I've a hand down black MacBook OSX10.5.8 , how can I upgrade to snow leopard, it's 2GHz intel core duo, 1GB 667 MHZ DDR2 SDRAM

According to visit to genius bar, they told me its not support, I gotta buy a new Mac! I don't actually need it, but would like to have iCloud option, bc my iCal doesn't syn with any of my iPhone 4 or iPad 2.

The model 1,1 Core Duo can only run in 32 bit. Lion only runs in 64 bit which needs a Core 2 Duo model 2,1 or better which can run in 32 or 64 bit.
Here's the specs on your MacBook http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/stats/macbook_2.0_white.html

Since my macbook pro is an intel core duo but not a core 2 duo, I cannot upgrade to Yosemite. So... what OS X can I upgrade to with this computer?

Since my macbook pro is an intel core duo but not a core 2 duo, I cannot upgrade to Yosemite. So... what OS X can I upgrade to with this computer? Thanks for the input.

Intel Core Duo is a 32-bit processor, so the latest Mac OS X version you can install is Mac OS X Snow Leopard -> http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
You are running Mac OS X 10.6.8, so you are already running the most recent Mac OS X version for your computer.

Upgrading of Ram for Macbook Pro 15" 2.16GHz core duo

hi,
anyone here could enlighten me whether i could upgrade my current MBP's Ram from 2 GB to 3 or 4GB? (20pin DDR2)
will there be any issue to my system if i also upgrade my internal Hardisk which is currently a SATA 100GB 7200rpm to maybe a SATA 300GB?

We would have to know which MacBook Pro you have. The most current versions support up to 4GB. The previous Core 2 Duos support up to 3GB. The original Core Duos support up to 2GB.
So far as upgrading your drive. The drive is not considered user replaceable. If you damage something while upgrading your drive, it will not be covered under your warranty (provided your warranty is still in effect). Also... if something fails down the road that requires you send it back to Apple... and they realize you have installed a new drive, there is a chance they may not cover it under warranty either... as there would be no way to tell that the upgrade you had done did not cause a problem that just took some time to show up.

802.11n Enabler Doesn't work with 17" MacBook Pro (2.16) Intel Core Duo

While I would believe that the computer does meet the requirements and that it does have the extreme card and after following the instructions -- checking the network utility ap, etc. It is very strange that you get a "Alert: Your computer does not meet the hardware requirements for this update." So you don't think that I am a fool, I did check the Network Utility and there is no "n" so it was never updated.
Is there any way to do this manually?
Thanks in advance.

The Core Duo machines don't have the newer Extreme card whose chipset supports 802.11n.
You can do some potentially warranty-voiding surgery, however, to replace the MBP's stock card with the Mac Pro Airport Extreme Upgrade card, which supports 802.11n and is plug-compatible with the MBP's stock card. It's available for $49 from places like PowerMax and Small Dog.

and if yes what should i buy????
can anybody help me please
thx.

You're welcome, j. If not enough free space availabe is the issue, now is a good time to upgrade to a much larger HD, as prices have never been better. Clear, illustrated directions are available at ifixit.com, macsales.com, powerbookmedic.com, youtube and others. Macsales, amazon and newegg have a nice selection of HDs, while the latter two also have lots of user reviews.
Given that your MBP is 4-5 years old, and the average life-span of a HD is 3-5 years . . . .
Given that you have a 17" MBP, you can install any capacity HD currently available, just make sure it's 2.5", SATA, and 12.5mm high or less (there's at least one Seagate monster out there that's 14-15mm high). All other things being equal, a 5400RPM HD is going to use less battery power, run cooler, quieter, and with less vibration, and, of course, run a bit slower than a 7200. An SSD is also a possibility (a very expensive one), but you're not going to see anywhere near the speed bump as newer machines due to the SATA 1 (1.5Gbps) SATA/HD bus bottelneck.

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive may be failing.
Launch the usual set of applications you use when you notice the problem.
Step 1
Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the page that opens.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for % User, % System, and % Idle at the bottom of the window.
Select the System Memory tab. What values are shown in the bottom part of the window for Page outs and Swap used?
Next, select the Disk Activity tab. What approximate values are shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec?
Step 2
You must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way as above. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left.
Post the 50 or so most recent messages in the log — the text, please, not a screenshot.

