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.

Yes it should work just great. After you install, run the Apple hardware test (google to find out how) a couple of times to make sure you aren't getting any errors. That will take the better part of an hour for each run. If you pass OK, you should have no problems. If it doesn't pass, pop the modules back out and switch them in the slots and then repeat the tests. I also highly recommend that you be upgraded to 10.9 Mavericks. I used to get some rare kernel panics with this memory under 10.7 Lion, but after upgrading the OS they have disappeared completely. Then, if you haven't done it already, start shopping for a solid state drive. Since I added both to mine (late 2011 MPB) I couldn't wish for a faster more responsive system.

Minimum 2.5 Ghz Dual Core, 2GB ram, 500 mb Vram. I'm using on my MacBook Pro 2.5 Ghz Core i5, 8GB ram with 1.5 GB Vram. It works fine.

That's what I have. This memory kit made an incredible difference! Just to be safe, click on your apple menu, then "about this Mac". Make sure it says "1333MHz DDR3". You should be good to go. Enjoy

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.

I would not try to overclock the CPU or try to use higher than recommended RAM speed in this laptop. I can confrm that this laptop can support 16 GB of RAM. Check out the link below for more info on this and other Macs.RAM Speed and type: Speed 1333 MHz; Type: PC3-10600 DDR3http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core-i7-2.0-15-early-2011-unibody-thunderbolt-specs.html

what are you asking? if your 2GB module is DDR2 200 pin 667MHz pc2-5300 it will match beautifully provided your laptop can recognize and use 6GB RAM. i tried another brand 4GB module that did not workCrucial memory has never failed in any of my macs since 2004

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

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

Yes. Because your macbook runs ddr3 at 10600 1333MHZ this ram is compatible but will not run at its full clock speed of 1600MHZ. I would suggest buying ram with the lower clock speed if it will save money.

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.

It will work with 8gb of ram but check the MHz.Click on the apple symbol on the top left, and then click on about this mac. After that it will say some stuff and then 4gb of whatever MHz memory. Make sure that number on the ram matches with what you computer has. So if it says 1067 on your computer then yes this pictuclar ram will work. If it says something else then no it won't and you will need to buy the kind with the correct MHz. Hope that helps.

If you want to be positive about compatibility, click the Apple icon at the upper left corner of your screen. Then click "About this MAC" and look at what it says for "Memory" if you have 1066 MHz DDR3 or 1067 MHz DDR3 it is compatible. If not, it is not compatible and you will need to look for the unit with the same type of RAM and MHz.

No,1. Your 2008 only supports a max of 6gb2. Macbooks use sdram, 200 pin, not 240

The description says the memory is for MacBook Pro 15.4-inch 2.2GHz/2.4GHz/2.6GHz, and MacBook Pro 17-inch 2.4GHz/2.6GHz.I only have a 20 inch iMac (mid 2007) and am not familiar with all the Macbook models. Sorry can't help you there.

According to the manual, the MacBook Pro for that year uses DDR3 SDRAM. This module will work. Be sure to have someone using Anti-static procedures install it.

Hello Dan,I'm Jewel with Kingston Technical Support, here to address your question. The newer Intel-based Macs generally can use the same memory as PCs but can be finicky. To guarantee the memory will work properly, it is best to get memory that is specifically made for Apple systems. We can advise on the proper memory for your Macbook Pro but will need to know it's year model. For further assistance, please call us at 1-800-435-0640 (USA and Canada only) M - F 6am - 6pm PT and I or another available Technician will assist you.Thank you for selecting Kingston as your upgrade partner.
