1333 RAM in a MacBook 1066?

Hey all,.

Last week, I got 8 GB 1333 RAM someonei Elpida to upgrade 2GB 1066 in my white 2010 MB. However, when I put in, the computer issues only with the standby light flashes (RAM error (I think). I have seen on several other places that will RAM down the clock to your bus speed, and the RAM is certainly not defective (I took it out of the friend said 2009 MBP 13 "with a screen recently broken, and there he had worked perfectly for a while). Anyone know what is happening or how to fix it?

Thank you!

What is going on? It's the bad ram.

How to fix? Get the right ram.

Sorry to be so blunt but Mac need exact ram spec, yours is not close. It might work using a single original chip of 1066 MHz and 1333 MHz but a chip it is doubtful, and it can be unstable. It will not work using the modules faster ram, no way, no how.

  • How to get the new logic board with 16 GB of RAM for my Macbook Pro retina 15 mid 2012?

    1 month ago I brought my Macbook to the Apple Store Genius Bar to check the GPU because I was worried about small lines on a screen while playing games.

    After 3 days of test engineering guys gave her back to me and told me that there is nothing they can do in this regard, because was unable to reproduce the problem, but gave me an option - completely replace the logic board for 700CAD. At first, I said NO, but also asked them, if they can replace the logic board, but with 16 GB instead of 8 GB, I immediately. I'll have to pay the money anyway, right? Why not?

    Long story short - they told me that they cannot do and can replace the logic board with the same RAM mount my Macbook at the present time. Specialists support Apple tells me the same thing via Chat application on the Apple Web site. Funniest - none of them could give a reasonable answer why they cannot do so.

    It's the same logic board, with the same size, but with more RAM.

    I understand that they need to sell more laptops and, if I need more RAM, I can go and buy the new Macbook, but to be honest, as an International Student I simply don't have so much money.

    So why can't they do it?

    You deal with politics Apple and no one on these forums can do something for you, since we are like you, only users of Apple products.

    Consider selling your MBP and put money to one with 16 GB of RAM.

  • How can I update my processing power/RAM on my MacBook Pro 2013?

    Let me preface this by saying I know almost nothing about computers so please excuse my terminology.

    I have a screen Retina 13 '' MacBook Pro that I bought in 2014 (I think it was the 2013 model). At the time, I didn't need a lot of storage so I bought the less option (8 GB perhaps?). Recently, I changed into a main associated design and have been downloading a lot of different programs. With full download Adobe Creative Suite I have been using SketchUp, Rhino and AutoCAD to name a few.

    My projects often require me to work in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Rhino at the same time but when I do so my computer is extremely slow and sometimes one or more programs unexpectedly closes.

    Given all this information, what are my options to improve the speed and reliability of my MacBook?

    Your options are limited. You cannot upgrade RAM or CPU. Theoretically, you could install more storage, but I don't think that's worth it. Given the software that depend on you, I sell the MBP and buy something bigger and faster (not necessarily a Mac).

  • How can I increase the RAM on my MacBook Pro?

    I want to speed up my Mac Book Pro end 2008 performance. Can I get rid of many languages to free up memory, and this will do the trick? How can I do?

    You're talking about memory?

    Or the disk storage?

    Both can be increased. Get rid of unnecessary languages will not increase memory and will only increase a bit of storage available.

    To upgrade the memory see the following (8GB (2x4GB is max))

  • MacBook Pro RAM - higher than recommended

    I wanted to upgrade the RAM on my MacBook Pro 2009. Now, I looked on this website: MacBook Pro: how to remove or install memory - Apple Support on RAM specifications I needed for the upgrade of RAM.

    Now, I think I need Max it upward. My problem is that I saw on the store's site there are 1066 MHz PC3-8500 type of RAM, but they have 2 GB (I need to buy 2 to 4 GB). I looked for a kit of 8 GB or 4 GB (even once, I need to buy 2), but I found only the 1333 MHz PC3-10600. And one of my problem is that if I update these, there are problems of incompatibility on my MacBook Pro.

    My question is:

    You upgrade the RAM with specifications higher (as I mentioned earlier). If so, you are problems of incompatibility? If not, where can I get the specifications of RAM recommended (I live in the Philippines)?

    You cannot use faster Ram of your Mac, use the same speed (1066 mhz)

    And buy it from OWC or Crucial.

  • Adding RAM for MacBook Pro 13 inches without retina

    Hey,.

    I want to buy a MacBook Pro 13 inch without retina. The description says that I can buy the version with 4 or 8 GB of RAM, but I wish I had 16, at least. Is it possible to put a 16 GB of RAM on a MacBook Pro 13 inch without retina?

    Let me know, thanks!

    If this is the model of non-retine of 2012, then you can install 16GBs of RAM, but not by Apple. Then buy the 4 GB model then visit OWC to buy two 8 GB modules to replace the two accompanying him.

    Memory locations 2-204-pin PC3-12800 (1600 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM

    The above is for 2012 non - retina 13 "model.
