  • Can I upgrade to lion when i have a 2 GHz Intel core duo processor ( my computer is 6 years Old)  I have snow leopard now.

    Can I Upgrade my computer to Lion.  I have a 2 GHz Intel Core Duo Processor.  My computer is 6 years old.  Right now I have Snow Leopard.

    I have an old iMac about that age that I upgraded to Lion to test my 3rd party applications for compatibility. It upgraded quite simply. Please backup or save all your info/etc to an external CD/DVD/Hard drive, then try to run the installer. The Lion installer will analize your Mac for compatibility before it does anything, and will alert you to it's decisision. My 17" iMac is also 2 GHZ Intel core duo. Surprisingly for many of the things I use it for it works as good as my multi thousand dollar MacPro workstation. Best of luck. But Lion isn't compatible with many third party applications and drivers for printers; scanners; etc.

  • I have iPhone 4S 16GB using v. 6.1.3 & Macbook Pro 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo OS 10.6.8

    Today I added a new entry in my Address Book on Macbook and also edited an entry on my iPhone Contacts.  I have tried syncing several times and neither is updating on the other device.  Makes me wonder how many other entries are not synced.  Any ideas?

    Sorry, I did not make myself clear.  I am asking for help with the problem of unsuccessful syncing.  In the past (after I finished syncing) the Contacts on my iPhone were identical to the entries in Address Book on my Macbook.  Yesterday I discovered some entries that did not succdessfully sync.  I am asking for help with this problem.

  • Rebuilding aMacBook 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo, hard drive failure so rebuilding system.  Aircard will not stop self-assigning IP address.  Any ideas how to resolve successfully?

    Had hard drive failure on MacBook 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo, so had to rebuild the OS on new drive. Was on Lion 10.7.5 prior to failure, but had to reinstall Snow Leopard 10.6.3 since that was most recent OS on media I had.  After finally getting ethernet connection to router working, was able to get to internet and download / upgrade to 10.6.8.  I assume I can probably buy the upgrade to Mountain Lion 10.8 from there.
    Problem is this, Airport will not stop self-assigning IP address for my wireless connection, and unless I can get wireless back on this laptop, doesn't make a lot of sense to continue the rebuild and reinstall of all the software that was on it prior to HD failure.  Only way to my home network and router is ethernet now.  Everything else on my network (Apple MacBook Pro laptops, iPhones, desktops, and non-Apple printers and laptops) is hooking up to router wirelessly fine.
    Any ideas how to resolve successfully so that the airport will stop self-assigning and allow the router to assign the IP address?

    My 5 yr old 2 GHz Intel Core Duo 20" iMac, right after I disconnected
    an external HD that had been on the desktop (i.e. I forgot to eject it
    properly), started displaying video anomalies (lines); testing
    (TechTool Deluxe 3.1.3) indicates the video is failing.
    The graphics card is an ATI Radeon X1600. Is this reasonably
    replaceable? If so, is the "MPC ClientPro 434 All In One ATI MXM X1600
    PCIe 128MB Video Card" I found on eBay (for $25, used) essentially the
    same unit?
    My soldering skills are, sadly, poor.
    And it only dawned on me a couple days ago that because this iMac does
    not have a Core 2 Duo processor, it will not be able to enter the
    "Lion" generation.
    Thanks,
    Patrick
    PS Are manuals for this model available? I have a copy of the Peachpit
    Apple Training Series "Desktop and Portable Systems, Second Edition"
    but it only goes up to the G5 20" iMac. There doesn't appear to be a
    3rd or later edition in the series.

  • Using new battery on old 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo

    I am in a remote location, under a deadling.  My 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo MacBook Pro battery cable finally went south.  I'm in a studio with half a dozen brand new battery units ... for 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 MacBook Pro's.
    Can I use the battery from a 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7 MacBook Pro on my older 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo???
    All ears,
    Ben

    As I wrote above, there is no possibility of using one of the new batteries in your old machine: it absolutely won't fit. Furthermore, removing the battery from one of the new machines will void the warranty on that machine, so even if you could contrive a wiring harness to connect one of the new batteries externally to your MBP, there would be good reason not to do it.
    And if you did, there is no way to predict how the charging system in your machine would respond to the incorrect battery. Would it be charged at all? Would it be charged only to the capacity of the battery specified for use in your computer, which is far lower than the capacity of the new battery? Would the SMC in your machine recognize the battery and distribute the power from it correctly? The answers to these and many other related questions are anybody's guess.
    So the solution to your immediate problem will be to move your work onto one of the newer computers, finish it up by the deadline, and order a new battery for your own computer.

