  • After upgrading to Lion the bookmarks in Preview returns error message.

    After upgrading to Lion the bookmarks in Preview returns error message : The File "****" couldn't be opened because you don't have permission to view it. To change the perimssion, select the item in finder and Choose File info.  I have bookmarked plenty of files in Preview.  How to overcome this error message???

    Doesn't work Steve. I think it is an issue with Preview being sandboxed (check the sandbox column in Activity Monitor: Preview = Yes). Sandboxed apps restrict file access to those the user has explicitly selected. My theory is that this causes the unfortunate side effect of bookmarked or linked PDFs not working. A simple test: open a file with bookmarks, manually open the bookmarked file and then select the bookmark in the first file - it should open with no complaints about permissions (which leads to a weak workaround: open all the PDFs you intend to work with!).

  • My ebook reader no longer works now I have upgraded to Lion.   I have reset the PRAM and tried booting in 32-bit mode, all with no joy.

    My ebook reader no longer works now I have upgraded to Lion. I have reset the PRAM and tried booting in 32-bit mode, all with no joy. Come on Apple, it worked fine with Snow Leopard.
    I see a lot of other people are having trouble with ebook readers, cameras, and other USB devices too.....

    Sorry, you're not talking to Apple here only other users like yourself.
    Someone might be able to help if you post which e-book reader you are using?

  • After upgrading to Lion should I have tatty grey screen on opening with boxes for password user?

    After upgrading to Lion on Wednesday last I now have a tatty grey screen on booting-up with the two boxes for user name and password.Gone is the old blue screen. Does anyone else have a grey opening screen?
    Also this evening on booting the grey screen appeared but I could not immediately type any info into either box.After switching on/off several times I gave up and left the iMAC on with an inactive grey screen.About five minutes later the HP printer went through a re-calibration or cleaning process,of its own accord, and I noticed that the cursor on the screen had moved of its own accord.I then found that I could insert info into the two boxes and here I am with the iMAC open.Anone come across this issue?

    Hello again Gary,
    After trying your PRAM suggestion, everything was OK however, when I restarted my iMac the next day, the same Grey Screen apppeared whith the request for user name and password?
    This has repeated for the last 3 days!
    I have tried the Utility to check the HD "Verify Disk Permissions" which shows a long list of "faults"? and I have done this twice now.
    Also I have to do the PRAM start-up in order to get online and use other programs. I get frequent messages that say my "Applications" are for the wrong OS?
    After using the PRAM keyboard start-up I get a screen with a "Bar" similar to the Windows XP start-up proocess and a grey blob moves along this "Bar" until the iMac starts.
    On one site it mentioned that this iMac may need an "Firmware" update/correction; however I can not find any Firmware to download for this machine.
    My iMac is a 21.5" Model A1311. 
    Do I need to do a complete Format of the HDD and re-install Leopard and then try Lion again?
    Very frustrated,
    Maureen

  • HT1725 I have downloads that have a download error, and won't download. How do I delete them

    How do I delete podcasts and movies that won't download due to download error?

    AHA, you have Firmware password protection in Mac OS X , disable it & try Option/alt...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1352
    It would block usage of all the startup keys, like C, N, T, D, CMD+s, CMD+Option+p+r, CMD +v, Option, and Shift, as well as booting from anything but the Hard Drive.

  • After upgrading to Lion, my Canon 7d can not be found.

    After upgrading to Lion, my Canon 7d can not be found.  I have used the USB connection to connect to my camera for several years with no problems, until now.  I have reset the SMC, by powering off the computer and unplugging everything for approx 30 minutes.  There are no new drivers available and any assistance will be appreciated.

    I was having the same issue after upgrading to Lion OSX. I searched the web and found many people had the same problem but no solution so...
    I called Canon and they told me to run 'Image Capture' its part of the Canon Software Suite so you should have it and then try downloading the pictures like you usually do. I use 'Image Browser' and with 'Image Capture' running in the background it works perfectly now.
    Hope this helps!!

