Has anyone added RAM to their MacBook after the fact?

I need to add some RAM to my 09 model.  Has anyone done so themselves?  If so, what did it cost you?

  • HT6207 Has anyone else's laptop been freezing after the latest update? (Security Update 2014-002)

    I just installed the update this morning and, for the first time in years, my laptop has been constantly freezing to the point where I have to manually restart it.

    Same thing has been happening to me and it's really annoying. I've tried reformatting and restoring my hard drive but it didn't help. Tried to perform a hardware test but that froze as well.
    I suspect it's an incompatibility problem and would appreciate it if Apple would fix it soon. If anyone had the same problem and fixed it somehow i'd appreciate any tips.

  • Has anyone noticed blank 'Latest Backup' info after the 10.5.8 update?

    I notice this in both Time Machine System Preferences and under the top menu TM icon. Now, I have to enter Time Machine to determine the last backup time.
    Just checking in.

    No, not on this machine.
    I did notice that backup after updating to 10.5.8 was quite sizeable though.

  • Anyone having trouble with their icons after the 10.7.4 Lion update?

  • Has anyone tried to connect their xbox?

    Has anyone tired to connect their xbox using the wireless Networking Adapter? Every time I try, it tells me that it is not connected. Anyone have any suggestions?

    I believe there is no issue connecting the Xbox 360 via Wired Ethernet (either an ethernet cable directly from Xbox 360 to TC, or via a wired Ethernet bridge). The problem is, as you said, when trying to connect wirelessly via the Xbox 360 Wireless USB adaptor.
    Did Apple say anything more about the fix? Timescales? I'm itching to get a Time Capsule, but not until this issue is fixed.
    Also, if I set the TC to 802.11n with backwards compatibilty (forget the exact option), will this slow the entire network down if I have a mixture of 802.11n and 802.11g devices connecting to it? I read somewhere that it will only slow the network down whilst the actual devices in question are transmitting. Is this correct?

  • Has anyone had trouble with their bluetooth headset? (even after pairing)

    Has anyone had trouble with their bluetooth headset? I have a Motorola H700 that pairs with the iphone but takes about 10 seconds after i hit send for the connection between the phone and the headset to be established. I also get allot of static when the headset is more than 3 feet away from the phone. (this headset worked perfectly @ about 40' with a Motorola Razr I had)

    Hi jmsemac,
    I understand you are experiencing some issues with Bluetooth connections. I have linked to an article which provides some troubleshooting steps you may want to explore:

  • Has anyone had trouble ejecting their ipod from itunes after syncing?

    Has anyone had trouble ejecting their ipod from itunes after syncing?

  • Has anyone had to abandon their current voice plan when activating iphone?

    Has anyone had to change their current voice plan when activating the iphone? I want to get the iphone, but the restrictions are killing me. I can't apply my 24% business discount, no MMS capabilities, no video and the ATT rep told me that I would have to change my current voice plan. The voice plan is the biggest issue. I can live with the others.
    I current have a family share plan with 850 anytime minutes (unlimited nights and weekends and M2M) for $59.99/month. This plan is way better than anything ATT is currently offering. Has anyone had to deal with this?

    I was told when I bought the phone from the Rep at the AT&T store that I would get a 15% discount off my bill for work.. knowing she sold me an iPhone. Emails have went back and forth since October where she said I had to wait a couple of montsh for it process. After calling AT&T customer service and asking them why that my discount column on the bill shows 0.00 and going to the store I bought it and talking to another rep, they both said it doesn't apply to iPhone accounts. After sending another email to the original rep, she goes back on her word and confirms it's not happening. Thank God its a cool phone, otherwise I'd hang up AT&T over that $15/mo I've been missing out on.

  • Has anyone tried to have their glass screen repaired on the ipod touch

    I've gotten a lot of results searching for repair on the glass screen, even sites that have kits for doing it yourself, has anyone tried to have their screen repaired this way?  I know about the trade in offers, but I've seen repairs as low as $25.

