Introducing Apple Mac mini 2014

It’s mini in a massive way.
Mac mini is an affordable powerhouse that packs the entire Mac experience into
a 7.7‐inch‐square frame. Just connect your own display, keyboard, and mouse,
and you’re ready to make big things happen.

Just big enough to fit everything
you want in a desktop.
Mac mini makes everyday tasks a breeze with fourth‐generation Intel Core processors, a flash storage
option that’s up to 50 percent faster, and wireless performance up to three times quicker than its
predecessor. With Intel Iris Graphics or Intel HD Graphics 5000, it also delivers graphics performance
up to 90 percent faster than the previous generation. And with great connectivity features like
Thunderbolt 2 and support for HDTV, Mac mini makes the perfect centerpiece to any setup.

Powerfully petite.
Carved from a solid block of aluminum, Mac mini has a seamless, unique look that is unmistakably
Mac. At less than an inch and a half tall and under three pounds, it keeps a low profile without
sacrificing functionality. And it’s still the world’s most energy‐efficient desktop computer — it
doesn’t just meet ENERGY STAR requirements, it exceeds them up to seven times over. With a
computer this compact, the only question is what to do with all that free desk space.

OS X Yosemite. The world’s most
advanced desktop operating system.
Easy to use, beautiful to look at, and engineered to take full advantage of your Mac hardware, OS X
Yosemite is the world’s most advanced desktop operating system. It comes with an amazing
collection of apps for the things you do every day. And it’s designed to enable your Mac and iOS
devices to work together in amazing ways.

Great built‐in apps for work and play.
Every new Mac comes with iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. So
you can be creative and productive right from the start. These apps have been updated to
match the beautiful design of OS X Yosemite. You also get great apps for email, surfing the
web, sending texts, and making FaceTime calls — there’s even an app for finding new apps.

Punches
way above
its weight.
Mac mini features fourth‐generation
Intel Core processors, faster
integrated graphics, Thunderbolt 2,
next‐generation Wi‐Fi, and plenty of
ports. Everything you expect from a
Mac. And more.

Fourth‐generation
Intel Core processors.
The little engine that does.
With fourth‐generation Intel Core processors, Mac mini
keeps up with computers twice its size. You can choose a
1.4GHz, 2.6GHz, or 2.8GHz dual‐core Intel Core i5. Or go
for an even more powerful 3.0GHz dual‐core Intel Core i7.
When you’re using processor‐intensive applications, Turbo
Boost 2.0 increases the clock speed up to 3.5GHz. Hyper‐
Threading lets each core run two threads, so OS X
multitasks even more efficiently. And an integrated
memory controller connects fast 1600MHz memory
directly to the processor, so it gets right to work on your
data. In short, Mac mini is a little box of vroom.

Intel Iris Graphics and
HD Graphics 5000.
Every pixel comes alive.
Intel Iris Graphics and Intel HD Graphics 5000 deliver up to 90
percent more pixel‐pushing performance than the previous
generation of integrated graphics.1 So the video you watch and
the games you play are smoother and more responsive. Flipping
through photo albums is a breeze. And now you’ve got all the
power you need to edit your HD video into a film worthy of a
red carpet premiere.
Mac mini Graphics Performance
Up to 90% faster than previous-generation Mac mini.

Storage.
Make it big. And fast.
Fusion Drive.
A high capacity for intelligence.
Standard on the $999 model and a configurable option on
the others, Fusion Drive combines a 1TB hard drive with
amazingly quick PCIe‐based flash storage.2 Fusion Drive
automatically and intelligently manages your data so that
frequently used apps, documents, photos, and other files
stay on the faster flash storage, while infrequently used
items move to the hard drive. You’ll enjoy shorter boot
times and, as the system learns how you work, you’ll see
faster application launches and quicker file access. Best of
all, you don’t have to do a thing to make it happen.
You can also choose a 500GB or 1TB hard drive. Or
configure your Mac mini with up to 1TB of flash storage in
a solid‐state drive for the fastest performance. Flash
storage delivers nearly nine times the performance of a
disk drive3 — speed you’ll notice when you boot your Mac
mini, launch an app, or browse your photo library.
UP TO
1TB
FUSION DRIVE

