• Question about webcams with Macbook Pro 13-inch, mid 2010

  Bear with me as I am the most fundamental basic Mac users. I am currently using a MacBook Pro (13-inch, mid 2010) with OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 I don't use Skype or FaceTime or something like that. Recently, I joined an online course in which they said I need a webcam, headset and microphone so that I can communicate with my instructor and discussions in class.

  I have really no idea what hardware inside is on my laptop. Is the built in camera something that could be used for this purpose? Or do I need to buy these separately three elements to make this work? And if yes, are you easy to install and can anyone recommend something good, but also low-cost as possible.

  Thanks in advance for your time.

  Your built in FaceTime, camera is sufficient. This is the idea. outdoor cameras are mostly a thing of the past. If the internal webcam is broken, an external is always an option repair vs.

  You may need their proprietary software to connect to their course however

  Forget the RAM Kingston and return it for a full refund, if you can.

  Spec'd correct., tested and reliable Mac RAM DO can be bought online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory, directly from the site Crucial (crucial.com) or OWC (macsales.com).

  Already mentioned several times in this post of the thread.

  Any other RAM from other sources and manufacturers (except OWC or Crucial) is questionable, at best.

  Good luck!

• Speakers JBL Xtreme works no not with MBP mid-2010. Any advise?

  Everyone knows the same problem? All solutions?

  I like sound from the loudspeaker (when it works).

  Please, any advice or information would be useful.

  = The ISSUE =.

  Question:

  My JBL Xtreme temporarily (several times a day) stops playing all the sounds of my MPB mid-2010. Requires to completely restart the Xtreme to resume playback.

  
  

  Question is this:

  (1) once the Mac will several minutes without reading sounds.

  (for example, problem will NOT happen 'in the middle' of a video or a song, or between several consecutive videos).

  (2) into two entities (a purchased in 12/03/2015, then replaced by the new JBL 07/05/2016 customer service unit).

  (3) using the two separate cables headphone (2' and 6').

  Issue disappeared:

  (1) temporarily when full restart JBL Extreme (question returns a few hours or minutes later); A full restart of Mac does NOT help.

  (2) when you disconnect from the JBL speaker and plug into speakers of simple (not firmware) separate non - JBL, these speakers JBL - no play the sounds as expected. Thus, Mac 'seems' to send the correct signals via its headphone port.

  Video to reproduce the problem:

  https://Vimeo.com/165709269

  JBL customer service response:

  (1) ' we have not all the comments of any bug or any update would be necessary for the Xtreme. " For now, I would recommend that you contact support for your Mac. »

  But the Mac works well with the JBL - no speakers. So, I think, the Mac is OK. But don't know if its signals is compatible with the firmware on the JBL speakers.

  2) "the speaker goes into sleep mode to save battery".

  But the Xtreme is plugged into the wall power (all 5 white lights are always one of them flashing). So, save the battery life is not a problem.

  It is OK to go to sleep. But it should not require a full reboot to wake up.

  For example, while surfing the web I find and read a video, minutes later I find another video and need to restart the JBL to read.

  As it is, I'm turning it back on about 10 times a day.

  Each time, the Xtreme gives a) unpleasant 'surprise' unpredictable doesn't have to read the sound, b) chime sounds to feed top down and c) not long.

  This isn't a normal acceptable behavior.

  Possible causes:

  I think that, perhaps, JBL Xtreme would have some power save mechanism, so pregnant properly go to sleep (when he gets is not sound signals of Mac for a few minutes). However, when CV, sound signals, JBL Xtreme fails to wake on his own (because some bug in the JBL firmware). Thus, it requires a full restart.

  The question is perhaps only with tones of mid-2010 Mbps?

  Any other cause could explain the symptoms?

  Set up:

  (1) JBL Xtreme is connected to the Mac using telephone head, connected to the power supply plug, the latest version of the firmware 5.8.

  (2) mac Book Pro mid-2010 is running latest OS X (ElCapitan 10.11.4).

  (3) other devices in the House (5 s to iPhone and iPad) have Blue tooth OFF.

  =====================================

  Update: a workaround is to connect through Bluetooth instead of the headphone cable.

• I need to upgrade my Mac (MacBook white unibody mid 2010) with a SSD (and iMac mid-2010) and the RAM and SSD

  I need to upgrade my Mac (white unibody MacBook mid-2010) with a SSD (and iMac mid-2010) and the RAM and SSD: I look to buy upgrades site Crucial and OWC site and there is a little difference, in terms of money: it's better to buy the Crucial site or OWC site.

