How much RAM does the iPad2 have?

I looked at the tech specs and other documentation I could find, however I don't see anything that states the amount of RAM the iPad2 will have. There didn't seem to be any mention of that in the Apple presentation either. Does anyone know where I could find this information?

RAM is not irrelevant.
If you had used an iPad at all you could not have failed to notice how Safari frequently needs to re-load web-pages when switching between them, as they are unloaded when the iPad runs short of RAM.
This is particularly annoying when using forums for instance, as you start writing a reply, switch to another page to copy some info, switch back and the forum page has to reload losing what you had already typed.
Also, on long image heavy web-pages, you must've noticed the big blank areas where the iPad has had to unload previously viewed parts of a web-page when scrolling.
Also, when using the multi-tasking feature of iOS, when the iPad runs short of RAM apps are dumped from memory meaning they are not as quick to re-load when you switch back to them.
More RAM would help alleviate all of these issues.
The relatively small amount of RAM and frequent web page reloading would be my only complaint about the first iPad.

  • How much ram does the iPhone 6 Plus have?

    How much ram does the iPhone 6 Plus have?

    This is what I got on the info....
    IPhone’s RAM has been very little, even pitiful compared to other flagships. Now 1GB RAM is still the standard configuration for the current iPhone 5 / 5s and iPhone 6.
    Is Apple’s system optimization can really never need to increase the memory capacity? Obviously the answer is no. Recently, GSMArena published a sheet of iPhone 6 Plus detailed specifications, we can clearly see the “2GB RAM” in the memory list.
    GSMArena also posted the benchmark score for iPhone 6 yesterday, but we seen that A8 GPU not seem to improve a lot in the processing capability compared to A7 – only increased 4.65%.
    Apple usually not declare the detailed hardware parameters of their products, because those indicators not have too many advantages compared to other similar products, and even looks a bit shabby. But for Apple, these are not the most important, the company always focusing on the overall performance and user experience of the product. iPhone 6 Plus is the largest ever. Apple has said the iPhone 6 Plus screen reached 1080P in the event, as a larger screen means more resource consumption, and the processor needs to handle higher pixel image, so increasing RAM is the best choice to enhance stability and performance.
    So based on the above evidence and our speculate, iPhone 6 is indeed possible with 2GB RAM. If in doubt, all we could wait is finding out the truth after dismantling the device. Course this just may be a beginning, we also expect Apple can give more memory for the upcoming next-generation iPad and iPad Mini.

  • How much RAM does verizon internet have dedicated?

    Using GT704WG hard wired to Gateway 3 Ghz 2048 MB DDR2. I-MAC wireless in another room. Verizon is ISP. I have 1300 MB free RAM after I log on. Less as I surf. (win xp sp 3).
    I wouldn't normally think of Ram as an issue when they only used, to put 512 mb in these things and they ran alot faster.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    How much RAM you are utilizing has nothing to do with your ISP. It has to do with your computer and the software you have running. If your browser is using too much memory, then you need to troubleshoot your browser.

  • How much RAM does the iPad OS take up

    If I buy an iPad, how much RAM is used by the OS, or how much RAM do I have to use?

    Are you actually asking about RAM, or do you actually mean "storage capacity"?
    Do you actually want to know how much free space a 16GB or 32GB iPad has "out-of-the-box"?

  • How much RAM does the MacBook Pro have?

    I need at least 4GB RAM preferably 8GB RAM.... it is for school and i have many games and scrapbook tools for my electives.... please help.

    Are you planning on buying a MacBook Pro or do you already have one? Apple sells MBPs (non-Retina) with either 4GB or 8GB of RAM. The problem with buying RAM from Apple is that it's so expensive. If you ordered a 4GB machine, for instance, you could upgrade it yourself to 8GB or 16GB without voiding the warranty.
    So if you're buying - go with a 'base' 4GB model and buy the RAM and install it yourself.

  • How much ram does the iPod touch 4g have

    I am a bit confused.  I bought an iPod 4th gen late May 2013 (made about a year ago) and read that it won't be able to be updated to ios 7 because of the ram.  Since when are Apple products only supported for 1 year?!  It's bad enough that I got ripped off buying an iPod touch 2G advertised as a 3G 3 years ago (for which I got several updates).  Now I buy an iPod 4G this May only to find out a few months later that there will be no updates for it!  I am pretty sure what I have now is a 4th gen, but according to Apple's website, there isn't a 16GB 4th gen!  I can't find ram info about this particular model, only for the larger, earlier produced 4g.  My model number is ME179LL/A.  The only info I can find about this model is that it is only about 1 yr old (which is why I 'm a bit po'd about not getting an update).  My ipad is older and can still be updated, so I don't understand why my newer ipod can't!  And don't tell me to buy the newer ipod-I just bought this one and cannot afford to purchase another one (not even a refurbished 5th gen, which is still more expensive than the 4g new)!

