  • I have a 5 year old MBP, 2GHz Intel Core Duo, 1GB MHz, DDR2 SDRAM, running Snow Leopard, 10.6.8.

    I have a 5 year old MBP, 2GHz Intel Core Duo, 1GB MHz, DDR2 SDRAM, running Snow Leopard, 10.6.8.
    I use wireless to connect to the Internet and everything works fine when I sign on.  After being on line for awhile and my remaining battery power at about 60%, I lose connectivity.  I turn off Airport, restart it, and I am asked for my secure password.  I enter the password but cannot reconnect.  So, I shut down the computer for 5 to 10 minutes, restart, and everything works great again.
    Has anyone experienced this behavior and do you have any suggestions as to what is causing the problem.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.
    Lowell

    I think I hit the wrong key ... so here it is again!
    Thank you ...  I keep seeing this i5 and i7 processor mentioned and it is also recommeded that I stream using it. Do you have any suggestions on which MacBook would serve me better? Or is there an upgrade of any kind that will help me?
    Thanks again.

    Can iMac be updated or just get new one? On iMac with OSX10.5.8, 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo--it's so much slower than iPad. It hasn't had cache cleaned or "First aid". I'm wondering if a computer store/techie can clean/update it or better to put $$ towards new?

    If you want to clean up your hard drive some, here are some of my tips, also.
    Hard drive getting full or near full?
    Do a search for and downlaod and install OmniDisk Sweeper and OnyX.
    Here are some of my tips for deleting or archiving data off of your internal hard
    Have you emptied your iMac's Trash icon in the Dock?
    If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
    If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
    Other things you can do to gain space.
    Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive older emails you want to save to disc, Flash drive/s or to ext. hard drive.
    Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
    Again, archive to disc, Flash drive or ext. hard drive and/or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
    Uninstall apps that you no longer use. If the app has a dedicated uninstaller, use it to completely uninstall the app. If the app has no uninstaller, then just drag it to the OS X Trash icon  and empty the Trash.
    Also, if you save old downloaded  .dmg application installer  files, you can either archive and delete these or just delete the ones you think you'll never install, again.
    Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
    When you install and launch it, let it do its thing initially, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run all of the processes in the tabs. Let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
    Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
    If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be thinned out, moved, also, to the external hard drive and then either archived to disc, Flash drive or ext. hard drive and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
    Good Luck!

  • How much RAM can my 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Hold?

    Hello everybody. My question, as written in the subject, is about the RAM in my 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro. I currently have 2GB and would like to move up to four. Can think particular model hold 4GB of RAM total? I believe the answer is yes but just want to make sure...
    Thank you

    rhythmproject:
    Check out your RAM options here at OWC. If you choose to go for six GB you can pull one of the 1 GB modules and install a 4 GB module first for a total of 5 GB and later install the 2 GB module. Or just go the 6 GB at once, in which case you can get the matched pair. OWC offers a small trade in for the modules you pull.
    Good luck.

  • How can i get my Imac, running OSX 10.6.8 with a 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, how can i get Final Cut Pro 4 and DVD studio pro 2 to run on it?

    I just bought an IMAC running OSX 10.6.8 (not sure what flavor that is). The processor is 2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo (Late 2006). When i run Final Cut Pro 4 on it I get the following error.
                        "Configuration error
                           This software requires certain hardware or software which is missing
                                    * AGP graphics Card"
    If Final Cut Pro 4 doesn't run on my system, what version of Final Cut can I run on this as I am a filmmaker and really am comfortable with Final Cut Pro.
    On the same note I also have DVD studio Pro 2 and that just quits without any message.
    Hope any of you can be some help.
    Thank you,
    Doug

    This is my first mac in a long time so i'm not sure about what this mac is as i didn't buy this from apple (ala Amazon). I'm a tad confused about the Intel/PowerPC thing. I do know the software version for sure, but the Intel/PowerPC is very confusing. I just need to find someone who would know about this question. It doesn't say G5 on this computer. Thats my biggest confusion. Help Me...

  • HT4809 I have an iMac running OS X v10.5.8.  The processor is a 2GHz Intel Core 2 duo.  Can I safely upgrade to Lion OS?

    I'd like to upgrade my operating system on my iMac.  Like I said, I have an iMac running OS X v10.5.8.  The processor is a 2GHz Intel Core 2 duo.  Can I safely upgrade to Lion OS?

