Where is the cheapest place to buy 8gb ram upgrade for my early 2009 iMac?

Where is the cheapest place to buy 8gb ram upgrade for my early 2009 iMac, I have bought before but current upgrade is causing mac to crash randomly!? Need to know a place I can buy Ram which is confirmed to work my my mac model, the current upgrade is working but Mac is very unstable.

I meant more reasonable priced than apple
That'll be almost anywhere else then!
Yes, if it is made by Crucial and confirmed as suitable for your model of mac you will be fine. You can also buy direct from Crucial:

  • Where is the best place to buy a replacement screen for late 2007 Macbook (3.1)?

    All,
    My screen needs to be replaced on my late 2007 Macbook.  I am willing to do the work myself, but need help in finding the correct model screen to buy.  Where would be the best place to buy?

    Depending on your geographical location, region, country, etc, part
    sources will vary. So this is an open question. An independent
    authorized Apple trained repair specialist or service facilitiy may
    be able to get the part(s) and do the service. That is an old MB
    and a regular Apple Store may be able to diagnose or estimate
    a repair cost; but it also could be too old for that route to repair.
    A best place to buy a part could be anywhere one is for sale;
    there are several online and some ship almost world-wide.
    If you are in north America, there are some who also may ship
    to other areas, but then there is shipping, taxes, duty fees, etc.
    You may be able to narrow down the part numbers and such
    by looking into online parts resellers, an example may be
    powerbookmedic.com, powermax.com, wegenermedia, etc.
    There may be a part number reference in iFixit.com guides.
    A service part such as main original hardware is more difficult
    than a replacement hard disk drive or optical drive. Availability
    varies, so without knowing where you are, I can't speculate as
    to that, or any price structure. Authorized repair centers may
    be found in the main online Apple links for service centers.
    Sorry to not be of much help

  • Where is the best place to buy memory card?

    Where is the best place to buy a memory card for my nokia n73?
    And what is the best brand to buy. Do 1gb memory cards work well for a nokia n72?
    Please reply,
    Thanks.

    Bought all my memory cards from mobymemory.com. Got a 1gb sandisk ultra II for £23. Next day delivery for orders before 3 too. Never had any problems and even ordered cards for friends phones. All very happy with price and quality.
    P.S. buy the name you know and one size bigger than you think you need. My 1gb has enough room for 300 mp3's or nearer 900 in nokia's format. If pictures are your thing should easy hold over 800 images on the highest setting.

  • Where is the best place to buy second hand iPhones?

    Someone said that Melbourne had the longest turnaround times for Apple service work. Let me tell you the guys at the St Kilda Apple Service Centre turned my job around in 2 days... but my question is where is the best place to buy second hand iPhones in Melbourne?

    There is no reliable place to buy any second-hand iPhone other than from someone you know personally. There is no way to know for certain that any iPhone you buy from a stranger isn't jailbroken, stolen, or reported lost and replaced (and hence probably blocked by the carrier). The only reliable place to buy an iPhone is from Apple or an authorized iPhone dealer.
    This is the iMac forum, by the way.
    Regards.

  • Where is the best place to buy the new ipad? Please help

    I am ready to buy a new ipad.  There is no apple store in my town but I will be close to one in a couple of days.  My town has Best Buy, Target, and Walmart.  Assuming I can find what I want... in case I have issues with it, where is the best place to purchase from??  (as far as ease of return, etc). Please advise.

    Dah*veed ..... I do not disagree with what you said about the AppleCare+ protection plan as it does state on the website that proof of purchase is required - IF ... You purchase over the phone. Actually, I did not expect to be able to do this over the phone, but as I said I received the paperwork today via email.
    I copied this from the website and I'm typing this on my new iPad so it may come out a little distorted but you can read the sentence at the bottom that says it can be done over the phone with proof of purchase. I gave the rep my serial number, confirmed my address and CC details and the deal was done. I even called back later in the day to make absolutely certain that I did in fact purchase the AppleCare+ plan that has the two incidents of accidental damage included for a $49.00 charge. The rep did in fact confirm that I did buy the correct plan that I wanted and I am looking at the printed paperwork confirming the whole thing.
    Maybe I just got lucky!
    iPad - AppleCare+
    Every iPad comes with one year of hardware repair coverage and 90 days of telephone technical support. AppleCare+ for iPad gives you two years of repair coverage and technical support from the original purchase date of your iPad. And it adds coverage for up to two incidents of accidental damage due to handling of your iPad, each subject to a $49 service fee.1
    How to get AppleCare+
    You must buy AppleCare+ within 30 days of your iPad purchase.
    There are three ways to buy:
    From the Apple Online Store: When you order the new iPad or iPad 2, you’ll have the option to add AppleCare+ to your cart before you check out.
    At an Apple Retail Store (requires a Genius Bar appointment, inspection of the iPad, and proof of purchase).
    By calling 1-800-275-2273 (requires proof of purchase).

  • Where is the Best Place to Buy Ram???????

