Intel's New Processor
i just read on intel's web page that they came up with a new core 2 duo for notebooks. i was just wondering if anyone know whether apple is gonna use this new processor for their MacBook Pro and if so when will the new MacBook Pro be ready?thanks!
I have not heard anything - I can't see how
speculating can be a violation of the forum, because
daily many people here are speculating whether or not
Apple will correct some of the issues people are
having. It is my understanding of the terms of use
refer to Apple products. Just my 2 cents nothing
personal.
very good answer ...

? Why does my Photoshop PS2 open on my Mac Book Pro OS 10.6.8 Intel Core 2 Processor but not on my just purchased Mac Book Pro OS 10.7.3? On my new machine I get a message saying "You can't open Photoshop CS2 because Power PC applications are no longer supported". I don't have a Power PC on either machine and this App does run on the older machine with an Intel processor. benrusy
This is not new. The fact that Mac OS no longer supports PowerPC applications starting with OS X Lion has been known for over a year now. You'll need to upgrade to the latest version of Photoshop

I have an Imac with the Intel Core Duo Processor. Will I be able to upgrade to the new OSX Lion?
You need a Core 2 Duo or later to use Lion. You will need to install Snow Leopard in order to access the Mac App Store to download Lion when it becomes available.

Does itunes work with the new intel core duo processor?
i want to go buy a new laptop and the one I have in mind has the new intel core duo T2300 or the T2400 processor. Can i still download itunes onto this computer? Does it meet the requirments becuase the download page says you need a pentium or BETTER? The new macs are putting them in their computers, but will the windows and intel duo be able to support the itunes application?
are you asking if it is compatible meaning will it
install/run or are you asking if flash is
optimized to take advantage of this particular setup?

Help Too MSI GX640 Intel Core i5 Processor 2,2.6
Hi hope you can help me
I have a MSI GX640 Intel ® Core ™ i5 Processor 2,2.6
I would like to have a higher CPU in've heard it may well do
Intel ® Core ™ i5 Processor 2,6.7 perhaps more I hope it will in time at
The reason I do not buy the new model is that it has firewire as my new HD camera
so, I prefer this design usually one is also
what else can I do enough I need firewire could dilate
may awnings me wrapped Intel ® Core ™ i5 Processor I can go out to buy and put in
it is in is an i5 430M I know that it goes beyond my warranty on used and Inge on
it is my understanding
so I can get it to be 2,6,7 welcome increased

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that your MacBook Air is not charging as expected. In this situation there are troubleshooting steps that I would recommend. Please use the attached article as a resource for steps to help you resolve this situation.
Mac notebooks: All about batteries - Apple Support
My battery is not charging
Confirm the correct wattage AC adapter for the computer. A power adapter rated for a lower wattage than is required for the system may not reliably charge the computer. For assistance identifying the proper adapter, review Intel Based Mac notebooks: Identifying the right power adapter and power cord--US. Additional adapter troubleshooting is available in Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters. If issues persist please reset the SMC.
Best regards,

I know that the new iMacs have Intel Core 2 Processors in them, and I am considering buying one next summer. It will run at a speed of 2.4 GHz. I have just one question on speed. When a processor is "dual core", does it have two cores running at 2.4 GHz each, or is it two cores running at 1.2 GHz each to total 2.4 GHz?
P.S.- This does not affect my descision of buying a Mac.No it's not the same as having a 4.8GHz single processor. Like Duane said the total processor speed is 2.4GHz. However with 2 cores it's just like having 2 processors running at 2.4GHz each. This means the system can handle multiple tasks very well but the over all processor speed is still 2.4GHz. How much better than a single processor this is solely depends on what kind of applications you are running. Some applications are written to use multiple cores and some are not. Over all Mac OS X is designed to use multiple cores and practically all of Apple's applications will as well. So even in the case of a particular Application that can only uses 1 processor, the benefit is the rest of your Apps including the system can still be utilizing the other core simultaneously.
When comparing the C2D to a faster clocked Pentium 4, besides it being multi-core, it also has a much more efficient architecture. It creates less heat and has a larger on chip cache. Both equates to a better performing chip even at a lower clock speed. However real time speed differences will again completely depend on what you are running in comparison.
As for the video GPU you might take a look at these comparisons:

Adding a new processor + RAM to a Sun Fire X2270
Hi,
I have a Sun Fire X2270 with Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5504 @ 2.00GHz CPU and 8 GB RAM from factory.
The server has 2 processors sockets, I want to add another new processor (before it gets older).
Can I just buy a new processor from Internet? I called Oracle but I think they are not interested in selling and sending just one processor.
According to the tech specs of the server hardware I have a couple of Intel processors options apart of the one that came preinstalled, the same Intel Xeon 5500 series.
This is the one I want:
Intel® Xeon® Processor L5520 (8M Cache, 2.26 GHz, 5.86 GT/s Intel® QPI)
http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=40201
Can I just buy it and plug it in? no special version from Sun/Oracle? isn't the same exact model of the one that already has, but the same Intel series, is this possible to have different processors models? this one has a couple of more features and it is faster.
Of course I also will buy more RAM, what do you say about this one:
Kingston KTS-SF313/8G 8GB 1333MHz Reg ECC Module

Flash Player won’t install after downloading
On the first attempt to install v14, Flash Player v13 was installed and working fine.
I opened the installation package for the new Flash Player, followed standard protocol for installing Mac software and it hung before retrieving anything.
Subsequently, while watching the beach ball spin, I got an error message that the installer could not retrieve the v13 Flash Player software.
So I uninstalled Flash Player 13 and again attempted to install v14, only to see the spinning beach ball followed by a message that the installer could not retrieve the v14 Flash Player software.
I am running OS X v10.9.4 on an early 2013 MBP/Retina display with 3GHz Intel Core i7 processor and 8GB DDR3 1600 MHz Ram.
If you have any ideas or suggestions regarding my issue, please let me know.
Sincerely.

