How do know if this memory kit will work in my MacBook Pro with the black keys?

Memory (RAM) comes with spec or model like DDR3, etc... this is like manufacture standard. You don't need to worry about brand names. all you need to note is the spec. So, you go to Apple website or support and ask to find out what RAM spec or model your Mac has, then you can buy the same spec in the market.that is what I did and it fits perfectly.

I bought these memories to use on my iMac 21 Late 2013 and worked perfectly. This memories are faster (1600 Mhz) that you have on MacBook Pro (1033 Mhz), so I guess that could work (the memories works with the maximum speed that Mac support). In the memory packaging says that works with any MacBook Pro 2011 or newer.

Mathew, I really wish I could answer this for you. I installed this memory kit in a Mid 2009 24" iMac. It's like a new computer now, hopefully you'll be able to. FYI, Apple told me my system was not upgradable, that I was maxed at 4GB. Have you tried Crucial's website? It's very intuitive, you can either plug in your system info or download their memory scan tool. Www.crucial.com. Good luck!

No , it doesn´t work. Go to www.crucial.com and with their software scanner they told you the right RAM you need.

Had the same question. I looked up the part number on Crucial's website, and seems like they work fine on Macs.

Worked on MacBook Pro 17" 2013.... Does your book use DDR 3 1600 MHz 1.3-1.35 volts? If so then should be fine

Yes it should with the proper drivers for Mac according to the sandisk site..

It looks like the 4GB kit might work, though the maximum memory for the Macbook 2,1 is officially 2GB. You would need 200-pin PC2-5300 DDR2 (667 MHz) SO-DIMM. Take a look here: http://macs.about.com/od/usingyourmac/qt/macbook-upgrade-guide.htmIt looks like you might be able to install (2) 2GB memory modules though only 3GB would be used.

Hi! I purchase that memory and used in Lenovo's SL400, you can go that page: http://www.memorystock.com/memory/AppleLaptopsMemoryUpgrade.html and check if the memory module works for your mac

I got that one without really paying attention to the specs and it turns out it did **NOT** work on my macbook pro 13 mid 2009. It did however, work on my dad's mac mini so I did not return it. I'm currently waiting for this one: &lt;http://www.crucial.com/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=7E646767A5CA7304&gt; which you can find on amazon here: &lt;http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008LTBJFM/ref=pe_385040_30332190_pe_175190_21431760_M3T1_ST1_dp_1&gt;. Based on the reviews it seems that this is the right one (I'm still waiting on this though).

I've used Crucial and Kingston brands quite happily. You can search on their sites for which memory is suitable for which specific Mac / PC etc. to help you choose the correct chips.

Yes this is true i have this RAM installed in my macbook pro 2011. 8gb is really all you need. You will see a big difference

I'm pretty sure the Mac uses a different type of memory. I think I saw one that was for Macs when I was doing my search. I would go on the Crucial.com website and see what they recommend to make sure.

The answer to one question determines your answer (answer only good for laptops and other systems using SODIMMS): In 'About this Mac' from the Apple Menu, there is a readout of your current memory. This memory should work if the line says anything regarding DDR2.My MacBook Pro came with 2GB of DDR2 running at 667 MHz, exactly the speed of this kit, but if yours is slower then the memory will work at the maximum the memory bus allows (up to 667 MHz). If your default memory is faster then this memory will slow your system down slightly (whether it will be noticeable depends upon how you use your system). In short, any Mac system that uses DDR2 SODIMMS should be able to use this memory.

If your MacBook is a third generation Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2 Ghz (Mid 2007, MB062LL/B, MB063LL/B), then this module should work (although the Kingston site seems to recommend a slightly different version - part # KTA-MB667/2G - that may have been tested with Macbooks vs. this part number which is Kingston Value Ram). I installed two of these modules on my son's Dell Inspiron E1505 replacing the two 512 MB modules that came with the laptop. The new modules work perfectly.
