HT3918 RE: Mixing 4GB with new 8GB Memory

I have an existing 4GB (2x-2GB). Can I add 8GB (2x-4GB) to remaining 2 slots? Total = 12GB

Yes, you can use that combination in your late 2009 or later iMac. Recommend OWC or Crucial as sources for the memory.

MacBook Pro Stuck at Grey Apple with New 8GB of RAM

So I recently purchased 8 GB of RAM to upgrade my 2010, 13", Intel Core 2 DUO, 2.4GHz with Lion MacBook Pro from the original 4 GB it had. But once the new RAM sticks were installed. The computer proceeds to but to the Grey Apple logo during boot and freezes every-time the wheel begins to spin. From that point I decided to put one of the original 2 GB sticks back into the computer and leave one of the new 4 GB sticks in as well. Guess what, the computer booted fine.
This makes no sense to me as I know this computer can take 8 GB of RAM but yet it will only work when I have one of the original sticks in making my total RAM 6 GB. Any ideas how to fix this issue?
Here is the exact RAM stick I ordered:

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I hope you have return privileges.
Macs are notoriously 'picky' about RAM. Just because modules are advertised as meeting the specs doesn't mean they will work reliably.
I learned the hard way with a RAM upgrade from a manufacturer who did not guarantee Mac compatibility. They did replace them once, yet the RAM still didn't work without frequent Kernel Panics.
RAM from Apple, Crucial, and OtherWorldComputing (www.macsales.com) seems to work well for most people who discuss it here in the forums. With other brands, sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.

Mixed experiences with new MacBook & Questions

I just sold my iBook and bought a MacBook 1.83GHz. In generala nice machine, fast and silent. I was wondering which of the following is normal on a MacBook:
- The mouse button is dreadful. I am now using the click-on-trackpad as a workaround, but things like double or triple click with the mouse button is a pain. I seem to have to hammer the thing to work. Working it with my thumb becomes problematic. Is this normal?
- It gets scaldingly hot on the bottom near the back left corner, in the corner closest to the power connector. This is when running on battery. Slowing down to single-core seems to help a bit. How do I measure temperature anyway?
Thanks,
G

1) The mouse is probably not normal and it should work better than you're describing. You might want to contact AppleCare regarding that one.
2) Yes they do get rather toasty. It's quite a change from your iBook although more than likely what you're experiencing is normal. To check temperatures try using CoreDuoTemp…

Looking to purchase a new 13" MacBook Pro with 512GB SSD memory and 8GB ram. Main purpose is to run Final Cut Prowithout being at my desk. Is there's need to upgrade to the 16GB to make Final Cut Prorun more smoothly?

I was planning on buying a new 13 inch MacBook Pro with 512 GB memory and 8GB RAM. The main purpose for this purchase Is to be able to run Final Cut Pro anywhere I want to. Should I upgrade to 16 GB of RAM with the added expense and wait time or is that overkill?

8GB should be plenty . . . though as with most things in life, it all depends on exactly what you are doing. If you intend to edit long, highly complex projects loaded with effects and multicam clips you can't get enough RAM.
For over 3 years, I and many others, have been using 4GB with no problems.

Apple Unibody 13.3" MacBook Pro (Mid-2010): 4GB vs. 8GB DDR3 1066MHz Memory (RAM).

Apple Unibody 13.3" MacBook Pro (Mid-2010): 4GB vs. 8GB DDR3 1066MHz Memory (RAM).
1. About my Mac.
     Processor: Intel® Core 2 Duo (2.66GHz)
     Memory (RAM): 4.00GB DDR3 1066MHz (2 x 2.00GB)
     Hard Drive: 320GB 5400RPM (Apple Stock HD)
     Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M (256MB)
     Operating System: Mac OS X Lion (10.7.1)
2. My concerns/questions
     For quite some time now, I've been planning to upgrade the memory (RAM) of my MacBook Pro from 4.00GB (Apple Stock) to 8.00GB. In terms of "FASTER BOOT TIMES, IMPROVED RESPONSIVENESS (OPENING and CLOSING PROGRAMS, FILES & ETC.), SMOOTHER GRAPHICS, ABILITY TO OPEN MORE PROGRAMS SIMULTANEOUSLY AND OVERALL IMPROVEMENT IN PERFORMANCE", does it really make a BIG difference?
     If ever I am going to pursue this upgrade, should I let Apple do the upgrade or buy the parts and do it myself?
     If I am going to buy the parts and install it myself, what brand do you recommend? Crucial, Kingston, OWC & etc.?
     Why does Apple charge so much for memory (RAM) upgrades? Is the memory module they are using any special compared to the ones we can find in Amazon (Crucial, Kingston, OWC & etc.)?
Thanks for helping me out with my concerns.

I recommend OWC RAM because it's reasonably priced and OWC's support is great if you ever need it. I recommend installing the RAM yourself because it's dead simple. There is no good reason for anyone ever to pay Apple's prices for RAM.
I don't think you will see faster boot times with more RAM, but that shouldn't be a concern, because there's seldom any need to shut down or restart a MBP. Just put it to sleep when you aren't using it, unless you won't use it again for more than two or three days. Opening and closing programs won't benefit significantly from more RAM either, but when running multiple large programs at once, you will see a significant improvement in their performance. It's well worth the small investment ($65) to upgrade from 4GB to 8GB.