Thunderbolt 2.
The fastest, most versatile
I/O in any desktop.
Of any size.
Thunderbolt 2 technology in Mac mini is phenomenally
fast. The two Thunderbolt 2 ports on Mac mini feature
dual 20‐Gbps channels for data transfer. That’s up to
four times faster than USB 3. But beyond speed,
Thunderbolt gives you unprecedented expansion
capabilities. You can daisy‐chain as many as six
Thunderbolt devices to a single port. And since
Thunderbolt is based on DisplayPort technology, Mini
DisplayPort devices like the Apple LED Cinema Display
plug right in, too.
UP TO
25X
FASTER THAN
FIREWIRE 800

USB 3, Wi‐Fi, and Bluetooth.
You’re very well connected.
Plenty of ports make it ready for anything.
As powerful as Thunderbolt 2 is, it’s just one of your options. If you have a third‐party
display, you can use the HDMI port to connect it. You can connect two displays to see more
of your photos, movies, and documents at the same time. And a built‐in SDXC card slot
makes it easy to import those photos and videos from your digital camera.

USB 3.
With USB 3 built into Mac mini, you can connect your external hard drive and transfer large files in seconds
instead of minutes. Every Mac mini comes with four USB 3 ports — with speeds up to 10 times faster than USB
2 — and you can connect all your USB‐compatible devices, including your iPhone, iPad, iPod, or digital camera.
Wi‐Fi and Bluetooth.
Powerful 802.11ac wireless technology is built into every Mac mini. It automatically locates your Wi‐Fi network, so
you can connect and start surfing the web, printing, and streaming your music wirelessly. Bluetooth wireless
technology is also built in, so you can connect accessories such as a wireless keyboard and mouse. Wi‐Fi and
Bluetooth also make it easy to seamlessly share your work with your other devices using Handoff or AirDrop.
Bring your own display, keyboard, and mouse.
Plug your own display, keyboard, and mouse into Mac mini. Turn it on. And just like that, everything works
together. That’s one of the great things about Mac mini. You can mix and match it with almost anything.

No screen is too big.
It’s easy to connect Mac mini to the biggest screen in the house — your HDTV — courtesy
of a built‐in HDMI port. All it takes is one HDMI cable to start enjoying movies and TV shows
from iTunes, surfing the web, and flipping through your photo library, all in brilliant HD.
And when you just want to listen to music, you can play your entire iTunes collection
through your home entertainment center, or stream it to a set of speakers in any room via
an AirPort Express Base Station.

An inch and a half tall.
And nothing short of amazing.
Sleek aluminum design. A built‐in power supply.
Mac mini makes the most of every square inch.

Forged ahead. Way ahead.
Mac mini features a 1.4‐inch‐thin seamless unibody enclosure carved
from a single, solid block of aluminum. It’s created using computer
numerical control, or CNC, machines — the same kind used by the
aerospace industry to build mission‐critical spacecraft components. This
ensures absolute precision of every component of the Mac mini
enclosure. Not to mention a stunning aluminum fit and finish that will
make any desk proud.
No detail is too mini.
The power supply is built right into Mac mini. So there’s no bulky brick, and
there are fewer cables to connect. Mac mini is clean and well organized on the
inside, too. With attention paid to the tiniest details. Like the air intake vent. It’s
practically invisible. Mac mini is full of big ideas.

Many ports. Major possibilities.
Mac mini packs a lot of connectivity into a small space. You can
daisy‐chain up to six peripherals to a single Thunderbolt 2 port.
Easily connect Mac mini to your HDTV. And a built‐in SDXC card
slot makes speedy work of transferring photos and videos from
your digital cameras.

Still the world’s most energy‐
eﬃcient desktop computer.
Energy eﬃcient.
What Mac mini doesn’t do could be its biggest feat. It doesn’t waste
energy. Even though the new Mac mini can deliver a huge
performance boost compared with the previous generation, it still uses
less than 6 watts of power when idle. Small wonder, then, that it
doesn’t just meet ENERGY STAR requirements, it exceeds them —
seven times over.
Environmentally friendly.
Mac mini is made from highly recyclable aluminum, and with a built‐in
power supply, there’s no plastic housing. It’s also free of many harmful
toxins commonly present in the desktop computer manufacturing
process. Mac mini contains no lead, brominated flame retardants
(BFRs), or polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Even its package is designed to be
mini, so it’s as efficient as possible to ship.
Advanced power management.
Mac mini uses energy‐efficient hardware components that work hand
in hand with the operating system to conserve power. OS X never
misses a power‐saving opportunity, no matter how small. It spins down
hard drives and activates sleep mode after a period of inactivity. It even
regulates the processor between keystrokes, reducing power between
the letters you type.
6 WATTS OF ELECTRICITY
WHEN IDLE

