Top left corner, click apple,
open about this mac
click on more info...
--- lot of data about your machine here ---
click on system report (or go to utilities/ system report -- its just more fun this way)
- Compare your Processor Name to information below
- determine whether your Mac has a 32-bit or 64-bit processor.
- all later model macs are 64 bit (unlike ms)
| Processor Name | 32- or 64-bit |
| Intel Core Solo | 32 bit |
| Intel Core Duo | 32 bit |
| Intel Core 2 Duo | 64 bit |
| Intel Quad-Core Xeon | 64 bit |
| Dual-Core Intel Xeon | 64 bit |
| Quad-Core Intel Xeon | 64 bit |
| Core i3 | 64 bit |
| Core i5 | 64 bit |
| Core i7 | 64 bit |
