Can Install Two 8GB RAM (total 16GB) In IMac
Jul 1, 2012can I install two 8GB RAM (total 16GB) in my iMac? I have the early 2009 version of the iMac 24" 2.93 GHz intel core 2 duo. I already have 8GB (2x 4GB) 1066MHz RAM installed.I do very intensive photoshop art (the saved PSD files usually exceed 1GB, and while the document is open in Photoshop, it can exceed 5GB -- but of course PSD files cannot be saved over 2GB so I usually have to delete unused layers to reduce its size). I usually end up using more than 8GB of RAM for this (image files, with multiple layers, layer styles, etc, at 24,000 x 12,000 pixels of resolution, even in 8-bit 8GB of RAM is not enough).I need more RAM, but I do not want to buy a new iMac just for this.
I know the official maximum is 8GB (4GBx2) which is what I have, but I know that when this model was released, there were no 8GB RAM easily accessible. Now there is, for under $200.I want to upgrade to two 8GB sticks, to instease the RAM to 16GB, which would be exactly what I need.

MacBook Pro :: Upgrading From 8 To 16GB Of RAM
Jun 12, 2012I ordered a retina MacBook Pro base model. I figured I'd only need 8GB but then after I cast my order into the depths of Apple, I was thinking I should have got the 16GB upgrade. But on one hand, I was wondering if the RAM is user-replaceable or do they solder it on the boards now? I can buy another 8GB stick from a 3rd party.

MacBook Pro :: Will 16GB Of RAM Really Increase Speed
May 13, 2012I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro with 8 GB of RAM installed - I bought the Corsair memory from Amazon for under $50 and installed it myself. Amazon now has a 16GB kit fro Corsair for only $100 - the least expensive price I've found. The only RAM intensive app I really run is Photoshop CS6,but I do keep a lot of apps open at one time (Acrobat Pro X, Outlook, InDesign CS6, Illustrator CS6, Word, Parallels running XP, iTunes at the moment) and I was wondering if the extra RAM would actually help me out. I'm looking for some advice from people who have already upgraded to 16 GB... can you actually tell a difference?

MacBook Pro :: Max RAM In A 17" Late 2011 8GB Or 16GB?
Jun 12, 2012I just bought a late 2011 17" MBP with 4GB RAM (standard).Having upgraded to Adobe CS6 I am finding the machine impossibly slow, so I figure I need more RAM. Apple says max = 8GB (2x4), but Crucial Memory recommend 16GB "guaranteed compatible". I'm now quite unsure: can I really put 16GB in? Are Apple wrong? If Crucial have sold loads of 16GB kits that can't be used, surely they'd have taken it off their website? Can anyone confirm whether I can put 16GB (i.e. you've actually done it successfully).I'm running Lion 10.7.4

MacBook Pro :: System Running Slow - Need To Clean Install
Sep 13, 2009So I upgraded to Snow Leopard about a week ago, and my Macbook pro seems a little slower and it beachballs now and again. I am wondering if I should do a clean install of Leopard and use that for a while, until SL is updated a few times, or maybe clean install and then put SL onto that. Which do you think is best? My other questions are as follows:
I was doing TimeMachine backups when I was using Leopard, and these have carried on when I was using SL. If I clean install, will I be able to choose just to copy my files over from the TM backup? Is there a way to do a clean install of SL, or do I need to do the Leopard install and then upgrade to SL again.
MacBook Pro :: 16gb Memory Upgrade For 13" Early 2011?
Apr 28, 2012I run parallels a fair bit for research and my MBP is pretty slow. Took it to genius and he said to get a memory upgrade to 8GB. However, I'm reading everywhere that it can handle 16GB and the Crucial says it is compatible (only £100 ish for this so seems a pretty good deal). All well and good- but will this invalidate Apple care as the max Apple state it can handle is 8GB? Or.....is 8GB going to be enough anyway?Â

MacBook Air :: Different Screen And Build Quality Of Two Units?
Mar 11, 2008At the moment I have 2 MBAs at home and the displays are different. My first MBA had some build issues. So I called apple and they just sent me a second MBA. The second MBA's display lighting is much brighter especially at the edge of the screen. So the colours are worse and the black is not black any more. So I'm not sure what to do: I want the screen of my first MBA and the build quality of the second one

OS X :: Install CD Not Running
Jan 5, 2011I am new to Mac, have a 3 month old IMAC. I am trying to install a new Wacom Bamboo tablet. I put the CD in and nothing happens. If I double click the CD icon on the desktop, it opens and gives me 3 choices: install, program files, user manual. Then I click on install. nothing. Just a blank white screen. I have ejected the install CD several times and just keep getting the same results.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIMac :: RAM Upgrading To 16gb?
Dec 26, 2010I recently got a new iMac (3.6 i5, 21.5") and want to upgrade the RAM myself.
I would like to get it up to 16 GB, but the cost of me getting that laa at once is a bit prohibitive. Is it possible for me to get an OWC 8 GB kit now and then add two more 4 GB sticks at a later time, or do they have to be matched or paired in some way?
Also, the iMac shipped with 4 GB of ram (on 2x2 GB sticks I am assuming). If I got an 8 GB kit, would it be possible for me to just add the 2x4 GB sticks and have 12 GB of RAM while I wait for more $ to get the rest of the 16 GB?

OS X :: 7GB Dmg File Not Going On A 16GB Flash Drive?
Aug 11, 2009Ok it's like this, i recently bought my Mac and in preparation before i got it i stocked up certain apps i wanted on my Windows desktop, now I have a 7 GB dmg file that won't go on a 16GB flash drive and it's driving me crazy. I just don't know why it can't go, i re-formatted it and it still won't go.
Is there something I don't know about dmg files? are they actually larger than they appear, if not I need to find another means of transfering this file and all I have is this flash drive, no connector cables or anything like that.
OS X :: Booting Mac OS X From 16GB Flash Drive?
Aug 5, 2010So I recently purchased a 16 GB iamakey from Lacie. I saw in an article in MacLife how to install a stripped down version of OS X on it to use as a rescue tool. I partitioned the drive into a 2gb and 14gb sections. The 2gb i want to use as just a flash drive for toting files. I installed OS X on the 14 GB section. The installation completes, but when I try to boot in, I just get a gray screen. The mouse can be seen. What went wrong? I have done this twice following the instructions.
