After installing Lion MBP 15´ W87452HWX91 (late 2009) doesn´t go in standby

Hello , after installing Lion standby not works. The harddrive sleeps not and also when i close the MBP the Harddrive will not sleep.

If you choose Sleep from the Apple menu, does it sleep?
When you close the lid, does it appear to go to sleep and then wake right back up, or not sleep at all?

B(lack)SOD after install windows 7 on iMac late 2009?

I know it's been covered a million times, and I have read the forum and support pages and tried everything imaginable, but I still get a plain black screen after I install windows 7 on my late 2009 iMac 27" macos 10.8.5.
I know this is because the display drivers are not installed, and I have downloaded the correct drivers from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3983?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
...and followed the instructions to the letter from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3173
...but it still doesnt work.
For whatever reason, it is not installing the drivers from my MS-DOS (FAT) formatted USB drive. I have the 'drivers' folder and the 'AutoUnattend.xml' file in the root of the USB drive.
at the end of the page in the second link above it says: "If the screen remains black after several minutes, power it off (hold the power button for several seconds), then go back to step 4. Ensure that your USB device or SD card is formatted as Master Boot Record, FAT, and that AutoUnattend.xml and Drivers are on the root level of the directory."
I have done this over and over and over again. A problem with bootcamp assistant, is that you have to start from scratch each time, I dont need to partition the drive and reinstall Windows, I know it is installed, I just need to install the drivers.
Is there anyway to install the drivers manually? Or does anyone have any other ideas?
Many thanks in advance.

I have exactly the same problem...

MBP will not shut off or restart after installing lion.

MBP will not shut off or restart after installing lion. I tried installing the latest update but since it will not restart the update will not work.

Everything works except it will not shut down or restart so I can't update it.
I run the Adobe master creative suite collection, Microsoft office and countless other software products without a hitch.
After I click on update software then download the apple update for lion it says I have to restart the computer to finnish the install.

Unable to load many web based games after installing lion

After installing Lion, I am unable to launch several online games (Pogo e.g.). What compatibility issues are being addressed?

I didn't think reinstalling was gonna do me any good except for getting rid of every single thing I have ever installed since getting this MBP. I'm thinking it has to be something that is on my computer causing this, especially since it only affects my ability to get to this one site and I only started seeing this problem yesterday.
So, I went ahead and disabled all my Chrome extensions and I don't have any Safari extensions at all. That didn't fix my issue.
I've been trying to run Sophos on here, thinking that maybe I've got a Trojan or some kind of malware, but it never seems to finish a full scan of my hard drive. That "Plugin" that I mentioned above has me very suspicious, except that whatever that is, it's been on my computer since basically when I first got it. Maybe it's malicious, or maybe it's just a poorly named piece of software. In any case, it got updated last night around 11pm, about the same time I noticed my problem. After trying everything I have, it's hard for me to overlook that as coincidence.
But, where do I go to gain more information about what that could be? I should mention that this MBP is basically my first Apple computer. I've been a PC guy (still am mostly) forever, but I finally dove in and got a Mac to start iOS development. So I'm sure there are ways to get more information than I am currently aware of.
Also, apologies if I posted this in the wrong forum.

After installing Lion on my Mac mini I no longer get a sound whe I plug in a usb device, and sometimes iTunes does not recognize my iPad. Is this normal (lack of usb recognition sound)?

After installing Lion on my mini, I no longer get a "recognition sound" when I plug in a usb device. Is this normal?

I am not sure any Mac every had a sound for plugging/unplugging USB devices.
You may be right. It's only on Windows that the sound is created and heard.
I know that since Tiger on this MBP, when I plug in my external scanner, I never heard anything.
And plugging in my Blu-Ray recorder also does not make any sounds.
I cannot speak for anything but my Mac laptops, however. Desktop Macs might make a sound.

Installing windows xp on my late 2009 iMac

how do i install windows xp on my late 2009 imac?

I just requested that the Host move your thread over to the Boot Camp forum.
Hopefully after they do that maybe someone over there might see it and help you. Your question has gone far beyound my knowledge of Boot Camp.

TS3276 After installing Lion in my iMac, some formatted emails contain in sections of the text rows of letter A contained in boxes.

After installing Lion in my iMac, some formatted emails contain, in some sections of the text, rows of the letter A contained in boxes. See attachment.

In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

After installing Lion, I get the pinwheel of death.

After installing Lion, I get the pinwheel of death. I ran a Varify and it quit saying I had overlapped files. Help please...

You're profile indicates you have a MacBook Pro, did you know this is an iMac forum?
Regarding your issue it would be helpful if you provided much more information. You get the spinning beachball when? Also how much RAM does your MBP have and any other specifics about your problem.

