Upgrading 4GB to 8GB iPhone 1.0

Need Guidance.. I have 4GB iPhone 1.0 and I want to change it to 8GB (1.0). what step i need to do?
1. I switch it do i need to move the My SIM card first to the new one, and sync it on iTunes.
2. Use the new SIM card when I Sync to iTunes and type my number when prompted..

sorry, I thought you meant you would take your sim card from your old iphone & move it to the new iphone, sync on itunes, enter ph# if necessary etc. You shouldn't need to use a brand new sim card

Mac mini (mid 2010) RAM upgrade 4GB or 8GB

I have a mid 2010 Mac mini with 2GB of RAM. My question is - Should I upgrade the RAM to 4GB or 8GB?
Thank you, DZetko

It's is better to go for the full 8GB upgrade now,
that way you will not have to upgrade again when OS X and your personal usage demand more.

Switching SIM from 4GB to 8GB iPhone?

Can I switch from my 4GB iPhone to a 8GB iPhone without having to pay for a new contract (even if it leaves the 4GB unusable)? Can I just put the SIM card into the 8GB? Anyone have any success doing this?

Yes you can, you just have to activate the new phone by inserting the sim and then sync it with iTunes
And your old phone is not going to be unusable, the only thing that will not work is the phone features

Went from 4gb to 8gb iPhone - how can someone else reactivate 4gb one?

Hello,
I own a 4gb iPhone and I recently bought a 8gb iPhone model. I activated the 8gb one and transfered my phone number to it. The question: what do I do to re-activate old 4gb one with a new number? My wife decided that she'd love to have to one.
As a bonus, it'd be nice if I could go back to 4gb model and give her the 8gb one since her iTunes library is much larger, but I'm not sure if that's possible at this point being that I've already activated 8gb one.
Thank you very much for any tips on this one. I've read all docs, but couldn't find much.

archivist08,
Get a new SIM card from AT&T, as long as the iPhone hasn't been blocked by AT&T from being reported as stolen. Restore the iPhone without the SIM card in, and then insert the new SIM card and activate.
Hope this helps,

Which is better 4Gb or 8Gb iPhone?

I bought the 4Gb iPhone and I am having second thoughts about it. I am thinking about exchanging it for the 8Gb. Any suggestions?
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.10)

If you can afford it buy the larger one. However, this really depends on what you want to carry on the phone. Certainly if you have more space, you can carry more things with you.
With iPods etc, I have always bought the lower capacity ones because my music collection exceeds even the largest capacity iPod. However, in the case of the iPhone, I'm carry more movies and pictures, and music. As a result of more integrated stuff, I'm using more space - only 200mb free.

4GB vs 8GB iPhone for old geezer

I'm thinking of getting a 4GB iPhone (I've never had a cell phone) and I would be interested in any opinions vs the 8GB phone.
My thinking is that I have all my music on my 15GB 3rd generation iPod and wouldn't be moving much of it to the iPhone. Also, I wouldn't ever be watching movies, etc.
So for $100 savings I'm looking at the 4GB model. I've been told there would be no difference in speed of operation; is that correct?
Thanks for any information.

The only difference between the two is storage capacity but your interests might change down the road and with storage capacity, it is better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it - especially with "only" $100 more for double the capacity.
Regarding your music, the iPhone can take the place of your iPod so you don't need to carry two devices and once you use that gorgeous screen, you may end up placing a movie or two or TV show on your iPhone. When I demonstrate the iPhone's video feature for a friend, the comment is always wow. The iPhone is also great for storing and viewing photos.
If your are confident about never using the iPhone for video nor for most or all of your music, the 4GB should be fine.

Upgraded 4gb to 8gb - iTunes not updated!

Help! I used to have a 4gb ipod mini and now have 8gb ipod nano. But when trying to load new songs to my library, it still has the 4gb limit so won't load any new songs, maxing out at just under 4gb - how do I fix this??

Sorry, i mean when loading to i-Tunes. It's like my library has 'maxed out' - i select add new folder or file to library, choose the songs or folder, and then nothing happens. The songs don't go to my library. I was wondering if its because of my old ipod mini with the 4gb limit.

