I have a Mac Book, Can I increase the RAM to 3GB if 2GB is recommended?
I have a Macbook with the following:
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: MacBook
Model Identifier: MacBook2,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.16 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 4 MB
Memory: 1 GB
Bus Speed: 667 MHz
Boot ROM Version: MB21.00A5.B07
SMC Version (system): 1.17f0
An individual on this forum has a similar Mac Book with the following:
2.16GHz Black MacBook
3gbRAM with
Windows XP on a
32gb Boot Camp partition,
Mac OS X (10.6.7),
Mid 2007(2,1),
which information I copy and pasted from this forum reply. Does anyone see any issues with obtaining more than the 2GB I believe is what is recommended?
Any input would be appreciated.

Yes, it will work.

I put 4 GB in my white 2.16 GB MacBook, and the System Profiler recognizes the full 4 GB (although whether it actually utilizes it, I can't say).
This is the kit I used in mine:

OWC says there is actually a benefit to adding the full 4 GB.
Note: Although limited to physically utilizing a maximum of 3GB, there is a performance benefit due to 128 Bit addressing when 4GB( 2GB x 2 Matched set) is installed.

I have a mac book pro. Yesterday the mail app failed to open. I have tried to open it from the dock and the application folder but nothing happens. Does anyone have any suggestions to get it to work?
You don't need iDVD unless you are going to make DVDs. If you are just trying to share files, iDVD won't help you at all.
What you want to do is in iMovie, choose File/Share/File, and export that way. It creates an .mp4 file that should be readable on Macs or Windows.
You could also File/Share/YouTube if you don't mind posting them to YouTube, because of course YouTube videos are watchable by any Mac or Windows computer made in the last 10 years. -
I am unsure whether it can be reformatted? On the summary when I plug in the ipod (pretty sure it's a nano 4th gen) it shows the format as Windows. However now I have a Mac, I can't access the music library on the ipod, and I'm not game to try 'export' as I don't know what it will do, and I won't sync as I will lose that music library. I am thinking of making an appointment to see the Apple staff at the shop but I'm not sure if I will need to get a new ipod in the end??

How can i increase the ram on my mac book?
Trying to upgrade to snow leopard [i know i am way behind!!!!!] but have just been informed that i do not have enough RAM .
What is the easiest way around this???Replace the RAM with 2 GBs of RAM, the maximum for your model. It must meet these minimum requirements:
Snow Leopard General requirements
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Visit OWC or DataMem for suitable memory products. Both are very reliable vendors of memory products for Macs at reasonable prices. -
I would like to access an old Time machine back up from a Core 2 Duo Macbook, but no longer have a Mac. I am going to buy a used machien to acess this. Can I access the backup from a cheaper old ibook, or would I need a Macbook. Is the OS important?
right click on the folder that shows with the red negative sign, and select to "get info". In the long skinny window that appears, look in the "sharing and permissions" section. In the "name" column, you should see your current user name. Ensure the "privilege" is set to Read and Write. If your user name is not in the name column, click the + sign, and add it, ensuring the privileges are set to Read and Write

Can we increase the RAM that is allocated to the graphics chip??
i bought a macbook a few weeks ago and mine has like 2gb of ram so that plenty to go around while my graphics chip (the intel 950 one...) is only allowed to access about 64 so i was wondering if there is anyway to increase the amount allocated to the graphics chip.thnx!
No the allocations is automatic. It actually accesses more as needed.
This is what is listed in the spec as used if you only have 512mb ram. As it says it uses more than you stated as the minimum even with the limited RAM.
1. Memory available to Mac OS X may vary depending on graphics needs. Minimum graphics memory usage is 80MB, resulting in 432MB of system memory available.

My old lap top broke I save all my music what is wave and my pitches is jpeg on external hard drive
the old laptop was a window base laptop
so I got a new mac coming and I been told my hard drive won't won't on the mac and I lose all my photos and music
any help
thanksIf your external drive has the right ports, you should be able to plug it up to your Mac and copy over your photos and wav files. You'll probably (I don't know this for sure as it's been a long, long time since I've dealt with wav files) need to convert the wav files to MP3 or some other format (but I would try opening them directly from iTunes, first - wait a second... yes, iTunes will open wav files).
There are only a fixed number of ways that Windows drive can be formatted and a Mac can read (though not necessarily write) them all. So you should have no trouble with that.
Good luck,
Clinton

My license is for PC I now have a Mac, how can I download the software onto my new Mac?
I purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 for windows. I was given a disc to download it onto my computer. Recenlty my computer died so I purchased a new Mac. How can I download my Adobe Suite license onto my new Mac?
To get a Windows versions of CS5.5 onto a Mac you would have to try using a Windows emulator such as Bootcamp. CS5.5 does not qualify for a platform swap, so you will not be able to acquire a Mac version of it unless you find someone selling it.

My bookmarks and my history don't save - I have a Mac and can't find the solution for Mac
The same problem I've seen in other forums, but the solution is always for PC and not Mac. My bookmarks don't save (or when I try to save a new one in the toolbar, everything that comes after it disappears) and history just doesn't work.
I am exceptionally computer illiterate. I really need some thorough step-by-step instructions on how to fix this.This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

How can i increase the ram size for my applet
Hi all,
I am trying to load my applet on a schlumberger simera 3 classic card.
the applet runs fine on the simulator, but when i run the applet on the card , it crashes after 2 or 3 proactive commands.
Is it because i could be out of memory or stack overflow?
what are the limitations and how can i get around them.
thanksThe limitations are card product specific, so you should ask Schlumberger these questions.

I have a Mac Book Pro with a 320hdd, 2.33 processor, 8 gigs of RAM and OS X 10.9.4 . My hdd crashed and I cannot access it so is it possible to install a 1 terabyte drive with the operating software already installed and also upgrade my RAM to 16 gigs?
If I were you I'd install a small SSD as the boot drive from OWC:
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC
Then put a second large conventional drive either in the optical bay (Data Doubler) or in an external.
You don't say which MBP you have: Size, CPU type.
Also when you upgrade you could see if you can salvage your data from your old HD. Can you hear it spin up? If so Data Rescue IV.
