Scuff on MacBook Pro (Late 2006) non-glare screen

My otherwise pristine MacBook Pro (Late 2006 model, 2.33GhZ C2D) has developed a 1/4-inch scuff right in the middle of the screen. Small, but highly distracting, particularly when the area beneath it is white.
Can anyone recommend a product to minimize or buff it out? I've seen this stuff, but it's more for cleaning than removing scratches and scuffs:

I've also seen iPod scratch removers, but they seem to buff plastic out to a glossy finish, whereas this is a non-glare surface ... sigh.
Thanks for any help!

Late 2006? You do not say what graphic card.
I would imagine you are long past any recall.

khryzpher,
your model MacBook Pro’s Apple Hardware Test comes on one of those two grey installation DVDs; it’s an essential tool for troubleshooting. You’re going to need to contact Apple directly to purchase a replacement pair for your MacBook Pro; be sure to have its serial number handy.
Your model MacBook Pro didn’t originally come with Snow Leopard installed at the factory. If you don’t have the white retail Snow Leopard DVD, then I’d also recommend that you purchase that, in case your hard drive fails and you’d like to install Snow Leopard onto its replacement.

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:

Best monitor for MacBook Pro (Late 2012)

After searching Apple's knowledge base (reference: Using 4K displays and Ultra HD TVs with Mac computers - Apple Support), it appears that MacBook Pro (Late 2012 model) does not support 4K monitors, correct?
If this is the case, what's the best monitor (resolution and pricepoint) I can get for this model? Should I just try to find an old refurbished 27" Thunderbolt Display?
My MBPr runs a 2.9Ghz Intel Core i7 w/8GB RAM and OS X v10.9.5.
Thanks,
Nicholas

A Dell ultra Sharp would be a good buy. Depending on what size you want:

Otherwise, if you don't mind spending the money, and not worried about not using the monitor to its fullest this BENQ is an excellent monitor

More ram for Macbook pro gaming

I was wondering i have a 6750m 512mb and 4gb of ram, if i upgrade to 8gb will it help improve anything? will it help boost frames it stuff like call of duty ghost? or anything else i have i7 , macbook pro late 2011

Sorry, if I was paying attention I would have known that. I am always of the belief that if you do any type of gaming, especialy console ports, at least 8GB of RAM is a good number and a graphics card with 1GB of dedicated ram. Gaming asside, I consider 8GB to be a minimum these days. Apple still pushes 4GB as a jumping off point and for most people doing day to day tasks on a Mac (web browsing, word processing, etc) 4GB of ram paired with an i5 processor is sufficient. Most i7 processors are good enough for gaming, although quad core will make some difference. So to answer your question, I would think you will see some frame rate improvements by doubling your ram but the graphics card may still hinder you a bit.

Maximum Ram in Macbook pro Late 2008

I have acquired a Macbook pro late 2008, 2.4GHz Intel Core Duo and am wanting to upgrade the Ram. The handbook says 4GB is the max but Ive seen up to 8GB. I have used Crucial's scanner and it says 8GB. Which is correct please?

You can check further if you like, by going to http://www.everymac.com and click on the MacBook Pro and then go down to your model...it helps to have the Model Identifier to double check. But that should be a Unibody which uses 204-pin modules.
To get the Model Identifier: the apple left side of the menu bar, About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware and it will show the Model Identifier as MacBook Pro with a number such as 3,1. Compare that with the Everymac number to be sure.

Best ram for macbook pro 2011?

I am thinking about upgrading my macbook pro 2011 with 8gb or 16gb (overkill?) of ram. Which is the best ram/bang for the buck?

I upgraded to Crucial 16 GB on my MB Pro 6 months ago and have never, ever, even once been sorry or less than amazed.
Of course, a Crucial 512 GB SSD does not hurt, either. They work together seamlessly. Nice Mac, nice Mac.
12 seconds to boot up from full Shut Down? Too cool ............................................................................... ..
Leonardosanti says.
PS FYI: My old Apple-supplied 500 GB hard drive is now separately enclosed and makes an excellent full backup. Using SuperDuper to clone, it is bootable albeit as a spinning disc hard drive it runs much slower. Had my old Snow Leopard system and files on it. Jumped to a clean install of Mountain Lion. Did all this myself, glad its done, whew, successfully. The Ram and the SSD are gems, like the Crucial support people.
PPS Yes, these were expensive improvements. Ouch but ... Worth it.

