    Need Network Help

    Can you see your PC from your mac, that is through your router ? Double check that your Mac is setup to receive an Ip adress from the router, I mean in DHCP mode.

    hello, just to share with you. In france, a retail store (La FNAC) is selling directly on shelves the WIFI and BT add-on module for the Mac Mini ! They are not supposed to do this, and papers on the box (white box with no marketing or packaging) say clearly that this must be sold with the...

    Mac Mini DVI display problem
