Is time machine in Lion not compatible with Netgear Stora AFP

When I try to select my neargrear stora disk for time machnie back-up I get an AFP error. Is time machine in Lion no longer compatible with netgrear stora?

Apple did make some security changes, and many 3rd-party NASs weren't ready.
I don't know about that particular one, or the exact message you got, but check out #C16 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.

I downloaded Mavericks and now my WD Smartware that I use for Time Machine is no longer compatible with this OSX version? How do I make that unit compatible? olefromca

I agree entirely, been messing with this since the upgrade to Mavericks but I didn't find it quite as easy as uninstalling the WD smartware as it still operates when you plug the drive back in - I think it gets loaded onto the drive and runs from within (?). The advice from WD was that time machine was faulty and I should contact Apple...thanks guys!
Anyway, for the OP's benefit, this is what I found:
1. My problem was that time machine couldn't see any further back than before the Mavericks install, but if I opened up and interrogated the WD drive, the old backups were still there.
2. When TM started doing new backups, it overwrote the ones that it could see, not the oldest ones on the drive. This indicated to
me that the WD software had somehow partitioned off the old backups and excluded that part of the drive from being overwritten. Of course, as the drive was practically full, it meant that any new backups wouldn't fit in the available space.....
3. The only way I could find to resolve this was to use the disc utility to erase and repartition the external drive. This will obviously remove all of the old files and backups, but I was more concerned about keeping a current profile as backup rather than a load of stuff from months ago.
4. Anyway, what happens after the eraseure has completed is that you get the WD icon on the desktop, and you're invited to install the software - this means the software has now been deleted. Juts don't reinstall it, just let TM do it's backup and all is well.
Usual disclaimers and warnings about keeping another copy of your system etc. obviously apply, and I know this is a radical move to delete all your old data but it worked for me. I guess I didn't appreciate that you could use the external drive without the software that came with it and just followed the screen guide.
I'm also aware that if you don't want to use TM to do a complete restore and only want to find one old version of a document, this is difficult. However, you can then install the WD software and find the file but you'll then have to do this all again.....

I can't tell you why, but I can tell you that Apple published the list of supported hardware on its website quite a while ago. The oldest MacBook Pro model that supports Mountain Lion is the Mid/Late 2007 model. You have the late 2006 model.

Why is Mountain Lion not compatible with my Mac Pro?

Downloading Mountain Lion to my Mac Pro (running Snow Leopard OS 10.6.8) fails with this warning" not compatible with this computer". Why is this happening? What is the solution?

Apple didn't drop graphics cards. What they did is force 64b boot mode. What that means is any Mac that does have a EFI64, Mac Pro 2006-2007 cannot use Mountain Lion at all. And any machine using certain video cards that don't have 64b drivers are also not able to use it.
It is a shame that they decided to do it, but that is the way of large companies no days. There is no real reason to upgrade to ML unless you really need notifications, iCloud, and iMessage on your Mac.
What is sad is they removed the ability for people to buy Lion. So if you didn't go to lion you have already lost some apps in the app store, cause they require Lion or Mountain Lion.

Mountain lion not compatible with MBP core 2 duo

Hi there,
I have an MBP 17" which has been running on Leopard until the other day. I wanted to upgrade to Mountain Lion so that I can utilise some of its features. So I upgraded to Snow Leopard as indicated on the Apple Store web pages. I bought the disc and had it mailed to me and have installed and clicked and ticked and restarted and done all the things asked of me in the process to get the OS to the most up-to-date version. (10.6.8)
Now, when I go to Apple's App Store it gives me this message!
We could not complete your purchase.
We could not complete your purchase. OS X Mountain Lion is not compatible with this computer.
So my question is, where do I go from here? Why can they 'not complete my purchase' ? What is 'not compatible' ?

Have lion on 5 year old 20" mac desktop. tried to download and received a message mountain lion not compatible with this computer. anyone else have this problem?

have lion 10.7.4 up graded from tiger 10.5.8. tried to download mountain lion but received a message that mountain lion is not compatible with my computer. anyone have this problem or suggestion?

It's actually not the chip... it's the drivers for the video card. this is what my friend who does IT work said.
"The drivers for your Mac's video card are not 64bit compatible even though the computer itself is. Mountain Lion has done away with all 32bit OS components so it only runs on full 64bit MAcs now"
So even though I updated my video card to a newer version and my computer itself is 64bit... apple didn't create a driver for it that was 64 bit. My hardware is fine for this update and the chip can handle it. It can handle all my 64 bit programs just fine. It's apple forcing me to update and buy a new expensive computer. So much for long lasting computer... they last long but they won't be supported very long.
Why not release a version of mountain lion that supports 32 bit graphics alongside the 64 bit? Wasn't that what grand central was going to accomplish? This is rubbish.

Time machine Auto Backup not working with Maverick OS

When I boot up my iMac Desktop my Time Machine desktop icon stays yellow and doesn't auto backup and turn green like before. I have reset the Preferences several times to try and fix the problem but it still has to be manually backed up. Is there a fix available?

I have had success with the following.
I removed the backup drive from the Time Machine system preferences.
Shutdown
Disconnect the drive from the Mac
Reboot
Connect the drive to the Mac
An automatic dialogbox came up asking me if the drive I just connected should be used for Time Machine.
I selected Yes (or whatever the affirmative was)
I let the backup run.
Ever since then I have been whatching the automatic backups work successfully.
YMMV but I wish you the best of luck.

