Hey,.. Freezing experience with Snow Leopard

Only difficulty I'm facing after installing the Snow into my Macbook which previously used the version 10.5.8. I need to wait and count nearly 20 in my mind before the new application is ready to use. Even, my dictionary is barred for typing any word in. It's never happened before and seems many persons share the same experience with me. How such an awful upgrading experience. I like to downgrade and use the previous version. I don't if my complaint will be heard by Apple.
My thought : Snow refers to cold, very slow temperature. How could I think it will run faster? So, the name might reveal its ability.

Hi, I called the service guy, he said I might do something wrong during installing set up. He advised me to reinstall all the process with 3 icons provided in the pack. It seems better in terms of respond time but not good enough and I still curious why the availability of disc space reduced instead of increasing. I still need to work on. You may try to reinstall but don't forget to back up your important data as you may lose some.
Hope the problem is fixed soon.

HD Space Savings with Snow Leopard? What Savings?

After installing Snow Leopard over the latest Leopard my available disk space has DECREASED by over 70 Gb! This is completely contrary to everything i have read. I cannot find where this space went. I used the same install options as before. Anyone else have this occur?

That is not a normal experience with Snow Leopard, but I have heard of it happening before when people upgraded to Leopard. Sometimes it had something to do with a MobileMe iDisk gone wild.
You can download a product such as "OmniDiskSweeper" for free that will show you exactly where your disk space has gone.

Installing Leopard server on the servers that only come with Snow Leopard

Has anyone ever "downgrade" - installing Leopard server on the servers that only come with Snow Leopard installer disc??? Is there anything special involved?? Or can I just pop in a Leopard Server installation disc from previous generation servers and procede?? These servers are going to be a part of Xsan. And with my previous horrible experience with Snow Leopard and Xsan, I am really trying to avoid going through that again... Thank you!

The general answer is yes. But the conditional answer is that you must have the original installation media from the Xserve model before it started shipping Snow Leopard exclusively. This means you would need to have bought an Xserve as recently as December to have the combo OS pack as I believe Apple stopped shipping Leopard around early January (although that might be on BTO models so if you got one from the channel it may still have the original media kit). You need to be mindful of the machine's Boot ROM version. The change of one digit can cause some issues with older installation media.
If you don't have recent media kits, you "should" be able to construct a functional OS by building on other hardware and patching up to 10.5.8. Then cloning it to the new unit.
And, you've peaked my interest. What specific issue have you had with 10.6 and Xsan?
Hope this helps

This forum is for people to discuss issues with other users. Apple aren't here. No one here can give you your money back. So, contact the the App Store support, if that's where you bought it. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store window.

Facebook video chat on Macbook with Snow Leopard-Experience???

I have a Macbook with Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Safari for browser.
I'm looking for users of the same who have used or tried to use Facebook video chat and would love to know if it was a good experience or were there any problems and if so what were the nature of those problems?
Thanks,
Janie

No Sir, I am not having problems with FaceBook and this Granny isn't taking a survey or poll. I gave all the information I did so that I could get the proper "help". I am not planning to upgrade to Lion and thus cannot have iCloud. I have moved my mail from MobileMe to iCloud but I am not sure that I will be able to use my iChat once MobileMe ends on June 30 and I am looking at alternatives to staying in touch wit my children and grandchildren. I am limited in knowledge but I do know that some apps from FaceBook arent's so good. I want to be sure that I don't download anything that would be incompatible with my Mac and my version/browser, etc. Just trying to avoid problems and keep my Mac in good working order. I thought there might be somebody out there that would know the answer to my question.

