Re: Upgrading Ram

Doable, but I'd find someone sighted to do the work. I did my own Mac Mini, but the Pro is much tighter and there's a risk of breaking a cable. There are instructions online, and I know Crucial will let you match your Mac model on their site so you know you're getting the right ram. I think www.

Re: Good Call on Upgrading RAM

That is because there are no screws. When you flip the many over you should feel a very large circular rubber thing. At the three and nine will be two indents. That will turn counter clockwise. Now if all of your ports are to the rear with the front of the many facing you, the ram will be at th

Good Call on Upgrading RAM

Just wanted to say thanks for the discussion about upgrading RAM to help improve VoiceOver's performance. I have been using a Mid 11 Mac Mini, basic model, and noticed several little glitchy things since upgrading to Mountain Lion. I am not saying that going from 2G to 8G solved the gli

the upgrade is very simple in deed. it's a simple case of removing a set of case screws located under the macbook pro. the lid underneeth simply lifts off revealing the HD drive, logic board and ram, etc. the ram is held in place by 2 retention clips per stick, so simply touch the two retention

John, Be careful when attempting to do audio editing in fusion. You will experience a lag. Cuts and pastes are difficult if the moment you press stop to cut, is not going to be the place in the file where the cut will actually happen. I wrote vmware about this and I'm awaiting a response. Don't

Re: upgrading ram and VM fusion

The amount of RAM Fusion uses is based on how much RAM you assign to a particular virtual machine. You have to shut down the virtual machine and then play with the Processors & RAM under Settings (Command-E). Of course you also have to judge whether more RAM on the Windows side will really make

Re: Upgrading Ram.

Depends on what your upgrading. An iMac or MacBook/MacBook Pro is pretty easy and actually the new Mac Mini is very easy. THe older Mac Mini is more challenging. SO, in general it is pretty easy. On Mar 20, 2011, at 8:05 PM, ShamelessFanGirl wrote: > Me again, > > Subject says it all really. Fo

Upgrading Ram.

Me again, Subject says it all really. For those of you who have done it, is doing this through Apple proper advisable, or is doing it oneself more economically sound? I've done it before to PC's, and therefore am capable, just am curious as to what you suggest on the Mac side of the spectra.
