HT5313 After installing this update my password is not valid any more.

Hi all
After I have installed the latest update for OSX Lion I can't login anymore!!! I know my password is correct but it's not accepted anymore. That's very bad!!!!
Somebody has a solution for this?

I found the solution. I have a swiss german keyboard but after the update a german keyboard layout was set. So since I'm having an asteriks in my password the login didn't work anymore.
So everybody be aware with a swiss german setting!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After latest security update my MacBook is not finding any network and I think is not really turning wifi on. Has anyone encountered similar problem?

Checked the older discussion of the same type and found solution, well kind of... Thanks to other people who tried it, I just cannot remember their names at the moment. So, the solution for me was to turn off the firewall in the system preferences and suddenly lo and behold there was my network.

I had the download file open all the time and closing that has solved (looks like) the problem. However, this was not an issue while I use the regular mouse.

HT5130 My MacBook with OSX 10.6.8 doesn't reboot after installing this update

Has somebody else had that problem?

It could be either a hardware failure or one with the driver. A quick first check is to see if the hardware sees it. Under 10.6 you would go to About This Mac..., and then click the "More Information" button if I recall correctly (under 10.7 there's an extra screen) to get to System Information. There click the "USB" item under hardware.
You should see the camera listed:
If it's not listed at all that suggests a hardware failure. If it's listed the problem may be somewhere in the drivers or some other program in your account grabbing the camera.
If it is listed you could check the account by set up a "throw away" additional account (System Preferences, Users). Log into that account instead of your main account and see if the camera works there.

I have been given an Apple 3G which is in jailbreak. After restoring and updating my phone will not accept any updates or restoration. Unknown error 1015. Please help!

I have been given an Apple 3G which is in jailbreak. After restoring and updating my phone to get rid of jailbreak the iphone will not accept any updates or restoration. Unknown error 1015. Please help! I am new to all this and want to start using the phone legitimately.

I believe from the situation you describe your iPhone 3g has the iPAD baseband 6.15.00 which is interfering with iTunes. Remember Apple does not allow downgrade of software typically. The current 3g firmware 4.2.1 has a baseband 5.15.04 which is lower than, what I believe your baseband is of 6.15.00. So to install the current 3g firmware 4.2.1 would actually be a baseband downgrade, which iTunes will not allow. So to fix your iPhone you will have to search the Web like diesel vdub said. There are no parts to buy and your iPhone will work again I promise.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If your computer meets the minimum requirements, you can purchase and download OS X 10.7 'Lion' from the Mac App Store online. It is also available on a flash drive at about double the price of the download.
http://www.apple.com/macosx/
Specs, minimum hardware requirements, and upgrade paths for OS X 10.7 'Lion' are also listed here:
http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html
Even though Lion runs in 2GB system RAM, 4GB or more is highly recommended.
Also be aware that Apple recently announced the next version of OS X, 10.8, called 'Mountain Lion', but no firm date for availability, other than 'coming this summer.'

After installing an update my iMac will not start

I have an old iMac purchased in Feb '06 Intel 2 GHz 20" . It serves some basic needs and I enjoy the machine. Recently I was notifyed of an available update from Apple and I downloaded it and installed it. The machine now comes up to a white screen with the Apple logo in the center and a spinning pinwheel beneath. I have attempted to force it to a recovery disk, safe mode and disk manager at startup with no results. I then inserted the installation disk and started it with the same results. It will not eject the disk.
I would love to know if there is something else I can do here before taking it into the Apple Geniius.
Thanks Jerry

Paul, thanks for your suggestions. Regrettably, none of these procedures helped my problem. Interestingly I just installed the same update on my 3 year old iMac and that same screen came on and remained for an unusual amount of time. It took an excessive amount of time to finally come back with running apps in place. A recent update on my MacBook Air went on briskly. I'm not sure what any of that means but there it is. By the way - I let the old iMac run with that startup screen for over an hour thinking it may just be old and needs more time. Being older myself, I felt it couldn't hurt.
Thanks. I am not sure what the Genius Bar can do but it seems that is my next move unless someone comes up with a magic bullet out here.

After installing windows updates, new tabs will not open, either on toolbar, ctl t or under file

it will open a new window. Only known on laptop because windows up completely crashed my desktop. Computer hell.

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

Bad behavior after installing recent updates.

This has gone beyond irritating and is actually interfering with my use of the computer.
I typically wait to install updates, to give the community a chance to discover trouble before I put my machine at risk. Apple updates are, in most cases, spotless and useful but there have been times...
I seem to have found one of these not so sweet spots.
I just installed: "QuickTime" (7.4.1) and Security Update 2008-001 (PowerPC)
At the end of this process the first disturbing problem happened, rather than being informed that I needed to restart the machine at the end of the installation the screen did that awful 'dark window shade' and then put up the warning to hold down the power button and shut down.
I had no choice but to do this. After restarting I ran Disk Utility and Repaired the Permissions. Despite this and another restart for good measure I now have a disturbing problem. In a very periodic way, its about 1 minute, the finder opens a window and brings focus to it, overlapping whatever application I am working in at the time. I have a number of of drives in this machine and each has several partitions. No matter what partition I choose in advance the finder window always opens with the partition chosen that has the OS and applications in it.
Even writing this post is difficult because the window keeps popping up as a try to write.
I opened the console log and found something odd as well...
2007-12-24 13:48:25 -0800: Installed "Security Update 2007-009 (PowerPC)" (1.1)
2008-01-15 23:57:27 -0800: Installed "iTunes" (7.6)
2008-01-15 23:58:22 -0800: Installed "QuickTime" (7.4)
2008-02-20 12:27:50 -0800: Installed "QuickTime" (7.4.1)
No mention of the Security Update 2008-001.
I am not sure how to proceed but I am not going to install this on any other machines. I am thinking of running Cocktail but I will wait till I hear from my learned Mac brethren.
Thanks in advance.

There are no guarantees, but following this procedure when installing updates and upgrades on your Mac will go a long way towards avoiding unpleasant after effects and ‘post-update stress disorder’.
It is also worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site. If your car runs on gasoline you would not want to fill the tank with diesel, so don’t try to install the PPC updater on an Intel Mac!
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.4.10 to 10.4.11. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them 10.4.10. compliant. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
If you are updating to Safari 3.0.4 (or just have):
Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed 10.4.11 and Safari is crashing, the very first thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 uses Safari 3.0.4 which is not a beta. If Safari 3.0.4 on 10.4.11 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
Moreover, trying to revert to Safari 2 when running 10.4.11 can have repercussions, as Safari 3.0.4 uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail and Dashboard Widgets etc also rely.
Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on. Two such add-on that have been frequently mentioned here for causing such problems are Piclens and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them.
