    Why would u even want 8GB...I mean nothing in the world would use that xD. Well it probably doesn't register becasue MAC osx is only compatible with upto 3GB and other computers 2GB. But seriously I don't know what u were thinking installing 8GB. The most any application can use is 1GB.

    Cheers,
