How to Upgrade HP 15-p121ne Ram

It's possible to upgrade HP 15-p121ne ram to 12 gb or 16 gb
This question was solved.

Here is the Service Manual:

See pages 3 and 104. The Manual says 12 gigs is the max supported, but also says Intel models only have a single memory slot, non-customer accessible. Whatever memory slot configuration you have it requires removal of the motherboard to access it (them). Notice there is a single 16 gig module part referenced on page 104 but it says it is only for AMD models.
From all this my response to your question is a tentative "No". I am gathering that a single 8 gig module, which you have, is the maximum RAM configuration. Most people have no real need for more than 8 gigs of RAM. What are you trying to do that you believe you need 12 or 16 gigs?

This is the source of information about your laptop: the Service Manual: Download Manual here Unfortunately if you look on page 19 you see that Celeron models have their own type of motherboard which means you could only install a different Celeron processor. You could theoretically buy one of the i3/i5 motherboards and install it but that would mean a new motherboard and processor. The cost will approach a new laptop price. How much memory do you have? Your model was a WalMart Black Friday special a few years back and came with 2 gigs. Increase it to 8 or at least 4. 4 would be cheap as all you would have to do is add a 2 gig module. Here is the part number for a 4 gig module: 4 GB 621569-001 Here is the 2 gig on amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/Upgrade-100-6100ix-PC3-10600-1333MHz-PARTS-QUICK/dp/B00FDV69CE/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1437999207&sr=8-6&keywords=621565-001 Then save that money you want to spend on the motherboard and processor and just buy a solid state drive. You can get a 250 gig solid state drive for under $100 now. Install it and do a clean reinstall of Windows onto it and you will think you have installed an i5 processor and 8 gigs of RAM. Makes everything pop open, boots way, way faster, etc. The solid state drive is the same physical configuration as a hard drive and is a drop-in replacement. http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-2-5-Inch-Internal-MZ-75E250B-AM/dp/B00OAJ412U/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1437999378&sr=1-1&keywords=Samsung+850+Evo Pages 45 and 46 of the Manual show memory upgrade and hard drive removal and reinstallation.

How do I select the correct ram for upgrade to iMac 8,1?

How do I select the correct ram for upgrade on my iMac 8,1? When I look up information online, I believe that I have SO-DIMM ram. Do I need to purchase SO DiMM? I want to upgrade to Maverick and I think I was told that I need DDR2 or SDRAM. My model # is A1224, if that helps.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
OS X Mavericks requires 2 GB of RAM at least, but I recommend at least 4 GB of RAM.
You have got an Early 2008 iMac. You can buy more RAM at OWC or Crucial. Your Mac supports 6 GB of RAM

How to upgrade RAM in iMac 2013 models

how to upgrade RAM in iMac 2013 models. I know one can ask for RMm upgrade while buying iMAC from online store. Is it advisable to upgrade the RAM by self or from some professional?

Even if you do get the 27", RAM installation is a PTA to install. Prior to setting up your computer on your desk, you must lay it it face down on a soft area (couch). Then you have to maneuver your hand & fingers either around or under the pedal to pop open the RAM door. When putting the RAM into the slots you need to use all of your God given muscles to get them in there. Otherwise, while you are seating one RAM, the one next to it will pop right on out.
When you hear the "snap," the RAM is seated properly and it's neighbor(s) will not pop out.

HT4561 how to upgrade operating system from 10.5.8 to mountain lion

How do upgrade my I MAC from MAC OS X ro Mountain lion?

To upgrade from OS X 10.5.8, you must first buy Snow Leopard by calling the phone number in the Apple Online Store: 800-MY-APPLE (in the US)
Make sure your system meets Snow Leopard's requirements:
Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" System Requirements
To install Snow Leopard for the first time, you must have a Mac with:
An Intel processor
An internal or external DVD drive, or DVD or CD Sharing
At least 1 GB of RAM (additional RAM is recommended)
A built-in display or a display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
At least 5 GB of disk space available, or 7 GB of disk space if you install the developer tools
After you install Snow Leopard you can decide if you want to upgrade OS X to the latest version, Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion is available in the Mac App Store, which is available to you after upgrading to Snow Leopard.
Make sure your system meets the requirements for Mountain Lion:
Mac OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion" System Requirements
To install Mountain Lion, you need one of these Macs:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (RAM)
8 GB or more of available hard disk space
If your system does not support Mountain Lion's requirements, you may be able to upgrade to Lion. To do that you must call Apple again to order a download code. Redeem the download code in the App Store to download Lion. Lion costs 99¢ more than Snow Leopard.
Make sure your system meets the requirements for Lion:
Mac OS X 10.7 "Lion" System Requirements
Mac with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon CPU
Core Duo CPUs are not sufficient for Lion
2GB of memory (RAM)
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
To determine which Mac you have, what kind of CPU it uses, and how much memory is installed:  > About this Mac
The specified 2 GB minimum is barely adequate for either Lion or ML. They will run in 2 GB but you may not like its performance. 4 GB is a more realistic minimum.