Tons of problems with Snow Leopard

Made this post over at my blog but I figure this would be a better forum for it in hopes we can get some of these issues resolved... it seems like Apple has pulled a Microsoft and released what appears to be a beta version of Snow Leopard! Inexcusable bugs are appearing left and right, and the supposed "improvements" have actually hindered my computer performance and productivity...
This really surprised me. After years of releasing amazing OS upgrades that seemed to make the best OS even better, it seems like Apple has taken 2 steps back with Snow Leopard. I can't tell you how upset I was to realize I was experiencing many problems that I previously only saw on PCs.
After one of the many bugs popped up again on my computer, I got frustrated and started combing the internets for a list of known bugs in the OS and the inevitable slew of Apple users registering their disgust. Unfortunately, my search didn't turn up anything but positive reviews of the OS and very limited complaints on a few message boards. To this end, I'm posting this entry to try and help other users who are experiencing similar issues and hopefully get Apple to clean up this mess of an OS.
Below I've created (and will be adding to) a list of problems I've experienced in OS X 10.6, Snow Leopard. I encourage everyone to list your Snow Leopard issues in the comments as well, in hopes we can create a master list of problems.
I am using a 2 GHz Black MacBook (Core 2 Duo) with 2GB of RAM. Keep in mind Leopard (OS 10.5) was running flawlessly on this more than capable machine. I am currently running the latest Snow Leopard build, 10.6.1. I upgraded 10.5 with the retail version of Snow Leopard, integrating my current apps into 10.6 (did not do a clean install). I've organized my issues below by application. This post is less about third-party applications and more about Apple apps/built-in OS features, as Apple is fully accountable for these pieces.
APPLE APPS
Airport:
• Airport is now incredibly slow getting past the "searching" status message and into what was known as "scanning" status in 10.5 (now called "Looking For Networks…" status message). This issue occurs most often when I revive the computer from sleep. I have to turn Airport off and on again, then wait an inordinate amount of time to get past the useless "Searching…" message.
Volume and Sound:
• I rely on my volume control icon on the toolbar. I change my system volume dozens of times every day (due to my job)... previously, I could click the volume icon then simply roll the scroll wheel on my two-button mouse to adjust the volume. Now, I have to actually move my mouse down onto the volume slider area before my scroll wheel works! What gives? In allowing the user to fine-tune the volume levels, Apple removed this functionality for some reason? This is a real pain for me as the extra second it takes to do this really adds up by the end of the day.
• Sound now starts stuttering for no reason? When I wake my computer up from sleep and I have headphones or speaker plugged in, the audio stutters greatly. I have to unplug then re-plug my speakers or headphones to fix the issue! This is a problem I saw on many PCs due to sound cards not playing with Windows nicely, but was NEVER an issue I experienced using OS X.
• The Mac OS startup chime plays on my MacBook external speaker when I startup, even though I have speakers or headphones plugged in! It also does not matter if I had my system volume on mute when restarting • the OS seems to now decide what volume my system should be at when I start up!
Safari:
• Defaults to 64-bit mode silently, and this breaks most plug-ins (my issue was with download manager iGetter, specifically). I had to manually Get Info on the app, then switch back to 32-bit mode, which it seems Apple has not designed Snow Leopard to support properly?
• Freezes and crashes more often, most often when running Flash video. This occurs when I open multiple videos on YouTube, for example.
• Hogging memory even more than it used to (1GB of RAM to run the app?? Really?)
Stacks:
• Apple seems to have completely removed the functionality or sortable sub-folder listings? For example, if I choose to sort my stack by "Date Modified", the initial list of folders in the stack appear by date, but all my sub-folders appear in Alpha order, and there is no way to change this! Come on Apple, why remove this?
iPhoto:
• Freezes completely when I go to "Export…". My Export opens on the Facebook tab of the dialogue box, and it seems the issue occurs when iPhoto can't find the source image. Rather than an error message though, I get the color wheel of death.
Spotlight/Search:
• When I search from a Finder window, sometimes I get the new feature of sortable results columns to work, but sometimes I don't. Seems arbitrary when it works and when it doesn't.
System Preferences:
• More of an annoyance, System Preferences now has to restart the first time I click on any third-party preference in "Other". Some work, most don't.
Install:
• In previous OS X upgrades, Apple gave me the option to "Backup and Install". This option was not present on Snow Leopard, so not sure what a user can d if they do not have a Time Machine backup and their install fails.
Preview:
• Preview slows down considerably when opening multiple files.
THIRD-PARTY APPS
Entourage:
• Entourage froze up when I tried to simply delete one of my email accounts. The Accounts window went blank and the application froze.
CS3:
• Slower than ever, Photoshop is running at a snail's pace.
I hope everyone can contribute to this string and get Apple to fix these problems.