    You will need SL (10.6.8) to download and install from the App Store. You can buy a thumb drive with Lion and by-pass the SL install, but you are not saving any money by doing it that way.
    Mountain Lion comes out next month. Just in case you want to wait. And be aware that neither Lion or Mountain Lion will run PPC applications.
    Your computer may pass, but check here for full requirements.

  • Can a MacBook Pro1,1 - 2GHz Intel Core Duo be upgraded to Lion or even Leopard?

    Is it possible to upgrade the OS from Tiger to either Lion or Leopard on a MacBookPro1,1  2GHz Intel Core Duo (2006)?  Need to upgrade Adobe Creative Suite and Microsoft software...

    Here's something to consider. I see you have 1G RAM. That works well enough for Tiger 10.4. However, I think Leopard or Snow Leopard will be happier if you increase the RAM.
    Your MBP can handle up to 2G of RAM. It has two RAM slots'In your case, there would be one 512MB module in each slot. You could replace one 512MB module with a 1G module and have a total over 1.5G. That would be a big help. Or replace both. If you are in the US, RAM is not expensive (see: 2.0GB Upgrade Kit                 (1.0GB Modules x 2 Matched) for US$33), and the RAM is easily installed even by the most novice user.
    Here are the Apple Instructions for installing RAM in teh first Gen MacBook Pros:

  • Can i install mountain lion on my macbook 2006, 2ghz intel core 2 duo, 2gb ram?

    hi , is it possible to install mountain lion on my macbook from 2006, 2ghz intel core 2 duo and 2 gb ram
    in the moment i use 10.6.8 and i want to update for installing iwork09, wich requiered 10.7 or more. i need the new iwork, cause my old pages and numbers dont work together with the iwork on my ipad4.
    ok, thank you, nice greetings

    10.7 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store.  The price is $19.99.
    You must have at least a Late 2006 Core 2 Duo model 2,1 MacBook.
    Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
    As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

  • I have an iMac 2GHz Intel Core Duo, what is possible with Lion

    I have an iMac 2GHz Intel Core Duo,  is that possible to operate Lion with this iMac

    Here is the information about  downloading Lion when it is released in July.
    http://www.apple.com/macosx/how-to-buy/
    If you don't meet these requirements, as of now, you wouldn't be able to run Lion.  If anything changes, I am sure Apple will let us know.

  • I just got a MBP Retina. At it's highest resolution, everything is tiny. The olny way to get things to a readable size is to lower the rez, but that defeats the purpose of having it. Am I missing something?

    I just got a MBP Retina. At it's highest resolution, everything is tiny. The only way to get things to a readable size is to lower the rez, but that defeats the purpose of having it. Am I missing something?

    It doesn't defeat the purpose to lower the resolution. When you choose the size you can read, the extra pixels are used to make the text and graphics more detailed, closer to the high print resolution humans have been accustomed to reading on paper for hundreds of years. That is the difference compared to the coarse screen resolution of a conventional (non-Retina) screen.

    Sounds to me like you may have gotten a machine with hardware issues, but it's hard to say.  It will shut down if it gets too hot, but that's not a normal occurrence.  I have never seen a MacBook Pro shut down due to heat, even after lengthy 3D gaming sessions where the fans are running fast and the bottom of the machine is unpleasant to touch.
    First thing I would try to do is reset the SMC.  If that doesn't help, erase the hard drive and reinstall the system from scratch, which you should always do with a used machine anyway.
    If a fresh system doesn't help, you'll need to get it checked out by Apple.
    Edit: Oh, and sig is absolutely right...  please don't post in all caps!  It's very irritating.

  • Mbp 2.53ghz intel core 2 duo over heat

    my mbp is over 70c I installed SMcFanControl and the fan is ruynning about 3,500rpm
    which the normal temp on MBP 2.53ghz intel core 2 duo???
    the status on Istat about the fan say: Fan Exhaust?
    Help please
    greetings

    I have mixed feelings on that subject.  The downside is more wear and tear on the fans and lower battery life. The upside is that, and perhaps more important, it does dissipate more heat.
    I simply take the position that the Apple engineers know what they are dealing with and have designed the cooling system such that additional modifications are not necessary.  However I have on occasions placed my MBP on large aluminum plates to act as large heat sinks when using the MBP for lengthy periods of time where much heat is generated, such as watching video.
    General rule:  If you can keep it cooler, so much the better.
    Ciao.