Adding ram to mid-2009 Macbook Pro - 4gb vs 8gb?

I want to add ram to my mid-2009 Macbook Pro. It currently has 2gb ram. Any thoughts of whether I should upgrade 4gb or 8gb ram? It has a 2.26ghz intel core 2 processor. I only use the computer for internet and the occasional document editing.

If your needs are that modest, then 4 GB is fine. However, Mavericks is designed to use as much RAM as is available, and so more RAM is always better.
If I were you, I would put 4GB of RAM in, and then buy an SSD to replace the hard drive. You will be surprised how much faster it will be! It's the best way to extend the useful life of a older Mac.

Just ordered iPhone 4GB should I upgrade to an 8GB ?

A few days ago right after Apple announced the price reduction on the iPhones I ordered an iPhone 4GB from the Apple.com website as I look further I noticed there are some refurbished 8GB iPhones available for $349 has anyone had any experience with the refurbished iPhones from Apple? Are they just as good as new ones? Is there really a huge difference in the 4GB to 8GB i doubt i'll be adding alot of videos to the iPhone. Would it be wise just to keep the 4GB even though its been discontinued?

Much depends on what you're going to be using your iPhone for (i.e. iPod, prolonged internet surfing etc.) as not everyone utilizes every facet of the phone. You mentioned that you probably wouldn't be downloading a lot of videos but it's nice to know you have that option with memory to spare. Even at full price, it was worth it for me to pay the extra $100 and double the capacity. I've not heard much feedback on the iPhone refurbs but Cingular/AT&T have always provided good quality with other refurbished phones in the past.

MacBook Pro. 4GB to 8GB Upgrade.

MacBook Pro. 4GB to 8GB.
Introduction
"Cost-Benefit Analysis"
Features
Boot Time: Is it affected by the upgrade?
Applications
Conclusion
1. Introduction
Greetings, today I am going to discuss the positive and negatives aspects about the
upgrade that many are tempted to perform, before during and after the purchase of an Apple
Personal Computer i.e. MacBook, MacBook Pro, iMac and so on.
I am going to use my first and recently bought MacBook Pro as a "guinea pig" today
by performing and reviewing the upgrade from 4GB of Random-Access Memory (RAM) to 8GB.
I hope you all enjoy it and that this review is useful to you as a guide to aid your decision
to upgrade or not.
Well let's get started shall we?
2. "Cost-Benefit Analysis"
We all know how expensive Apple Computers are for the vast majority of the population,
however I am sure if you are here you do appreciate, like me, the reasons why such cost,
but this is another discussion. Let me focus.
The first option we have right off the bat is to do the upgrade as we purchase the machine,
which is offered to you when you order online, through the phone or buy it directly from an
Apple Store.
I did consider upgrading directly with Apple for the obvious reasons but unfortunately
I wasn't able to this time, the £160.00* upgrade price was a little too high for me, not overpriced,
just a little too high for me. (* or $200.00 USD)
So here is what I have done: I have acquired the part from a third part company which
offered the so called upgrade for £59.99. So I decided to give it a go, before you ask my
warranty will not be voided as RAM and any user replacable parts DO NOT void your
equipment warranty as stated by Apple®.
As you can see the specifications of the product match perfectly what is already inside
a MacBook Pro. But obviously still won't be as good as the 8GB from Apple.
Now to the benefits. rest assured that this upgrade will not be noticed by all of you, and
what I mean by that is: If you only use your Mac for browsing the web or office suites, you do
not need this upgrade, however if you do heavy video or image processing or anything that
requires that little bit extra, you will notice the difference in performance baring in mind that
this model of MacBook Pro has no dedicated graphics card therefore upgrading is a fantastic
way to avoid "paging" and I think for 60 bucks that is a bargain.
3. Features
RAM is constantly used by the system, obviously, serving as temporary storage and
working space for the operating system and its applications.
You may or may not know that most computers use something called "virtual memory"
is a method that consists of a portion of the system's hard drive being set aside for use as
a paging file that extends ram capacity. I.e. 4GB of RAM + 1GB of Paging file gives a system
a total of 5GB of memory available. Obviously upgrading from 4GB to 8GB will enable you to
have more memory without "sacrificing" a part of your hard drive.
RAM is used in numerous others ways on a computer.
3.1 Boot Time: Is it affected by the upgrade?
| To be updated soon. |
3.2 Applications

