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.

Is anyone having problems with keynote after upgrading to Lion?

After upgrading my system to Lion, my keynote presentations are becoming a nightmare. They crash all the time, and are becoming significantly slower, not just due to the autosave but after making just a few movements the beach ball appears and takes forever for me to be able to edit the document again. When I try to put into presentation mode the computer stops, sometimes I even lost the images inside the saved prasentation, and when I tried to recover from the auto saved versions, they were corrupted also. I talked to the apple support here in Brazil and after running all kinds procedures to check and fix the disk and hardware even in the safe mode, it still remained with the same problem. Another suggestion was to reinstall the keynote, and I even bought a new version from the app store even though the old one was updated. Again, nothing changed. Does anyone have the same problem or knows what to do?

Hi Thomas - listen, I want to tell you that we aren't necessarily all in the same boat...what I mean is that this problem almost ruined my business and I spent a long time reading the dozen or so threads in this board, and tried solutions people suggested in each one. I had two separate problems...the first was like yours, and it was indeed solved by the time machine save setting mentioned above. The other was that I couldn't get an object selected with a click of the mouse every tenth time or so...I had to click onto a different slide and then come back to mine. I started turning off every single piece of hardware and software one by one, in search of a conflict. It turns out that my Apple Magic Mouse was the problem. I switched it to a plain MS wireless mouse and problem solved. *****, but it let's me continue. My point is that too many people are using Keynote just fine for any of us to throw in the towel and say it's universally and irreversibly broken. There are different bugs in play, but you have to go on the assumption that there's a way out if you can spot what's not quite right. Sorry I don't have your specific solution, but this mindset is what saved me from jumping ship to PPT.

Problems with Bluetooth after upgrading to Lion?

I just upgraded to Lion and now when I plug my cinema display onto my MacBook bluetooth shows as unavailable. Sometimes it stops the trackpad working too. I took it into Regent Street Apple Store and the same thing happened there, they seem to think it's a software bug.

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Problem with iPhoto after upgrading to Lion

I just upgraded my IMac to Lion, but IPhoto did not upgrade. When I go to the Appstore, it looks like I need to buy the IPhoto upgrade. Is that right?

Problems with Mail after Upgrading to Lion

I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion (which is the most updated OS my Mac can run)
Now Mail doesn't recognise my me.com password and I can't send or receive emails from my me.com account on the upgraded Mac - although the iCloud account emails work just fine.
On my other devices (iPad and a non-upgraded Mac running Snow Leopard) can send and receive from the me.com account just fine
Any help or thoughts would be much appreciated

It would always be easier to fix the Mail problems.

Problems with Mail after upgrading to 10.9.1

I am running into problems with Mail after installing 10.9.1. I had NO problems with Mail prior to this update.
Problems I have encountered so far are:
- I don't receive some e-mails on my Gmail account.
- I have sent e-mails that supposedly got "sent" but do not show up in my Sent box both on mail and on web Gmail. My Outbox is empty also.
Has anyone encountered the same problems and found a solution?
Thanks in advance!

Yes Paul I have, but no solution. I cannot send email. My ISP uses a smtp mail server for sending and It will not log in. Have had ISP on phone and checked all settings. Can only put it down to Mavericks.
It worked OK for a week after upgrading then stopped. So now having to use web mail to send email.
Strange thing is I receive mail OK, just cant send.

Anyone else having problems with Mail after installing Mountain Lion?

Since upgrading to mountain lion, I have had a number of problems with Mail. At the moment, it is predominantly when my desktop imac goes to sleep overnight. In the morning, it will not receive mail. The app will not close, so I force quit it. Trying to reopen Mail after that just does not happen, so I have to restart my machine to get things going again. Any tips?

