Upgrading from an intel core 2 processor

I would like to upgrade from Intel core 2 due processor, my model identifier is Pro 7,1

No, I'm afraid not.
I would suggest that you have 3 options:
Buy a used, but newer model, at places like eBay and Amazon.
Buy a new model from Apple.
Buy an Apple refurbished model - usually last year's and sometimes the year prior to that.

Upgrading from Original iPhone to iPhone 3GS help!

Okay, I just read an article stating that it will cost a fat wallet to upgrade from the 3G to the 3GS, because of the whole contract early/late upgrade thing whatever. I still have the normal iPhone and I didn't upgraded to the new 3G. My contract has long been done and fulfilled. Do I have to pay the same crazy amount as 3G users to upgrade or will I have the benefit of buying it with the original $199/$299 price?

Hey Leprechaun251,
I think you may have some luck here. As you said, you have already completed your 2-year contract, right?
If so, then I think you can enjoy that subsidized price by opening a new two-year AT&T wireless service contract.
Still, I think you should contact AT&T to clear this ideas. Hope this helps!

Is it possible for me to upgrade from an intel core duo processor to an intel i5 core processor?, Is it possible for me to upgrade from an intel core duo processor to an intel i5 core processor?

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.

Upgrading Intel Pentium Dual Core T2060 processor on my Sat Pro - A120-223

Hello,
This is my basic system:
Toshiba Satellite Pro A120-223
Processor: Intel Pentium Dual Core T2060 1.6 GHz
RAM: 4GB upgraded recently ;-)
CHIPSET: 945GM
FSB: 533MHz
Is it possible to upgrade my processor? If yes, which Intel processor can I upgrade to? I know that my FSB will limit my options, but is there anyway to go around this..? I??m a business student so I handle large statistical software packages; I also do multi-media work for my presentations; I realised that my current processor just about handles ok in intense calculations, but I was hoping for something better and more stable?
If there is a way to upgrade my processor, I??m willing to do it, but if not, then I would just have to settle for this one.
Thank you all for your help, I look forward to reading all your posts.

Upgrading from Original to 3GS. Please help.

I am wanting to upgrade my original generation iPhone to the newer 3Gs. I am planning on giving my wife the original generation iPhone to replace her Blackberry Curve. My question is:
Once I purchase the new 3Gs, will the new phone sync with iTunes and put all my current Apps like I have everything on this current phone? I assume once I register the phone with iTunes my phone number will be transferred to the new phone? As for my wife, how will she get her phone number to the original iPhone that I am giving her? Does she just register the original phone on iTunes as well or should she swap out her SIM card with the one in the original phone?
Please help, this is my first iPhone upgrade and I don't want to mess anything up and lose all my Apps that I have. Thanks!

See this: How to replace an original iPhone with an iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109
Here are AT&T's instructions for your wife: Give these instructions to the new iPhone user to activate or upgrade:
Customers new to AT&T or adding a new line to an AT&T account:
1. If an AT&T SIM card is not provided, visit an AT&T Store and inform them you need a SIM card for your iPhone (www.wireless.att.com/find-a-store/).
2. If an AT&T SIM card is provided, insert the SIM card into iPhone.
IMPORTANT: If your activation was processed in an AT&T store, you must choose the Existing
Customer option in iTunes.
3. Complete the activation process at home or work via iTunes at www.apple.com/itunes
Existing AT&T Customers
1. Use current AT&T SIM card.
2. Complete the activation process at home or work via iTunes at www.apple.com/itunes
The iTunes activation process will perform a credit check when activating a new line of service. iTunes will also allow you to transfer your number from a different wireless carrier, select a rate plan and required data plan, upgrade your text message package, set up your iTunes account, accept iPhone and AT&T Terms and Conditions, and download the latest version of software to your iPhone.
How to Insert/Remove the SIM Card
To insert the SIM card, insert the end of a small paper clip into the hole on the SIM tray (located at the top of your iPhone). Press firmly and push it straight in until the tray pops out. Insert the SIM card so that it is positioned within the tray’s form. The gold side will be visible if the SIM card is positioned correctly. Close the tray.

