    Stylus for OLDER iPad (not PRO)

    I use iAnnotate on an iPad Mini. My current stylus works a bit like a fat crayon. Is there a FINE TIP stylus that works well with iAnnotate? I'm OK with one of the battery powered "smart" pens, but I don't think they work on the Mini I have. Is there a basic stylus with a FINE point?

    Mac Mini and TV

    I have a 29" Toshiba (720) TV. When I connect it to my Mini (10.10.5) with HDMI to HDMI, the image is too large and I cannot see top or bottom tool bar so I can not experiment with resolution, etc. It is my understanding that HDMI to HDMI should work with a 720p TV. If this should work for me...

    USB devices stay on in sleep mode

    Hi everyone :) I bought a new Mac Mini yesterday and I tore it apart immediately to build in a SSD. It runs great and I love it so far! Now my idea was to keep the Mac mini in sleep mode while I am not using it. Unfortunately all the USB devices stay on when I put it into sleep. I have a...

    One drop of water went into my MBA keyboard, should I worry?

    OKay, so this might sound really stupid, but I was watching a movie on my MacBook in the dark and I have a cold. So I bought one of those nose sprays to air out my nose.. Point is when in the dark I was putting back the spray on the table next to me, one very small drop (more like a bubble...

    IPad mini 2 @ AT&T $49.99 Should I?

    I went against my long standing rule of research, research, research and bought the IPad mini 2 32G from AT&T for $49.99 (w/ 2year service contract $10/mth) with purchase of iPhone 7 (I bought two iPhone 7 and one mini). Now I am second guessing this. I have 14 days to return (with a restock fee...

    All iPads iPad mini as a phone...

    Hello, interesting question here for you guys... I have a 16GB iPhone 6 Plus and I'm thinking of replacing it in January due to the small memory. One of my parents said they'll get me the new iPhone but the 7 with 128GB is £700!!! That's a damn lot of money. And I don't really want a 6S as...

    Resolved Can't log in after update.

    Okay. So I had to change my iCloud password the other day and I went ahead and logged in to all me devices and my Mac mini (then I shut the screen off and went to work). I came home yesterday to get on my mac and noticed that it still had not verified the new password in setting, just had the...

    iPad mini Is there that much difference between the original Mini and the Mini 4?

    I hate buying new cases, and was hoping that the original OtterBox Mini case would work with the Mini 4. My Mini has become almost unusable with lags and app crashes, but it's how old? Dang! I'd imagine the Mini 4 is thinner, and there is a hole in the back of the original Mini case, but the...

    Resolved Dual Monitors on a Mid 2011 Mini?

    I've done some cursory googling and have searched here a tad bit, but have gotten myself easily confused as to whether or not I can connect a second monitor (Asus VH222H) to my Mini via a MiniDisplayPort to HDMI adapter?? (my main monitor, a Dell S2715H occupies the mini's sole HDMI port ATM)...

    My 2011 Mac Mini died.

    My late-2011 Mac Mini died 7 weeks after I bought it for $500. It just suddenly, without any signs or warnings, died as if the power cord was yanked out. The Apple Store told me it was either the power supply or the main board and I'd have to pay as much to fix it as I paid to buy it, therefore...

    Poll: Have you ever upgraded the RAM in your Mini, after purchase?

    I'm just curious what percentage of people do this and what percentage don't. If you've only had a 2014 model (soldered RAM), and you would have upgraded RAM post-purchase if you could have, vote whichever way makes sense for you. Personally, I've upgraded the ram in my G4 and Core Duo Minis...

    Mac Mini doesn't recognize monitor, defaults to low resolution

    I have just purchased a Mac Mini with the intent of using it a family machine in place of my old W7. I'm using a KVM adapter to share a monitor (Hyundai) and a wireless keyboard/mouse combo between the Mini and my Ubuntu dev desktop. The Mini defaults to a 1280x1024, and cannot see my Hyundai...
