Experiencing problems with FileVault?
Wanting to have my files encrypted, FileVault seems like the only options running ML,
but due to the problems I ran into using it two years ago (running SL), apps not working, keychains corrupt,
almost losing all data when deactivating it, ect - I'm fairly eager to activate it..
So before I send my files to the land of encryption - is ANYONE having ANY problems due to FileVault? (ML)
I would greatly appriciate any information about any occuring problems.

I have not had any issues with FileVault 2, the one in Mountain Lion. I use it on all of our Macs at work and we've seen zero corruption issues. It is a new version of FileVault compared to Snow Leopard and now does full disk encryption instead of just putting your home folder into an encrypted disk image.

I have a early 2011 Macbook pro 13 inch, I'm running Lion 10.7.4, and i want to upgrade to 10.8 Mountain Lion. Is it safe for my computer or are people experiencing problems with displays and Battery life?
Do Not post stuff about how Airplay doesnt work, because i dont have Apple TV and dont need to hear about it.If you have an external drive equal to or larger than your internal HD, clone your internal to it with either Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. Test the clone to make sure it's bootable. Then upgrade either one. Try it out first.

Has anyone experienced problems with Mackeeper? I did not complete downloading this software. Yet, occasionally when on the internet, I will have the MacKeeper multi-colored circle replace my pointer. How do you deal with this?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Don't download MacKeeper. Users complain about this app and it damages OS X. Also, Mac OS X knows how to take care of itself, so you don't need any other cleaning application that may damage OS X. See > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3691 -
My iPhone 5 is experiencing problems with the Wifi at home. It shows that it is connected to the wifi but anything that uses wifi (apps etc) doesn't load content and just looks like it's loading forever but nothing ever comes. However the wifi and wifi/internet dependant apps work sometimes but it's rare. How do I fix this?
Back up all data.
Unlock the Network preference pane, if necessary, by clicking the lock icon in the lower left corner and entering your password. Cllck Advanced, open the DNS tab, and change the server addresses to the following:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
That's Google DNS. Click OK, then Apply.
In Safari, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. If you’re using another browser, empty the cache. Test. Any difference?
Notes:
1. If you lose Internet access after making the above change to your network settings, delete the Google servers in the Network preference pane, then select the TCP/IP tab and click Renew DHCP Lease. That should restore the original DNS settings; otherwise restore them yourself. Remember that you must click Apply in order for any changes to take effect.
2. I don't use Google DNS myself, though I have tested it, and I'm not recommending it or any other DNS provider; the server addresses are offered merely for testing purposes. There may be privacy and technical issues involved in using that service, which you should investigate personally before you decide whether to keep the settings. Other public DNS services exist. -
I am being informed by the manufacturer's Customer Support Technician in reference to where their USB2.0 device is being referred to as a possible cause of incompatability with my mini's USB3 connection, and I quote: "They are supposed to be "backwards compatible" but some users devices are working fine with those ports for periods of time (months, weeks, days) and then just mysteriously not working one day, so be cautious of trusting Apple's marketing." and he further suggests using a USB2 hub to be compatible. Because of this incompatability this device ( $200 plus tax,) is being rendered inoperable for the the main facility for which I purchased it.
I'd be pleased to hear reactions from others on the validity of this claim and whether it is or should be incumbent on manufacturers of devices that are produced solely for use with Apple products that they should at least be compatible ( USB3 ) with those products and especially if it is known that the use of USB2 can create problems. Thank you.I had no sooner posted, and I had second thoughts about third party "routers". I happen to be using the Bell Fibe TV system and their receivers, I have three, operate similar to routers in that they operate in conjunction with each other. If you set up a recording on one that recording will also appear on the other two. And it so happens that the device I am experiencing problems with happens to be attached to one of those receivers and it happens to prevent that receiver from making a recording that is separate from the recordings made by the PVR in that receiver.

Problems with FileVault 2 on my iMac mid 2007 with Mac OS LION on it
Hi guys !
Get a problem with FileVault 2 on my iMac mid 2007 with MAC OS LION on it. FileVault 2 works, but after rebooting my system, it was unpossible to select an account with the cursor of my trackpad. No chance.
Before activate Filevault 2 the trackpad works fine. No problems to select an account. Anybody else with the same problem ?
Regards
VolkerHi EVO67 !
I checked out your solution, but.... sorry it doesn't works.
So I cut off the bluetooth connection of the magic trackpad from my iMac and pair it again, but the problem is the same.
May be it's bigger bug with LION, so I need an update for this function.
But thank you very much for your help.
Regards

Has anyone experienced problems with downloading Nikon D800 files to the iPad3 using the camer connector kit? I have tried .RAW and JPEG (of various sizes) on both SD and CF cards, but the iPad doesn't recognise the files.
I have seen various forums discussing Lightroom and PSE updates that are required to process .NEF files but I can't find anything on the iPad/camera connector issue.
I dont have any problem if I put the SD card straight into the SD slot in my iMac and Aperture will process the files fine, but I would really like to be able to download and view files on the move on the iPad.
Any advice appreciated?
PS - saw something that suggested the iPad had a maximum file size of 16mb for photos, not sure if this is correct, but I have tried smaller JPEG files and they still aren't recognised.If your camera supports both PTP and Mass Storage Device modes, it may be necessary to use both modes to import all media content.
If some files do not import as expected using one mode, try switching to the other mode and importing again.
Note: Some cameras may refer to PTP as Pictbridge or PTP/Pictbridge. -
is anyone experiencing problems with opening mission control from the desktop. Running mountain lion with parallels 7 and windows 7
I had been having a similar problem on Lion with Safari pdf files despite downloading the latest Adobe Reader XI.
I would constantly get the same messages - There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired. And I would get a blank page when I tried to print the pdf if I tried printing from the Safari web page using File - Print from the top toolbar on my laptop.
Then I came across the grey Safari lozenge with action icons.
This allowed me, without downloading the pdf, to print the pdf file direct from the Safari page by using the Print icon on the grey lozenge that appears centrally three quarters down the screen.
Then I discovered that if I save the pdf using the Save icon from this same grey lozenge on the Safari page I can open and print this pdf version from my desktop.
I've tested it with a couple of different pdf files and these methods work using the grey lozenge icons but the same pdfs files don't work using File - Save As on the Tool Bar. -

The passcode you need is the four digit number that you enter after an Autolock on your device or when you first turn it on. If you can't remember that code you'll have to restore your iPad before you can do the update.

Is anyone else experiencing problems with the Music App/listening to music via earphones?
I am experiencing problems with the music app. It randomly stops producing sound when I'm listening to music. Also, I hear a popping noise when ever I walk with my phone in my pocket while listening with earbuds/earphones. I'm thinking it's because iOS 7 is still glitchy. Hopefully the next update corrects the issues I am having.
I don't have those problems with my iPhone 5. It almost sounds like your headset isn't fully plugged in and you might be getting static from the cord rubbing against your clothing. If you are generating a static charge, it is possible that static is being interpreted by the control channel (the volume buttons, or the play/pause button inline in the headset) as commands. Does this happen with every headset, or just the one you are using now?
I use my iPhone 5 fairly heavily with the wired headset, and even a good bit with a Motorola S10HD bluetooth headset. I don't have the static issues with either, nor do I have problems with volume dropouts.
You might want to set an appointment with your local Apple Genius Bar to have them take a look. If it is just the headset, they should replace it on the spot. If it is more severe and a hardware issue with your specific iPhone 5s, they should be able to help you too. -
