Whats the most ram i can install in my macbookpro

whats the most ram i can put in my macbookpro

Depends on the vintage. Do not state your serial number here as that can be used for someone unscrupulous to tag onto your warranty and other information. Go directly to https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do and tell us what vintage. Or go to Google and search:
"MacBook Pro (vintage) specs support.apple.com"
Replacing vintage with the vintage the warranty page says your machine is without parenthesis, and taking out the quotes.

What is the most RAM I can put in mac book pro 15 inch 2.16(2006)?

What is the most RAM I can put in mac book pro 15 inch 2.16(2006)?

Depends. There were two version of the MBP that shipped in 2006 with different max RAM. The quickest way to see which is yours is to use System Profiler to get your Mac's "Model Identifier."
Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and, in the resulting window, click "More Info..." That launches System Profler for you.
The answer is in the first screen of Profiler that comes up--"Hardware Overview." Note the second line in this example:
If the Model Identifier says "MacBookPro1,X" you are limited to 2G RAM. Period.
If the Model Identifier says "MacBookPro2,X" you can install two, 2G modules for an installed total of 4G RAM, but the logic board can only access 3.2G of it. That becomes your "max RAM.
Hope this helps,

Whats the lastest software i can put on a macbook 2.2 GHz intel core 2 Duo. the software i have on the laptop right now is the Mac OS X (10.6.7)?

It would help to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
If it's the Late 2007 model 3,1 then 10.7 is the most that it can run.

TS1362 I am running windows xp with all the updates. I have an HP Pavilion with an AMD athlon xp-m processor. I have the most RAM I can install on this PC (1 gig). I also have plenty of disc space(over 60 gig). Why can't I play my .MOV files correctly.

I cannot get the .mov files I recorded on my I-phone 4 to play correctly( i.e. no audio, video jerky at best), on my HP Pavilion laptop with an AMD athlon xp-m, OS=XP, 1 gig ram, plenty of hard drive space >50 gig. Just not enough RAM or am I missing something? I have updated all I can(Quicktime, I-tunes etal). Any ideas?

My first thought when reading your post ( video jerky) is that the CPU doesn't have enough horse power? What is the GHz of the AMD athlon? 1.8 GHz would be right on the edge with video. And where the computer will max out at 1 Ghz of RAM indicates the laptop is older and the CPU probably as well. 1 GHz of RAM maybe low on today's computers but would not be an issue if the CPU was perhaps 2.8 GHz. The audio is less demanding by far on CPU's than video, so that could be a codec?

What is the max RAM I can have installed?

I have a MBP 13" that is running extremely slow and the dang pinwheel of death shows up all the time.
Can anyone tell me how much I can put in it? For that matter - what kind of RAM should I put in?
Thanks for all help.

I am back again. Hoping one of you brilliant people have any idea what this means: http://cl.ly/image/0t3P313g1u2o

You CAN run 10.7, but I don't advise it, buy the 10.6.3 upgrade disk from the Apple Store online and then backup files off the machine and upgrade to 10.6.3., then Software Update to 10.6.8 would be the BEST option for your older hardware and it will run most all of your 10.5 software and be faster than 10.5 or 10.7.
If you go to 10.7 it won't run nearly any of your 10.5 software and you will have to buy all new ones for a machine that's getting a little bit dated, near it's end of life stage. 10.7 will slow your machine down, especially with low RAM.

At your machines stage, the hard drive is getting old, the vents are clogged up with dust and it's going to cost a bit to get the drive etc upgraded. You can if you wish, but 10.7 really needs more RAM (4GB) and a faster hard drive.
But your still subjected to the video card going out etc.
IMO upgrade to 10.6.8 and stay there until the wheels fall off, then buy a new 10.8 machine being released after this summer or 10.9 machine.

What is the latest OS I can put on my iBook? 600 MHZ Power PC G3

What is the latest OS I can put on my iBook? Mine has OS X 10.3.9. It is 600 MHZ Power PC G3. It won't connect to my home wifi, so I need a later OS.

