Purchase RAM for Macbook Pro  2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Mid-2009

Hello,
I need to upgrade the current memory(2 GB) of my Macbook pro (2.26GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Mid-2009) model..Can someone please suggest where I could purchase and what is the maximum and optimal that I could buy.
Also I reside in India, so should I get it online or from the apple store which is like 100 km (nearest) from my place .
Thanks
Shubham

You can buy them oniine if you wish to do so.  Buying it from Apple is a good idea but would cost more, and since it's 100km away, after your gas = more money.
The maximum you can install is 8GB.  Your RAM specs are 1333MHz - DDR3 - 204PIN SODIMM.
Check here for current prices online and compare to the price Apple sells them in your area.
If you're not in a big rush - then buying online is a good idea.
Good luck

  • Upgrading of Ram for Macbook Pro 15" 2.16GHz core duo

    hi,
    anyone here could enlighten me whether i could upgrade my current MBP's Ram from 2 GB to 3 or 4GB? (20pin DDR2)
    will there be any issue to my system if i also upgrade my internal Hardisk which is currently a SATA 100GB 7200rpm to maybe a SATA 300GB?

    We would have to know which MacBook Pro you have. The most current versions support up to 4GB. The previous Core 2 Duos support up to 3GB. The original Core Duos support up to 2GB.
    So far as upgrading your drive. The drive is not considered user replaceable. If you damage something while upgrading your drive, it will not be covered under your warranty (provided your warranty is still in effect). Also... if something fails down the road that requires you send it back to Apple... and they realize you have installed a new drive, there is a chance they may not cover it under warranty either... as there would be no way to tell that the upgrade you had done did not cause a problem that just took some time to show up.

  • Since my macbook pro is an intel core duo but not a core 2 duo, I cannot upgrade to Yosemite.  So... what OS X can I upgrade to with this computer?

    Since my macbook pro is an intel core duo but not a core 2 duo, I cannot upgrade to Yosemite.  So... what OS X can I upgrade to with this computer? Thanks for the input.

    Intel Core Duo is a 32-bit processor, so the latest Mac OS X version you can install is Mac OS X Snow Leopard -> http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    You are running Mac OS X 10.6.8, so you are already running the most recent Mac OS X version for your computer.

  • 802.11n Enabler Doesn't work with 17" MacBook Pro (2.16) Intel Core Duo

    While I would believe that the computer does meet the requirements and that it does have the extreme card and after following the instructions -- checking the network utility ap, etc. It is very strange that you get a "Alert: Your computer does not meet the hardware requirements for this update." So you don't think that I am a fool, I did check the Network Utility and there is no "n" so it was never updated.
    Is there any way to do this manually?
    Thanks in advance.

    The Core Duo machines don't have the newer Extreme card whose chipset supports 802.11n.
    You can do some potentially warranty-voiding surgery, however, to replace the MBP's stock card with the Mac Pro Airport Extreme Upgrade card, which supports 802.11n and is plug-compatible with the MBP's stock card. It's available for $49 from places like PowerMax and Small Dog.

  • Stock RAM Configuration for 15" MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

    Hello,
    I have a new 15" MacBook Pro 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo on it's way to me and I need to order a RAM upgrade. I know the specifications of what I need, but am getting conflicting information from the retailer on how the stock models are configured for RAM. The total amount is 2GHz. Does anyone know if this amount is provided by one or two RAM modules?

    You'll find the RAM is in a 2 x 1GB configuration. Unfortunately they both need to come out for you to upgrade to 4GB RAM in a 2 x 2GB configuration. Still cheaper than going with Apple which makes it a little softer.

  • What's the maximum memory ram for Macbook Pro?

    Hello,
    May I know what's the maximum memory ram capacity for Macbook Pro?
    I am having Macbook Pro - 2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Thank you!
    Alvin

    Hate to resurrect a dead horse but....I was looking in the instructions for memory upgrades and the instructions specified that the computer will only recognize 3 gigs. Will that still be in effect if I upgrade to Snow Leopard when it becomes available? Or do I need to save my pennies for a Mac Pro? What I am getting at is: is the reason for the RAM cap due to software issues, 64 bit not being native, different version of leopard used on notebooks, or is it due to hardware issues.

    3GB. You can install 4GB. The computer will only utilize approximately 3.3GB though.

