Ibook memory help on DDR SDRAM SO-DIMMs

I just pruchased the 1 GBPC2700 DDR333 SO-DIMMs memory module and have followed the installation procedure from User's guide. It was pretty easy. I repeated the process and my computer does not recognize the new memory. What am I doing wrong?

It's possible that your new memory stick is defective--that sounds like a memory error code. It happens sometimes. Do you still have your old one handy? Try it and see if the RAM is OK. If it is, contact whoever you got your new one from and ask about a replacement.
Good luck!

Can I combine a PC3200 DDR SDRAM with PC25300 DDR2 SO-DIMM when installing ram?

Can I combine a PC3200 DDR SDRAM with PC25300 DDR2 SO-DIMM when installing ram? I am taking ram out of an iMac G5 ALS (2005) to add to the 1GB ram (3GB max) iMac late 2006 model.

The slots are different sizes I have found out as well. Thanks for the advice!
Yes, there is that small issue but even if they were the same slots you'd just be disappointed a little later.

Ibook memory

i have an ibook g3 in working order , can i transfer memory from an ibook g4[ not working due to faulty logic board ] to the g3

the G3 ibook uses PC100 or PC133 SDRAM while the G4 ibook uses DDR PC2100 or 2700 ram.
the 2 are not compatible, sorry.
If you need ram, check out OWC: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iBooks-PowerBooks/G3-iBook/

Cannot install 1G of DDR sdram for my 865PE neo2 board

recently i buy another DDR333 512mb kingston sdram and wish to install to my PC,
upgrade to 1G memory
After install, when operation system booting (Window ME) come out blue screen with error message
" While initialing devive shell
Cannot find or load require file KRNL386.exe
The path was not found
System halted "
When taken out the new DDR sdram(left 512mb) - boot Ok
Test the new DDR sdram and plug out old one - boot OK
whenever I install 1G of memory , the system will hang
CPU :Pentium 4 2.4GHz
motherboard : MSI 865PE Neo2 (MS-6728 (v1.0) ATX motherboard)
bios version : 2.50
Memory: DDR333 512mb kingston
opreation sytem : Windows ME

SYMPTOMS
If your computer has 1 gigabyte (GB) or more of random access memory (RAM) with shared video memory, the computer may boot to a blue screen error when you try to start Windows Millennium Edition (Me) or Windows 98.
CAUSE
Windows Me and Windows 98 are not designed to handle 1 GB or more of RAM. 1 GB or more of RAM can lead to potential system instability.
RESOLUTION
To work around this problem, reduce the amount of memory that is installed in your computer to 512 megabytes (MB) or less.

Somone please answer memory help

I hope this is in the right forum.
Im not much on overclocking I had bad results.
with the memory I have pny 2 512 dimms 2700 is it possible go to 400 fsb and can you also tell me how I enable duel channel? could you also supply me with somthing I can read up on it and help me learn a little more about it.
I used the forums before and they worked awsome great fast results thx...
I have waited a day for somone to answer still nothing I dont know if Im in the wrong forum somone please give me a hint.

You can try it on your own risk but I don't believe your ram will work. Pc2700 means 333MHz, 400MHz may be too much.

Bios post screen shows only 8gig memory memort-z in bios shows dimm 1 dim 3 and dimm 5 as populated win7 only sees 7.99 gigs of memory. I have tried reseating the sticks in different slots, I have checked for proper seating of CPU and bent pins. in bios X.M.P. causes blue screen, the timming of the memory defaults to 7.7.7.20 if I change this to the recomended 9.10.9.27 as on the tag on the modules or to 9.9.9.24 as on corsairs web site system crashes. I do noy know where to change the voltage to 1.65. Shouldent the system see all memory if I am not overclocking? I ran memtest-86 all modules check ok when tested indivually in slot 1, however when slot 1 and 3 have modules in the memtest-86 hangs at 5% could this be a bios setting?
http://tinypic.com/r/30xizuv/7

In BIOS Cell Menu, disable XMP. Disable 'Spread Spectrum'. DRAM Voltage (V), change from 'Auto' to 1.65V's. Memory Ratio 6, Uncore Ratio 12, bclk 167, 'DRAM Timing Mode', set to 'Linked'. 'Advance DRAM Config.', change CR to 2, timings 9 10 9 27, leave tRFC alone or change it to 88, your choice. Use 'only' the black dimm slots. Check the suspected faulty dimm slot for contacts out of place.

