Help - Won't Startup After Upgrade to SL

Third time around with this. Received my 'up-to-date' DVD in the mail today. Backed up via Time Machine and then tried to upgrade.
First attempt had the installer stop like 10% in and then the system rebooted to 10.5.7.
Second attempt had the installer complete, system restarted, only to hang with the spinning beach ball. No menu at top of screen, no dock, no desktop icons.
Restored Time Machine backup and then tried again.
Installer completed 100% - system restarted. All I get is the spinning beach ball of death. My wallpaper shows up correctly - this time the dock is there, but no menus or desktop icons.
I restarted in safe mode, repaired permissions and zapped the PRAM and it STILL doesn't work. Am I just going to have to restore from Time Machine again and say forget it????
Suggestions?!

A Bouncing Safari Icon - at startup (after upgrade fron 1.2)

A bouncing Safari icon with a spinning pinwheel at startup (after upgrade fron 1.2) and finding that safari just will not open - then forced to reboot bact into 1.2 - I wouldf like to find out what 1.3 is all about. by the way I.m also have issues with a "localized string not found" issue.
Any one have any ideas?

Have you looked at the locked thread at the top of the Safari help list? This I think should help you with the localised string issue you are having. Or if you are lazy....

ICloud email won't work after upgrade

iCloud email won't work after upgrade to Mountain Lion. Says pop 3 server is timing out. Solutions?

I'm sorry, as I keep saying... in MAIL I get the message that it cannot cannot to server!? Did you read the initial problem at all! I know exactly where mail is, although, the diagram was wonderful.
My problem is TWO FOLD.
The MAIL app doesn't work with iCloud but does work with my POP3 email for my office.
Second problem is the iCloud on Safari doesn't work as I get the error message as the screenshot above.
There is NO reason why the @me.com email shouldn't work through the iCloud site, as you can see, there is a also a Mail icon.

HP p1006 won't print after upgrade to Mavericks

After upgrading from 10.8 to 10.9 my computer won't print anymore. It says "Pages not found!"
The printer is attached to a Mac server running 10.8 which is printing fine, but my computer (running 10.9) won't print unless I boot it from the 10.8 partition which still works.
What I've already tried: (on my computer & server)
Reset the printing system
updated drivers to HPPrinterDriver2.16.1
Repaired permissions

Hi zmogy,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I understand you are unable to print on the 10.9.
I will be happy to help you.
The HPPrinterDriver2.16.1 is the latest HP printing and scanning software for OS X Mountain Lion, OS X Lion and Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard.
Plug the printer directly into the 10.9 computer and run the Apple Updates to install the Apple drivers.
OS X v10.9 Mavericks: Installing and Using the Printer on a Mac.
Test the printing.
I can't guarantee it will print over the server.
Hope this helps.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
Have a nice day!

IMac won't startup after restore from time machine

After I restore my backup from time machine ( twice ) mi iMac halt at startup and won't startup. It stuck at the apple logo forever. I also restarted holding down command R safe mode and install OS X and it will startup okay but can't see my buck up files and applications here. Then I restore from time machine again using an earlier backup and it won't startup again. Please any help I will appreciate.

There could be a few reasons for this.
First what version of OS X do you have installed?
What version of OS X is the Time Machine Backup file from?
Did Reinstalling OS X from Recovery install the same version you had before reinstalling?
If you have not changed OS X versions then:
It sounds like there may be a bad file in the backup that is causing the computer to not startup after restoring it. This is especailly true if the computer boots just fine after a fresh installation of OS X, but without the Migrated Data being restored.
If that is the case, then the solution is not a quick one. You have to hunt down the bad file.
Moving Files Manually (Not in Migration Assistant)
Manually access your Time Machine backup folder from within Finder (you should see the backup drive in a Finder Window or on your Desktop). Once open, manually move data from the User folder (documents, music, movies, photos etc.) into their respective folders on the Mac. Reboot after each folder you move to see which folder contains the corrupted file then delete the affected folder/file after reinstalling OS X from Recovery.
If none of the files cause the computer to hang at startup after moving all your User data, then the issue is from within the System or Library folders.
NOTE: DO NOT manually move Applications, System, or System Library files over to the Mac. You can cause major issues with the current installation by doing so. It is safer to just reinstall all the Apps from wherever you got them so they can recreate their support files and such themselves.
2- Using Migration Assistant
Basically, if you have discovered the affected file. You can just simply delete it from the backup folder.
Reinstall OS X after you have done that, and use Migration Assistant to automatically migrate the data over minus the affected file/folder.
Its a pain in the rear, but it will at least let you salvage most of your data.
Let me know what happens riorec!

IPhoto 9.3.2 crashing on startup after upgrade to 10.8 then 10.8.1

Help,
after opening iphoto this morning and importing a bunch of photos from my camera I started getting constant crashes. I successfully imported the photos (first connection), then I took some more and connected my camera agian for a second import. Shortly after that iphoto (9.3.2) crashed. At that stage I was running 10.8. I have unable to successfully open iphoto all day - at least 20-30 attempts. I have restarted. Verified and repaired disk permissions. Verified the disk. Ran a hardware test. No apparent problems and no improvment to iphoto. I downloaded the 10.8.1 upgrade this afternoon - no fix.
I have ran the rebuild with iPhoto Library Manager - built a new library but could not connect to iphoto to complete the library copy/rebuild.
This is not the only crash problem I have been experiencing with Moutain Lion. I have also had similar, yet not as persistent, problems with iTunes - requiring a new libary rebuild. This caused all of my apps to disappear off my ipad. They still existed in the media files (music/itunes/media/etc) but had to be manually copied back to the itunes lib.
Also third party apps are crashing. Vectorworks 2012, Livesribe, Endnote X5.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion was the worst apple software experience I have ever had. I'm a 10-15 year user.
It took me clean installing 7 times. Back tracking to Snow Leopard, then a new user install of 10.8. Took me 4 days and required too many time machine recoveries. I seemed to have some serious corrupt file issues rleated to using migration assistant over a number of machines????
I digress.Back to iPhoto. Any ideas of this error report:

I was having a similar problem. After upgrading to iPhoto 9.3.2, it was continuously crashing when I tried to open it. I re-installed OSX, upgraded to Mountain Lion, checked my memory, installed a new HD, deleted every plist, db, and cache, did a complete re-install of all of my applications and data only to have none of it work. The final solution was very unsophisticated, I installed an old version of iLife11 which "broke" the installation of iPhoto (it wouldn't run at all) and then I installed a fresh copy of iPhoto 9.3.2. Problem solved! I certainly don't guarantee that this will work for anyone else, but I wanted to pass it along just in case it works for someone else.

Time Capsule won't mount after upgrade to iTunes 9

See my full post in the Time Capsule support section ("Help! Time Capsule won't mount after installing iTunes 9"). My music library is on my Time Capsule, but after installing iTunes 9, it won't mount on my iMac G5. I can use the internet, but the disk won't mount. My Powerbook hasn't been updated yet and the Time Capsule mounts fine.

To make it easier, here's the post:
"My music library is on my 500 Gb Time Capsule. I just installed iTunes 9 on my iMac. It updated my library and synced my iPhone. Now, the TC won't mount. I still have internet connectivity, but I can't access my media or print to my printer connected to the TC. I can use the computer and everything, but if I hover my mouse over the TC disks menu bar icon, I get the spinning beach ball there. If I try to connect using my Network icon in the sidebar, it allows me to log in and get to the screen to select the volume I want to mount, then stops responding. In the Activity Monitor, AFP Client & AirPort Base Station Agent are not responding. I also have a Powerbook G4 w/Leopard (10.5.8) which hasn't been updated to iTunes 9 yet. The Time Capsule mounted fine on it."

IPhone won't sync after upgrading to Leopard

My iPhone won't sync, or even show up in iTunes, after upgrading to Leopard. I've tried restarting my Macbook Pro, trying different USB slots, closing and reopening iTunes, everything. Has anyone else had this problem??
I've tried everything apple suggests:
1. The iPhone battery might need to be recharged. For information about charging iPhone, see "Charging the Battery" in the iPhone User's Guide.
2. If that doesn't work, disconnect other USB devices from your computer and connect iPhone to a different USB 2.0 port on your computer (not on your keyboard).
3. If that doesn't work, turn iPhone off and turn it on again. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPhone for a few seconds until a red slider appears, and then slide the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: If you enter the PIN incorrectly three times, you may need to contact your carrier for a Personal Unlocking Key (PUK) to enable your SIM card again.
4. If that doesn't work, restart your computer and reconnect iPhone to your computer.
5. If that doesn't work, download and install (or reinstall) the latest version of iTunes from www.apple.com/itunes.

You might need to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service. Follow the link below for info on how to do this.

HP C7280 Solution Center won't work after upgrading to Windows 7

I was running Vista and connected to the C7280 both wired and wireless. Last month or so has been wireless with no issues.
I upgraded to Windows 7, reinstalled the driver I had, and now when I try to scan I get an error that says "An unsupported operation was attempted" that pops up twice, then I get an error that says "An invalid argument was encountered".
Then a pop up window gives some steps to try to fix the problem.
I downloaded and installed driver PS_AIO_02_Net_Full_Win_WW_130_140.exe which didn't work.
I then removed the printer from hardware, and uninstalled the Solution Center software,
Re-installed driver PS_AIO_02_Net_Full_Win_WW_130_140.exe C7200 driver package and
installed dot4patch_reboot.exe,
shut the printer down, unplugged it for a few minutes, rebooted the computer, and
the same errors occur.
The driver is a year old, and I can't find a newer version.
Released:
2009-10-20
Version:

The patch is a few months newer but it didnt help either.

Finally got this problem fixed. No Thanks to HP Support
I installed the software for an HP Photosmart Premium C410 series and it corrected whatever problems I had with the HP Solution Center scanning problems in the C7280 printer software.

4s won't charge after upgrading to iOS 7 :(

My phone was FINE after upgrading to iOS 7 last night. Today when I went into work, it was also fine and charged correctly.
It wasn't until after I got the "do you want iphone to trust this computer?" and I said NO.
I wasn't sure what this meant, I just clicked no because I didn't want my phone to sync to to my work computer.
Since then, I have not been able to charge my phone. I know there are issues with other brand cables, so I waited till I got home to use my official apple cable. Doesn't help at all.
I went to the genius bar and he looked at my charging port and said "well there's nothing stuck in there or broken..." We tried 2 of their charging cables there. We tried restarting the phone, we tried resetting and restoring the phone. NONE of these options work. I am dwindling on 6% right now.
The only weird thing is, when I power my phone off, and plug it to a power source, my phone turns on! I get the apple symbol and it boots up. So it does recognize SOMETHING. However, my laptop wont acknowledge that something is plugged in... and now apparently the only option is to get a new phone.
Any ideas? The guy who helped me doesn't believe that iOS 7 could cause charging issues, but there's no other explanation! I was at work all day today, and nothing has changed, I didn't drop it or anything. THe only thing I could think was diff was iOS 7 and that weird "trust computer" popup.
Help! I don't want to upgrade now!

Jefisher - good luck with that. I went to the genius bar and we went through the motions of powering on/off my phone, restoring it and eventually resetting it to factory settings and none of those solutions worked. Unfortuately my warranty already expired so they suggested getting a new phone / upgrading.
