Color calibrate on two VDU's after lion upgrade

Hi,
I have just upgraded my Mac Pro from Snow Lepeord to Lion. All seems to have gone well after the 33min upgrade process completed.
Just noticed that my two identical BenQ HDMI attached monitors are showing different colours (colors) / apprearance. I have tried to change the setting in Display parameters, but although two calibrate windows appear, the right (primary desktop) screen is the only one affected by any changes, even if I try to change the left screen options box.
If I create a new calibration profile, no matter whether I select it on the left or the right screen, you can not independantly select a profile for an individual screen.
Seems to be a problem that has just come with Lion. Has anybody else seen similiar issues, and know a fix or work around?
Just ran the ColorSync application and it reports an error with the dfault BenQ profile
When I Verify:

    Time capsule no longer will back up after lion upgrade is anyone else having this problem?

    The Time Machine application is part of the Lion operating system, so you will likely get a faster and more informed response if you post in the Lion support area for Time Machine. There are a number of posts there with issues similar to yours.

  • Preview issue. Send to iPhoto option is grayed out after Lion upgrade

    Preview issue. Send to iPhoto option is greyed out after Lion upgrade.
    In Snow Leopard it was an option to send pics from Preview to iPhoto, but now it is greyed out if I right-click on the pic. I have searced and tried everything, but I cannot fix it, so does anyone have a fix for it? Please :-)

    I can offer no help but would also like to see this issue resolved.  Firstly, it would be useful to know if this problem is seen by everyone.  When viewing photos in Preview, with thumbnails in the sidebar, right-clicking on any of the thumbnails results in this:
    Prior to the upgrade to Lion, "Send to iPhoto" was not greyed out and worked as expected.

  • Safari Crashes on Opening after Lion upgrade!

    I just upgraded to Lion, and I try to open Safari, but it crashes before it loads my homepage!
    I had recently set my default browser to Chrome in Snow Leopard the other day pre-upgrade, could that have something to do with it?

    I'm using SL and found the perfect solution. 1) Follow oh_okay 's instructions, 2) download and reinstall Lastpass, 3) Restart Safari 5.1 and all should work fine. With this lastest update to Safari Lastpass functions a bit differently, having it's own tool bar with the option to hide. You have to click on the grey star, which stays grey, when logged in. There may be a tweek for that, which I haven't gotten to yet.

    I've actually just found a solution.
    As it turns out, LastPass was causing my crashes, too.
    I had to find my SIMBL folder (~Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/LastPass.bundle) and remove the LastPass plugin.
    After that, all was well. Not sure if I need to reinstall LastPass now or just pay for (what I've heard is the far superior) 1Password.

  • Time Machine lost all backups after Lion upgrade

    After Lion upgrade TM asked me to perform a 13 hours backup; I've agreed but now the oldest backup is 3 days ago. What is happened?
    Please can somebody help me?
    Thanks

    I can't help here, but before I upgraded my old G5 (OS 10.5.8) TM popped up a message saying that old files had just been deleted. That was what TM does when its HD is getting full. But this was strange because I knew that I had lots of TM space, and since the last use of the conputer (about 2 hours before) I certainly had not saved to the internal HD several GB of files. To my astonishment, all but the last 4 weeks of files had been deleted, back to Jan 2010! GetInfo said that the space left was about the same as before the incident, whereas it should have shown a huge amount of free space.
    I deleted all the remaining backup files and started again. It shook my confidence in TM's ability ot provide a reliable backup system. Now I regard it as a useful source of recovering old versions of files (eg., text, images etc.), rather than as a means to restore the system hard drive. Fortunately, I have been using Carbon Copy Cloner for years to make bootable backups of the whole system HD which can then be used, by simply cloning back to the system HD, to get back to work using the state of the HD when I last cloned. Alternately, the clone on the backup disc can be simply examined in the Finder to recover individual files.

  • I DVD Soft Frame template issue after Lion upgrade.

    Hello, I've just updated my os to Lion but the Soft Frame template in iDVD, (7.1.2) is no longer working correctly. The light coloured background which covers the right hand side of the frame is missing and has been replaced with black. This issue effects sub menus as well. Existiting and new projects using Soft Frame suffer from this problem... Any ideas would be gratefully received! I have tried re installing iDVD but this had no effect.

