800 MHz RAM in MacBook Pro (2008)

Good afternoon.
A question related to an early discussion: I've got a 2008 MacBook Pro with 667MHz RAM.
I noticed the the MacBook Pro has a Data Bus Speed of 800 Mhz. Is this related to RAM? Can I put 800MHz RAM in this computer and would it make any difference?
Cheers,
BurntMonkey

+Can I put 800MHz RAM in this computer and would it make any difference?+
Yes you can but *only if it is 200-pin DDR2 RAM*. No it will not make any difference in performance since the 800MHz bus is already slower than the specified 667MHz RAM, which is double data rate RAM; i.e. the RAM is not the bottleneck.

  • Macbook Pro 2008 (4,1) RAM issues

    Hello all
    I've had some maddening issues with installing new RAM into my Macbook Pro 2008.
    Machine: MBP March 2008 (4,1) , 2.5Ghz, 2GB RAM, OSX 10.7.5
    I ordered and installed a pair of 2GB RAM sticks from Crucial, to replace the two 1GB RAM sticks I had installed, to bring my machine up to a total of 4GB. Since doing that, the machine would kernel panic repeatedly (and sometimes start-up with three beeps, indicating memory issues). After checking repeatedly that they must be the right RAM modules for my machine, I got the sticks replaced by crucial, but afterwards I still had the same issue, so I determined it must be the machine's fault.
    This started an arduous process of testing and trying to fix every aspect of the machine I could think of, resetting the PRAM, repairing permissions trying different combinations of RAM modules, running all the Disk-warrior and TechTool repairs and diagnostics (its clean), running the machine with no third-party devices attached, safe-boot mode, booting from an external drive, and eventually re-installing the entire operating system and running off a clean install. In all the cases, if I had the 4GB in, the machine would kernel panic. I can't begin to list all the things and combinations I tried in order to isolate the issue, but it seemed the only thing I could determine would guarantee the machine to lock-up was to run it with the 4GB.
    I also ran rember utility for several hours, several times while the 4GB sticks were in (and it found nothing).
    There is a curious pattern however.
    Placing both the 2GB RAM (total for 4GB) modules inside the machine will guarantee a kernel panic. Placing one 2GB module and one 1GB module (total of 3GB) also guarantees a crash. However, using either of the 2GB modules alone, in either of the two slots, is perfectly acceptable. Isn't that strange?
    It's almost as if the machine is allergic to having both slots occupied at once, but that doesn't make any sense because before buying the 2GB modules, it ran with two 1GB modules, one in each slot.
    I'm going to try putting back in the two original 1GB modules just to see if it can still run. If anyone has any suggestions of anything I can try to get this machine working with its 4GB, I will be EXTREMELY grateful!
    Thank you,
    Andrew

    I tried running from 1GB + 1GB, and it ran fine for a few hours, but upon waking from sleep I got the dreaded 3 beeps. This absolutely never happens otherwise, so I know where the problem lies now. The machine is back onto a single 2GB stick and running fine.
    My machine won't run with both slots used. I don't know if that is only a hardware problem, if it could be firmware or even some type of software bug, but that is where the issue is.
    The RAM I ordered is the right one for my machine, according to the crucial website, and also to their ram scanning tool. They are 2GB 200-pin DDR2 SODIMM 667Mhz sticks, and I'm quite sure those are the right ones for my machine. I will contact them and point them to this thread and se what they say though.
    And remember that in this case, it doesn't work with an older module either. 1GB + 2GB crashes. It eventually crashes if I have both slots occupied.

  • My macbook pro 2008 running OS X 10.5.8. But I can't connect my new iPhone!

    My macbook pro 2008 running OS X 10.5.8. However I have recently bought an iPhone5 and I cannot curently connect my iPhone to my mac, as I need iTunes 7 - BUT i can't download iTunes 7 since my software does not support it!
    So I obviously need to connect my iPhone to my laptop, but the software is getting in the way! How can I update my software so that I can run iTunes 7
    Many thanks

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

  • How to replace the hard drive in MacBook Pro 2008

    Is there an instruction manual or bulletin on replacing the hard drive in a MacBook Pro, 2008 late year model?

    ifixit.com.
    RAM, HD, other repair instructions for all macs.  Also ranks each new model for its "self-service ease".  I think the new Retina models are rated 2 out of 10.

  • OpenGL being disabled. (MacBook Pro 2008, Mac OS 10.9)

    I opened a file I had been working on yesterday on a different Mac, and got the error message: "3D functionality is currently disabled due to OpenGL being disabled." I am currently using MacBook Pro (2008), running Mac OS 10.9, using PhotoShop CC. I've already looked at Ps Preferences>Performance and I see this. (see attachment)
    How can this be solved? Thank you.

    This is not a new post, but I can't find how to start a new thread.  I'm hopeful that someone will see it and suggest a remedy for my OpenGL not being fully functional.
    I'm using a Mac Pro, 16GB dual processor machine in OS X (10.7.5) with a Radeon (Mac Edition) 32 mb AGP Vesrion graphics card.  I suspect that I may be experiencing the same problem as  Anna (above).

    When i press the power-on button, i can hear the hard disk spinning but no display, the screen remains black like not getting power.
    No beep sound when tried to boot without RAM installed.
    The battery and the Charger worked fine when tested with another computer.
    The RAM works fine when tested with another Computer too.
    What could be wrong with my computer, i hope it is not the board that is dead.
    How can i overcome this problem?