Stock RAM Configuration for 15" MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

Hello,
I have a new 15" MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo on it's way to me and I need to order a RAM upgrade. I know the specifications of what I need, but am getting conflicting information from the retailer on how the stock models are configured for RAM. The total amount is 2GHz. Does anyone know if this amount is provided by one or two RAM modules?

You'll find the RAM is in a 2 x 1GB configuration. Unfortunately they both need to come out for you to upgrade to 4GB RAM in a 2 x 2GB configuration. Still cheaper than going with Apple which makes it a little softer.

MacBook Pro 17" with Intel Core 2 Duo startup freeze with 10.6.8?

With my MacBook Pro 17" with Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.33 GHz startup freeze with 10.6.8 - I had problems after several SW upgrades. Startup ends every time in a freeze or a crash, nothing is running, i am not able to type in the password. it starts in beginning with thin colored disrupting lines on the display and this get more and more and than freeze the system.
"Save Boot", startup with shift shows no problems, display is ok, no freeze. So something must new in the video-driver. Is there any driver what I can delete or any new software to help in this issue?

try to boot off the cd installazzione, when the screen appears to follow thePACKING screen viewing. If you've already looked in the manual are your problem?

Purchase RAM for Macbook Pro 2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Mid-2009

Hello,
I need to upgrade the current memory(2 GB) of my Macbook pro (2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Mid-2009) model..Can someone please suggest where I could purchase and what is the maximum and optimal that I could buy.
Also I reside in India, so should I get it online or from the apple store which is like 100 km (nearest) from my place .
Thanks
Shubham

You can buy them oniine if you wish to do so. Buying it from Apple is a good idea but would cost more, and since it's 100km away, after your gas = more money.
The maximum you can install is 8GB. Your RAM specs are 1333MHz - DDR3 - 204PIN SODIMM.
Check here for current prices online and compare to the price Apple sells them in your area.
If you're not in a big rush - then buying online is a good idea.
Good luck

Apple MacBook Pro 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (17-inch): Maximum momory?

Hi,
There are confusing posts on the maximum memory I can put on Apple MacBook Pro 2.33GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (17-inch). Is it 3GB or 8GB?
Thanks in advance,
YD

Apple says 3GB's, but you can run a max of 4GB's, although only about 3.3GB's will be able to addressed by your system. However, you'll get better performance by running matched pairs, so upgrade to 4GB's.

MacBook Pro 8,1 – Intel Core i5 – 2.23 GHz (early 2011) New with OSX 10.6 – current on all updates.
I successfully installed rEFit. I used Boot Camp to install Win 7. All was great.
Then installed debian 6. Somehow after the debian install and restart (I know this sounds crazy) but I am now reduced to Win 7 only. rEFit is not present when rebooting nor is OSX or debian. Further, I am unable to force the install DVD to launch when rebooting, by holding C, D or F8. The Option key brings me to the grey screen with a padlock. I have attempted the root and local pw- no go. Restart holding D takes me to the windows boot manager. I have attempted several options within the Advanced Options; including – Repair Your computer, safe mode and “last known good config,” All of which did nothing.
I can see all my OSX files within win7. I tried to install the OSX within windows. Ya right, that did nothing..
I only desire to get back to OSX...
What are my options??

Yes, you royally hosed up your machine.
You should first try to get your files off, any way you can to a external drive.
Your going to need to hold c and boot from the disk that came with your computer and a couple of screens in under the menu is a option for Disk Utility.
Select your drive and Erase with Security Option Zero, format the drive HFS+ Journaled and when that's finished (about a hour or so) then quit and install OS X from the installer.
I hope this works, but I suspect it won't. Others have hosed their machines trying to use a Linux disk without proper partition formatting too.
Another option might be to use another Mac to c boot off the Snow Leopard disk and install OS X onto a external drive, take that to the problem Mac and try holding option and booting off of it to erase your internal drive.
You could replace the drive.

Is this holding option while booting?
There was someone else around here who hosed their Mac with a Linux disk too. Try to find it.
