M1 Mac mini keep crashing and then restart.

seadragon said:
Hey, word to the wise… lose the attitude. People are trying to help you. The Mac mini doesn’t have a DP port so as @Fravin asked, what is plugged into it?

Amazon.com: Displayport To HDMI: Electronics

Online shopping from a great selection at Electronics Store.
www.amazon.com

Mac mini has HDMI port and therefore I said DP to HDMI. I dont see the problem about mentioning DP to HDMI which I was very clear about it. Do I have to mention a same thing every single time since you are the one who is not understanding it? Also, I mentioned that Mac mini didnt crash without 3rd party apps. Clearly, I dont need to explain this more than twice.

So you are NOT going DP *TO* HDMI as you stated. You are going the OTHER direction… HDMI *TO* DP. Big difference. Those cables are meant for a DP source TO HDMI display. Not the other way around. Read the fine print. The details matter.

This is likely your problem. Again, quit the smart remarks.

Doesn't matter. I have several cables to use and it keep crashing and then restart the computer. As I mentioned before, it didnt happen when I didnt download any 3rd party apps. I'm not being denial, I'm telling facts after I experienced this for more than 5 months. Imagine when your Mac keep crashing every single day without any reasons.

Okay, that sucks. But your DP to HDMI statement was incorrect and you were getting defensive when people were trying to clarify. And the signal direction DOES matter. That was my point. Good luck to you.

I have USB-C to USB-C for a graphic tablet but same thing.

But I really dont see a point of talking about the cable since the software is the main problem. I seriously feel that Big Sur is not yet ready to be used as I keep having crash issues from the beginning. I already spoke with both senior advisor and engineer and they took my Mac's log to investigate but they aren't responding at all. How come using 3rd party apps causing the problem? I still dont understand that at all.

Actually it does matter.

Several users have the exact same problem when using M1 MacMini's HDMI output. In the early days of Big Sur it wasn't an issue, but while M1 Macs became available to users, some of them started to report crashes immediately after Magenta or Green Screen.

Now we know that the problem are related to HDMI output on MacMini. I didn't understood how you were using your display. Now I can state that your cable is corrupting the signal and causing the MacMini to crash.

Several users reported that after a cable replacement the MacMini became solid rock. So do yourself a favor and buy one of these USB-C -> Displayport And connect it in the MacMini's Thunderbolt port. And forget the Mini's HDMI port.

Here is one, for instance:Cable

Bear in mind that in computers aren't simple. There are too many small little things that can corrupt the whole system. Things get worse with OSs and third party software. Believe you or not, it is really a rocket science!

And while asking for help, provide all the information available. It can help to troubleshoot faster.

Good luck.

Any recommendations for HDMI solution for those without DP? I've avoided connecting anything externally to my MBA M1 but eyeing buying this to try on new display.

Yes, any good USB-c -> HDMI will work fine. The issue that OP is tackling is related to MacMini's HDMI port. That port is faultily designed and some says that it wouldn't even exist.

The fact is that M1 chip is engineered with DP output in mind, via their USB-C ports. But only the MacMini has this blamed HDMI port.

So don't be afraid to use your M1 MBA with an external display.

For anyone else that has reached this post, just to be clear, don't trust the M1 MacMini HDMI port, use the USB-C ports to output video.

Just FYI. I have my M1 Mac mini connected to the Caldigit TS3+ dock and then use the DisplayPort from the dock to my Dell monitor DisplayPort input. Works perfectly.

As someone considering a M1 Mac mini, this is helpful information. Thanks.
It sucks that one of the two USB-C ports has to be used for video.

And kudos to you for your patience in assisting the OP.
The OP looks like a new member. And while we know it can be frustrating not finding a solution, courtesy goes a long way. Repeating something twice is not so difficult, is it? Besides, people are just trying to help.

For anyone else that has reached this post, just to be clear, don't trust the M1 MacMini HDMI port, use the USB-C ports to output video.

My Mac Mini just arrived today. I need to use two monitors for work. If the HDMI port is not reliable, does this mean I am not going to be able to use two monitors?

Unfortunately yes. That is the real blame of it. Not loosing one thunderbolt port. But the display output loss.


There are reports that HDMI connection becomes stable only when running a 4k display in 59.97Hz (not 60Hz) and in sRGB.
With you would like to try it, please leave your comments here.

The lack of multiple displays output is the bottleneck of the M1. People are getting angry about their new MBPs. Can you imagine that a MBP can only drive one external display?
When you use it in clamshell mode, you wil have only one display output.

Blame Apple for this. Or use a single display and be happy with your blaze fast MacMini, which was my choice here.

It is not usable for me if two monitors will not work.

Thanks for all the info.

My HDMI is stable on the mini. I've got 4k on first display (USB-C Dell u2720q) and a 1200p (1920x1200 Dell 2407WFP-HC) on HDMI. No issues at all.

This may have been mentioned already, but...
Download "EtreCheck" and run it. See what it reports.

What "login items" do you have?
Check your "users and groups" preference pane.

I'm wondering if the "Huion Tablet app" could have something to do with it?
