thank you i can buy at apple store correct
Your computer sounds like it's a few years old, Apple would NOT stock RAM for it. I'd recommend OWC (www.macsales.com) or Crucial. Both are reputable, have good service and very competitive prices. OWC has great support, you can do an online chat with them and they can answer any questions you may have.

    Hi trying to set up new Time Capsule, it says I need a newer version of Airport Utility, how do I get this?

    You need to be running at least the Lion (10.7.5) operating system or higher on your Mac, or using an iPhone or iPad with AirPort Utility installed on the device to set up the Time Capsule.
    Check the System Requirements for the Time Capsule to confirm.
    Setup and Administration
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6 or later and AirPort Utility 1.3
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and AirPort Utility 6.3 or higher

    how do i get more memory on my mac book air? is says that i can add 2 more gig ??? or wat files can i delete

    Macbook Air memory is soldered to the logicboard.
    You can only get 4GB or 8GB (2012 Models) in the Air when you order it that way.  Otherwise, you're stuck with 2GB.
    Unless you're talking about hard drive space - then it is upgradeable - click HERE to see which one corresponds to your model.

  • TS1544 I am the administrator of my MacBook Pro, which I share with my kids. One of them forgot his password, so as the admin I changed it for his account, but  when I try to see his account, it says I need to provide the keychain password. How can i get

    I am the administrator of my MacBook Pro, which I share with my kids. One of them forgot his password, so as the admin I changed it for his account, but  when I try to see his account, it says I need to provide the keychain password. How can i get it? I have no idea how to sort this out...

    First, make sure caps lock is not on.
    You must back up all data before continuing, unless you've already done so. If you need to back up but can't log in, ask for instructions.
    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
    Otherwise*, boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but your Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead the instructions on this page:
    If you forget the password and FileVault is on

    After it restores it will walk through a setup.
    It will ask you if you want to setup as a new device, from an iCloud backup or from an iTunes backup. Choose iCloud backup and then it will ask you to sign in to your iCloud account. It will restore and reboot. The you will be good.

  • How do I get more memory for my Macbook Pro Spring 2010 13-inch with 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo?

    How do I get more memory for my Macbook Pro spring 2010 13-inch with 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. Apple says no memory currently available for that model. I have 4 GB memory and 3.99 used. Help!

    Now I'm confused. This is the one Crucial told me to get:
    CT3309356 - 4GB DDR3 PC3-8500 Unbuffered NON-ECC 1.35V 512Meg x 64
    $45.99
    Also what do you mean that actual memory is 16GB but with Apple it's 8?
    When I go to the "About this Mac" it says Memory 4G 1067 MHz DDR3, then when I go to System Report it says
     Memory Slot
    Bank 0/ DIMM0 2G DDR3 1067 MHZ OK
    Bank 1/ DIMM0 2G DDR3 1067 MHZ OK
    Sorry I'm clueless. Just don't want to buy something that messes up my machine more than it already is.
    The Crucial site appears to have recommended the correct spec 4gB RAM stick for your model. Please note that you will need to remove the existing sticks of RAM to install new, so you will need 2x4gB to get to 8gB.
    When your model of computer was designed/built, it was tested with readily available 2x4gB (8gB). After release RAM retailers have tested it with higher amounts, and Apple didn't update their quoted specs.

  • How do i get more memory installed on my macbook air

    How do i get more memory installed on my macbook air

    If you are referring to RAM, the Air's RAM is not an upgradeable component. The RAM memory is soldered to the main board, and there are no expansion slots.
    It is the price Air owners pay for miniaturization. Every Air is manufactured with all the memory it will ever have. Shop wisely.
    It is technically possible to upgrade the SSD storage though, but will probably void any warranty.

  • How do i get more memory for my macbook pro?

    I've been getting messages that my start up disk is almost full.  What should I do?

    you can first delete cache files and log files and see how much you have left.
    try downloading CCleaner from the appstore and install it and run it....See how much disk space you have left after the clean up.
    There are a lot more powerful disk cleaners out there.  But for basic cleaning, the is one of the good ones.
    good luck....
    Note: if that doesn't help, then you might have to get a new hard drive for your MB.  You can get that here:

  • HT4623 my phone says i need storage space for the new upgrade, how do I get it?

    help!

    It's talking about iTunes. The program that runs on your computer. Not iOS, the operating system on your phone.
    On your computer, go to http://www.apple.com/itunes
    Download and install version 10.7. It is required to sync with iOS 6.

  • I bought my 20" iMac in Nov of 2007 and when I try to purchase the upgrade for lion I'm told I need 2GB of memory and I only have 1GB.  How can I get more?  I am currently running snow leopard

    Trying to upgrade to Lion on my 20" iMac that I bought in Nov. 2007.  Currently I'm running on MAC OS X version 10.6.8.  When I tried to buy the upgrade I got a response that Lion requires 2 GB of memory and I only have 1 GB.  How can I get more memory and will my computer be compatible with Lion when I do get more memory?

    Yes you can install more RAM. Up to 6 GBs. Two - 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMMs. For the maximum use one 4 GB and one 2 GB. Otherwise install a pair of 2 GB modules for a total of 4 GBs.
    You can purchase suitable RAM at DataMem or OWC. OWC also has video tutorials on installation.
