  That is right. The requires iTunes 12.3.3 and in order to get it, you will need to update OS X to El Capitan. That's how Apple has created for better or worse, I'm sorry.

• LaCie d2 Thunderbolt 2 incompatible drive with Mac mini?

  Hi all-

  Well, I bought a new LaCie d2 Thunderbolt 2 3 TB Lord drive for use with my mac min (mid 2011).  I've used several external drives Seagate Thudnerbolt (1) with the mini (with my monitor beyond chain) without problem.  However when I stop upacked the new LaCie, and plugged my mini and starting chaos ensued.  I have a strong internal drive satate and starting in about 12 seconds.  With the LaCie, it takes nearly a minute and a half.  Then, when the pointer moves the mouse, clicking on does nothing.  After 14 minutes click finally takes effect and seems to operate normally afterwards.

  I closed and returned to my old Seagate Thunderbolt 1 drive and it works fine.  I swapped the cables thunderbolt and used another well-known cable.  I had command of cable on the Thunderbolt of LaCie ports.  I disconnected the monitor of the Thudnerbolt chain and run the drive only.  All to nothing does not.  The LaCie is supposed to be good on system 10.6.8 and later, I am running 10.7.5.

  Anyone know of problems with the current crop of drives LaCie Tunderbolt with Mac mini?  Thanks - Randy

• Apple TV with Mac Mini question

  I'm looking into getting an older Mac mini to use as a server for my 4th generation, Apple TV, when I went with my laptop.  I understand that El Captain can be installed in a Mac Mini it's early 2009 or earlier, but since I don't use it as a computer I'm not to care of that!  I was wondering if anyone new how old of a Mac Mini, I could get and have even the Apple TV to be able to see the Mac mini as a server with my media in the iTunes library.  I didn't know that if this type of connection would be lost forever, but wanted to make sure before you buy.  I guess the Min Mac must have at least an Intel processor.

  Thanks in advance!

• Scan does not work with Mac Mini Maverick

  Just got a new Mac Mini Maverick.  While the printer (HP Officejet 4500 Wireless) works very well, the scanner does not at all. The installer downloaded the appropriate driver, but the scanner is disabled. Does anyone else have this problem?

  Hello Chata3,

  Welcome to the forums,

  I understand that you are unable to scan from your wireless Officejet 4500 to your Mac with the Mavericks.

  There is no comprehensive driver features available for this model of printer with the Mavericks, which is probably the reason why you are facing this problem. There are, however, bypass the options for you to scan.

  See this link and see under 'How to scan with the Apple Software Update driver'? :

• Magic keyboard doesn't work don't perfectly with Mac-mini mid 2011

  I am running the latest version of El Capitan (OS 10.11)

  The system version:	OS X 10.11 (15A279b)
  Kernel version:	Darwin 15.0.0

  Apple Bluetooth software:

  4.4.0f4 16320

  These correspond to the requirements of Magic Keyboard (Mac computer compatible Bluetooth with v10.11 OS X or later) according to Apple documentation official http://www.apple.com/shop/product/MLA22LL/A/magic-keyboard-us-english

  If I followed the instructions to connect the keyboard up via Thunderbolt, the keyboard works partially. I can type via Bluetooth.

  However, I can't use the volume buttons to control the sound. When I try to assign or reassign the buttons, I discovered that I can't 'see' the keyboard in Control Panel.

  So, I find it very strange and of course disappointing. I can use Bluetooth, but not make the best use of the characteristics of the material. So sorry to say this, but it feels more like Linux where drivers regularly can make full use of the material and do not like Apple where it should all be integrated from top to bottom.

  The ideas or support would be appreciated.

  Ray

  PS I have the same problem with the new Magic Trackpad. So it's more than 200 euros for the minimum functions

  If I followed the instructions to connect the keyboard up via Thunderbolt,

  It be USB to lightning, Thunderbolt.

  Check that this block is not checked. You can also try to check it out and then unchecking it.

  

  PS You should also upgrade to the current version of El Capitan, 10.11.2, build 15 c 50. Updates cover a lot of previous bugs and problems. "15A279b" is not the latest version.

• Can't open PDFs og Illustrator in PS CC 2015.1 "Could not complete your request because of a disk error."

  With version 2015.1, I ran into problems of handling certain types of files Photoshop used to be able to open.

  When I try, I get an error message: could not complete your request because of a disk error.

  (Mac, OSX El Capitan, Photoshop CC 2015.1, lots of space, a lot of RAM available)

  Is no longer works and causes the error message:

  Open a .ai or .pdf either from the file inside the og of Photoshop in the command-click context menu in the finder.

