DO NOT UPGRADE ADMIN MACHINE- YET
There is a glitch- you can see the clients-but you can't control them.
Not sure what's going on- it just happened today after I installed the new ARD Admin update.
Wait a bit and see if we can't figure this out.
FWIW,
I've just upgraded to Leopard on 3 machines. All has been fairly straightforward, apart from some repeated syncing with .Mac and Photoshop not understanding that on one machine, where there is still a copy of Tiger on a separate disk, it is still the same machine and therefore the same activation code. Sheesh.
Anyway, re : ARD. I found that none of my machines, in fact nothing at all was showing up on scans. After half an hour of fiddling around, trying to see if something was missing in the new Leopard prefs, I re-installed ARD (3.0) from the CD. Amazingly I got no failure or warning that the existing version was more recent and therefore the install could not proceed. None of that. It installed, but left the existing 3.2 vs in place.
However ... suddenly all is well again. I can control all machines perfectly. And as a plus, initial impressions are that ARD is faster than with Tiger. All good news.
So re-install from CD. It will probably fix the glitches with the 3.2 upgrade as well.

I currently have OSX 10.4.11 and need to upgrade my software. I do not have Time Machine yet. My processor is an intel Core 2 duo. Do I have to upgrade to snow leopard 10.6.8 before upgrading to Mavericks?
Assuming your computer has the minimum system requirements yes, upgrade to 10.6.8 and then open the Mac App Store and upgrade to Mavericks. You can only get SL 10.6.x from Apple's online store, it is $20. Prior to upgrading to 10.6.x get an external HD and use a utility such as Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper and make a bootable clone of your system to safeguard all of your valuable data. In the event you have a problem the backup will be invaluable!!!!!
Considering your computer is at best a 2007 iMac I would STRONGLY recommend upgrading your RAM to 6GB, the maximum a 2007 machine can accommodate. You can buy this from either Crucial or OWC (www.macsales.com).
Another option is due to the age of your computer is considering buying a newer machine. -
Hello, my mail is gone and I can't find it anywhere. Its not in library and I have not configured Time Machine yet. Help please?!
Use Find Any File, if the old messages might have been in a specific mailbox, to look for a file by the name of the mailbox to see if there are any larger versions of that mailbox.

If your Mail is indeed gone, you may be able to recover it with one of the data recovery tools here:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1689
But act quickly. Every action while the computer is turned on weakens its chances of recovery. There is a slim chance also your email provider may have tape backup from before you checked your messages and after it arrived at their server for certain messages. You may want to ask them if that might have happened. -

Does anyone know why since upgrading to ML notes are not visible in Time Machine. They used to be part of mail and could be recovered from Time machine but since ML I don't seem to be able to access notes in Time Machine. Any help would be useful.

My iPad is currently on OS version 7.1.2 and has not been upgraded to 8 yet. If I do an "Erase All Content and Settings" on the device will the device be forced to upgrade to 8 ? I would like to keep the device at 7.1.2.
To Perform the Erase All Content and Settings directly on the iPad it does not need to be connected to a computer.
In fact yes, is better if its not connected to one, but simply connected to its charger, and have it plugged in. Erase All content and settings, will not update the iOS.
If you restore the iPad using iTunes on your computer with the iPad connected, then it will update to iOS 8. Because the restore will place the newest available iOS version supported by the Phone on it.
Basically disconnect the iPhone, plug it in to its charger, and the charger to the wall, and then on the iPad go to Settings->General->Reset->Erase all Content and Settings. This will wipe clean the iPhone but will do nothing to the underlying iOS installation.
Once everything is removed, you can plug it into iTunes and sync your content back. Do not attempt to restore from backup while connected to iTunes, as it will update the iOS version in the process. Simply sync and you should have no issues. -

I have not upgraded to Mountain Lion yet, have 3 major apps (acrobatpro) and adobe image ready, and apple works that is not compatible, does anyone know how long snow leopard will be supported. Don't want to upgrade until I purchase new iMac next year.
Consider running your Adobe and AppleWorks software in Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) installed in Parallels in Lion or Mt. Lion:

I bought 2 2TB WD Passport Drives with the intention of housing my iTunes/iPhoto libraries off my older MacBook. I have successfully transferred the Libraries to one and am using the other one for Time Machine. In Snow Leopard I could back up my computer to Time Machine no problem but when I did not exclude the iTunes/iPhoto drive the back up fails. Both drives have been reformatted, permissions repaired and checked in Disk Utility and one was replaced. I have been to the Genius Bar now 5 times. I have tried using USB drive and FireWire. Both drives are recognized and are working properly otherwise regardless how they are connected. Finally yesterday the Apple store installed Lion to see if that fixed the issue and it did not. Time Machine successfully backed up a USB Flash drive, and today I will try an older external drive. Any ideas on what else to try??? Do I have to resort to third party software like Carbon Copy Cloned to get this done? Any ideas why this wont work? I am using a FireWire converter but as I said, both drives are working normally otherwise (libraries working, time machine working for the computer's hard drive. Any ideas would be appreciated!!?
Thanks so much but none of that helped. It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive. I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
Thank you for your help and replying to this. Guess I made my own issue! -
I keep getting upgrade notices for Lion compatabilty but I do not have Lion installed yet. How should I handle those upgrades?
Be very careful with upgrading to Lion. Upgraded my MBP 15" early 2011, the day Lion came out, but have been plagued by reduced battery life (i can now get only 2-3 hours after the upgrade). Rosetta support is gone. I would wait until Apple is back in the true apple mode and not like Microsoft. Lion (current version) is not worth the upgrade.
I went to the Apple store to have them check my battery, but they could not find anything wrong and incidentally both the "Genius" support technicians i spoke to had not upgraded to Lion. There needs to be a reason behind it. I bought my MacBook Air 11" (new) a couple of weeks ago. Apple claims 7 hour battery life on them. I charged my MB Air with 100% charge when i booted the machine it showed that it had 5:08 hours left on the battery. Over the time it took me to type this message, the time left has gone down to 3:58 hours left. This on a machine that apple ships with Lion tells me that there is a HUGE battery/power management issue with Lion.
I moved to Mac simply because I needed and could get long battery life. That has been defeated by Lion.

Intentionally not upgrading to the new software
I am intentionally not upgrading to the new software for my ipod touch since I have seen so many people having trouble with it on this website. Can someone tell me what features I am missing.
ThanksWhat you are referring to is security patches that have to be released regularly by MS. I would take issue with your claim that very few of them cause issues, but to clarify they cause issues with some computers depending on the configuration. And then again some of them caused system wide problems and had to be retracted.
Firmware updates on iPods/iPhones are much more akin to Service Packs than security updates, but you are talking about different technologies, processors, etc.
Since buying my 4th Generation iPod I have installed many updates and I have yet to have an issue with any of them. I've also completed updates for people on Windows machines and again had no issues. -
How does one continue to use Mail on the early MacBook Pro, Model 1,1, that is not upgradable to Lion? I have been running iCloud on my iPhone (OS5) and iMac (Lion) along with the MacBook Pro (OS Version 10.6.8) since November until now. Mail will no longer download on the MacBook Pro and keeps asking for my password.
Mail should still be usable with your machine - but you'll need to update the settings to conform to the requirements of your system. Check with your ISP (like ATT, etc.) for the settings that will work with your Mail. Once you've updated this, you should be able to email like before.
For example, my ISP required that I go to Mail Preferences/Accounts and make sure the details conform to your email settings.
I have no idea of what your ISP is or what the settings might be, but this is likely the source of the problem. -
My iMac which I bought in May 2011, (yes the warranty for one year just ran out) but I have 3 years through Best Buy, was making a really loud humming noise yesterday so I shut it down and restarted and now I have the flashing folder on a grey screen. I don't know if I have lost everything on that computer as I am not sure if I set up or needed to set up the time machine when I bought it. I am not super mac savvy (yet) and would love some help to try and not only fix this issue but to find out how I can check and see if what I have on there is automatically backed up or not. I need help! Thanks in advance!!!
Do you have an Install Disc?
If so...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitirion & use Disk Utility from there. -

Upgrading 2 machines to SL - 1 of them has an external HD with Time Machine
hello all.
my setup and configuration are as follows:
machine 1 (home computer): Mac mini with external HD (not partitioned) used by Time Machine for automatic backups. No Boot Camp partition. WinXP on Parallels 5 beta for occasional use.
machine 2 (work computer): Macbook white with no external HD. WinXP on Boot Camp partition for occasional use. Another WinXP installation on Parallels 4 for full-time work use.
i plan on upgrading (not Erasing and Install but just upgrading) both machines to Snow Leopard, but have a doubt about machine2. since it is not attached to an external backup drive, and since it has very important work documents, how should i do to back it up before upgrading to SL?No, Winclone's is a compressed disc image and doesn't take up too much room. You can fit it on your hard drive (it is a Mac application.) So only one clone is required. You may even be able to create a large enough partition on an existing external drive if it's large enough without having to lose anything by partitioning on the fly via Disk Utility:
To resize the drive do the following:
1. Open Disk Utility and select the drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list.
2. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. You should see the graphical sizing window showing the existing partitions. A portion may appear as a blue rectangle representing the used space on a partition.
3. In the lower right corner of the sizing rectangle for each partition is a resizing gadget. Select it with the mouse and move the bottom of the rectangle upwards until you have reduced the existing partition enough to create the desired new volume's size. The space below the resized partition will appear gray. Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed. +(Note: You can only make a partition smaller in order to create new free space.)+
4. Click on the [+] button below the sizing window to add a new partition in the gray space you freed up. Give the new volume a name, if you wish, then click on the Apply button. Wait until the process has completed.
You should now have a new volume on the drive.
