• Envy 15-K208NL: sales assistant in store claims to have 32 GB of RAM on Envy 15-K208NL: true?

  Hi all
  I'm a programmer and I need a laptop that supports 16 GB of RAM for a CMS very hungry memory that I use.
  Today I went in a PC shop and I saw the 15-K208NL. He's got i7, 8 GB of RAM and it is not too expensive. I asked the saleswoman in store if the laptop support for 16 GB of RAM. HP computers are expandable to 32 GB of RAM with 4 locations of memory, he said.
  I was happy to hear that; However, when I went to the HP page on this very laptop to double check (http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c04738934), I read that there is only 1 x 8 GB RAM memory and there is no mention of a slot free or memory maximum. So I'm undecided to buy it or not.
  Anyone can help this memory - hungry computer owner?
  Thank you!

  Hi, Riccardo:

  Here is the link to the service manual for this model.

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04582332

  Chapter 1 gives the news of upgrade memory (max is 2 x 8 GB).

  The memory of the removal and replacement procedures are provided in Chapter 6.

  It is very difficult to access any of the components upgraded on this machine.

  If you need a laptop with 32 GB of memory, I suggest you watch in a business class mobile workstation that would probably support for 32 GB of memory and a decent graphics card.

• A new Mac better W7

  First of all, I'm not a geek so please answer in the simplest language possible and assumed that I know nothing. Thank you.

  I use a 24 "iMac with 2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo and maxed out at 4 GB Ram Mac OS x 10.6.7. I looked ay my monitor activity and when VMWare Fusion 3.1.2 running W7 and Quicken Home and Business 2010, I see too little as 35 MB RAM fresh. Does this sound right? On the side of Mac I have Mail, Safari, a weather program, Mobile Me automatically synchronize and backup of my time Machine. Here are the apps that run in normal time and not always together.

  Most of the time, when I use VMWare, the icon in my dock spends a lot of time with the clock that and round and I see the symbol of Mac I call spinning pizza arise. When I try to force quit, I see not reponding to VMWare, but wait quite a long time, and finally, he interrupts or restarts.

  Issues related to the:

  (Caveat: I don't download a lot of videos, to work with a lot of graphics or music.) "I'm just an old geezer who uses the Net, turning under W7 and Snow Leopard 10.6.7 Quicken and could do some HTML editing now and then on side Windows because that's where I learned to make a web page.)

  With my Mac presents, I also asked a lot of VMWare?

  Is there a routine that I can use to mitigate this agonizing slowness or reaction to commands?

  If I get a new Mac is there than an iMac 21.5 "offered that has processors more Rapids that will be beneficial for me.

  Should I maximum 16 GB RAM in the new Mac to ensure the speed and a good performance?

  Can anyone recommend exactly what iMac I should get (Lion impatient) after seeing my use?

  Thanks a lot for trying to interpret these issues.

  To begin with, I would say that the best way to restart your mac before taking action. If you read the Apple article, he should have explained that the memory types reported on the activity monitor and it says that the page breaks are when the operating system must write RAM hard disk. The reason for this is that because one or more of your tasks running request more memory than is actually available for the operating system is accommodating moving pieces slowed down older code and memory on your hard drive, thus making space for RAM your app. Mean Go 13.97 from page breaks it is since you last started your mac, he had to write a total of 13,97 GB of RAM (memory) on hard disk (swap). This means that applications running on it are passed, since the last start of your mac more than 4 GB per 13,97 GB (added upward over time). So, my recommendation is to restart your mac and after you login, start the activity monitor (keeping it sorted by real memory) and one by one load your applications and see where the page-outs start to happen and keep track of this process were on top before and after each application that you are running is.

  You vm doesn't use too much memory, but combined with her as well as other applications that you are running can make your hungry computer memory. Once you have all your page-out running applications will tell you how much your short on memory (if you are, that is).

  Also remember that when loading/suspension/stop a virtual machine, this is disk intensive operations. So for example, if your mac is backup (synchronization of time machine) the same time you are launching or recovery of a virtual machine its will take longer time to complete, because both of these operations are producing on a single disc and he doesn't have a head that goes with fury back to satisfy the two processes running.

  I hope that helps.

  You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

  When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
  -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

  You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

  1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
  2. click on the System Restore tab.
  3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
  4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
  5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

  You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

  Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

  -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
  -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
  -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
  -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
  -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
  -Click OK.
  -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
  -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

• Please advise a computer artist from novice about requirements for large files in PS?

  I am researching my next computer.

  I'm an artist currently using CS2 to rework my paintings into prints.

  http://s719.Photobucket.com/albums/ww198/blueridernz/Rachel%20Thompson%20Portfolio/?albumv iew = slide show

  The paintings have been digitized in high resolution and are 500 MB.

  Image files I work with are large, but the process is simple, I'm extracting and collages.

  Nothing too technical here.

  As I need to print large, 9' x 4', the end result file could be 2 GB which I understand is the limit for PSD files.

