I have an older mac, running 10.5.8 with a 1.6 GHz PowerPC G5 processer with 3 GB DDR SDRAM....can I up grade to 10.6 on this unit?

I did. It's been a wonderful improvement. Much faster, and it doesn't freeze up now.

I just answered this a few minutes ago for Travis. The following is what I posted for his question. I went back and your machine has the same specs and requirements as his. Hope this helps. I went to the Apple website and pulled the specs for your machine. According to their specs the following is what they specify.......PC3-10600 (1333) DDR3, 204-pin SO-DIMM. These are the exact specs spelled out by this HP Dram. Also, according to the Apple website your machine is capable of utilizing either 2G or 4G memory modules and you should have a total of 4 slots. So it looks like you should be good to go with these modules. Hope this helps you out some. Best Wishes and a Happy New Year. P.S. I just went back and cut and pasted the footnote specifying the size of DRAM you can use. You can see it here........... 2.The iMac (Late 2009), iMac (Mid 2010) and iMac (Mid 2011) have four SDRAM slots, each of which can accept a 2 GB or 4 GB SO-DIMM.

Can't answer that without more information, but I did check into it for you. Free if charge, lol. Check this link out, scroll down check out your model and it will show you the exact Ram specifications needed. Good luck. http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powerbook_g4/faq/powerbook-g4-how-to-install-memory-ram-types-supported.html

if your mac is the 2011 model, look for DDR3 1333MHz (or PC3-10600) like http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002YUF8ZG/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_1?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lpo-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B000RMT1M4&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=0XA5Q30DEC4JZ3G5PKE5 or http://www.amazon.com/Crucial-204-pin-SODIMM-PC3-10600-CT2KIT51264BC1339/dp/B003DZJQQI/ref=pd_cp_e_2

Probably. I 'm not a mac expert, but the internet says a G5 can use PC3200 DDR RAM, and that's what this is. Just be sure to install in pairs.

Yes. I have a Macbook Pro 13', originally 4GB, 2.5 GHz Core i5, mid 2012, which I believe is the MD101. I've bought this RAM and it's working perfectly with 16GB now.

I have used it with 10.6 thru 10.8. Make sure you create one partition. Also select the correct partition scheme (intel or power Mac). That will help a lot.

I've been running this Mac pro 1,1 2.66Ghz Dual-core Intel Xeon daily since I had purchased and installed the ramm through Amazon, and to-date no problems with any applications or overheating or crashes. I usually run the limits of the ramm through Photoshop and Illustrator and the everyday applications with no problems. I hope this computer lives on forever! Too bad apple has left us to the wayside at 10.7.5

No this Imac is not able to upgrade to 10.6 I believe 10.5 is the latest OS you can upgrade to. This iMac has a maximum RAM capacity of 1G. However, only one RAM slot is easily accessible. Hopefully the "user-accessible" slot is open, meaning you don't have to pull a module to upgrade.You can install a 512MB module in the open slot to give you a total of 768MB for this system. I believe this is the correct ram needed PC-133 144 Pin SO-DIMM. This should help you just click on the drop down arrows to choose your system http://www.crucial.com/?gclid=CPOCs9CRlrgCFYuf4Aod3g0Avg&cpe;=pd_google_us&ef;_id=UdWSdwAABCqV0i1A:20130704151919:s No this Imac is not able to upgrade to 10.6 I believe 10.5 is the latest OS you can upgrade to.

To check your memory go to About This Mac > More Info... It will list the type of memory (my 2010 Mac Mini is 1067 MHz DDR3If they spec matches you should be fine, just check that you do not exceed the max size for your model.Corsair is Apple certified and my upgrade is running without issues.

Check he details of your currently installed ram from the apple "about this Mac" menu. You should look at the 'memory' section and the new ram should match (all but the GB). I'd also check a few forums to see if they were able to upgrade the ram for your specific model. I would have thought it would be fine, however, I had to play about with mine a bit for it to accept the upgrade and actually show the ram installed. Hope this helps.

I don't think so, that mac pro would be too old. I'm a 5.1, 2009 model...and to get the speed from this card you need PCI2 2.0

I also have a Mid-2009 2.53 GHz but 13 MacBook Pro running Yosemite. It is working great for me. Hope this helps.

I bought the 20inch 2.0 ghz iMac last week. I dont think an upgrade of the CPU is required but wont hurt. I went with a RAM upgrade as I am a developer (100 bucks only for 4GB). It gives good performance with 2.0 ghz CPU.

IT DEPENDS UPON YOU PROCESSOR. THE INFORMATION BELOW COMES DIRECTLY FROM THE APPLE WEB SITE. I HOPE IT HELPS YOU. To use Mac OS X v10.4, your Macintosh needs: A PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 processor Built-in FireWire At least 256 MB of RAM DVD drive (DVD-ROM), Combo (CD-RW/DVD-ROM) or SuperDrive (DVD-R) for installation At least 3 GB of free disk space; 4 GB if you install the XCode 2 Developer Tools Additional Information Notes Please be sure to read the "Before You Install" document included on the Mac OS X 10.4 installation disc for more important information. Mac OS X does not support processor upgrade cards. The amount of disk space required depends on your computer and how you choose to install Mac OS X. Not all PowerPC G3 processor-based Macs have built-in FireWire. BOB ANDERSON PETOSKEY, MI

Yes, probably. Check www.everymac.com for your specific machine (processor) to be sure. This is an unsupported configuration, however.
