Want to change the Ram on Macbook Pro?

I have MacBook Pro 15 Inch Mid 2010
The current memory is: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3,
I want to change the Ram to 16 GB rather than 4 GB,
I need an advice for the best one on Amazon?

How much RAM do you have installed? A minimum of 4 GB is suggested; more is much better depending on your use of the machine. It also helps to lots of empty hard drive space for the OS to work properly - how much empty space to you have on your hard drive?

  • IMessage - I changed the time on macbook pro and now it won't let me log in. All contacts are shown in red.

    I have a macbook pro, bought new in Sept 2011.
    Yesterday, I changed the date (forwarded it to 2020 - for a silly reason) and then changed it back. Now my iMessage on the macbook shows up that all contacts are offline and when I can't log in.
    I've trawled through a number of the already-existing threads on this and tried a few things - in Terminal, or in Systems Prefs but can't get it to work.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks, Pádraig.

    Log out or restart the computer and try again. Make sure the date is now correct.

  • Can i take the ram from macbook pro and put it in mac mini?

    Hey guys currently I have 8 gb of ram in my late 2011 mac macbook pro and was wondering if I could take it and put in into my new 2012 mac mini?  Thanks for the help?

    Only if they use the same RAM. That means same specs. Your Mini requires faster RAM than is installed in the MBP. They are not interchangeable.

  • Changing the screen ? Macbook pro 2006/2008

    Hi all !
    I need to buy a new mac laptop, but infortunately, I can't use the LED screens (yes, I know, it's a pity - it gives me serious headaches, and no one computer builder seems to take these kinds of problem in consideration), so I can "only" think about the last generation of macs laptops without LED-backlight screens, the Macbook pro 2006/early 2007.
    But I was wondering something : if I can find a later one, before the unibody generation, like the 2008 one, 15", (with a LED-baclight), and find a Macbook pro 2006 non-LED-backlight screen, 15", will it be possible to change the LED screen to the non one, and so giving to the 2008 computer a non-led technology, or will it be some incompatibilities at some points ?
    Thank you for your answer,
    Rergards,
    T.

    Thank you for your answer, but yes, I did. And even if it's not soooo fast on a anti-glare LED one, the headache come anyway after a while.
    I also have used special calibration software for this kind of problem (the one with sunglasses icon). Honestly, it gives me maybe half an hour more of work before headache. But a 3 days migraina (or migraine, too late to know the right writing) for 1h30 of work on a LED-screen is not something I can handle every day.
    The fact is that I have to work also at other places than home, or wandering ones. So, that's why I wonder if it's possible to change displays, and ask the wonderful Apple community. :-)
    Thank you for your answer,
    T.

  • How do you change the name of macbook pro

    How do you change the name of the MacBook Pro (not with Retina Display) ????
                                                                          David

    Note that some less-than-stellar applications may barf at the change, even though EVERYONE knows the name of a computer is not an authentication mechanism.
    On the same vein, if you change the name of the startup volume (aka Macintosh HD) after having put stuff there, even more poorly designed apps may barf.
    Just so you know and aren't caught by surprise.

  • Cost to change the whole keyboard Macbook Pro 13''??

    Hey
    i wish to know the estimate $$ for me to change the whole keyboard of my Macbook Pro 13'' Mid 2009

    I did two, a 2010 15" and an early 2011 13". The keyboard replacement on these machines is easiest done via replacement of the "top case".
    These cost me $79 and $69 off eBay.

    NicholasLiban -
       When you use the Lion restore as described, it does a fresh install on the hard drive that you can select at the beginning of the process.  This provides a complete install of the very latest version of Lion, including the recovery partition.  The drive that you choose for the installation destination winds up like what you would have on a brand new computer from Apple.

  • I want to change the settings (brightness, contrast, gamma) for my internal cam on Macbook pro. I find having to but a third party software (iglasses, webcam settings) to control basic settings as unnecessary and exploitative. Does anyone have a solution?

    I want to change the settings (brightness, contrast, gamma) for my internal cam on Macbook pro. I find having to but a third party software (iglasses, webcam settings) to control basic settings as unnecessary and exploitative. Does anyone have a solution?

    It is not about payment of $19.95 (Igalsses) or $7.99(webcam settings). This is a very basic setting that should be available in the system settings. The automatic setting of the internal cam does not work great on low lighting as everyone is aware.
    i am just amazed how users take in lying down and suggest solutions such as paying for a 3rd party paid app or improving the lighting in your room.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Of course. Corsair RAM is compatible with your Mac and the Early 2011 MacBook Pro supports 16 GB of memory. Make sure you buy the correct memory for your MacBook Pro. See > http://www.corsair.com/us/memory-by-product-family/mac-memory-upgrades.html

    Yes that is your best bet.  Without looking at it too closely double check your options here:

    My Aperture 2.1 has gone into a continual thumbnail mode.  I left the computer, a MacBook Pro, run all night, about 12 hours and it is still making thumbnails.  I tried reloading Aperture 2.1, but that did not change anything.  I have also turned the system off, for a period of time, and then turning it back on, when I click on Aperture, it comes up and locks in the thumbnail mode.  I can view my stored pictures, even modify them, but it still says thumbnails.
       I got in this mode by trying to import "one jpeg photo", from a scanned slide using a Nikon Scan4 IS5000ED scanner.  I had saved the scan to my  desktop before I tried to import it.

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • I am wanting in input audio to a MacBook Pro  running 10.9.4.  Since there is only the internal microphone as an input choice, how do I accomplish this?

    I am wanting in input audio to a MacBook Pro  running 10.9.4.  Since there is only the internal microphone as an input choice, how do I accomplish this?

    Not something I've ever done, but I found a 9-year-old article from MacWorld -> http://www.macworld.com/article/1041790/tapetocd.html - that explains it a bit. Apparently the only software that you need is GarageBand and a hardware interface. Just Google "copy audio cassette to mac" and you'll get tons of hits.
    Good luck,
