what ram do i get for my MacBook 3,1?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You have a Late 2007 MacBook, that uses 667 MHz DDR2 RAM. Officially, it supports 4 GB of memory, but you can install 6 GB of memory. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1651#link3
If you want more memory, you can buy the memory in OWC or Crucial (Crucial is cheaper and offers the same compatibility warranty as OWC) > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/

What RAM do I need for my macbook?

I have been told that it may only support up to a max of 2gig, but have also read that a lot of people have put in 4gig and its work fine.
And is it just any DDR2 SDRAM that I can buy? (im not too clued up on ram types)
So this is what I have....

You need PC5300 DDR2 667MHz So-Dimm modules for your MacBook. If you want to maximize your RAM, you can put in a 4GB Kit (2 x 2GB) and you will be utilizing approximately 3.3 GB of the RAM. Needless to say, even if you get a 2GB Kit (2 x 1GB) you'll be doubling the amount that you have now which will be a substantial increase.

What upgrades should I get for my MacBook pro for video editing?, What upgrades should I get for my MacBook pro for video editing?

Hi,
i am a student and I will use my MacBook pro to edit my movies, I will go to a film school and I think the preview of my previous works has to be professionally done. But I don't know what upgrades should I get to make the editing smooth, and have enough storage.

as an hobbyist on a shoestring budget, but with the head in the sky, based on my own experience:
8GB Ram is ok, 16GB is nice
most important, aside 'skills': …
<voice of Steve Balmer> ext HDD, ext HDD, ext HDD, ext HDD!!!
I'm handling here 4k material on a MacMini, which doesn't even have a dedicated GPU. In Multicam.
Distribute your materials on several hard drives, make a plan first, before editing, what & where, you get instantly messy and lost without a plan.
What mentioned before: back ups! I'm not shy using a 99€ Raid0 (=two 2.5" drives + Disk Utility's feature, to create 'software raids' ) - Raid0 are NoGo for pros, 'cause it doubles the chance to 'crash' - no prob for me, having my backups - inconvenient to reload everything - but I'm no News Room
For professional 'look' care for the other stuff :
tripod with 'fluid head', lights, more lights, ND filters set, ext. microphone(s) at last a shotgun and a lav, ext audio recorder (I'm abusing my ol' iPhone4 and a tiny box called iRig, which offer XLR connector), did I mention lights? , a good bag and a waterproof, lockable aluminium box, soft boxes for light, maybe a shoulder rig (starting at 80€), 200sq ft of some green cloth for green screening (if your school doesn't offer a 'studio') FCPX does marvel with even really bad lighted green screens, those handy foldable 'brighteners'/reflectors, to bounce light ('Rembrandt lightning') … finally tons of odds and ends, starting with gaffer tape, ending with SDcards ...
And DO things, try things, play with your stuff, make experiments just for the trash bin!
Enjoy your film school (I'm envy… )

What display should I get for my macbook pro?

Hey Guys. I think this is in the correct section.
So I have a Macbook Pro (specs at the bottom) and I am looking to add an external monitor to use as a second monitor and at other times a screen for my playstation. I have never had a monitor before so not sure how big? What resolution? What ppi? HD, UHD, 4K? Someone said something about refresh rate. I have no idea what that is. None of this stuff I know.
Obviously I want the best screen I can have and I would connect my Macbook to it by HDMI using a Thunderbolt to HDMI converter and connect my ps3 to it by HDMI.
What is the highest resolution a HDMI/Thunderbolt can handle?
What screen should I get?
Also I connected it up to my TV once and if I put my mouse at the bottom of the screen and then moved it onto my macbook screen it disapeared and didn't appear again until I moved it up and I don't want this problem
How can i solve this?
All help is very much appreciated.
Thanks. Miles.

The apple thunderbolt display is £900 which to me seems an extremely large amount of money to spend on a display ?

The important thing to do is make sure you get ram from a reliable, Mac-friendly source as Macs are very sensitive to their ram. Two good sources are Crucial and OWC, http://www.macsales.com both will tell you just what ram you machine will take and guarantee compatibility and give a lifetime warranty. And they have on-line videos on how to install.

What monitor should I get for my Macbook Pro?

I have a 2012 Macbook Pro
I want to get an external monitor
What spec monitor should I get?
The only thing I'm worried about is getting the correct connection
I'm assuming I want a monitor that will take DVI connection
ALSO: would I need to buy a DVI connector - would the monitor come with this?
Aside... are there any specific (non Apple) monitors that are widely used by everyone?
I read another thread and there where a few names pop up like a Dell model
Thanks
Omar

thanks for the reply
i was looking at this model: http://benq.co.uk/product/monitor/gl2450hm
i choose this one because it had a response time of 2ms
other monitors have a response time of 5ms
i assumed this would mean fast action graphics would display better?
any thoughts?
(+ this is £120 on amazon - others are roughly £140 starting price)
ALSO... does it matter what i connect to - DVI or HDMI?
is one better than the other?
i already have a hdmi connector... so am assuming i will be ok with this and not bother with dvi?
thanks

What DVI cable to get for new Macbook

i have recently bought a macbook. i want to connect it to my HD tv, i have recently bought a DVI cable to connect them, it was the Apple - Video adapter - mini-DVI (M) - HD-15
However the cable did not fit inside the port in which it was supposed to.
Could someone please help me find the correct DVI cable for my new macbook containing a MiniDisplay Port.
Thankyou for your time

Apparently you purchased an adaptor for a Mini-DVI port, but you need one for a Mini-DisplayPort.
If you are connecting to a TV you probably should get an adaptor for Mini-DisplayPort to HDMI and an HDMI cable to go from the computer to one of the HDMI ports on the TV.

