How much memory can i put in my imac

how much memory can i put in my new imac       

Assuming it's a 27" 2012 machine, it will accomodate up to 32GB. I'd strongly recommend reputable vendors such as OWC (www.macsales.com) or Crucial.
If you bought a 21.5" iMac the RAM is not upgradeable. The 21.5" machines will accomodate up to 16GB from Apple however you have to order the machine with 16GB directly. OWC does provide RAM upgrade kits for the 2012 210.5" iMacs however it is MAJOR surgergy and is full of risks including fatally damaging the machine and invalidating the warranty.

  • How much memory can I put in my MacBook?

    Hey,
    I have a MacBook.
    Processor 2.13 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory 2 GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
    and I am wondering how much memory I can put in the thing.
    By day my wife uses it for work and pictures and stuff and by night I use it for DJing so I need AS MUCH space as possible.
    Thank you for your time!!
    ~JM~

    Up to 6gb although 4gb would be cheaper http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook/White/2.13GHz

  • How much memory can I put in?

    Mine is a 24", Early 2008 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 4 B 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM for memory, how much can it handle?  w/Yosemite 10.10 & 2 2G right now.

    Add a 4GB chip.
    The 2 places I’ve seen recommended most to buy reliable RAM are below. I have purchased RAM several times from Other World Computing and have always been very satisfied with the product and service. They have on-line instructions on how to replace the RAM. OWC has also tested RAM above what Apple states is the maximum. I now have 6GB installed on a machine supposedly limited to 4 GB.

    Hello,
    I am trying to choose notebook between this models:
    HP ProBook 450 (H6P51EA)
    HP ProBook 450 (H0V97EA)
    HP ProBook 4540s (H5J79EA)
    How much memory could I put into a HP ProBook 450 (H6P51EA) ?? (maximum memory)
    It is difficult to find this information (It is difficult for me as I need to traslate from english.)
    I read the  http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/14588_div/14588_div.PDF , but there is no concrete information for H6P51EA.
    Help me to find out with it. Where I can find this information?
    It will be better if I will know max memory for each of the notebooks.
    Thanks.

    I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/ .

  • How much memory can I install in my mac book pro?

    Mac book pro 2.4 GHz late 2011 i7....How much memory can I install? Currently have 4Gb but want to run Win 7 on VMware and want to make sure my user has enough

    The position of Apple is that the Late 2011 can take 8 GB, however, OWC, http://www.macsales.com and Crucial, http://www.crucial.com both guarantee their 16 GB ram packages to work.  Both are sellers of high quality ram that is guaranteed to work in Macs.

  • How much ram can I put  In a 12" 867MHZ?

    Hi,
    I've just picked up a 12" 867mhz Powerbook for a very reasonable price! My question is how much ram can i put in it? It currently has 640mb. Also if i can put some more in it will it run Leopard?

    Bear in mind you can customise the install of Leopard to exclude some languages and particularly exclude printer drivers that aren't relevant to you, this will substantially lower the total required space. 12" Powerbooks are rather fiddly to work on - here's a really thorough guide on Hard drive replacement etc. for your Powerbook:

  • I have an iMac 5,1 with an Intel Core 2 Duo. I'd like to be able to use iCloud, but need Lion which is too big. How much memory can I add? And will this upgrade allow me to install Lion?

    I have an iMac 5,1 with an Intel Core 2 Duo. I'd like to Lion, in order to use iCloud, but the specs indicate I don't have enough memory. How much memory can I add? And will this upgrade allow me to install Lion?

    I believe your model iMac can address 3 GB RAM; the minimum for Lion is 2 GB - however, that is an absolute minimum for very light use. You would be much happier with a minimum of 4 GB.

    (You can install 4 GB, but it will only be able to address about 3.1 - 3.2 GB)

  • How Much Ram can I put in a MBP C2D 2.4 15" (08) (MB133LL/A)

    Can I put 2x4gb modules? 8gb?
    Link?

