2010 13" MacBook Pro upgrade 8GB RAM, Startup issues

After upgrading my 2010 13" MacBook Pro to 8GB RAM, it doesn't return from sleep when opening the lid. I have to actually press the power button at least twice to wake it up. Then it shows a status bar as if it's waking from hibernation.

Actually the unibody machines switched from an Intel chipset to the NVidia MCP79 chipset.
The thing is tho, what I dont understand is why both late 2008 and mid 2009 motherboards use the came motherboard (both using the same chipset) and still limit the user from doing this. I thinks its just apple's way of saying "Buy a new computer"
Below in the links, NVidia say that their chipset used in the late 2008 systems can support 8GB but its up to Apple if they want to enable it or not.
It's really not fair at all, its been proven that the late 2008 systems can support the update just by a simple EFI update. *Get on it Apple!*

Macbook pro 13" 8GB ram v's i7 processor

Hi, I am looking at buying a 13" macbook pro and find i have a choice of getting 1. the i5 processor model with 500gb and 8gbRAM or
2. the i7 processor model with 500gb and 4gbRAM for about the same money.
My principal use will be photography work with aperture 3 and photoshop, but i would like to future proof it for advances in technology.
Any advice? Thanks.

I would always recommend getting the best processor, especially if you are concerned about the future, because they cannot be replaced. Memory is easy and cheap to replace yourself and can be done at any time you feel the need, so if aperture 4 comes out for example, and perhaps runs a bit slow you'll have somewhere to go. Memory is also fairly cheap, and will only become cheaper, Look at 'OWC' (google it). This week I ordered 8gb, delivered to England in 2 days and only cost about £80 in total. Also the installation instructional videos are very helpful.
At the moment though the i7 and 4gb will be great for photography, and is what I would buy, and you'll always have that reassurance of being able to put 8 or even 16gb into your machine as and when its needed.
Happy Mac-ing

Year 2010-2011 MacBook Pro version 10.7.4 issues: freezes up, files are loading slowly and buttons are not responding

Hello my fellow Apple product user's. My problem has been going on for about a month and half with my laptop locking up, file folders on my desktop loading slowly and my sleep button and other buttons on my dash board not responding. Where to being with my issues that are listed up in my title and my first scene. The first issue has been my file folders are not loading fast like that did before, the issue is that they load in about 10-15 if not a little longer after I log into my laptop desktop. The second issue is that my sleep button does not respond to sleep right away, I have to press it three or four different times after I have logged out of my desktop to make it go to sleep. The final problem is dealing with my buttons and laptop locking up, when I started an application called runescape after it load to the log in screen and after I came back to log into the game it decide to lock up/ froze on me and durning that time my buttons on my dashboard was not responding, so I decide to command q to quit the application and after that buttons were not reponding to it and I decide to do common and control c to see if it would work and it did and after that everything has been working fine except for the files are loading slowly. Also I had another issue with the laptop sleeping so quick as soon I am using the Internet. There was one other problem that had happen to me just like my description in my first scene, but I do not remember that issue.

Hi i recently bought 8gb of ram and installed it in my mid 2010 13' macbook pro, but whenever i start my computer it freezes at the apple sign in the startup. I just put back my default 4gb of ram back into my computer and it runs fine. Any suggestions?

jamiesfromportland, greetings: I do not take issue with your very valid reasons for purchasing RAM from Apple. However by recommending not to purchase RAM from third party vendors I would suggest is unfounded advice. Most of the problems that occur with third party RAM are attributable to the lack of adherence to the required specifications, viz. this post.
I would be willing to wager that purchasing RAM from reputable vendors such as OWC or Crucial one would find similar fail/success ratios as those purchased from Apple. In both cases this assumes that the specifications are adhered to.
I have always purchased RAM upgrades from third party vendors with no performance issues. True that I do so to save money but I do not skimp on quality.
Ciao.

Why can't I use my mid 2010 macbook pro with 8GB memoir and NVIDIA GEForce GT 330M 256MB to run 3D in photoshop CC?

Why can't I use my mid 2010 macbook pro with 8GB memoir and NVIDIA GEForce GT 330M 256MB to run 3D in photoshop CC?

3-D is very memory intensive.
System requirements | Photoshop
Mac OS
Multicore Intel processor with 64-bit support
Mac OS X v10.7, v10.8, or v10.9
2 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended)
3.2 GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
1024x768 display (1280x800 recommended) with 16-bit color and 512 MB of VRAM (1 GB recommended)**
OpenGL 2.0–capable system
Internet connection and registration are necessary for required software activation, membership validation, and access to online services.*
** 3D features are disabled and some Mercury Graphics Engine enhanced features may not work with less than 512 MB VRAM. Read the Help article.
Bottom line, you don't have enough VRAM

Kernel Panic after installing 16 GB RAM in 2010 13" MacBook Pro

Hi
I have been having some problems with my 2010 13" MacBook Pro.
After installing 16 GB RAM, made by Corsair, I have had four Kernel Panics so far.
The thing is that the RAM are 1333 MHz, and my computer only takes 1066 MHz RAM. But I downclocked both the sticks to 1066 MHz, so it should work right? They also passed Memtest86, so I don't know what is wrong.
I also did a clean install of Mountain Lion, on a brand new hard drive, but I had another Kernel Panic.
Here is the latest log:

You installed the incorrect ram. Get the ram specified for your computer. In theory ram should downclock to the computer's bus speed but in practice this does not always work, as you found out.

