  • Airport Extreme 802.11n upgrade options for early Intel Core Duo iMac

    I have an iMac from mid 2006. I recently purchased a Timecapsule - partly for the wireless back ups, and partly to upgrade my wireless network to 802.11n. There is a software upgrade from Apple that upgrades older 802.11 a/b/g Airport cards in the iMac to 'n' standard. Here is the link:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/D4141ZM/A?fnode=MTY1NDA0Mg&mco=MjIzMDkzNA
    The page states that the upgrade is compatible "If you have a Mac with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor (except the 17-inch, 1.83GHz iMac)". What it doesn't tell you is that if you have an early version of the iMac (pre-Sept 2006) that shipped with the Intel Core Duo Processor (note - not the Core 2 Duo) then the upgrade will not work. I have also tried to install Airport Extreme updates (2007002 and 2008004) and these report that the hardware is not compatible. Doing some searching around these forums and others, the issue with the original Core Duo iMacs not being upgradeable to 802.11n is out there - shame Apple weren't more explicit.
    I have seen that there are various USB based 802.11n adapters available. Whilst searching on this topic, I also came across a site offering various Mac upgrades, including an upgrade to the Airport card to upgrade wireless capability from 802.11g to 802.11n. It looks like a straight replacement for the internal card - link here:
    http://www.macupgrades.co.uk/store/productinfo.php?productsid=461
    The company offering this is in the UK, but the product appears to be from a Sonnet, a US company. Does anyone out there have experience of installing this product (or having it installed) and can you comment on how it performs? Is it a seamless replacement for the original Airport card?

    What it doesn't tell you is that if you have an early version of the iMac (pre-Sept 2006) that shipped with the Intel Core Duo Processor (note - not the Core 2 Duo) then the upgrade will not work.
    If it says you need to have a Core "2" Duo processor, then it seems to me they are telling you very clearly that it will not work with the earlier Core (no "2") Duo iMacs.
    The "late 2006" iMacs with Core 2 Duo (except for that one education model they mentioned) have wireless networking hardware that is 802.11n capable. When they were initially sold, Apple chose to NOT enable the "n" capability for some reason; maybe because the standard was still in flux and not enough testing had been done with the driver. Later, they enabled the "n" capability with a firmware update. But that was only possible because the wireless hardware was already capable of doing "n."
    Earlier iMacs do not have this hardware so there is no way to enable it with a firmware or software update. 802.11g is plenty fast enough for Internet access (you won't notice a difference with "n"). If you are using Time Machine over wireless, it may take a while longer to do that initial backup (you could connected it by Ethernet cable when it is doing that initial backup), but subsequent backups are incremental, so the "g" versus "n" speed difference will not be as critical. Since your iMac is Core Duo (32-bit) and the future of Mac OS X is 64-bit, especially after Snow Leopard's release, it may be best to save your money and keep your iMac intact (not opened).

  • Does 2GB ram stick exist for iMac Intel Core Duo?

    looking to max out my iMac on Ram (at least 2GB) as i Find it real slow with the 512MB it comes standard with.
    1) Is my only option to buy 2 x 1GB or is there a 2GB stick on the market?
    2) If going for the 2 x 1GB am I going to see a significant difference beyond just having the standard 512MB paired to a new 1GB?
    Thanks

    I bought 2 1GB sticks of Ram, installed them... ran my iMac 20 Intel core duo, then went to 1.5 GB of RAM. Honestly, I don't see the advantage of going to 2 GB. Personally save yourself the $$$ and wait about a year or 2 then upgrade. I am returning 1 stick which I paid 109 for. BTW Fry's electronics has Corsair 1 GB PC5300 sticks for 109.00 with a 20.00 rebate. Cosair if definitely a name you can trust.
    Personally 1.5 GB is te magic number.
    To comment on GLO's comment about pairs: There is no reason to match your memory. These iMac's do not run in dual channel mode. I contacted AppleCare and was told that there is no advantage running paired sticks of memory on the new machines.

  • TA24901 update from mac os x 10.4.11 for macbook intel core duo

    I have a Macbook that is using Mac OS x 10.4.11 and wish to update the OS. Can someone tell me how to do this and the best way?

    Any Intel core 2 Duo MBP can run Snow Leopard.  Order the disk from the Apple store ($19.99) and install it.  After installation check for software updates.  These are the Snow Leopard requirements;

    If you want to install Mt. Lion, then your MBP must meet these requirements:

  • Finding a dial-up FAX modem for iMac Intel Core Duo

    I know that Apple has its own modem with USB dongle, but I've also heard that this modem may have some peculiar problems.
    How can I find (conveniently) other V.90 or V.92 FAX modems which are supported on the iMac and in OS 10.4.7 Tiger?
    Anyone have any comments -- positive or negative -- about any modems -- Apple, US Robotics, Global Village, other?
    Thanks
    Jerry
    P.S. I primarily want the modem to be able to send and receive FAXes with the iMac.