  • IMac 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7, running Lion 10.7.3, won't recognize external speaker jack, any suggestions?

    iMac 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7, running Lion 10.7.3, won't recognize external speaker jack, any suggestions?  Got a brand new iMac and purchased external speakers for same.  Hooked them into external speaker jack and the computer does not recognize the external speaker jack.  I then plugged them into the external head phone jack and the computer recognized the head phone jack.  How can I get the computer to recognize the speaker jack?

    Thanks "a brody," my mistake, I was mistaking the "audio in" jack for a speaker output jack.  I have some Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 speakers with a built in amplifier that I am using and they sound beautiful.  I do have them plugged into the correct jack, but was thinking there was a speaker out put and headphone out put.
    Thanks again for correcting me, I feel much better now that I know my brand new iMac isn't defective, lol.

  • I'm investigating whether I can take on 'Lion' when it's released. The information states that your mac needs Intel Core 2 Duo. Is this the same as '2 GHz Intel Core Duo' which is what it actually states my mac has?

    I'm investigating whether I can take on 'Lion' when it's released. The information states that your mac needs 'Intel Core 2 Duo'. Is this the same as '2 GHz Intel Core Duo' which is what it actually states my mac has when I click 'About This Mac'?

    I could not agree more! My MBP 2007 Intel Core Duo has had its logic board replaced not to long ago (DVI port died). The original hard drive is running great and I am running Snow Leopard wonderfully.
    I was amped during the keynote and am really looking forward to Lion. I know the community is working hard to uncover a workaround because at present time, the solution (by new!) is not a worthy one. Especially when there is literally, nothing wrong with my existing machine.
    Apple, please ensure Lion will be available for Intel Core Duo machines, we are not that old! The closed architecture approach produces quality hardware. 4 years is a toddler perhaps teenager when it comes to apple hardware and technology. I predict I have at least 3-4 more years left in my current MBP 2007 machine.
    Much Love, Apple!

    New to FCP. Dropped frames when playing section in the timeline w/audio, Viewer plays fine tho. Plays for bout 1 sec with no sound, nothing showing coming through the audio meters. Problem came out the blue, made no conscious changes to settings. FCP 7.0.3. iMac, 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5. OS10.8.4. If any other info needed please let me know, will be happy to provide it. Thanx.

    Thank you for the help. Below is my Source footage and sequence settings.
    The other footage I have on the timeline is an mp3 file made in Garage Band and some footage I sent to Motion to edit. I do have some offline media on there since I switched computers but FCP had been working fine for a few months with it on there. I have not tried trashing my FCP Preferences. If I did would I have to back up my project?

    Here are the requirements for Lion:
    http://osxdaily.com/2011/06/07/mac-os-x-10-7-lion-system-requirements/
    In order to install Lion you have to have Snow Leopard and then update to 10.6.8:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Personally I suggest that you stop at Snow Leopard.  It still is the most efficient OS that Apple has devised and it still works great.  Go to the Lions only if there are feature that you really need.  There may be a price to pay in slower performance though.
    Ciao.

  • Why is my iMac (2.8.GHz Intel Core i7 w/ 4GBs RAM) using so much RAM?

    Right now I have only Firefox open with 4 tabs. Firefox only has 1 extension (1Password). No other application open or running (that I know of). My dock has 17 icons (including basics like trash, finder, launch, etc). As mentioned I have a:
    2.8 GHz
    Intel Core i7
    4 GBs RAM
    21.5 Inch
    Running on 10.7.3 (Lion)
    My RAM situation is this:
    1.83 GB Free
    78 MB Inactive
    1.40 GB Active
    697 MB Wired
    2.17 GB Used
    4.0 GB Total
    Image of my Activity Monitor (with user removed) here:
    columns as follows: PID, Process Name, % CPU, Threads, Real Mem, Kind
    I'm trying to figure out why my iMac is using so much RAM when I only have Firefox open? are any of these activities unnecessary and if so how might I turn them off and so they don't start automatically when I initially turn on the computer? This imac is two weeks old and so I haven't done a whole lot of customization yet. Please help if you can. Really appreciate it. Trying to optimize this baby. Thank you!!

    Here's mine: I have 16 Safari tabs open, some with Flash junk, and 13 apps "open" according to the Dock indicator:
    By the way the number of icons in your Dock has essentially no effect on memory. Only running apps - the ones with the little dot indicator - might be occupying memory. Even that is somewhat of an oversimplification, since "active" apps may or may not have any active processes associated with them. It's all a function of how Lion manages its memory resources, and that is a whole new world to most of us.
    With Lion, Apple is seeking to eliminate the system effects of whether an app is even open or not. Just another trivial detail the average user ought not to be concerned with, in their opinion.
    If you want a cursory introduction to that fascinating subject, Google the Ars Technica Lion review that was written a few months ago. It may ease your concerns about memory management. If you are an experienced computer user, it will rock your world.
