MB mid 07 2,1 core 2 duo, 2g memory, plenty free space....

Anyone else with Mac like mine try upgrading to 10.8.4? Any lagging? Noticeable absence of features? I have to spend 20 on Lion or Mountain lion either way.... Is it worth it?

It sounds like you are talking about this MacBook: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP18
That computer does not support Mountain Lion, but you can install Lion. 2 GB is the minimum amount of RAM required for Lion. You can actually install up to 4 GB of RAM in your MacBook, but it will only recognize 3 GB.

I highly recommend maxing out the RAM for maximum performance.
NOTE: The only way to purchase Lion currently is to contact Apple directly: http://www.apple.com/support/contact

Macbook pro mid 2006 - how can I install new OS ? I cannot update the 10.6.8 version and new software doesn't work.

My BlackBerry z10 having flash memory problem, free space memory reducing automatically,

After I wipe out the device, it shows 4.4gb used out of 16gb as "other data", after that memory constantly increase as used space in other data, I never update my device it is 10.1.0, what should I do

That is the setting on the camera. FCE is set to AIC AVCHD 1440 60i as well at 29.97 frames/sec.
So they do match.

My card media is all the same. It is what I always record in.
I changed the Matric to plain stereo, and it logged the first two 7 second clips. Then froze on the 57 second clip. I opened in the log/transfer preview and played it at it froze after 20 seconds of playback. Restarted the replay again and after it would play it all, then put the clip in the que and it transfered in. It is like there is not enough buffer to hold all the video in the little clip?

Mid-2009 MBP, 2.8Ghz Core 2 Duo, 4GB memory, NVIDIA GeForce 9600 512 MB can't run Windows 8?

I have a 17" mid-2009 MacBook Pro with a 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB memory, NVIDIA GeForce 9600M
GT 512MB. Recently upgraded to OS X MAvericks 10.9.4. I wish to run 3DS MAx Design using Boot CAmp.
The Boot Camp Assistant, downloading the Windows installers says my system can only run Windows 7. [The newly-opened Windows 8.1 disc is right here.] Can this be right? Might you please identify the weak point? Should I upgrade? Is the memory the reason? Is the assistant wrong? What should I do.
Using 3ds max, would it be wise to upgrade the memory in any case. When the correct Windows softyware is determined and installed, how large should I set the partition. Thank you for helping me.

Thanks, Kappy. Please, I'd read those system requirements before; I still don't understand where my system falls short. Both 7 and 8 stipulate a 1GHz processor. Graphics card I don't know the difference. So it's memory- I have insufficient accesible memory? If my purpose is to manipulate highly featured images, should I upgrade memory in any case. Does it make much difference whether it's 7 or 8? Some places I know my footing. Here, not. Step by step. Thanks!

Imac 20'' Core Duo memory specs

Hey,
im thinking to expand my imac's total 1gb ram
and im really confused from what i've read about the memory amount a ram module
should have.(some say it can be expanded to 4gb(3gb used))
I know for a fact that it can be expanded to a sum of 2gb (2x1gb).
Is there a way to find out?
I bought my imac on 06/2006 but i cant be sure which imac is(early or mid 2006) as im not living in the states or in any other technologically "advanced" country.Forgot to mention that the model is imac 20'' intel core duo
cheers.

64 bit and the iMac 24", 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB memory

Hello,
I am confused about the whole 32 bit 64 bit situation
I have installed Snow leopard on my new iMac 24", 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB memory.
Can this machine run 64bit? I thought it was a 32 bit machine.
Any clarification would be greatly appreciated.

Most Apple application run in 64 bit mode no matter what. Third party apps will if they are designed to. The unix kernel defaults to 32 bit mode for compatibility reasons. You can switch it to 64 if you like. I tried it and lost my Kensington mouse driver. Switching back to 32 brought it back. There is very little reason a normal user would need to run in 64 bit mode... but dangit I WANT to! Sadly my extra mouse buttons are more important...

Intel Mac Mini Core Duo Midi USB Issues

Is anyone else having issues getting Midi devices to work with the Intel Mac Mini's? I have several Midi devices that are't working correctly event though I have installed the newest drivers.
Currently I am having issues with a M-Audio Midisport 2x2 USB adapter. I loaded the newest drivers (ver 3.2.2) which are supposed to be universal binary to support the Intel Macs. When I connect the Midisport 2x2 to the Mac Mini I can not get it to receive Midi Output from the Mac.
When I look in the Midi control pannel I can see that the Midisport has been installed, but all options to select it are greyed out. Also when I try to select it as the input or output there is NO option to select the Midisport from the pull down menu. It only shows the "Built-in Midi" as and option.
The Midisport works fine on other non-Intel Macs. Please advise.
Thanks!
Mac Mini Intel Duo Core 1.66Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.7)

It seems like the mini is doing alright so far. I think maybe the full erase solved whatever issue it was having. I also got my Core Duo Mini yesterday in the mail and it's performing like a champ. Definitely a nice machine.
I'll close my question for now, since the Core Solo Mini seems alright. But, as a warning don't get on Front Row's bad side. I tried force quitting it because it was taking too long to load the videos folder and then tried shutting down from a terminal and ended up having to turn the machine off.

