43 Chapter 4 Problem, Meet Solution
Occasionally, you may have problems while working with your Mac mini. Read on
for troubleshooting tips to try when you have a problem. You can also find more
troubleshooting information in Mac Help, or on the Mac mini Service & Support
website at www.apple.com/support/macmini.
If you experience a problem working with your Mac mini, there’s usually a simple and
quick solution. If you encounter a problem, try to make a note of what you did before
the problem occurred. This can help you narrow down the possible causes of the
problem and then find the answers you need. Things to note include:
 The applications you were using when the problem occurred. Problems that occur
only with a specific application may indicate that the application is incompatible with
the version of Mac OS installed on your computer.
 Any software that you recently installed.
 Any new hardware (such as a peripheral) that you connected.
WARNING: Do not attempt to open your Mac mini, except to install memory. If your
Mac mini needs service, see “Learning More, Service, and Support” on page 54 for
information about how to contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider or Apple for
service. Your Mac mini doesn’t have any user-serviceable parts, except the memory.
