Will iMac 2006 Intel Core 2 Duo, 5,1 - work with Mountain Lion?

That's all... will the iMac 2006 Intel Core 2 Duo, 5,1 model, run Mountain Lion?

No, you need a Mid 2007 iMac 7,1 or newer to run Mountain Lion.
see > Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.

  • MBPro 17 Intel Core 2 Duo Audio only works with the headphones?

    MBPro 17 Intel Core 2 Duo Audio only works with the headphones?
    There is a red light constantly emitting from the headphone socket?
    I can not listen to sound unless headphones are plugged in - when taken out I get a red light and the volume controls kets seem locked?
    Please help!

    Hi Kitty.
    Seems to be quite a popular problem. In another post, I posted the following.
    "The red light is the data signal that is transmitted if you plug in an Optical Audio device such as surround sound speakers. I had the same problem for a short while with my 17' MBP. Sound was working fine from my built in speakers but I plugged in some earphones to listen to something that I did not want the rest of the office to hear and after pulling the hearphones out, the optical signal (red light) was being transmitted. The switch Cessna is referring to is the switch that is triggered inside the port that tells OSX that earphones/optical audio device is plugged in and to shut down power to the built in speakers. When the device is un-plugged from that port, the switch should get triggered again and power up the built in speakers and disable the optical light signal. Perhaps there is the slightest defect on the earphones you are plugging in that are preventing it from triggering the switch when the earphones are un-plugged.
    Try a different sent of earphones to maybe trigger the switch if you are uncomfortable with the paper clip solution."
    That seemed to solve the problem for that user.

  • IMac G5 intel core 2 duo Mac OS 10.6.8 running slow

    iMac G5 intel core 2 duo Mac OS 10.6.8 running slow.
    It was bought over a year ago on eBay, and I don't have the original install discs.
    Recently simple tasks take ages and I see the spinning beack ball alot.
    I ran disk utilities, varified and repaired permissions, with the conclusion that there are errors and "disk needs to be repaired".
    Without the original install discs, is there anything I can do?
    Many thanks, Brion

    Hello K
    Thank you for that. It does make perfect sense. And I was quite surprised when the guy at Apple Care said that store bought OS discs are the equal equivalent of the original grey discs. However, I was also kinda relieved, because I have the Snow Leopard discs and I don't have the original grey discs, so at least I have a chance of fixing the problem.
    To clarify, I am not intending to upgrade the OS. The iMac originally came with 10.4. It was upgraded to 10.6 when I purchased it on eBay for £220. Now, 14 months later, after working perfectly well, it has developed some minor errors and has become sluggish. Running Disk Utilities, it seems the disk needs to be repaired by starting up from something other than the iMac harddrive. I had thought that meant the grey discs. But Apple tell me I can reboot from the Snow Leopard disk and repair the iMac that way. That isn't the same as ignoring the problem and reinstalling a new OS on a corrupt harddrive.
    BUT, I haven't done it yet. When I reboot from the Snow Leopard disc, I'm hoping I get more options then simply 'INSTALL'. Apple Care tell me that I will be able to navigate my way to Disk Utility. I hope they are right.
    Wish me luck, and thank you again for taking the time to help me out. I really appreciate it.

  • IMac G5 Intel Core 2 Duo - OS upgrade advice needed

    Im running an Apple iMac G5 Intel Core 2 Duo with OS Tiger 10.4.7.
    I am planning to upgrade to Leopard. However...I thought it would be as easy as just purchasing installation discs for Leopard. Now I find out that the install might not work on an Intel machine? Is this correct? Not as easy as just buying a 'OS Leopard box set' on eBay for example - do I have to actually make sure its OS Leopard Intel? Iv looked on eBay and THEY DONT SELL 'OS LEOPARD INTEL' DISCS!!
    Secondly - my girlfriend wants to use my old 'Install 10.4.7 discs' on her G3, Im guessing because they came with my Intel machine -that they wont work on a different machine? You can imagine Im quite wary of running a OS upgrade on another machine if its going to pear shaped.
    HELP!

    First an iMac G5 is not an Intel Core 2 Duo. You have either an iMac G5 PPC or an iMac Intel Core 2 Duo. That said, the retail disks for Leopard will work on either a PPC or Intel, so you should be good to go.
    Second your iMac machine specific disks will not work on another machine let alone a PPC. They are machine specific to your model iMac.

  • Will my MacBookPro3,1 Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz with 4GB Ram run Mountain Lion?

    Hi everyone. I have a MacBookPro3,1 Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz with 4GB Ram — will it run Mountain Lion? My hard drive has 615 Gigs of free space. If so, is it worth it for me to upgrade? Will all the new features be available to me. Presently I am running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53). I heard that there is an update 8.1 out there with developers as of yesterday.
    Thanks.

    Hi John.
    Yes, an erase and install sounds like a good idea. I just need to check my Adobe CS5 software to see if I need to upgrade the suite. If that is the case, then I may need to put it off for a bit. Thanks so much for your help.
    I have a newer MacBook Pro at work, but usually wait to upgrade it, till I've been running it at home on my personal computer for a while. Would hate for it to mess up my production schedule.
    Thanks again and have a good evening.

    Apple states that (of the MBP lines) it has to be from Mid/Late 2007 or later.  yours seems to be right on the line.
    Apple says
    If you are running Lion, you can find out if your current Mac qualifies by clicking the Apple icon at the top left of your screen, choosing About This Mac, then clicking More Info.
    you must also have the latest version of Snow Leapord or Lion

  • Will an older "Time Capsule" work with Mountain Lion?

    will an older "Time Capsule" work with Mountain Lion?

    It should do. Depends on how you define an 'older' TC. As long as your SW is up to date and the TC has relatively recent Firmware etc then there shouldn't be an issue.
    Are you having a problem with yours or just curious before you upgrade the OS?

  • IMac A1200 Intel Core 2 Duo question

    Greetings. I'm looking at the possibility of purchasing a iMac 24" A1200 Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.33 GHz, 2 GB RAM, 250 GB Hard Drive. Is there something about the A1200 that is making this a less desirable machine other than being manufactures in 2006/07? I will be using the iMac at home so some of the newer, faster features won't really matter to me.
    Thanks
    Ron

    Some of the 06-07 iMacs have an issue of multiple vertical lines showing up in the display. Often it takes 2 to 3 years for the issue to begin.

    Folks eventually can end up with 35 to 60 lines. Mine has about 50.

  • I am running OSX 10.5.8 on a 2008 Imac with  Intel Core 2 duo am I compatible with OSX 10.6 snow leopard, much less Lion and Mountain Lion?

    I want to link all my apple products so I can use icloud with ease but I am running OSX 10.5.8 on a 2008 imac with intel core 2 duo and not sure it's going to be beneficial or compatible. Is my desktop really just an external hard drive alreadt in 5 years? I just purchased a mac book pro 2012 and also have a 3Gs iphone I just want to have a happy apple family ; )

    Your computer is compatible with all of those OSes, but may need more RAM to run 10.7 or 10.8. As the RAM requirement is the same for both 10.7 and 10.8, don't bother with 10.7 unless you're using software incompatible with 10.8.
