Extended monitor problem after upgrade from Snow Leopard

Upon upgrading Mac Pro (09) from Snow Leopard, I can only get a black screen on my extended desktop monitor. I can see the mouse cursor, but nothing else. I am not using Full Screen. Any suggestions? The extended monitor is a SyncMaster 943. thanks.

After reading about kernel panics on this machine, I should also report that the MacPro has two Nvidia GT120's. I have not upgraded the driver manually and have not had a kernel panic (yet). Just the black screen on actually two extended desktop monitors.

I have a big problem with Lion and PGP. After upgrading from snow leopard to lion I cannot access my PGP drive which was generated under snow leopard. PGP does not start but gives a notion that lion cannot work with my PGP version. Solution?

After upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion I cannot access a PGP drive which was generated under snow leopard. PGP does not start. When I try to start I just receive a message that Lion cannot work with PGP. How can I now access important and confifential informatio which I have stored in PGP (snow leopard). Do I have to move back to snow leopard. If so, how can I do this?

If you have this product,

you have to go back to Snow Leopard.
To re-install SL, back up your home directory, format and re-install.

After upgrade from snow leopard to lion, where is application front row?

After upgrade from snow leopard to lion, where is application front row? i realize it when to use my remote. any one knows about this matter?

OK - Fixed it.
Turns out the cure is to use the Webcal Interface to re-create the delegations. A bit tedious, but doing this presumably forces a rewrite of the file that previously cannot be accessed. Means you need to set up the delegation again for each account - but this at least is an improvement over not being able to do anything at all.
Once fixed, delegation works just fine.
Hope this helps someone else solve the issue etc.

Printer problem after upgrade to Snow Leopard

My trusty HP Deskjet 1200C printer keeps giving an error now I have upgraded to Snow Leopard (on the way to Lion for iCloud). I checked for an upgraded driver on the HP site but there doesn't seem to be one after OS 10.6
I am getting this error - PrintJobMgr failed
Any suggestions welcome and advice for what will and won't work with Lion.
Thanks

Try to restart, see if problem still happens.
If it does.. remove printer (and other periferals) from the computer and do an SMC reset. Also unplug your printer's power as well to rest it too.
Also, do a PRAM reset.
Let us know how it goes.

ICal delegation failing after upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion

I've just upgraded our Snow Leopard server to run Lion Server.
I have a problem with iCal Server.
Individual calendars work OK: can be accessed from iCal / iThings and so on, and via web interface. But calendar delegation doesn't.
If I open Accounts / Preferences / Delegation from any version of iCal / Calendar I get this error:
In the server calendar server error log I see the following:
[twext.web2.dav.method.report_expand#error] Error reading property (u'http://calendarserver.org/ns/', u'calendar-proxy-read-for') for resource /principals/__uids__/BCDF1D53-4447-40A2-A035-B30F6E2EEDE4/: <StatusResponse 403 Unable to list properties: /Volumes/StorageHD/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Documents>
Anyone got any ideas what is going on and / or how to fix?
Thanks in advance for any help available.

Do I need to update Bootcamp 3.3 after upgrading from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion?

Do I need to update Bootcamp 3.3 after upgrading directly from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion? If so, what is the recommended version for my machine?
Other pros and cons we should consider? Not sure what is considered best practice.
We have a mid-2011 iMac (12,1) running Win7 64bit. Concerned about firmware updates not being compatible with Bootcamp 3.3. Firmware updates forThunderbolt port were part of post-Mountain Lion updater install. Not sure what other firmware/boot changes might have been applied to support the new recovery partition, for example. Will the 3.3 windows control panel still work safely?
Win7 still boots OK, at least for now. Backup is current.
I'd like to get the entire machine current again. Bootcamp 5.0 didn't want to download (appeared to hang writing to my external drive, which is otherwise fine). Bootcamp 4.1 refused to install on Win7 (claimed it wasn't for my machine, so I aborted. Downloaded from apple support page directly).
I've searched the forums for this specific question - I see plenty of info for upgrading Bootcamp 4 to 5, but nothing for 3 to 5.
Thanks much in advance,
-b

Appreciate the quick response.
There are basically 2 schools of thought here:
- If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
- Don't fall off the upgrade cycle (apply patches whether you have an issue or not in order to ward off trouble before it happens).
I don't have a specific issue that I'm chasing on the Win7 side right now. I'm attempting to address having fallen off the upgrade cycle by staying on Snow Leopard too long.
I appreciate that the Win7 side under bootcamp is its own thing (upgrades to Mac OS don't cross over or effect the bootcamp partition) - except where firmware upgrades coming out of Mountain Lion change the hardware interface to Win7. Hence my questions.