  They have good tools to find compatible parts for your Mac models.  The OWC took is here

  http://eShop.MacSales.com/MyOWC/

  OWC tends to have the most detailed information on the Mac.  If I look to the top of the part to OWC and review specifications.  OWC offers often information based on the Mac-specific tests.  If Crucial offer something similar for a substantially lower price, buy it from Crucial.  I'm sure they have a refund is not political, if a part they say is compatible.  I bought the RAM and SSD both Crucial and OWC.  From my experience, be it high quality.

  For the 2010 iMac, OWC also offers a "kit" (with the tools and support) to replace the hard drive of 3.5 inches with a 2.5-inch SSD.  Eventually, if it's a 27-inch iMac, I think that you can Add the SSD instead of replace the hard drive.  And they have self-produced how-to videos on the process, related to many of their lists of products.  OWC provides a lot of information with added value and service for Mac users.

  OWC also offers kits to replace the optical drive on some Macs (including MacBooks) with an SSD (as a secondary internal drive).

• Update the iMac 21.5 mid 2010 "with SSD

  Hi - I am interested in upgrading my iMac 21.5 mid 2010 "with an internal SSD. Have been reading the posts on the subject and I wanted to clarify a few points. As I understand it, there is not a spare drive Bay, so my options are to replace the existing drive, or replace the optical drive.

  My questions are:

  (1) is there a difference in meaning in performance in both options?

  (2) the location of the optical drive is a stable position (physically) to put a SSD?

  (3) if it is placed in the location of the optical drive, I'll be able to boot from the SSD drive?

  (4) I read that if you replace the hard drive, there is also a problem with a heat sensor that fans end up running a full speed, and you must download a software workaround solution, or get a special thermal sensor OWC. This applies also to put it in the optical Bay? Why or why not, and if not, is the drive always properly cooled? Not sure I quite understand that part.

  Thanks for any help,

  David

  I added an SSD for my iMac 2011. It has an extra SATA port, so I could leave the optical drive in place and put the SSD in behind it, while keeping the original HARD disk too.

  I think that 2010 models do not have this port, but the other World Computing would be able to confirm this on their site based on the available kits.

  1. you won't see any difference in performance in both positions. Note, the 2010 iMac uses ports SATA 3 G, so if you use a 6G SSD, it will only run at 3G speeds. Willl you always get a huge performance on the old HDD even gain at this slower speed.

  2. Yes, to use the available kits

  3. Yes the installer once you define which drive you want to boot from in system preferences > startup

  4. I think it's only valid for 2011 models, but still OWC kits will show if you need the adaptor cable. It does not apply in the optical drive. Cooling still works correctly if you use the kits to correct or additional software.

  Edit: just check out OWC, it seems that the thermal cable adapter is required for this model

  Edit 2: If you have never worked on electronics, I strongly suggest that you do not open the iMac yourself. If it is not particularly difficult if you are experienced, it is very easy to break something if you do not have this experience.

• iMac 21 inch mid-2010 with OSX 10.9.5 4 GB

  Have inherited an inch Imac 21 mid-2010 with OSX 10.9.5 running - I don't know much about Mac computers so no idea if snow leopard etc or what!

  This iMac is not iCloud drive available to sync with the latest iPhones etc.

  Is it possible to upgrade the operating system on this iMac to run the latest apps & iCloud etc.

  Don't really know where to start...

  Thank you

  You have OSX Mavericks. The next OS is Yosemite 10.10 and 10.11 El Capitan.

  You can upgrade the free OS for Mac by the opening of the App Store on the computer. When you click on "Updates", there is a large window which shows the next OSX update for your computer.

  On a computer from 2010, the most recent operating systems may appear slower. It really depends on the State of your hard drive and also the RAM. With 4 GB of RAM, you shouldn't have a problem (every BONE just 2 GB). However, and the older hard drive may have trouble keep in touch with the requirements of the operating system, which makes the computer slower.

  The best thing to do is to make a backup of data is installed on the computer, then just go for it. Worse comes to worse you can always restore the computer with the back facing upwards.

  What I would do is to backup your data on an external drive,

  Restart the mac while holding the ⌘R until the apple logo appears and wait until the boot process is completed. It may take more time to start.

  Once in recovery mode select your preferred language, click on update or reinstall a copy of OS X., select your drive and wait for the process to do. (Also click on continue and accept all that)

  One time did Shutdown and finished reinstall then start in recovery mode again (⌘R) and then click on restore Time Machine backup and then use the backup that you have saved on your external drive. Do you know how to use time machine to back up data in system preferences?

  Best regards

  A
