If your Mac is compatible with Mountain Lion, you can upgrade to it without installing additional RAM.

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click on More Info, and see if the model identifier is at least MacBookPro3,1.

Only if you use software compatible with it but not Yosemite.

Guess I will take it to the Apple Store and see what they suggest using.
They should know what is compatible…at least I know it may be possible to upgrade.

Thanks for your reply