Magic: After installing Lion on a clean HD, all accounts and programs are back

After I've erased my iMac, I did a clean install through an external USB with Lion 10.7.4. MAGIC: All former user-accounts and programs (include office) are back again.
What was happened?
I'm using iCloud and Time Mashine. A few days before, my iMac (10.7.5) had some errors, and than suddenly, it didn't start again. I've tried to reinstall from Time Mashine, but after about 60%, it had quit with an error. It might been an HD error, so I did an secure erase (with Disc Utility). After that, I booted from my USB with 10.7.4 installer and have installed Lion, restarted, and than there it was: All former user accounts and programs are back! I've thought, I has got crazy. But now, I hope, someone can explain me, what has happend.
Thanks for answers,

No worries, it was late, I was a little loopy and having a little fun while trying to help. You just keep poppin' away!
Well we are on the same page my friend haha.
Good to hear.
I completed a fresh install of Lion on my HDD and migrated my data over with the migration assitant and all has worked well. Not flawlessly however all problems I encountered I could get past with a little thinking.
I must say the computer is running so much better now (touch wood, I dont want to post this and have my computer crash xD). No more spinning beach ball, no more waiting excessively for apps to launch. In terms of speed it appears it is now close to the way SL used to be (of course I dont expect it to be on par as Lion is a new OS which is yet to be refined).
Excellent!
In terms of battery life I cannot comment, I am yet to use the computer for a period of time on battery. I will report back when I do so, most likely in a day or so (if that).
I must recommend that if anyone is experiancing slow downs of their Mac after installing Lion, and it is obviously not Spotlight indexing to blame, that they try this. It does appear to improve general speed.
That is good for many people to know, so thank you.
I do hope Apple release updates and patches for Lion quite soon, it still has bugs in my mind.
I have no information on it, but I would bet on it.
Thanks for all of your help tjk, your a star!
Wow, those are kind words. Thank you, and you are quite welcome.

Is there a way to darken the dates (numbers) on ical. After installing Lion I can barely read the dates of the month in ICal

Is there a way to darken the dates (numbers) on the ICal calender. I can barely read mine after installing Lion.

I should note that the time stays on the left of the event name when I re-enter the text (which I had to do all the time before I found the "show event times" button) so I feel like there's a way.

Although I am new to mac, I am not new to computers and purchasing online. I can't sign into the App store after installing Lion. I have had to change my password 4 times in 2 days . I am so sick of this. I am trying to buy a tutorial for Lion.

I recently downloaded Lion and since have had nothing but problems with my new i-Mac. My problem with the App store is only one issue. Has anyone out there had any trouble with their components after installing Lion 10.7??????? After several hours on the phone with a tech my situation isn't any better. I think the tech is sick of talking with me. He was supposed to call me today and the phone never rang. He told me he was working on something to repair my problems and needed to talk with engineers. How long could that take???? If it wouldn't hurt the person who gifted me this i-Mac, I would give it back.

you can go to any computer with internet access in the world and
login into your itunes account if you have the appleID and password

Time capsule problems after installing Lion

After installing Lion, I need to regularly shut down iMac(Intel) in order to have Time capsule do the next backup. This method allows me to manually back up the automatic function to back up no longer exists. Also unable to connect to the backup disk.

Mine needs backing up immediately after its just backed up!! Its crazy!! IOS5 was supposed to be free but as a result I had to pay to upgrade to Lion then I had to pay to upgrade to iPhoto 11 just to be able to transfer photos from my iphone!! On top of this, Lion runs as slow as a PC, asks to backup constantly, I'm losing iDisk and iWeb next year and they've removed the bounce facility from Mail. Blinding. Well done Apple - who's brainwave was Lion and IOS5? Bill Gates?

Do I need to install boot camp on Windows 7 as well as on Lion? I already installed it some years ago on Leopard when installing Windows Vista on my Macbook Pro. But now after installing Windows 7, many things in windows doesn't work (sound etc.)

Do I need to install boot camp on Windows 7 as well as on Lion? I already installed it some years ago on Leopard when installing Windows Vista on my Macbook Pro. But now after installing Windows 7, many things in windows doesn't work (sound etc.). I made a clean installation because I needed to go from 32 bit to 64 bit.
Or should I just update bootcamp in Lion? (cause when I search for "boot camp" in Windows 7 there's no result)

I use a two button mouse with my Mac Book Pro. It works fine, but after installing Lion, the mouse wheel goes in reverse of what it did (rolling the wheel towards your palm goes up not down the page). Anyone know how to fix this?