  By dragging a file .ai or .pdf from a window in the finder in the Photoshop workspace empty.

  It works (but that's really not what I need for a flow of work):

  By dragging a file .ai or .pdf from a finder window in an existing Photoshop document window.

  How can this problem be solved?

  Best regards

  Kristian

  Hi k-Stockholm,.

  After you install the latest update for Photoshop, if you have not customized the application for your use, then you can try reset the Photoshop preferences to default.

  Steps to follow:

  To re-create the Photoshop preferences files, start the application while pressing Ctrl + Alt + Shift (Windows) or command + Option + shift (Mac OS). Then, click Yes to the message, "Delete the Adobe Photoshop settings file?"

  Let us know if that helps.

  Kind regards

• 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 :-(

• 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:

  • Samsung 850 Evo SSD
  • Cutting Ultra Slim 2.5 SATA to USB 3.0 aluminum hard drive external enclosure

  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!

• How to control a Mac mini with HDMI ports fries and lightning? (The rest is ok)

  Recently, a lightning strike fried video output (HDMI and lightning) ports on my Mac Mini end of 2012. As far as I know, the rest of the machine works fine. It's just blind. I can't have everyone working on this, but I don't want to throw a perfectly (well, almost perfectly) computer works.

  If I can get a control over the Mac Mini for a few days, I could set up as a dedicated time Machine or maybe even an iTunes or media Server. How can I achieve this?

  Configure the screen sharing on the Mac.

  To do this, you must have another recent Mac.

  You can start the problem Mac in target disk mode, connect the two Mac by FireWire or Thunderbolt, boot the Mac problem with button down T, boot the first Mac since the Mac HD problem and sharing Setup screen

  Alternatively, you can take the drive out of the Mac problem and start another Mac that and configure sharing screen.

  You can also get a USB video card and put in place by the target disk mode or by removing the similar disk for screen sharing

• With the help of Mac Mini like laptop?

  Hi guys,.

  Can I use a Mac Mini as a laptop? I mean go to work every day and carry it in my bag, and then connect to a screen. What I mean if a Mac Mini is of solid construction, built to withstand move it every day. The life of a portable device, haha.

  I just got a Mac Mini 2014, 1.4, 1 Tb Fusion Drive. Moreover, it's my first time with the merger in car. I don't know if they are not intended to transport around or as solid as any player.

  Any ideas?

  See you soon,.

  Carry a Mac Mini is really not unlike a laptop computer with regards to damage. Don't resist not to serious abuse, a rotating hard disk is probably the weakest regarding damage due to jostling normal.

• Cloning of a Mac mini with application Server

  We bought a condo in Florida and I want to my server it doubles. I use Mac mini (2 different models) with 2 drives external (one for Time Machine backups) and one for data.

  What is the best way to install the Apple Server on Florida related to the Mac mini so I don't have to install it from scratch?

  Yesterday I tried (in vain) to use the Migration Wizard to move all of my Mac mini to the Florida-bound one. Can I use 3rd party app "Carbon Copy Cloner" instead?

  Any recommendations on how to configure the 2nd server would be appreciated.

  The replication server is a relatively trivial process and can be accomplished by using disk utility.  However, the source drive and the destination drive should not be active at the time of cloning.  For example, you have Master Mini and you want to be replicated on Mini replica.  The best way to do it with the included tools must start Master Mini from another disk that contains an operating system to start.  Then start the Mini replica in target disk mode and connect it to the Mini Master (already started from another drive).  Disk utility to clone the Master disk on the drive of replica.

  Ah, but cloning is the easy part.  The question I have for you is that you really want an exact replica?  The reason why I ask, is that your current server should have a name and a fully qualified domain name.  It's server.pauljohnson.com and it has a 10.0.0.10 IP address.  If you clone the device to another Mac, there will also be a name of server.pauljohnson.com and it has a 10.0.0.10 IP.  If two of your networks are configured on the 10.0.0.0/24 subnet then you won't be able to connect to each other.  Similarly, if you depend on external access to devices and must comply with DNS, then you can only point to one of the servers, unless you have a form of installation program to distribute the load between the two locations of load balancing.

  What services run you on the servers other than the Server Time Machine?  Do you intend to have a VPN tunnel between the two institutions?  If you use Open Directory, and DNS, you can configure master and replicas of the two services.  Of course, this should only be done with a tunnel VPN in place I would not recommend exposing these services to the internet.

  Then await you replicate data also?

  Start with a list of services and a list of expectations about how you want client machines work when moving from one place to another.