    OK I fixed it, sort of. The .tif file which provides the background image had disappeared. Even deleting IDVD and its themes and re-installing didn't work. So here's what I did:
    1) Make a new background. This can be any graduated colour field which you can make on any paint programme such as GIMP. However I grabbed the background from the `Forever' theme which is beige and adjusted the hue to turn it from brown to the blue which was close to the old 'Soft Frame' backing.
    Here's how to find the 'Forever' background:
    Go to your hard disk and look for Library/Application Support/iDVD/Themes/iDVD7/Forever-Main.theme
    CTRL click on it and select `Show Package Contents'
    Expand the contents folder and then the resources folder and look for the .tif file marked Forever-Background.tif
    Drag this into your photo editing programme and change the colour to what you want.
    Save the new file as tpt.tif on your desktop (there is a reason for this filename)
    2) Replace the defective backgounds in the `Soft Frame' themes
    Go to your hard disk and look for Library/Application Support/iDVD/Themes/iDVD7/Softframe-Chapters.theme
    CTRL click on it and select `Show Package Contents'
    Expand the contents folder then the resources folder and look for the file marked tpt.tif and delete it
    Drag the tpt.tif file you saved to your desktop into the Resources folder
    Now do the same thing in Library/Application Support/iDVD/Themes/iDVD7/Softframe-Extras.theme
    And do the same thing in Library/Application Support/iDVD/Themes/iDVD7/Softframe-Main.theme
    Next time you launch iDVD it will pick up the new backgrounds.
    It took me about 10 minutes.
    Now I've found where the backgrounds are stored (if you select Project...project info in the iDVD menu the media pane lists the full path) I realise it is easy to put your own backgrounds into any of the existing projects.
    I hope this helps.

  • Garbled Audio After Lion Upgrade

    I've scanned the forums, but the only audio bug I can find seems related, but not identical to mine.  I just installed OS X Lion on my Mac Pro (2x2.66 GHz Dual-Score Zeon with 4GB Ram).  Now all of a suddenly all my audio sounds garbled, almost inverted.  Some musical elements are strong, but human voice is indecipherable.  This is completely strange.
    I've tried messing with preferences, and the Audio MIDI Setup like some others have suggested, but to no avail.
    Help!
    Sno

    I also have popping/clicking in many forms of sound/video after Lion upgrade.  iMac 2.66GHz Core 2 duo, 6g ram
    Putting the computer to sleep and waking it works for a time, but it eventually returns.
    A quicker fix which likely does the same thing is to send a kill -9 signal in Terminal.app to the "coreaudiod" process and force it to restart.

    after lion upgrade, i need to upgrade to Office 2011 or iWork (Pages)..my desktop is from 2007. which should i try?

    You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
    Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
    If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
    Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
    Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
    To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].

  • Timestamp became incorrect after Lion upgrade

    What goes wrong:
    It seems the timestamp became incorrect after Lion upgrade.
    Timemachine backups are date 26th of Januari 2011, while it is November 3rd.
    Same goes for folders, files etc.
    System specs:
    MacPro 4-core
    HDD's: 1TB WD Caviar blacks.
    Upgrade of WD installed after LION release.
    Any suggestion?

    1) Make sure the system Date & Time is correct, and the location/Time Zone is correct
    System Preferences > Date & Time
    That will probably not be the problem, but you need to make sure there are no issues there.
    2) Next, open
    System Preferences > Languages and Texts > Format pane ...
    and reselect a standard Date and Time FORMAT.

  • IMac freezes after lion upgrade

    Upgraded imac from SL to lion, and now the computer freezes when waking from sleep or switching accounts. I have no issues during the process of using the computer. I have installed new RAM (4gigs), reinstalled the OS, erased the HD (securely) and rebuilt from back-up, pram, disk utilities, disk warrior. Read in one post that this may be the logic board and that Apple may be replacing these in certain modles. I never had the computer freeze when I was running SL, and I am a school IT guy with over 100 macs running SL and this does not happen at school. I have heard from others of the same thing once they go to Lion but the Apple Store says they have not heard of it!  Do not see how this could be a hardware thing since it looks to happen after Lion upgrade.
    Any ideas

    I did do the above as I read that may work too, I also made it so the HD never sleeps.  Did not help for me, computer still freezes when switching accounts, not all the time, on average every other day I need to do a hard restart.
    Still looking for the answer

  • After Lion upgrade, MacBookPro has trouble wake from sleep.

    After Lion upgrade, my Macbook Pro now sometimes will not wake from sleep.  If I close the lid the pulsating light pulsates. Open the lid and the pulsating light goes out and the keyboard backlight activate, screen blank and no keyboard response.

    I've been looking for answers, since upgrading to lion, my problem is more of a nusance, when I close the lid on my macbook pro (15" 2.66 i7, 8GB RAM) and it goes into sleep mode, when I reopen the screen the screen backlight comes up momentarily, then goes black (screen image there, just no backlighting) nothing gets it to come out (reclose/open, clicking trackpad, any keys, etc.) except the F1 key.  Pushing the F1 "wakes" the backlighting, then I just hit the F2 to brighten it back up, I don't have any further issues until I close it again.  Granted not that big of a deal given all the issues everyone else is having with this, but still a nusance I would like to fix.  Don't know if this will work for you, but it's been working for me.
    I have the same problem with my MBP 17"
    Would have been nice if Apple had taken the time to respond.

  • Time Machine: Missing Snow Leopard backups after Lion Upgrade.

    I regulary use Time Machine for backups to my WD drive through my network.  After I upgraded to Lion I could not back up to my network drive   I learned through various forums that my WD drive required a firmware update, to work with Lion.  I upgraded the firmware and now  I no longer have my Time Machine backups from Snow Leopard, only backups from Lion, any idea how I can locate my Snow Leopard backups?

