Is OS X Mavericks supported on Macbook (13-inch, Mid 2010)?

Can I upgrade my OS to OS X Mavericks on my Macbook (13-inch, Mid 2010)? Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Of course. OS X Mavericks requires a Late 2008 Aluminum or Early 2009 or newer MacBook, so you can upgrade to OS X Mavericks.
Open the Mac App Store and download OS X Mavericks. Make a backup of your data with Time Machine and check that your apps are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com

  • Can I use DDR3 ram 1066Mhz memory instead of 1067 Mhz in a MacBook (13-inch, Mid 2010)?. In my system it shows 1067 mhg ddr3?

    Can I use DDR3 ram 1066Mhz memory instead of 1067 Mhz in a MacBook (13-inch, Mid 2010)?. In my system it shows 1067 Mhz ddr3? Because I am from india. And I could find 1067Mhz DDR3 in any store.
    please guide me. I want to upgrade my machine RAM from 2GB to more 6 GB.
    Thanks.

    The RAM is actually 1066 2/3. Some manufacturers round it up to 1067 some round it down to 1066

  • Does Snow Leopard support this MacBook? MC372 Mid 2010

    Hi,
    I'm looking to buy a refurbished Mac Book Pro.
    MC372 Mid 2010
    It has Osx 10.7 installed, I may need to install Snow Leopard on instead.
    I have a 10.6.3 DVD, will it support this version Mac Book Pro with
    an i5 processor?
    Thanks
    Mike

    If you have a Mac Pro desktop system running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 you can Clone the Macintosh HD partition to an external drive and then Boot your mac notebook from that external and then Clone the internal drive of the notebook from that external.
    The only thing I would do before starting this process is to run the 10.6.8 Combo update on the Mac Pro desktop system to make sure all the proper drivers are installed so it will run on the Mac notebook you have.
    The Combo updater loads all drivers for all model Mac computers that version of OS X can run on. The Software Update version of the 10.6.8 update only loads/installs drivers for the specific Mac computer model it is being installed on.
    You can download that Combo updater from the Apple Support Download website.

  • Issues with Macbook 13 inch (Mid 2010)

    So I have been having issues with my Macbook. It has been going on for a week now.. Mostly Youtube is the issue. Some videos will work and some wont. I have updated all the software updates. Firefox, computer update, adobe flash, silverlight. ect. None semed to work. I also downloaded the new OS Mavericks software but since I have 2GB its going slower. My laptop is an older version as well. I have the 10.9.3 version right now. I went to the Apple store yesturday and it seemed fine there, but when I got back home it started again.  I kind of want to uninstall the new Mavericks but I'm afraid I will delete all my files and such. If anyone can throughly tell me how to do that, that would be greatly appreciated. Also before doing that I want to uninstall Firefox and I thought I did but when I pull it out of my trash everything is still there and doesnt ask me to intall. If anyone knows how to fix any or all of this please help me. I am not good with this techy stuff!!

    The Genius bar or specialists there are on staff and on payroll
    so they can suggest a course of action, and diagnose the slow
    action of the computer.
    Take along your Snow Leopard 10.6 or maybe they can re-install
    from their own tech discs the former version of 10.6 but without
    your old Snow Leopard applications that came with the MacBook.
    Since people here who answer inquiries are not Apple staff and
    do not represent Apple Inc, it should be clear that some of us
    who volunteer are owners and users of their product but are not
    and do not have an affiliation with Apple. This is a user-to-user
    discussion help forum; and you can ask as many questions as
    you like & in different sections if you have different things to say.
    Had you posted in the Mavericks 10.9 area, for example, and said
    "How do I revert my Mavericks mid-2010 MacBook to Snow Leopard"
    that would be front exposure to people who focus on or know more
    about a new latest OS X than a MacBook series (2006 to 2010) era.
    Did you re-install Adobe Flash player in your system, and get it to
    work past Gatekeeper's watchful security? There is a way to do it.
    Anyway, once you revert to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 you could then run
    any older applications you had from that era, including some that
    will not run in Mavericks or any system past Snow Leopard.
    If you have the original grey-label install restore DVD set that came
    with your MacBook, that would be the ideal way to revert the OS X.
    An "erase and install" should do nicely if you don't want any of the
    things you did in Mavericks to survive... Then update to 10.6.8 combo.
    Then run Software Update again. Also, then get a Flash player for it.
    {You could ask a question directed to Carolyn, or others; I will ignore it.}
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Macbook pro 15-inch, Mid 2010 crashing very bad after mavericks update

    Hello Community,
    I updated my 15-inch, Mid 2010 macbook pro from snow leopard to mavericks with the gratis update that appeared one day in march i believe. Since then its been crashing sporadically with the simplest of actions like creating a new folder. I thought it was due to some peripherals USBs (which sometimes helped when unplugged) but now i cannot single out anything.
    I must admit I am not really knowledgeable when it comes to software fixes, but i will try to do anything you recommend can help. (really would like to avoid a clean sweep of HD...)
    Thank you all in advanced,