I can address some of these:
Safari defaults to 64-bit mode silently, and this breaks most plug-ins (my issue was with download manager iGetter, specifically). I had to manually Get Info on the app, then switch back to 32-bit mode, which it seems Apple has not designed Snow Leopard to support properly?
All applications, to the best of my knowledge, will run in 64-bit if they include 64-bit code. With most you'll never notice, but if an application supports plugins, then you have to pay attention to whether the plug-in is available in a 64-bit version. More and more are becoming available, but not all. If you have plug-ins that aren't, you need to set the app - Safari or whatever - to 32-bit mode. This is not a bug; it's necessitated by the conversion to full-time 64-bit support. The developer of iGetter claims that an update for compatibility with Safari in 64-bit mode is under development but no time frame has been given.
Snow Leopard is perfectly capable of running 32-bit apps. You just can't mix them, running a 32-bit plugin in a 64-bit app.
Freezes and crashes more often, most often when running Flash video. This occurs when I open multiple videos on YouTube, for example.
Have you installed the latest version of Flash? Flash is almost always a bit problematical, but I've had no problems running Flash content on any site with SL.
Hogging memory even more than it used to (1GB of RAM to run the app?? Really?)
This may just be an issue of not being clear on how Mac OS X allocates memory. This article may provide some insight:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1342
More of an annoyance, System Preferences now has to restart the first time I click on any third-party preference in "Other". Some work, most don't.
This is normal if a preference pane has not been provided in a 64-bit version.
In previous OS X upgrades, Apple gave me the option to "Backup and Install". This option was not present on Snow Leopard
Actually it was called "archive and install" and was removed as an option as no longer necessary. The normal installation creates all necessary new files and more robustly replaces old ones, so having an archive of the old system folder was deemed to no longer be needed.
so not sure what a user can d if they do not have a Time Machine backup and their install fails.
To restore completely from a full Time Machine backup, you erase the disk using Disk Utility from the menu in the Installer, then choose to restore from a TM backup.
Preview slows down considerably when opening multiple files.
Seems to work OK for me. I've had as many as twenty open with no noticeable slowdown. But you may be opening much larger documents than I have.
Entourage froze up when I tried to simply delete one of my email accounts. The Accounts window went blank and the application froze.
Impossible to offer any advice here without knowing what version of Entourage you're using, whether it's been fully updated, and what type of email account this was.
Regards.

Format/Reinstall Mountain Lion with Snow Leopard DVD

I began having problems with software freezing up this morning out of nowhere and decided to do a disk verify on the Macintosh HD partition using Disk Utility. Once it completed it stated I needed to restart holding CMD+R to enter Disk Utility outside of OSX (I guess) to repair some problems that showed up. After doing that, I recieved a message stating that it could not repair the disk, to backup as much as possible, reformat, and reinstall OSX.
I have been using time machine to back up that partition since the beginning. Backups should not be a problem.
So here are my questions:
#1 - Do I only need to select the "Macintosh HD" partition in disk utility and hit reformat?
          Will it even allow me to do that within OSX?
          And will it guide me through the process to reinstall OSX?
#2 - When I purchased the iMac it came with Snow Leopard, but have since upgraded to Lion, then Mountain Lion.
          If I reinstall using the DVD that came with the iMac, will I lose Mountain Lion?
          Or is that attached to my user ID or my Time Machine when I restore?
#3 - I use iTunes - A LOT - Am I going to lose the iTunes database (all my plays, dates, ratings etc...) after reinstalling or will those be safe on my restore from my Time Machine?
I have googled reformatting iMac and read several guides but all this "GUID" stuff is above my head. I just want a clean system like it was when I got it. I use external drives for most of my main storage other than itunes music, which is backed up but remains on the internal drive.
Thank you so much for any help you may be able to give me ahead of time!