how to upgrade my mackbookpro from 10.5.8 to date

The first step in Upgrading... is to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs > http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...
Next... MAVERICKS...
Check here to see if your Mac is compatible...
http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/
If so... would recommend at least 4GB of RAM... if not 8 GB
It is important to get the Correct and Matching RAM
See Here > OWC RAM > http://www.macsales.com
The above site also has videos on how to Install RAM should you need it...
Also... Check here for compatibility of 3rd party Software you may be using...
Also note that Rosetta is no longer supported in Mavericks, Mountain Lion and Lion.

How to upgrade from os x 10.6.8 to Lion os 10.7.2

How to upgrade from os x 10.6.8 to Lion os 10.7.2?

Open the Mac App Store and try downloading Yosemite. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Xeon or Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and 2GB of RAM, and if it does, click here and order a download code for Lion 10.7.
Back up your data and check your applications for compatibility before upgrading. In particular, Mac OS X 10.7 and newer don't support PowerPC programs such as versions of Microsoft Office prior to 2008.
Unless you previously got an installer for Mac OS X 10.7 through 10.7.2, you can only upgrade to a newer version.

How to upgrade MB Pro Lion to Yosemite

Looking for some "how to" advice on upgrading software from(Late Year 2011) 15" Mac Book Pro Lion 10.7.5 to newer Yosemite OS X. I'd also like to remove all old non-working Power PC Apps and any other junk, bugs or viruses it might have. Looking forward to anyones opinions or recommendations on these upgrades. Thanks H.

First check and see if your machine is in the recall pool:
Apple Recall:"
https://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro-videoissues/
It will help us to know how much RAM is installed. I would say you'd need at least 8 GB to be effective.
I personally have avoided Yosemite, read a lot of posts here and on the Yosemite site. I'm still running Mavericks and Lion.
You might also consider upgrading your HD to an SSD:
https://www.macsales.com/
Is the vendor of choice for me.
If you're set on Yosemite the site is here:
https://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/
Make a working clone of your current OS before you do anything.
You might do a clean install of Lion and migrate just the applications you want.
"any other junk, bugs or viruses it might have."
If you don't feel it's running up to spec check out the serial number on the recall site.

How to upgrade MacPro OS 10.6.8 to 10.8?

As long as your machine meets the system requirements:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
You should be able to go to the App Store (since you're running 10.6.8), buy Mountain Lion, and download/install it.
FWIW: You probably have more than 2 GB RAM - 4 GB should be considered a more realistic minimum.

I am operating on MAC OS 10.5.8 how do upgrade?

i am operating on MAC OS 10.5.8 how do upgrade?

As Ralph says, call Apple.
But they are really tryin to make it easy to get to Lion or ML ... single user SL disks are now $19 (you would only need that license active until you upgrade to Lion or ML), or 5-user licenses for SL are reduced in price to $29 (in case you need to stay running at SL and want to upgrade more than one computer sometimes in the future).
Check your system (AppleMenu > About This Mac). SL requires an Intel processor and 1 GB RAM. Lion needs Core2Duo or better and 2 GB, ML is a hungry cat and may be more than you want to run, but here are the requirements:

How to upgrade ipad 1 to ios7.

How to upgrade iPad 1 to iOS 7 software

This is a very old argument/issue.
The original iPad hasn't been able to use a newer iOS version since iOS 6 came out almost 2 years, ago.
The original iPad simply does not have necessary hardware and RAM capacity to handle any of the newer iOS versions.
The original iPad is grossly underpowered to run any newer iOS versions and newer apps.
This is price early iPad adopters' had to pay (myself included).
Newer iPads after the original iPad have better/powerful CPUs and more RAM capacity.
The original iPad only had 256 MBs of RAM.
The iPad 2 has 512 MBs of RAM.
The newer iPads now have, at least 1 GB of bulit-in RAM and even more powerful CPUs, now.
If you want to take advantage of the latest iOS and upcoming iOS 8, you need to upgrade to either a newer/refurbed iPad or brand new, up to date iPad models.
It's that simple.
