After installing lion, where are my iTunes songs and programs?

After I installed lion, my entire itunes library was wiped out and I cant find iwork or office.

All of your iTunes library should be in /users/~/Music/itunes (` is your user folder name)
For the apps you are not seeing, did you look in the Application folder?

Your purchases won't automatically show in your new Mac's iTunes library. If you go into iTunes > Preferences and on the Store tab tick the 'show iTunes in the cloud purchases' then what you can redownload should show in the Music part of your library with a cloud icon against them - click on the cloud to download them. Or click on your name towards the top right of iTunes and then click Purchased on the popup, and you can redownload them from there.
If you've moved countries since buying the music, or if the rights-holders have removed them from the store, then you won't be able to redownload them. In that case if you still have your old computer then you could copy them over from that (e.g. via an external drive : How to move your iTunes library to a new computer - Apple Support or via home sharing), or copy them from your backup of your downloads/library and add them via File > Add Too Library

After installing lion, my computer is running slower and having delays connecting to network

please help me resolve my problem. after installing lion my system was running great for about a week. suddenly it is having trouble connecting to the internet, running slow and the history pages are appearing without asking for them.. unable to get my homepage when opening up, just get a white screen. if i go to the history, i can get the homepage. Only able to access my homepage by waiting for ever or getting it from the history.
please help

Peter, thank you for responding. No, I am not referring to the initial start up. I downloaded Yosemite over a week ago and feel it is running very slow when switching websites. Also, I have experienced numerous hangups causing me to force quite much more than before.
I just cleared my Safari history (I am guessing that is what you meant by "clean the old internet-caches" and restarted Safari. I will see how it goes.
I uses a file called "Desktop" from my IPhoto library for my desktop pictures. It contains about 20 pictures. I configured it that way in Preferences, but it seems whenever I shut down and restart my computer it reverts to the generic picture of Yosemite. As for the question mark and "Update Needed" showing on my startup log in screen, I think I fixed that by changing my password in Preferences.
No that I have cleared the Safari history, I will see how things go.

Installed Lion, where are disabled programs and how do I get them back?

Hi there,
I installed Lion and dropbox was removed by Lion and I don't know how to uninstall.
where did it go? I deleted dmg file
I know it was disabled but how do I uninstall it (:::??? where is it??? ) and then is new dropbox working?

Hi Pondini
Thank you.
The support file told me where my old Dropbox app was -- so I deleted it.
It was in a root directory <incompatible apps> or something like that
Next I downloaded the LION OS friendly version from the official dropbox forum and installed.
found the compatible version via search on google here:
http://www.google.com/search?q=forum+dropbox+lion+2011
It installed easily and it seems to be working. uploading is slow, however.
well, it's working and that's good.
everything came back as good as new.
Best to you

After installing lion, battery life cut by 75% and browser speed slowed to a crawl

My Mac Book Pro was working perfectly fine until I installed Lion. Now my battery life has been cut but a least 75% (only lasts about 45 minutes on a full charge) and it has also affected the speed of my browser.
Can anyone help?

There is a 190 page thread discussing the battery life and health issues assocaited with ML that you will find in this forum located here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4135250?start=0&tstart=0 . Some people have had some success in installing the ML 10.8.2 combo pack over their 10.8.2 instance. Some have had success in performing a clean install. Others still have problem, and others have moved back to Lion or SL. In your posting, are you saying you've installed Lion or Mountain Lion? I'm assuming that latter. I've recently reverted back to Lion until I have more confidence that Apple has tackled the issue.

Are your refering to the printer driver software? You'll need to go to HP's site and see if they have updated drives for Lion for your printer model. There site might also have oter useful information regardsing using this printer with Lion.
In fact a quick Google search turned up this HP site OS X 10.7 Lion: Installing and Using the Printer with Lion which might answer your questions
good luck

Ipad won't start up after installing an update. Shows itunes icon with cord from the side.

ipad won'tstaart up after installing an update. Shows, itune icon and cord going tothe side. Cant make it do anything else.

That means that you have to restore the de ice using iTunes on a computer. There is nothing else that you can do to fix it now and you cannot back it up now either. Connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes and restore the iPad.
IF you don't have a computer, find someone that has one running iTunes or go to an Apple Store and ask them to restore it for you.

Where is my I Photo Library in Time Machine Backups as I seem to have lost photos after installing Lion?

Can anybody tell me how I can locate my photos from I Photo in the Time Machine backups as I seem to have lost most of 2011 after installing Lion.
Many thanks

To recover individual photos open iPhoto and use the File ➙ Browse Backups menu option.
Click to view full size
That will take you into iPhoto in Time Machine where you can search for the phtoos and restore them.
To restore the entire library, close iPhoto, go to the Pictures folder, enter Time Machine, go back in time till you get the library you want to restore, select it and use the Restore button.

I am using Garageband and saving my tunes as iTunes files but can´t find them in iTunes on my computer after syncing. Where are they?

My answer in the older thread is still valid
Maybe the "iTunes Music" folder is hidden.
Please open Terminal and issue the following command
ls -ladO /epoche/Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Music
you should get a line similar to this
drwxrwxrwx 13 yourusername staff hidden 442 12 Mar 21:49 /epoche/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music
Numbers, date and time may differ.
If you see hidden then the folder is hidden. To unhide "iTunes Music", in Terminal issue the following command
chflags nohidden /epoche/Music/iTunes/iTunes\ Music

I do not know what to tell you. iTunes is working fine on my system. What don't you give a little information about your system and when this problem began on your mac.

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.

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.

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.
