The older iMac 24's take DDR2-667 modules, whereas the new Macbooks take DDR3. You can't use memory from the former in the latter, or vice versa.
Yeah - but this is the original MacBook forum, and the model series given (MacBook 2,2) would seem to indicate a mid-2007 MacBook which came with PC2-5300 (DDR2 667) 200-pin SODIMMs standard.
It should work, but can't be guaranteed. Most memories should have the "serial presence detect" EEPROM that will list all supported speeds. The SPD EEPROM is a small, permanently-programmed memory that contains coded information (in a standardized format) for all the various configurations that the memory can support. Most PC2-6400 modules should be backwards compatible in PC2-5300 applications. They come in the same "form factor" of a 200-pin SODIMM.
It's worth an effort to try. The worst (with due physical care) that could happen is that it doesn't work and fails to get past power on self test.

  • How do i get more memory on my mac book air? is says that i can add 2 more gig how?

    how do i get more memory on my mac book air? is says that i can add 2 more gig ??? or wat files can i delete

    Macbook Air memory is soldered to the logicboard.
    You can only get 4GB or 8GB (2012 Models) in the Air when you order it that way.  Otherwise, you're stuck with 2GB.
    Unless you're talking about hard drive space - then it is upgradeable - click HERE to see which one corresponds to your model.

  • I am trying to install a program on my Mac Book Pro Retina from a Apple SuperDrive. Every time I run the installer, it says I do not have enough memory to install. However, I definitely have enough memory (186.74 GB). Any ideas why?

    I am trying to install a program on my Mac Book Pro Retina from a Apple SuperDrive. Every time I run the installer, it says I do not have enough memory to install. However, I definitely have enough memory (186.74 GB). The program takes only 550 MB. Any ideas why?

    Thanks for the clarification on the terms. I consider myself proficent at my computer, but not exactly in its inner-workings! I have 8 GB of memory installed.
    I am still confused as to why I do not have any space for the program. This is the exact error message I get: "There is not enough free space on Macintosh HD disk. The Print Shop 2 application requires about 550 MB to be installed. Free some disk space and try again."
    Thank you again for your help.

  • How can I use my external hard drive for my iphoto instead of my mac book pro memory?

    i don't know if this question has been asked before: how can I use my external hard drive for my iphoto instead of my mac book pro memory? just like itunes all my song are save on my external hard drive. make sense?

    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • How can I make my mac book pro read a SDHC memory card

  • I had a brand new Mac book pro one month old and the hard drive died. Right before it died I was down loading pictures off a memory card and now they aren't on my memory card! They are wedding pictures I took for a friend and irreplaceable! Please help!!

    I had a one month old Mac book pro and the hard drive fried! I was down loading a friends wedding pictures when it stopped working and started heating up. I plugged it in and turned it off as it was making a clicking noise. When I turned it back on the was a grey box with a question mark and nothing else. When I took my memory card out the pictures were gone. I took it back to best buy where I bought it and they said it was dead, needed a new hard drive and all my info is lost! Is there any way to get back those irreplaceable wedding pictures?

    There are some data recovery programs (software). I would look into that for the images on the card. When files are deleted, the files are still there, just the headers are removed. That being said, a format of the card or new files written to the card can overwrite deleted files.
    The physical hard drive could be thousands of dollars to forensically save, with no guarantee.

  • How much memory can I install in my mac book pro?

    Mac book pro 2.4 GHz late 2011 i7....How much memory can I install? Currently have 4Gb but want to run Win 7 on VMware and want to make sure my user has enough

    The position of Apple is that the Late 2011 can take 8 GB, however, OWC, http://www.macsales.com and Crucial, http://www.crucial.com both guarantee their 16 GB ram packages to work.  Both are sellers of high quality ram that is guaranteed to work in Macs.

  • Memory Upgrade to Mac Book Pro 13.3" late 2011

    I have Mac Book Pro 13.3" Late 2011 edition.i want to upgrade memory from 4 Gb to 16 Gb.would be possible as it says it does support only 8 Gb.

    Yes, you can upgrade to 16GB - all 2011-2012 non-Retina models can be upgraded to 16GB.
    Your Mac uses the same type of memory as mine - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMMs. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270.
    Crucial, Corsair & OWC all manufacture RAM specifically 'made for Macs'. To start, I would visit the Crucial website and use their System Scanner to show the possible upgrade paths for your machine.
    Good luck - call back with any questions.

  • Increase mac book air memory storage

    hello  to every one,
    i got a mac book air running os x mavericks  13 inch and has an HDD of 128giga, is that possible for me to increase the memory or replace the hard disk?

    The memory is not upgradeable after the original purchase but SSD (it has an SSD not a HDD) may be depending on how old it is. The following is a link to one reputable place that has SSD upgrades for older models: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC/Air-Retina

  • Mac Book OSX 10..4 Memory

    I just bouhgt a Mac Book 1.83GHZ Duo Core with 60G of memory... However I only show 34G left. Did Apple install that much software to warrant using up 25G of memory..?

    I just bouhgt a Mac Book 1.83GHZ Duo Core with 60G of
    memory... However I only show 34G left. Did Apple
    install that much software to warrant using up 25G of
    memory..?
    Part of what you are noticing is the difference in how hard drive capacities are reported by the manufacturer vs. how your computer interprets capacity.
    Hard drive manufacturers report capacity using base 10 numbers where 1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. Your computer which is based on binary uses as base 2 calculation and considers 1GB to equal 1,073,741,824 Bytes.
    Look at your 60GB hard drive capacity as 60,000,000,000 and divide that by what the computer considers as 1GB 1,073,741,824. Your result will be around 55.879GB.
    That accounts for where 4+ GB of the "60GB" went right from the start.
    Formatting also takes a small amount of space for cataloging data. This varies depending on operating system and the type of format used. This is another reason manufacturers never advertise a "formatted" capacity for their drives.
    If you have not installed anything else on the computer yet then yes the rest is being used by the OS and whatever else has been installed on it by Apple.
    You may wish to un-install Trial software and any other applications you know you will never use in order to regain some hard drive space.
    Sorry if this was a lengthier answer than you wanted. Tried to balance between giving details while leaving a lot out of what is really a much more technical answer than I gave.

    Sorry for my english, i talk french.

    Ok ce n'est pas le problème alors.
    Boot à partir de votre disque d'installation et de lancerl'utilitaire de disque. Le disque de démarrage peut être nécessaire de réparation.
    Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
    Ok that's not the problem then.
    Boot from your install disc and run Disk Utility. The startup disk may need repairing.