    Hello,
    I have always preferred US Robotics modems. But, you are going to find your options a bit limited these days.
    The problem is that most manufacturers are no-longer producing drivers for the newer Mac OS versions. So, you would need to locate a modem who's driver is already integrated / built-into OS X.
    Fortunately, the drivers are provided for a large number of modems out there. But, you won't necessarily get any support from their manufacturer since the drivers in OS X are provided by Apple.
    That said, I would personally go with either a US Robotics modem (since that would be a very established standard and the drivers are supplied by Apple in OS X).
    But, if you are not comfortable purchasing a modem that does not come with Apple drivers in the box for OS X 10.4.7, then you really should just buy the modem from Apple so that you know it is supported by the current version of OS X.
    I hope this helps.
    Let us know if you have other questions.

  • How about Onyx and Macjanitor for the Intel Core Duo chip?

    Do these programs apply?
    SP

    Your first post is correct Will about MacJanitor.
    I wouldn't trust it, although it should just refuse to work, why take a chance when other utilities exist and offer many more features...
    Anyway the Terminal commands MacJanitor runs are still the same:
    sudo periodic daily
    sudo periodic weekly
    and
    sudo periodic monthly
    or the three tasks together:
    sudo periodic daily weekly monthly
    as in Jaguar, Panther and "PPC Tiger".

  • Which VGA adaptor for my Intel Core 2 Duo iMac?

    Hi folks... new to this forum. I'm looking to hook up my 20" iMac to a 2nd monitor (it’s a 20” Samsung VGA).
    I’m very confused... So far, I've bought 2 different adaptors (neither of which fit the iMac):
    Apple Mini DVI to VGA Adapter (which is listed as ”suitable for iMac Intel Core Duo”)
    http://store.apple.com/ie/product/M9320G/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MjE0NTg3Ng
    Apple Mini VGA to VGA adaptor (which is listed as "suitable for iMac flat screen")
    http://store.apple.com/ie/product/M8639G/A?fnode=MTY1NDA5OQ&mco=MjE0NTg4Mg
    Can anybody enlighten me which adaptor I need?... my iMac is a 20” iMac Core 2 Duo & I bought it new in April 2008.
    Thanks!

    Perhaps is was packaged or repackaged incorrectly, because that is the correct adapter part # for the Intel iMac's including the Early 2008 model.

  • Linux Arc for Intel Core Duo

    Hey All,
    Obvious from the title, pls tell me which Linux arc type should go
    for an Intel Core Duo PC.
    Thank You,

    It is my assumption too that intel core duo is a 64 bit processor, and your configuration supports 64 bit.
    In order to install a 64 bit operating system, the chipset on your mainboard should be able to support 64 bit. It is possible to have a 64 bit processor in a configuration which only supports 32 bit.
    It is no problem to install 32 bit linux on a 64 bit machine configuration. It is not possible to install 64 bit linux on a machine configuration which only supports 32 bit.

  • Can an intel core duo 2Ghz iMac handle a 12Mbps internet connection?

    Is a 12 Mbps internet connection speed too fast for an Intel core duo 2 GHz Imac?

    Ethernet on those models are 10/100 802.11b/g. That means the Ethernet is capable of up to 100 Mbps, roughly nine times that your the ISP's speed. The limiting factor will be your cable/DSL modem that must be able to handle 12 Mbps or faster.

  • Need to Install Safari 6.0.2 on a white Intel core duo iMac. Had to throw out 6.0.3 because of conflict with required software. Downloaded wrong version that was for Mountain lion (I am running 10.7.5). It installs but won't open.

    Of course I can't throw it away since I get a message it's part of the sytem. I can show package contents and throw those away, but evidently not a good idea!!

  • How can I create a start up disk for a old intel core duo running 10.5.8.. Computer works fine, but can't find install disk.

    How can I create a start up disk for a old intel core duo running 10.5.8.. Computer works fine, but can't find install disk. Want to use internal disk drive or USD flash drive.

    Try calling 1-800-676-2775.  Give the serial number and thy *may* still burn you new install disks designed just for the hrdware in your system (for a fee, something like $160 per disk).  *May* is only because they may not burn disks for Leopard anymore.
    If they do not burn them for you, you can buy Leopard disks off Amazon or eBay for about $200.
    Have you considered Snow Leopard?.  Those disks only cost $19 (single user) or $29 (5-user license) through Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE.

  • Which O/S upgrade is recommended for a MAC Book Pro17 with Intel Core Duo 2.16 GHz

    Which O/S upgrade is recommended for a MAC Book Pro17 with Intel Core Duo 2.16 GHz
    I am using os x 10.4.11.
    Do I need to upgrade to 10.5.xx? Will this platform suport 10.6.xx? If 10.6 will work do I need to install 10.5 first?
    Thanks...

    Hi. Your computer can be upgraded to either Leopard 10.5 or Snow Leopard 10.6. 10.6 will be much easier to find and will be less expensive. Leopard is not required prior to upgrading to Snow Leopard.
