Re: Mac mini m4 will not power up

I have had two Mac Minis— one from 2012, and one from 2024–and neither of them have chargers because they are not battery powered. They are not MagSafe. They all use a standard two prong cheater cord to connect to wall power. > On Jun 26, 2025, at 4:17 PM, pdevasto0...@gmail.com wrote: > > Won

Roin, I don’t even get the startup chime which got before so I have no way of knowing if the machine is on or not I just have to assoom it isa not coming on. I am wondering if someone pointed out if the power cord is bad. Matthew > On Jun 26, 2025, at 5:34 PM, mr.robertcole via MacVisionari

Hi, Try holding down the power button. You should get into startup and recovery options. Also be aware that after updating, sometimes you need to re enable voiceover to auto start at log on. HTH, Rob > On Jun 26, 2025, at 4:01 PM, matthew dyer > wrote: > > Hi all, > > Just received my new m4

Wondering if the charger you plug into the wall may be at fault. I've got an M4 Mac Mini, too, and I know the cord is magsafe to USB-c. Do you have another USB-c wall adapter you could try? Pete De Vasto s -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of matthew

It shouldn’t matter what architecture you were using in the past, because all your binaries are (or are likely to be, by now) so-called “fat” (“Universal”) binaries with support for both Apple Silicon and Intel. Any Intel-only apps will run under Rosetta. Your Time Machine backup no longer conta

I’ve never had any Mac other than a Mac mini. I haven’t tried to use my iPhone as a camera or mic yet but I’m considering trying it. the only thing I have to offer is that I successfully used a pair of After Shockz headphones as a Mic. they cut out the external speakers and then you can press

The built in speaker is not real good. I prefer using AirPods. Can’t comment on using an iPhone as a camera and mic, but you can always try it yourself. Logitech sells some good HD webcams for about $100, that have a place for a tripod mount. - Brad - On Dec 11, 2024, at 14:21, mr.robertcole

If you’re going for something with a speaker, don’t get the Mac Mini. The speaker is good for when you need to hear VO in a pinch but otherwise, no. I’ve not used the phone as a Mic, but I did try the camera. The angle was tricky and I gave it up as they were seeing my nose. But I did not have a