    Op Charles,
    You can try a SMC reset:

    Follow directions for a battery that applies to your machine.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1365
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1367
    You can check these as well
    It sounds as thogh the the GPU may be dead, you can take it in to an Apple Genius (make an appointment) they will disgnose it for free and give you your options.
    Good Luck

  • MacBook Pro 2008, won't go past the start up page, just keeps telling me to restart

    I have a MacBook Pro 2008, it freezes then has pink pixels, restarts but then says I need to restart it again but it never gets past the start up page, just keeps telling me to restart again. I've tried taking out the battery and plugging it in, I'm not sure what else to do

    Don't know about the pink stuff....
    You may be experiencing a Kernel Panic, as shown in Apple doc. #HT1392. If not disregard
    Bad or incompatible RAM is, more often then not, the cause of most Kernel Panics. It could also just need to be reset.  Here's the most used site for Resolving Kernel Panics. Please do all the steps in order, even if you don't think you need to do a certain step.

  • Improve performance on macbook pro 2008

    I have a macBook pro 2008 15 inch screen (aluminum body)
    I have a BIG FAT Aperture library now (25000 images+) and the current config (4 GIG working memory) is just squeaking by
    I have been told you can expand the working memory to 8 GIG with OS X- the manual however says max 4.
    If you can inform me and have the time, I'd appreciate it
    better a hundred or so for new memory than 2K+ for a new machine
    thanks to all for reading and considering this request
    respects
    Dave Ross

    If Page Ins are more than about 10% of Page Outs after a long day of your normal work, that work would benefit perceptibly from more RAM. The higher the percentage, the greater the benefit. My guess is that with an Aperture Library that large, unless you have nothing but Aperture running, more RAM will probably turn out to be helpful.
    If your MBP is one of the unibody models, it can use 8 GB. if it's an early-2008, non-unibody MBP, it can only use 6 GB.

  • How do i install a free osx or operating system on my macbook pro 2008?

    Hey so the go is i have a macbook pro 2008 i love it too bits but for some reason my screen flickers all the time but ill just have to deal with it. Secondly i cant install any operating systems because i dont have a mac to download osx from or mountain lion. And when i go to download it directly from my macbook pro it says i need to buy it :/ or i dont have the licence i cant remember but i just want it working whoever can help me i would much appreciate!! thankyou for reading this and also ps my screen when im on the net on it in the safari osx menu it intermittly spazzes and all the url bars keep clicking etc i dont know what the problem is but i would appreciate some advice or help! it is a good machiene quiet no damage looked after just got it given to me from a family member but i have had no luck so far

    Jamesandmacbooks,
    if by “free” you mean “gratis” (as opposed to, say, “open source”), then there’s only one version of OS X to date that’s gratis, namely Mavericks. You can only download Mavericks if you currently have Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later installed. If you’re still running Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5.something) on your 2008 MacBook Pro, then you’ll need to first purchase the white retail Snow Leopard DVD, install it on your MacBook Pro, and run Software Update to get it to 10.6.8, after which you can download Mavericks gratis from the Mac App Store and install that. Be sure that your MacBook Pro meets all of Mavericks’ system requirements before trying to install it. If you currently run any PowerPC apps, note that they won’t be supported in any version of OS X after Snow Leopard.

  • I got a macbook pro 2008 and can not back up using time machine. it eject my external hard drive everytime. does someone has a fix???

    i got a macbook pro 2008 and can not back up using time machine. it eject my external hard drive everytime. does anybody has a fix???

    Does your external hard drive have it's own power supply?  It should.
    Is your external hard drive formatted with the NTFS file system?  It won't work.
    It needs to be formatted either with Mac OS Extended or FAT32.
    (There are drivers available to add NTFS support to OS X but their quality is unknown, especially the "free" ones.)

  • I want to remove the monitor from my 17" Macbook Pro 2008 to use as an external for my Macbook Pro 15" 2012. How can I convert lvds to Thunderbolt and power the monitor?

    I want to remove the monitor from my 17" Macbook Pro 2008 to use as an external for my Macbook Pro 15" 2012. How can I convert lvds to Thunderbolt and power the monitor?

    It's almost impossible.  The new iMacs have a Target Display Mode, but it's built to do that.  Without ripping your screen out, finding an acceptable power supply, frame, and whatever electronics to convert a Thunderbolt signal to the screen, the cost will be much larger than buying a cheaper HiDef monitor that runs with an HDMI to Thunderbolt cable to your MacBook 15.  In fact, you can sell your 17" MBP for a lot of money, unless it's broken or something, buying you a really sweet monitor.
    By the way, I found your answer by searching this forum.  I would suggest using the search function here in the futuere.

  • Is it possible to install CS5 or CS5.5 on a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM MacBook Pro running 10.6 (Snow Leopard)?

    Is it possible to install CS5 or CS5.5 on a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM MacBook Pro running 10.6 (Snow Leopard)?

    Hi Carolyn, thanks for your quick reply. First thing I did before posting my question was to check the system requirements for Creative Suite, both on Apple and Adobe's websites. But I am however confused about the difference between "Multicore Intel processor" vs "Core 2 Duo", and keep hearing stories about CS5 not working properly.

  • Installing 8GB ram on MacBook Pro (Mid 2010)

    Hi, I have bought 8GB(2*4GB) ram to install on my macbook pro, when I install both I get a black screen but when installing one or the other with one of the original ram they both work. What can I do to fix this problem??

    When you install RAM, reboot your computer with the "D" key held down (or the Option-D keys). These will load the Apple Hardware Tests.
    With these tests open, check the box for the extended memory test, and then start the test. This will have the system thoroughly test the RAM for errors.
    In your case, it appears you may have a bad set of RAM modules, but you can check them using the method above.
    When you have them paired with your original RAM, how much memory does the system report as being available when you select About This Mac in the Apple menu? If you are using Lion or Mountain Lion, then in this panel click "More Info" and then select the "Memory" section, and see what the system reports as being installed.
    Is this RAM test necessay with every upgrade of memory or just if you have problems after the upgrade
    Thanks
