• Better conservation to use for the Mac Mini Server

  Hi all

  I have a Mac Mini, I want to start using a server around the House. Manage other Macs around the House, centralized Time Machine and are also used as a file server for both Windows I have machines.

  Therefore, a Mac Mini with 500 GB of storage, so I obviously need to add much more. Ideally, I'd like to build a 5 4 Bay RAID system but it is there, I seem to be failing and need help. I seem to have 3 options - stroke of lightning, USB, or NAS.

  Love at first sight seems to be too much and a lot of people say he exaggerated in any case for a home installation

  NAS seems to be the most cost-effective way, but then negates the point of the Mac server still?

  USB looks good, but I can't find any decent USB enclosures, are there who would recommend?

  Thanks in advance

  Mike

  Unfortunately, many would say that Macs are not appropriate to use as real servers for businesses, however some do and for small businesses, they are perfectly usable. Obviously in a situation of host concern the most appropriate a Mac as a server is completely different.

  While the most common choice for the storage of a Mac server these days would be an external RAID Thunderbolt for example the promised Pegasus R4 and R6 lines, I agree for a location that a NAS solution may be more appropriate.

  A NAS can act as a universal file for Mac and Windows PC server, should not let the Mac on all the time, and most NAS devices support also act as a Time Machine backup server. However, some people say that based NAS servers Time Machine are not reliable enough and you may use a real solution of Apple as a Capsule or a Mac running Server.app and sharing a drive as a destination of Time Machine.

  I agree somewhat that NAS based Time Machine systems will not be as reliable as a real Apple one, but I'd also probably say that they are not either completely useless. For example, I use a NetGear ReadyNAS as a system of Time Machine and I'm pretty happy with it.

  In addition, for external storage, there are additional options.

  • USB, as you said
  • FireWire is always possible even if you suddenly need lightning to FireWire adapter, you can even get a FireWire RAID solution
  • Love at first sight as the promised Pegasus system I mentioned
  • NAS - you can connect to it via NFS and "re - share" via AFP via the Mac server
  • iSCSI Ethernet to a NAS system, could be directly at a customer or could be're-shared' via AFP
  • Fiber Channel to aid suddenly in love with FDDI card and then have a configuration Fibre Channel SAN - very expensive and often used by video editors
  • Maybe a bolt of lightning to eSATA adapter, then an eSATA storage solution

• 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.

• 2012 the Mac Mini has sluggish 5 GHz Wi - Fi

  OK, this is weird.

  Suddenly, my Mac mini is to have WiFi connections intermittently slow on the 5 GHz band, a router Linksys WRT-1900AC.

  I have a 105 MB Comcast connection, and usually tests Speedtest.net Mini cede passage on 100 Mbps results, usually in the 120 Mbps.

  This morning, I started having intermittent slowness. Sometimes I would grind to a halt, or there would be a long time to connect to a website. Speedtest pings during these episodes would be too high that 990 - in general, they are about 14 ms.

  The 2.4 GHz connection, which generally gives me a slower rate in the range of 50 Mbps, is fine. The only issues I see are at 5 GHz, where I have the chance to get a speed in the range of 30 to 50 Mbps.

  All other devices - iPads, iPhones, MacBook Pro, 4th-gen Apple TV, Microsoft Surface Pro 4 - connect at 5 GHz very well. I get my gears zippy on other devices. Just not the Mini.

  I rebooted the router and the modem. I emptied the cache DNS on the Mini. I deleted the Linksys SSD in Network preferences then reconnected. I removed the Mac Mini map of the network of the Linksys firmware and restored. So far, nothing works.

  One thing to note: a few weeks ago, I installed a couple of SSD in the Mini, replacing a single stock of HARD drive. Which is to remove the antenna plate (and everything else inside the Mini). But I re-assembled very well, and it has been working fine since then. I think that if there is a problem with the antenna, it would affect the 2.4 GHz band, too.

  Also, we moved into a new apartment in the same complex, taking our Comcast service with us. It worked fine when I put in place Sunday and worked a lot since then. But the Mini is in a new location on the block.

  Any suggestions for what to do next?

  If possible, please connect to the router with Ethernet and see if there is an improvement.

• Slim drive ejected from the Mac Mini

  I have a Mac Mini running El Capitan.

  My external drive keeps a slim, used only for the back upward, Gdrive be ejected without any input from me. He has a lot of storage space.

  Any thoughts?

  Try a different USB port on the Mac.

  Try another USB between the Mac and the G-Drive cable.

  Then if it is still bad ejection, contact the Support of G Techonolgy.

• 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.

  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)

• 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

• 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!

• Can I connect a non-apple for my mac mini screen

  How to connect a non-apple for my mac mini screen?

  1. see #2.

  2. it depends on what type of cable the monitor has and the Mac mini ports; It is not a difference between an Apple and a monitor no Apple for this purpose. A Mini DisplayPort adapter allows to connect an older display until a Thunderbolt port.

• 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 :-(