#1 should allow that.
#2, no need to reinstall 10.6...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
Or restore from the TM backup once the Drive is fixed.
#3, If the TM backup is good you should be fine.

I have a MacBook pro version 10.6.7 with snow leopard. After an scheduled software upgrade I could not open Quicken (It said it could not open the files). Now I can only open it if I have my external drive on. Can you help?

All the information that I had input on Quicken is gone. I have to have the external hard drive that I use to back up to be able to use quicken now. It is as if it was erased from the laptop hardrive

Try repairing permissions. My favorite way is with a utility called AppleJack. Info and download here. It's free. It only works when you boot in Single User Mode. When restarting or booting, hold down the Command key and S keys.
You will get a very different startup screen that looks like the Terminal app has hijacked the screen. Just let the lines of text scroll by. When that happens you will get a text entry prompt. Type in "AppleJack" without the quotation marks.
A DOS looking menu will appear. Choose 1 or d to run Disk Repair. If you get a message that Disk Repair found and corrected errors, run it again. Repeat until you get the "your disk appears to be ok" message. This rarely happens with my experience, though. This does the same thing as as booting from an external drive and running Disk Utility's repair. Only, no external drive is required!
Next, choose 2 or p to repair disk permissions. This will take a little while. AppleJack warns that it will take up to an half hour to run repair permissions. It'n never taken more than about ten minutes for my MacBook Pro.
As permissions are repaired, you will see each repair scroll on the screen. When done, the menu returns, choose q to quit. Then at the prompt, enter "exit" without the quotes. Your MacBook Pro should restart into Mac OS normally after this.
Hope this helps.

Installing Lion and formatting my Mac (with Snow Leopard)

Hey everybody!
I have a MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard.
I want to install Lion from the App Store and format my Mac. How should I do it?
Thanks!

Aha!
The proper way to "clean" a computer before selling it is to zero the hard drive. This will make all your data irretrievable.
Steps for zeroing the drive Disk Utility:
1. Insert your Mac OS X CD-ROM disc or Restore DVD disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key until you see the spinning gear.
2. Once started up from CD or DVD, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
3. Choose the entire disk (top icon).
4. Choose erase tab.
5. Click on Options
6. Choose "write zeros".
7. Erase
This will take a bit of time because the computer is physically writing zeros to each block.
You should then re-install the original OS from the system disks and deliver the Mac to the new owner with the system disks that shipped with it.
If you want it to boot as new at startup, do the installation of OS X and follow the onscreen prompts until it asks you to enter a username and password to create your first account. Quit the installer and shut down the system. The next time the system is powered on it will display the same welcome message and be ready to setup OS X.
Or you can delete the AppleSetupDone file.
rm -rf /var/db/.AppleSetupDone

Dual Boot with Snow Leopard and Mavericks not possible?

I have a Early 2011 Macbook Pro with 2,3 GHz i7 Quad and two 512 GB SSDs (the secondary disk in an optical drive bay enclosure). This Macbook Pro can run Snow Leopard and Mavericks on the primary disk without problems. When I try to set up a dual boot system however, problems appear and it looks like it is not possible. When I start from Snow Leopard, I cannot select Mavericks as a start volume and vice versa. The error message says something like "Bless tool" cannot use this disk, i.e. unmount and boot from it. The problem remains when I exchange the disks (putting the primary disk in the drive enclosure and vice versa). When I put the secondary drive in an external case however, it is possible to boot from it - but strange things happen when the system starts: My computer clock is reset to 1/1/2001, WiFI passwords are not remembered for more than one session, disk permissions are reported as "repaired" but do apear as not repaired when I check them again - and other issues). I have verified both disks already and repaired permissions but that does not change the situation. So my experience is different from what is said in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/566781. It looks like the latest Mavericks cannot coexist with Snow Leopard on neiter a secondary internal drive nor on an external drive. This is strange since both disks and systems work flawless when run alone. Any suggestions to solve this problem?

