Re: upgrading my 2009 macbook memory?

Adding extra RAM is easy (my wife did it for me) and my 2009 MacBook does run High Sierra - but voiceover is now so sluggish that it might have been wiser not to have upgraded the OS. So, I agree that the latest and greatest is not necessarily the best choice! Harry > On 7 Jun 2018, at 20:54, T

Re: DTMF entry during a FaceTime call

Hi, What is likely happening in your case has to do with the VO cursor. In the Navigation category of the VO Utility, if your mouse pointer ignores the VO cursor, then the VO-shift-space that Brian mentioned does not click the correct area. You can do a few different things here. First, you

Re: DTMF entry during a FaceTime call

Try going into your VO Utilities using VO-F8, then down to Navigation, and make sure that the mouse follows the VO cursor. A friend of mine had this same problem, and if I’m remembering correctly, this is how we fixed it. Blessings, Brian > On Jun 7, 2018, at 3:25 PM, aliFaisal wrote: > > B

Re: upgrading my 2009 macbook memory?

While you could probably upgrade the memory, it may not be worth it. The 2009 macs will not be able to run any more new versions of Mac OS so it's probably not worth putting any more money in to them. Original message: This site will scan your machine and list any possible upgrades for memo

Re: upgrading my 2009 macbook memory?

Hi Hank The short answer is no, doubling the RAM in that machine from 2 to 4 GB won’t make a difference. I’ll stick my neck out here and say you probably won’t even see a difference in performance at all with double the RAM. Don’t go wasting your money on RAM. As said the best in terms of speed
