My laptop has 1g ram i need to know how much ram this computer will handle, i have a dv6426us

I'm needing to upgrade my RAM I have a total of 1G now, I need to know what this particular laptop will handle. The OS is Vista Home Premium and it takes as much as 2 hrs to reboot sometimes
I have a Pavillion DV6426US Entertainment Wide Screen
Thanks for any help that you can provide

Hi:
You can install 2 x 2 GB of PC2-5300 memory (total of 4 GB), if you have BIOS version F.25 or newer installed in your notebook.
Maxing out the memory should help the performance, but you should look into removing any unnecessary software and stop any unnecessary programs from running at startup.

I need to know how much longer my iMac will be good for

Hi Everyone... need some help if you have some time please..... Thanks in advance!
I bought this used iMac in 2010 and it's been great except that I can't upgrade anymore on it. I have snow leopard and I was told my Apple this is the last upgrade for this computer.
That worries me because my internet browsers will eventually stop working when more they upgrade and my computer is still runing on Snow Leopard.
Can anyone tell me how much longer I'll be able to keep this Mac before I have to replace it? It still works perfectly.
Here is some of info:

Thanks for responding! so helpful! I was told by apple reps I can't upgrade to Lion and you stated the same thing but then you said if I 'move to lion 10.7' I would be able to?
My firefox doesn't work very well on this computer it's really slow and doesn't load sometimes. and If I use tumblr it's even worse. I can't even scroll.
My main concern is the browser upgrades. I want to make sure this computer can still be upgraded (so I can use netflix for at least another year or 2 etc etc)
Lion is 10.7, Mountain Lion is 10.8.
You should max out your RAM, but the Firefox issue may or may not be RAM related. If you restart and open no other applications but Firefox, do you still experience problems? If you don't, then it's most likely RAM related.
It may be an Add-on responsible for the slow loading. Quit Firefox then reopen it in safe mode, by holding down Option(alt). This will disable all Add-ons. If it appears to work better there, then you need to test by disabling each Add-on one by one to see which is the culprit.
It may also be a corrupted Profile in your Firefox folder. Option-drag the entire Firefox Folder located in your user Library>Application Support. This will make a backup, which you can restore later. You will know it's copying when you see a small circle with a plus sign inside. Don't do this if that doesn't appear. There is a more elegant way to do this, but it may be trickier to get going than what I have suggested.
Next, get a new Firefox application and install that. Doing this will create a new Firefox folder and Profile in that location. See how that one behaves. If it's better, then post back and I can tell you how to migrate things over from the old Profile. If it isn't, then just return the original Firefox folder to that location and allow it to replace the new one.

I received LR 5 for Christmas but have not downloaded it yet on my computer. I have had LR 3 for about 4 years. I am due to buy a new computer soon but need to know how many licenses/downloads I will get before downloading LR 5 on my current computer. I may also purchase a laptop in the next year so that would require 3 licenses altogether (current iMac, future iMac, future macbook).

You have one license.
You can download and install it on an infinite number of computers, as long as it is only installed on two of your computers at any one time, and in use on only one computer at any given time.
So in your case, current iMac, that's would mean its installed on one computer, no problem. Future iMac and future MacBook ... so if you uninstall from current iMac and install on Future iMac and future MacBook, it's now installed on two computers at a time, no problem, as long as you're not using Lightroom on both simultaneously. And if after that, you got two new computers and uninstalled Lightroom from the previous two, you're still good, it's only installed on two computers at any one time.

The page that you’ve posted from has instructions for how to reset them i.e. if you have a rescue email address set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 half-way down that page should let you reset them.
If you don't have a rescue email address then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

I need to know how to authorize my computer

I have a Windows 8 computer and need to know how to authorize the computer for Itunes

There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

Click here and find your model. The entry will contain a link to where compatible RAM can be found, together with its type. You can do this on your own if you're comfortable.

Need to know how to update my iphone 4 to ios5 have downloaded the update already

I have tried to update my iphone with itunes but when it gets to the end of the down load the message I get is server session timed out
so iave downloaded the the update in safari and need to know how to update from there

What itunes is asking is would you like to import the files and settings of your ipod to your iphone? It'll import things like contacts, calendar, mail, apps with app data. If you want your phone set up just like your ipod then use that option. Otherwise pick "set up as a new device" and it'll allow you to keep the two seperate and you will be able to sync them both to your itunes independently of each other.
