Did a Clean Install of Lion and I see "librarians" logs being created in Console

I have "librariand" logs like these being created excessively every 2-3 minutes. Does anyone know why ? ?
What is "librarians" for ? Where is the error ?

Good luck finding anything on this.  librariand is new to Lion, and there is no man page for it, nor any general info around the internet.  It is soooooo annnoying.. 
searched the developer site...
No results were found for librariand. Please try a different search.
NOT what I would call "proper" documentation.
i get this kind of crap ALL DAY long..

  • ITunes quits unexpectedly when authorizing computer. Recently did a clean install of Lion. Help!!

    I recently did a clean install of Lion and ever since I can't sync my iPhone with iTunes. All my Apps keep getting deleted and it asks me to authorize the computer. When I try to authorize iTunes quits all the time when it tries to contact the Store. When I view my account information in the Store it says i have 'one' computer authorized meaning my computer is authorized already.
    Help!!

    According to "man webappctl", the available apps are listed as plists in /etc/apache2/webapps, where we see:
    ls -1 /etc/apache2/webapps/

    Judging by the names, I'm presuming you'd want to add commands to start com.apple.webapp.devicemgr.plist and org.calendarserver.plist and potentially also
    com.apple.webapp.webcal.plist and com.apple.webapp.webcalssl.plist.
    AFAICT the start/stop state persists across reboots.

  • Clean install of Lion and Time Machine

    I have done a clean install of Lion and re-installed all software.
    Now I would like to continue backing up this new, clean computer to the same Time Machine I was using before the clean install, preserving previous backups.
    Is there any way to do this? I don't want to loose all of the data backed up...will choosing the old Time Machine disk overwrite everyting?
    I don't want to try anything until I'm sure.
    Thanks,
    Margot

    How are you planning to put your data back?  If you use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant, that should leave a "trail" for the next Time Machine backup to "associate" your "new" (erased) disk with the old backups.
    If it doesn't, or if you use some other method to put your stuff back, you should be able to tell Time Machine to do it, per #B6 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.

    As the last post suggests, call Apple and order a replacement original disc for about $17.  They will ask you the model and serial numbers.
    Your retail version of Snow Leopard OS 10.6.3 will not work on that Mac as it requires a minimum of OS X 10.6.7 to boot and operate.
    Another alternative is to again borrow another Mac to install your retail Snow Leopard into an external HD or partition, upgrade it to 10.6.8 and then clone it back to a partition on your MBP.

  • Clean install of Lion and proper Time Capsule procedure.  Advice Please.

    Good day all,
    I have performed a clean install of Lion.  I have previously been using a  1TB Time Capsule to backup my Snow Leopard disk.  I did not use the Time Capsule to restore my files to Lion, instead I restored individual files from a backup of my Home folder on a seperate exteral hard drive.  I have not yet enabled Time Machine in Lion.  Is it advisable to erase the Snow Leopard backups using Airport Utility before enabling Time Machine?  If I enable Time Machine without erasing the Time Capsule will it ask me if I want to erase or will it simply begin another set of back up data leaving the previous backups intact? 
    Thank you!

    If you had used Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant to put your data back, Time Machine would do an "incremental" backup, of what's new or changed.
    Since you didn't, TM doesn't realize the erased disk has most of the same stuff as before, and will treat your Mac's internal HD as a different one, and will do a new, full backup of it.  You cannot prevent that.  (If your backups were on an external HD, you could make it "associate" the backups with the "new" disk, but that doesn't work on network backups for some reason.) 
    So your best bet is probably to erase the TC's internal HD.
    If it's quite large, however, you may not have to.  If it's at least 2.2 times the size of what's on your internal HD, there will be room for a new backup.

  • Clean install of Lion and Time Machine backups

    Hi All,
    I have a new MBP on it's way to be delivered to my house today, and my question is about Time Machine backups. I'd like to restore from my old MBP's Time Machine data, but I'm a little concerend because I've had some issues with Lion. Specifically, very slow at random times, spinning beach balls, etc. I didn't do a clean install of Lion, just the download/upgrade method, and from what I've read, that's caused some problems for people.
    Will a restore from a Time Machine backup replace all of the "fresh" system files, etc. on the new MBP, or only move specific files, or files not present in the system (i.e. app preferences)? I'd rather not have to manually copy and install everything if I can avoid it, but I don't want to transfer any old problems to the new MBP. Thanx.

    OK, you're right. I wish Apple would get rid of the Applications Folder in the User Folder.
    If you haven't read this yet:

    I still believe you are relatively safe in not porting over trouble from your previous System.

