackle this problem.
Thanks in advance
Opening 1 does not work on El Capitan. You need minimum Aperture 3 and which is no longer sold. Time for a new plan.
