1gb memory now, should I go to 2gb?

I love my Macbook a lot but it is SO SLOW with what I'm doing.
I run Ableton, Camino and share files with my girlfriend over our wireless and this thing is absolutely dog slow. I can launch Live, Camino and have an iChat with my honey and it's almost unresponsive.
I've got my 30gb Ipod, M Audio Axiom, MOTU Ultralite, NI 4Control and a 160 gb firewire drive attached and that's it.
2gb is tempting but is it going to make any difference whatsoever or is this just what the Macbook is like and I should learn to live with it.
I'm using it with an external monitor in clamshell mode if it makes any difference, DVI Widescreen at 1680x1050.
The other thing that bugs me, and I'm sure I should start another thread about it is that the remote is unbelieveably unresponsive, like click wait 5 minutes, click, spinning beach ball, etc etc with the eventual hard power off.
UNIX systems shouldn't be like this, it's kinda getting on my nerves

Running this over the weekend with a reboot I've got
about 1.7 Million Page In and 75,000 Page Outs ... do
you think this is a good indication that I need some
more memory?
That's working normal for 1GB of RAM. I would go with 2GB though. I think you may be running into problems with that monitor attached. The graphics circuit uses memory from your 1GB of RAM. It doesn't have it's own dedicated RAM like a MacBook Pro does.

Which model of memory upgrade should I get for my MacBook Pro early 2011 model? I now have 2 - 2GB modules.

Which model of memory upgrade should I get for my MacBook Pro early 2011 model? I now have 2 - 2GB modules.

Installing RAM in a 2011-2012 MacBook Pro
There is really only one way to install RAM into a 2011-2012 MacBook Pro and while there are hundreds of DIY videos online, I just like this one, found on YouTube, by “macmixing”.
Note that there is a difference in the RAM that should be used in 2011 and 2012 models.
2011 models must use:
•204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
And 2012 models must use:
•204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
So here's the video:
Remember that the 13", 15" and 17" 2011 models (early or late) and the 13" and 15" mid-2012 non-Retina models can handle 4GB, 8GB or (unofficially, but, believe me, it works) 16GB of RAM. There are, in my opinion, only two 100% Mac-compatible vendors out there: Crucial and OWC. I really can't recommend any other brands, even though it may work, as these are the only brands that I've personally used in quite a while. Also remember to stay away from any RAM that is a “value” brand - Macs are picky about RAM and often these value RAM modules just don’t work very well.
Good luck,
Clinton

I need to upgrade memory slots on my Mac mid 2010 up to 4 GB module which is currently 2GB with two different 1GB memory slots.Is it compatible and would like to know about the cost?

I need to upgrade memory slots on my Mac mid 2010 up to 4 GB module which is currently 2GB with two different 1GB memory slots.Is it compatible and would like to know about the cost?

this sub forum is about running windows on macs maybe you should try
https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook

Can i use 2gb memory in one slot in my 2006 Mac mini as the 2 slots of 1gb only reports only 1gb memory, both memory work ok in the one slot

Can I use 2gb memory in one slot in my 2006 Mac mini as the 2 slots of 1gb only reports as 1gb memory, both memory work ok in the one slot as I have swapped them over

To my knowledge 1GB modules are the max. size for the 2006 Mini.
2GB modules are not recognized/useable.
Sorry

Slow iMac, kernel_task using 1GB memory

My iMac has been running slower and slower over the past year or so. The problem seems to come and go, but I have been noticing increasing tendency for applications to hang, or to get stuck for minutes with spinning beach balls. I've been carrying forward software and installations going all the way back to OS X 10.0 (from previous machines) and I probably have made some poor choices regarding installing third-party software in the past.
I've seen some very helpful advice in this forum given to others (for example, here) so I thought I would post my problem here.
I've been watching Activity Monitor, and the only thing I've noticed that seems consistently out of place is that kernel_task is using about 1GB of RAM. (It was using about 2GB of RAM until I uninstalled Virtual Box, which clearly was a big part of my problems).
I am fully backed up redundantly (locally via Time Machine and remotely via BackBlaze). I'm holding off upgrading to Yosemite until I can clean this issue up (unless you think it would help).
Below you will find posted two diagnostic reports. The first is EtreCheck, followed by the results of the Terminal script posted by Linc Davis in this thread
I hope that's sufficient to help the geniuses reading this forum give me some advice. Thank you in advance for your help.

