  • IChat over bonjour problems in Lion

    Before Lion, in snow leopard, I used iChat bonour accounts for 4 of my office computers to communicate between staff members.  I was able to use MobileMe to sync bookmarks, addressbook, and iCal.  Each computer had it's own "address card" and so each iChat account showed up uniquily as it's own person in the bonjour buddy list.
    Now, after an upgrade to Lion and migration to iCloud (and syncing iCloud between 3 of the 4 computers) iChat bonjour accounts behave strangely.  Here's how:
    All 4 computers call themselves by the same name "Front Office 1".  I have gone in to address book on each computer to change "my card" on all 4 computers hoping to get the iChat name to change, but even after that, they all stay named as "Front Office 1" and the cards don't change.  In other words, I find the card I want to be that particular computers, and say, "Make this my card" and moments later, so "go to my card" and it goes to the "Front Office 1" card.  I'm wondering if that is a iCloud sync issue.
    The weird thing is that one of the computers, mine, does not sync with this iCloud account but with my pesonal iCloud account, but it keeps assigning the "front office 1" card as my own personal card in address book and therefore in iChat bonjour.  So it seems to be an iCloud syncing problem on the other three computers, but I can't figure out why my computer, which syncs with another iCloud account, keeps assigning my card as "front office 1"
    Any thoughts on how I can get iChat bonjour to work with iCloud syncing and how to get each individual computer it's own name in iChat?

    Hi,
    Bonjour as Computers show up in the Shares Section of the Finder's side bar is taken from System Preferences >  Sharing  (See Name at top)
    For iChat the Bonjour "Buddies" should be using the My Card or each computer and Broadcasting it.
    However there are issues about syncing the info across iCloud which keeps updating/syncing continuously.
    If you are saying that the Address Book My Card on one computer is this Front Office 1 and this is syncing across the others I am not sure how that is syncing to the 4th computer that is using a different iCloud Account.
    I would tend to get each computer it's own iCloud ID.
    There are ways to use a Server's Directory services (I am not sure of the correct terminology) that can then have  global Address Book  that can be access from each individual Address Book.
    However if there are only 4 computers this extra step may be a step too far.

  • Problem with Lion 10.7.3 with hp laserjet 3600n network  printer

    Hi
    Problem with Lion 10.7.3 with hp laserjet 3600n network  printer
    Guys i am having a mad day with this new OS and some network printer none of them work with new LION,The software for this printer is currently unavaliable. Please contact the printers manufacturer for the latest software, i need the drivers for this, please give a hand with this issue
    Best Regards

    Exactly the same infuriating problem we and many others get with OS X from 10.6 on when Apple dropped Apple Talk.
    Having spent days fighting to get drivers that will run our older laser printers like HP5000, 5100, 2100, 2200 and 4MV, we came up with a simple solution:
    We use an iMac running 10.5.8 as a print server. All the 10.6 upwards Macs on the same network will see and add the printers immediately through the shared older (Apple Talk) iMac.
    Cheapest and simplest option really .... it'sannoying that a brand new Mac can no longer see existing network printers without complex investigation and trying various downloads.
    Answer is simple and cheap if you happen to own a 4 or 5 year old Mac with an OS lower than 10.6 which still has Apple Talk.

  • Startup problem with Lion OS 10.7.3

    Just recently, I've been experiencing a startup problem with Lion. I don't usually have any issues running my Mac, so I'm at a loss why this is happening now.
    I have an Intel Mac Pro running 10.7.3. I usually leaving my Mac running all the time and only restart when the need arises. In addition to being my main computer, this mac alsocontrols a MacMini that serves as a music server thru screen sharing.
    This past weekend, I restarted my Mac and could not get past the grey screen. The mac chimes, the apple logo appears with the spinning gear, the blue screen briefly appears, but instead of progressing to the desktop it reverts to the grey screen with a repeating cycle of the spinning gear appearing (spins for a while, stops, disappears, reppears spinning, stops, disappears, over and over) - never progressing beyond that stage.
    I decided to reinstall the system and things have been fine for the past few days. Today, restarting again resulting in the same problem.
    I've tried several things without success. I disconnected all peripherals, reset the PRAM/SMC, ran Disk Utility from a install volume and ran repair and permissions (no problems reported). Tried safe mode startup - a progress bar appeared but never fully progressed and could not get to the desktop.
    Recent changes included updating the OS to 10.7.3 and Adobe Photoshop CS5.5 - no recent hardware changes. No bluetooth devices connected.
    Any thoughts? Thanks -

    Thanks -
    I've reinstalled the OS today and am back up and running.
    But, since this is twice this has happened within the past week, I'm worried about might be causing this issue - besides bad luck. My Mac is usually rock solid - can't remember the last time I've had to reinstall the OS in the past few generations of OS X.

