2 gig DIMM in a 2.16 ghz Intel Core Duo

Can I use a 2 gig single module DIMM in a 2.16 ghz Intel Core Duo?
Ramjet says,
[quote]"2Gig Single Module: The 2Gig Single module can only be used in the
MacBook Pro Core2 Duo, not the Core Duo. The MacBook Pro Core2 memory
maximum is 3Gigs with the installation of one 2Gig SO-DIMM, and one
1Gig SO-DIMM. If you install two 2Gig SO-DIMMs, OSX will register
4Gigs, but will only be able to use 3Gigs. In the Core2, you may
install the 2Gig SO-DIMM into either slot."[/quote]
Other sites say they are compatible. What is the true poop?
TIA,
Bill

When we tried to put a 2gig stick into a regular Duo unit the Pro would not even work. Nothing wrong with the RAM though since it ran fine in out 2Duo iMacs.

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.

I have a mac book pro, 2006 with an 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo processor, can I update to Lion? to use icloud.

Apple keep telling me I need to update to icloud but I'm not sure if Lion will work on my Mac. I've upgraded to snow leopard which seems to have knackered my .me or .mac account (whatever it's called now), so I don't seem to have any option but to upgrade to Lion if I every want to see my emails again.
Apple say I must have a Intel Core 2 processor for Lion to work...... at least I think that's what they say.

Lion System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
If you have a Core Duo model then you cannot upgrade to Lion. You can upgrade to Snow Leopard, but iCloud is not available for Snow Leopard.
Open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. Look for the Model ID in the displayed information. If you have a MacBookPro 2,1 or later then you have a Core 2 Duo model and can upgrade to Lion.

Old macbook pro3,1 (2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo) camera not working with Mavericks

I have an old macbook pro3,1 (2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo, I think 2007), builtin camera not working and I think it is related to mavericks update.
Anyone had the same problem, and if yes what is the solusion?

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the
     computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager
     screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

My Mac has a 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo, is it going to be compatible with Lion?

My Mac has a 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo, is it going to be compatible with Lion?

Anything I can do, Niel?
Enjoy it and by the time your machine finally kicks the bucket there will be three more cats gone by.
Likely there won't be any keyboards, trackpads, cd/dvd or hard drives or even screens.
They will just stick a Mac-borg implant in your head and you wave your fingers around in the air to access data.
Think of all the money you'll save in between!

2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo/ 2GB ram upgrade ?

Please could someone tell me if I can upgrade my MacBook Pro 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo/ 2 GB SDRAM running 10.6.8 to Lion as I need it to run some 2015 software ?
IF I can, what are the dangers I must look for and will my laptop then be even slower than it is now?
Thank you very much,

I apologise for my ignorance and thank you again.
You have no reason to apologize. We all have to start from the beginning in every endeavor.
I too am very happy with my 2006 MBP however with the introduction of HDTV, the 2006 MBP was not up to the task. That resulted in the purchase of the 2010 17" MBP because I needed that capability. Technological change does often require newer and better equipment. As I have alluded to, I still use the 2006 with great pleasure.
I have also purchased a late 2011 17" MBP which I feel is a slightly better machine than the 2010. The 2011 has SATA3 internal interface whereas the 2010 has SATA2. What this means is that the 2011 MBP can utilize the full potential of current SSDs whereas the 2010 cannot. Do not misunderstand, an SSD in a 2010 will still be a significant performance enhancement. Also a 2011 MBP will accept up to 16GB RAM (also at 1600 MHz) whereas the 2010 can only utilize 8GB RAM (the 2010 13' model being an exception). The 2011 MBPs also have slightly better GPUs than the 2010.
On the plus side for the 2010 MBP, it is more energy efficient than the 2011. In other words, longer battery run time.
The 2011 MBP has a quadcore CPU which is not the great advance that some may lead you to believe. It shines only when a given application can utilize the parallel processing that it affords. Though not as critical, do opt for the fastest CPU available if there is a choice.
I like the 17" displays in the newer MBPs (late 2008 and newer) due to the 1980 x 1200 resolution. That is compatible with HDTV. The retina display are nice, but not nice enough to warrant my purchase of a 15" model.
Both my 2010 and late 2011 MBPs will run any applications that a newer MBP will, but perhaps not quite as fast. Neither is obsolete, yet.
Ciao.

Will my Macbook 13" late 2006 take the RAM from a Macbook Pro 13" 2.4 Ghz Intel Core Duo?

I have a macbook 13" late 2006 and i found it was cheaper to buy a 13" Macbook Pro 2.4 Ghz Intel Core Duo Ram, I was just wondering if the ram out of the pro model will fit my older model?

Some basic guesses from http://www.everymac.com
MacBook 13" Late 2006 is a MacBook2,1 and that uses PC2-5300 DDR2 667 MHz ram.
MacBook Pro 13" did not use 2.4 GHz but the first of the 13" models was the MacBook Pro7,1 and that uses PC3-8500 DDR3 1066 MHz ram.
Those are not compatible and cannot be used interchangeably.

My Imac 2.0 GHz Intel Core Duo keeps powering off

Hi all,
I have a 20inch 2.0 GHz Intel Core Duo (Imac 4.1), Over the last few weeks the Mac would just power off on the odd occasion when using Apeture, I put this down to being the just overworked for processing picture. This seems to have been getting worse and kept occurring more and more often. Light Internet browsing was fine..
I decided after some time to replace the 2gb memory i had to see if that would fix the issue, this seemed to work for a few days then the same issues returned.
I now seeing this issue occured just by opening Safari and decided to rebuild the Imac, I completed the Snowleopard install and all seemed ok for a day then it re-occurred again and seemed to be worse, I then removed the 2gb memory and just kept with the 512mb as when bought... Still it keeps powering off. I have moved to different power sockets and still see the same issues.
Please note in order to power the Imac backup up I have to leave the power out for about 20-30 minutes, If i leave the power plugged in it never boots backup up.
I now decided to even revert back to Lion OS, but it just powers off during the install...
I thinking it sounds like a Power supply issue but would like confirmation before I take it to a repair shop..
cheers
Dan.

As old as your iMac is, have you cleaned out the dust? Dust buildup can lead to over heating issues. Remove any and all things plugged into it including the power cord, Remove the RAM access grille. Vacuum all openings starting with the RAM access area (air intake). Vacuum all ports and plugs, DVD slot and the opening across the top of the rear of the body. Blow compressed air through all your openings and vacuum again to remove any dust you loosend. Reinstall the RAM grille. Plug in the keyboard and mouse if not blue tooth. Insert power cord...
You are now in a perfect position to do a
SMC RESET
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
It is the 5 second timing that initiates the reset.
