  • How to create a Mac OS X Lion USB thumb drive installation bootable drive on a brand new Macbook???

    Hi,
    As Apple have decided not to give with new laptops USB thumb drives for installation of OS X Lion (as they did with Snow Leopard), since people on the go might not have access to high speed internet when the system crashes, plenty of tutorials have surfaced about "How to Make a Bootable Mac OS X Lion USB Install Key"
    Such as

    http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2389178,00.asp
    These all assume you have upgraded to Lion from Snow Leopard thus purchasing the Lion on the App Store.
    Any ideas what people who have purchased brand new Mabooks do? As the system comes preloaded with the OS X Lion and it's not considered purchased on the App store.
    I think Apple's new policy to charge customers $69 for this thumb drive is wrong and outrageous since the price of the laptop includes a license for the OS!
    Thanks,
    Guy.

  • How do I install Mac OS X Lion in my macbook?I already have it in appstore

    How do I install Mac OS X Lion in my macbook?I already have it in appstore!

    First off, dont call me guy.  Now when you launch the app store, hold down the option key and click on purchased.  You should see a dark grey button next to Lion that says install.  Click install on the other mac.  Make sure you are signing in with the same apple id that you purchased Lion with.  That should do the trick.

  • How to create a MBR partition in Lion without Boot Camp Assistant?

    Does anybody know a way to create a MBR partition in Lion other than Boot Camp Assistant way? In terminal or some 3rd party software?
    Thank you

    To answer the question actually asked, the command line utility fdisk (run as "sudo fdisk -e /dev/disk0" for the appropriate disk0) can create and edit MBRs, even if the disk has a GPT partition table.
    You need to verify that the MBR and the GPT partition tables agree with each other - at least as far as the start and end blocks of all the partitions they contain. OS X ignores the MBR. Disk utility will try and write a "correct" MBR, or just punt, and create an MBR with a single partition spanning the entire disk as a "protective"  partition.
    Booting an OS using the MBR (i.e. - Windows) when it doesn't correctly describe the disk partitions it contains is a recipe for disaster.
    rEFIt (a Mac boot manager) has a couple of useful tools here. Partition Inspector will display both GPT and MBR partition maps. On boot, there's a tool that will copy the first four partitions from the GPT to the MBR (basically, a smarter version of what Disk Utility tries to do).
    There's also a third party utilllity called gdisk that is like fdisk, but for gpt partition tables.

  • How can you install Mac OS X Lion on a new, empty hard drive?

    If the only way to install Mac OS X Lion is by downloading it via the Mac App Store, it's going to be very difficult to put it on a brand-new hard drive unless Apple provides us with workarounds,So what should we do when want to install Mac OSX Lion on new HD?
    ThanQ

    What you get from the Mac App Store will be an Installer Application. You will be able to transfer that Installer from Mac to Mac. I have not seen it yet, but we may also be able to burn an installer disk, we shall have to see just how things work.
    Apple has always been known as an innovative company. And when they announce something new folks always go nuts with reasons that this cannot work. When Apple stopped making Macs with floppy drives and iMacs only had optical drives, people went crazy. Today no one makes computers with floppy drives.

  • How to create multiple Spaces (desktops) in Lion

    On Lion, Spaces tend to instead be called Desktops, but I’ll continue to use the term Spaces in this article. To make more, enter Mission Control and hover your mouse over the top-right of the screen (or hold the option/alt key). You’ll see a “+” button, and you can click it to create a new Space.
    You can also hover over any Space you’ve created (or again hold the option/alt key) to see a delete button, which you can use to delete that Space. You can only delete Spaces you’ve manually created.
    This info was found in the link provided below in my searches to figure out how to get diff spaces (desktops) in Lion since i use photoshop in one space, indesign in another and lightroom in another, etc...
    http://mattgemmell.com/2011/07/27/using-spaces-on-os-x-lion/