    You have the MacBookPro6,2, the Edsel of Macs. It may have a logic-board defect covered by this recall.
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider, to have the machine tested. The routine hardware diagnostics used by service providers do not detect the fault. There is a specific test for this issue that Apple calls "VST" (for "Video Switching Test.") Ask for it. A "Failed" result means that the fault is present. However, according to reports, some units may pass the test, and yet still be deemed eligible for repair under the program. Your experience may vary.
    Print the first page of the panic report, if any, and the support page linked above, and bring them with you.
    Note that the recall only applies within three years of purchase. After that, Apple may refuse the service. In that case, you may be quoted a price of about $300 (in the U.S.) for a "depot repair," which involves shipping the unit to a central repair facility and takes about two weeks. For that flat fee, anything found wrong with it should be fixed, not just the logic board.
    The model was discontinued on February 24, 2011, so the recall has nominally ended. Some units may have been sold after that date by Apple as refurbished, or by resellers as new, and they should still be covered.
    Some owners report that their unit was repaired under the program after the deadline had passed. Others report that the repair was covered by the extended warranty from a credit-card issuer. Again, your experience may vary.
    Sometimes the replacement part is also defective, so be prepared for that possibility.
    If it's too late for your unit to be repaired under the program, and you don't want to pay for a new logic board, you may be able to stop the panics by disabling automatic graphics switching. To use the discrete graphics processor, you'll need a third-party utility to switch to it manually.
    If you're dissatisfied with Apple's response, please keep in mind that no one here represents the company or can help with customer-service issues.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • MacBook Pro 15-inch, Mid 2010 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5 with Mavericks is very slow

    Hi everybody,
    i have already seen this discussion (https://discussions.apple.com/message/24018625#24018625) started by campitor and allegedly solved by arthur but only for campitor's concrete case and already closed. Therefore I have made the same checkup with Etrecheck (see below). It would be really great to solve this problem because I need my mac for work and I am getting really desperate: it's just too slow for effective working. I am really desperate and really thankful for any kind of hint or help that could bring back my machine to normal workable speed.
    cheers,
    Cris

  • Why is not Windows 8 natively supported on MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010)?

    Hello,
    Can somebody from apple say why they don't add native support of Windows 8 for MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2010) when it is supported on 15-inch model?
    Looking in: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
    I know that Windows 8 is possible to install and use, but I think it does not make sense to limiting just 13-inch model in bootcamp
    Thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    It's a restriction, because the Mid 2010 13-inch MacBook Pro is completely compatible with Windows 8 (it meets all its requirements), but Apple didn't want to provide Windows 8 Boot Camp drivers for it. You can run Windows 8 if you want, but it won't work properly.
    Apart from that, there are some how-to's in the Internet in order to install Windows 8 Boot Camp drivers in unsupported Macs

  • Does MacBook Pro 13 inch (mid 2010 model) Support DP MST 1.2?

    Does the MacBook's Pro 13 inch (mid 2010 model) mini Display Port output support the DisplayPort 1.2 Multi Stream protocol?
    The graphics card on this model is the Nvidia GeForce 320M.
    Thank you.

    DsiplayPort and its variant Mini DisplayPort are interesting protocols because they use a packet interface to send mostly the changed data. There is no gratuitous repainting the screen with the same data (every 1/60 second or similar) as performed by almost every protocol that came before it.
    This would free a lot of time on the interface for the information to support an additional display in the newly freed "dead time" when nothing has changed on the primary display. What would be needed at the computer end is a different address for the second and subsequent display(s). What would be needed at the Display-end is a display with a "daisy chain" output port (it cannot be the same as an input port because the signal drivers are set up to accept input, not drive output) to be able to pass the signal along to another display.
    To the best of my knowledge, Apple has not yet taken advantage of this ability to address a second display, and at this writing these interfaces on Apple computers support only one Mini DisplayPort display.
    There may be the ability to daisy-chain a second Thunderbolt display off the first Thunderbolt display in a chain, when working with a Mac's Thunderbolt connector.
    But at this writing, any Mini DisplayPort device connected to that port is always the last device on the chain.