    Pondini wrote:
    I'd be the first to agree that keeping two sets of backups, one a "clone," is prudent.
    But if you have a Snow Leopard clone, then upgrade to Lion, the next time you update the clone you'll lose the Snow Leopard version entirely.
    Yes, I was caught out early, so I have a selection of backup drives now to keep everything backed up as safely as possible. Although at the moment, I'm not seeing any reason to go back to Snow Leopard, and all my media is safe. Hopefully in the near future my SL backups can go and I can get ready for the next OS when it comes along.
    Thanks

  • How do I get my iLife back for free after Lion Upgrade?

    I upgraded from the Snow Leopard OS to Lion OS (using the thumb drive Apple sales) about a week ago, using a "Clean Install"; after doing which, I found that I couldn't find a lot of the app.s my wife and I downloaded. Our iLife collection is the only set I am truely upset about.
    I called apple technical support and the lady asked me to find the Application CD that came with my iMac when I ordered it from Apple. I thought she would know what she was talking about and I ask a good deal of questions before using the CD. All the questions of which were answered to my satisfaction; however, I started the install of the CD and I got off the phone with the tech.supt. After about an hour, install done, iMac re-started, and my iLife app.s are no where to be found.
    And!!!...My computer is now doing this freeze thing...where we have to do a Forced Power down to get it unfrozen!
    Please help someone. I just want to get my wife's iphoto and iMovie back that she loves to tinker with (without having to pay for it all over again).

    Do you work for Apple? So what you are telling me: it doesn't matter if I payed for it once, Apple is so low tech or just could care less about its customers that I am going to have to come out of pocket again. What is the point of the 90 day technical support that Apple offers with the Lion upgrade when it is purchased if the technical support just says...sorry, we can't help you with this problem.?
    I am going to have to come out of pocket for a lot more than just the iLife collection that Apple has a copy of my purchase, which validates my request, yet Apple is not going to help me out. If that is the case, this would have to be the worst customer service I have ever gotten.
    You are correct that it is my fault that my apps are gone because I did the clean install and did not think to back up my app.s, but is Apple hurting that much for money that it needs to squeeze money out of people that delete software by mistake? I have gotten two app.s for free from other small time app writers to put back on this computer after the Lion upgrade just by emailing them what happened and my info.
    What about the freezing problem my iMac is having after I performed the task Apple tech supt told me to, which didn't work and created a new problem. You didn't address the freezing issue. You stating what I already said and adding a snooty comment to the end of it, while not offering any real help or advice pertaining to my questions, has been a waste of my time and an inconvenience to me that was not need. How about you think next time, before you type.
    If anyone else would like to point out that I messed up or that I have no choice but to pay again, please hold your comments and allow those who might have a suggestion or answer to post, so I can get the help I asked for. Thank you, and thank you QuickTimeKirk for the speedy reply.

  • External Samsung Display broken @ 1920x1080 after Lion upgrade

    Hi,
    The more I use Mac OS 10.7 Lion the more I notice it's defects and the more I get upset with it.
    After the WIFI issue (wifi network does not reconnect after sleep mode) I am now facing an issue with my external display.
    I have actually two MacBook Pro unibody from 2009. One is a 13' with Mac OS X 10.6.8 the second one is a 15' from the same year recently upgraded to Lion 10.7. I used to watch movies on my Samsung TV using a VGA cable connected to a Mini DVI to VGA Adapter with the TV native resolution of 1920x1080.
    It used to work flalessly on my MBP 15' 10.6.8 but since the Lion upgrade the screen seems not to support this mode anymore. The image on the TV apprears for 2 seconds then disappears for 3 seconds and so on...
    I checked that the very same configuration still works on the MBP 13' with 10.6.8.
    It clearly means that Lion broke this.... oh crap....
    I was really expecting less bugs from Apple. Well at least I am now expecting a way to fix this issue.
    PLEASE.
    I have found other similar (unanswered) messages, I am linking them here:

    Good News Here
    I was able to fix my problem, i called the Apple Support to report my issue, they pointed me to this link:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1573
    So here is *exactly* what I did, step by step, to solve my issue:
    1. Shut down the Mac,
    2. Press the power button to start the computer,
    3. Immediately press and hold the Command (Apple) key and the "s" key for single-user mode (Command-S)
    4. At the prompt, type the command "mount -uw /" and press Return.
    5. Now do the following:
    > rm /Library/Preferences/com.apple.windowserver.plist (press return)
    > cd /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/ByHost (press return)
    (Replace the text "<username>" above with your username, which is also the name of your Home folder)
    > rm com.apple.windowserver.*.plist (press return)
    > reboot (READ the next item BEFORE pressing return, you will need to reset your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM, the next point explains how)
    6. When rebooting press and hold the "Command", "Option", "P" and "R" keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the SECOND time.
    7. Release the keys to proceed with normal startup.
    8. Once ready, connect your external display and... pray.
    For me it worked, I now have my full HD resolution (1920x1080) back on my Samsung TV.
    Hope it works for you too guys, keep me posted !
    Cheers,
    Xavier