  I'm not games or editing video, just files work with large images.

  What I've read I think I need

  Core i7

  Game 12 of 3 GB RAM

  GeForce GTX 460

  Any advice appreciated,

  Rachel.

  The graphics card is perhaps a little exaggerated, if you paint really just and retouching in PS. A less hungry and less expensive model power would do the trick. The rest should do just fine, but remember that it will not do much good if you don't get a 64-bit operating system and may also upgrade CS5 to make use of all these resources. You might not even be able to install CS2 on Windows 7...

• Unable to Scan to the computer after downloading macOS Sierra. Is this a software problem?

  How can I scan from HP Envy 4500 to computer after downloading macOS Sierra?

  Hello wdemetris,

  Thanks for asking for scanning helps here in the Apple Support communities. I understand how it is important to have access to your scanner and am happy to offer help for this.

  As a precaution, we always recommend that you have backups to make sure that all your data is safe. You can perform a backup using Time Machine and an external hard drive. Use this article to help make a backup of your Mac: use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac.

  Then, in accordance with article help: printer and scanner for Sierra, El Capitan, Yosemite, and the Mavericks macOS software, the HP Envy 4500 e-all-in-one is supported for printing and scanning. The drivers must be installed, but if not, if it please go to the App Store and check the updates tab to see if there are updates for HP. If there is, please install.

  If you have only general questions about how to get your updated scanner in place or how to scan pictures, please check out these two articles: macOS Sierra: implement a scanner & macOS Sierra: scan images or documents. If everything is configured correctly and you still have problems scanning, please visit this help article: macOS Sierra: scanning troubleshooting.

• I clicked on a link on my computer.

  I clicked on a link on my computer. I've got Yosemite 10.10.5. I now get location of verification questions to an address that according to me is the one I opened upwards. Does that mean I have a virus and what should I do?

  It is probably just to ask your location and is not a virus. Try going to System Preferences/security & privacy / confidentiality, unlock the lock and see if there is a box you can uncheck which stops applications. Safari is probably the logical choice.

• Deleting emails, mail approx. records even Clears Yahoo on computer?

  Given that the content of Mail takes a lot of space, I want to delete a large number of emails and files (the same that exists on Yahoo mail). I just want to be sure that their deletion on the mail app won't also erase them from Yahoo on my computer.

  Hey CloudsRestWalk,

  Thank you for being a part of the communities of Apple Support.

  I see that you're wondering about the impact of the removal of the mail files on your e-mail account.  Everything depends on whether or not the mail files are saved on your Mac, or if they are part of Yahoo.  In the Mail sidebar, you should see the label above the folder list.  If she says "on my Mac" then the emails in that folder are stored on your Mac, and delete the folder should not affect what you see on the webmail of Yahoo.  On the other hand, if the label says "Yahoo" then the folders are on the mail server itself, and remove them will remove them from Yahoo email servers.

  For assistance with freeing up storage space, then take a look at the information in this link:

  Mail for Mac: free up the storage space for an e-mail account

  Take care.

• How to transfer a project from one computer to another file

  Hello

  In order to burning a DVD on my laptop that is older, I'm trying to transfer a working from a library folder and insert it into another on the old computer. I used a USB key. All the data has been transferred, but how do i:

  1) enter a library on the old computer? I DID this, but it will not appear in the Final Cut. I "Showed the content" and it allowed me to put the file in THIS library, but it will not appear in the column "libraries."

  (2) create its OWN library on the old computer?

  Thank you.

  Mike Scully

  Stay out of the whole library. This is a complex database. If the components have moved the database becomes useless. Pretty much all you need to do inside the library can be done from the inside of the PCF.

  If you cannot move the entire library from one machine to another on an external drive, you can move a project of a new library. That will copy only the clips used in the project. You can take it on the other machine. You can also export a master file and consider on the other machine to make the DVD. It is perhaps the simplest.

• Trying to connect a computer to the lan port Aiport Express "auto assigned IP address"

  I am trying to connect a computer to the lan on my Airport Express port. In preferences, it says "status: connected, Ethernet has an assigned IP address and won't be able to connect to the internet." Any suggestions?

  An "auto assigned" IP address indicates that your computer could not find or negotiate with a DHCP server to obtain an IP address appropriate for network access.

  It should be more on your network to provide assistance if you need it. For example, is the terminal of AirPort Express the only router in the current configuration of your network? What exact model do? What is the brand and model of your modem Internet?

  Time Machine backup to a sparsebundle.

  The sparsebundle will use the share name of computer. So, it should be obvious who is your Macbook and that is your Macpro.

  Open the sparsebundle in Finder and keep open the subfolders until you get to the backup of each separate hard drive...

  You has of course set the exclusion in Time Machine?

  By default, Time Machine will exclude your second drive unless you have included it. Did you?

  Once you get to this level during the backup, you can do a full restore manually whenever you want.
