Do I have to have equal amount of RAM in both slots?

I read somewhere that the new DDR2 RAM works differently and that you have to have equal amount of RAM in both the slots to see the power of it. Is this true?

I think GeNomeZ has it right.
The DDR2 SD RAM in the October 2005 revision PBs runs at the same 333 MHz speed as does the DDR SD RAM in the prior revision PBs.
I don't know what you mean by seeing the "REAL power" of the new RAM, but I've never heard that you need equal amounts in both slots with either DDR or DDR2 RAM to have it run at peak performance. Do you remember where you read differently?

  • Why each time I try to save my day's work,version WITH mark-ups and version w/o, does it say "you have placed a large amount of text on clipboard do you want to access this? What is clipboard and how can I just save my work in its proper file?

    I don't get this clipboard thing! I have created two files, one for the MS with mark-ups, and one for the unmarred version, each living in their own spot in my "house." It seems to be merging the two versions and I have to go in and re-paste and then it always says "you have placed a large amount of text on clipboard do you want to be able to access this?" and it prompts me to say no but I am afraid I'll lose my day's work so I just tap cancel. I highlight the day's revision and select "copy" to paste into the unmarked doc. before I save on the marked up or working doc. It is when I try to close that one that the clipboard issue pops up. What can you tell be about saving doc. in two places and how to NOT get it on clipboard? Thanks! I am not super computer savvy so layperson's language much appreciated!

    Are you using Microsoft word?  Microsoft thinks the users are idiots. They put up a lot of pointless messages that annoy & worry users.  I have seen this message from Microsoft word.  It's annoying.
    As BDaqua points out...
    When you copy information via edit > copy,  command + c, edit > cut, or command +x, you place the information on the clipboard. When you paste information, edit > paste or command + v, you copy information from the clipboard to your data file.
    If you edit > cut or command + x and you do not paste the information and you quite Word, you could be loosing information.  Microsoft is very worried about this. When you quite Word, Microsoft checks if there is information on the clipboard & if so, Microsoft puts out this message.
    You should be saving your work more than once a day. I'd save every 5 minutes.  command + s does a save.

    My facetime Is locked by a telecommunications company, and I have paid the full amount of mobile how i I can download it from the store or repaired by you

    That makes absolutely no sense at all.
    If you're trying to say that you do not have Facetime on your phone, it is banned by law in several countries in the Middle East (UAE and KSA) and has been permanently removed from devices sold in those countries. In addition, it may be removed from phones sold in other countries in the Middle East if they are unlocked or used outside of the country where they originated.

  • HT4859 I have iCloud for my iPhone, my daughters iphone and 2 of my ipads and have purchased the max amount of storage I can but still get a message saying i don't have enough space to store anymore. Do I need to put each device on their own account?

    And maybe you don't talk to too many people but I've been on many forums on different websites where people have had similar problems and a lot of people in the store were having battery problems where they were draining too fast. What I learned is that all the people who did not download the updates are good. There phone is working the same. The people who have, they're having battery problems
    I have downloaded every update and my battery life is better than any previous iPhone I have ever owned. I see posts from hundreds of people every day, and this is not a commonly reported problem. While there are a few random reports of battery problems, it is no more than I have seen for any other model or any other version of iOS in almost 8 years. Usually problems of rapid battery drain can be traced to bad apps (FaceBook is the worst offender) or corrupt data being synced from iCloud or other sources (gmail, Windows Live, Yahoo, etc).
    The simple test is to restore the phone as New. Do not create any email accounts. Do not install any apps. Do not enable FaceTime or iMessage. Do not enable Twitter or any other social networking app. Use it for a day and check the battery usage. You will find that it is working well.
    And also see this: http://www.overthought.org/blog/2014/the-ultimate-guide-to-solving-ios-battery-d rain. It is the best treatise I have seen on the subject of battery usage.

  • I bought a iPhone 4 from USA in $749. As I did not take a data plan, still the phone is locked, now when apple is selling unlocked phone and I have paid the dull amount, will they unlock my phone

    I bought a iPhone 4 from USA in $749. i did not take a data plan, still the phone is locked, now when apple is selling unlocked phone and I have paid the full  amount, will they unlock my phone

    AT&T has not as of yet announced any plans to unlock an iPhone that was purchased as locked to them. Whether or not they will do so in the future, only AT&T would know, and they probably will not say unless and until they're ready to make an official announcement.  There is nothing Apple can do for you in this matter unless you are still within the timeframe for returning the iPhone.
    Regards.

  • I'm in a bind... Over the years I have purchased a good amounts of apps. Some has hacked my apple I'd changed my security questions and was charging me money every month. When I went to cancel the purchases through my bank my account was disabled. Help me

    I'm in a bind... Over the years I have purchased a good amounts of apps. Some has hacked my apple I'd changed my security questions and was charging me money every month. When I went to cancel the purchases through my bank my account was disabled. Help me

    No I did not change the email that I used to create the account.... Someone made new security questions and when I went to change them I had to verify and it sent the answers to an email address... Get this though... The email address that it sent the answers too waste letters in the middle were starred out like this t*****@aol.com. That's not my email. Why did it not send the questions to my apple ID email account right? if you know how to change the email to a new one that would be awesome if you could share that info with me.

