Problem after upgrading to Lion

I have a Beyonwiz PVR. I have it connected to my iMac via an ethernet cable. I have never had a problem accessing my computer from the Wiz and being able to watch movies stored on my hard drive. After upgrading my iMac to Lion I now find that my Wiz no longer detects my PC??? I have not changed any settings on the Wiz and file sharing is set up on my iMac.
Any ideas??? This is clearly as a result of upgrading to Lion as it worked perfectly well before.

can anyone explain why this may be happening?

Printer Problems after upgrade to Lion

Does anyone have this printer problem after upgrading to Lion. A perfectly functioning laser printer on my network prior to upgrade - now the network seems to drop the printer and show it as "not connected" approximately every 30 minutes ???

Hi Paul,
Been away and just got back to this issue.
Thanks for the info. The OKI site has now posted a list of all their Printers and their relative drivers for compatibility with "Lion". My machine is due an updated driver from OKI in Mid Decmber according to this notice.
Meanwhile, as the printer does work with some tweaking I guess I will use the work around until the new driver is available. My legacy printers that i use for special jobs both work and as I do not have the disks for their drivers I am loathe to re-set the printer system at this time.
Thanks for your assistance in this issue.
Regards,
Mike, Rustington.

Sleep problem after upgrading to Lion

I have a late 2009 MBP with 2 user accounts setup. I normally log out of my user account and then close lid which puts it in sleep with the indicator light blinking. Now after updating to Lion, it doesn't seem to go to sleep, the light is constantly on and it is gets very warm. I don't have any external monitor attached or anything else. I just tried leaving lid open and choosing "sleep" from login screen, that seems to work right but I don't like to have the lid open. Now with the computer at sleep with lid open, closing lid will do the same as above. Any ideas?

First do this:
Reinstalling Lion Without the Installer
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alterhatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
Second, update to 10.7.1 via Software Update or direct download - Apple OS X Lion 10.7.1.

Sound volume problem after upgraded to Lion Mac OS X 10.7? Any help?

I have just upgrade to 10.7 Lion last night. Whenever I change the volume, no matter by pressing the volume up or down button on the keyboard, or using the mouse to change the volume on the top bar, the computer hangs for a while, with no sound, for a few seconds, the youtube video reset or hang, even the Safari hangs for a few seconds.
Anyone has the same problem? Any fix on this?

Another thread suggested this fix see screens
Removal of the following files
~/Library/Preferences/Audio/*.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.soundpref.plist
This is a possibility for a fix.

Is anybody have problem after upgrading mountain lion to 10.8.2?

I have a macbook pro with 16 meg ram
I have a new problem since I upgrade to mountain lion 10.8.2 : My computer freeze and the only way to make it works is to reboot.
Is someone have this same problem?
Any information about that?
Thanks
Pierre

I'm a similar issue, but mine freezes up on almost any program and can't really see a constant reason why. I'm going to try the combo updates as sig suggested to see if that helps.

'Mouse' problems after upgrading to Lion

Hi there,
I use the two side buttons on my mouse to expose all windows (ie when I 'squeeze' the mouse it performs this function).
However since upgrading to 10.7 Lion my mouse no longer does this and trying to correct and apply these settings again in Preferences still doesn't fix it.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hello:
If I understand your issue, the F3 key will do what you wish.
Barry
P.S. The magic mouse has no such buttons...unlike the old mighty mouse.

Problem with Dreamweaver CS4 after upgrade to Lion

I am having a problem after upgrading to Lion, with my Dreamweaver CS4 . When I try to use the bold button the text completely dissapears from the screen in design view The text is still there as it shows up in preview and also shows up in code view. Has anyone else had similar problems since the upgrade? and is there going to be a fix for it.

