What is the cheapest Mac Laptop I can buy?

I am looking for the cheapest Apple Laptop.
I don't want like the really old models, I want a newer model, like the Macbook Air.
I don't know how many variations there are but how much is the cheapest macbook, brand new condition.

You can save quite a bit of money by buying a refurbished MacBook Pro or Air from Apple. They come with the full year warranty and you can buy Apple Care for them. http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/mac

I have a MacBook Pro, 15-inch, Mid 2009. I would love to upgrade to a Solid State Drive. What is the best possible upgrade I can buy. I need the specs and even brand name. Thank you to anyone who can help.

A 15" mid-2009 MBP RAM specifications are: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
As has been pointed out, OWC is an excellent source for Mac compatible RAM. Crucial is another first rate source for Mac RAM. RAM from either vendor will work just as well as any purchased from Apple with the bonus of being less expensive and having a lifetime guarantee.

No. 55GB is the largest you can have (5GB free + 50GB upgrade).

What is the cheapest Mac I can buy, to successfully use SDK to develop iPad apps

Looking for advice on purchasing an inexpensive -- maybe refurbished -- Mac for the primary purpose of developing iPad apps...
What is the cheapest version that would be adequate?
Thx.

If the stock of refurb'd minis is down, a new one is still a tremendous bargain.
LCDs it will support and 3rd party ram are dirt cheap right now...

What's the best Mac laptop to run pro tools 10 on?

I use a Mac desktop at work and wanted to get a laptop to do extra audio production on using Protools 10..
Which Mac laptop would be the best to go for..
Thanks!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
The 15-inch MacBook Pro is the best computer. It has got a quad-core processor, it supports 16 GB of memory that you can install yourself without voiding warranty, two graphic cards, etc.
You can also have a look at the 13-inch MacBook Pro or the MacBook Air, but they probably won't give you the performance you really want

What's the latest Mac OS I can use with my older G4 Mac?

Hi Everyone,
My oldest Mac, a G4 running at 350 gHz, still has OS 9.2 and I'd like to upgrade the OS to the best version the Mac can handle. I tried calling the Apple CAre hotline and a kind AppleCare specialist asked for my old Mac's serial number, and said I could install OS 10.4.
Well, a good friend of mine happened to have Mac OS 10.4.7, but it won't install. It starts, but goes into basic and states it's hanging.
Apparently, 10.4 is too advanced or, did I do something wrong?
Where on the Apple website can I find which OS would work best on my older Mac?
Thanks.

If that computer has never had an OS X newer than OS X 10.1 installed in it,
you probably should check the Firmware (boot ROM) version noted in the
OS 9.2 running system's "System Profiler" to see what the firmware version is.
And then see if the computer needs to have the Firmware Update applied
before attempting to install an OS X version into the computer. It will need to
have a running OS 9.1/9.2 kind of system booting the computer in order to be
able to install a Firmware Update.
Lack of the proper firmware update can compromise the computer's hardware.
• Available Firmware Updates - Mac OS X:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1395
The installation instructions are should be carefully read & understood.
Also, in older iMacs and other early PPC Macs, you have to be sure the
computer's hard disk drive size capacity is correct, if upgraded to a larger
capacity hard drive; some old models need to have a small (8GB) partition
for the OS installation. Later ones don't require this, but may have a limit
on the total capacity of a drive used in certain older computers.
For general specifications on several different Apple hardware (and OS)
products, you could download a fairly good database of information from:
• MacTracker:
http://mactracker.ca
To see about purchasing an OS X 10.4 full install disc (aka retail) you could
check the auction sites or local Mac user groups, craigslist ads, and other
local dives or recycling centers; or try calling the main Apple sales support
number as shown in the Apple web site, 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask to speak
to a product specialist for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, if the person you talk to
does not appear to know about the older no longer listed Leopard install discs.
Be prepared to purchase when you call; the phone number is not a retail store.
(You may have to pay significantly more than their asking price for questionable
goods through some auction; and some web resellers of discs sometimes sell
the incorrect discs, in an auction sale, for more than the cost direct from Apple.)
Hopefully you aren't planning on a modern experience in that old a Mac.
Good luck & happy computing!

What is the latest Mac OS X that I can run on my 2.33 GHZ Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro?