If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitirion & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

[SOLVED] Problem with murmur after upgrading to 1.2.3-4

I've been running Murmur on my server for a long time without problems. The last version I had running was 1.2.3-3. After upgrading to 1.2.3-4, the already-running murmurd process crashed after a while (some hours after the upgrade, after constant use) and I'm unable to restart it. The message I get is:
:: Starting murmur [BUSY]
<W>2012-01-07 22:06:11.133 Initializing settings from /etc/murmur.ini (basepath /etc)

[DONE]
and in murmur.log nothing gets written. Downgrading to 1.2.3-3 works, but I thought I'd look for the cause of the problem.
After poking around a bit, I noticed that my murmur database (/var/lib/murmur/murmur.sqlite) belongs to a nonexistent user with a UID of 86 and a GID of 86, as well as the whole /var/log/murmur/ directory. I also noticed that a new murmur user and group with UID and GID of 1007 and 1000 exists on the system now. It seems that running:
sudo chown -R murmur:murmur /var/lib/murmur/ /var/log/murmur/
fixes the problem. Perhaps the update deleted my pre-existing murmur user and group and recreated them?
Edit: Guess I should mark this as [SOLVED].
Edit edit:
Also turns out the whole /var/lib/murmur/ directory has to belong to murmur, not just the sqlite file.

Wifi problem with Mac after upgrade to Mavericks

I just upgraded to Mavericks but something wrong with my wifi.
i can get internet through LAN link from Airport but not through wifi even i can receive an IP address
i tried connect to hotspot with my iphone5s and it works.
Other devices can use wifi just fine through Airport, just not my Mac using Mavericks
In conclusion,
Airport should be fine because my other devices works.
Mac wifi should be fine too because i can connect using hotspot.
so why it's not working when i connect Mac to Airport?

I was having problems connecting to Wifi with my Macbook Pro (!2010), after upgrading to Mavericks. I was on the phone repeateadly with AT&T because I have Uverse. Testing everything (channels, signal strength) and had techs come out to check the line, ports, switches, etc. When I hardwired the Mac into the Uverse router, it worked fine. This rulled out any problems with the line in.
I considered getting a repeater but then I read that repeaters are not really good and it is better to reconfigure a router to act as an access point on the network. Plunked down about $80 for a Belkin AC750 router at Best Buy. In the setup it has an option to set it up as an access point only. Clicked that, connected it to my Motorola NVG510 Uverse modem and then connected to the Belkin router from my Mac. Voila! It's been a solid 11+ Mbs ever since (my plan maxes at 12Mbs). Connection is still solid and life if good even though it ***** to plunk down another $80 for a second router. But it was worth it just to get rid of the headaches.
I think the wifi capabilities of the Motorola NVG510 modem are the cause of a lot of problems with AT&T Uverse issues, particularly for Mac owners. I think it was also causing my Airport Expresses to drop occasionally.... Few minutes of music then drop... music drop.... All gone now.
I don't know if you are on Uverse but if so, I highly recommend configuring a second router as an acces point (it can be any old router you still might have - the setup is just a bit trickier because you have to do it manually).
Good luck.

Problems with plugins after upgrading to win8

Hi
I made the upgrade to Windows 8 and now several PS plugins causes Photoshop CS6 to "Stop Working And need to close". I have uninstalled
and reinstalled plugins and still the same problem. As this happens with different plugins from different vendors I am led to believe this is
not a 3rd party problem, but rather a problem with PS in win8. Happens with plugins from Niksoft and RedGiant. Needless to say I have
all the latest software and updates - legally purchased.
I haven't done much research into this, posting here is my first step after googeling didn't help. Is this a common problem? Does anyone
know a fix to this? It's of such importance that I am already considering reinstalling win7.

As an update on this,
After I installed the latest Windows Update system fix packages that were released today most of the plugins now work. I am not 100% sure I can credit MS with fixing this, as I fiddled with alot with my graphics card trying to make this work at the same time as I updated. I will have to do some more testing on this to able to say exactly what was the problem.
I'm installing win7+ps on a virtual machine so I can use that when absolutely needed for the plugins still not working - guess I can live with that until certain 3rd party vendors sort things out.
Allright Noel, I get your point - but you have to be downright difficult to be reading my initial question as if I was seeking support on 3rd party software as such.

Problems with Mail after upgrading to 10.5.6

I was using my mail program without problems, until I upgraded to v 10.5.6 - when I tried to 'get new mail' I received the following message:
There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for the account or try again.
The server error encountered was: The connection to the server on port 110 timed out.
I contacted my email provider (shaw.ca) and there are no problems with their server. So, I added another email account to check if it was the program, and I'm getting the same response with the new account I added.
Has anyone come across this issue? Any advice? Thank you!!
