Macbook (1,83GHZ Duo 1GB RAM ...) + World of Warcraft

hi,
does anyone of you know if I m able to run World of Warcraft on an Macbook without graphic problems, or better said 'hardware lags'?
a PC haha, maybe a mac soon Windows XP Pro sometimes it *****

Welcome to the discussions!
There are plenty of people here that run WoW nicely on their MBs. I recommend at least 1GB of RAM for most but the lightest Mac users, so in that comfiguration it will work well.

Can I Install osx 10.6 if yes How?. I tried using my New imac's Install DVD 10.6.2, it say this version of osx cannot be installed on this mac
please tell which version of OSX 10.6 can be install in the above imac

First please don't post your serial number in a public. You should be able to install Mac OS X 10.6 on your system. The DVD you are using must be the original that came with the computer before it will work. What version of Mac OS X do you have on your system. I am thinking it is a higher version then 10.6.2.

Anyone install SL on Mini Core Solo 1.83Ghz with 1GB Ram?

Has anyone done this, how's it working out? Thanks.

There isn't actually a core solo 1.83 mini. The only core solo model was a 1.5, in the first generation of Intel-based minis in 2006.
If you mean a core duo 1.83, then the system certainly meets the minimum spec for Snow Leopard, so the main concern wouldn't be hardware related, but whether or not your software is fully compatible. If you give a run down of the applications you use, that might help to get you some direct assistance!

Ram limit in macbook pro core duo

hi
I was wondering what the limit of the macbook pro core duo is. I know it says 2 gb but has anyone tried a 2gb chip + 1gb chip? I also know the core2's can do 3gigs.
I have had laptops that thave worked with way more than the specs said. My pismo's limit according to apple was 512mb ram I have had 1GB in that for many years. I think the 512 mb chip was the larges one at the time the computer was released so thats what was reported. is it the same thing with the first generation macbook pro's?
thanks
t

According to Apple's specs the limit for the MBP CoreDuo is 2 GBs. The limit of the Core2Duo is 4 GBs although only 3 GBs is user accessible.
The spec limit for the Pismo is 1 GB (512 MB per slot.) When new models are released sometimes there isn't RAM available to suit the limit of the model, so Apple can only certify a max based on what's currently available. You will find this is true of many older Mac models such as the Pismo.

I have a MacBook Pro 13inch 2.4GHz (Intel Core 2 Duo, 4Gb RAM, 250Gb HDD, NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics, SD card slot, up to 10 hour battery life)bought in October 2010 in the UK. The charger has stopped working. Which model and voltage do I need please?

I have a MacBook Pro 13inch 2.4GHz (Intel Core 2 Duo, 4Gb RAM, 250Gb HDD, NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics, SD card slot, up to 10 hour battery life) bought in October 2010. The charger has been playing up for a while now - the light going out but coming back on when I move the cable a bit - faulty connection it seems. It has now stopped working at all.
Apple UK charge a whopping £65 for a replacement - and the reviews are AWFUL for it!
I need to know which one I need - 45w, 60w and 80w are listed - can someone tell me please? If I'm going to pay this price I want to make sure I get the right one!
Also, is a genuine Apple one available on Amazon UK, does anyone know please?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Meanwhile my battery is going down.....

Thanks for that wjosten. Much appreciated.
I've read here on Apple's site that the 85W version will work, as you say, and that it would run cooler with a 13" Macbook - I have a 13" MBP of course but assume this would be the same with mine. I wonder if running cooler is a good thing (it sounds as if it is) and it would be better for me to get the 85W version than the 60W one?
Then I have to decide whether to pay the (extortionate as it seems to me, though I may be wrong) £65 from Apple (bearing in mind the rotten reviews here of the Apple product), or risk a cheaper alternative from Amazon UK, at around £20 (also with various rotten reviews)... Any suggestions? Please? :-)

Macbook Pro Core Duo 2.16Ghz with 1GB+2GB memory module

Is it possible to install an 2gb modulle along with my 1gb module witch came standard with my macbook pro Core Duo 2.16Ghz?
Im thinking about the following modulle:
Kingston KTA-MB667/2G
(Any other suggestions?)
And just for my information is it possible to install 2x 2gb memory?
Thanks!

But i still have a few questions:
Is the 2gb modulle not supported or the total of 3gb
is not supported?
I want to know it absolutely 100% for sure becouse i
would love the 2gb addition. And i don't want a buy
something wrong :P
From what I have read in various forums a single 2GB module will work in the Core Duo machines. 3GB is not supported however. People who have tried adding 3GB (2GB +1GB) to a Core Duo report the computer would not boot.
I am not sure why you would want to use a single 2GB module though. Perhaps if you were wanting to upgrade to a Core 2 Duo later?
I would say if your going to try to use a single 2GB module understand the risks. i.e. I don't how much people actually tested for stability etc. other than to try it and say yeah it works. You do loose the dual-channel configuration for whatever that is worth.
I would make sure you purchase from a place that has a liberal return policy if your going to try it. Just in case your not happy with it.

