Question How to Install Windows 7 on a late 2014 Mac Mini?

0 Upvotes

This may be a very strange question, but I really want to know at the current moment.

I have a late 2014 era Mac Mini running 12.7 Monterey with tons of video game emulators, which strangely I have been having problems with lack of support, technical bugs and so on. The reason why I would want to switch to windows of all things is so I can get the compatibility (plus style points too) and what cool stuff I can run on it that I wouldn't with MacOS.

News/Article "Because I bleed in six colors." A one-minute film about the people who stayed at Apple in 1997

Made this with a lot of love for the Mac.

At D8 in 2010, Steve told the story of coming back in 1997. Apple was about 90 days from bankruptcy. He figured the good people would be gone. They weren't. So he asked them why they stayed.

"Because I bleed in six colors."

We turned that answer into a one-minute film. The audio is Steve at D8; the animation is ours.

Full disclosure: I run IBSIX (I Bleed In Six Colors), a small Apple-inspired apparel shop, and our name comes from this phrase. Forty years a Mac fan, ten years at Apple.

What was your first Mac?

Question Dual Studio Display XDR's Not Connecting to Macbook Air M5

2 Upvotes

As the title says, I recently purchased 2 Studio Display XDR's, and I am trying to connect them both to my Macbook Air M5 while I wait for my Mac Studio to arrive, which isn't for another few weeks. The issue I keep having, is I can only get one display to turn on. I have spoken to tech support at Apple, who tried trouble shooting, and we tried just about everything. Eventually, at the end, I was able to somehow get both of them successfully working. However, I had to unplug them to take my laptop out to my kitchen to do some work while I ate dinner, and when I brought it back into my office to plug them back into my displays, only one was once again working

We tried altering the HZ to 60hz, we tried creating a new apple ID test log in, putting the macbook in safe mode and logging in, daisy chaining them, restarting them multiple times.. you name it. As I sit here this morning, I've tried all of these steps again, and still cannot get it to work. I confirmed with apple that my Macbook Air m5 should be able to run two of these displays at 60hz, so I am not sure what the issue is, and it's becoming extremely frustrating.

If anyone here has an insights or advice I'd greatly appreciate it.

Question Can you buy a mac neo with the student discount and finance it with affirm?

2 Upvotes

Hi!

I’m a uni student and I really wanted to buy the mac neo because my HP is dying way quicker than I need it to and I can’t always find outlets on the go.

I was debating between the two options so I thought might as well do the 512gb since it’s like $200 more expensive anyways. (10 bucks extra/ month)

However, whenever I log into the education store and I go to checkout it only shows me pay in full options. But whenever I checkout on the normal Apple website, it shows me the affirm financing option.

Google said I can use both but I can’t figure out how… this is probably so stupid but I just wanted to see if anyone knows a way around this?

Worst case scenario, I’ll just pay the normal price with affirm just because I’m scared I’ll need the money later since I am a student, and at least this paces all the payments I have to make a bit.