When I check the Mavericks disk in the optical drive with disk utility after booting / running Snow Leopard on the primary disk I get som errors, see below ("disk utility Info"). So after all, I decided to erase the disk and install Mavericks new. But even erasing the disk is not possible when it is in the optical drive enclosure. I get this error message:
"Volume Erase failed with the error:
Could not unmount disk"
When I put this disk into an external case connected via USB however, it starts and runds MAvericks without any Problem. Same happens when I put thie Mavericks disk into the internal primary hard disk place.
"disk utility Info" when verinfying the secondary drive in the oprical bay:

Ongoing, very frustrating problems with Snow Leopard

I've really been struggling to get my machine to work optimally with Snow Leopard. I recently upgraded to 4GB RAM thinking my problem was insufficient memory, but several seemingly intractable problems are persisting.
1) Still having font issues. I am apparently missing a couple fonts, but cannot figure out which ones. The font that Apple uses during the installation of software is bitmapped, as are several fonts in my widgets (Stocks, for example). I've tried manually going through one by one in Font Book, but still can't get the right set, apparently.
2) Firefox and Safari are now hanging like crazy on certain websites, and web browsing is generally sluggish. I recently upgraded by broadband to 6.0mps, so it's not the connection that's the problem. Some sites will not even load, and others are painfully slow.
3) General system sluggishness. I have tried cleaning the cache with Snow Leopard Cache Cleaner, I've tried repairing permissions. Performance is still slow relative to Leopard -- despite my RAM upgrade. For example, it takes forever for the widgets to load. They used to be lighting fast in Leopard.
HELP!

Here is a solution to having a sluggish internet experience that has worked for some.
1. Go Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
2. Move the the SystemConfiguration folder to your desktop:
3. Reboot
The folder moved should be recreated upon reboot. You may have to reconnect to your wireless network if applicable. And, you may need to go System Preferences > Sharing and re-enter your computer's name. Check what name is given in sharing before following the instructions. If problems develop, then your can move the original folder back where they it started—overwriting anything recreated.
3) General system sluggishness. I have tried cleaning the cache with Snow Leopard Cache Cleaner, I've tried repairing permissions. Performance is still slow relative to Leopard -- despite my RAM upgrade. For example, it takes forever >for the widgets to load. They used to be lighting fast in Leopard.
There are a variety of possible fixes for general slowness, in addition, to maintenance that is not performed automatically in Sno. Here are some nonmaintenance-related possibilities:
1. If you are running iAntivirus, then uninstall it.
2. Look in Library > StartupItems and in System > Library > StartupItems. Move whatever you find in them to the desktop to see if your problem is resolved. You can move whatever you want back one at a time to test which, if any, is your problem.
3. I Go > System > Library > LaunchDaemons/com.apple.audio.coreaudiod.plist and delete this file. I caution you here that all possible solutions one tries are at his or her own risk.
You'll lose all system sounds in Finder with this possible fix, but restoring the plist and stopping then starting the service seems to put all back in order.
4.
1. Create a new user
2. Test apps to see that they work with no crashing.
3. Drag your data (not your whole home folder) into their proper places in your new user home folder
4. Re-enter your app preferences if you are going to keep using the new user.
5. If you want to use the old user name, then delete the old account; recreate it; and move everything back to the original locations.
6. You will need to fix the permissions, app settings, etc.
5. Go back to 10.6.

Problems with Snow Leopard?

Are there problems showing up with Snow Leopard? Such as conflicts , glitches , crashes, etc?

