Although Apple states a maximum of 8 GB, OWC (macsales.com) has tested 16 GB, so if you want to install 16 GB, I'd go with OWC as they tested it and do guarantee their RAM to work with Macs.

    Hi,
    8GB is the max as mentioned in the following link:
       http://www.crucial.com/uk/upgrade/HP+-+Compaq-memory/Pavilion+DV6+Series/Pavilion+dv6-6b26sa-upgrade...
    You can swap 2GB for 4GB to make 8GB or swap both or just stick with 6GB unless you want to run virtual machine(s).
    Regards.

    Download Mactracker.  This software will tell you the max amount of RAM your model iMac can handle.

  • Can not shut down late 2011 MacBook Pro and turn it back on again without the hard drive disappearing?

    Ok, I have searched for months for an answer to this question to no avail, probably because no one has experienced it before. I am hoping however that you guys can help me figure this one out cause it is driving me nuts! Also, I am not entirely sure what section of the support I should put this under so if I stick it in the wrong place, I apologize.
    Right now my problem is very simple. When I turn off my laptop, and then try to turn it back on, my internal hard drive disappears... and I get the blinking folder with a question mark on it. I have figured out something interesting however. I have an install disk with Ubuntu Linux on it. If I boot into that first, then RESTART the laptop, not shut down and turn back on, it reads the internal hard drive just fine and I can boot as if there is nothing wrong.
    Second part to the problem... If I allow the laptop in either OSX or Windows to go to sleep (aka shut off the hard drive but the computer remains on), when I attempt to wake it up, I am greeted with the usual log in screen of whichever OS I am in, but is frozen and after a few seconds goes black and restarts the computer to find that... Surprise! The hard drive is gone
    I have tried every trick in the book that I can think of, but can not seem to come up with a solution to the problem... I know when the problem happened and if anyone thinks that that will help them figure this out I will type everything I did up till, including the crash that caused this, and my attempted fixes, but I have class right now so only if you guys want it I will type all that out.
    What I am currently running is:
    2011 MacBook Pro 13in screen
    4Gb of Ram
    1TB internal Hard Drive
    OSX 10.11.whatever the newest update is... just updated the other day again.
    Windows 8.1 on BootCamp 5 (yea I know its not supposed to work but it does) again, fully updated
    Ubuntu 13.10 (I think? Doesn't really matter, its just an install disk I use to boot the computer)
    If there is anything else that you guys need me to provide, I can, just simply ask. I can provide as much info as is necessary.

    Sorry it took me so long to write back, But unfortunately this didn't help my issue.
    My uncle and I did a lot of tests on this computer and have narrowed down the location of the problem a little bit.
    We tried to first reset the SMC and the NVRAM as suggested, but the only thing that did was make the fans run on full tilt for the first session after restarting it for some reason. After that we tried re installing OSX over the OSX that was already on the system (not removing any of the files). This also didn't do anything but make refit stop working. Then we moved onto the next task at hand by removing the hard drive entirely and booting it as an external drive from one of the USB ports... as long as you booted it with the options key held down, it worked perfectly fine. Then we put an alternative hard drive into the computer and installed OSX on that. This time there was no trouble booting anything up. Everything seemed to work flawlessly. So we made a backup of my original drive (OSX, Windows, and all) onto an external hard drive and tested booting to it via USB. That again worked perfectly fine and booted right up with no problems. So after that we formatted the original hard drive and reinstated OSX. We then proceeded to transfer all the old files from the backup onto this new installation and LOW AND BEHOLD..... we were back to square one with it refusing to recognize the hard drive again.
    So this basically told us that there appears to be something either wrong with the hard drive, or something got really screwed up in the software along the lines and by me copying all my old files back over, I just ended up bringing the screwed up file back over with it! (despite not copying over any settings of any kind) So I am still extremely confused as to what is going wrong... did some boot sector possibly get screwed up may be?

  • What is the maximum amount of RAM allowed for a HP Pavilion dv6-7010eo?

    Wanting to upgrade the RAM in our Pavilion dv6-7010eo running Window 7 (64 bit).
    Have read some conflicting information.. Some say that this model supports 16GB (2x8GB) whereas other say that it only supports 8GB (2x4GB)... 
    What is correct? 8GB or 16GB?

    Every place I can find information about your actual laptop dv6-7010eo, not 7010us, it says 8 gb max.

    In general, for best performance, it's best to match up the same size modules in each slot (2x2 in this case). However, given that it's only going to read 3GB, I'm not sure if that holds true here.

    Another upgrade which may come first if not already, is to RAM with an increase in total capacity.

    http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_133 3MHz_SDRAM
    Given Mavericks OS X 10.9.5 is said to no longer be available, you may wish to try your luck first
    with Mountain Lion 10.8.5 just in case your older computer does not like Yosemite 10.10.1. From
    what I understand, you'd likely pay a fee to get & use Mt Lion. That may be worth it, if the unit
    does not prefer Yosemite; and it may be difficult to revert to an older one after installing 10.10.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Whats the maximum amount of ram and storage space i can fit into my 13" matchbook pro (early 2011)

    I am looking to upgrade my mackbook pro and was wondering what's the highest amount of ram and maximum amount of hard drive space i can get.
    also whats a good brand i should use for both ram and hard drive.

    I like Hitachi (HGST) and have 6 of them in my inventory.  I never had any WD drives and there are some who do not speak well of them who's opinions I respect.
    I also have many Seagate HDDs and currently have 1 TB Seagate SSHDs in my MBPs.  They are performing satisfactorily.
    Ciao.

  • What's the maximum size a varchar2  variable can hold for and NDS Stmnt?

    What's the maximum size a varchar2 variable can hold for and NDS Statement? I read that NDS is good for doing EXECUTE IMMEDIATE on statements that aren't too big. The 10g PL/SQL manual recommends using DBMS_SQL for statements that are too large, but it never gave a limit for what too large was. Does anyone know offhand?

    The limit is the same as the length of varchar2 variable within PL/SQL - that is varchar2(32767).It's not documented, but intermediate concatenation result can hold up to (64k-1) :
    Connected to:
    Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.8.0 - Production
    declare
      part1 varchar2(32767) := rpad('begin null;', 32767);
      part2 varchar2(32767) := lpad('end;',        32767);
    begin
      dbms_output.put_line(length(part1 || ' ' || /*' ' ||*/ part2));
      execute immediate part1 || ' ' || part2;

  • What is the maximum number of columns that can be displayed by sqlplus?

    Hello,
    Questions:
    Is there a limit on what sqlplus can display?
    What is the maximum number of columns that can be displayed by sqlplus?
    I cannot find anything on this in my search. I checked the limits page:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14357/apa.htm#sthref3658
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16604/apa.htm#i635278
    It does not specify any column limits; however, I'm thinking it is tied to LINESIZE which is system dependent.
    Please confirm if true.
    Thanks!

    Received answer directly from SQL*Plus Development:
    "sqlplus does not have a limit on the number of columns it displays."
    They created a table with more than 256 columns with data and had no problem retrieving the data.

  • TS1503 what is the maximum number of pictures I can store and keep on my iPhone 3G?

    What is the maximum number of pictures I can store (and keep indefinitely) on my iPhone 3GS (8GB)?

    It is a balancing act between your photos and everything else you have on the device (apps, mail, messages, etc.), so there is no specific "number" we can give you. Just keep track of your available memory, and make sure you back up your photos regularly so if you reach the maximum memory capacity, you can delete the oldest ones without worrying that they are not saved somewhere else:
