Since most YouTube content requires the Flash plugin, uninstall then reinstall the plugin > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS

I have a 10.5.8 and would need to know how to upgrade the soft ware ? . or do I need to buy a new computer.
Back up your data, click here, and read the entire page. Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC software such as Microsoft Office 2004.

Please help! I have a Apple MacBook Pro "Core i7" 2.8 13" Late 2011. i want to upgrade its RAM from 4GB to 16GB. But OWC sells two kinds of RAM, the DDR3 and the DDR3L.What is the different and which one would work better for my mac. Thanks!!!
I don't see any DDR3L on the page for the RAM that would fit your model -> http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_133 3MHz_SDRAM.
But the answer is that it doesn't really matter - just make certain to get 1333MHz.
Good luck,

I have upgraded my MacBook Pro 15 late 2011 to 8Gb RAM, now when I go to about this mac in it more info it doesn't show AMD graphics card as it used to before, it just show Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB is that a problem that I need to worry about?
and in system report >> hardware >> Graphics/Display >> it shows both grafics card listed.Some Mac's when the RAM is increased the Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics will bump itself up to the higher video RAM it takes, this seems to be what occured.
It also means the dedicated graphics card will be used less, but only so slightly less.
You obviously still should have both, you can test this by turning off Graphics Switching in Energy Saver, that will use the decicated AMD card all the time.
You can also run Cinebench and compare the scores here

In order for me to take advantage of transferring files, music, docs I need a new mac 10.5 or later. My computer is 10.4.11. So in other words I need to buy a new computer? To be able to use icloud sufficiently?
Maybe, maybe not.
Get more information about your computer. Go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then "About This Mac", then "More Info..." Copy and paste the information here, but omit the serial number and Hardware UUID (if present).
For full iCloud you need 10.7 But the question really is, do you need all the things it does? I mean really? Oh, you don't mention if this question is in conjunction with some device you own. To whom and how are you transferring files? -
I am using an I-mac series 4 with a 2GHZ processor, I tried to convert to Lion and the rresponse was the chip was not fast enough, can I upgrade the chip or do I need to purchase a new computer?
Unfortunately yes, but Snow Leopard is still a great OS in the meantime so don't rush in too quick if you really don't need to.
Good Luck

Hello all,
I have a 14.88G iPod Nano that I currently use as my primary watch. A week or so ago I started to experience a blank white screen when I press the "sleep/wake" button instead of the watch face (I have it set to wake from sleep to display the clock). When I hard reset it, it will come back fine and the screen will respond and work as normal, as soon as I manually put it to sleep by pressing the "sleep/wake" button and then try to wake it the same thing happens and I have a blank white screen that doesn't respond to touch gestures or anything.
What I have tried so far to no avail:
Numerous hard restarts (holding the "sleep/wake" button with the volume - button).
Tried this: iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
Changed the watch face to display.
Recharged the device overnight (without full discharge).
Since none of this works I'm out of ideas. Eventhough I have a 6G Nano it should no longer be under warranty since I was sent it as a replacement for a different (older) product.
Any ideas? Is this a known problem? Thanks in advance for any insight any of you could provide. Also, what time is it??
Regards,Hey,
I have the exact same problem as you have described. I also used my ipod as a watch but starting from today, whenever I unlock it the screen turns white until a reset is done. Even a factory reset through itunes didn't fix it.
Have you found any solution?
Bah, this is annoying.

The Mac turns on, says it can't see the drive. Any ideas as to what is causing this, I'm thinking its the cable, are these easy to come buy? And would this even be the answer?
Yes it is the Cable. Replace it and you will be Good To Go.

It doesn't happen all of the time, but the Macbook Pro will periodically play live street sounds for as long as the session is open. We have checked to see if city cams are being monitored. We are not even using the browser. When I disconnect from wifi it stopped. Turned internet back on and it was still there. Even stranger, a month ago we heard kitchen sounds as in a big restaurant. What the heck?
I have not heard of this. I know there is a Malware for Windows that will open multiple audio streams as soon as you log into windows which causes both the system and internet to slow to a crawl and sounds like someone playing the radio and changing stations but I have not seen or heard of that happening on a mac.
Have you checked the dashboard to make sure there isn't a dashboard app running that is causing this? Try running EtreCheck and posting the result here. It should list some of the apps that are loading in the background. -
My MacBook Pro is up to date on updates and it's a Westinghouse television with a rocket fish hdmi connecting cord.
What MacBook Pro have you got? Not all MacBooks Pro can transfer audio through Mini DisplayPort, Thunderbolt or HDMI > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4241
If you have connected the TV to your Mac through Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt and your computer doesn't support audio over that port, you have to connect external speakers -
Need help buying a new computer
Ok so I desperately need a new computer. my current one is 6 years old and is dying on me. What I'm looking for is something that will be able to run games like Knights of the Old Republic, The Sims 2, and eventually Star Wars: The Old Republic once it is released next spring. I don't want something that would be overkill for these games, but enough so that they don't lag and don't look awful. And I'm fine with buying a graphics card separately if it would be cheaper then buying some epic pc. My price range is $800-$1100, preferably $800 ^^; $1100 is like last resort no other option.
so any help would be greatly appreciated
On a side-note, my current pc until recently could play the above games fine, so I know I don't need some epic gaming computer to play them, but I just need help with which companies are reliable and what will be able to handle something like swtor's graphics in the near future.Asus Essentio Desktop / Intel® Core™ i5 Processor / 8GB Memory

Hey! You don't need a powerhouse, but as long as you have such a nice budget, you might as well get something nice. This is my personal recommendation based on specs, hardware and branding. Also, the case doesn't try to be 'too cool', it's a standard, functional case with a little better construction. No video upgrade needed. (This is tower only, if you need a monitor, that's a whole different cup of tea).

The keyboard that is in the Mac is not functioning with the exception of the power button.
Since I am traveling, without a rental car, purchase of an external USB keyboard to troubleshoot and/or resolve the problem is not practical.
How do i wake up the keyboard?Hi Starman65536,
