I thought my MacBook Pro (2010) running 8gb RAM on the Mac OS X 10.6.7 is already 64 bits since all the 8gb is recognized and I could run my own application. Is the guy trying do a fast one on me ? I thought that a 64 bits Mac OS X can run any 32bits apps without issue ? Just not the other way around. I am not relying on any drivers or anything. Besides, the reason I made the update was because he said that he tested the app earlier and found that he needed some additional features which I subsequently added. _________________ RealStudio 2011R1 â¡ Macbook Pro Mac OS X 10.6.6 http://www.batchimage.com http://www.completemagic.com Top DaveS Post subject: Re: 32bits app unable to run on 64bits Mac OS X 10.6.7 ???Posted: Thu Apr 21, 2011 9:09 pm Joined: Sun Aug 05, 2007 10:46 am Posts: 2930 Location: San Diego, CA Snow Leopard can be booted up as either 32bit or 64bit.... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3770 Perhaps you both were using 32bit..... and then your client switched to 64bit... so that you are NOT running the same as you thought? And you don't have to be in 64bit mode to have 8gig of memory... . My MacPro Tower can have up to 32gig of memory, and thats way back to OSX 10.4 _________________ Dave Sisemore MacPro, OSX 10.6.4 RB2009r5.1 Note : I am not interested in any solutions that involve custom Plug-ins of any kind Top eddy2099 Post subject: Re: 32bits app unable to run on 64bits Mac OS X 10.6.7 ???Posted: Thu Apr 21, 2011 10:37 pm Joined: Sun Jan 23, 2011 11:59 am Posts: 156 Ah Thanks. But when I looked into my 'About This Mac' and it shows Could I assume that I am running in 64 bits mode ? I am still able to run my 32 bits Carbon Intel app. I guess it is possible that the guy is not running an Intel based Mac. _________________ RealStudio 2011R1 â¡ Macbook Pro Mac OS X 10.6.6 http://www.batchimage.com http://www.completemagic.com Top jefftullin Post subject: Re: 32bits app unable to run on 64bits Mac OS X 10.6.7 ???Posted: Fri Apr 22, 2011 2:20 am Joined: Wed Nov 15, 2006 3:50 pm Posts: 2290 Location: England Quote:I guess it is possible that the guy is not running an Intel based Mac. Snow Leopard only runs on intel, doesnt it? The article shown by Dave mentions that 64bit kernal does not imply a 64 bit processor. You may have different graphics cards. What kind of problem is he reporting?