Installing a non-Host printer in a Virtual Machine that's not compatible with Host OS

I have a printer (Canon i9900) that works fine under Windows 7 x64 (through a USB Print Server) but is "not supported" in Windows 8.1 (on a Surface Pro 3). I have installed on the Surface Pro 3 a Win7 x64 virtual machine using the free version of VMWare, but have been unsuccessful in installing the USB Print Server (Arkview). The (latest) printer driver seems to install, at least no error messages are displayed. I have not yet tried installing the printer using a direct USB connection, since that is a sub-optimal configuration for my network.
Am I spinning my wheels in thinking that what I am trying to do is not possible. If possible, do I need an upgraded version of VMWare to do this? If I need a Host-compatible USB print server, any suggestions? Most of the ones I seen do not indicate support for my (older) Canon i9900 printer.
Thanks for any suggestions. I'm just trying to extend the useful life of this (wide format, expensive-to-replace) older printer.

Is setting the network to BRIDGED rather than NAT a viable solution? Any configuration issues? Can I do this using the wireless adapter on the Surface Pro 3?

How do I get access to my microsoft word, excel etc? Is lion not compatible with word, if so it you be mentioned prior to someone purchasing.

Have installed Lion, but Lion says it will not support microsoft office programs words. Is this a major glitch with Lion? I cannot believe Apple would create a operation system not conducive to running word, excell etc.!!! Anyone know what the fix is?

There is no glitch. Lion does support Office and Word. You can use Office 2008 or 2011.

Provider is not compatible with this version of Oracle client

I am trying to access Oracle(10.2) DB from a .NET 2.0 Console Application.(.exe) in a Win 2008.Web code is also on the same Win 2008 system
The Web application works fine and connects to teh DB , but when I try to run any of the Console applications it gives the error as:
Provider is not compatible with this version of Oracle client.
The Oracle.Dataaccess.dll versions which are available in GAC are 1.102.2.20 and 2.102.2.20.
and the Oracle client installed is 10.2.0.100
The complete error message is:
Unhandled Exception: Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException The provider is not compatible with the version of Oracle client
at Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleInit.Initialize()
at Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleParameter..ctor(String parameterName, OracleDbType type, ParameterDirection direction)
Can any of you help me find a reason for this error.
Thanks in advance!!

Hi Greg,
I found out another reason this error was appearing.I am compiling the Console application in a 32-bit machine on 32-bit Oracle client.
The pre-compiled DLL and EXE is then exported to a 64-bit Win 2008 machine.
Also,The code has been compiled with ‘Any CPU’ .
The Web Application on the same system is working because the "Enable 32-bit Applications" is set to True.
Are there any DLLs or EXEs created when compiling in the 32-bit machine which is not compatible with the 64-bit machine?
Please help!!
Thanks,
Veena

Latest Adobe Flash Player version is not compatible with our android tablet - can I install an earlier AFP version that will work?

Hi...
...and thanks for reading this:
We have a Nextbook Premium8 tablet that is hardly two years old. We had to reset to original factory settings, and in doing so lost our Adobe Flash Payer app. Upon trying to re-install AFP, we received a message that our tablet wan not compatible with the latest AFP version.
Is there an earlier, archived AFP version that will work with our tablet, and if so, which version - Flash Player 11.1 for Android 4.0 (11.1.115.81) from Sept 10, 2013, possibly???
It seems almost unbelievable that our tablet should be this obsolete for use with Adobe Flash Player after such a short period of only two years.
Thank you once again,
Robert Lucas

It's not you, it's us. We don't make Flash Player for Android anymore.
The last working version published for Android is missing a year and a half of security updates at this point, so I would highly recommend against running it.
The details on why Adobe dropped support for Android are here, but yeah, we haven't released an Android Flash Player since late 2012.
Adobe roadmap for the Flash runtimes | Adobe Developer Connection
There are a few alternatives that you can use to get Flash on your phone. They're mostly cloud-based web browsers, where they run Flash in the cloud and stream the content down to your phone. It works surprisingly well.
A cursory Google search for "Android Browser Flash Player" turns up these options:

I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion and found out it was not compatible with my HP printer (HP photosmart C5580) so I called Apple and asked how to get Mountain Lion off and Snow Leopard back on. The Tech told me to

I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion. Then I found out it was not compatible with my HP Printer (HP Photosmart C5580 all-in-one) so I called Apple support and the tech told me to erase the hard drive instead of going in the time machine. Well I did that and then it took about three hours three days a week for about three weeks on the phone with an apple tech to get all my stuff back on my computer. I have had trouble with my printer (won't do the scan anymore and wasn't printing on my DVDs. Also the computer keeps freezing up when it is in the sleep mode, etc.
When I tried to list my problem on this forum it lists your OS at the bottom and mine had Mountain Lion listed as what I was using so apparently it didn't erase it. Want to know how to get Mountain Lion off and put my Snow Leopard on so things start working right.

Go to the  menu/About This Mac - what OS version shows there?
Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
Revert to a Previous OS X
Revert to Snow Leopard
If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience.

I want to go back to Snow Leopard 10.6 from Lion. Quicken 2007 is not compatible with Lion.

I want to go back to Snow Leopard 10.6 from Lion 10.7.2. Quicken 2007 is not compatible with Lion and I don't like Quicken Essentials 2012.

Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

Can not fine external hard drive for time machine sence lion was installed

I can not fine external hard drive for time machine sence lion was installed, it don't reconise it at all.

I have a Mac Mini (late 2009) and I have an iomega 1TB external hard drive connected to my mini via firewire and usb (usb allows me to use the usb ports on the external 1TB drive to daisy chain other devices). Since I installed Lion, my Time Machine and this 1TB drive (and its partitions) is finicky. Sometimes it is mounted and sometimes it is not. This issue has only surfaced post Snow Leopard and in the Lion era. I am not the first to say this but the whole reason I went Mac was b/c of Vista. I am beginning to think that Lion is the new Vista. Sorry for the latter, just venting... b/c this ain't the first issue with Lion.
