What is the max amount of ram can I put in my Macbook Pro (2010 Model)?

I was wondering what is the max amount of ram can I put in my Macbook Pro?
Here is some specs of my macbook pro:
Version: 10.7.4 (Lion)
Processor: 2.66 Ghz Intel Core i7
Memory: 4 GB 1067 Mhz DDR3
Also I bought my macbook pro in 2010 when I had Snow Lepoard on it.

  • What is the largest hard drive that can be put in a Macbook Pro 17 MA897

    I am looking to upgrade an existing Macbook Pro 17 model MA897 and am looking for the specifications as to the largest hard drive that can be installed and where is the best place to purchase drives.

    The HDD makers have yet to breach the 1TB limit in the 2.5" formfactor. But there is hope, as one of the makers (Toshiba, IIRC) announced the discovery of a radical new way of magnetic encoding which will permit much denser packing of the magnetic domains in the rotating disk, and much higher capacities. Promised to come out with 3-4TB 2.5" devices before the year is out and maybe 10TB+ in the coming years. We'll have to wait and see.
    BTW and since The Age of the Lion (and probably Mountain Lion too) has forsaken the need of an optical drive for system recovery, some users have decided to remove the no longer critical device and planting another HDD in its place. Might be looking into if you really need the capacity and don't care to lug even more weight above of what the 17" entails.

  • What is the max amount of RAM that I can install using Snow Leopard?

    What is the max amount of RAM I can install in my MacBook Pro? Does having Snow Leopard raise the RAM limit?

    or
    (2) 2GB sticks?
    In general, for best performance, it's best to match up the same size modules in each slot (2x2 in this case). However, given that it's only going to read 3GB, I'm not sure if that holds true here.

  • What is the maximum hard drive size can I install into my MacBook Pro 15 "late 2008 ?

    I don't recommend you to install a hard drive bigger than 2 TB if you are going to install Windows in Boot Camp or you may have problems
    The largest 2.5" SATA HDDs of 9.5 mm thickness that I am aware of are 1 TB in capacity.  There is a 12.5 mm thick  HDD that will fit some MBPs.  But I have not seen any of larger capacity. 
    Are there now 2 TB HDDs available for MBPs?    If so, I am interested.
    Ciao.
    Both OWC and Crucial have SSDs of about 1 TB capacity.

  • How much ram can you put in a Macbook Pro 7,1?

    I have what I thought was 2011 macbook pro, but when I just looked it up the 7,1 appears to be a 2010. Anyway, I want to max out the ram. OWC says you can put in 16GB of the DDR3 1066MHz SO-DIMM; here is the link: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/8566DDR3S16P/ Has anyone done this and does it work?

    If OWC says it will work, it will work.  The 2010 13" MBP can accept 16 GB RAM due to a relatively new firmware update.  Other 2010 MBPs cannot (still).
    Ciao.
    Carefull on the specifications!  They should be:  204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.

  • How much RAM can I put into my Macbook Pro?

    Here's my info:
      Model Name:          MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacBookPro4,1
      Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed:          2.4 GHz
      Number Of Processors:          1

    I want to upgrade my RAM, as the computer is showing a bit of age at 3 years old now.  I looked at this support page:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270#link8
    And judged the installation to be easy enough for me to do, but I'm confused as to how much RAM I can buy.  The conflict I see is that "Additional notes" says I can use up to 8GB of RAM, but the table says only 4GB.  What's throwing me off is basic math -- is that 4GB only referring to my slots (thus 4+4=8) or is it saying that anything over 4GB will not be recognized by my computer?
    I spoke with someone at Apple, but he seemed a bit confused by my question, and eventually gave me a "yes" that was timid enough that I felt the need to post here.  So, I'd appreciate the support!  Thanks a lot, everyone.  I'm just looking to not spend more than I need (in terms of buying excess RAM), and make sure I don't ruin my Mac in the process.

    The MacBook Pro 4,1 can acces a maximum RAM of 6GB
    However RAM comes in 4GB modules and you have two slots, so you install 8GB (two 4GB modules) and can only access 6GB of it according to MacTracker.
    Use the free Crucial.com site to make sure your getting the extact specified RAM specs, you can buy it anywhere if you like.

  • How much RAM can i put in my MacBook Pro 13inch?8GB or 16GB?

    I want to upgrade the RAM in my MacBook Pro and wanted to know how much is possible technically. I read 16GB are possible but Apple says 8GB optional.What is right?16GB or 8GB

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You have a Mid 2012 MacBook Pro. Apple says that it only supports 8 GB of memory, but the truth is that you can install up to 16 GB (2x8 GB) of memory on a Mid 2012 MacBook Pro.
    If you want 16 GB of memory, you can buy memory in OWC or Crucial (Crucial is cheaper and offers the same compatibility as OWC). If you need help installing memory > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1270#link1

  • How much RAM can I put in my Macbook Pro (late 2006), and how much will it cost me?

    I am currently running at a:
    2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
    2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM in Memory
    ATI Radeon X1600 256 MB in Graphics
    Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63) in Software
    & it's a 15inch Macbook Pro incapable of upgrading to Mountain Lion.
    I know i have a lot of limitations due to the age of this mac, but I would like
    to know as to how far I can go with the one that I have. Please help.

    Your MBP will be able to use a maximum of 3 Gb RAM.  The exact specifications are: 200-pin PC2-5300 (667MHz) DDR2 SO-DIMM.  Best sources are Crucial and OWC.  Their websites will have the prices.
    Snow Leopard is an excellent OS.  I have it on my 2010 MBP and have no intention of installing Lion/Mt Lion.  It is stable and efficient, more so than the newer ones.  Do not view that as a handicap.
    You might also consider installing a larger HDD.  Your MBP can handle the largest ones available to day (1 Tb).  For a pre-unibody MBP, it is a bit harder than the current crop but achievable of you have rudimentary mechanical skills and a bit of patience.  See the OWC website for excellent how to do it videos.
    Ciao.

    Although Apple states a maximum of 8 GB, OWC (macsales.com) has tested 16 GB, so if you want to install 16 GB, I'd go with OWC as they tested it and do guarantee their RAM to work with Macs.

  • What is the shortcut key to highlight words in adobe reader in macbook pro

    what is the shortcut key to highlight words in adobe reader in macbook pro?
    Shift + U is not working
    how can i change shortcut key?

    I don't believe there is a keyboard shortcut available for that feature. But I believe if you click-select the topmost chapter, and Shift-click the bottommost chapter, it should select them all.
    Other shortcuts for books can be set up in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts in the Panel Menus product area. There are no default shortcuts in that area.