  • My problem started when system preferences was unresponsive and would not force quit.  I tryed to restart and got the grey screen, but it never restarted.  I closed the lid and now the screen is blank.  Has anyone had a similar problem after Lion?

    My problem started when system preferences was unresponsive and would not force quit.  I tryed to restart and got the grey screen, but it never restarted.  I closed the lid and now the screen is blank.  Has anyone had a similar problem after Lion installation?

    No, as I have yet to be convinced on Lion.
    Did a permissions repair help from the install DVD?

    What model of Mac?  I have a MBP running 10.7.3 and do not have that issue.  From the other couple of posts I've seen about it, it seems to be maybe an issue with some iMacs?  Have your tried searching the Lion or iMac forums for similar issues, just to see if anyone has hit on why it is happening?

  • Mountain Lion fails to install saying it cannot create the recovery; I had a similar problem with Lion and the Apple Store that helped me resolve it gave me an installable version of Mountain Lion on a flash drive for my inconvenience....

    Mountain Lion fails to install saying it cannot create the recovery; I had a similar problem with Lion and the Apple Store that helped me resolve it gave me an installable version of Mountain Lion on a flash drive for my inconvenience....is there some trick I am missing or do I need to make an appointment with a genius...

    I have the MacIntosh volume and the Boot Camp partition only.  I know that when I installed Lion, I had to go through a whole back-up and recovery of Windows and then re-format the drive. 
    The tech at the Apple Store had a previous life as a MSCE and was very helpful.  I believe he even said that I should not have htis problem with Mountain Lion which is why they gave me the flash with it onboard.  I was in the process of starting a new job when I went to Lion, so I have waited to do this next and probably last upgrade to this old MBP since I doubt Apple will support this MBP in Maverick. 
    I do not have another installation, so that is not an option.  I will try to create an external, I have plenty of hard drives around and see if I can get it done that way.  It might take me a week or two to get back to it, but I will comment back upon completion of that effort.  Thanks for your help....Dave Iverson

  • My MacBook Pro, 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo gives me an error message during Lion install. My Intel Duo Core is not an Intel Duo Core and cannot install Lion.  I already have Snow Leopard what is the problem with Lion?

    You need a "Core 2 Duo" for lion, and I'm guessing you only have a "Core Duo"  My wife's macbook is also a "Core Duo" and has Snow Leapord, but cannot install Lion.....

  • Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

    Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

    Try booting in Safe Mode by holding the the shift key immediately after powering on your system. Safe boot mode will for a directory check of your startup volume, then load only the required kernal extensions (kext files), and deletes some cache files. Once the system boots into Safe Mode you can simply restart the system to see whether the issue has been resolved.
    If you still have the issue try resetting the SMC by shutting down the system and disconnecting the power cord for ~15 seconds, then reconnecting the power cord. Next, reset the parameter RAM (PRAM) by holding down the option-option-P-R keys after powering ON the system. Wait until the iMac restarts twice, then let the system boot normally.

  • Is there any way to solve the wifi problem with lion?

    Since upgrading to lion my iMac has been having severe problems connecting to my wifi router. As long as it doesn't go to sleep it is fine, but if it does then I have to restart the computer to connect to the router. I know that it is lion as I've got 2 iphones, 2 ipads, and 2 laptops in the house all operating without problems. Please any help would be greatly appreciated. I tried contacting apple and they won't help me unless I pay them, or sign up for apple care. I already paid for the **** computer and the OS why would I pay them to address an issue that is clearly on their end when my computer is still under warranty?

    There's a number of things you can do to try to diagnose the problem, and hopefully it doesn't have to do with a hardware problem.
    I think the number one reason people are having problems with Lion is because most of the installations are UPGRADES, not CLEAN installs. While it's much less of a hassle for an upgrade rather than a clean install, weird and random problems can arise from an upgrade to an OS.
    Another reason is the fact that this is a dot zero release, meaning it's version 10.7.0, meaning there are bugs that have not been fixed yet.
    So the first thing you can do is to repair permissions in Disk Utility and restart your Mac. I don't think that will exactly fix the problem, but it's a step.
    When it's restarted, wait a few minutes and put it to sleep and wake it up and report back.

    I'm running MS Office 2011 on Lion and it runs just fine.  No "Full Screen", but it runs just fine.  There may have been an update to install (I know there was an iWork one anyway), but even before I installed any updates Office '11 worked just fine.