How to proceed to upgrade from SP9 to SP16? plz help.

Hi All,
   I am new to MI.
   We have installed WAS6.40(ABAP+J2EE) SR1 installation and on SP9 now.
   We want to move to SP16.
   Can any1 guide us on the following points:
     1) Do we have to do any configuration (of MI) part now and then move to SP16?
     or
     2) Can we apply SP16 patch first on WAS and then do the MI configuration.
We have gone through some documents on SDN .. but, we are not very sure of how to go about from this point.
Would be grateful.. if some1 can share us any screenshots of procedure to go about.
Plz help.
Thanks.
Nilesh.

hi Nileshwar,
Welcome to MI.
>>Do we have to do any configuration (of MI) part now and then move to SP16?
>>2) Can we apply SP16 patch first on WAS and then do the MI configuration.
If u use the SP16 Config guide, you won't find certain things (missing steps) in SP9 Level. So, if you Upgrade first and then configure, you will be able to do it successfully.
if you had already done some configuration in SP09, they won't get deleted/corrupted if you upgrade. they will stay. you may cotinue it from that point after upgradation.
The Config guide that you get from the Service Market Place, is clear enough for any NewBie's to work on.
regarding the upgradation of WAS, as far as i know there are no documentation available for upgradation.
The upgradation goes like this :-
*. Stop the server
1. Kernal Patch - after this start the server.
2. SPAM Patch - Transaction code SPAM in client 000 user DDIC.
3. ABAP Patch - Transaction code SAPM in client 000 user DDIC.
4. J2EE Patch - A Installable like SAPinst.exe file
You can jump from sp09 to sp14 for J2EE stack right away.
But for ABAP patches, you should go step by step. ie. you have to add patches 09,10,11,12,13,14 - all of it can be found from Service.sap.com/swdc. you may do it at one go - by putting them in a queue in SAPM and let the system do it one by one. The same procedure for SPAM Patches (level 19) - yours will be in level 17.
Kernel patch is just copy pasting the files into its directory. it will get over in no time.
Regards
Ak.
PS: Pl. Post only one question for the problem. i guess you have done more. so please close the other question.

Upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8 - Help!

Hello,
Previouslly I asked how to downgrade my HP ENVY dv7-7332ea from the windows 8 to the W7 you can see this post I made " http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/HP-ENVY-dv7-7332ea-Downgrade-to... ".
So now with the release of Win 8.1 I want to give it a go I have my W8 recovery media 10 DvDs in total, the problem is I can't make it boot from the BIOS screen, after making the 1st boot option as DVD or CD-Rom still doesn't boot any help please?
Thanks,
Nuno Pedrosa

Have you tried enabling secure boot again?
Did you leave the recovery partition alone when you installed Windows 7?

Resource Breaks When Upgrade from SQL Server 2000 to 2005 - Help!

I have a resource that connects to mutiple databases:
<ResourceAttribute name='Databases' displayName='com.waveset.adapter.RAMessages:RESATTR_DATABASES'
description='com.waveset.adapter.RAMessages:RESATTR_DATABASES_HELP' multi='true'>
<value>dbOne</value>
<value>dbTwo</value>
<value>Employee_Info</value>
</ResourceAttribute>
It all works fine when the backend SQL server is 2000, but since we've upgraded it to 2005, the connection fails with this error:
Test connection failed for resource(s):MenuSQL: Required database dbOne not found.MenuSQL: Required database dbTwo not found.MenuSQL: Required database Employee_Info not found.
I'm using the MS SQL JDBC driver for 2005 and I've verified that my connection url is good:jdbc:sqlserver://%h:%p;databaseName=%d;integratedSecurity=true; where %h and %p are the correct host and ports.
I turned on tracing of com.waveset.adapter.MSSQLServerResourceAdapter and com.waveset.adapter.JdbcResourceAdapter and I don't see any errors or issues reported.
If I set it back to connect to the SQL 2000 databases, it works. If I change it to only connect to one database, rather than 3 it works. However, I need this working on 2005 with all three databases. Any ideas on what I can look at or how I can further troubleshoot this?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Turns out the driver I'm using is fine (sqljdbc.jar). The problem is that the IdM source code executes "sp_databases" to list the databases. In SQL versions prior to 2005 this would work by default. But with 2005 a user has to be granted permissions to do so.
To fix it you need to either grant the IdM ID you're using VIEW DEFINITION permission at an appropriate scope: object level, database level or server level or modify the stored procedure so that it executes under the credentials of the owner.