  • Mavericks slowed down my MacBook Pro 13 inch (Mid 2010)

    I did a clean install of 10.6.3 (which came with my MacBook Pro).  Then upgraded to 10.6.8 to be able to download Mavericks from the App store.  Installed Mavericks and everything (boot-up, application lauch, opening folders, etc.) has been dragging since then.  Can someone explain a better way to do the installation or changes to make to improve the speed?
    Thank you,
    MacBook Pro 13 inch (Mid 2010)

    I have the same problem.  I have 4gb of RAM; I was going to upgarde to 8, but seeing that you have 8, this probably won't help.
    I feel like it's progressivly getting slower as well.
    I was going to get a solid state drive and more RAM to fix the issue.
    Looking at my activity monitor I show this:
    As it sits right now, I have just Chrome open, facebook tab, email tab and this thread tab open and it's using 3.99 of my memory.  Kernal_task is using the most memory.
    I dont want to buy a new computer but maybe it's just too old?
    Any info would be great.  I'm not terribly technical and I love my mac, makes me sad to think of getting rid of it!  Altho excited for a new one

  • Did MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010) support memory: 8GB 1333MHz DDR3

    Did MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010) support memory: 8GB 1333MHz DDR3??

    The correct RAM specifications for your 2010 MBP are:  204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
    What you quote may or may not work, and if it does seem to work, it may not work correctly.  For one to deviate from the correct specifications often leads to unnecessary complications.  One only has to explore many posts on this subject on this forum.
    Best places to get RAM for your MBP are from OWC or Crucial.
    Note, I have a 2010 MBP and I have made said upgrade.
    Ciao.

  • HT1237 Searching for an EFI Firmware update to enable Lion Internet Recovery on MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010)

    Hi All,
    My Mid-2010 Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch started having random kernel panics lately (more than 1 month of random kernel panics now), usually associated with request such as "open new tab in Safari" etc.
    Since I installed 2x4GB RAM modules from Crucial when I bought my MBP (they are +- 2 years old now) and also exchanged my DVD-drive for an extra SSD that now runs the system (fully updated 10.7.4) I have a feeling that those kernel panics might be HW related.
    I wanted to run Apple Hardware Test but found out that it is no longer supported on Lion. Since I don't have any optical drive to install AHT from (also I don't have the CDs with me atm), I found out that I can install an EFI Firmware update that enables internet-based (?) AHT.
    At http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4904# , the link from MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2010) links to MacBook Pro EFI Firmware Update 2.6 which is for Early 2010 models only and doesn't allow me to run the installation process. I'm looking for an EFI update to enable Apple Hardware Test on my Mid-2010 Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch.
    Is there an update that can do this? Is there a wrong hyperlink on Apple page or am I searching for a wrong update?
    Also, even though this should probably be in a separate topic, can anyone please point me to the right direction for a good Apple Kernel Panic how-to-read-those topic?
    Thank you very much in advance.

  • How to update a MacBook Pro 17 inch mid 2010 with SSD?

    I know that this question probably been asked many times before, but i can't really find the answers to my specific questions.
    I want to update my MacBook Pro 17 inch mid 2010 / 2,66-GHz Intel Core i7-processor, 8 GB memory, running latest Mavericks version (full specs: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP581?viewlocale=nl_NL) with a SSD (i think a 500GB) to speed up my MacBook Pro.
    I have about 400GB of data, personal and work related (mostly design work) that is really important to me of course. I use 3 harddrives (one offsite) at the moment to backup everything using Time Machine which works great, because i always can fall back on it when i delete something accidentally.
    The physical installation looks quite simple to do, but i have some questions about the entire procedure i hope someone can help me with:
    Which SSD will fit in my Macbook Pro the best (specs)? What to look for?
    And what about TRIM support to make SSD last longer, i heared that Apple default drives that come with the Mac will support TRIM, but what about any other SSDs on the market do support it and if so which ones?
    There are different ways to do install SSD, but what is best procedure?
    Clone HDD to SSD with Carbon Copy Cloner or restore from Time Machine?
    Clean install with Bootable USB flash drive with Mavericks and restore from Time Machine?
    Buy a USB enclosure for SSD and Clone HDD to SSD with Carbon Copy Cloner first and boot it to check and than install the drive?
    Could anybody help me with this?
    Thank you.

    Look here for the maximum memory for each MBP model:
    http://www.everymac.com/systems/by_capability/actual-maximum-ram-capacity-of-mac s.html
    The limit is given by the memory controller ("northbridge").
    There are no thermal drawbacks expanding the memory to the maximum supported limit...
    However, as explained, often Apple did specify an "official" maximum RAM amount which is in reality shorter than the real value, simply because, when the machine was launched, memory sticks of the proper size for giving maximum capacity were not available.
    Apple never revises the specs after the launch...
    But this did not happen in your case: the maximum memory for mid-2010 Core machines appears to be effectively just 8 Gb, form the page linked above...
    Final remark: in my experience, the SSD counts much more than memory for speeding up a laptop! As you already have 8 Gb, there is little value to expand to 16Gb even if it was posisble. Better to invest the same money in a  larger SSD...
    I expanded mine because it was equipped with just 4 Gb, and purchasing 16Gb Corsair was costing as 8 Gb Crucial. However, it was not a wise choice, those cheap Corsair memories were bad, the seller had to exchange both sticks...
    If I could come back, it was better to spend more and buy Crucial memory sticks!

