Mac Mini :: CD / DVD Not Recognized Or Opened

Dec 26, 2009

I cannot get my mini mac to recognize a cd or dvd which I created with my Vaio laptop (Windows Vista). The video was in the window maker and quicktime format. The disc utility tells me a disc is in the harddrive, but I cannot open ,repair etc. I am trying to add video from a Panasonic camera to an imovie project.

Mac Mini :: Opened My New Mac Mini - Some Info?

Mar 3, 2009

The CPU is not socketed. It can not be changed.

There is a little, what appears to be, temperature sensor on the front of the hard drive. If you change your hard drive, you'll have to remove this and stick it on the new hard drive. It's just stuck on with some double sided tape.

Also confirmed - upgrade from 1GB to 2GB and I now get 256MB VRAM.

3DMark2006 v1.10 scores:

Mac Mini 2.0ghz 1GB RAM - Single 1GB DIMM (128MB VRAM)
3DMarks : 1502
SM2.0 : 525

Mac Mini :: USB Keyboard Not Recognized If Plugged In On Startup

May 9, 2012

I'm using a Dynex USB keyboard with the newest version of the Mac Mini (as of May 2012) and if the keyboard is already plugged in when the Mini is powered on, it's not recognized. If I unpug it after the Mini has been powered on and plug it back in, it starts to work. How do I fix this? Note that I am also using a Logitech USB mouse and it works properly.

Mac Mini :: Unable To Get Dual Displays / Using Mini DVI And Mini DisplayPorts

Sep 12, 2010

I have an Early 2009 Mac Mini with Mini DVI and Mini DisplayPort. And I have two 1080p HDTVs. The Mac Mini is capable of dual display, and I've gotten it to work before, so the issue is not the TV or Mac. And I have tried both Mirroring and No Mirroring.

I got a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter (#5311) and a Mini-DVI to HDMI Adapter (#4852) both from MonoPrice. And for some reason I can't get the Mac Mini to dual display, it's only one or the other.

Before I had a Mini Displayport Male and USB Male AUDIO to HDMI Female Converting Adapter (#5969) and I got video on both HDTVs, but not audio at the same time b/c one was USB and one was TOSLINK.

I'm not sure why I can't get video on both monitors. Any help?

Mac Mini :: How To Conncet HDTV Using Mini Display Port Or Mini Dvi?

Apr 6, 2009

I need to connect my 09' Mac Mini to my Yamaha RX-V2700 receiver which outputs to my Sony XBR HDTV. I know the mini has both mini-dvi to dvi and mini-dp to dvi or hdmi available via adapters. I was thinking to go with option 1 however I was wondering what is your opinions? Is mini-display port better over mini-dvi or are they the same? Audio will be carried over optical toslink.

Option 1:
Using mini-dvi adapter to dvi: Connect Dvi-Hdmi cable to receiver and output audio with toslink adapter.

Option 2:
Using mini-dp adapter to dvi or hdmi: Connect Dvi-Hdmi cable to receiver and output audio with toslink adapter.

OS X :: Trash Is In Use / Cannot Be Opened

Feb 17, 2010

I was about to lose my mind.A couple of days ago I found that I couldn't empty my trash.I kept getting the error message in the title of this post.I have a program called "Smart Trash"...nope.I tried "Super Empty Trash"...nope.I ran some terminal commands followed by a Repair Disk Permissions.Option-Empty...nope.I booted VMWare Fusion / XP, and did a CHKDSK.I tried creating an empty folder and dragging the files (17 of them) into the empty folder, then deleting the empty folder, but my computer wouldn't let me pull the files out of the trash and move them to the new folder.I put the files into A Better Finder Rename and tried to rename them.Then, I did something that you'd never think would solve the problem, but for some reason it did.

I opened up the trash, did a Cmd-A to select all, then a Cmd-I to find out how (collectively) big all of these files were and when my Mac tried to access the files to see their size, they disappeared.
I have no idea why that was the thing that worked, but my Trash is empty and the paper in my trash icon is gone.Just thought I'd share this because I know there are others out there that have tried everything as well. I'm not promising this will work for you, but what have you got to lose, right?

OS X :: Last Opened Date Seems Inaccurate

Jul 26, 2008

Whenever I'm searching for a file and I use 'last opened date' as one of the options, it presents files that I know I didn't open within that timeframe (and I'm the only user here) as well as not including files I know I opened.

Any ideas? I don't know if something indexing my files is causing this, I do use Launchbar, but I can't imagine that's it?

I sold my friends my eMac, and he is having a problem with Warcraft 3. Now, I own it too, and have reinstalled it and downloaded patch on the machine so many times over the years. Now, when he installs the latest patch, it says TFT could not be opened. Could using my discs fix the problem? Regular Warcraft 3 still works after patched.

MacBook Pro :: Just Opened MBP - Already Scratched?

Apr 21, 2010

I just opened my MBP and I found this black gunk on parts of it... it wiped off pretty easily but on the top of it there's one small scratch that isn't going away. Should I worry about this? I didn't even touch it and it had a scratch on it. It's very small but it still really bugs me. It just bugs me that I just turned it on and there's already a scratch.

OS X :: Finder Cannot Be Opened -10810

May 8, 2010

Lately I've been getting this error more and more often.

The application Finder can't be opened.-10810

I did some searching, and the only info I could find was for other applications, but nothing on Finder.

I get it from a fresh restart, with only Safari and iStat Menus running. Whatever is causing it is also hammering the processor to 100%. It's taken me almost 5 minutes just to type out this thread.

I'm on a 1st gen. MacBook Air, running Snow Leopard, fully up to date.

Am I looking at a fresh install?

Applications :: ITunes 10 Crashes When Opened

Sep 1, 2010

It won't open, at all, I've deleted every plist associated with iTunes, the cache, everything. It will only open if I do it manually through Terminal and that isn't perfect in my opinion. I have also downloaded it twice and installed it twice, same thing happens. They've pulled iTunes 10 from the download page.

MacBook :: Opened Up My A1181 To Change The Fan

Sep 15, 2010

I noticed 1 of the 2 wires wasn't connected to the wi-fi card. Wireless runs perfectly, and everything else seems to work regardless.

It was the wire on the left that wasn't connected.

Also, I love how the A1181 I bought when Apple first announced the WhiteBook still runs fast and smooth and is so easily self-serviced. Can't say that about any PC laptop.

Jan 5, 2009

Have a Blackbook and a Unibody Pro on the same network. With the unibody, I can see the place files in the Blackbook's Drop Box, but when I go to open the newly-placed file in the Blackbook's Drop Box, I get a error message saying the file "is used by Mac OS X and cannot be opened".

Applications :: New Tab Opened With Safari Top Sites

Sep 9, 2009

Has anybody been having problems with Safari's new Top Sites feature? I've had Safari 4 since the day it came out on public beta, and this feature hasn't seemed to get any better. I seriously dread having to open a new tab, because it automatically opens the awful top sites list. I close my eyes and cross my fingers and pray that I don't get the beachball of death for anywhere from 10-20 seconds. Sometimes it works quickly, especially if I keep testing it over and over. It pretty much just displays a visual of the bookmarks that I already have displayed going across the top of my screen, and I usually just click on the bookmark instead of having to hunt down the page and click on it.