    Ex: hope you will find an idea from the below example :
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK SEL1 WITH FRAME TITLE TIT1.
    PARAMETERS: CITYFR LIKE SPFLI-CITYFORM,
                CITYTO LIKE SPFLI-CITYFORM.
    SELECTION-SCREEN end OF BLOCK SEL1
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF SCREEN 500 AS WINDOW.
    SELECTION-SCREEN INCLUDE BLOCKS SEL1.
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK SEL2 WITH FRAME TITLE TIT2 .
    PARAMETERS: AIRPFFR LIKE SPFLI-AIRPFROM,
                AIRPTO LIKE SPFLI-AIRPTO.
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK SEL2
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF SCREEN 5000.
    INITIALIZATION.
    TIT1 = 'ITIES'.
    aT SELECTION-SCREEN.
    CASE SY-DYNNR.
    WHEN '0500'.
       MESSAGE W159(at) WITH 'SCREEN 500'.
    WHEN '1000'.
       MESSAGE W159(at) WITH 'SCREEN 1000'.
    ENDCASE.
    START-OF-SELECTION.
    TIT1 = 'CITIES FOR AIRPORTS'.
    TIT2 = 'AIRPORTS'.
    CALL SELECTION-SCREEN 500 STARTING AT 10 10.
    TIT1 = 'CITIES AGAIN'.
    CALL SELECTION-SCREEN 1000 STARTING AT 10 10.

  • How do I get Mac Pro with Lion Server to restart at a set time when users are connected?

    I have recently configured a Mac Pro with Lion Server, and have set it to restart automatically every morning at 3am. When I arrive in the morning, I notice that it has not rebooted, usually because it states there are users connected. Is there a way to automatically disconnect users so that the machine will reboot.  No one is ACTIVELY connected at this time of the morning, but may still be logged in somewhere. I did see where I can log out users after a set period of time when using Workgroup Manager to manage a computer or computer group, but I don't use the server to manage all of the computers that have users log in.
    Thanks!

    Well, it doesn't necessarily have to be each and every night, but it was for the sole purpose of preventing sluggishness. We had it set up before, as Snow Leopard Server and it would restart every night. It would occasionally be slow and need rebooting, however a manual reboot was not possible by most people in the store as they did not have credentials to screen share and restart it - which would result in holding down the power button to shut it down.
    The server is used for the sole purpose of logging in about 50 users just so they can customize their experience, as well as saving items to their own home folders.  The store is closed during the night, and there is no reason anyone would be accessing it during the night.

  • How to install the mac os x lion???

    i have installed the mac os x lion developer review. now im trying to install the offcial one but it doesnt work.
    it says :"this disk cannot be used to start up your computer".
    please help!!!

    I would submit the bug request to the Developer feedback mechanisms.  Your action of running the Developer preview is under a non-disclosure agreement.  Hence any issues with the Preview should only be submitted via the channels you got the Developer preview from within.  One that is known to all is http://bugreporter.apple.com/ If you got it without ever getting a non-disclosure agreement, you are in violation of Apple's agreements and should erase it from your machine, and start over again with a licensed 10.6 that either was first used to install 10.6 on your machine, or a newer retail edition.  10.6 came in 10.6, and 10.6.3 retail editions.  If your Mac was new after March 1st, 2010, it came with its own Mac Mini 10.6.3 or later installer disc which must be used to install 10.6.  Otherwise the retail 10.6.3 should work, as long as it doesn't say Upgrade, Dropin, OEM, or any specific Mac model.  Finally, apply the 10.6.6, 10.6.7, 10.6.8 combo update before upgrading to Lion from the Mac App Store if all your applications are ready for Lion.