OS X. It’s what makes a Mac a Mac.
OS X is the operating system that powers every Mac. Built on a rock‐solid UNIX
foundation, it’s engineered to take full advantage of what the hardware is capable of.
It’s designed to be as easy to use as it is beautiful to look at. It comes with an amazing
collection of apps you’ll use — and love — every day. And it enables your Mac and iOS
devices to work wonderfully together.

Software and hardware
made for each other.
OS X is built to bring out the best in your Mac, so you get a fully integrated system in which everything works
together seamlessly. It works with the processor in your Mac to deliver the best possible performance. It
works with the super‐responsive trackpad in Mac notebooks so Multi-Touch gestures feel natural to use. OS X
works with your Mac hardware to keep the entire system up to date while it sleeps.1 Advanced power‐saving
technologies help extend battery life. And OS X is designed for the gorgeous Mac displays, including
high-resolution Retina displays, so fonts look crisp and graphics are vivid.

Mac and iOS are connected
like never before.
With OS X Yosemite and iOS 8, your devices work together in even smarter ways. Now you can make and
receive iPhone calls on your Mac, even if your iPhone is in another room. Send and receive both iMessage and
SMS text messages on your Mac. Start an email, document, or browsing session on one device and instantly
pick it up on another. And turn on the Personal Hotspot on your iPhone right from your Mac so you can get
online in an instant.

Easy to learn. Easy to use. Easy to love.
From the desktop you see when you start up your Mac to the applications you use every day, everything is
designed to be easy and intuitive. On a Mac, it’s easy to find, share, and do just about everything. You can
control your Mac with simple, intuitive gestures. The Dock lets you launch your favorite apps with a click.
Launchpad gives you quick access to your full library of apps. The Finder lets you browse and organize your
files on your Mac and in iCloud with ease. Spotlight search makes locating documents, launching apps, and
looking up information effortless. You can even have your apps and the operating system software update
automatically. In fact, a Mac does so many things automatically, sometimes you don’t have to do anything
at all.
The Finder is a simple way to access practically everything on your Mac and in iCloud.

With Launchpad, you can see, organize, and open all your apps in one place.

at all.
Spotlight lets you quickly find information on your Mac and from Wikipedia, news, iTunes, Maps, and more.

Multi-Touch, Mac style.
We believe the best way to bring Multi-Touch gestures to a computer is on the horizontal surface of a
trackpad. So navigating your Mac using your fingers to tap, scroll, pinch, and swipe feels perfectly natural. And
because Apple makes both the hardware and software, Multi-Touch gestures are remarkably precise. When
you scroll down, your document scrolls down. When you scroll up, your web page scrolls up. When you swipe
left, your photos move left. These and other gestures make all you do on your Mac easy, intuitive, and fun.

Built for power. From the ground up.
Making powerful things simple requires some seriously advanced technologies. OS X is loaded with them. It’s
built on a rock‐solid, time‐tested UNIX foundation that provides unparalleled stability and industry‐leading
support for Internet standards. OS X takes full advantage of the multicore Intel processors and fast flash
storage to handle any task. And the incredible graphics capabilities in OS X supply applications like
Final Cut Pro with impressive video editing power

Advanced features for power users.
And everybody else, too.
As a desktop operating system, OS X offers powerful ways to get work done as efficiently as possible. For
example, you can organize, view, and find files in your system any way you want. With Finder Tabs, you can
consolidate multiple Finder windows into a single window. And you can label your files with tags so you can
easily organize files by project, without having to move them into a folder. If you like to work with multiple
applications at the same time, Mission Control gives you a bird’s‐eye view of everything that’s running on your
system. And if you want to use a second display with your Mac, just plug it in — no configuration required. If
you have an Apple TV, you can even use your HDTV as a fully functional second display over
your wireless network.