My internal drive is NOT showing up in the event library in Final Cut X. I am also getting a "The operation couldn't be completed. Cannot allocate memory" Any ideas? I am using an IMAC Core i7 with 8GB memory, OS version 10.6.8

My internal boot drive is NOT showing up in the Event Library in Final Cut X. My external raid drive is showing up.
I am also getting error message "The operation couldn’t be completed. Cannot allocate memory" when attempting to create a new "event". Any ideas?
If I had a application disk, I would unistall and reinstall FCPX. I am assuming there is a way do do this without a disk - just have not been able to easliy find out how.
I am using an IMAC Core i7 with 8GB memory, OS version 10.6.8
Thanks

Well it did NOT work. Here is a screen capture as FCPX loads showing the drive while it loads. Then when it is loaded, NO drive showing up in the Event Library ( I have turned off the external drive).
ANY ideas . . . . Anybody . . . . APPLE?

Installed new hard drive, formatted, mavericks won't install, says need 2GB or more memory, I have 8GB memory

I have two 13" Macbook pros, #1 has 2GB memory and #2 has 8GB memory. I installed a new 1TB SSHD hard drive in Mac #2. I downloaded OS X Marericks to Mac #1 and made a bootable USB. I put the USB drive into Mac #2, hold down the option key and start up. My install Mavericks usb comes up and i click on it, it brings up the next window properly and i go to disk utilities and formated the new hard drive properly. I than click on install OS X Marericks, the next window comes up and I click on continue. The next window comes up, and instead of being able to click continue again, there is a message that says OS X Mavericks requires 2GB memory or greater and a button to click that says Quit. This is the Mac that has 8GB memory ???????
I put the bootable OS XMavericks USB in Mac #1 with only 2GB memory and it works fine. Both Macs are mid 2009 and both work fine.
Anyone have a clue to what the problem may be??

Could be Apple is locking the Mavericks install to the system it is downloaded TO. Not sure as I only have one Mac that has Mavericks installed and I have no desire to install it on my Mini.
Why not just download Mavericks to the other Mac?

8GB memory cards for N95 - Nokia says 4GB max

OK... I have a N95 (bought late Nov 07). Bought an 8GB memory card... all seems to work great.
Thing is Nokia list 4GB as the max memory card on their web site here - http://www.forum.nokia.com/devices/N95
I assume 8GB is OK and reliable to use ??
Just checking - as I said, not seen any problems at all just curious as to the mismatch.
cheers

I haven't seen a slowdown with lots of videos and music on a 2GB card in my N73, but I have seen a huge slowdown with a lot of MobiReader eBooks installed (around 100)- it takes four or five minutes sometimes to go from a book back to the library. It doesn't happen with only a few books installed (10 or so).
I haven't had much chance to check with my N95 that I was given for Xmas - it only came with a 1GB card and I only have a few songs plus DivX music videos and movies plus 20 books aboard so far, but so far I haven't seen any slowdown even with MobiReader.
I'm looking for an 8GB card for my N95 once one becomes available here and I can confirm it works reliably in my N95. Then the wife gets the N73 with the 2GB and my laptop gets the 1GB card. Guess I throw away the 256MB card currently in the laptop!

Can I swap out my sim from an activated 4GB phone to a new 8GB?

I recently bought a new 8GB iPhone (the 4GB just wasn't big enough!). I wanted to know if I could just swap in the old SIM chip and use the phone or if I had to go through the activation process again?

I think since the sim that you will be swapping into the 8gb iphone is already activated then itunes will recognize this and you won't have to go through the original activation process.
When my phone was replaced the guy at the apple store just swapped the sims and quickly did something on the computer. I just had to put in my voice mail pin and that was it.

Will the new 8Gb nano work with these speakers?

I bought a set of intempo speakers last year for my first generation 1Gb nano. I bought the new 8Gb nano last week and want to know if it will work with them. The manufacturers website with technical specs is below,
http://www.intempodigital.com/ids01.htm

The new nano comes packaged with it's own 'dock adaptor'. It's a #13 dock adaptor in case you're interested.
I don't have the speakers you mentioned, but I have an iPod hi-fi and I removed the dock for my 30GB 5G iPod and inserted the #13 dock for the new nano and it is a very nice fit- the click wheel sort of disappears in the hollow of the dock a little- but other than that it fits well and the nano doesn't wobble around at all.
The new nano fits fine on my iPod hi-fi- it sits in almost perfectly upright on the connector. It looks like it should tilt back a little when you look at the angle of the connector on the speaker. Maybe try holding the nano very upright- it doesn't need to be forced on. Took me a few turns to get the angle correct.
Good luck.

Is it ok to leave my old photos in Aperature and start with new photos in Lightroom? MacPro with 2 x 2.26 Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon processor, 6 GB memory, 1 TB harddrive.

Is it ok to leave my old photos in Aperature and start with new photos in Lightroom? MacPro with 2 x 2.26 Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon processor, 6 GB memory, 1 TB harddrive?
Or should I transfer them to Lightroom?

That's really a personal preference. Support for Aperture is coming to an
end and you may find yourself unable to get to theses photos in the future
in the case of a HDD crash if you can't get the software to reinstall.
Faced with that prospect, I would probably put it on my list of things to
do when I am feeling really bored and looking for something to amuse myself
with. You can export your Aperture photos in their original format to a
folder on your desktop and then import them into Lightroom. Use the copy
option on the import to save the photos in a new folder within your
Lightroom catalog.