  • After upgrading to Lion, Printer error messages.

    After upgrading to Lion, I suddenly see the following error message whenever I print to my HP printer: "You can't open the application PrinterProxy because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." Now, my document will print, but I can no longer adjust settings. Help??

    PowerPC applications are no longer supported under Lion.  If you can't find Lion drivers on HP's website, you either need to go back to Snow Leopard or start looking for a newer, compatible printer.

  • Has anybody lost imported photos after upgrading to Lion? (iphoto11)

    Has anybody lost imported photos after upgrading to Lion? (iphoto11)

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards

  • After upgrading to Lion, Preview (5.2.2) appears to have lost the facility to run a slide show by using my mouse to click an icon in the visible menu bar, as I could in the previous version.  Can I retrieve that icon and thus that facility?

    Unfortunately not. Lion has made many adjustments to the previous system. Try opening your pdfs in keynote.

  • After upgrading to iOS 5 I have no more Video on my iPad 2.

    Hello! After upgrading to iOS 5 I have no more Video on my iPad 2. I can watch it only if my Macbook Pro with Wi-Fi and iTunes are turned on. How can I store it locally as before?

    Same problem. I have a set of videos that I use for work. After my iCloud backup, they were gone. I connected my iPad to my mac and sync'd manually and they are back again. Now I'm confused: not sure where iCloud is working vs. local sync. For example music. Should I just uncheck the "Sync music" box in iTunes and just do it via iCloud? I'm having a hard time understanding iCloud and finding in depth documentation to learn how it works. And what about how iOS devices now sync with iTunes wirelessly? That's great. But what exactly do they sync? Obviously not my videos.

  • ICal event have disappeared after upgrading to Lion. Please help!

    After upgrading to Lion, pre-existed calendar events (Newer ones) have disappeared. How can I recover?

    Greetings Alex,
    If you have a backup of your computer from before you upgraded then you can restore the data from your backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1553
    --- Let us know if you have a backup and if so, what type it is and we can tell you how to restore your calendars.
    --- If you don't have a backup, consider starting one following the article above ASAP.  Anyone with information they care about on their computer should have a backup.  It is a hard lesson that every computer user learns at least once.
    If you do not have a backup from before you upgraded:
    1. Make an iCal backup so you don't lose what you have currently:  Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
    2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
    3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
    Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove all files and folders that start with this phrase)
    Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
    Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove all files and folders that start with this phrase.)
    ---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
    ---NOTE: To get to "Home > Library" in Lion:
    4. Open iCal and see if the events you are looking for magically reappear.
    If the events don't appear and you don't have a backup or have the events on another device like an iPhone or iPad then your only other option would be to use data recovery software or a data recovery company to try to get the data back (although it might be easier to just re-create the data as best you can).
    Data Recovery software examples:

    http://www.macintosh-data-recovery.com/
    http://www.subrosasoft.com/OSXSoftware/index.php?main_page=product_info&products _id=1
    You can contact a local Apple Authorized Provider to see if they offer data recovery services: http://www.apple.com/buy/locator/service/
    There are many nationwide / worldwide data recovery companies out there.  Here are a few examples:

  • Photo booth video effects not recording after upgrade to Lion

    I recently upgraded from s.leopard to Lion. Photobooth is working perfectly with the leopard until upgraded to lion, the video effects could not be used and recorded. It only appears in 1 sec when video recording.
    I have done the following already according to the forums I read.
    1. the 32 bit mode is not ticked.
    2. disk utility permissions.
    and still not working. Any advise? Thanks

    The same Lion-problem here. Everything looks just fine until I press record. Then the effect dissappears. I bought my 28" "BigMac" in february this year, and as the problem is mentioned about a year ago, it might be a major problem since no solution is mentioned anywhere.
    So, if you guys see or hear (or smell) anything in the direction of a solution, drop a note.
