    You would remove the battery then unscrew the cover and reveal the Memory Slots there are 2 which will have 2 1GB sticks in there if you wanna upgrade to 4GB you will need to remove the 1GB sticks and replace with 2 2GB sticks...

  • Does the new MacBook Pro come with a disk drive

    Hi
    Does the 13" retina display MacBook pros come fitted with a disc drive ??
    Thanks

    No, it does not. However, when you are customizing the MacBook Pro with Retina display on the Apple Online Store, it gives you the option to purchase an external disc drive, AKA the Apple Super Drive. If you are purchasing from an Apple Retail Store, they sell these there, too, so just ask.
    I hope I answered your question.

  • Why doesn't my Macbook pro come with iPhoto or iMovie? I've already tried

    Why doesn't my Macbook pro come with iPhoto or iMovie? I have everything updated to the fullest capacity. Still..nothing..Help me!

    If you erase the MacBook Pro and made a clean install, see this document:  OS X: About OS X Recovery  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
    Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X
    If your computer came with OS X Lion or later and you erase your hard disk and install OS X, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.
    After installation, start (up) from OS X.
    Choose App Store from the Apple menu.
    Enter your Apple ID and password when prompted.
    Click Purchases.
    If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
    You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to complete installation of your applications.

    What problems specifically? If you have a problem you should start your own thread and explain the problem in detail.
    External USB devices including hard drives and DVD work fine on the new Macbook Pros.

    Many thanks Sir, do you know you get the £65 back to school cedit on the apple store? like is it on a card or something?

  • HT201210 I upgraded from iPhone 3G to 4S a few days ago. I choose the option to restore from my last 3G backup. It worked fine but I just realized that I do not have the new apps which come with the 4S. What should I do? Thanks for any help. Léo

    I upgraded from iPhone 3G to 4S a few days ago. When setting up the new 4S, I choose to restore my last 3G backup. It started by updating the OS to version 5.1 (9B179) then restored my apps and setting. Everything went well except that I realized I do not have the new apps which come with the 4S, like FaceTime, HD video and Siri.
    What should I do to correct this?
    Thank you in advance for any help on this.

    Ah, FaceTime is not an app, either. It's accessed by tapping the FaceTime button when you are in the contacts app and have selected a contact. This can also be done from the Phone app under the Contacts tab, or during a call, you can switch to FaceTime.
    Let me know what other apps/features you are missing.

  • Can I install IWorks 9 on my new MacBook Pro along with the free version now included ?

    I have IWorks 09 for my Mac desktop. I'm purchasing a MacBook Pro shortly and would like to have the same version of IWorks on both PCs. Can I install IWorks 09 on the MacBook which comes with the new version of IWorks pre-installed ? Or, can I delete the free version and install the 09 version ? I'm relatively new to Macs so this is probably a beginner question.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    New Macs don't come with iWork preinstalled. You have to download it from the Mac App Store.
    What you can do is to use Migration Assistant to transfer the files you want, and include Applications, so your iWork apps will be transferred. You will be asked to transfer files from another PC or Mac during the setup of the MacBook Pro.
    Then, open the Mac App Store, go to Purchases and download the new iWork applications versions free of charge. By doing this, you will have the old and the new version

  • Why did my brand new macbook pro come with Snow Leopard instead of Lion?

    I JUST bought a brand new Macbook Pro assuming that it would come with Lion, but it didn't. My brother who just bought an Air the day before me got Lion with his computer. Shouldn't new computers come with new software? I'm confused. Can anyone help me?

    You qualify for a free upgrade if purchased on or after June 6th.  Follow these instructions to download your free upgrade.

  • Does anyone know when the new macbook pro comes out ?

    im wondering if there will be a new macbook pro version sometimes this year  or when was the last uptade or the last macbook pro came out.. thanx

    If I'm not mistaken, retail versions of Windows 7 come with both the 64 bit and 32 bit DVDs in the package (it doesn't make sense for them to market two separate packaged versions).  If you purchased it online via the Microsoft Store for download, they allow you to go back and download either version as well.  Provided you have a legit version of Windows 7, you should have access to either version.
    Either version should work fine on a current Macbook Pro.

  • Will all new macbook pro come with Lion pre-installed?

    I will be purchasing a new MacBook Pro in the next couple of weeks. I presume it will come with OSX Lion pre-installed. I would prefer to have only Snow Leopard installed since I won't be upgrading my other Mac Pro immediately. Will it just be necessary to re-install the Snow Leopard and start from scratch?

    It depends where you buy the mac also if you get a new macbook air it will most undoubtly have LION. But I would say it's safe to assume that most macbooks that have stayed on the shelves at these apple stores have not been opened and updated. So I would think that if you purchased a new mac today unless it was a macbook air it should only have Snow leopard installed on it and they should give you a code to redeem a copy of Lion.