    Some users posted that they did it themselves successfully.
    Some tried themselves and ended up not working at all afterwards.
    Some had a local third-party do it and it did not work satisfactorily afer it was returned.

  • Has anyone had issues with their itunes not coming up?

    Has anyone had issues with their itunes not coming up?  I keep getting error message 13014.  I just bought a new classic ipod and am not sure if this is the problem.

    Hi
    Your new iPod has certain operating system requirements. Does your iMac meet those requirements?

  • HT1689 Has anyone had trouble opening their nook and updating it?

    Has anyone having trouble updating their nook or even going into it to read any of their books?

    If it's getting hot you need to replace it,  As a suggestion I would take it later this morning to your local Verizon Corporate and have them look at it and see if they can DOA it,  since the screen is bad and it is getting hot it's considered a Manufacturing issue and since the phone carries a 1 year warranty Hopefully they can give you another Brand new one I'm not going to Guarantee they will they may order you a Certified Good as new one but hopefully the Rep or Manager of the store will understands it's out of your control the phones screen went dead and the phone gets hot,
    So that is what I'd do get some sleep and Later in the morning or afternoon if you can Visit your local store and see what they can do for ya and Let me know on this thread..  I wish ya good luck..   b33

  • Has anyone had trouble with dropped calls after downloading the IOS 7

    has anyone had trouble with dropped calls after downloading the IOS 7

    I downloaded mountain lion and then iPhoto '11 in order to tap into iCloud capabilities with all of my devices. (My Mac was outdated in regards to operating platform to do this). After installing iPhoto 11, I had to repair and rebuild my library of photos.  However, after doing this, all of my albums were jumbled and, while I can see the image thumbnail, when I click on the thumbnail, and error that looks like a black triangle and gray exclamation pops up as opposed to the larger hi def image I want to view.

  • HT201272 Has anyone had problems with their apps downloading to their ipods?

    Has anyone had problems with their apps downloading to their ipod? Or know why all apps have been removed from their ipod?

    Possibly, but what problems?  Any errors?
    If you are really running iOS 3.1.2 as your signature suggests, that is likely the issue.  Many apps now require iOS 4.3 or higher.

  • I just got the Mac defender virus, has anyone had this problem? What is the best software to get rid of this virus?

    I have a MacBook pro and just got infected with the Mac Defender. WhT is the best software to get ride of this and protect from a future virus? I have looked at intego, norton, and panda.

    Trojan War
    If you discover a trojan program is running on your computer then look to the following information for assistance:
    1. A recent discussion on the Apple Support Communities: MacDefender Trojan.
    2. An excellent site devoted to Mac Malware: Macintosh Virus Guide
    3. Another site for removing MacDefende, et.al.: MAC Defender Rogue Anti-Virus analysis and Removal
    4. A new removal utility - MacDefenderKiller
    Removing strange software can be a task.  The following outlines various ways of uninstalling software:
    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash.  Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.  Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space.  If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application.  In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder.  You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder.  You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder.  Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a Startup item or a Log In item.  Startup items are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder.  Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences.  Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab.  Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the Delete [-] button to delete it from the list.
    Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS.  Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.  Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default.  You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead.  Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder.  Usually with the same name as the program or the developer.  The item generally has a ".pkg" extension.  Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
    There are many utilities that can uninstall applications.  Note that you must have this software installed before you install software you may need to uninstall.  Uninstallers won't work if you install them after the fact.  Here is a selection:
    AppZapper
    Automaton
    Hazel
    CleanApp
    Yank
    SuperPop
    Uninstaller
    Spring Cleaning
    Look for them and others at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on removing software and dealing with spyware and malware.
    After removing all the components of the software you may have to restart the computer to fully disable the software.  This will be the case when removing software that has installed a daemon.  After the daemon has been removed you need to restart the computer to stop the daemon.  Alternatively, you can kill the daemon process using the Terminal application or Activity Monitor.