Just upgraded from pre '05 iMovie... help?

Greetings. For years have very happily made quick videos with pre '05 iMovie. (Remember the "clips" in the "rack" top right?)
Just started a Video Club with fourth and fifth graders, so thought I'd update to iMovie '11.
Seems every bit of intuitive ease and speed is gone. Am I wrong?
Any suggestions for discovering the "hidden genius" in iMovie '11 would be much appreciated. (Must I buy a third-party manual? After DECADES of using Macs, FCPro, etc. this would be the first time.)
And I'd love to do simple things like move my mouse through the clips without the sound scrubbing away; I'd love to place audio without iMovie deciding to place it somewhere else for me; etc.
Thanks.

yes
you're used to the 'standard' metaphor of any other NLE, the timeline etc etc.
iM11 is no successor of iM-a (≤ vers6), but a from the ground new app, iM-b.
you have to learn it new, here's how:
http://help.apple.com/imovie/interface/index.html#button-0
and according to speed: in iM-b, everything is now real-time, in iM-a you had to wait for any applied title or effect to be 'rendered'.
... (Must I buy a third-party manual? After DECADES of using Macs, FCPro, etc. this would be the first time.)
watch a person, which has no experience with iM-a - iM-b IS intuitive, not for us Silver Backs. And, btw, without a book of Tom Wolsky, you're lost in FinalCut! ....
... I'd love to place audio without iMovie deciding to place it somewhere else for me; etc.
you can place any audio with (almost) frame-precision, same as in iM-a, by switching iM11 into a timeline-mode. but most iM-b users like to play LEGO with audio and video, therefor that 'bricks'-metaphor, the preset interface offers, is +well enough+ .
especially movie-maker-beginners, in my experience, love the simplicity of iMovie - no handles, no layers, no codecs, no 'techniqué'.
spend some time with the tutorials, mentioned above, BEFORE teaching others ...

G5 killed by mail when upgrading from Panther to Tiger...HELP!

Hello,
I just upgraded one of our G5s from Panther to Tiger. When I opened mail, it began "importing" all the messages (I assume because of the update to mail.app). Now, the user who's computer I upgraded contained 9GB of mail (!!!) but the G5 had more than enough space for this. When the "importing" completes, mail.app is open and all folders/subfolders, etc. are there, but the program doesn't contain any of the messages from the import. Every folder/subfolder is empty, the inbox is empty, etc. AND, to top it off, the HD of the G5 now has zero free space (while, when before the import, it had at least 40GB of free space). Does anyone know a fix for this? Has this happened before?
Regards,
Kristin.

