M4 Mac Mini First 24 Things To Do, Tips & Tricks!

[@Zebrajellyfishphoto]

Thanks for your presentation. I'll be getting a new Mac Mini M4 Pro this coming Monday and my goal is to use it in two locations. I currently have a Magic Trackpad and Magic Keyboard and purchased a 2nd Magic keyboard and Magic trackpad for a second location. Will I need to pair both of my keyboards and trackpads each time I move my Mini? The only reason I'm buying an extra keyboard and trackpad is so I don't have to also carry them along with the mini as I move to and from each location. Is this a crazy way of doing things? Thanks!

I had to turn off the Apple Watch Auto Unlock as my cat kept unlocking my computer whenever I was in the same room as my Mac 😂

Great tips. As cool as crossover seems, the lifetime $495 price tag is a bit wild considering you can just buy a tiny Geekom PC for $500 that will play just about any game. Just invest in a switch for you monitor and flip back and forth at that point.

FYI - iPhone Mirroring is currently not supported in Denmark / EU

will a vpn work?

You can 2 finger click on Task Bar and turn Hiding On. Quicker :)

Why did you go to the top left corner for the settings app? You already had it on the Dock

cool as crossover looks I think I will just wait for Cyberpunk to become native.

[@nniklask]

@@johngault22 i mean that’s not the only game you can play through crossover

after set up first set mouse and keyboard, i bring my mac mini to new location trying to pair another set of bluetooth keyboard and mouse but just don’t know how to make mini to go pair mode without any keyboard or mouse any suggestions? thanks. 😊

I prefer moving the dock to the left side of the screen instead of auto hide, as this can mess with your window management really quickly.

Thank you for doing this!

Does gaming will support on base version?

[@RihardsVeters]

Why you're not using Raycast?

Question:can you mirror Ipad?

[@user-hl9jq8iz4i]

Yes

[@howardhdavidson]

No Face ID you can get it in the IPad and iPhone..Don’t understand it I suppose it’s the price of the base model.

[@lorkmikko]

Must be on wifi for mirroring to work

[@snax_4820]

That is more of a sales show ...

The problem is that it gets really hot when you play games.

[@hareesh77]

i cant see developers who has put any comments or youtube videos, for tiktok and reels it seems ok i think !

Buying mac for gaming is like buying kitchen knife instead of tootpicks.

[@nastybadger-tn4kl]

it sucks. My keyboard unresponsive. Type few words and it thinks. I called apple support they said they dont support non apple keyboard and mouse.

[@user-hl9jq8iz4i]

It does work don’t know why they said that to you

[@loafio1118]

@@nastybadger-tn4kl The whole point of the Mac desktops are to ‘bring your own keyboard, mouse, and display’. They definitely didn’t say that to you.

[@rubyreeds8931]

​@@nastybadger-tn4kl I use non-Apple keyboard and mouse with my base model M4 mini. They work via Bluetooth and wired. It only accepts wired connections for non-Apple keyboards and mice though when you're setting up, since of course the horrendously-designed Apple mouse and slightly-better keyboard would be more naturally compatible. Accessing Bluetooth settings isn't until you're able to launch your desktop for the first time.
