MPB Beeps but RAM is 100% good

Hi guys,
I've got the following issue with installing new RAM.
First: this is my MBP
As stated on the Apple Support website the machine can handle 8 GB.
I have bought:  Corsair SODIMM, 8GB (2x4GB), DDR3 1066MHz
But now the fun starts: When I install both cards, my MBP does not boot and starts beeping, suggesting that the RAM is bad. However, when I instal only one card (does not matters which slot I use) it works fine. I tried the same with the MBP of a friend (15" mid 2010) and the same issue occurred.
I can't work out what is wrong due to the fact that my MBP should be able to handle 8GB, but it seems that it can't?
Could somebody please help me. Thanks!

@ OGELTHORPE
- The images should work now. Do you see them? I can see them now.
- Yes, tried every possible option. But when both installed it does not run, when one installed it does.
- What kind of RAM are you using for your MBP?
@ Kappy
Assuming that the RAM is not suitable for my MBP, it should also not run when only one card is installed right?

    Any other suggestions out there folks?

    On Oracle Metalink site, there are many documents which says that Oracle 32 bit software works on 32 bits OS and 64 bits software works on 64 bits OS. Official support is only in those combination....
    So there is no good way to help you in your case-XE is 32 bit application with hard codded compiled libraries which most of them would not work on 64 bit OS.

  • Please a simple problem but I don't know how to solve it. After installing 16 gb of ram all is good but when I turn on the computer it is a window signaling that all is correct. How is possible to delete once and for all that window? Thank you

    Well then maybe you could take a screenshot because the appearance of such a window is news to me.
    Also post your OS X version and what model Mac you have. The more detail, the better. Thanks.
    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse or trackpad. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
    Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

  • PDF Export Looks Good at 150% Zoom, but Bad on 100%

    Hi,
    I'm extremely new to InDesign, and am trying to make a colourful resume/portfolio design using ID, but am running into an issue already with exporting via PDF.
    The original issue was that the logo (which has my name and occupation(s)) were coming out SUPER blurry as a PSD I "placed" in the ID document (I tried PNG and Photoshop PDF as well, to no improvement).  After a lot of struggling with export options, I went back to PhotoShop and changed the PSD from 72 ppi to 300 ppi, which increased the dimensions of the PSD but improved the quality significantly. 
    However, now I find that the PDF file looks great in Acrobat on larger zooms (150% and 200%), but bad on 100% (where it seems like it's being "downscaled," so the smaller text looks awfully compressed).  I've experimented with ppi's in between (240, 180, etc), but it ends up becoming "blurry" at 100%, like the 72 ppi setting.
    Any ideas on how I can fix this so the logo looks crisp at 100% on a PDF export?
    Thanks,
    RTL

    Hi Willi,
    I tried a PNG once earlier (when I was still trying to fix the 72 ppi logo), but since it had no improvement, I abandoned the PNG way before (it's a PSD in those screenshots above).
    The PSD is still layered in Photoshop.  I took your advice and imported it into Illustrator, and saved as an AI file, and then placed that in the ID, but it wasn't an improvement.  I notice that everything (including text I wrote in ID) looks far superior on 150% zoom in Acrobat, and perfect on 200%, but 100% seems to downscale all of the content (except the background).
    Thanks!   

  • Will the new Crucial PC4000 Ballistix RAM be a good choice for the A64 3400+ system?

    good news that crucial released some enthusiast ram with very good pricing compared to OCZ.
    http://www.crucial.com/ballistix/
    If i get the PC4000 Ballistix ram from crucial, will it provide me with a good 1:1 overclocking on my system? i am worried that if i get the 2.2.2.6 PC3200 Crucial, it will hit a headroom too soon. i want to achieve a 250Mhz X 10 1:1 OC
    please advice..thanks

    I was looking at that instead of OCZ3700EB CL 3-3-2-8 which is now in short supply but found the attached document which states that the timings for the PC4000 are CL2.5-4-4-8 which may give a performance hit.
    http://news.designtechnica.com/article4685.html
    I wonder if it would be possible to tighten up the timings to nearer the PC3200 CL2-2-2-6 values at PC3500 speeds.

    Before you have another accident:
    Buy a UPS of good quality and sufficient to your needs.
    I would have to assume that the drives were connected to a PCI PATA card, hopefully. Otherwise, well RAID and having drives on the same bus (master and slave).
    And no backup, none at all...
    Get your hands on a G4.
    Data Rescue 3 from Prosoft maybe.
    If they were SATA and running on PCI SATA controller, very popular and common really in G4s, more options would be open.

  • My caller id is not working on iphone 5 - it beeps but doesn't show who is calling or let me click over

    I have recently had my iphone 5 not show who is calling on call waiting.  The phone beeps but doesn't show the number / per son that is calling, won't let me click over and won't show who it was in my call history.  Help very annoying.

    1st go into your settings then tap phone to see if call waiting is turned on or off. If call waiting isOFF turn it ON. You can use also Apple article HT 4515. I would contact my wireless carrier reguarding the caller id not showing up and also with help reguarding your call waiting as well
    Hope this helps

    My ipad2 is not responding..I want to restart it but i can get nothing but a black screen with only the apple logo and a small gear icon. It occasionally beeps but no other response.  Any ideas as to what may be wrong and what I can do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPad fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Photos ap on mac will not email. shows "more" for extensions which has Outlook checked but does me no good

    Why will new Photos ap on mac not email? No "email" pulldown  -shows "more" for extensions which has Outlook checked but does me no good.

    I am struggling with the same problem. I have two HP 4100dtn printers on ethernet. Each has a manually assigned IP address. I can set up the printer(s) just fine in the Print & Fax Preference and Snow Leopard finds the printer just fine when I enter the IP address and chooses the correct HP Driver.
    When I try to print, my print job appears in the queue as expected, than an error appears that something about a "bad command". Sorry, I'm home right now and don't have direct access to the printer so I can't give you the precise language of the message, but the gist of the message is that the system tried to connect to the printer to send the print data but the printer does not know how to respond to the command that was sent.
    It's as if the firmware in the 4100 just doesn't have something in it's lexicon that Snow Leopard needs. The HP web site is no help. One page I found says the printer is supported (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&obje ctID=c01664444&jumpid=regR1002USEN ) and another page I found says that it is not supported (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&obje ctID=c01879014&jumpid=regR1002USEN). The HP on line chat won't let me log in and hold a chat with HP unless I know the Serial Number of the printer, which I don't have here at home.
    More to follow tomorrow.
    Anyone have any ideas?
