Can I use RAM from MBP 15 late 2011 to MBP 13 mid 2012

Hi All,
I presently have an MBP 15 late 2011 (running at 4GB RAM) - which I feel is very slow. Had been reading a lot of discussion threads and most viable solution seems to be to upgrade my RAM - found it in Crucial.com (8gb x 2 kit).
I have another MBP 13 mid 2012 (running at 2GB RAM). I was wondering if I can transfer my 4GB RAM from my MBP 15 to my MBP 13.
Will there be any compatibility issues? Will this work?
Can anyone advise please?
Thanks.

Macs can be very Fussy about RAM...
You can use these Links to check which RAM is suitable for your Mac...

  • Can I use RAM from my PC laptop in a Mac?

    I am getting rid of one of my PC laptops that currently has 16gb of RAM in it.  DDR3, 1600.  Is it possible to
    have that RAM installed in my late 2012 iMac?  I have heard that some Macs use compatible RAM.
    If not in the iMac, could it be installed in our 2012 Macbook 13"?

    Unless the specifications of the RAM are identical to what the Mac asks for the answer is NO! Purchase RAM only from Crucial (directly from their on-line store) or OWC at www.macsales.com.

  • Can I use charger from MBP on a white MacBook?

    My charger from myt white MacBook (2007) died, and since I also have a MacBook Pro (2008) I wonder if I can use charger from it. Will it works? Is it bad for the charger or MacBook's battery?
    Thanks for help.

    Just install the application/suite and use the serial number you have to activate it.  Your serial number should be available thru your Adobe account online if you registered the software.

    Before you do that you should contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations so that your stolen machine will no longer be able to use the applications and you can have two available for you to use.

  • Can I use RAM from "old" MIni in an Intel Mini?

    Subject line pretty much says it all. I have two 1GB card from two "old" Minis that I'd like to install into each of the two slots of an Intel Mini that has 512 MB.
    Are they compatible?
    Thanks,

    Thanks, GeeKay; sorry it wasn't better news. If you ever need a good reference for which RAM works with which Macs, this is a good place:

  • Can i use my macbook pro 13" (late 2011) to play Games?

    I know that this is perhaps silly question but i just curious. Most games playable using graphic card such as Nvidia or ATI,but mine don't have any such graphic cards but it has built-in Intel Graphics 3000 and in the Apple website, the macbook pro that shown able to play games is 15" and 17". Is it adequate to play big games such as Splinter cell conviction or assasin's creed on my 13" MBP?

    Your experience playing the game will be sub-optimal. If you're going to be doing any sort of "real gaming" and want to play more modern games on newer engines, the shared GPU just isn't going to cut it. Sorry, but that's the way it is.
    No MacBook Pro is a first rate gaming machine, per se, just not designed for such. If you're a serious gamer & want to use a MacBook Pro, the only realistic choices are the 15" or 17" which have dedicated GPU's.

  • How can I use music from two different iTunes accounts?

    how can I use music from two different iTunes accounts?

    If you mean iTunes Store accounts, there's really nothing for you to do. Just add the tracks to the iTunes library and play them. Music purchased prior to late-2009 will been to be authorized, though. Pull down Store > Authorize... and type the credentials of the Apple ID used to buy the tracks.
    If you mean something else, please describe in more detail.

  • Can we use Result from another query in Webi using Bex uery universe?

    Hi,
    Can we use Result from another query filter option in Webi to create a report using a Bex Query universe?
    I need to create a report using two universes, one is Bex Query Universe and the other is Orcle universe. I have two queries, one is using Oracle universe; the other using Bex Query universe. I need to pass the Oracle data from the Oracle query to the Bex Query query to get the matched data from SAP Bex query.
    I used Result from another query in the query filter panel for the query using Bex query universe. But I got an error saying that 'A filter contains a wrong value. you cannot run this query. (Error: WIS 00007). The data used in the filter on both sides are the same. they are char.
    I have tested by using two queries from the same Bex query universe to see if the Result from another query filter option works. And I got the same error.
    Has anyone run into the same issue and if this is possible and what should be the solution?
    Thanks in advance!

    In that situation:
    Create two queries : Oracle and BW query.
    @ Report:
    As you have to see result set from both the Dataproviders, correct? To achieve thise one must have common dimension objects to merge them at report and use Objects those are coming from both queries to use them in single Table/Report.
    Unless you don't use Merge Dimensions, you don't get a chane to use both queries objects in single Table/Report. (It will give tooltip saying: You can't drop here -- Incompatable Objects)
    In case, if you don't have common dimensions, change object definitions to Detail objects, for those required.
    Hope it helps you.
    Thank You!!

  • Can I swap ram from a Powermac G4 400 PCI into a Powermac G4 Quicksilver?

    Hi,
    I have a Powermac G4 400mhz PCI, but I'm looking at getting a Powermac G4 Quicksilver 933. I wondered if I can swap some ram from my Powermac G4 PCI into a Quicksilver.
    I have gone to the Crucial website and it says the Powermac G4 PCI and the Powermac G4 Quicksilver both take SDRAM, PC133.
    But in my Haynes Mac manual it says the Powermac G4 requires SDRAM, PC100.
    Who is correct? I would rather swap of course to save money.
    Thanks.

    Hi, thanks for the replys.
    I have gone into about this Mac, more info and this is the info I get about the memory:
    DIMM3/J22:
    Size: 256 MB
    Type: Unknown
    Speed: Unknown
    Status: OK
    I have recently upgraded to 10.4.8.
    I'm sure under 10.4.5 a lot of the info for my ram was not 'unknown'.
    Are there any utilities out there that will give me more ram info?
    On the Crucial website they have one but it is for PC's only. I'm sure one of the 256 ram sticks are PC133 SDRAM as I bought a ram stick from Crucial about a year ago.
    Thanks again.

    Did you mean: can you parse an XML document within Forms 6i? With the new Java importer support, you should be able to use the Oracle XML parser for Java to do this.

  • Can i use xerox from pc

    Hey jayanta_das,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you have an HP Deskjet 1050, from your description it sounds like you would like to scan or copy to the computer and then print so you can make modifications to the original rather than performing a copy directly from the printer. Is this correct? If I have misunderstood, please re-explain the task you are trying to perform and how I can help.
    I look forward to hearing from you.
    Thanks,

  • Can i use applications from an external hard drive?

    Can i use applications from an external hard drive?

    Photoshop itself needs to reside inside of it's Applications folder so that it has access to it's Libraries and plugins. So if you are going to attempt to store and run it from an external drive you need to copy the whole Application folder or install it directly to the external drive. Even still I am not 100% positive it will work as I know it still needs to access your Library/Application Support for additional files and licensing.
    Why do you want to run Photoshop from an external drive?