Running your memory the right way/ running 4 DIMM slots on P55 boards

Dear Forumers,
Lately there are a lot of questions, about motherboards from the P55 range not starting on first boot.
This could be due to wrongly arranged memory DIMM's in your slots.
Some people out there, like me, were convinced that you could choose either dualchannel.
Well, its not the case.
Like I was pointed out earlier, you must use a certain slot, otherwise the memory will not be detected properly.
According to Intel specs, DIMM0, must always be populated.
This means that to run dualchannel with only 2 DIMM's, that you must check your manual and look carefully which slot is for DIMM0.
According to the manual, it will be slot DIMM1 on your board, but watch out, this is not the slot closest to cpu, on current MSI P55 boards, (CD-53, GD-41, GD-45, GD-55, GD-65, GD-80 and the Big Bang Trinergy), its the second slot from cpu.
Picture of P55 mainboard:
From a manual from a MSI P55 board:
So for dualchannel with 2 sticks, you must populate the black slots, DIMM1 and DIMM3 and for single channel with one stick DIMM1 most be used.
Please bear in mind that DIMM0 in Intel spec.sheets means DIMM1 on your board.
The link to technical sheet from intel about : i7 8xx cpu's
http://download.intel.com/design/processor/datashts/322164.pdf
A short quote with the relevant data:
Quote
Rules for Populating Memory Slots
In all modes, the frequency of system memory is the lowest frequency of all memory
modules placed in the system, as determined through the SPD registers on the
memory modules. The system memory controller supports one or two DIMM
connectors per channel for unbuffered DIMMs. For dual-channel modes, both channels
must have at least one DIMM connector populated and for single-channel mode only a
single-channel may have one or more DIMM connectors populated.
Note: DIMM0 must always be populated within any memory configuration. DIMM0 is the
furthest DIMM within a channel and is identified by the CS#[1:0], ODT[1:0], and
CKE[1:0] signals.
For more info, please read datasheet
Also, let me remind you that this goes for ALL P55 boards out there, its not just an MSI thing.
This has to do with the fact that the memorycontroller now sits on die on the Lynnfield cpu's.
Im hoping to end the debate, like I had (and I was wrong), about the fact that you should be able to use any channel, like you could on the S775 boards, you just cant anymore.
Update 26 december 2009:
Running all 4 DIMM slots with memorysticks
It seems that a lot of people are having problems running with all memoryslots occupied, e.g. not booting, BSOD and other crazy stuff.
If you have such problems try the following first, before running back to the store to swap stuff out.
- Raise Vdimm to 1.65V, its still a save voltage for the board and this way the memory gets a little more power and in 99% of the cases, this will solve the issue.
- Try booting/installing with one stick first in DIMM1 on the board (see above).
- If it boots/installs, let it go all the way till windows is done.
- Turn off pc and add a second DIMM in DIMM slot 3, restart and let i boot all the way again in windows till its done.
- Do the same again for DIMM2 and last DIMM4.
We know its a bit of a hassle, but it worked for a lot of people, so be sure to try this before anything else.
And again, its not just an MSI thing, there are more manufacturers out there with the same issues, this also has to do with the fact the memorycontroller now sits on die with cpu.
I'll edit if new boards come out.

Upgrading Mother Board (P55-GD65 with i3 processor) BIOS [/b] from 1.3 to 1.6 corrected my Computer re-starting soon after the Boot sequence began. Putting the four 2GB RAM in one at a time in the suggested order in sequence with the socket numbers fixed the problem earlier, but only for the next, one boot. The problem then returned as long as all 4 DRAM were installed. Raising the DRAM voltage did not improve things.
I used the Forum's program for flashing the new version of Bios using USB Flash Memory for boot into DOS.
Thank you, DaLoona, for your post notifying me this had to do with the motherboard and was probably not a failure, but a "normal" occurance in certain conditions. I was no longer inclined to return the board and perhaps end up with the same error in the replacement, and no longer worried about the rebooting doing damage.
In Bios Setup I had already reduced an entry to do with number of overclocking tries from 3 to 1 (the minimum choice) which reduced the number of re-boots to 1.

