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.

MacBook, OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)

< re-titled by host >

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).

    Hello

    You cannot transfer the operating system from one hard disk to another. But you can use the backup utility to backup data and restore it on the new hard drive.

  • I've owned Adobe CS Master Collection since CS3. Currently, I run CS6 and can't update my software online. I run on a MacBook Pro retina mid 2012, 16 GB RAM, SSD, with the Mavericks 10.9

    Can you help me?

    Thank you

    Bob

    It seems that Adobe has reached the end of the line even by which they entered "desktop publishing." The 'right answer', it seems that you can not update of the CS6 use manual update. CS6 and, on the other hand, the idea of owning your own software and your files is no longer supported.

    Who doesn't remember the free versions of InDesign, we all received, even if Adobe has criticized the "bad old Quark" for overcharging their customers. No doubt that Quark was bad (and stupid - in retrospect). However, cloud 'Creative' new to Adobe is even worse than the Quarks value - rent you the software and don't have access to your own work while you pay the rent. We really speak to each other these questions on a Forum depopulated by Adobe? A few moments ago somebody assigned the label of "Right answer" to the first inadequate answer to my question. So now we compete with each other to see who can give the most 'popular' answer in the absence of adequate customer support?

  • Cannot update software on MacBook - white, early 2009

    I'm new to Mac OS.  I only got the iPad and iPhone.

    I bought an antique MacBook, white/early 2009.

    -OS x 10.6.8 4 GB of ram, 107 GB available hard - not SSD disk

    Great, runs fast.  The case seems new, perfect condition.

    It is said there are updates available, for many things, but they won't install.  I have download, the system begins to restart, but remains on the desktop with wallpaper only - no icons, etc.  Manual reboot simply cancels the update process.

    I don't need this notebook, I just want to get some applications or programs that connect with applications on my other devices, but this version OSX is too old.  Therefore, I made a mistake buying this MacBook - only error of $100.  Don't know if I'll keep it.  However, it is pretty sweet.

    Please use the numbers of the BONE, if possible, when you reply.  I don't know the names of the different versions - like Maverik, El Capitan, etc..

    Thank you

    The computer that you identified as MacBook5.2 (13-inch early 2009)

    should be able to run El Capitan OS X 10.11.6 as it is downloaded from

    the Mac App Store online. This is the download of the available system only

    which would be upgraded to the latest OS X.

    Other than this free update, the other option would be to buy a

    old Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.5 redemption code Online

    Apple Store, which would then be used in the App Store for download;

    It would cost $19.99 (buy at the Apple Store; download App Store)

    Don't know what you found or tried to download. Remember if you try

    to use the Mac App Store since in Snow Leopard, you

    Use your own AppleID because all updates and upgrades will bind the

    OS X computer and just bought the software to your AppleID.

    And any subsequent owner of this computer should adapt

    the Snow Leopard 10.6.8 using App Store database. The

    model that you probably won't be able to use the next OSX

    not yet released version; El Capitan is what should be judged.

    If you upgrade to a system later has no install DVD media,

    the owner later would need boot Snow Leopard 10.6.3

    the retail DVD and then update. While they could use their AppleID to

    Customizing the computer for their own use. So to enter the

    install the disc media for the Snow Leopard 10.6.3 system with the

    computer, is a key to set up for future upgrade online users.

    There are other details in the present, perhaps someone can offer those

    because I need to be offline now.

    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Why have I received email saying my Adobe Acrobat Pro bought in Dec 2012 XI was a trial version and I need to upgrade?

    December 2012, I bought Adobe Acrobat Pro XI for my Mac Book Pro.  A month ago, I got a notice my Adobe Acrobat was a trial version and I need to upgrade.  My Adobe Acrobat stops working. I had no choice, because I was in the middle of a big project.  Yesterday, I bought the DC Adobe Acrobat Pro for $215.00 plus tax.

    (1.) download says it's the classic version despite my order confirmation with Adobe Acrobat Pro DC.

    (2.) the installed product would not allow access to my stored documents.

    3. the installed product deleted each watermark on all my documents.

    4.) and there is no way to get help unless the poster on a forum?

    The Rev. Dr. Cynthia Forde

    Thank you for your helpfulness to the point of understanding 1.

    2.), I made a mistake.  We could open the stored project documents but not to make changes. The password for the project/documents stored was no longer valid after the upgrade.

    (3.) the watermarks have been added on top of Word documents using Adobe Acrppobat Pro XI.  some watermarks had to be cleared up, but they could not be changed after the upgrade.  In addition, the entire project was wiped clean of watermarks. We had to start from scratch, add watermarks, again: "Property of Swedish Colonial Society", etc.  Some watermarks were on the face of the Word document and some were in right margin

    4.) Whoever you are, thank you!

  • need help to change my macbook pro hdd

    Hello. need help to change my macbook pro 13 "mid 2012 hdd. witch HDD I buy 1 TB 7200 RPM 2.5 witch should I choose sata2? or sata3? If you know any suggestions, it would be really appreciated. And when I add the new hard disk can you restore with lion at el capitan?

    Thanks for the help.

    A 2012 MBP has SATA 3 connectivity.

    If you want to install a new HARD drive, the best approach is to clone the new from the old HARD drive.  It will duplicate the original HARD drive which has likely El Capitan installed.  I suggest to use Carbon Copy Cloner to the process.  It is not free, but worth it because you can use it to create a backup disc drag.

    Here's the Setup instructions for your MBP:

  • Upgrade of RAM for MacBook white late 2009

    Hello guys,.

    Greetings!

    I use Macbook Core 2 Duo 2.26 13-inch (white Polycarbonate "Unibody" - end of 2009). My Mac has 2 gb DD3 RAM integrated, now I need to upgrade. So I can go with 4 GB of RAM and 8 GB of RAM if you please let me know. According to the amazon.in 8 GB Crucial DDR3L 1600 MHz PC3-12800 SODIMM 204-PIN for macbook. I'm confused with her as it supports up to 8 GB or not.

    Any suggestion & advice all welcome...

    Thank you very much for your valuable time and support.

    Sincerely,

    Rohit_03

    Apple officially supports the 4 GB of RAM in this model, but it can handle up to 8 GB.
