Wanna Upgrade Ram But I Have a QUESTION.

OK so right now I have a new laptop and its macbook 2.16 with 2 512 chips i guess already installed. Seeing that i have a laptop that i bought on the release date of leopard.That means its not the newest one now. would it be ok to go ahead and install 4gb of ram but even though my computer is only registered to show 3 gb installed. Or would I have to go with the 3gb. I heard that they like it to either be 1 2 or 4gb so Im just wanting to know i don't want to ruin my new laptop thanx for looking and thanx of you that help me out..

Yes 4 GB is best for graphics but as mentioned only 3 gig is used . These tests, MacBook Memory Benchmark Test, can show the differences with different variations of RAM.

    Hey, it could be that I'm in the wrong place, but I have a question.
    So we are a gaming community, and we have the privilege of setting up tournaments in (exm) StarConflict.
    My question is , where looking for sponsers. I'm not asking mutch (like laptops or what ever) i'm just asking for like steam gift's to or members.
    And steam Gift's that we can give away as a price in or tournament... (or any way that we cud get sponserd)
    If I'm at the wrong place for this cud you redirect me to the right place?
    Thank you for your time, GrZ .

    I believe this is a question you need to ask MSI support...mailto:[email protected] They should be able to provide you with the information your looking for, or at least provide you with the direction of where to go. You could also contact some of the other MSI sponsored teams, and look to join them, or ask them how they became sponsored...

  • Why doesn't my program open? Error message states "not enough RAM" but I have 5 GB avail

    I have Elements 2.0. Have been using it on 3 computers. Suddenly this laptop won't even open the program. Error message states "not enough RAM" but I have 5 GB available. How can I fix this. No problem on other computers with same Windows 7, Elements 2.0. This laptop is an HP. Others are Toshiba & Dell.

    Even if you have 5GB of RAM, PSE can't make use of all of it because it is likely to be a 32 bit program (if not 16 bit).  PSE2 is very old made for Windows 2000 or Windows 98 but this was all before my time so my facts must be wrong here.
    I am amazed that you managed to install it on Windows 7 in the first place.

  • Hi, i want to buy a licence of Creative Cloud, but i have one question... Whats the best choose for a little enterprise?? And if i buy a Single Person Licence, on how many pc's can i install the suite??

    Hi, i want to buy a licence of Creative Cloud, but i have one question... Whats the best choose for a little enterprise?? And if i buy a Single Person Licence, on how many pc's can i install the suite??
    Thanks for helping

    no, that's incorrect.
    you can activate on 1 mac and 1 pc, or 2 pc's, or 2 mac's, concurrently.
    i have cc installed on 2 pcs and 1 mac.  i can only activate 2 at any one time which works well for me because my pcs are at home and my office and i use them most of the time.
    but when i travel i take my macbook so i just deactivate one or both of my pcs (uninstalling is not needed) and sign in to my macs cc app.

  • Looking to buy a MacBook, but I have some questions.

    Hey, i'm looking to buy a Macbook for school, but I want to know if I can buy a Macbook without the hard drive or ram. I have a compatable hard drive and ram already, and my dad has a family license for Tiger.
    So... can I buy a Macbook without the RAM/HD/OS? (I can't seem to find an option for that in the store).
    Thanks,
    MIkeB

    Thanks RadE8! My dad bought a MacBook Pro, but then upgraded the HD and the RAM, so i was hoping that I could use the stuff that came with it... Ah well.
    Thanks again,

  • I'm going to install Arch this weekend but I have some questions

    Currently I use Linux Mint on my primary PC, but I've installed Arch on my older PC at my parents house.  I like it a lot and I think I want a distro that is rolling release and also that I build myself (as opposed to installing all of the bloat on Mint).  However, I do have some questions; Linux is pretty new to me (been using it since about November) so I don't know exactly how everything works.
    1)  How do I know what packages I have to have installed for building C/C++ programs?  I know in Ubuntu install gcc/g++ by itself doesn't get the job done, you need build-essential to get all of the libraries.  Also, what packages do I need for OpenGL and SDL?  I'm a CS major and I'm in an OpenGL class so I need to be able to compile OpenGL programs; SDL is for my own purposes, but I'd still like to have it.
    2)  I use Amarok to transfer songs to my iPod.  Amarok 1.48 and libgpod 0.6.0 are in the repos and I know both of those are compatible with my 6th gen.  However, I do have a question about transferring album art.  On Mint, Amarok transfers the album art as I transfer the album, but someone told me that Amarok doesn't do that by default; there must have been a setting changed somewhere to do that.  I looked through Amarok's options and didn't see anything like that... anyone know if I can do that in Arch, and how?  There's no real information about Amarok in the wiki.
    3)  I'm going to use Gnome environment but some KDE apps (like Amarok).  Will there be any problems with that that I should know about in advance?
    I'll probably have some more questions once I actually install Arch, but that will do for now   Those are the important ones.

    1) You know by seeing its dependencies on pacman or by the developer documentation. Unlike other distros, you don't need to install dev packages. Example: You have gcc and all the basic gnu tools installed, and you want to compile a program that is not in a arch linux package yet (if theres a package, you can build it using abs / makepkg and pacman will handle the dependencies) and requires, for example, a library called "xyz", you only need to download "xyz" from pacman, and all the dev stuff will come together (like header and etc).
    I hope it helps.

  • I have searched but still have unanswered questions?

    First, I would like to comment on what a great resource this forum is.  Over the past several weeks, I have learned how to import 8mm tape (using an old Sony Handycam) into Imovie 11, edit, show the full frame, etc.  I purchased Idvd on the internet, shared the Imovie project to Idvd and burned dvd's.  I have done much reading of old threads but still have a few questions.
    There were threads discussing the quality of 8mm vids regarding the interlacing of the lines.  Apparently, Imovie dropped every other line.   Is this still a concern with Imovie 11?
    If dropping of every other line is still an issue, is there a way to prevent or work around?
    Now that I have shared the project to Idvd, can I delete the project from Imovie and then save it out of Idvd?  My intent would be to save to a separate drive.
    Is there a specific method for saving out of Idvd?