Everytime I export from FCP using comressor I am lose my audio, any ideas as to why this is happening. Or do I have somthing turned off and I am just missing it? Dual 2.7 Ghz PowerPC G5 1.5 GB DDR SDRAM, Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Exporting via Compressor may be recommended but it is slow and doesn't fully support all available filters, etc.
Try exporting the timeline as a QT Movie (the "normal" export) using Current Settings and them submit the resultant clip to Compression. Works for me...

Updating iMac G5 PowerPC, 1.8 GB DDR SDRAM, software 10.4.11

Hello Mac'ers
Working with an "old" iMac G5 with a PowerPC G5 processor, 1.8 GB DDR SDRAM and software 10.4.11 I often encounter problems to load software and add
newer hardware. (Examples: iTunes 10, Magic Trackpad wireless, a.s.o). They all require an OSX 10.6 or later and/or another processor (Intel, Dual core). Can I upgrade my iMac with
a) hardware and b) by a software, later than 10.5? Thank you all for answering.

Leopard 10.5.8 is as far as you (actually we ) can go on a G5 iMac.
Leopard is no longer available from Apple so you will have to look on eBay or Amazon for a black retail install disk. Do not buy a gret update disk. Be prepared to pay some real money for Leopard.
iTunes 10.6.3 is the last version of iTunes to support Mac computers with Mac OS X 10.5.8 or PowerPC processors.

(1) My iBooks Author help resources are in a foreign language. How do I change it to English? (2) Is there an iBooks Author pdf manual I can download?

(1) My iBooks Author help resources are in a foreign language. How do I change it to English? (2) Is there an iBooks Author pdf manual I can download?

There is no PDF available. I sent a link to a page full of links and info not much different from the help files.
There are many Free books in the iBooks store which will take you through the basics of iBA.
I like "Create your first Interactive book using iBooks Author"   its created by iBook-Widgets.com - who also supply widgets at a price.. but the book is very free and very good.. search the iBooks store for their title.
You cannot use iBA on an iPad, however, I also use the iPad app -- "Book Creater"   ( redjumper.net ) its very low priced around $3 or so. The people who create it are helpful and friendly. You can distribut your books to friends and family using Dropbox or other cloud storage. If you want to creaet an ePub file and then upload to the iBooks store, its not difficult. You create the book on your iPad. It is no where near as good as iBA for functionality.. but it spossible to make really good eBooks.
I think Applecare shoud come into effect with the language problems if it can be found to be a glitch on the computer. Applecare is product based and does not apply to software.
Take it stage by stage,   visit your Apple store and   ask if they can solve the help files in langauges first, then react to the answer, it could be they can solve the issue which leave you a clear path with iBA.
Also you can gather more indormation about how to use it with the help files.
Try the info I have included and   see how it develpops... any problems get back here and we can look for alternatives.
try this... https://itunes.apple.com/app/id661166101?mt=8&&referrer=click%3Da63089e4-e3d4-49 e9-896a-58e0cfd50acf

Happy New Year... hope its a good one....

IBooks Author help persists in opening in French.

After downloading iBooks Author, help opened once, the first time, in English. Ever since it persists in opening in French. I have quit and restarted app a number of times, but always opens help in French. I can see the web page in English, but not help.
Thanks.

I belive you are refering to the help files accessed by opening the iBooks Author app, and then selecting from the Menu bar at the top: Help > iBooks Author Help. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Those help files seem to derive their language from the preferred ones in the current user account language preferences. If you open the System Preferences app, and select Language & Region, what is listed under Preferred Languages? If French is on the list, and you don't ever use the language, try removing it. If removing it is not an option for you, at least drag it to the bottom of the list.

Is it feasible/cost effective to upgrade my G5, 2 GHz Dual PowerPC processors, 2 GB DDR SDRAM to an Intel system? There are no updates for PowerPC systems any longer.

Is it feasible/cost effective to upgrade my current MAC G5, dual 2GHz powerPC, 2GB DDR SDRAM, running OS 10.4.1.1 to an Intel board & processor(s)? Power PC G5 no longer has updates available. Things such as the newest version of Flash require an intel system.
Any and all advice will be greatly appreciated.

Well you can upgrade your 10.4.11 G5 to 10.5.8. But you lose Classic, and don't gain any Boot Camp capability. Only Intel Macs have Boot Camp, and still no Classic. You also have be mindful, if you buy too new, you won't have Rosetta capability which allows PowerPC applications to run on Intel Macs that were designed for Mac OS X. Macs that ship with 10.7 or newer have no PowerPC support for applications or drivers. See this user tip: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2295
