You can use old iMac as a monitor for mini Mac

You can use 2008 iMac as a monitor for mini Mac?

No, because the iMac of 2008 not display entered or supported to do so.

See > use your iMac as a display with the target - Apple Support Display Mode

You can use a connection network and something like ScreenRecycler

See > https://www.screenrecycler.com/ScreenRecycler.html

However, the best bet is to use a regular external monitor with the Mac Mini.

  • want to use 24 "iMac as a monitor with my mac book Pro but the iMac doesn't have a port thunderbolt

    Can I connect my iMac 24 "2.16Intel Core 2 Duo with single firewire ports and use it as a monitor with my MacBook Pro (thunderbolt port)? Thank you very much.

    EDIT: What year is your iMac? See if your iMac is supported by the target Display Mode using the link below. If your iMac, you can use a port Mini screen Mini display port cabe using your iMac on your MacBook Pro screen. I hope this helps!

  • You can use the style of reference R1C1 for SpreadsheetSetCellFormula

    I'm setting up a spreadsheet where I want the sum of some columns appear at the end of the line.  The problem is that the number of columns can vary according to when the report is run.

    A function SpreadsheetSetCellFormula is written like this for summing columns B through D and placing the function in column 5 (E).

    < CFSET curRow = 2 >

    < CFSET curCol = 5 >

    < CFSET SpreadsheetSetCellFormula (sObjRollUp, "SUM(B2:D2)", curCol, curRow) >

    But what happens if there are 10 columns, or 15 columns?

    I tried and it doesn't work with the R1C1 reference style:

    < CFSET SpreadsheetSetCellFormula (sObjRollUp, "SUM (#curRow #C #curCol R - 4 #: R #curRow #C #curCol - 1 #)", news line, curCol ") >

    But that generates an Excel error.

    I know (in Excel), if I turn R1C1 reference I can reference range a sum like this: = SUM(R6C2:R6C3), but if the R1C1 reference is disabled, this feature will not work.

    If a couple of questions.

    (1) is there a CF or Excel function to get the value of the 'LETTER' of a numeric column value (remember column, AA, AB, etc.).

    OR

    (2) is it possible CF to turn R1C1 making reference to the spreadsheet object.

    I could be wrong, but I don't think that CF supports the R1C1 style.  However, you can use the underlying classes POI to convert a number of columns in a letter. Just be aware POI expects the index column to base zero, not one.

    example of generating all the letters in column

    util = createObject ("java", "org.apache.poi.ss.util.CellReference");

    for (col = 1; col<= 256;="" col++)="">

    Note: the numbers of the columns are zero-based (0)!

    colLetter = util.convertNumToColString (col - 1);

    WriteOutput ("R1C1 = [#col #] Alpha = [#colLetter #]")
    " );

    }

  • Can I use my 5K iMac as a monitor for the Mac Pro?

    I'm so curious because I really need speed for Final Cut, but for the Mac Pro, you must separately buy things (monitors, keyboards, mouse). For the iMac, it is included, but he really loves * that the Mac Pro has this old crush which is very pixelated to 82ppi, compared to the iMac not expensive 21.5 "without Retina display, it is equal to 102ppi. My iMac 27 "is 5K also, and the iMac is 218ppi. I want a high resolution to get the best view possible, but I can't in the Mac Pro. I would like also to the screen have a built-in webcam and speakers similarly.

    Only through the screen which two computers sharing work normally.

  • my USB won't open it says "you must format the disk hard until you can use it"

    Hello
    I have my brand DANE ELEC 16 GB USB key was the work properly. I took it off wile, he played the song, and since then, I have try to open a dialog box open and said you need to format the hard disk: X before you can use I can't format it because I'll lose my data fields, important documents of songs picters.
    If anyone can help me with it please
    Thank you in advance.

    Because you don't properly stop the disc before removing it, you burned her FAT (File Allocation Table that each player has). Your files are still there, but they can only be read by the 'normal' software... think of a hard drive as a subdivision... formatting a disk (any drive) is like the ranking of all sectors which will be the roads and determine where the accommodation structures (folders) can be placed. When a fat gets grilled, all the rankings and roads disappeared suddenly... but the housing is still there. Recovery software puts the ranking and roads back.

    Is there a software that I used to be called "Rescue" that worked fine on the old disk to FAT32. Costs $60 but it was cheaper than $1000 than for a customer who had sprayed a server hard drive (and replaced their backup before calling me, long story, lesson learned client and I learned the value of disaster planning... but I digress), I was at another time.

    Good luck!! Let us know what you find / use / work... so that you can save we / you... because it will never happen.

  • You can use version for VM Windows OEM license

    1. can I use OEM version for virtual machine window.

    2 in case I created a new copy and removed the old how it will affect license.
    3. If I want to create a new virtual machine by throwing an old can I use same OEM license
    Thanks in advance

    Yes, you can use the OEM System Builder License in a virtual machine.

    In what concerns by deleting and recreating a VM, I don't know to be honest, given the virtual machine itself is considered to be a computer and to move the license to a new virtual machine would be considered in the eyes of the LICENSE as another machine.

    What I suggest do you after installing Windows 7 OEM in a virtual machine and activate it, you must create a snap shot of your active install. When you are ready to throw a virtual machine just back to the snapshop so it will look like new.

    You can use my Mac with iOS

    Hello ifixer2,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    No, you need two or more Mac computers that meet the following requirements to use Back to My Mac:

    What you'll need

    To configure and use Back to My Mac, you need these things:

    • Two or more Mac computers that use the same account iCloud on OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later version.
    • A Terminal supported access AirPort (AirPort Extreme, AirPort Express or AirPort Time Capsule) or other Internet router that supports UPnP or NAT - PMP protocol, with the latest firmware available. AirPort base stations require version of firmware 7.6.1 or later for Back to My Mac.
    • Utility airPort 6.3 or later.
    • For screen sharing, a 300 Kbits/s-or-more rapid, bidirectional (high-low) Internet connection between computers. You may be able to use with slower connections to share files. If file sharing doesn't work as you think, check your settings and connections.
    • A firewall that allows remote connections. Some firewalls may prevent some back to my Mac connections. For example, when you're at home, don't maybe not able to connect you to your Mac at work. But when you're at work, you might be able to connect to your Mac at home. If you are not sure if the firewall will allow the back to my Mac connections, check with the network administrator for your organization.

    If you want to use an AirPort Extreme or airport Time Capsule to access files on a hard drive external, you need a Mac OS extended (journaled) formatted USB hard drive. When you use with Back to My Mac, your hard drive is displayed as the base under shared in the sidebar station Finder.

    Set up and use Back to My Mac

    Take care.

  • You can use an external hard drive with the Mac Mini?

    I've seen videos that say that we cannot increase the ram on a min of Mac, but I'm curious if this works like an ordinary computer, if we can attach an external hard drive to store some of the memory to free up space. Sorry if this is something stupid just need to know what I can do with it.

    You can use an external hard drive to boot and run with any Mac. Its not going to improve or replace your ram. If you use a mechanical hard drive in any Mac then help and boot from an external drive, especially if it's a SSD will be significantly faster.
