How can I save OS X Lion To SD Memory Card?

Hi, I was wondering if any of you have been able to save OS X Lion to an SD memory card.  I want to do this but I have no where to start,  How big of an SD card should I use 4GB?  Thank you.

So what you  need is a copy of the Lion install files that you extract the Lion InstallESD.DMG file from then burn that to a DVD, USB thumb drive or SD card.
Those files, the InstallESD.DMG file, do not, does not, exist on your system. You have to download them from the Apple servers and save a copy of them.
Look at this link for instructions on how to get them and extract the InstallESD.DMG file and then use LionDiskMaker to create the USB or SD card with the files on it.

  • How can i save some image- profiles in the memory (RAM) of a system?

    How can i save some  image- profiles in the memory (RAM) of a system?
    (and then I want to read out the memory and save the profiles in a HDD, but first it has to write in a memory, because the write-speed is better by the memory )

    There must be an underlying premise for this question that I'm missing... When you run code everything is in memory... Programming 101. Create a variable, set a value to it, and it's in memory. Create a front panel control set a value to it and it's in memory. Data carried by the wires you use to connect your code is in memory. Or are you asking about controlling how that memory is managed - physical vs swap file?

  • I used to use a a nokia but i bought an iPhone5. How can I save the contacts saved in the sim card to my iPhone?

    It's really important since I can't save all my about 300 contacts again.

    Several possibilities:
    Transfer them from the Nokia SIM to your computer (you can get an adapter that will allow the SIM to be read by your computer). Then import them into a contacts app on your computer, and sync it to your iPhone.
    Ask your carrier to transfer them to an flash drive, then import into an app on your computer.
    Ask your carrier to copy the Nokia SIM to a nano SIM like the iPhone uses. Temporarily put it in the iPhone, then go to Settings/Import Contacts from SIM.
    Carefully cut down the Nokia SIM so it fits the iPhone and use the import function mentioned.

  • How can I save a "trimmed" QuickTime movie at original high rez?

    I use QuickTime 10.1
    In the past, after lobbing off part of a QT movie using the "Trim" function, I was never asked what quality to save it in, it just saved when I clicked Save. I never imagined I was losing quality by saving a trimmed movie.
    Now, however, when I click Save a window pops up giving me two choices: 480p or 720p. Are we to assume the movie we're working on was no greater resolution than 720 to start with? Or is our movie being condensed against our will?
    A test suggests the latter is true. Even if I lob off just a teensy bit, a file saved at 720p is VASTLY reduced in size. What is going on here, and how can I save my movies at the same high quality they start out with? I find nothing in Help about this.
    Secondly, if I may slip this less important question in as well: Sometimes when I click Save I get an error message that "This operation cannot be completed," and QT crashes. This has happened a number of times, and I can't see that I'm doing anything wrong. Any clues?
    Many thanks.