Try a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

IMac G5 system hang - 2 bad 1GB memory modules?

I am experiencing intermittent system hangs, requiring power off / on to recover. Applications run fine for hours, then everything freezes; a few seconds later the fans spool up full bore. There seems to be no logic to the failure. It happens on many different applications, including Disk Utility. No new software has been added recently (other than Apple software updates). This has been occuring for several weeks.
I repair permissions & run disk verify. When disk utility runs completely without hanging (on verify), everything is ok.
Applecare had me trash the ~/Library/Caches & system caches. No joy. They recommended archive & install beginning with Panther. Reinstall went ok until downloading updates for 10.4.8, then hang (might this suggest a hardware prob?).
Rebooted in target firewire mode the cloned drive, then zero'ed the G5 HDD and restored from clone (SuperDuper!). Everything appeared ok for several days, then the same system hang reappeared. I should mention that in the course of sudying this one, I discovered Virex 7.5 was sucking the processing life from the G5; used the uninstaller to get rid of it & the iMac is quiet again!
I have run the Applecare version of Techtools and the Hardware Test Disk, everything passes.
I could do a clean install of Tiger, then use migration assistant to move data from the clone...if I felt it had a chance to solve it. On the other hand, maybe its a flaky hardware gremlin and I'm wasting my time doing reinstalls, and I should hustle it over to the local Apple store.
Update - took iMac for service at Apple store where it failed under stress test with my 2 GB of memory but ran for an extended period with Apple memory. In an attempt to isolate which of the two 1 GB modules was bad, removed one module. Identical failure after 24 hrs. Howver, swapping out that failing module with the second module, identical hand. That suggests either both 1 GB modules are bad (unikely), or some other hardware issue is the problem.
Problem seems to occur most often when starting playing iTunes, or running Disk Utility (repair permissions).
I suppose the next step is to buy 1 GB of memory from Apple and make it fail again. Any suggestions?

Thank you for your posts, I appreciate it.
Skip - I tried a spare keyboard & mouse. Still failed.
MGW - all software is up to date.
DaddyPaycheck - I downloaded memtestosx. It fails testing each 1GB memory module separately (in different sockets). I'm running in multiuser mode and when it fails the entire iMac freezes up (just like it always does), requiring power off / power on. Is this normal behavior when the memtestosx test fails?
I will plan to test in single user mode as the supplied doc states that if the onboard cache is failing it would pass singleuser (cache apparently disabled in singleuser mode) but fail multiuser. Maybe the onboard cache is bad?
Thanks.

Mixing a 1GB memory (DDR3 1067Mhz) with a 4gb (DDR3 1333MHZ)

hi there
i currently have 2gb (2x1) ddr3 1067mhz on my macbook pro. I'm thinking of upgrading it to 5gb, so I would take off one of the 1gb memories and insert a 4gb one.
problem (?) is, the 1gb memory is 1067 and the 4gb one is 1333. when I asked the seller (on ebay) about this, this is what he replied:
"Hello thanks for contacting us. The brand we use
is Dane-Elec and the memory speed is 1333MHz but
they are backwards compatible to clock back to
1067MHz no problem."
First of all, is this possible ? And even if it is, he probably doesn't know I'm mixing a 1067Mhz memory with a 1333mhz one.. can anyone clarify this for me ? Thank you !
Rick.