I have and older MacBook Intel 2 Duo processor 2.4 Ghz, 4GB mem, running 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10. Yahoo has just informed me that they will no longer support Safari 5.1.10 and my question is how much higher than 10.6.8 can I go to get a better Safari before I start reducing performance on an older computer? It is about 6 years old but runs fine for my purposes.
If you want to stay with 10.6, try Firefox which is still being updated.
Firefox
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
8 GB or more of available space
Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.
Application Compatibility
Applications Compatibility (2)
Do a backup before installing.

From the Creative Cloud FAQ:
To take advantage of all the great features in the new Creative Cloud desktop apps, customers should upgrade to a newer version of Mac OS X. Some of the new CC apps do not support v10.6 and will not install. Minimum system requirements for each Creative Cloud app can be found on the tech specs page on Adobe.com. -
Power mac G5 dual 2.3 - less than 3 yrs old - needs new processor?
I have a PM G5 Dual 2.3 that was purchased in April 06.
It was working perfectly, as it always had on Friday Jan 23 at 12 pm. I went out to lunch and came back an hour later and it was off and could not be restarted by ANY and ALL means.
I took it to the local Apple store and the diagnosis was that it needs a new processor. I have had Apples for 20 years and they have all lasted until a newer model was desired - not needed. This computer is barely over 2 1/2 yrs old.
Does anyone know of anything else it could be? I do not want to spend 1200.00 on a new processor that is already archaic and not an intel.
Also, I did not have the 3 year AppleCare on it (unfortunately) so it's all on me to pay.
Has anyone had any success negotiating with Apple for a discounted repair?
Thanks!Hi LG111-
Greetings and welcome to the Apple Discussion boards
Total bummer. Without AppleCare the cost of repair has been known to be quite high.
You could just run the machine on one processor.
As far as negotiating with Apple, you can always try, however its been out of warranty for quite a long time.
Luck-

There are many possible reasons for that.
Most likely a corrupted cookie or cache file for that site may be responsible.
On the Safari menu bar got to Safari -> Empty Cache
Then go to Safari -> Preferences and click on the 3rd symbol from right.
Click on Details -> type the name of the particular site (e.g. facebook) in the search field and delete all upcoming entry's.

I'm about to buy a new MacBook Pro and seem to recall something about Intel releasing a new Centrino in June, or something like that. Does this mean there is a new processor on the way for Macs in June? I'd hate to buy it now and have such a big upgrade happen a few months later.
Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.Just found this on MacRumors. If Apple doesn't even have the current revision in their computers I can't see this new one getting in there any time soon. Anyway, here it is:
Digitimes reports that Intel is poised to launch the Montevina platform at Computex Taipei 2008, which takes place from June 3-7, 2008.
Montevina is the next revision to Intel's mobile platform and will carry the consumer brand "Centrino 2" to distiguish it from the current "Centrino" brand which has encompassed a number of revisions (Carmel, Sonoma, Napa and Santa Rosa).
Six new 45nm notebook CPUs accompanying the release will feature a 1066MHz Front Side Bus with clock speeds ranging from 2.26-3.06GHz. The recently released Penryn processors range from 2.1 to 2.8GHz and offer a 800MHz Front Side Bus. The Penryn processors have not yet been incorporated into Apple's notebook line, despite persistent rumors of an imminent release.
Meanwhile, Digitimes also notes that Intel is planning on releasing 45-nm processors similar to the MacBook Air's custom processor in the 3rd quarter of this year. -
this may sound dumb.
When Apple does indeed switch to Intel couldnt we just buy a new processor?
then instead of being left behind or slowed down we could upgrade?This is totally incorrect
The processor is not the only thing within a computer that makes it work. There is a chipset of multiple components and lots of traces built into the 'motherboard' that carry out the data/power/error checking.
The PowerPC 970/G5 Architecture uses HyperTransport which uses very few intercommunication wires and a south bridge chip to handle I/O.
The current, and near future Intel line of processors does not use Hyper Transport, and it also requires a north bridge chip to handle processor to memory, and processor to south bridge communication.
Not to mention all new, and totally different traces, and most likely as well different memory. Unless it changed recently IA32/x86-64 architectures use parity memory and Mac architectures use non-parity so all the memory is incompatible/wrong speed.
The only things really in your system built today that could theoretically work in the future would be teh SATA drive, and the Airport Extreme card if you have one. Most everything else would be different completely.
There is no way to make that type of an architecture shift 'upgradable' short of 'rip and replace' -

When I choose Restart in Yosemite it shows my 10.6.8 hard drive. But when I click Restart in 10.6.8 it does NOT show my Yosemite drive. I used to know how to get the startup screen that showed multiple drives but I've forgotten it. How do I do that?
