Why does completed encrypted disk have converted size of "-none-"?

Under Lion 10.7.3 I've encrypted both partitions on an external drive.
I'm confused how the two partitions can display different converted sizes if both are indeed truly completed:
one indicates converted size is same as total size, but the other says converted size is "-none-"!
Can anyone explain this discrepancy in an apparently completed CoreStorage conversion operation to create two encrypted partitions?
Refer to the bolded text in the data displayed for the two partitions in the "Diskutil cs list" output shown in the postscript.
Regards,
Colin
PS: Here is the command output from "diskutil CoreStorage list":

I agree it is quirky. I've gotten this to work on another drive with three partitions where I successfully encrypted 2 partitions (the 3rd is NTFTS so I didn't touch that).
I think I will call Apple Support and see if they can clarify what the man page does not!

  • Why does itunes in France have a complete lack of english language content on the TV programmes... prefering to release dubbed programmes and not the original english language content, surely it will cost nothing to release both?

    Why does itunes in France have a complete lack of english language content... prefering to release dubbed programmes and not the original english language content?
    It would be just as easy to release both a dubbed version and then a subtitled version.
    I am a native english speaker but live in France. My father has just moved over to live with me in France and speaks very little French.
    The price for a television series is very often more than a dvd box set but does not offer language options.
    My French is passable but I would still prefer to hear the programme in English.
    Using itunes uk is not an option as my cards are french or english with a french postal address.
    The content has been adapted for the french site all i want is to access the original.
    The series i have been trying to buy is HBOs 'boardwalk empire'.
    The stupid thing is to please my father i would buy up most the HBO, BBC and Channel 4 content a cost of a couple of thousand euros.

    Try giving Apple feedback: http://www.apple.com/feedback and also contact the Apple headquarters at http://www.apple.com/contact  We are all fellow users and not Apple employees and often raise questions like yours ourselves.  If enough make Apple aware of a market/need then something may be done about it.
    France has come a very long way with regard to other languages.  When I lived in France, mid-880s, there was an entire Ministry devoted to the purity of the French language...that was the time the PC came out.  A TV news person was cashiered for using the term 'computer' on-air instead of the French created word 'ordinateur'.  They took the language extremely seriously at that time.  At least today there is recognition and even use of English by the masses

  • Why does iTunes say I have two different total numbers of movies?

    On the sidebar, it lists 371 Movies. When I'm in Movies with everything listed, the number at the bottom next to total number of hours is 372 Movies. 372 Movies is the correct number of movies. I have all of those movies also loaded into iTunes on my laptop running 10.7. These are all movies which are hosted locally on a hard drive; none of them are iCloud downloads or matches. So why does it think I have 1 less movie on the side bar? Is there a way to find out if one particular film hasn't loaded properly or can't be read for some reason? Thanks

    The sidebar lists # of unplayed (not completed) items.
    They should have a blue dot (not played) or half blue dot (started but not completed) next to the name.

  • Why does PDF Optimizer no longer reduce size after CS4 upgrade?

    I've been able to successfully reduce the size of the PDFs created from my Illustrator files for years using Advanced> PDF Optimizer in Acrobat Pro. Upgraded to CS4 last week. Now it seems to have reduced everything, but the files are still huge. When I check Space Audit 96% or more is taken up by "piece information".
    I've tried changing the Adobe PDF presets, the Document Raster Effects settings, and outlining all text in Illustrator to see if that made a difference. Nothing. The frustrating thing is i've done this for years with no problem. HELP?!?!

    Subject: Why does PDF Optimizer no longer reduce size
    after CS4 upgrade?
    Hi, I've found the solution because today it happened to me as well.
    Just go to "PDF Optimizer", then click to "Discard user data" and finally to
    "Discard private data from other applications": in this way you delete any
    information left by Illustrator and your file's size will get reduced.
    It works.
    Good luckThanks so much! That works like a charm!!

  • Why does m4v need to be converted again

    Hi. I converted a dvd movie I bought into the ipod format .m4v using another converting software program I have. I then imported it into the videos section of my itunes. It would not load into my ipod unless i convertd it again using the itunes conver for ipod option. Why does this need to be converted again for ipod if its already in a .m4v and is there any way i can fix this so when im originally converting my movie with my converting software I can eliminate this last step in itunes. It takes up to 5 hours to convert in itunes. thanks

    I should also add that I am using a AVS video converter which has an IPod 5.5 converting option that makes my movies Highest available quality H.264, 30fps 640x480
    There are more Ipod options availble but im using the Highest quality available one. Maybe I should be using one of these:
    ipod 5x- NTFS Standard quality H.264 29.97fps, 320X240
    ipod 5x- PAL standard quality H.264 24fps, 320X240
    ipod 5x- low quality H264., 20fps, 320X240
    ipod 5x - Best quality (MPEG4, 24fps, 320X240)
    ipod 5x- economy quality (MPEG4, 20fps, 176X144)
    ipod 5x- for tv output (MPEG4, 24fps, 512X384)

  • I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great

    I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great!

    The fact that you can receive means you have a valid e mail address, and have established the connection to the incoming server, so all of that works.  Since the send does not work, that means your outgoing server is rejecting whatever settings you used formthe outgoing set up.  Try them again. 
    Google your particular isp, and ipad and many times you will find the exact settings needed for your isp.  Or tell us here, and soneone else may be on the same isp.  Some mail services need you to change a port, or have a unique name for the outgoing server.  
    Kep trying.

  • Why does front row not have simple organization?

    I currently have a hard drive hooked into my macmini which is hooked up to my TV. On my hard drive I have over 1000 movies, all purchased through iTunes. However when I use front row and i goto the movie section, I have to scroll through every movie to get to the one I want. There's no way to scroll by letter, only one by one. This is horrible and takes forever. Can apple do an update that makes the right button on the apple remote for scrolling letter by letter. For example, you click the right button to goto movies starting with B, C, D, E, F, etc. Then the down button for one by one scrolling. Also, why does front row not have genres? AppleTV does. Why not incorporate that into front row? Think, Apple, Think.

    You can have sub-folders in the Movies folder and arrange your movies alphabetically that way.
    But if you want to alert Apple to your idea, then use this link:

  • Why does my iMac only have 1 GB of memory?  I hardly have anything on here.  I cannot download software update in order to get Turbo Tax to work.

    Put in more RAM. Visit OWC, DataMem, or Crucial.com to purchase memory for your model. You computer would have more memory had you put more in a long time ago.

  • Why does my application icons have a cirle with a slash on them?

    why does my application icons have a cirle with a slash on them?

    That means those applications cannot be run on your computer.
    There are many different reasons why that situation could arise, but without more information all we can do is speculate / guess. For example, you upgraded the OS and the apps will not run in the new OS.
    If you need more specific answers.ost back with more information, e.g. what version of Mac OS X? when did this first occur?

  • Why does my Apple TV have to frequently reactivate some channels

    Why does my Apple TV have to frequently reactivate some channels, such as HBO Go and PBS and several others that I know were already activated.

    Maybe a software update reset something, maybe the broadcasters require this at intervals, could someone have logged/signed out?  Sorry don't get those channels in UK, but once Netflix made me log in again, others seem ok.
    You could send some feedback if this happens very often:

    Agreed.  Even the iPhone has multiple built-in keyboards to choose from.