There are a number of known compatibility issues with Creative Suites and Lion

Can't see your specific issue mentioned though.
Perhaps report it to Adobe via the Bug Report form giving full details

Problem with colors after upgrading to Lion

After upgrading to Lion, I could no longer distinguish between very light greys (e.g., #f8f8f8) and white (#ffffff) on my laptop monitor. The difference is readily apparent on many websites.
If I plug my laptop into an external monitor, the problem goes away, and stays away even AFTER unplugging it.
Neither recalibrating the color profile nor rebooting have any effect.
Any ideas?

iPhoto is not part of Lion. It comes with a Mac. So, the version you own is the one that came with your Mac. If you want the newest version, you'll have to purchase it from the App Store.

Significant slowdown of Time Machine after upgrade to Lion; indexing problem

After upgrading to Lion over the weekend I notice a significant slowdown of Time Machine processing. I assumed the first backup or two would take some time but it's been a couple of days. The process always hangs up at the "Indexing backup" stage. It takes a couple of hours to finish.
I found several threads relating to slowed down backups on Lion, most seem to hang at the "Preparing" stage (not the same symptom) but I did find some good diagnostic pointers. I installed the widget to see what kind of messages were being produced and found a few dozen "Waiting for index to be ready (100)" messages at the end of the stream. Further research - this is not a good thing :-) It seems a couple of such messages can be ok, but this many usually indicates a problem. I'm going to discount the possibility of a hardware failure because everything was perfectly fine up to the point I made the upgrade. Plus the prepare and copy seem to proceed at the expected speed (I watched the most recent cycle just to be sure).
Here is the full message log (it's still running at the moment):

I further found the advice and instructions on how to run the disk utility on the sparsebundle. I did a verify and repair, and the results came back that the drive appears to be ok (it did not say that it explicitly repaired anything).
But the problem remains.
I use a 1TB Time Capsule with plenty of free capacity (only half full). The TC and my MacBook are both hardwired into the home network, networking speed has never been an issue.
I'd sure hate to delete the backup file and start from scratch, there's over a year's worth of data there and I have, occassionally, wanted to go in there and pick up a downlevel or subsequently deleted file.
Any advice on other diagnostics or repair options to take? Thanks!
Paul

After posting I decided to keep trying to slog my way through the troubleshooting guide. Some of the steps are beyond my understanding but I did follow the advice in #D2 to delete the .Spotlight-V100 file from the sparsebundle. That action does seem to have done the trick, the backups are now completing in normal time. I ran a couple just to be sure. I've verified the backups with BackupLoupe and entered the Time Machine, all appears to be in order and as expected. The only odd side effect is that the backup volume is no longer ejected after completion but that might just be an artifact of all my mounting/de-mounting and playing with Finder. Anyway a very small price to pay for what looks to be a working system again.
Hopefully the good behavior will last through a few days and a few reboots :-)

Problems with extrenal drive after upgrade to Lion

Hello,
after upgrading to Lion last week I am experiencing some problems with my LaCie 1 TB FireWire (800) external drive.
The problem is not that big however. When I delete files on the external drive they do not appear in the Trash Bin.
However when I unmount and again mount the partitions using the Disk Utility the deleted files do appear in the
Trash Bin. The external drive has 3 partitions: 2 X Mac OS X Journaled and one FAT. The above described problem
appers on all partitions. I performed repair and verify to all partitions but Disk Utility says that everything is OK! Any idea ?
P.S. With Snow Leopard I have never experienced such problem.
Thank you!

DiskWarrior is on
Step 5: Locating directory date...
Speed reduced by disk malfunction: 339,474, er make that 340,239, er make that 341,327....
should I stop it or keep going??!!!!

Problems with address book after upgrading to Lion.