Amazing apps for everyday things.
With every new Mac, you get a collection of six powerful productivity and creativity apps: Pages, Keynote,
Numbers, iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand. And you get more great apps for the things you do every day: surf
the web, make FaceTime video calls, send messages, get driving directions, manage your contacts, send email,
and more. If you already use an iPhone or iPad, many apps will feel instantly familiar. And because they’re
built by Apple just for OS X, they’re fully integrated into the operating system and with each other. So with just
a few clicks, you can do things like view a map of an address by clicking a contact card, set up a calendar
appointment from an email, or share a photo without switching apps.
Because they’re native apps — not web apps in a browser — they also take full advantage of the power of
your Mac to deliver the fastest possible performance. In addition, whenever there’s an update, you’ll get it
automatically. And with the Mac App Store built in, it’s easy to find more great apps.

iCloud. Everything you love,
everywhere you go.
Thanks to built‐in support for iCloud, whatever you do in apps like iTunes, Mail, Contacts, and Calendar on
your Mac happens on your other devices, too.3 So, for example, a contact or a calendar event you add on your
iPhone also appears on your Mac. You can send driving directions from your Mac to your iPhone. Add a
meeting to your calendar on your Mac and receive an alert on your iPad. Buy a song in iTunes on your Mac and
it can automatically download to your iPhone. Even start a Messages conversation on your iPhone and finish it
on your Mac. And iCloud Drive lets you access all your documents on your Mac and iOS devices. So your files
will go wherever you do.

Security was the first thought.
Not an afterthought.
Every Mac is designed with advanced technologies that work together to constantly scrutinize, encrypt,
update — and ultimately keep your Mac safer. For starters, OS X includes a host of features designed to
protect your Mac and the information on it. Gatekeeper makes it safer to download and install apps. FileVault
safeguards data using powerful encryption. Sandboxing protects your system by isolating apps from each other,
as well as from your system and your data. Find My Mac helps you locate your missing Mac on a map, set a
passcode remotely, and more. Customizable privacy settings keep your personal information under
your control.
The best way to keep your Mac up to date with the latest security features? Just install software updates —
the Mac App Store notifies you when you have an update. And because OS X Yosemite is available as a free
upgrade, it’s easier than ever to keep your Mac safe with the latest security features and enhancements.

Compatible with Windows.
The versatility and power of OS X help a Mac fit in just about anywhere — including Windows networks. Want
to transfer your files, photos, and other data from a Windows PC? OS X lets you do that easily with Migration
Assistant. If you want to run Windows on your Mac, you can do that with Boot Camp.4 OS X has built‐in
support for the latest version of Microsoft Exchange Server, so you can use your Mac at home and at work and
keep all your messages, meetings, and contacts in sync. And, of course, you can work with popular file types
such as JPG, MP3, and PDF, as well as Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents.

Accessibility built in.
OS X comes standard with a wide range of assistive technologies that help people with disabilities experience
what the Mac has to offer, including many features you won’t find in other operating systems — at any price.
For example, the built‐in VoiceOver screen reader, available in over 30 languages, makes it possible for those
who are blind or have low vision to control their computers using key commands or gestures on a Multi-Touch
trackpad. Switch Control makes it easier to navigate menus and operate basic controls such as volume,
brightness, eject, and media playback. OS X also offers out‐of‐the‐box support for more than 40 braille displays
(including Bluetooth displays) and many other accessibility features, such as dynamic full‐screen magnification,
playback of closed captions, and a scalable screen.

is everything you can do with it.
Every Mac comes with apps for creativity and apps for productivity. It also comes with
a collection of great apps for things you do every day, like surﬁng the web, sending
mail and messages, and organizing your calendar. It even comes with an app for
finding new apps. Your Mac is more than full-featured, it’s fully loaded.

iOS device.3 Catch up, hang out, and stay in touch with just a click. Simply find the person you want to see by
typing their name, email address, or phone number to start a FaceTime call. You can even make FaceTime
calls from Contacts, Messages, or Spotlight. When someone calls, you'll get a notification that tells you who’s
calling and lets you accept, decline, or set a callback reminder. It works even if FaceTime isn’t running, so you
never have to worry about making yourself available.
Make video calls from your Mac to anyone on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or another Mac.

