noob question , those got two iMac side by side

your wireless keyboard and mouse can just use one?


I doubt so using one keyboard and mouse can control two iMac???

unless we are talking about using dual display here.

by the way , I never try before.

Usually I charge my iPhone 6 is via iPhone charger plug to my power bar.

I want to save power point.

is it ok to charge via my iMac?

I suppose can.

But the real doubt is , after I charge finish my iPhone plug out BUT still let the lighting cable attract the iMac while the mac still never go to sleep mode , is on

will it get " voltage shock ' ??? since the lighting cable never charge anything and left dangling behind the iMac while still running.

Have a problem on my MAC OS installation

swooped my MAC Mini hard disk to SSD via SLS repair shop..

Now I tried to reinstalling the OS and it is unable to do so and it keeps indicating "The request is time out"

Anybody can advice what should I do next?

Did you connect to your network, assuming you are formatting through the disk utility?

I just noticed the new iMac magic keyboard got build in battery and is charge via Lighting cable attach to your iMac

is it ok to left the lighting cable attach behind despite you never charge? whereas you iMac still on?


lastly I wonder you guys noticed while surfing Facebook Page , while you scroll up and down kinda got flicker

but on other websites is ok.

I amuse is not due to safari problems? since other websites look ok

this only appear on Facebook while you view Facebook Page

I suspect that Apple recognises that the SSD that I am using is not the original hard drive and therefore when it ran the "Verification for Computer Eligibility" when I did the installation... it subsequently "Time out"

Not possible. There shouldn't have any problem formatting on another SSD.