  • MAXIMUM RAM for MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo Mid 2010

    What is the MAXIMUM RAM for MacBook Pro, 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Mid 2010 - 24MC374LL/A, running OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)?
    I tried to search for this but was unable to find anything.
    Apple Specs say 8GB, but I was just told by someone I THINK would know, that you can actually go up to 16GB.
    This would be an enormous improvement to my workflow if true.
    Anyone out there know for certain?
    Making sure before I buy (or NOT!)
    Thanks.

    I just found this post and I realize this is a late response but maybe it will help others.
    Based on recent circumstances I just happened to have two 8GB DDR3 modules collecting dust. Having an old trusty MacMini as my media center, server among other things and whatnot, I was curious if I could bump this little thing to 16GB. In doing so I found this post and verified with OWC.
    End result:
    Booted with no issues, and is running nice and smooth. Should be noted that just adding 16GB of RAM to a Core 2 Duo will not make the machine lightning fast or become some amazing computing platform. It will just make the box run a bit quicker and give you the ability to have more applications open before you begin to note some lag.
    However this is really nice to see:

  • When I begin to attempt to download the windows support software in boot camp, it says the windows support software is unavailable. Is there any other place I can download it for a Macbook Pro 5,5 intel core 2 duo without the original CD?

    When I begin to attempt to download the windows support software in boot camp, it says the windows support software is unavailable. Is there any other place I can download it for a Macbook Pro 5,5 intel core 2 duo with snow leopard without the original CD?

    Hi,
    apart from the MacBook Air this feature is of no use for other Macs right now.
    Simply ingnore it (click "I already have the Drivers...) and continue with the installation.
    Sorry to say but you need the OSX Install DVD for the BootCamp Driver installation.
    The 3.0 version of the BootCamp Drivers is only avaiable on the disc.
    Later updates (3.1 and 3.2) can be downloaded from Apples Support website.
    Call Apple and ask for a replacement and they usually send you one for a small fee.
    And have the Serial-Number of your Mac at hand when calling.
    And since the OSX Install DVD can also be vital for maintenance and repair it is best to have one.
    The needed BootCamp Drivers are on the OSX Install DVD 1 that came with your Mac.
    Insert that disc while in Windows after the Windows installation to install the drivers.
    Regards
    Stefan

    MacBook Pro 8,1 – Intel Core i5 – 2.23 GHz (early 2011) New with OSX 10.6 – current on all updates.
    I successfully installed rEFit. I used Boot Camp to install Win 7.  All was great.
    Then installed debian 6.  Somehow after the debian install and restart (I know this sounds crazy) but I am now reduced to Win 7 only. rEFit is not present when rebooting nor is OSX or debian. Further, I am unable to force the install DVD to launch when rebooting, by holding C, D or F8.  The Option key brings me to the grey screen with a padlock. I have attempted the root and local pw- no go. Restart holding D takes me to the windows boot manager. I have attempted several options within the Advanced Options; including – Repair Your computer, safe mode and “last known good config,” All of which did nothing.
    I can see all my OSX files within win7. I tried to install the OSX within windows. Ya right, that did nothing..
    I only desire to get back to OSX...
    What are my options??

    Yes, you royally hosed up your machine.
    You should first try to get your files off, any way you can to a external drive.
    Your going to need to hold c and boot from the disk that came with your computer and a couple of screens in under the menu is a option for Disk Utility.
    Select your drive and Erase with Security Option Zero, format the drive HFS+ Journaled and when that's finished (about a hour or so) then quit and install OS X from the installer.
    I hope this works, but I suspect it won't. Others have hosed their machines trying to use a Linux disk without proper partition formatting too.
    Another option might be to use another Mac to c boot off the Snow Leopard disk and install OS X onto a external drive, take that to the problem Mac and try holding option and booting off of it to erase your internal drive.
    You could replace the drive.

    Is this holding option while booting?
    There was someone else around here who hosed their Mac with a Linux disk too. Try to find it.

  • Cable that will connect to a VGA port on a TV from my MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)

    Hi,
    The HDMI port on my Maxent tv is not working.  I am hoping to connect my MacBook Pro to the TV via the VGA port on the TV to watch Netflix and movies.  What cables do I need that will connect to a VGA port on a TV from my MacBook Pro (2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo)?  And will that cable support audio or will I need a separate audio cable?
    Thanks-
    Sheri

    Hi Sheri,
    The Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro models have a Mini DisplayPort for video out, which can be connected to a VGA connector using Apple's adapter. See this product page -
    Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter - Apple Store (U.S.)
    VGA does not carry an audio signal.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