    After restoring the iPod to factory settings did you restore your data/content from a backup or did you set the iPod up as new?
    If you set the iPod up as a new iPod then your issue is most likely hardware related. If you are under warranty you can contact AppleCare or make a Genius Bar appointment to have the iPod replaced or repaired.
    If you restored your data/content from a backup then there is still a chance that your issue could be software related because the backup contains bits and pieces of the old software. Try restoring the iPod and setting it up as new.
    I hope this helps!

  • I can't upgrade Lion but I have Intel Core 2Duo

    I can't upgrade Lion and I have Intel Core 2Duo, but not Core i3

    There are various 3rd party shops that will sell upgrade kits and instructions. It depends on how courageous you are with a soldering iron (the cpu is soldered to the motherboard).
    There are also some hacks which will trick your Mac into thinking you have a Core 2 Duo so you can upgrade. I don't know how fast it will run if you do that. But I used a trick like that with my old MacBook to upgrade once when I wanted to upgrade and my actual specs didn't allow it and it worked fine.
    I think trying that would be easier than upgrading the actual cpu.

  • Yahoo mail tells me to upgrade Safari but I have the latest version of Safari 6.0.1  Is there a compatibility problem with Yahoo mail and Safari?

    Yahoo mail tells me to upgrade Safari but I already have the lastest version of Safari.  Is there a compatability problem with the Safari 6.0.1 and the latest version of Yahoo mail?

    Since Yahoo is web based email, the compatbility issue is on the Yahoo side, not Apple.
    You can access your Yahoo account without having to use Safari.
    Open the Mac Mail app. From the menu bar click Mail > Preferences then select the Accounts tab then the Account Information tab.

  • Looking to buy an iPad, but I have some questions?

    I see that Apple.com has some good deals on refurbished iPad 1's. I'm thinking about purchasing one because it'd be way lighter than luggin my laptop when I'm out and about, but I have a couple questions:
    1) Would I be able to have multiple "windows" (i.e. word processing, Instant Messenger, and web browser) open at the same time?
    2) How easy it it to convert documents typed up in MS Word to the iPages app, and to to switch them back to store on my laptop?
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    1) I'm not really worried about split-screening. I'm typing this in my laptop, and can only see my browser window, but I have MS Word and Yahoo! IM running, as well, and can easily shift from one to the other, and would like to have the same ability on something mroe portable. :-)
    2) I checked intio the iPages app, and it does look simple, but I guess my question should be whether or not a document I type on it can be easily converted back to Word for storage on my laptop.  :-)

  • Thinking of upgrading to SL,But i have some Question before moving to SL

    I will be glad if anybody can help me with my questions before moving to Sl.first,i like to know,after upgrading or fresh install,do i need to reinstall another windows xp on the machine,cos i use VMware Fusion?
    Secondly,What option is the best,Upgrade or Fresh install?
    Can i make backup using an external usb2 drive? and what can i do so my old setting remain after installing SL.Setting like my Chat history,and will my applications use the same lience key?
    Anybody with usefull advice?
    What important it the history of chat i had on my pc.i work for a company as a mid man and this history help me to remember last diccussion with client..

    In your place, I would move to SL if, and only if, I had an external drive with a bootable clone of my internal on it. I think that there is enough risk in going to SL that such conservatism is warranted. I would not use time machine alone for backup/restoring when moving to an OS upgrade or doing a point update. This app can be problematic and, consequently, its solo use is too risky for me in these cases. You will be able to extract your settings, files, and programs from your clone if you do an erase and install. You can erase and install or upgrade with any SL disk except the gray ones that come with specific machines. I still prefer to erase and install.
    To erase and install (see upgrade option below), start up to your DVD and stop after selecting your language. Use the menus to start Disk Utility and erase your drive. Quit Disk Utility and proceed with your installation. At the end, you will be able to choose to reclaim your settings, files, and apps from the clone (plug in the external at the point of the last install restart).
    If you do not like SL, then you can restore your internal using the clone. I would do all cloning and related restoration with SuperDuper, Carbon Copy Cloner, or some other up-to-date cloning app, including Disk Utility. Your clone also will serve as an independent backup for your data.
    Upgrading is a very sound process on a Mac. Still, I also would insist on having a bootable clone on an external before upgrading. An upgrade is performed by installing over your existing installation from the desktop or having started from your SL DVD. All your programs, data, and settings will be present after an upgrade, but incompatible programs will be archived.

  • Upgraded RAM but now won't recognize

    I just bought a 1GB kit from RAMJET (2x 512mb) and installed the new DIMM's inside my mac. Now when I plugged everything back in and rebooted, the computer is not recognizing the new memory. When I go to "About This Mac" the system profile says there is nothing in the two slots where I put the new RAM. Before upgrading I had 1GB of factory installed RAM (2x512mb).
    My system says I have 8 slots (J11 through J44) and that I have "DDR SDRAM with a speed of PC3200U-30330." I purchased 1gig DDR400 128bit. These are the same right?
    I read the instruction manual and did everything by the book before opening the case. Is there something extra I should be doing to make this work?

    I adding 3 gig of RAM on my SP 1.8. I had all sorts of issues after the first 6 months. Apple blamed the RAM upgrade. I had the vendor replace it and now 2 of new simms are fine, but 2 simms will not be recognized no matter where I put them. All 4 of th enew simms are the exact same thing. Any suggestions or tests I can do before I call the vendor again?