    It doesn't matter when it was designed, it was built 2012 and should be updated just like any other Apple product.  My ipad is much older and still getting updates!  If you buy a car made in 2012 that was designed in 2010, you still get service for a year.  Your response is not valid.  An Apple product manufactured less than a year ago should still be entitled to updates.  I won't be surprised if there are many people in my position that think this is more than unfair, but disgraceful.  I see more lawsuits in Apple's future if they do not provide an update for a recently manufactured product.  Maybe you can afford to just go out and purchase a new ipod every year.  I cannot and it should be illegal to sell a product that a company does not intend to support.  When I purchased my ipod, Apple was still selling them on their website.  To sell a product you know won't be supported in a few months is unethical!

  • How much ATI does a macbook have?

    My child wants to get Team Fortress 2 but i heard it didn't work on his friends computer. How much ATI does a macbook have?

    Acually I'm sort of right since AMD dropped the ATI name in Aug. 2010. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radeon And Apple didn't use them in MacBook Pros until 2011 http://support.apple.com/specs/#macbookpro
    Current MacBooks use the NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics processor with 256MB of DDR3 SDRAM shared with main memory. They've used the Nvida since early 2009 http://support.apple.com/specs/#macbook

    Well, any mobile computing device you buy is technically obsolete within a year or less of being released - for any company's products that's true.  And with all of these all-solid state devices, you cannot update the RAM or the storage, so they basically remain useable and supported as long as they do - there really is nothing you can do to avoid that sort of situation.  Smart phones and tablets are evovling at an almost frenetic pace, so nothing in that arena is going to be compatible with the operating systems and apps of newer future devices for very long.
    You can maintain your own device's usability for longer by making sure to keep backups of apps & versions of apps that you know do run on your device so you will not be left behind if an App store update drops support for your device and removes the older app version.
    And as far as iOS devices, I don't agree that Apple only installs the minimum RAM.  The amount of RAM is going to be based on a number of factors - the capability of the mobile cpu being used, the footprint of iOS and the built in functions, the typical RAM usage of known iOS 3rd party apps, the size of battery(s) available to fit in the space available, the added cost of additional RAM and any number of additional parameters.  In a device like a tablet or smart phone, every single component that goes into them involves some trade off or compromise.

  • How much ram does my macbook pro have?

    How can I tell how much ram memory my mac book pro originally came with? I now only have 2 gbs left and am running out of space with all my photos, aps, videos and music. I don't want to keep moving things on and off the computer with an external hard drive. Is there a way to get more ram? My ipad has 64gbs and holds everything - but apparently my computer doesn't.

    Time Machine backup disks should be external ... separate from the computer.
    Several places sell external disks that are already formatted for Mac.  Others tell you that external disks not formatted for Mac can be reforatted, but save yourself the grief for now and buy Mac-ready.
    Buy a *new* disk, in my opinion.  Do not reuse an old disk.
    Some can suggest certain brand names as "better", but even the best disk-brand will have bad apples in the mix.
    If any others have a convenient link for Time Machine Tutorial, please provide.  I have learned enough alreay, generally through trial and error on my own.
    But focus on getting that first backup done within the next 2 days.
    As to "probably need a new HD", perhaps you can move enough off to an external disk.  Cross that bridge after you get the backup.
    If you get the sense that critical things are done first and that you should save yourself complex things like "how to replace a harddisk" for later, you are reading my posts correctly.

  • How much Power does the FIS2R drains?

    Hi,
    thanks for your answer. But my question ist how many the Mobo consumes. Without the periphery!
    Why do I want to know this?
    My Machine:
    - MSI 865PE NEO2 FIS2R (Bios 1.8)
    - Zalman ZM400A-APF Power Supply (400W)
    - 1 GB Dual Channel RAM ( 2 x Corsair TWINX512-3200CL2PRO in Slot 1/3) running at 2-3-3-6
    - 2 x Samsung SP1604N as Raid 0 on IDE3
    - 1 x Teac 516E DVD Rom
    - 1 x LG GSA 4040b Multi DVD Writer
    - 1 x Terratec Aureon Fun 5.1 (PCI Slot 3)
    - 1 x ASUS Radeon 9800XT (AGP Slot)
    Cause I got almost all information about my periphery I want to know what the Mobo with it's onboard components consumes. The Zalman 400W is one of the best PSU out there as THG said in a test. But are 400W enough to be stable under heavy stress? Most 450-500W PSU aren't delivering what they offer.
    So what is the consumption of the Mobo itself with all onboard components turned on (Firewire, USB Ports....)
    It should be possible to calculate a whole systemconsuption based on all information I have, or not?
