Can I use 1366MHz RAM in a computer that requires 1066MHz?

I have 4GB of 1366MHz RAM that used to be in my 2011 MacBook Pro. I'm wondering if I can give it to a friend to use in her 2009 MacBook Pro (which only has 2GB and desperately needs more)? Will there be reliability issues? I don't want to install it for her only to have it fail in some way.
Thanks.

Macs are picky about memory. It may work, but would likely result in a thread of "Mac randomly shuts down" later. More likely it will just beep three times and not boot.
Use crucial.com or macsales.com to be lead to the correct RAM for your system.

If you are using the same iTunes library (meaning the exact same iTunes folder), it should work fine.

Can i use home sharing between my computer and my ipad?

can I use home sharing between my computer and my new ipad (3rd generation) if so, how.
Thanks

You can use it to share the library on your computer to the iPad, not the other way around.
On the computer, set up homesharing in the advanced menu. On the iPad go to settings > music.

You can use any computer but your data will be lost if you have no backup.

How can I use iTunes on my new computer, without lossing all my music?

How can I use iTunes on my new computer, without losing all my music?
I don't want to rebuy everything I have purchased over the years.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

They should be in your itunes media folder. Use an external hard drive and just copy that to your new computer. I'm sure there's an easier way like this one (iTunes>File>Library>Export Library>External Hard Drive) but I never tried it before. Anyways, once that's done, just simply authorize your itunes account to play music you bought on to the new computer.

How can I use my ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections. The apple store clerk told me that I can't use airport express unless I also have a computer with me in the hotel.

How can I use my Ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections? The Apple store clerk told me that travel express won't work in my hotel unless I also have a computer.

The issue with the Airport Express (or any of the Apple routers) is that you need the Airport Utility to configure it. Airport Utility works on OSX and Windows, but not on the iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch.) It will work, if you can preconfigure the Airport correctly ahead of time, but you'd be stuck if you did need to reconfigure while at the hotel.
You can use most any other router that is configured with a web page, which means you have a chance of configuring with Safari on the iPad. If you want something somewhat portable, I use a "travel router" made by D-Link. The current model is the DAP-1350. Other companies make similar travel routers, but I have no experience with the others.

Can i use 4gb ram card instead of (2x2) 2gb cards in macbook pro 15" 2.0 ghz

can i use 4gb ram card instead of (2x2) 2gb cards in macbook pro 15" 2.0 ghz

Hi John,
If your MBP is a 2011, yes, and here is one example: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/1333DDR3S4GB/
If your MBP is from 2006, the other year Apple made a 2GHz, the answer is no, as the max RAM is 2GB.
Given that it appears you already have 2x2GB installed, I'm "guessing" you have the 2011 model, so the answer is yes.

Can I update my brothers iPhone and iPad to ios5 from my computer or can he only update from his own computer that he currently uses to sync

Can I update my brothers iPhone and iPad to ios5 from my computer or can he only update from his own computer that he currently uses to sync?
Thanks joanlvh

You can update it on your computer, but then when he syncs it to his own it will say this iphone is already synced with another itunes account bla bla and will ask you if you want to sync it with this account. It will wipe anything you put on it using your own itunes account. BUT it wont wipe off the new iOS5

iTunes match will only work from a computer in terms of uploading new content. You should be able to copy iTunes purchases back via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). For content from other sources there are some third-party programs listed half-way down this page which might help you get your content back from your phone : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

Can i use 533 ram ??

can i use 533 ram with my board : msi 865pe pls ??????????

Most suitable PSUs for any system will be like Antec TruePower 480w, Enermax Noisetakers 470w, Enermax 465watts, PowerPC 550watts, OCZ 550watts etc.
Like I said, 533MHz RAMs are meant for o/c'ing so there'll be no official statement that it'll be 100% supported as the highest stable for a FSB 800MHz CPU is DDR 400MHz RAMs which are reconisged by Intel and anything higher than that is considered for o/c'ing purposes.
If you die die wants to buy the DDR 533s, I recommend Kingston or Geil Golden Dragon series. You may want to check out what other users are using for their RAMs vs Mobos.

I dont know if you can use it but as far as I know Toshiba recommend using these modules on the Tecra A4:
PC2700 256MB (PA3311U-2M25)
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-2M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-2M1G)
These are single channel 166MHz DDR333/PC2700, DDR SDRAM, 200-pin SoDIMM modules.

Can I use 4GB RAM on my MSI K8N Diamond with Windows 7?

Can I use 4GB RAM on my MSI K8N Diamond with Windows 7? I have put 4GB DDR 1 in my motherboard but windows 7 says (2.75GB usable)...
Regards, Jay

It depends highly on how much hardware (add-in cards) you have installed. If you have two VGA-cards, then it's likely that usable memory stays below 3GB. If you take some hardware out, you will see the usable memory increase a bit, but you won't reach the full 4GB. It will go as far as about 3.25 or so.

The RAM is actually 1066 2/3. Some manufacturers round it up to 1067 some round it down to 1066

How Can you reinstall Photoshop Elements12 to a computer that its was there but loss it after installing windows 8.1

How Can you reinstall Photoshop Elements12 to a computer that its was there but loss it after installing windows 8.1

Reinstalling Mavericks depends on several factors:
if you erased your recovery partition
what OS originally came on your Mac.
I'll assume you don't have a backup available that you made before your mishap, because you didn't mention it.
That's really the take home message here: have a backup!
If you still have your recovery partition:
boot into the recovery partition (command R at restart)
use the recovery partition to reinstall Mavericks. see: OS X: About OS X Recovery
if you do not still have your recovery partition, then it depends on whether your Mac originally came with installer disks or not.
If it originally came with installer disks, you would boot from the installer disks, erase your HD, and then reinstall the OS that is on the installer disks, and then upgrade as necessary until you get to Mavericks.
If your mac did not originally come with installer disks, but you managed to erase your recovery partition, then you can try to boot into internet recovery (option-command-R at restart), and use internet recovery to erase your HD and reinstall the OS that originally came with your computer, and then upgrade to Mavericks if you need to. See: Hands on with Mountain Lion's OS X Recovery and Internet Recovery | Macworld
(the reference refers to ML but it applies just as well to Mavericks).