It’s ahead of its time.
Keep track of your busy schedule and share it with others using Calendar. Create separate calendars — one
for home, another for school, a third for work, and so on. See all your calendars in a single window or choose
to see only the calendars you want. The inspector not only lets you add a location to your event, it also helps
you out by suggesting locations as you type, then provides a map and a weather forecast. Calendar also
works with iCloud, Yahoo, and Google. And when you use iCloud, every Calendar change you make on your
Mac automatically appears on your iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch.4 So no dinner dates are missed, no meeting
goes unattended, and no anniversary is forgotten.
See all your calendars in a single window. Or choose to see only the calendars you want.

Great with names. And faces.
Contacts is a flexible and convenient place to store information for everyone you know. It’s easy to import
names, numbers, addresses, and photos from other applications like Facebook or LinkedIn. Contacts
automatically includes your friends’ and connections’ profile photos and information and keeps them up to
date. You can create smart groups for clubs, activities, and business purposes; print address labels and
envelopes; and more. iCloud updates your contacts on your iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, and Mac — so when
you enter someone’s contact info once, you have it everywhere. If you have an iPhone, you can even dial a
number from Contacts and use your Mac as a speakerphone.
When you add, delete, or edit a contact, iCloud updates your iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, and Mac.

Download thousands of apps from the Mac App Store straight to Launchpad on your Mac.
Mac App Store

From current best sellers to classic literature to textbooks, it’s easy to find what you’re looking for in the iBooks Store.
You can browse by top sellers, author, or genre. And click to see details, check out reviews, or read a free sample.
iBooks
Always have something good to read.
Download and read everything from classic novels to the latest page‐turners. Reading is easy and intuitive —
turn pages with a swipe and zoom in with a pinch. If you’re a student hitting the books, you can keep as many
open as you like. And when you take notes or highlight passages on your Mac, iCloud pushes them to all your
devices automatically. It even remembers which page you’re on, so you can always pick up right where
you left off.

Maps
A destination unto itself.
Now you’ve got the whole world on your desktop. And at your fingertips like never before. You can look up
directions on your Mac and send them right to your iPhone for voice navigation on the way.5 In addition,
your bookmarks and recent searches are automatically pushed to all your iOS devices, so you can plan trips
on your Mac and have all the locations easily at hand when you’re on the road. Of course, you can get
information on local points of interest like restaurants and hotels, with phone numbers, photos, and even
Yelp reviews.
Because it’s a native app, you can use every pixel of your display to explore new destinations. Maps also
takes full advantage of the graphics power of your Mac. So zooming is incredibly smooth and responsive, and
you get gorgeous views such as Flyover, a photo‐realistic, interactive 3D experience that lets you soar high
above select cities.
Use Maps to decide where you’re going, learn how to get there, and check traffic along your route.

Maps
Yelp reviews.
Get a whole new perspective with stunning, photo‐realistic 3D views as you use intuitive Multi‐
Touch gestures to soar over select major cities and their landmarks.

Maps
Yelp reviews.
Click a pin or a point of interest on the map to get the complete address, phone number, website
link, photos — even Yelp reviews.

Maps
Yelp reviews.
Plan a trip on your Mac and send the map directly to your iPhone, where Maps can give you turn‐
by‐turn voice navigation as you go.

Photo Booth
Say “cheese,” then smile.
Take fun snapshots and make short videos in Photo Booth. You can share what you shoot directly to
Facebook and Twitter thanks to the built‐in Share button. Use photos as your Messages icons. Assign them to
friends and family in Contacts. And add photos to your iPhoto library. But the real fun starts when you use the
effects and backdrops. Snap a photo of yourself at the Eiffel Tower or in outer space. Choose from nine
effects that use facial tracking technology so effects look great whether you’re front and center — or left of
center. Snap single photos or shoot multiples in a four‐photo burst. You can even shoot and trim video clips,
complete with effects. And see your Photo Booth photos full screen.
Take quick snapshots and film short videos. Even add fun effects.

Time Machine
Built‐in backup.
Time Machine works with your Mac and an external hard drive or AirPort Time Capsule (sold separately).
Connect the drive and designate it as your Time Machine drive, then start enjoying some peace of mind.
Time Machine automatically backs up your entire Mac, including system files, applications, accounts,
preferences, music, photos, movies, and documents. But what makes Time Machine different from other
backup applications is that it not only keeps a spare copy of every file, it remembers how your system looked
on any given day — so you can revisit your Mac as it appeared in the past or retrieve an older version of a
document you created. You can also restore your entire system from a Time Machine backup.
Browse by date to see how your system looked at any previous time.
And restore your Mac with a click.