My MBP was running the fan almost constantly and otherwise acting odd so I decided to just refresh the installation from scratch. At that time I was running Lion 10.7.5. Before rebuilding everything with that version I want to make sure running Lion on this machine isn't contributing to my issue.
What is the latest Mac OS X that I can run on my 2.33 GHZ Core 2 Duo Macbook Pro?
I have every OS release since the original purchase so I can rebuild on the one that's most stable on this laptop.

You can run Mt. Lion if you so wish:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If you want the most efficient OS, I would suggest Snow Leopard.
However I suggest doing some investigation prior to installing a new OS. First do a SMC reset:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
Also run an Apple Hardware Test. Use the #2 disk on your original install disk.
If there is no improvement, post back.
Ciao.

What is the biggest hard drive I can place in my mac book pro?

I have a late 2011 mac book pro 15". I need a bigger hard drive in the laptop because this one is just way too small. What is the biggest hard drive i can put in the laptop. I'm asking this because i can't find any real info on types of hard drives i can get and what not.

If you're going to trust your internal drive up to 1TB, which is indeed possible, I would recommend buying a backup drive of 2-3TBs. Personally, I'd rather have a 512GB SSD with a 2TB backup and a 2TB 'working' external than try to cram 1TB into my portable computer...
...that's just me...

Yes, you can install 16GB in your new macbook pro.
Go here (OWC) and here (Crucial) to give you options on how much you want to spend.
Good luck.

What is the latest MAC OSX that my Macbook 2,1 can support?

What is the latest MAC OSX that my Macbook 2,1 can support? It came with 10.4.11Lion.
I am upgrading my harddrive and would love to install the most current OS that I possibly can.
I also have a Macbook 3,1 with OSX 10.5.8 Leopard that I want to do the same with. If they can both run the same OSX that would be helpful too.
Thanks a MILLION!

Both of those MacBooks can run up to 10.7 Lion. (10.4.11 is Tiger) It's the RAM that you'll need to upgrade.
First you'll need to upgrade to 10.6 Snow Leopard. The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. After you’ve installed that then download the 10.6.8 combo updater to finish it off. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion, http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
System Requirements for 10.6:
Mac computer with an Intel processor
1GB of memory
5GB of available disk space
DVD drive for installation
Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.
You can put two 2gb RAM sticks in your model 2,1 but it can only use 3,3gb. This is a hardware limitation and cannot be changed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_GB_barrier
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/faq/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-3-g b-memory-limitation-details.html
OWC tests have found that there is a slight speed increase with having two 2gb sticks in rather than one 1gb and one 2gb. Your model is in the gray lines at the bottom of the graph. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/Memory_Benchmark/Apple_MacBook/
You can upgrade from 10.4 straight to 10.6 with no problems as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM. Any program that runs under 10.4 should run under10.6. See this list for third party programs compatibility with 10.6: http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/ You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications
http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/
I recently upgraded an older MacBook (Early 2006 model 1,1) straight from 10.4 to 10.6.
Once you are at 10.6.8 Lion is still available from Apple. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. to purchase it. Then within 3 days you will get an email with a code which you can use to download Lion from the App Store. Or go to http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion and purchase it there. The price is $19.99.
You must have at least a Late 2006 model 2,1 MacBook.
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

Hi Guys,

Hi Noob Søren
There are a few things that are confusing in your question.
As far as I know, you dont have to install Time Machine on this OS as it is already installed for you. You only need to connect a hard drive to your computer via firewire or usb, click on the Time Machine icon, Open Time Machine Preference in the drop down menu and select a disk: your connected hard drive.
You can of course reformat this connected device, partition it into a few volumes to organise data if you so wish.
I find it strange that your mac's hard drive is divided into two volumes... perhaps this was created through bootcamp?
You can access the configuration of your hd through Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities.
Clicking on one of the icons on the right hand panel will bring the details of the contents of your hardDrive and volumes. From there you can decide to erase a partition, reformat etc....
If your hd contains more than one volume, and one of them is empty, you could decide to remove it. Back up all your important data before doing so.
Hope this helps

If your phone is not covered by the warranty anymore, Apple will replace it for a new device, same model and size, if you are willing to pay the service fee.
If you decide to get a 3rd party company to do the repair, Apple will not service your phone anymore after that.
