How do I install this new Intel CPU?

I currently have an Intel Core 2 Duo processor and I bought an Intel Core 2 Quad processor. Can I install this on my iMac, and if so, does anybody know of a good site that will show me how?

FreeFun101,
Welcome to the forum. Unfortunately no you cannot upgrade the processor in your iMac. The only item that is intended to be user upgradable is the memory, some people are brave enough to change their internal hard drive but even that isn't for the faint of heart.
Regards,
Roger

  • I bought Photoshop CS6 Extended(education edition) for Mac. Now ik want to install it on my (new) macbook. I have the product code and serial number. I receive an error code: may be a false copy. How can I install this program?

    In 2012, I bought Photoshop CS6 Extended (education edition) for Mac. Now I want to install it on my new Macbook. I have the correct serial number and product code, but I receive an error message: the software may be a false copy etc....What to do?

    Here is a copy of the error
    This means : Installation failed.
    Verification of the Adobe Software failed
    The product you want to install is no valid Adobe product and seems to be falsified.

    If your serial number is listed as being valid at http://www.adobe.com/ then I would recommend obtaining a fresh copy of the installation files.  You can find details on how to locate your serial number at Find your serial number quickly - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.
    To download a fresh copy of the installation files please see Download CS6 products.

  • After I downloaded the new version of iTunes 11.0.1 and i try to open it it says: ''There is no application set to open the document ''iTunes 11.0.1.dmg.part''. How can i install this without paying for an app to do it?

    After I downloaded the new version of iTunes 11.0.1 and i try to open it it says: ''There is no application set to open the document ''iTunes 11.0.1.dmg.part''. How can i install this without paying for an app to do it? What apps can i download to do this type of work.

    .dmg.part is not a complete file..  It usually indicates that the entire file has not been downloaded yet.  Are you sure you downloaded the entire file?   (i recommend updating itunes through  > Software Update
    Alternatively, you can download it from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1614

  • I can not install new update in Photoshop CC, does any one know, how I can install the new update?

    I can not install new update in Photoshop CC, does any one know, how I can install the new update?
    Photoshop CC show me, if I look on "Help" -> Update, there is no update. But my actual license is very old....
    I tried it, to do it manual. But there is also some problem.

    totally agree.  at this point i could care less if "apple" supports it.  i'm not renting my ipod touch, it's mine.  i paid for it.  and i'm not asking to do anything illegal with it, all i want is to get rid of this POS ios6 and get back to being able to use my ipod touch the way it was before...working.

    How do I install a new font?

    Hi Vero1974, Thank you for replying. I appreciate you taking the time to help me with this problem.  Unfortunately clicking on the font did not work fo rme. I fort of found the answer on Apple's website in support. I had to go into applications and select the Font Book. The website's instructions did not work after that. I had to figure it out on my own. You are very kind for helping me. Have a wonderful weekend!

  • How can i install the new Yosemite 10.10.3 Beta

    Hello guys , I heard that some people installed the pre releaseed Yosemit 10.10.3 update and I wonder how can can I download and install it ? P.s I have recently updated my OS X to 10.10.2 which ruined my wifi and currently my wifi doesn't work so I'm thinkin that installing this new update might solve my problem.

    Before releasing a public beta to Beta Program participants, Apple seeds the "developer's only version" to those registered as Mac Developers.
    So, we'll have to wait a little longer before we start using 10.10.3.
    Cheers.

  • HP dc5800 SFF: Microcode Install with New Q9400 CPU

    I have a HP dc5800 SFF with a core 2 duo dual core cpu. Checking the supported CPU list I installed a supported Q9400 cpu. Booted the machine and got a microcode error. Researched and found that I needed to download the Microcode file which I did from this site, the file is called  "sp51245.exe".
    How do I install this file? The computer won't boot, just gives microcode error. Do I put the old CPU back in then run the Microcode File then install the Q9400?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Anytime.
    Glad to have been of assistance.
    Now you are knowledgable in updating the microcodes and flashing the BIOS's on any dc5xxx, dc7xxx, 6xxx Pro, or 8xxx Elite business desktop.

    how do i install a new printer with no dvd?

    Hook it up and see if it works. If it is one of the more common printer brands/models, it could very well have it's drivers installed, depending on how your OS was installed. If not, you can always go to the support site for your printer and download the drivers, if necessary.
    What kind of printer do you have? What OS and how was it installed?

  • I have purchased indesign suite 6. how do i install this program? Please

    i have purchased indesign suite 6. how do i install this program now? Please

    InDesign is single product of Adobe's various products, not a suite. But anyway, I presume you purchased it as a download? If so, you'll have a .dmg file. This is a disk image. Double click the file and a pseudo drive will appear on the desktop. There should be an app clearly named as the installer, though it may be one folder deep.
