Hi I got a late 2008 MBP 15" with processor 2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, I was wondering if these will work on my computer

This model can use 2 sticks of 4GB 1067MHz (8GB total) of RAM. I used the Kingston 1066MHz modules in a friend's MacBook & it worked perfectly. I like Kingston & put an 8GB set in my new 2012 Mac mini.

I have the same MBPro 15" late 2008 model and it works perfectly with my computer. I haven't had any stability issues so far. Programs are snappier. No more slowdowns due to low resources. I have Skype, Spotify, Chrome and a bunch of other programs running in the background and still have 4gb of RAM to spare.

Check this link and go near the bottom. http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-2.53-aluminum-15-late-2008-unibody-specs.html it will tell you whether you can use 8GB stably or not

I used this RAM on my Mac mini. I don't know for sure if this will work on your machine or not. You can go on the Apple website to see which RAM your particular machine needs.

I believe so (it worked for me). But to make sure 100000%, look up how to get at the ram. (Open the bottom case and its right there) take a stick out and see what it says on it.ll Check and see if it matches up. I personally used this ram with the exact same setup you have. And it worked great. Needed it when in updated to the new "iOS" basically haha.

I am not sure. You can verify your macbook which type of RAM it is using. As long as the new RAM is matching the type, it will work. Here are the steps: 1. Click on the Apple icon on the top left screen, click on about this mac 2. on the about page, you will see the memory information. If your memory information match the spec of the of 1066 Mhz and DDR3, it is likely to work. Good luck.

More detailed configuration information would be nice. However, if Apple's specs http://support.apple.com/kb/sp30) are applicable to your model, yes these should work. You should really check your system documentation first though.

It works fine on my late 2011 MBP and 2010 uses the same memory based on its specifications. My assumption is that it will work. Worst case scenario - return memory to Amazon.

It might...check your specs by clicking the apple at the top right of your screen.Here are my specs and it worked for me.Also go check out kingston website.Make sure your ram speed is the same...this one is 667 mhz...my specs. Size: 1 GB x 2 Type: DDR2 SDRAM Speed: 667 MHz Model Name: MacBook Model Identifier: MacBook3,1 Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor Speed: 2 GHz Number Of Processors: 1 Total Number Of Cores: 2 L2 Cache: 4 MB Memory: 2 GB Bus Speed: 800 MHz

Yes the crucial ram 8gb will work in your macbook it should give you a nice performance boost, in addition I would add in a ssd drive and really gain a performance boost.

I have a mid-2009 Macbook Pro 15", 253 Ghz, and the Ram type needed ( and I checked in a chart) is: PC3-8500 DDR3, 1066 Mhz type Ram.

I have a 15" MacBook Pro purchased mid 2009 and running 10.9.4 with a 1066MHz processor and the 1067 MHz DDR3 upgrade to 8GB is working fine. As to whether it will physically fit, I'm not certain.

Macmini 4.1/2.4 GHz Intel Core Duo/2 GB 1067 MHz DDR3/OS 10.6.8 - works just fine - plug and play.

Yes they will work. I had to set the frequency to 2100MHz to begin with, these RAM chips are set factory at 1600 if I remember correctly. All your MB must be capable of is supporting DDR3.

If you read the description, this item is available with MacBook 13.3" 2.26GHz Core 2 Duo (MC207LL/A, A1342, MacBook6,1) - Late 2009.Plus I have a 2009 MBP unibody 13 inch and it works just fine with it (I recently bought that same item).

My Dell E6400 has the same cpu series...Core 2 Duo. However this memory did not work in my laptop. After installing the memory my machine wouldn't reboot with this memory installed. After reinstalling the original memory it worked just fine. I would check the Apple website and see what memory is a known good choice for your Macbook. Most manufacturers of laptops and computers post memory that is a known compatible choice. I feel like you are gambling with a hit or miss situation trying this memory. Good luck !!

Yes, that RAM should work in your MacBook (2009). I believe your max RAM is 4GB. I also have the 2009 MacBook 2.13GHz notebook and it's running in mine.

I figured out which type my computer needed from this site http://www.crucial.com/apple/. You just plug in your computer specs and it should point you in the right direction. I attempted to check this for you, but I was not sure if your computer is quad, 6, or 12 core.

Hello Mia,Your MacBook is from about the right year. The only way I can be sure is if you give me your macbook's model number. It's usually written really small on the bottom of the computer. It will probably look something like "MA699LL/A," if you email the model number of your MacBook I will let you know exactly which ram to buy and how much you can use. Thanks

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

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.
