Hello Everyone,

I'm a new Late 2012 Mac Mini owner. 1st time poster and 1st. time Mac owner.

Core i5
16 GB Ram
Apple Bluetooth keyboard & Magic trackpad.
2013 32" Samsung LED 5500 Series Smart TV
Logitech THX 2.1 speakers

I've having an issue where the TV will not go to sleep when I shut down the Mini. I have it plugged in HDMI to HDMI. It's on the correct HDMI port on the back of the TV labeled HDMI/DVI. I also renamed the source to PC.

I have alo tried mini display port to HDMI, HDMI to DVI to HDMI, mini display port to HDMI. Yes, I bought every possible Apple brand adapter and returned every one of them except the HDMI to VGA that it came with. My 4 year old 32" Samsung LCD TV hooked up HDMI to HDMI would sleep when I shut down the computer. Does anybody have any suggestions?

I called Samsung and they scheduled to have an advanced tech call me. I'm not holding my breath.