DDR3 RAM compatibility with both Macmini (Mid 2010) and Macbook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2009)

Is the DDR3 Memory Module compatible with both Macmini (Mid 2010) and Macbook Pro (13 inch Mid 2009) models
If thats the case I can buy 8 GB (4 GB * 2) then have my RAM already in my Macbook Pro to my Macmini
Thanks
Shas

Agreed! This bug with the ringtone delay (№4.1) is really annoying

I hear my 2010 17" Macbook Pro starting but no picture on screen. HELP!

I have a 2010 17" macbook pro with no upgrades besides software updates, instillation and small normal things like those. I left it on one night when i fell asleep listening to pandora (internet radio). The next morning i connected the charger to it and tried turning it on. I heard the top left part of the key board (opposite to the cd drive) come to life but couldn't hear the cd drive boot up. Neither the keyboard or screen light up either. I tried changing the RAMs but that was't the case. Any help?

Is the small "sleep" light at the front blinking or pulsing slowly, or off?
It would have gone into sleep mode automatically when the battery falls below a certain point. Sometimes they need to have a little charge in addition to the power adapter before you can wake them up (by pressing Return, not by pressing the Power switch). Replacing the RAM in the middle of this state complicates things.
You might try a Force Power Off by holding the power down for 10 seconds, wait a bit, then power up again.

Mid 2010 15" Macbook Pro Random Shut down and Restart

I know this questions have more than likely come up a few times. But I have a mid 2010 15" Macbook pro that, for the last year, has randomly shut-down and restated displaying an error message each time. I have had this computer into three different computer repair shops over the last few months, two of which were apple certified, and have had a range of reasons provided for the issue. Anything from Motherboard to hard drive to virus. I have replaced the hard drive, did a complete reformat three times, and downgraded my OSX. But I still have the same issue. I recently came across some support tickets referring to an issue with this model of Mac, something to do with the graphics card. I downloaded a program that was supposed to be a work around, but am still having shutdown issues. I also heard that apple did a free replacement of the motherboard on these machines within 3 yeas of purchase. Obviously I am past that point, but I was hoping that there would be some other suggestions. I have ran an etrecheck on my machine and have attached it below. Can anyone provided any ideas of how I can fix this without having to buy a new motherboard?
Thanks for the help...
Cheers,

Why is the 2010 i7 MacBook Pro so laggy on Lion?

Now, here's my issue: my 2009 iMac works with lion perfectly with all applications. My MacBook Air, which I'll admit, I don't use much, appears to work fine under Lion; however, my 2010 i7 MacBook Pro is just pathetic at times. Now, it's most apparent in Safari, maybe that's just because I use Safari most often, where scrolling and zooming is very laggy. Sometimes I'll expand my fingers and have to wait a good 2 seconds or more to see the zoom animation cut through where it's supposed to be, relative to how far apart my fingers are. This does not happen on my 2009 iMac with the Magic mouse hooked up, but it is quad-core i7 vs the MacBook Pro's dual-core i7. It just doesn't make sense though. I know the Sandybridge i5's in the lowend MacBook Pros are more powerful than my i7 MacBook Pro, but they can't be so much more powerful that they lack all of these animation defects, while I feel them full force, right? Maybe it's the GPU? I honestly haven't tried keeping my Pro set to it's GT 330m because I thought it to be more of a CPU issue because the animation sems so simple even for the Intel Graphics 2000. I also see a huge issue when entering text in a text field, though this also happens in pages. I'll type words and they wont appear until seconds after. I'm rather perplexed at this issue, is the problem Lion? Should I report this under Apple Care, or what? Thanx for the help, guys!

Back up your Mac if you have not done so already. To learn how to use Time Machine read Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support.
Kaspersky cannot possibly convey any benefit and its presence will only complicate troubleshooting. Uninstall it according to its instructions. This document may help, though it appears woefully outdated: http://support.kaspersky.com/8366. Unfortunately I can't help any more than that. I attempted to install Kaspersky to evaluate it, but the installer repeatedly failed for reasons I was unable to determine.
Determine if the problems also exist in Safe Mode:
Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.
System performance problems for reasons that cannot be isolated to any other cause justify an SMC reset. Be sure to read the procedure carefully and follow all the steps exactly as written, even if they seem inapplicable or trivial.
Corsair RAM is known to be deficient on Macs, and Google products are notorious for causing Macs to perform poorly.

Late 2011 17" Macbook Pro upgrade advice needed

Hey everybody, I would like to u[grade my Late 2011 17" Macbook Pro.
8GB DDR3 RAM
750GB HDD
OSX 10.7.4
So after reading on Crucial.com that I could house 16gb ram, despite what apple said, I investigated this and according to people this is tr
So my next question is, will i be able to fit a 512GB SSD from Crucial into my MBP? THe only reason I feel it's a valid question is I had the option of 1 and 2Tb Hdds WITH a 256GB SSD.
Thanks for reading everybody

The only way that you can use both a SSD in your drive bay and another hard drive is to install the hard drive in your optical bay. If you're willing to give up your optical drive, OWC sells kits to do just that.
Then you could use your external drives for data storage & backups.
Is this a workable option?
Clinton
