to be sure enter into the terminal following command:
ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | grep firmware-abi
if you see <“EFI64”> then it should be 64bit compatible but if <“EFI32”> it will not be and you will only be able to run in 32bit mode.. make sure to update all your apps before switching to 64bit mode if compatible.. for a more permanent 64bit boot you can also edit the Apple Boot.plist
