• I upgraded to MacOS Sierra recently, since then, my Mac Mini needs to strat befor 5 times actually implemented, why?

  Mac Mini (mid-2011), 2.5 GHz mid-range Core i5, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, 256 GB Solid State Drive Storage

  10.12 MacOS

  I upgraded to MacOS Sierra recently, since then, my Mac Mini must start 5 times before it actually starts.

  It starts and restarts in the middle of the boot process, 4 times.

  Why?

  I have experienced a similar curiosity, but often with messing around on a Linux partition. I do not have a definitive answer for you, but check on this thread (MacBook Pro will restart several times during the boot process) and maybe here further (oots http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/88213/how-to-find-cause-of-repeated-reb)

  I hope this helps!

  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.

  Graphics Intel HD Graphics 3000 384

  I love this Mac Mini alternative desktop to my new MacBook Pro. I won't unless I absolutely have to replace it. It works but it is slow and is taunting me with the beach of rotation ball. I wonder what I can do for $100 or two to speed up a bit? Recommendations are welcome!

  upgrade memory if it supports

  otherwise an SSD

  your program really are not very dependent on the cpu or video card dependent you can change them both.

• Upgrade hard drive Mac Mini end of 2012.

  I7 clocked at 2.6 ghz 16 GB ram...

  Fusion car again, noted that, once 128 GB ssd was that full, there was no real advantage to the merger. I decided (possible foolishly) to do an upgrade.

  Installed 500 GB Samsung evo 850 ssd, wd 1 TB of storage. (no merge)

  Set up own of El Capitan with bootable USB drive. Everything is good so far except noticed mini heater, exhaust fan works not!

  take off cover, plug verified, it was well set, leading fan and he continued running.

  Everything seemed so finished installation and got replacement as precautionary measure fan and equipped.

  More than three weeks a couple of other strange events, two or three times at the start, progress bar would get to halfway, empty display outside and nothing more occur. Force shutdown, reboot and everything ok again.

  The fan has stopped when the mini went to sleep once or twice, reboot has solved sometimes. Reset the PRAM again.

  Over the past three days several times, fan stopped at startup, reset the SMC seems to fix the problem. All connectors are good. I have followed with Imenus and more recently THPro, when the fan stops it is reported to be clocked at 650 RPM!

  I searched this problem, a person finds that remove the original drive on mac mini stopped fan altogether, substituting the original 'apple drive"and and the fan works fine! that makes no sense to me, but the Samsung in car that belonged the 128 GB ssd my original merger was coded firmware to it was "Apple."

  The Evo 850 does not report temperature through the chip, I don't see that this would lead to good questions?

  Don't know where I'm going with this, I could replace the original 'Apple readers' and see what is going on, at least I could forget a possible crude oil on a fire. Should I reinstall and do a fusion drive (can't see that it would make a difference)

  I took everything public static precautions, taken my time replace the disks and it went smoothly without a hitch...

  If anyone can suggest anything, I would be very grateful.

  Sorry, this post is so long!

• an early 2008 mac mini and want to know what OSX iI can be upgraded to.

  I have an early 2008 mac mini, model A1283 and the OS x 10.6.8.  Is there an OSX I can pass safely to this machine?

  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.

  Upgrade to El Capitan

  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.

  My applications are compatible?

  See table of application - RoaringApps compatibility

  
  

  Upgrade to Lion

  If your computer does not meet the requirements to install the Mavericks, 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.

  I suggest that stick you with Snow Leopard because the Lion is a bit a dog. If you really need to upgrade over Snow Leopard, then you need a new computer.

• I buy a new 2015 mac mini with El Capitan.  I currently have a 2013 mac mini with Mountain Lion.  It would benefit me to upgrade my 2013 to El Capitan, before migrating my information to my mac mini to 2015?  Thanks in advance!

  Yes, it is better to update the old Mac EC.

  Make sure that you back up the old Mac before the upgrade.

  Note the application of some may require updated to work with CBS. To check see it:

  Also, some devices may require updated drivers and for some devices such drivers do not exist.

• I use Foxfire that my server with my Mac 'Mini' but you can not download the Foxfire current upgrade.

  Several months ago, I bought the Mac Mini desktop computer and use Foxfire as my server. I wonder constantly update my Foxfire, but am not allowed to connect to the Foxfire server even if I'm already connected. What is my solution?

  If he has problems with the update or the permissions then simpler is to download the full version and trash the version currently installed to do a clean install of the new version.

  Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the file on the desktop disk image (dmg)

• Upgrading memory on Mac Mini (mid-2111)

  Following the instructions, I bought a slot (8 GB) memory.  I was told to just replace one of the existing homes (1 GB) and leaving the other in place, for a total of (9 GB).  After reading the information contained in my Mac mini booklet: "your Mac mini has two memory slots in which you can install a pair of memory from 1 GB, 2 GB or 4 GB, for a maximum of 8 GB of memory.  For best performance, do not mix the modules of different sizes; always install two identical memory modules. "I know that this seems to answer my question, but I called the back store, and they told me it was OK install a slot of 8 GB.  Should I return the 8GB and buy two slots of 4 GB for best results, or it's not important.  I was also told it's a big savings to buy a 8 GB on two of the 4 GB of memory.   I did not open the package again.  I was also told I could return it if it does not work, just for the package of 4 GB of memory.  I asked how do I know if I had a problem and I was told that my computer just does not start up if it's a question. Thank you for your help.

  More RAM always trumps any pair and it will work fine.

  FWIW my end of 2012 has worked on 10 GB during the last 3 years with no problems.