X11 problem after upgrade to Snow Leopard - keyboard unresponsive

I have just upgraded to Snow Leopard from Tiger.
I use Sun's Secure Global Desktop native client which runs using X11. It worked fine under Tiger, but since the upgrade it isn't working - the native client starts up (and starts the X server), it responds to the trackpad and I can focus on the login box, but when I type nothing shows up, so I can't log in!
I installed X11 with Snow Leopard and as far as I can tell it is running OK - Gimp seems to work. The SGD native client log says this:
Smart card library loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/PCSC.framework/PCSC
Smart card support failed to initialize (0x8010001d)
Server version 4 3 0 915
Client version 4 2 0 983
Info: local X server available
Any assistance would be very gratefully received.

If other X11 apps are working except this one, then perhaps it's incompatible with Snow. To see if this is the case I would suggest installing Snow on a freshly erased drive (could be an external or other internal) and see if the problem is fixed. Could be the result of upgrading. You did upgrade Leopard, not Tiger, right? Can't do the latter without first upgrading to Leopard.

Time machine can not access time capsule after upgrade from snow leopard to mountain lion

Two days ago I upgraded my 2009 17" MBP from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. That evening my time capsule/time machine combination worked fine and did an incremental backup of about 12 gigabyte. Yesterday - only one day later - the time machine backup did not work anymore.
It appears that the system can not find the time capsule - even though it shows the remaining free space on the time capsule (so it did find it after all).
The message is always the same:
Time Machine can not complete the backup "Time Capsule"
The image of the backup volume "/Volumes/Data/Pauls MacBookPro.sparsebundle" is not accessable (Error -1).
I also can not delete the backup image on the time capsule since it is read-only. And I do not want to format the time caspsule yet since my wife's MBAir is also using the same time casule.
I tried out all kinds of suggestions (hard and soft resetting both the MBP and the TC, entering the password again, setting the TC up again) all to no avail. No backup is possible anymore.

Sounds like you got this message earlier:
If so, see #C13 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
Offhand, I don't recall anyone not being able to delete one via the Finder (but most were only backing-up one Mac, so just erased the disk).
You may have to wait for that message to appear again (24 hours later), or you might try holding Alt/Option with the TM icon in the menubar, and select Verify Backups if it will let you.

Font Problem after Upgrade to Snow Leopard?

Has anyone else noticed this? I open a Keynote I had just done before upgrading to Snow Leopard, and the Bullets and font are all jumbled together, and don't play when I try to play the slideshow?

I noticed the same jumbled text problem.
When I went to look at Font Book, I see that those fonts are no longer installed. It must've happened when I loaded Snow Leopard last weekend.
Anyway, I went to reinstall fonts, and I see I've got a bunch that got uninstalled. But when I try to reinstall them, like Calisto and Caligula to name the first couple I tried, Font Book reports that there were serious errors when trying to load them.
Does anyone have insights into the vague message: "System Validation" as the serious problem? I don't see a way to get more details about the problem than that.

Problems after upgrading to Snow Leopard

Apple Store just upgraded Leopard to Snow Leopard on my Macbook Pro. Now my printer wont work, The message "inkjet8 quit unexpectedly" pops up.
What can I do???

First of all, your profile says 10.6.3. If that is accurate you need to update it further ... Once you have upgraded to Snow Leopard, if your upgrade took you to 10.6.3 you will need to apply the Combo updater Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 and follow with a software update to pick up the most recent security updates.
Then, if it still doesn't work go to the manufacturer's website where you may pick up an update for your printer.
But if the Combo update has not been done you should do it any way.

Problem after upgrading to Snow Leopard from Tiger

Hello all!
I have an old macbook pro 15" purchased on 2007. It's model is macbookpro3,1 and it runs Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.11. Recently I upgrade the system to Snow Leopard. Everything seems to be fine except the laptop runs much hotter.
At first I don't know why but then I found out that on the Energy Saver menu, there is no options to select between the intel onboard graphics card and nVidia 8600M GT. And it seems the system selects the 8600M GT as the default card, therefore my GPU temperature is always about 60 Celsius degree.
Another problem is the Airport card is also hot, it's always about 60C degree (according to iStat Pro)
So anybody has same problem with me? It'd be great if you could help me figuring out these issues.
Thanks a lot!!!

Are you sure there is an Intel onboard graphics processor in your MacBook Pro? AFAIK, Mac laptops do not have multiple graphics processors -- MBP's have a single fairly powerful one with dedicated video memory & regular MacBooks have only a somewhat less powerful one that use shared system memory.
For example, the MacBook Pro (Mid 2007, 2.4/2.2GHz) Technical Specifications make no mention of an Intel GPU.
