My early (white plastic) 2006 imac freezes. I'm running Snow Leopard and have formatted and reinstalled the software 3 or 4 times. Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac4,1
Processor Name: Intel Core Duo
Processor Speed: 2 GHz
Until I installed the SMC FanControl application my screen would "break up" into strange patterns and then would eventually freeze. Please help.
If you are trying to upgrade using a gray-faced OS X disk from another system, that won't work, as those disks are locked to the system types they are delivered with. You'll need to drop the $29 on a retail copy of Snow Leopard, which is available from the Apple online store. Note Snow Leopard requires 1GB minimum, and you may want at least 2GB for better performance.

Apple keep telling me I need to update to icloud but I'm not sure if Lion will work on my Mac. I've upgraded to snow leopard which seems to have knackered my .me or .mac account (whatever it's called now), so I don't seem to have any option but to upgrade to Lion if I every want to see my emails again.
Apple say I must have a Intel Core 2 processor for Lion to work...... at least I think that's what they say.
I have a mac book pro, 2006 with an 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo processor, can I update to Lion?Lion System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
If you have a Core Duo model then you cannot upgrade to Lion. You can upgrade to Snow Leopard, but iCloud is not available for Snow Leopard.
Open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. Look for the Model ID in the displayed information. If you have a MacBookPro 2,1 or later then you have a Core 2 Duo model and can upgrade to Lion. -
Can I Upgrade my computer to Lion. I have a 2 GHz Intel Core Duo Processor. My computer is 6 years old. Right now I have Snow Leopard.
I have an old iMac about that age that I upgraded to Lion to test my 3rd party applications for compatibility. It upgraded quite simply. Please backup or save all your info/etc to an external CD/DVD/Hard drive, then try to run the installer. The Lion installer will analize your Mac for compatibility before it does anything, and will alert you to it's decisision. My 17" iMac is also 2 GHZ Intel core duo. Surprisingly for many of the things I use it for it works as good as my multi thousand dollar MacPro workstation. Best of luck. But Lion isn't compatible with many third party applications and drivers for printers; scanners; etc.

I have a macbook pro with a 2.16 GHz Intel core Duo processor. Can I install the iOS 5 software
I have a macbook pro with a 2.16 Ghz Intel core Duo processor. Can I install the iOS 5 software?
iOS 5 is for iDevices, not OS X. Your iDevice would only require 10.5.8 or later. If you have a Mac with a Core Duo processor then you cannot install Lion but you can install Snow Leopard provided you have at least 1 GB of RAM installed.

Can I download InDesign on my Mac OS 10.6.8 & 2.4 GHz Intel Core duo processor?
Can I download InDesign on my Mac OS 10.6.8 & 2.4 GHz Intel Core duo processor?
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. -
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.

My iMac has an Intel Core Duo processor, what can be done to upgrade to Lion?
my IMac has an Intel Core Duo processor. What can be done it to allow me to upgrade to Lion?
Got 2GB of RAM and 7GB of disk space as well?
Got current BACKUPs in case something goes horribly wrong?
If so, upgrade/update to 10.6.6 or later and The App Store icon appears. For US$29.99, you can download Lion.
If you fear you will need a DVD of it, you must make one after downloading and BEFORE you install, as the image is consumed during the Install, and not available afterward. -
I have a Mac mini OS X 10.4.11, intel core duo processor (not core 2 duo), with 512 mb and 1.83 GHz processor. I only have version 9.0.3 of iTunes because it hasn't let me go higher, which I believe is because of the operating system. I want to get my purchased music from the Mac mini to a different computer (that has the latest version of iTunes) and also my iPad. The Mac mini does not meet the requirements listed to simply upgrade to snow leopard or lion. As far as I can tell. Forgive me if I am lacking here...this is new to me. What can I do to get the music transferred. I have invested alot of money over the past few years on all this music that I should be able to transfer. Thank you in advance if you can help me.
If you want to sync it to the iPad from that Mac, you need to upgrade it to at least 10.5.8.
If you want to copy the music to another Mac, you don't. Move the iTunes folder of the item in the Finder's sidebar over as you would any other folder. If you put it somewhere other than the Music folder, launch iTunes with the Option key held down and point it to that location.

Can I upgrade to an Intel core 2 Duo processor from my Intel core duo processor ? If so, what all must be replaced. imac

Lion OS to ever support the older Intel Core Duo processors?
Does Apple Lion OS have any intention of supporting the older Intel Core Duo processors? If not, then doesn't that mean there's a lot of Mac's that are going to be left behind? Does Apple plan to do anything else for these Mac's?
Intel Core Duos are older machines - the last one was discontinued in September 2006 (if I remember correctly); that means the newest of them is about 5 1/2 years old - a lifetime for electronics.
As for Apple having any plans for these older machines: first, we are not allowed to speculate here, but I can't see anyone supporting or doing anything for a computer that age. -
Hey guys, please help me out. I am an owner of a MacBook Pro with software 10.6.8 and I have a 2 GHz intel core duo processor, and I was wondering, if it is possible for me to upgrade to an i5 intel core processor, so I can install mavericks to my MacBook Pro.
There is no way to plug in a different processor on your older MacBook. Processors have been soldered in for quite a long time.
The only known method is to convert your MacBook to Cash (by selling it) and use the cash to buy a MacBook that better meets your needs. -
Can anyone provide accurate info on why after 1 yr, ( just after guarantee period expiry) the DVD player on our I mac running Intel core duo processor with OS 10.6.8 refuses to run DVDs?
CDs run without problem and until recently the DVD we have (all original no pirated copies) ran; we have used a CD cleaner disc to no avail.Welcome to the Apple boards:
I suggest an erase and install and use your backup for any important files you have.
Did you perform a disk check/repair and permissions repair and a PRAM zap before updating? While not required, they are usually necessary to avoid issues.
There are so many reasons for a bad install, that it is impossible to list them all.
Out-of-date software, drivers, etc, haxies, and other software can cause problems.
My three updates were without incident, so it is possible for a perfect update, but unless you supply us with details about your previous system, programs, apps, drivers, etc., it is not possible to figure out what happened.
Again, whenever installing an update to an OS, a clone or other full backup is absolutely necessary, as reading the posts on this board indicate. -
I have a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard OS 10.6.8 but want to upgrade to Lion. My Mac that has an Intel Core Duo Processor (I know really outdated huh) but to upgrade to Lion OS X I need an Intel Core2 Duo. Can I upgrade or will it mess it up?
It actually shouldn't allow you to upgrade. Your configuration should be detected and then it should reject your attempt to upgrade.

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?