  • How do I boot Mac Mini when 'c' or 'command' 's' doesn't work

    I recently reinstalled OSX 10.4.7 and OSX Leopard 10.5 upgrade. It appears that when inserting my name and password during the installation I must have miss typed something as when trying to update and install software the computer now asks for my administrator name and password which I cant get right.
    I have tried inserting the Mac OS X Install disc while pressing ‘c’ to boot the computer  from the installation disc, however the computer appears not to recognise the ‘c’ command and opens the computer from the hard disc instead.
    I have also tried to book the computer while holding 'Command S', but also here the computer merely starts up from the hard disc as normal.
    I have tried my Mac (Danish) keyboard and a (UK) Mac Keyboard from Work with no difference.
    I can change my Mac user name and password without problems under accounts, (forgive me for my ignorance) which I now assume must be different form the administrator account?! I am at a loss. I am certain I am writing the name and password I put in during the installation but must non the less have forgotten a detail in it.
    Can you help suggest how to gain access to update and installing software again.
    Sincerely
    Ib, Edgware in London

    Hello,
    Might you have setup Firmware password protection in Mac OS X ...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1352
    It would block usage of all the startup keys, like C, N, T, D, CMD+s, CMD+Option+p+r, CMD +v, Option, and Shift, as well as booting from anything but the Hard Drive.

  • How to create boot disk

    Tho' my MBP is working fine (I think) Disk Utility tells me my HDD is corrupted and needs repairing.
    Disk Utility tells me "This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk."
    How can I do this, having simply downloaded Lion?

    I strongly recommend to use Disk Warrior.
    If you don't have it already, I believe you should purchase it.
    If you are interested, you can look it up at www.alsoft.com.
    I am not an Alsoft shareholder :-). I have been using Disk Warrior since it was released, too many years to tell exactly.
    Now more specifially about your pertinent question, there's no "installation disc" for Lion, we all downloaded it from App Store.
    If you don't have it already, you might want to consider backing up your entire computer to an external (preferrably portable) back up drive, that is really not expensive. That external back up drive should be bootable, to enable you to boot from it (when it is connected to your computer via USB or any other suitable port that your computer supports.
    That's what I have been doing for years, and am still doing now.

  • How do I boot Mac OS X Leopard from an external hard drive onto an eMac?

    My eMac's internal hard drive died a while ago, and I was finally able to successfully able to install Mac OS X Leopard onto an external hard drive. However, my eMac still refuses to boot Leopard. I only keep being put on the OS Install/Upgrade screen. After install, I selected the Start-up Disk utility and chose my hard drive. Upon restart I find myself on the Install/Upgrade screen as I said earlier. I tried restarting again, but this time I pressed the option key to select a boot disk. However, only my Mac Install Disk shows up.

    How is the external HD connected - USB or Firewire? Most Power PC Macs can't boot from a USB connected external HD.

  • Unable to boot mac OS X Lion after windows 7 installation using boot camp!

    Hi,
    I'm first time mac user & recently bought the latest entry level mac mini model 2.3GHz 599$ (http://www.apple.com/macmini/specs.html).
    The machine by default came with OS X Lion.
    I was trying to install genuine windows 7 on my mac mini using boot camp. I had the windows installation CD the download part for windows support software was taking too long & I foolishly skipped this crucial part set aside 70GB for win7 & continued the installation. The windows installation was done successfully with no machine specific drivers installed yet. I thought I would get some grub like thing to select OS at boot time but everytime it boots to windows. Is it since I missed downloading/installing windows support software? Please help me out to get my mac back
    I've not done much of googling to troubleshoot it but bit of nervous for my foolishness at skipping that downloading part.

    That was quite dumb question, the RTFM issue
    Booted from macintosh HD at startup & removed the windows installation.

  • How do I stream Mac OS X Lion content on my Apple TV (e.g. streams from browser with video and audio)

    Hey folks,
    I got a new Apple TV 3rd generation. Its fine with my ipad, but I wanna stream content from flash based websites via my MacBook(2007) with OS X Lion.
    Do you have any Idea how to do it? I know e.g. AirParrot, but as far as I know with AirParrot I will not be able to stream the SOUND to my TV, it will only mirror my screen or the Browser Window.
    cheers

    Update: I now bought a Airport Extreme which I connected to the Easybox 803 , switched off the easybox WLAN and use the APE in "bridge" mode to do the WLAN work. This works perfectly, all MAC and iOS devices Airplay well and also my brother printer is now acknowledged by the system