Macbook pro turns off suddenly after the installing of a new 1Gb Ram

Hi everybody, ive just intalled today a new 1Gb RAM module from the apple store and now my macbook pro is 2Gb.
The thing is that today it have just turn off suddenly, loosing all my work, two times. It never happened before so i think that its just because of the RAM but, can this normally happens? Wat do you think i should do?
Thank u very much!

Sounds like you didn't install the RAM properly. Open back up, take the RAM out, carefully reseat it until you're sure it is all the way in, then put your computer back together and see if that solves the problem.

CI have a macbook 2.1 with 1GB of memory. What are my options for adding memory s I can upgrade to Lion? (I am running 10.5.8 now) and to icloud. I ve never been able to backup to idisk because of lack of memory also.

I have a macbook 2.1 with 1GB of memory. I have two issues- both related to lack of sufficient memory. Issue#1 is upgrade to LION requires more memory than I have and I d like to upgrade. Issue 2 is that when ever i try to backup to idisk I get a message telling me I need to remove some files from my start up disk to make room. I don t know what I can remove without creating problems. So I think I need to add memory. Is this possible?

Here are instructions on replacing RAM in a MacBook with a removable battery. http://homeoffice.consumerelectronicsnet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=44404

You can put two 2gb RAM sticks in your model 2,1 but it can only use 3,3gb. This is a hardware limitation and cannot be changed.

http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/faq/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-3-g b-memory-limitation-details.html
OWC tests have found that there is a slight speed increase with having two 2gb sticks in rather than one 1gb and one 2gb. Your model is in the gray lines at the bottom of the graph. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/Memory_Benchmark/Apple_MacBook/
You can upgrade to 10.6 with no problems. Any program that runs under 10.5 will run under10.6. You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/
To upgrade your iLife and iWork. If you only want iPhoto or other single apps from iLife '11 you can get them from the App Store after you've upgraded to 10.6.6. iPhoto, iMovie or Garage Band for $15 each and Pages, Keynote or Numbers from iWork '09 for $20 each.
You can order a Snow Leopard 10.6 install disk for $29 as long as you have at least1gb of RAM and 5gb of free space on your hard drive. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
Once you are at 10.6.8 you can buy Lion for $29 from the App Store if you have at least a model 2,1 MacBook. Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly. Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

23" Display + MacBook Pro Core Duo?

Just ******* after an 23" Apple Cimima Display (ACD). But wondering wether or not my laptop will be able to drive it properly.
I have a MacBook Pro 15.4" with a 2GHZ Core Duo Processor with 1GB of RAM and the ATI X1600 GPU with 128 MB of RAM. I'm a bit annoyed I opted for 'only' 128MB, 256MB would have really increased the shelf life of the computer.
When I play new games on the maximum resolution (1440 x 900) I can't have all the graphics options on other wise it goes a bit 'jumpy'. Does this mean that the even higher resolution on the 23" ACD will make it worse. Also I noticed Cover flow is a bit jumpy sometimes, is that because of my measly 128MB?
And does the ACD work well in Windows XP and or Vista.

i am running the MacBook Pro - Core Duo 2GHz with 23" Apple Cinema Display, and there are no issues running native resolution (1920x1400) with games like Warcraft III: Frozen Throne and World Of Warcraft. The book will handle it nicely... also do not get put-off by the v.ram being 128MB, is very unlikely you will be able to run the full video ram resource, unless you generate 3D animations, etc.

DDR II 800MHz in Macbook Core 2 Duo

Hi!
I've go Macbook Core 2 Duo with 1Gb of DDR 667MHz RAM. I want to upgrade RAM to 4Gb, but I can't find any RAM with 667MHZ (5300) speed, only 800 MHz (6400) modules are available. Will this work in Macbook?
P.S. I have PC based on the same CPU and Chipset and it works well with 800MHz modules, it just slows down memory speed to 667MHz.

Check out OWC 667Mhz RAM
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/
You should check the specific MacBook model you have and use that to select the correct memory.

Why does my Macbook Core 2 Duo 13" keep shutting itself off and/or repetively rebooting on its own?

My Macbook Core 2 Duo 13" won't stay on for any significant time anymore. When it does, it seems that the slightest movement, or pressing a key will shut it down or it just shuts down on its own. Or it reboots repetitively after chiming. Or it remains on as it is doing now for the last 30 minutes, long enough to see if it needed a firmware update. It's never on long enough to really use it anymore.
When there is no image on the screen, I often can hear the fan or drive running quietly in the background. I can turn it off by powering down with the button. Without the power cord, it will eventually drain the battery if I don't force shut it down.
I have verified that the hard drive is OK by removing it and mounting it externally.
I have been unable to do a hard system reboot (hold down powerbutton until system starts and continue to hold until tone) - no tone, just keeps rebooting.
When it stayed on long enough, I tried to install the firmware 1.1 update. Message was that it didn't need it.
I have tried removing one RAM card at a time ( it has 1GB + 512Mb). Haven't really noticed any change. "POST" message is OK when it starts
Any ideas? I've looked at all the "usual suspects". Thanks!