Hi Gerald...
Yes... basically, I'd suggest: don't upgrade
I should have remembered: if it ain't broke, don't fix it (and all I was even hoping for or expecting was for my Mac to operate about the same with maybe a minor 64 bit speed increase).
I have encountered a number of problems, and what is worse, even after getting some of them sorted out (and some not yet) and using SL for about a week, I very much regret 'upgrading' to SL (and will be working on restoring Leopard tonight). I have looked at every upgraded and new aspect of SL, and there is nothing of any significance - I have a dual core processor (relatively new iMac, very basic setup, all new brand name software), which now runs most things in 64 bit, and have found no perceptible speed increase in anything from the basic to the graphic intensive (though I have no games on my machine). In fact, I have noticed quite the opposite - very significant lags, commonly in saving files, opening dialogs and certain operations in many software programs (including Apple OD included programs, other Apple software, and 3rd party software such as Adobe CS4) - even simply saving an image in Safari now takes a painfully long time to simply display the dialog. The 'beach ball' has become a very common site, and a great many of the other lags and slowness occurs without the beach-ball appearing. That, combined with UPS related problems, the system crashing, the system simply hanging when left on overnight, printer driver problems, screen zoom problems, various program crashes, Finder not working properly (doesn't crash but doesn't find consistently/reliably), and general bad experience with SL now making what I consider a very basic/typical/safe Mac setup become unreliable and unstable and slow and sluggish, makes the SL 'upgrade' 0% benefit and 100% detrimental for me.
With (non-snow) Leopard, my Mac was basically perfect, reliable, fast, everything ran right and flawlessly, etc - all the stuff they talk about in their commercials. With SL, Apple has severely disappointed, and added 0 advantages/features and made my Mac slow, sluggish, unreliable and unstable and problematic - just like the PC they compare to in their commercials. I have also been waiting and checking for a 'software upgrade' re the countless problems reported here re SL - nothing has come, or seems to be forthcoming. I simply hope I will be successful in restoring my Mac (through time machine) to it's pre-snow condition.
And, it you do try SL, I'd suggest you do a full image backup (which the OS install does not warn you to do, or do itself) beforehand.

Is it possible to order an iMac specifically with Snow Leopard, in preference to Lion, say, by the end of this year (as a Christmas gift)?

I want to buy an iMac as a Christmas gift this year and wondered if it may be possible to specifically order one with Snow Leopard? By then I imagine all machines available for sale are likely to have Lion pre-loaded, hence my question.
If I could buy one now, I would, as there are many around still with Snow Leopard - but sadly I can't manage it just at the moment.
Thanks
Ross

Thanks folks, I realise this is just a user forum of course, I was just wondering if anyone had previous experience with buying a Mac with an older system on it at a time of changeover like this. A friend has just bought a new one from an Apple store this week with Snow Leopard on it - not surprising given the newness of Lion, but I was curious to know if anyone had experience with being given a choice during a system upgrade.
And who knows...maybe Apple do look in at the forums to see what people are asking????
Thanks
Ross

Tascam US-1800 with Snow Leopard

I've heard a lot of horror stories with using the Tascam US-1800 audio interface with Lion. How about Snow Leopard? Are there horror stories as well? I recently got myself a Presonus Firestudio Project, but that failed on me the second time I used it. I got the consistent red light of doom, and instead of having it repaired or replaced with the same unit, I'll return it and just opt for a USB audio interface with the thought of using it with Mac and Windows. I'm not too keen on jumping in just yet, so I wanna know what are your experiences using the Tascam US-1800 with Snow Leopard (10.6.8) on Garageband and other DAWs, like ProTools or Studio One. Thanks!

If I buy a French version of SL
There is no such thing as a "French" version of SL. OS X is the same no matter where it is sold (except for packaging). The OS can be switched among 18 languages in a few seconds via preferences settings.

Is It Safe To Use Final Cut Studio 3 With Snow Leopard Yet?

Because of the many problems I heard about using FCS3 with Snow Leopard when they both first came out, I've held off upgrading my OS from 10.5.8. Now that some time has passed, is it safe to install Snow Leopard without worrying about freezes and crashes with using Final Cut Studio 3? Also, have most of the 3d party software developers updated their apps for 10.6? I'd like to install Snow Leopard for my other apps but not at the expense of FCS.

Hi Jeff, Be sure to also check any aftermarket video cards, firwire cards, all pci cards, external drives external raid / internal raid cards... make sure all are SL compatible and supported. I have not yet upgraded because I'm in the middle of post on a documentary. When I do upgrade, it will be a clean install, not an upgrade. Please let me know how it turns out.

Hey,.. Freezing experience with Snow Leopard