  • Did a clean install of Mavericks and need iMovie 9 back

    Hello,
    I did a clean install of Mavericks.  Obviously, I needed to re-install everything.  I thought re-installing everything would be no problem but boy was I wrong.  I'm one of the unlucky ones who cannot install iMovie 10.  At this point, I'd like to revert back to version 9 but it's no longer offered in the App store and when I try to download it from Apple support, it says I need a prior version installed.  So I am now stuck in limbo. Any suggestions on how to get back to version 9?  I've lost interest in bothering trying to install v10. I just want 9 back at this point.

    in a way I also want imove 9 back and certainly I also had issues when installing mavericks forced imovie 10 to be installed - ie when I tried to start imovie after mavericks, it refused to start up until I install imovie 10.
    Yesterday after mavericks was installed, the app store/installer/the powers that be just started downloading & installing other stuff like new iphotos, xcode, new voices I used in speech, etc. When it came to imovie's turn, it did fail to install for me, unlike the other apps which seemed to have installed fine (but I have not used yet).
    Today when I tried to use imovie, the app store app got started automatically and told me I needed to update to imovie 10. The apps store just sat there for a long time saying "updating" and then after a long time a notification popped up saying the update failed (again).
    Then I clicked on the "purchased" tab instead of the "updates" tab of the app store app, and it listed the apps I "purchased" of which imovie was one of them. The button on the right of that entry said "download" or some other word indicating an update was needed. I clicked on that and then imovie 10 installed fine,
    I have since used imovie to produce a clip. Hope this helps you.

  • Clean install of Lion and Time Machine Backup: Does it make sense?

    Hello everybody,
    I have updated from Snow Leopard to Lion over the App Store and now my iMac (the 27" one from last year) seems to suffer from several slowdowns. Quite unusual for a new Mac. So I decided to try a clean install. Of course I would like to keep my data, my programs and stuff. I am doing daily backups with my Time Machine, so this should not be a problem.
    But thats my question: Does it make sense to put back all data from the Time Machine from a backup on a clean install? Doesn`t it possibly put back all the old problems with all the slowdowns I experience right now?
    The following I intend to do:
    - backup all data with Time Machine
    - create a Lion install disc
    - boot from the disc, delete the HDD
    - install Lion from the disc
    - boot the new OS and put back the Time Machine backup
    I hope someone can verify that this would work. Since those slowdowns became really annoying I would give it a try.
    greetings
    Michael

    I'd recommend against starting with the "nuclear" option. 
    First, is there a "pattern"?   Does the problem seem to coincide with any particular app(s)?
    How full is your internal HD?  If it's over about 85%, that can contribute to slowness.
    Check for directory damage, by Verifying your internal HD, per #6 in Using Disk Utility.
    Check for unusual log messages that can indicate a problem.  See the tan box in OSX Log Files to locate your system.log, then the blue box there to decipher it, especially the Other Problems section.
    If you suspect a problem with your installation of OSX, download and install the "combo" update, per Installing the"combo" update and/or Reinstalling OSX.  
    If that doesn't help, try installing a fresh version of OSX (that won't disturb anything else), per the same article.
    The following I intend to do:
    - backup all data with Time Machine
    - create a Lion install disc
    - boot from the disc, delete the HDD
    - install Lion from the disc
    - boot the new OS and put back the Time Machine backup
    If you want to restore everything from your Time Machine backup, all you have to do is start up from your Recovery HD and do the restore.  That will erase the HD and copy everything, including OSX, from the backups.  Thus, it's unlikely to help, unless you had unrepaired directory problems.
    Or, after you install Lion, use Setup Assistant to transfer everything except OSX from your backups. See Using Setup Assistant on Lion.  Functionally, that's pretty close to just installing a fresh copy of Lion as above.

  • Tried doing a clean install of lion and now have a folder with question mark appearing when mac boots

    I purchased a 2011 mac mini I was having some issues and as I had already bought lion for one of my other macs and put it on a usb key I formatted the mac mini's hdd and put the usb key in to one of the Mini's usb ports and booted the mini up and held down c when the white scren appeard it stayed white for a few secnds and then a folder with a question mark started flashing no option to select my connected usb key I tried several more re boots and each time got the exact same result.
    What on earth has apple done so now I can't even access attached drives during booting.
    Any ideas how I can sort this out?

    Maybe it is not "what has Apple done"   You may have jumped the gun a little formatting your system so quickly without ensuring you can actually boot via an alternate method.
    The mini has a recovery partition, and instructions how to reinstall the OS from that.
    USB drive. Sounds to me like you don't have a proper OSX Bootable USB drive?
    Also, the new way Apple allows reinstallation is over the internet too.

  • New boot drive and a clean install of Lion

    I have a Mac Pro with multiple internal hard drives.  My Lightroom catalogs are on one disk, my actual photos are on another, and my OS is on a 3rd.  I recently decided to upgrade my 7200rpm SATA boot drive to SSD.  In the process, I also did a clean install of Lion.  None of my data was moved, as it was all on separate internal drives.
    I have the new OS installed, and I reinstalled Lightroom 3.  I should also mention that whenever I import files from CF cards (using a card reader), I import as DNG.  I only shoot RAW.
    When I launch Lightroom and look at my previous work, or the shoot that I was working on prior to the upgrade, I notice that (at least) the following is missing: flags, ratings, edits.  I think I can live without the flags and ratings (though I would love to get them back), but I thought the whole idea of DNG was to store the sidecar "edits" file with the RAW file in one package.  Shouldn't I be able to see my crops, treatments, localized brush edits, etc.?
    What am I doing wrong and what can I do to remedy the situation?
    Thanks very much in advance.