OPEN LETTER TO THE MAIL 2.0 CODING TEAM. RSVP.
with thanks to DAVID GIMENO GOST, for answering so many people's posts about all the mail 2.0 bugs.
hi guys,
i love all things apple, and i have done for twenty years.
but with respect, your build of mail 2.0 really could be a lot better.
moving my mail from 1.0 on an ibook g3 running os X 10.3.9, over to mail 2.0 on an intel macbook 1.83 running os X 10.4.7 has been a nightmare.
the discussion boards of many mac sites feature countless cases of people making the move from 1.0 to 2.0, with all their e-mails disappearing.
having spent two weeks reading the knowledge forums, and learning about emailchemy, plus all the complications which, even with that third party program, still exist in moving one's mail over from version 1.0 over to 2.0, are both massive and horrendous.
and that's for me, who has twenty years of finding my way around mac bugs.
but this one is the most difficult i've ever seen, as well as being one of the most widespread problems in a FULL VERSION RELEASE of an apple program, which apple has done nothing to resolve during the six months in which this problem has been widespread in the mac community worldwide.
so thank god for DAVID GIMENO GOST !
i'm amazed that apple still hasn't come up with a patch for moving mail from 1.0 to 2.0.
even now, while i've finally got all my mail back today, 95% is showing as unread, due to the last obstacles in the process, which i can no longer face solving.
i've also lost hundreds of red mail flags during the transfer :o(.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, guys:
we shouldn't need to be buying third party software to move our e-mails from apple mail 1.0 up to apple mail 2.0, and even then be faced by massive hurdles to overcome, which take weeks for someone who at least has SOME idea of what he's doing.
i pity all the people who read the numerous forum posts about how difficult it is to transfer their mail from 1.0 to 2.0, and simply give up on the spot, and have to start their e-mail history TODAY, unable to access their previous e-mail again - potentially now for ever.
because the ironic joke is that we can't even have an access copy of mail 1.0 on our macs to read our old e-mails, unless we hack that program out of the 10.3 cd installation set, which the gurus on your own web site recommend us NOT to do !
so what are we supposed to do, to access our old e-mail, which we can't open, even though YES, it is in our mail folder, and YES, we did full rebuilds of every mail folder, and YES, we trashed our mail preferences first.
e-mail is now at the very center of the average mac user's digital life.
a user's most important program should not require countless hours scrolling through the astonishing number of problems within mail 2.0, which the apple.com discussion boards evidence, with new problems being added every day.
please sort this out, and build a patch, for the sanity of the many people who love apple, but who are unable to access any of their old e-mails.
because i wouldn't wish the last fortnight on anyone else.
RSVP, APPLE.
with best wishes to everyone on the infinity loop,
michael thorne

[email protected]
ps: if you're a mac user who has been affected by the mail 2.0 disappearing bug, please post a reply to this message, and send me an e-mail to: [email protected], so that we can draw apple's increasing attention to it. thanks.

How to transfer photos when upgrading from ver 6 to ver 11 HELP!!

Can someone please HELP. I have version 6 on my computer. I have a new version 11 FULL install on cd. After I install version 11, how do I transfer all of my pictures over from version 6? After that is completed, I assume that I can just uninstall version 6 from my computer? Thanks anyone for the assistance.

Thanks Barbara B for your timely assistance! If I understand you correctly, after I install version 11 (FULL install, not a version update), my Catalog (4659 items in 256 folders) will automatically be imported into the version 11 Organizer. At that point I can uninstall Elements version 6 from my hard drive. That sounds too easy, but do I have it about right? Thank you!

Lost all Apple App's in Upgrade from G5 Dual 2.5GHz to the G5 Quad

I just got the new G5 Quad and did the Firewire rehost of all my data. Interstingly enough, all my app's like Reason, PhotoShop, Premier, Poser, Bryce, Maya, even MS Office and ZBrush moved right over with their respective serial numbers however Shake, Motion, Soundtrack Pro, Final Cut Pro HD, Compressor, LiveType and Cinema Tools all refuse to work without their serial numbers being re-entered. If you try to re-enter your serial# it tells you it is no good.
All I could do was throw all the Apple professional applications away and re-install them. Then the system would accept the same serial #'s it refused to accept before. I'm not sure is will work for all Pro App's yet as I've only had time to do Shake and Motion.
Anyone else seen this?
G-5 Quad 2.5GHz, Powerbook 1.25GHz Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Did you use the Migration Assistant? If so, that could be the problem. It probably didn't copy some important invisible files. I always suggest using Carbon Copy Cloner via Firewire Target Disk mode to clone a drive over.