Thank you, I pass that test, but noticed on several sites that i need 256 MB for Tiger 10.4. I am not sure if this is true or not. Also, I am not sure where to find a download of the OS (can i download it on my PC, burn it, and use CD it to install?
Hi, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
I wouldn't mess around with a measly 128 MB upgrade (assuming that's what you have now). Instead of merely doubling the RAM, maximize it with a 512 MB module.

Good luck.

I got my cousin's old I-Pod as a gift, but when I hook up the I-Pod to my computer using the USB so I can put music on it, it doesn't register as being plugged in. What should I do?

I got my cousin's old I-Pod as a gift, but when I hook up the I-Pod to my computer using the USB so I can put music on it, it doesn't register as being plugged in. What should I do? I also cannot figure out how to change who's I-Pod it is. Can anyone help me out?

- I would try resetting the iPod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
and then try restoring it. This probably will not work but is worth a try.
- Next I would disconnect the iPod from the computer and let the battery fully drain. When drained, charge it for at least an hour then:
-- Try resetting it as above and see if iTunes will see the iPod. If it does, then restore the iPod.
-- If not in iTunes try placing the iPod in recovery mode to see if that make the iPod visible in iTunes. If it does then restore via iTunes
-- Last, place in DFU mode to see if that makes the iPod visible. If it does then restore via iTunes.

I have a late 2008, aluminum body macbook. I'm told 4GB is the most RAM it will take, but DMS says it will take 6GB. Can anyone clarify? Thnx

Yes, actually I talk about Digital editions. Do you know how to solve the problem as described in my first mail for Digital Editions? Thanks for your kind assistance.

I am still running OS x 10.5.8 what is the next step up and the easiest way to get it. Does the Genius bar have the capability to get me to the most recent software if I take my Imac in

iMac G5 - you are at the end of the line, though you may be able to upgrade your RAM, or hard drive.
iMac CoreSolo, CoreDuo - you can upgrade to 1 GB of RAM or 2 GB of RAM and get up to 10.6.8.
iMac Core2Duo - you can upgrade to 2 GB of RAM or more and get up to 10.7.2.
Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac to determine which Mac model you have.
Here's what you have to watch out for on 10.6 to 10.6.8.
Here's what you need to watch out for on 10.7 to 10.7.2.
Some stores may not have 10.6 installer CD available, or may not have 10.7 Flash drive available. For those you have to make the purchase from elsewhere,
and bring it in to the store with you. http://www.apple.com/retail has phone numbers for all their stores, and extension 5 often will get you a real person at the store, though if yuo don't get it, you might try a different extension.

What the most stable quality 4gb (2x2gb) memory for the P6n SLi Platinum?

Hi,
I'm looking for the most stable and very good quality 4gb of ram for the P6N sli platinum MB - what make does everyone recommend for this board?
I note that Kingston value ram is mentioned on the Approved list but I wanted something faster than the valueram?
Does anyone have either G.Skill or super talent and if so how do they work? Any other makes that you can recommend?
I know that there have been issue swith 4gb of ram for Xp/Vista 32 bit systems but from what I am reading hopefully the next bios should resolve this ...?
Thanks as this is the only item that's holding up my build now !

I don´t know whats the most stable 4GB solution is, I only can tell you, that I use Micron/Crucial mamory for years and never had any problems.
Actually in my new P6N-SLI Platinum are working 4 1GB dimms of crucial value ram ddr2-667 without problems.
There is a new bois version 1.22 for the platinum which solved the 4GB problem of earlier bios versions.
That was a bios problem and not a problem of the ram.
Manufacturer as Gskill on their GBHZ6400 modules and OCZ on their 1066 SLI modules are using the same Micron chips called D9GMH which are on my values.
They have great potential above the rated 667 speed. Cause i´m coming from germany and at the moment the prices of memory here are very cheap, a lot of people are thinking about upgrading their memory.
All what I read about here in germany G.Skill, Mushkin(very expensive), OCZ, A-data, TeamGroup are the most reliable rams
when it comes to high speeds and low latency modules.
At least I recommend the Crucial Ballistix ddr800 if you are not able to handle special settings in the motherboard bios.
And of course there are coming 2GB modules from most of the manufacturers, so you only need 2 modules for 4GB.
It´s your choice...