    Are you referring to a previous version of QT or your current v10.1 Lion version? Since the introduction of Snow Leopard and QT X v10.0, Apple has been moving towards a single combined "Save", "Save As...", and "Export" function with the name shifting from "Save" to "Export" as it evolved. (I.e., in the latest Mountain Lion rendering you are advised to read the "pop-up" option description to tell if you are performing a "Save/Save As..." or an "Export" action.)
    Now, however, when I click Save a window pops up giving me two choices: 480p or 720p. Are we to assume the movie we're working on was no greater resolution than 720 to start with? Or is our movie being condensed against our will?
    Since you have not indicated the encoded or anamorphic dimensions for the file you are working on, it is difficult to determine if the QT X player is acting normally or not here. Basically, whatever you are doing is triggering an export action which limits the dimensions to specific category levels. You cannot, for instance, export a 1280x544 (2.35:1) aspect file to a 1920x816 (2.35:1) aspect file but you can export it to a 720p 2.35:1 aspect file because it woud fit within the 1280x720 defined 720p dimension window. I.e., unlike QT 7 Pro, the application will not let you "upscale" the source file during the encode since this would reduce export quality and is the same as exporting the file at its current dimensions and simply rescaling the playback dimensions—a much faster workflow. As to "being condensed against our will," this could be the case in some instances. For instance, a 1280x720p30 file might be re-compressed to a 960x540p30 file for mobile device compatibility which, in turn, usually depends on the specific method of accessing the export action.
    A test suggests the latter is true. Even if I lob off just a teensy bit, a file saved at 720p is VASTLY reduced in size. What is going on here, and how can I save my movies at the same high quality they start out with? I find nothing in Help about this.
    If you are referring the to QT 7 Pro "Save As..." workflow and you still have your QT 7 Pro registration key, then the obvious answer would be to install the QT 7 v7.6.6 Player and key it for "Pro" use. Both QT players can be installed and used under OS X v10.6, v10.7, or v10.8 simultaneously. (I.e., by default QT X installs and runs/updates in "Applications" folder while QT 7 Pro installs and runs/updates from within the "Applications/Utilities" folder where they should be left.
    Secondly, if I may slip this less important question in as well: Sometimes when I click Save I get an error message that "This operation cannot be completed," and QT crashes. This has happened a number of times, and I can't see that I'm doing anything wrong. Any clues?
    This would be more difficult to answer. Since QT X is a product "in development" and has proven to be less stable than QT 7 Pro and includes far fewer editing features, I, for one, do not use it for any serious edits no matter how minor they may be. On the other hand, I have no real problems with its playback and conversion features as long as I work within the application's intrinsic limitations as it continues to evolve.

    How can I save an email message as a plain text document if the saved as command is greyed out? I am using OSX Mountain Lion. Macbook Pro thanks.

    OK, but is it happening to you with all messages or just some messages? If just some, can you characterize which ones? (Maybe messages with only one "alternative*" form, or with the "wrong" alternative for displayed, or messages containng images but no text?)
    * By "alternative" form, I mean in the sense of Mail > View > Message > Previous Alternative or Next Alternative or Plain Text Alternaive or Best Alternative.)
    Similarly, can you characterize the circumstances under which you cannot save an attachment?

    I have an illegal copy of word and I want to upgrade my software so I can utilize i cloud.  How can I save my word documents to pages

    You might want to post your question in the Pages forum. https://discussions.apple.com/community/iwork/pages
    Also if it's the Office 2004 version of Word it won't work in Lion since it's a Power PC program. Office 2008 will work in Lion if it's already installed when you upgrade. But it won't install on Lion because the installer program uses Power PC code. Office 2011 is the only one that will install and work on Lion.

    Sorry, but that opportunity has long passed. Your options now are:
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
             7. Xserve (Early 2009)
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps - App compatibility and feature support for OS X & iOS.
         Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
             See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.

  • How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?

    How can I save to the same map every time when printing pdfs?
    Finder points to the document map even when I chose a different map recently.
    I often print series of pdfs from the print dialog box, I'd like to choose the map to save to and then have all subsequent pdf prints automatically directed to the same map until I decide otherwise.

  • How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD?

    I use HandBrake to rip DVD's into iTunes. How can I save multiple titles under the same DVD? For instance, I have a Jimi Hendrix documentary that comes with special features, such as concert performances. I would like to have the main feature and the special features saved in my iTunes under the same title, perhaps as different 'tracks' (kind of like how different songs can be saved under the same album).
    Is there a way for me to do this, or am I chasing phantoms?

    *This response is for iPhoto 11 (v9). If you're using an earlier version, please post back and let us know. Troubleshooting steps are not the same for different versions. To find out which iPhoto you have: iPhoto Menu -> About iPhoto)*
    Duplicate the photo first. (Photos -> Duplicate). This means that you will have multiple copies of the master as well as the edited version.
    If you use versions like this often and wish to have only one master then you can do this with Aperture.
