ram

I just got my hands on a MacBook Pro mid-2009 thats in very good condition. I've decided to to upgrade it as much as possible (as per advice I've received on these forums) as it's very slow. Specs are: MacBook Pro 13" mid-2009 Processor 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Memory 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3...

Hello I did an upgrade of a Late 2012 Mac Mini and maxed the ram in it at 16. My husband has an Mid 2007 Mac Mini. The highest ram it would take is 4 (same as came out of my 2012). I was just wondering if anyone has tried putting ram from a newer model into an older one as described above...

Hey there, I have a question about new MacBook Pro 2017. To introduce my workflow, most of the time I do coding/programming (website related stuff). Then I create logotypes in Illustrator, some print related stuff in InDesign (business cards, flyers or banners 2x3meters), Photoshop + Sketch for...

With the advent of the new iMac Pro and the lack of user upgradeable RAM in those machines, will Apple remove this option for the next generation iMac as well? Obviously there's no way of knowing until the next generation comes along, but I'm having thoughts as to buying an iMac now, before it's...

I would like to increase the RAM in my iMac (it currently holds the standard 2 x 4GB cards with 2 empty slots). I have found some 16 GB cards for a good price and would like to increase the RAM to support my graphics programs. I know that it can only support 32GB (as per apple website). 1. Do...

I have an Early 2011 MacBook Pro 13" that runs well but has been a bit slower than I want it to be. A few years ago, I upgraded the RAM from 4GB to 8GB when I started using Adobe software regularly. I still have the stock 320GB Hitachi HDD. Forgive me if I am not clear, I am not very well versed...

Does anyone else notice bad RAM management on their iPhone X? Apps reload much more often than my 6s which had 1GB less RAM. I’ve watched comparison videos on YouTube and some Android phones are doing a better job than iPhone which is a shame since iPhone used to destroy Androids in this area...

I recently picked up a 2006 Pro (2.66), and the bottom RAM slot seems to not work. It has 8GB of RAM, 2 4GB modules. If I put both modules on one riser and mount it in the top slot, OS X recognizes all 8GB. However, if I have one on the top and one on the bottom, only 4 GB is recognized, and if...

Hello all! I have been reading forums with people who (are at least claiming to) have put 8gb of RAM in their 5,2 MacBooks. I want to do the same, but they also said something about an EFI upgrade. Has anyone else done this and can point me in the right direction? I just don't want to brick my...

RAM management is really bad on iOS 11. Apps reload multiple times a day, and I don’t have that many apps open. This is on a iPhone 8 Plus with 3gb RAM! What is going on?? Is it any better on 11.2 beta?

Hello! Needing some guidance on which upgrade to prioritize due to budget constraints. I have a mid-2012 13" MacBook Pro (non-retina, 4GB RAM, 500GB HD) which has become quite slow now - slow to open apps, search in finder/spotlight, open a new browser tab, etc. At first I was set on upgrading...

Hi. I have a MBP from 2011 (4GB of RAM, Intel i5 2.4GHz, Intel IGP 5000 graphics) Im having a serious slowdown problem recently, and was wondering if the RAM was the issue? Could this be it, or do I need to be looking into another source of the problem (Maybe need to clean the inside, etc.)...

Hi, I am awaiting my new iMac 27" which should arrive this week. I already purchased 64 gb of the recommended RAM ( https://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/2400DDR4S64S/ ). My question is, OPTION 1: Does it matter if I install the RAM upgrade 'before' I turn on the computer...

Hi. Just finished installing extra Crucial ram in my new 2017 iMac, but I'm a bit concerned about how much force was needed. I ended up pushing VERY firmly down using two finger, to the point there was a few very slight plasticky creaking nosies from the inside. I might just be being OCD with my...

I got brand new iMac 27 2017 today with stock 8GB, and ordered Mac certified crucial memory 32gb. When I try to boot up with both in (correctly installed) the iMac won't boot, when I put one or the other alone it boots as well. When I was running only 32 gb crucial the iMac suddenly shut down...