I want to upgrade my Hardware on Mac book pro (Late 2006) 17-inch: 2.33GHz(MA611LL/A)
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP24
Ram: 2GB (two SO-DIMMs) on 2.33GHz configuration; two SO-DIMM slots support up to 3GB
HDD: 100GB 7200-rpm Serial ATA hard drive
Can I upgrade RAM To 4GB I know that board support only 3GB but is there anyway to make it support 4GB
Is the HDD Support SATA and can I upgrade To 500 GB SATA
Thanks for Help

Can I upgrade RAM To 4GB I know that board support only 3GB but is there anyway to make it support 4GB
Short of a logicboard change, no.
Is the HDD Support SATA and can I upgrade To 500 GB SATA
Yes. In fact, the 17" model is the only one that supports also the 1 TB internal SATA before the unibody enclosures.

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.

Problems upgrading RAM for Macbook Pro 13" late 2011

First, thank you all for your assistance.
I don't know if this has happened to anyone yet. I have a 13" late 2011 MacBook Pro that came with a default 4 GB of RAM. I considered upgrading to 8 GB and problems arose: I had stripes 1 inch in lenght distributed across the screen. I've done some research and saw that it was a hardware problem with the Graphics Card/GPU. I switched back to the original 4 GB and so far so good, no problems. I did notice a few key things:
Originally I have 384 MB of Video Ram in the GPU
While using the 8 GB Ram upgrade, it said 512 (called my attention)
It reverted to 384 when switching to the original RAM
In the tech specs section of Apple Support site about my machine, it says that the Video RAM is "shared" with main memory. No other knowledge on that.
Could the RAM upgrade affected the memory supported by the GPU? Why did it increase? Is there any solution to this?
Thanks to everybody in advance.

It should - I've 16GB of RAM installed in my late 2011 15" and my built-in card now shows 512MB of VRAM. There might have been a problem with the RAM you installed. I would only buy Crucial, Kingston (not the 'value' brand), OWC or Corsair (again, not the 'value' brand).
Some RAM sellers simply have less than stellar performance using Macs. Make sure that you install the correct speed and specs as recommended by Apple.
Good luck,
Clinton

Question on MacBook Pro (Late 2006) and OS X 10.5

I've owned the MacBook Pro I am currently using since April 2006. The specs for the system are as follows:
Hardware Overview:
Model Name:    MacBook Pro 15"
Model Identifier:    MacBookPro1,1
Processor Name:    Intel Core Duo
Processor Speed:    1.83 GHz
Number Of Processors:    1
Total Number Of Cores:    2
L2 Cache (per processor):    2 MB
Memory:    1 GB
Bus Speed:    667 MHz
Boot ROM Version:    MBP11.0055.B08
From November 2007 until about April 2011, I had 10.5 installed on the system. I reverted back to Tiger for certain reasons until this morning. I attempted to reinstall Leopard using the same discs used when I installed it back in 2007. However, this time I was told that Leopard could not be installed. This makes no sense.
Is there a workaround to reinstall Leopard?
Thanks in advance.

Makes sense if Apple updated the firmware not to boot off the 10.5 disk, your should have been able to upgrade from 10.4 to 10.5.
I have had the same problem, also I've heard of others not being able to boot from their 10.5 disks anymore.
You could go to 10.6, but Apple is going to deny OS X security updates for that version when 10.8 is released this summer, so you can't win there neither.
Your machine can't run 10.7, so eithe stay on 10.4 or upgrade to 10.6 for $29, because the 10.5 disks are not sold and a fortune used.

How much RAM can I put in my Macbook Pro (late 2006), and how much will it cost me?

I am currently running at a:
2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM in Memory
ATI Radeon X1600 256 MB in Graphics
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63) in Software
& it's a 15inch Macbook Pro incapable of upgrading to Mountain Lion.
I know i have a lot of limitations due to the age of this mac, but I would like
to know as to how far I can go with the one that I have. Please help.

Your MBP will be able to use a maximum of 3 Gb RAM. The exact specifications are: 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM. Best sources are Crucial and OWC. Their websites will have the prices.
Snow Leopard is an excellent OS. I have it on my 2010 MBP and have no intention of installing Lion/Mt Lion. It is stable and efficient, more so than the newer ones. Do not view that as a handicap.
You might also consider installing a larger HDD. Your MBP can handle the largest ones available to day (1 Tb). For a pre-unibody MBP, it is a bit harder than the current crop but achievable of you have rudimentary mechanical skills and a bit of patience. See the OWC website for excellent how to do it videos.
Ciao.

The Retina display models cannot have the ram upgraded post purchase...the ram modules are soldered to the logic board.