I have lost all my contacts and if I try to add a new contact it's gone after I close and reopen the address book.
Same thing if I import for example my gmail contacts.
But there is more. If I add a new group I can't edit the new, so it's stuck as 'untitled group' (and gone if I quit the address book and reopen it).
..and If I add a new contact I can't edit it once it's added. I simply don't have the edit button.
Someone having the same trouble? Or any suggestions how to solve it?
Thanks!
(So this is after upgrading to Lion and with the new address book 6.0)

I'm a super loyal Apple customer for over 20 years. But I have to say, even though Apple has unparalleled customer service, their responsiveness to software issues is non-existent.
I had a problem with iMovie a couple of years back that involved 40 hours of hard work for a client, only to have all my work lost due to a software bug. Many, many others had the same issue. Apple never acknowledged the issue. I doubt that they will acknowledge this issue.
That's shameful.
I email to various groups, including a local residential group to which I add or subtract residents that move in and out of the neighborhood. AddressBook is now totally useless because I can't a new resident to the existing group! AddressBook 6 has been out how many months now? Not a peep from Apple with this issue!

I can't hear sound after upgrading to lion

I have this little annoying problem with my iMac after upgrading to Lion OSX. After waking up my iMac I can't hear any sound from internal speakers, ie: only video on Youtube, but no sound, but whilst pressing volume up/down button I can hear beep. When it happens So I have to restart system everytime it happens. Anyone any ideas or maybe someone out there has the same problem?

I'he double checked everything, only 1 output device (internal speakers). As I said before, it is weird because I can play iTunes and can hear "beep", but neither youtube sound, nor game sound or internet radio seems to be working, no sound whatsoever. But this time system didn't go to sleep, it has just happened suddenly.... Restart again then!

After upgrading to lion Time Capsule is solid yellow

Hi
After upgrading to lion I am experiencing a lot of problems with time caspule
1. backup fail: it starts and than fails (error message and yellow warning triangle)
2. unable to connect to TC disk, neither from airport utility, nor from Finder
3. Airport Utility hangs while trying to manually modify configuration (rainbow weel).
After a lot of reboot, reset, disk rename, time capsule reconfiguration etc etc AND TC DISK REINITIALIZATION (ALLA BACKUP LOST!)
now backup seems to work and I can browse files in Time Machine
BUT
Time Capsule is a steady YELLOW and Airport utility says there is an error on disk (The disk is not working)
Can somebody help me.
This all happened after Lion installation. Not a problem before
Franco

Hi William
The disk is the internal Time Capsule Disk. It's a 1Tb model.
My iMac is localized in Italian
So I write here the Italian message and a possible translation
The first error message I get opening Airport Utility is:
Utility Airport ha trovato una Time Capsule 802.11n (2.a generazione) che segnala problemi
(AirPort Utility has found a Time Capsule 802.11n (2nd generation), which indicates problems)
If I press on "Continue" I enter a page that says
"Problema 1 di 1: Il disco Time Capsule non funziona"
(Problem 1 of 1: The Time Capsule Disk doesn't work)
"Si è verificato un problema con il Disco Time Capsule. Collega un disco rigido USB al tuo disco Time Capsule e utilizza il pannello Dischi di Utility Airport per archiviare i dati ed eseguire il backup."
(There was a problem with the Time Capsule disk. Connect a USB hard drive to your Time Capsule disk and use Disk Utility Airport panel to store data and run the backup.)
While if I go to the manual settings and I select the disk,
on the disk data info I have
Stato S.M.A.R.T.: Non funziona
(S.M.A.R.T status: Not working)
As I said before, apart from that problem, everything else (time machine, backups and file recovery) looks working good (until proven otherwise eh eh)
I don't know if to worry about the disk but I find suspicious that everything just started after Lion installation.
I called the call center and they just said to return the TC for disk repair (have to pay, warranty expired).
I told them about Lion installation fact and they said it looks like a coincidence but actually it is likely that after a disk initialization or a big amount of data writing the TC disk may break (WHAT ?!?) and the Apple guy even suggested me to buy an external disk that is less expensive and give less problem than a TC !!!!
(I can agree on that now, but I was surprised to hear that from them )
Thank you very much for any help.
I hope this info helps
Franco Andrea