What ram should i get for a neo-fis2r mobo

im building a new system and i was wondering what is the best ram for gaming in this mobo.
Thanks,
Infern09

don't go with cl2 becouse this mobo hates it and instability will never end
and don't go with HYPERX pc 3500 its like & it really sucks
go with CL2.5 it is the best CL with this board
if you overclock they will tell you go with higher pc like pc3500 , pc3700
thats a big wrong, any thing higher than pc 3200 sucks
pc 3200 o'c like hell
and forget about HIGH & TIGHT timming it really doesn't matter just go with larger
capacity
thats what i learned with this board after spending alot of $$$$ on RAMS
GOOD LUCK any way

What kind of external drive should I get for my macbook pro for backups etc

what kind of external drive should I get for my macbook pro for backups and storage

Hi, i have a Mercury Elite-AL Pro from OWC, www.otherworldcomputung.com
this is the one;
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/MEAQ7S1TB32M/
have had this for over two years, moved around a lot with the drive, ( to date ) no problems, they have good after sales support; give them a call if you need info.
There are a lot of drives out there as others here will let you know, there are good NAME drives but they also fail, POPULAR drives also fail, select the one you are happy with for your system and how you plan to use.
i suggest if $ is not a problem get a big drive you will find someting to put on it and is better.
hope this helps.

You stumbled on a Mac Tower forum, not notebooks.
If you are running 10.6.8 then you must have bought it 3-4 yrs ago?
Might want to check the specs and then look at various programs and their requirements as to whether Final Cut Express and ah, you want to import media to an app, not "upload."

How much RAM should I get my new MacBook installed with?

How much RAM should I get my new MacBook installed with? I'm planning on getting a new Macbook sometime this fall. I'll probably be a light user, mostly internet, email, and your occasional Letter/Envelope.
Are their any other options that I'll want to make sure that I get?
Oh, and this will also be my very first Mac.
Thanks,
Jeff

In the link Alvin Ray posted it shows the different configurations that can be used in RAM. Officially Apple states that the MacBook supports 2 GB Ram. It can hold 4 GB but only uses 3 GB. The 4 GB would only benefit the matched pair use for optimum graphics. Unless you do a lot of very graphic intensive work 3 GB should be fine.

What's the best SSD for a Macbook Pro 13" Mid 2010?

Hello.
I will upgrade my 2010 Macbook Pro. I need to know what's the best SSD for my Macbook Pro. I was thinking about those:
- Kingston SSDNow V+200 (SVP200S37A/120G) - 120 GB
- CRUCIAL SSD M4 128 GB
- CORSAIR SSD Force Series GS 128 GB
- SAMSUNG SSD 840 Series Basic 2.5" - 120 GB (MZ-7TD120BW)
- CRUCIAL SSD interno Crucial v4 - 128 GB
Those are the easiest to find on Portugal.

It is my understanding that SATA III is backwards compatible to SATA II so that should not be an issue for your selection process.
As an aside, you might be interested to know that your MBP can now have 16 GB RAM installed.

What is the best skin for new Macbook Air 13"?

What is the best skin for new Macbook Air 13"?
I have a new Air and want to protect it from scratches and such.
Thanks in advance

Sorry, I don't like "skins". They inhibit the heat transfer necessary to keep your MBA cool. Get a soft or hard case to store it when not in use. I like Speck products.
Just take care of it. Battle scars make it uniquely yours.

Which model of memory upgrade should I get for my MacBook Pro early 2011 model? I now have 2 - 2GB modules.

Installing RAM in a 2011-2012 MacBook Pro
There is really only one way to install RAM into a 2011-2012 MacBook Pro and while there are hundreds of DIY videos online, I just like this one, found on YouTube, by “macmixing”.
Note that there is a difference in the RAM that should be used in 2011 and 2012 models.
2011 models must use:
•204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
And 2012 models must use:
•204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
So here's the video:
Remember that the 13", 15" and 17" 2011 models (early or late) and the 13" and 15" mid-2012 non-Retina models can handle 4GB, 8GB or (unofficially, but, believe me, it works) 16GB of RAM. There are, in my opinion, only two 100% Mac-compatible vendors out there: Crucial and OWC. I really can't recommend any other brands, even though it may work, as these are the only brands that I've personally used in quite a while. Also remember to stay away from any RAM that is a “value” brand - Macs are picky about RAM and often these value RAM modules just don’t work very well.
Good luck,
Clinton