  • Macbook Pro 15inch Mid 2010 crash and reboot itself

    I have a Macbook Pro 15 inch Mid 2010, Intel Core i5 and Nvidia Geforce GT 330m 256 MB with the latest Maverick as a OS X
    I been having some issues lately whatever I open from the web or even open an email it would just crash and reboot itself. Not overheating so far I see and I did not install any other softwares that could cause the problem. It is ramdom. It was happening previous OS X and if figure that by updating to the latest would maybe help also. I even did a full erase and reinstall ox x and still it does the same issue.
    I think it is a video problem from what I may have read or maybe not and if it is what can I do? do I need to buy a new board? what would be the cost?
    I would think which I am sure my warranty is done now.
    Anyone can read this error I have supplied and know what I can do to fix this issue would be greatly appreciated.
    Cheers!

    already did...they will only replace the logic board.
    At least it work very well without connecting to the big monitor. But sadly i got this huge monitor with wireless mouse and keyboad sitting doing nothing now.
    my only other choice is to see if i can find another logic board on ebay cheaper than apple.
    Very fustrating...knowing that apple knew it was a problem they made and had a limited timeframe to replace the board at no cost. Now because warranty is done...Apple basically saying not our problem should have got apple care program.
    I believe if the company make an error with certain hardware they are responsible regardless the warranty is on or dead.
    I love apple products...but sadly the support is very dissapointing. Get extra warranty or have Apple Care program. If dont have it....not our problem even if the hardware was bad.

  • Windows 7 desktop does not fill entire screen on macbook pro 17" (mid 2010)

    Hi,
    First of all I apologize for posting such a long question but in order to best describe the problem I am having with my MacBook Pro, I had to mention every detail.
    I recently installed windows 7 x64 home premium on my new macbook pro 17 inch (mid 2010). After successfully installing the bootcamp drivers (version 3.1) I have noticed that my screen resolution has become slightly smaller than before. There are half an inch thick black bars on the right side as well as on the top of the screen.
    This problem is not limited to windows, I'm having the same problem in mac osx after the windows 7 installation. Even on the start up gray screen.
    I have tried almost every trick in the book, adjusting the screen resolution from the display settings menu (which by the way are on 1920x1080), checking all the settings on the nvidia control panel, resetting the SMC, resetting the VRAM, running the hardware diagnostic test (short as well as the long one), formatting the windows partition, formatting the Mac OSX partition then performing a fresh install of both. So far, I have been frustrated with failure.
    After trying my best to resolve this issue on my own, I tried my luck with apple support. The customer representative was very helpful and listened carefully as I explained the problem to him. He asked me first to check for any available updates on my mac osx as well as in win 7. I told him that I had already installed every available update in both the OS's. He then asked me to reset the SMC and after that to reset the VRAM. Even though I had already tried this, I still gave it another shot but that didn't help.
    Since my MBP was still under the standard warranty, (I have also purchased the Apple Care Protection Plan) he asked me to take it to an Apple Authorized Service Provider. I took his advice and went to the nearest AASP. The Apple Engineer over there performed the same steps, adjusting screen resolution, resetting SMC and VRAM, but even he was not able to resolve this problem. He suggested that I should get my graphics cars replaced or if required upon inspection, the logic board replaced. To be very honest, I was very skeptical about his suggestion as the laptop is brand new, hardly 2 months old. How is it possible that there could be a problem with the hardware? I asked him whether it is possible to restore the firmware of the graphics card as the problem could be software related. He said that Apple have not started issuing firmware restoration CD's for the latest mid 2010 MBP's so a firmware restore won't be possible. My best bet would be to get the graphics card replaced or the whole logic board replaced.
    So you see, I have been down almost every possible road which could have lead to resolving this issue but unfortunately I am stuck with it. I hope any of you could offer a different approach in order to get rid of this annoying problem.
    Any help would be highly appreciated. (Trust ME!!!)

    UPDATE: I just came back after a visit to the apple service provider here in New Delhi. They have replaced the logic board on my macbook pro and guess what? the situation is still the same. No difference what so ever as far as the screen resolution is concerned. I can still see those black bars in the exact same places i.e. the right hand side as well as on the top of the screen. Even the size of the black bars are still the same.
    I am so upset right now. After trying my best in order to solve this problem I went to the AASP with high hopes. I was very confident that after replacing the logic board this annoying problem would go away but unfortunately that's not the case. Even the Apple Engineer was clueless on how to solve this problem.
    I think I'll call apple care and speak to the customer relations regarding a replacement.
    If any of you can come up with a solution to this problem please let me know.
    I'm all ears!!!