    I'm looking to expand my ram from 2 gig to 4 gig and would like to get some recomendation about where or where not to go. I searched this Discussion and didn't find anything on this subject. Anyone have any good suggestions as far as price and reliability? Is there one place that is hands down the best?
    Thanks

    Apple uses 1.8v memory, that's what I'd get. There are tons of places that sell it cheaply online, and you can even get the exact Samsung that Apple uses for a reasonable price.
    I'll be trying a pair of Corsair Value Select 1G modules when my Quad arrives. I got them from Newegg, and they're going back if they're not 100% stable. That pair cost me about $140. Newegg has always been great for me.
    A simple place to get Mac RAM is OWC. Their OWC branded RAM is inexpensive, and guaranteed to work. They also sell the exact Samsung part that Apple uses, but it's about 50% more money.

  • Where is the best place to buy a new battery?

    I have a G4 PowerBook, 15", that needs a new battery. Where is the best placeto buy one?
    Does a new battery still require conditioning?

    I can't say for sure what the indicators of a reputable other source are.  That being said, there are lots of offers out there for batteries that are (take your pick) cheap knockoffs, actually used batteries that show up with many cycles reporting, batteries that do not communicate with the OS or SMU/PMU at all, etc.  There are anecdotal reports of batteries going kerplunk within months of shipping.  So, first make sure that the site is reputable.  Second, scour the web for references to the site to see is there are many "I got taken" posts.  Finally, search this discussion thread for "powerbook battery" and check for the anecdotal information I was referring to.
    As I noted above, I have been running an OWC battery for about a year now without a problem and I have had other good dealings with them.  You might ask in this thread if anyone has had good results or bad with a candidate vendor.

  • Where is the best place to buy iPad2 in Chicago/Illinois ?

    i have been getting up early everyday and going to apple store okabrook, woodfield, and northbrook and i still cant get an iPad. If you got an iPad2 in the Chicago area can you tell me the best way to make sure I can get an iPad2?

    Best place? It is purely random, timing, and luck. Any store you can find one is the best place right now unfortunately due to the high demand. Me, I'd be doing the rounds to every Apple, AT&T, Wal-Mart, Target, every day in the hopes I walked in at the right time.

  • 8GB Ram Upgrade for 27" iMac (Not Quad Core)

    Hey guys, I have an iMac 27", not the quad core though. I want to know, what is the best UK retailer to buy 8GB of Ram for my iMac. I have 4GB at the moment, and I want to run FCP, and After Effects more efficiently, speed up Render time etc.
    Where can I buy some from a shop that could be found in the Trafford Centre, so Curries/PC World , The Apple Shop, Selfridges, etc.
    Any ideas about how much it would cost?
    Also how much more would 16GB of RAM be?
    Is it easy to install?
    Thanks guys
    -Bob

    Surf to http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple/memory/iMac and find the correct memory for your iMac.
    OWC ships worldwide.
    Good prices. Not the lowest, but their service is worth it.

  • 8gb RAM upgrade for 2012 13" MacBook Pro?

    I have a 2012 13" i5 2.5GHz MacBook Pro with 4GB of RAM running Yosemite. I'm considering upgrading to 8GB and was wanting to ask how much difference will it make to my computer's performance. The apps I use most are safari, iPhoto for RAW photo editing, iTunes, Xcode, Mail, Calendar and Pages. I'm also going to be using GarageBand soon. I would like to be able to use several of these programs at the same time. Would you say it is worth the upgrade?

    About OS X Memory Management and Usage
    Using Activity Monitor to read System Memory & determine how much RAM is used
    OS X Mavericks- About Activity Monitor
    Adding RAM only makes it possible to run more programs concurrently.  It doesn't speed up the computer nor make games run faster.  What it can do is prevent the system from having to use disk-based VM when it runs out of RAM because you are trying to run too many applications concurrently or using applications that are extremely RAM dependent.  It will improve the performance of applications that run mostly in RAM or when loading programs.

  • Where is the best place to buy an iTunes Gift Card?

    When I purchased an iTunes Gift Card at a Wal-Mart store, the cashier scanned the card (like any other item), instead of sliding it, and I paid for it. When I got home to redeem it, iTunes said this message: "The Gift Certificate or Prepaid Card code you entered has not been activated. Please return to the original point of purchase for assistance."
    Luckily, I had the receipt, and, after lots of arguing, was able to get a new card (the cashier said that she slid the card), and when I entered the code, it worked.
    How are cashiers supposed to activate iTunes Gift Cards? Do they scan it, or are they supposed to slid the card like a credit card?
    Where can I buy a Gift Card without getting, "The Gift Certificate or Prepaid Card code you entered has not been activated. Please return to the original point of purchase for assistance."?
    I've seen some cards in which there is no black bar for sliding the card; instead, there's just a barcode under a window. How are those activated? By just scanning it?

    dlee--
    Usually, WalMart's pretty good with gift cards. Usually. (Stuff happens, okay? )
    Anyplace that carries them is usually pretty good, especially if you have your receipt. In my area, Safeway and Albertsons are pretty good. I also have a Mac Store (NOT an Apple Store, but carries Apple products) that's good, and Best Buy is also good.
    Hope this helps--