    The maximum it is designed for is 4 GB, however OWC indicates it will address 6 GB. Look in your manual for the specifications. You don't say how much memory it currently has so I'll assume it has the 2GB it came with. To expand it I would recommend Crucial or OWC's memory however any memory that meets the specifications will work. Here is a link to OWC's site:

  • I have an iMac OS X Version 10.5.8 but I also have a MacBookPro 10.7.5 version, why software updates are not the same? For example, when I want to know how much memory can not store in the same way in either computer.

    I have an iMac OS X Version 10.5.8 but I also have a MacBookPro 10.7.5 version, why software updates are not the same? For example, the way to see how much memory I have in my iMac is diferent than MacBookPro. And where I can see the memory of the disc I've got in my iMac? Than you very much.

    If you want everything the same on both computers you need to be running the same OS X version. You can't because your iMac is a PPC machine, not Intel.
    But to see information about your hard drive is the same for both. Simply select the drive icon on the Desktop. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. Disk information is in the upper panel.

  • How can i find out how much memory i have left on my imac

    i have an iMac and i dont know how to find out how much memory i have left on my computer.
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    smash adams,
    If you're talking about hard disk space, open Finder, click once on your hard disk (left column) and look at the bottom of the Finder window.
    If you're talking about RAM, Finder >Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor.
    Open Activity monitor and click the System Memory tab.

    Hello miss_papaya
    That model supports 2 4GB modules for a total of 8GB, only problem is that 4GB modules are currently at a premium price. Have a look at the spec's in the following article or in the User's Guide that came with your iMac.
    http://www.apple.com/imac/specs.html
    Also have a look at Crucial and OWC memory below:

  • How much memory can I stuff in my Mac Mini?

    I have a mid-2011 i5 2.3 Mac Mini that came with 4GB memory (2X2GB).  After a while, I upgraded it to 2X4GB chips, and today, I installed 2X8GB chips for a total of 16GB internal memory.  How much can I stuff in there?  Can I put in 2X16GB chips?
    Also, to speed things up, can I install one of those Fusion drives into the Mac Mini?

    There has only been fanciful reference to 16 GB SODIMMs.  Middle of last year, 8 GB SODIMMs were $750+ each.  Now they are $45 through Crucial.  16 GB SODIMMs may be out there somewhere, but likely cost $3000 each -- just my "off the cuff" estimate as I have done no research.

  • How much memory can Premiere Pro use on a new Mac Pro?

    I'm ready to upgrade memory on my Mac Pro Late 2013 6-core.  Does PP CC 2014 have a limit on how much RAM it can use?  Some apps never use more than a certain amount, so I don't want to buy a lot of memory if PP will never put it to work.  (I made that mistake when I was an FCP user.)  Is there a limit and if so, what?
    Also, are there any Mac Pro users who have an opinion on optimum RAM?  I currently have 16GB (4x4GB) with 10GB reserved for PP.  I am in the middle of a very large project and have noticed some irregularities and spinning balls.  I assume that they are from memory shortage since quitting all other apps and restarting PP seems to fix the issue.

    Not a Mac expert here ... but I do know there's folks running 64G ram and so going up from 16 will work fine. Now ... as to which is the "choke-point" ... that's a bit more techie than I can answer off the bat.
    The Adobe video apps can put a pretty good strain on all of the computer's hardware, and "balancing" the assets of the hardware to the usage patterns of the software is always the trick. Memory never hurts ... but if the spinning ball is a video-ram problem, changing mobo ram isn't going to do much. The various areas they go into great detail on within the pages of the "Tweakers Page" (found within these forums threads, check the hardware forum) are of course, mobo, chip/s & cores, ram, disc in-outs & arrays/layout of project/footage & program files, video card & ram.
    Your problem might be best solved by more RAM; it might be that it's a disc read/write issue and either more internal or eSATA II discs to spread read/write processes over would be best ... or taking an array of discs and using a fast multi-disk RAID array to speed things up even faster, or a video card upgrade.
    So ... where you might want to go is the the Hardware Forum and give your computers complete specs, including disc layout and usage, and see what folks there think needs tweaking.