According to the Lion webpage, you would need to add more RAM to your computer and check to make sure you have about 7GB of free hard drive space.

21.5" 2.4 ghz Intel core duo with 4 GB memory iMac w/ OS X 10.5.8

my 2008 21.5" 2.4 ghz Intel core duo with 4 GB memory iMac is running OS X 10.5.8 and has recently started over heating and locking up .... even with applications that it has never had problems with before .... I don't think it's capable of being upgraded any further, right? can I upgrade the graphics card or is that even worth it?

Your tems are fine, nothing at all to worry about. One thing you can do is shut down the computer, remove the RAM plate cover on the bottom and vacuum out the air intake. As for the spinning beach balls that isn't a freeze it means a process is busy. You can run Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) and when you begin getting SBBOD look in AM and see if you see any processes using a large %CPU and also click the System Memory tab and look to see how much FREE RAM is available at that point in time. As a general rule of thumb OS X likes to have 500MB or more of FREE RAM, if you see it's at or below 500MB then a RAM upgrade is needed or you need to reduce the amount of open windows. The graphic will look similar to:
Also I'd strongly recommend carefully reading the XLab's Spinning Beach Ball of Death article. It's an excellent guide on how to trouble shoot spinning beach ball issues.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You can upgrade to Mac OS X Snow Leopard, and then, you should be able to use OS X Lion.
First, buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard Then, make a backup of your data, insert the Snow Leopard disc and upgrade to Snow Leopard.
The disc will install Mac OS X 10.6.3, so open  > Software Update to install 10.6.8, the most recent Snow Leopard version.
See if your Mac is supported > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4949 If you see that it's compatible, call Apple to buy OS X Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 Also, check if your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com

Core Duo memory limit?

As far as I'm aware, my MBP Core Duo has a limit of 2GB. It has 1GB pre-installed, so is the most I can buy 1GB extra? If this is true, how come on the apple website, I gives me the option to buy a 2GB stick, which would mean I'd have 3GB... And the 2GB stick they offer is 2X1, but I'm pretty sure there is only 1 free expansion slot, so I'd have 3 sticks of memory - the 1 pre-installed and the 2 I'd buy... I feel like I'm in grade school, but I'm a little confused. Can someone please explain what I should do. Thanks.

The Core Duo models only support 2 GBs. There is no option to purchase a 2 GB module for a Core Duo - only for Core 2 Duos. The 2 GB set consists of two 1 GB modules that replace the two 512 MB modules that were originally installed in the Core Duos.

I am running 10.6.8 but can't upgrade to Lion. 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo processor 1.83 GB memory. What should I do?

My MacBook software is 10.6.8 but I can't upgrade to Lion. 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo with 2GB memory. What to do?

Lion/101.7 System requirements
    •    x86-64 processor (Macs with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, or Xeon processor.)
    •    At least 2GB of memory, (I say 4GB)
    •    Latest version of Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8), with the Mac App Store installed
    •    At least 4GB of disk space for downloading, (I say 40GB at least)
Like Snow Leopard, Lion does not support PowerPC-based Macs (e.g., Power Macs, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs (G3-G5), eMacs).
Lion also does not support 32-bit Intel Core Duo or Core Solo based Macs. Rosetta is no longer available in Lion, which means Lion no longer supports PowerPC applications.

Will increasing the memory from 4Gb to 8Gb make a big difference to the speed of my Intel Core Duo 2 Mac mini?

Will increasing the memory from 4Gb to 8Gb make a big difference to the speed of my Intel Core Duo 2 Mac mini?

Well, technically no, CPU will remain the same speed. But having 8 gig will give you some room for memory hungry apps and run better with multiple apps.
Adding a SSD drive will give a second life to your macmini. I did mine a few weeks ago (240 gb SSD ) and also went from 2 to 4 gig ram. It's like having a new computer!
Good luck!

Can I upgrade my 2006 iMac 4,1 with Intel Core Duo w/1/5GB memory, 667GHz Bus Speed, 2GHz Processor Speed to the newer OS systems?
I have been told my machine is now "vintage or obsolete" and can't be upgraded to the newest OS software.

The maximum OS for that iMac is 10.6.8.