4.0 Conclusion

3.1 Boot Time: Is it affected by the upgrade?
I did not notice any differences, maybe some miliseconds more or less.
3.2 Applications
        Applications it's a hard one to speak about, it seems to me that the system is coping more easily with tasks that require that little extra. Video and Photo editing and so on.
4.0 Conclusion
         Is it worth it? The truth is for some people yes, for some definitely NOT. If you are looking for that little extra performance just to feel good about it, definitely do it! However if all you do is browse the web and the odd word processing and a few presentations a month, it may not be that beneficial for you. I believe that if you truly want some serious performance, look for the power processing first i.e. Get a 15'' or a 17''; even though they are a bit more expensive they are recommended for video editing and tasks that require high speed and performance.
          In terms of where to buy it from, I found that buying from the third party company Crucial was no different than what would have been from Apple itself, it is EXACTLY the same memory, I compared them both side a side and all the specifications and manufacturers where the same on the 4GB and the 2GB unit.
          Few things though guys:
Please be sure to use a good quality Phillips #00 Screwdriver, you DO NOT want to damage those screws and you want to have ease on opening the machine.
Please only install quality RAM.
Please discharge yourself of any static by wearing a Static Bracelet or touching a metal surface inside the computer.
Please be sure to turn OFF the computer "Shut Down", I repeat do NOT put it to sleep, SHUT IT DOWN.
Please be patient; do not rush things.
          That's it for my adventure Upgrading my MacBook Pro RAM, guys I hope you enjoyed, sorry about the delay and enjoy your 8GB MacBook Pro, I certainly will.
If you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact me.
Walter.

Can I upgrade my RAM from 4GB to 8GB for my MacBook Pro 13(early 2011 2.7GHz)? And how much would it be?

Can I upgrade my RAM from 4GB to 8GB for my MacBook Pro 13(early 2011 2.7GHz)? And how much would it be?

you can upgrade to 16GB if you wish to do so...
average price for 8GB 1333MHz DDR3 is around $50 - $75 depending on the brand.
why not spend $100 and go with 16GB 1333MHz from Crucial or Corsair.
you can get them from Amazon.com or newegg.com
see image below with 16GB Patriot Mac Series 1333MHz for $100.

I want to upgrade my ram from 4GBs to 8GBs, can you help me?

Dear Apple company,
     I have a Macbook 5,4, but I want to upgrade its RAM from 4GBS to 8GBs, can you help me this quest?
                                                                                                                 Thanks,

This is a customer forum, and not Apple folks. If you wish official or formal Apple assistance, please call Apple directly or visit your local Apple store, or check directly with an Apple reseller.
I don't immediately see a MacBook5,4 around, but I do see a Apple MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo 2.53 GHz 15" model MC118LL/A Mid-2009, and that configuration does reportedly support up to 8 GB of memory per the Apple Specs.
Apple might not stock or offer memory upgrades that far back (but do ask them), though I'd expect various third-party memory providers will likely still have some 4 GB 1066 MHz SO-DIMM DDR3 memory sticks around.
But if yours is really a MacBook5,4 model here — the closest I can find is a MacBook5,2 — then ignore this.

I have an 21.5 Mid 2011 iMac and i want to upgrade my RAM. Currently I have two 2GB and two free slots. Do I have to put in two 2GB in the free slots or can I use two 4GB or 8GB?

You can leave the existing RAM in their current slots and add compatible modules in the empty slots. For best performance, add two of teh same size. Our 2010 iMac 21" shipped with 4GB RAM---two 2GB modules in two of the four slots. I added two 2GB modules to the empty slots and now have 8 GB RAM.
Be sure to order RAM from a trusted Mac-savvy RAM vendor. Some vendors thing a Mac is a hamburger. For over a decade I've bought all our Mac RAM (and we have 18 Macs in teh family!) from one vendor:

Crucial.com is also a trusted vendor.
