Getting to Know Your Mac mini
To check for updated software:
1
Choose Apple () > Software Update. The Software Update window opens. If there are
any updates available, they appear in a list.
2
Click the checkbox to select the items you want to install, then click Install. Type an
administrator name and password (the name and password you used when you first
set up your computer).
When the updates complete, Software Update checks for updates again. It does this
because some updates require that you have installed previous updates. For more
information, search for “Software Update” in Mac OS Help (see page 29).
Connecting a Camera or Other FireWire Device
If you have an iPod, iSight camera, FireWire digital video camera, or other device that
has a FireWire connector, you can connect it to your Mac mini. Follow the installation
instructions that came with your device. For more information about FireWire, see
Connecting to a Network
If you want to connect your Mac mini to an Ethernet network, cable or DSL modem, or
a wireless network, see “Ethernet (10/100Base-T)” on page 43 and “AirPort Extreme
Wireless Internet and Networking” on page 37 for more information about setting up
an Ethernet or AirPort connection. Also open Mac OS Help (see page 30) and search for
“Ethernet” or “AirPort” for further help.