    You need the original catalog file. You should have copied this over to your new instillation and then just opened it, rather than reimporting files.
    If, as you seem to be saying, your catalog is not on the OS disk then all you need to do is open this after reinstalling LR, rather than creating a new catalog as you seem to have done. Just find the original catalog and open it from LR, or double click on it from Finder when LR is closed.
    If you have not kept a copy of the catalog file, then you could use your most recent back up of the catalog, hopefully you made regular backups using LR's backup system and did this to a separate drive.
    However if you have re imported the files then any edits that have been actually saved to the files will be read by LR. You do have to actually write the edits to the files, either by choosing to do this automatically in LR's preferences or by clicking on the update metadata in LR, otherwise these edits are not written to the files (or as xmp files when using propitiatory file types. If you didn't write the changes to file then LR has nothing to read.

  • How to do a Clean Install of Lion

    Hope this will help someone.
    I recently did a clean install of Lion on my Mac Pro (after doing an earlier Lion upgrade) and the performance difference is absolutely amazing. Before my Mac Pro was laggy and there all kinds of little glitchy bugs (I'm sorry I can't explain it better than that) with a lot of my applications. Since I use that machine to also administer the network, that just wasn't acceptable.
    I'm convinced, after this experience, that a clean install of Lion is the best thing for me, so, this morning I decided to do the same thing to my MacBook Air (IMHO the best laptop ever invented).
    Here's what I have done.
    1.  Download and install Carbon Copy Cloner to the laptop.
    2.  Clone the laptop hard drive to an external hard drive. I have a Seagate 500GB USB drive which had a 500GB partition with Lion already installed on it. There are instructions all over the web on how to install Lion to an external drive. I used disk utility to add a partition, effectively splitting the partition in two with Lion still installed on one of the partitions and the other partition "clean".
    3.  Donate to Mike Bombich's site. Carbon Copy Cloner is a remarkable program - I've paid a heck of a lot of money over the years for similar programs and they didn't work 1/2 as good.
    4.  Go into System Preferences, select the "Startup Disk" applet and select your Lion install on the external hard disk drive as the startup disk. I SUSPECT you could also set the cloned laptop partition as your startup disk, but since the Lion install was already on my external drive, I used that.
    5.  Reboot the laptop
    6.  Hold down Command + "R" during the startup process to boot to the recovery partition of the Lion install on the external disk.
    7.  When the menu pops up, select Disk Utility
    8.  Repartition your laptop hard disk drive. This will also erase everything on the laptop. You can not repartition your hard drive unless you are booting from an external install of Lion. The recovery partition is hidden so repartitioning the drive will fail if you try to do a clean install from your laptop.
    9.  When the partitioning is finished, quit Disk Utility and return to the previous menu.
    10.  Select "Reinstall Lion" and select your laptop hard disk drive as the target.
    11.  You'll have to authenticate to Apple with your Apple ID, so there should be no problem with downloading and reinstalling Lion.
    12.  Wait for the download and install to finish. The download will take longer than the install.
    13.  During the setup, use the Transfer Assistant to transfer the cloned drive items to the new Lion install.
    When the TA and install is finished, you should be back to where you started with everything intact.
    Good luck!

  • How can I restore my contacts from a snow leopard time machine to clean instal of Lion

    I recently did a clean instal of Lion (which was wayyyyy to difficult by the way--why this wasnt an easy option to begin with I do not know and am not happy about).
    In my sleep depravation from the previous problem I accidentally synced my contacts from mobile me to take my computer contacts (deleting all my contacts from my phone and computer).
    Fortunately I have a back up on my time machine from my previously installed Snow Leopard.
    I tried to restore these files, but they seem to not be compatible.
    Steps I took:
    1.) -Opened Address Book in Lion
    -Opened time machine
    notes: i could not go backward in time with lion address book
    2.) -Copied files from time machine address book to desktop
    -completely unable to open files.
    I do not want to use migration assistant because it seems to want to take ALL my files over and frankly thats not what I want to do at all.

  • Clean install of Lion has lots of spinning beach balls?

    I did a clean install of Lion last week. Before I installed any applications or made any personal preference changes I updated the Lion with all software updates.
    However after thinking this was a near perfect/clean install after I week I seem to experience lots of spinning beach balls. My wife notices it a lot when she's checking her school web email, which she seems to lose her cursor for several minutes with beach balls.
    I don't know what's going on...I ran verify disk permissions with no change.
    Ideas?

    As an experiment, I would see if using something like the OpenDNS or Google DNS servers has any effect.  Often times while doing networking things, there are name lookups and if the DNS servers are slow, or unresponsive, you can see network delays.
    System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> DNS -> [+] (click the plus button at the bottom of the list to add new DNS entries).  The one at the top of the list will be your primary DNS server.
    OpenDNS.org