While that's technically right, it's wrong for the mac.
True enough, I didn't try too hard to downclock the memory on my trials, because I believe it's just not possible to do on the mac. Anyway I've managed to do 3 experiments proving that 1333 just won't run on a core 2 duo made to work with 1066.
1. 2x 2GB 1333 Kingston - crash
2. 1GB 1067 original with my mac + 4GB 1333 OCZ - works
3. 2x 4GB 1333 OCZ - crash
The Bus Speed will always stay at 1.07 GHz and the Memory Speed, if matched with another 1333, will stay at 1333, and will crash your system. It WON'T work at all!
At other hand, if you join 4GB 1333 with 1GB 1067, the bigger and faster one will automatically downclock to adjust and everything will work just fine. You'll sure lose the dual channel, but it's worth it (strictly technically speaking, not considering market and costs).

IdeaPad S10 w/ 1GB Memory

Hi. I would order the S10 right now, since I need a new ultraportable laptop for college, which starts next week. But 512MB of memory is kind of limited for me.
So, I'd like to know when will the S10 with 1GB memory be available for purchase online on lenovo.com.
I'd appreciate any helpful information.
Thank you.

In attempting to install recommended software updates I get a message saying my startup disc is full. I have an Intel-based desktop with 1GB memory. What can I safely remove?

In attempting to install recommended software updates I get a message that my startup disc is full. I have an iMac (intel-based) with 1GB memory. I suspect my iTunes library is using up much of the space (I have no movies installed and have already copied most of my photos to a DVD to free up space). If I follow the instructions to move my iTunes library to an external HD (can I use a flash drive?) will I have enough working memory to plug it back in for use when I want to access the library?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Moving libraries off the boot disk while doable is not very viable. It creates many new problems in backing up your data, as now you have more than one source to backup. See my backup FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
My suggestion is to get at least two copies of all your essential data in one manner or another, and get a larger boot hard drive to replace what you currently use to be able to consolidate your libraries.
As for cleaning space, see my FAQ*:
http://www.macmaps.com/diskfull.html

Can I expand the RAM of an Equium M50 with 1GB memory module?

Someone told me that Equium M50 only recognise 512 MB memory module. The Toshiba manual does not specify. It is true?
Thank you for any help
Cheers

Hi Francisco
No, this is not correct. The guy who told this was not right and I assume he has no Equium A50 experience.
As far as I know the memory on Equium A50 notebook can be upgraded up to 2048MB.
So you have to use 2 x 1024MB (1GB) memory modules if you want to upgrade the memory to 2GB.
For me its clear. The Equium A50 recognizes bigger memory size as 512MB.
Do you know what modules are compatible and can be used???
On the Toshiba Options & Accessories website you will find the supported modules:
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-2M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-2M1G)
I hope I was clear enough ;)
Regards

My Macbook 4,1 came with 1 GB of memory. Only 512MB shows up in the activity monitor. I just upgraded the memory to 4 GB. Although 2GB shows up in DIMM0 and DIMM1 it still only says I have 512MB of memory. Can someone help?

So when you go to  > About This Mac - How it should say how much ram there. Click on More Info - And click on Memory - What is in those fields?

Does anyone know what nokia phones accept the 1GB memory card and are the phones any good?
Many thanks

"Bridge is running low on memory and should be restarted" error

I am running Bridge CS4 on a DELL T-1650 with plenty of hard drive space. I am having trouble with indexing / caching files. My computer is connected to a large office server with a large amount of files that I need to be able to search. I recieve a "Bridge is running low on memory and should be restarted" error each time I attempt to index the files on the server drive. I have tried Purge and Cache, set the cache memory slider to max. This is a very large amount of files (TB ) to index /cache. I leave the computer running overnight to allow ample time, I nothing on my TB hard drive , and have 16GB of available RAM. Any ideas?

Aha! Working over a network is not supported by Adobe.
This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
See:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work. It should.
Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

I had OS Maverick and downloaded OS X Yosemite and then cleared the mistakenly cleared the hard-drive while trying to re-download OS Maverick and now should I re-download OS X Yosemite in attempts of getting the pictures, videos, and documents back?

No; try using a data recovery product such as the ones listed here. Don't write anything else to the drive until the files are recovered or you choose not to recover them.
