SSD in new Mac Mini urgent help needed!


hi, in post telling story installing ssd (corsair force sata iii) in new mac mini. went except after cloning os lion new ssd kernel panic @ boot.

thought cloning went wrong re-installed os x lion apple servers (14 hours download), greeted morning same kernel panic "unable find driver platform: \"acpi\"

totally stuck without clue on how proceed. new mac. can't keep downloading , trying again because takes long. appreciated!!

(i upgraded ram 16gb @ same time of ssd upgrade, ram related error?)
 

first rule of change management: change 1 thing @ time , make sure okay after each change. way won't have try figure out change introduced might causing problem.

make sure ram seated , try boot again. if not work out ram upgrade easier of 2 changes undo. see if helps.

if still have same problem can try boot safe mode , run disk utility check file permissions, etc. see following safe mode:

MBA Keeps dropping Wifi


so mba keeps dropping wifi reason. happens on home network, , computer. i'm mac on network. every other wifi network fine, every other computer on network fine. many things can happen. it's connected, not able access internet (whether tells me there's no internet access or not). may drop wifi altogether, , refuse connect (see pic).

generally, if unplug router , plug in, it's good. works if restart computer. happens multiple times day. yesterday did know connect (restart router many times, restart mba), , nothing worked. magically worked.

how can stop happening? got notice comcast while ago saying bot called dns changer detected on 1 or more machines on network. i'm assuming can't me, right?

MacBook will not boot, stuck on grey screen


so friend asked me if fix 2008 penryn macbook. lcd screen broken , needed new keyboard, apparently booted , worked fine.

basically, took whole thing apart, following guide replace lcd screen on ifixit.com (http://www.ifixit.com/guide/installing-macbook-core-2-duo-lcd-panel/1498/1). replaced screen , lcd brackets realized 1 of airport antenna cords torn. bought new screw set because there many screws missing , read many of them crucial computer run (they needed complete circuit). replaced keyboard.

double-checked plugged in correctly (including ram). when turned on sounds chime , shows grey screen. there no apple logo or spinning wheel. realized computer requires plugged in @ times or shut down- don't believe issue before). tried every startup key combination , reset nvram.

after decided try boot snow leopard install disk (even though mac running leopard (10.5.x) , after tiger install disk , neither worked. don't have leopard disk, if crucial might able hands on one.

interestingly, startup keyboard shortcut garnered response, besides resetting nvram , ejecting install disks, when held option key- mouse appear.

@ point, need can get. i'm no expert @ , i'm terribly afraid have sell on ebay , buy computer.

in advance advice!
 

when mouse appears, list of bootable drives should appear here. 1 assume hard drive had died not listed, strange is, there no flashing questionmark when turn on no keys pressed. though double checked, there maby small thing somewhere not seated correctly.

Fans loudly whirring?


for reason no matter do, if open basic of 3d programs, appears if cpu can't handle it, , fans whirr ****ing crazy. makes me nervous play games minecraft , half life 2. have entry-level 2011 mac mini, 8gb of ram.
 

the intel processors used in macs designed automatically shut down prevent damage if overheat. cpu tjmax = 105c, gpu tjmax = 100c on i3, i5, i7 processors. (source: intel) if you're not using it, istat pro give accurate readings of temps , fan speeds, among other things.

unless there rare defect in mac, temps within normal operating range, considering workload being put on it. websites flash content, games , other multimedia apps put higher demand on cpu/gpu, generating more heat. normal. if you're putting high demands on system, such gaming or other multimedia tasks, expect temps rise , fans spin accordingly. it's mac doing job maintain temps within normal range.

quite normal mac become extremely hot touch during intensive operations. aluminum body transfers heat more other materials used in computer casings, feel heat more. doesn't indicate it's overheating , not harm computer hot touch.

fans on when mac on, spinning @ minimum of 2000 rpm (for mbps) or 1800 rpm (for mbas, mbs , minis). imacs have 3 fans minimum speeds in 800-1200 range. spin faster needed keep temps @ safe level. if they're spinning without increased heat, try resetting smc. (pram/nvram has nothing these issues, resetting not help.)

intake , exhaust vents in of computer near hinge on mac notebooks. imac vent slot on near top of computer. make sure vents remain unblocked allow computer perform @ best.

is there way share same software when setting 2 users on imac?
 

yes. apps in applications folder should shared.

when installing app, rarely have option install "all users" or "just user", in case choose limit usage yourself.

applications not users subfolder, it's equal users.

/applications
/users/*username

have exclusive access files in or below *username.

"Rock God" advert commands.


has else noticed that, "how play london calling?" doesn't work siri?
i'm not sure if it's because i'm using uk english (tried english too), can't bring command @ all.

same happened when 'santa' asked siri new on festive period. like, "find email naughty or nice".

clues?
 

you're not one; curious of these commands too. i'm in uk use english (it picks northern irish accent better). asked siri "how play london calling" , siri understood said offered web search. also, couldn't siri understand "how play b minor 9" @ all.

3rd gen iPod Touch - Music app crashing on a white screen


hello everyone,

i've had 64 gb ipod touch, 3rd generation long time now. never jailbroken, runs ios 5.0.1, has 8,764 songs. has worked great me, first time it's stumped me.

can't open music app more. if tap main screen, shows "opening app" animation , goes white screen blue bar @ top , black bar @ bottom, neither of have items on them. 20 seconds later app disappears , we're left @ home screen.

when stopped working using smart playlist based on last played date , rating (very slow due song quantity) , pressed genius on song. genius button switched spinner , never generated genius list.

tried sync ipod - had plugged mac night. didn't watch itunes doing while syncing (since sleeping), there weren't errors in morning... still doesn't work though.

i've tried turning off , on again, , hard-resetting (two-button salute).

ideas? else seems work fine (games, safari, etc.)

Really don't know what to do about my iPad..


hey guys, i'm curious how screens compare iphone 4?

ever since got ipad wasn't blown away screen. ater seeing post on front page today yellow tint compared iphone 4, , iphone 4 has cooler tint it. i'm not sure if entire screen defective, or warmer , it's bugging me.

ordered online, , i'm not sure if should return new 1 or not. process like?

it's perfect in every other way, don't warm tint :\ don't want return new 1 , 1 light bleeding or dead pixels etc...

guys think should do? i'm gonna go best buy , compare screens before make final decision .

[​img]

can't take pic of next iphone obviously, because iphone camera atm, here picture of ipad next mbp. both on highest brightness possible.
 

the iphone 4 cooler 4s , ipad 3. warmer better in case, closer 6500k. if you're not used it, give time adjust. think of watching calibrated hdtv after watching in dynamic long. won't right @ first, once adjust it's technically superior.

being said, seem there super warm ipads, problem in itself...