  • I have a datetime axis stuck on 1970  for both min and max..

    I have a datetime axis stuck on 1970 for both min and max..
    The lineseries dataprovider has an array collection with objects
    with each object having a dateAdded2 attribute of format mm/dd/yyyy
    and the dates are in this year 2008. the objects also have an
    attribute called amount which is a number.
    eg
    object.dateAdded2 = "07/14/2008"
    object.amount =5
    Anyone with any idea what is going wrong? Similar type of
    data works fine in my other charts.

  • I have 2012 iMac with 4 GB RAM. Every time I'm importing vedeo using MiniDV HDV Sony camera, FCP X is importing normally, with 2.5 GB of RAM free. Then, after 10 or 15 min of importing, FCP is frozen, and free RAM is close to zero. What happens?

    I have 2012 iMac with 4 GB RAM. When I turn FCP X, I usually have 2.5 RAM free and the program works normally when I edit. The issue is importing video. I use a Sony HDV camera to import from miniDV tapes, and Apple says Sony HDVs are supported. Yet every time I'm importing, it works normally for 10-15 min, then the amount of free RAM quickly (yet gradually) is reduced to almost zero (I used Memory Clean to dicover it) and then FCP X got frozen and I need to force quit it and start all over again, to work for another 15 min. Horrible! What is it?

    Are using 10.0.7 (the latest version)?
    Memory problems seem to have been alleviated with 10.0.6 and 10.0.7.
    Please post the screenshots of Activity Monitor, as Tom asked. This will at least let us see if it is FCP X itself gobbling a lot of RAM or if you are suffering from the problem of OS X not releasing "Inactive Memory" in a timely manner - an issue that has been there for a long time :-(
    You didn't mention whether you have the 27" or 21.5" iMac. Unfortunately, in the 21.5" adding RAM is a big hassle. But if you have the 27", then seriously consider upping the RAM. It is quite inexpensive, from the likes of Crucial or other reputable third parties.

  • I have to have my external hard drive on to listen to songs , how do I transfer the songs?

    All the songs appear in my library, but I have to have the external hardrive on to listen, I have a WD external.

    That option was removed in version 10.4.
    Use the "Organize Library" option in iTunes to move all media to the folder listed in Edit > Preferences > Library.
    Then that folder can be moved to where you want it ultimately.

  • I have recently purchased an iTunes gift card to make purchases in my favorite game but for some reason I can't make in app purchases. Someone said that I have to have a credit card but I don't want one of those. Can someone help?

    I bought an iTunes gift card to purchase certain things in my favorite app. Well when I try to buy things inside the game it does not give me the option to approve the purchase and it never shows up. I have reset the app, I have deleted the app and downloaded again, I have turned my ipod off and on, I have made sure all updates are up to date and nothing has changed. I saw a similar question like mine and the answer was that you have to have a credit card linked to your iTunes account to make in app purchases and I was thinking they were right until I talked to a few friends who cancelled their credit cards and took them off of the account and can still make in app purchases so that can't be the issues. Can someone please help me this is driving me crazy I have talked to iTunes support but they weren't much support.

  • I am trying to setup airport express. do i have to have it connected to an ethernet cable? i want to connect it wirelessly

    i am trying to setup an airport express wirelessly. can this be done or do i have to have an ethernet cable pluged into it?

    You can set up the Express using AirPort Utility and wireless only, but you must first log on to the default network that the Expess provides.....Apple Network xxxxxx....and then open AirPort Utility.
    No password is required.
    For most users, the Ethernet cable method is simpler....if you have a spare Ethernet cable handy.

    You need to reconfigure your phone for use with your Apple ID. I suggest you restore yours as new then reconfigure it with your information and Apple ID. Be sure to disable Find My Phone, if it's enabled, before proceeding.

  • Why do i have to have my cellular data turned on to recieve or send TEXT messages?

    my girlfriend and i have noticed this most recently.
    To send or recieve TEXT messages (not MMS) on our iPhone 5's we have to have our *cellular data* turned on. OMG why? It's supposed to not use cellular data for texting (or callling) so why do we have to have it switched on for TEXT messages (SMS)? Does that mean that texting is now going to eat our data plans?  If so, we'd of been better off with our old cell phones.

    no- i think you've hit the nail on the head. (perhaps inadvertantly)
    because my g/f and i couldnt get each other's txts, over 3/4 of the time, if the cellular data wasnt turned on.
    green bubble = sms.
    blue bubble=imessage (data or wifi)
    all this was with (blue bubble) imessage stuff  (with the thought that it'd use wifi, but the wifi at work *****, so ofcourse it'll use data.
    Hmmn. I'm going to shut off iMessage and see if that takes care of the issue.
