I am getting really strange Finder behaviuors since Lion upgrade!

Hi
I have now upgraded all three of my Macs to Lion and there are some weird things going on with Finder.
My MacBook Air seems fine and the new Finder window looks okay.
My Mac Mini on the other hand while in general is fine the Finder window is showing the OLD type of dividers in Lisy view!
My iMac is showing teh Lion type dividers in List view BUT when I change Preferences to New Finder Window Opens Documents, then the left hand Favourites Column disapears, pick most other options and it comes back, pick Documents again and it is gone.
And yet on my other two Macs, they are set to Documents and are working fine and as expected!
On my iMac I cannot set a background on one of my monitors!
Lastly, well for this list anyway, I can not Share Screen of my Mac Mini on ethernet, if I connect to its WiFi address I connect fine.
On Ethernet, I can access and shre files from the Mac Mini but cannot Share Screen which is kind of important as it does not have a screen attached!!!!!!!!!
AAahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Try the following:
- A reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. Sometimes when you update and do other things files will be corrupted and make the "other" category large. Restoring from backup usually reduce the other .
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

  • Strange Finder behaviour since installing Mountain Lion

    I've been experiencing some strange finder behaviour since updating to Mountain Lion. Folders take several seconds to open after clicking on them (and sometimes won't open at all) and files cannot be moved around the desktop or dragged on to an app. However, it is possible to open a file by clicking on it. I've tried re-booting with Snow Leopard and everything seems OK, but as soon as I go back to ML, the problem starts again.

    Library is a folder, not a file. There're more than one Library folders, one at the root and one for each user in your Mac. All of them are hidden, this is why you can't find them. But you can see their contents using
    Finder Menu > Go > Go to Folder
    And then type:
    ~/Library
    for your Library Folder
    -or-
    /Library
    for the root Library folder.

  • Screen saver won't start since Lion upgrade. Two different machines, same issue.

    Screen saver won't start since Lion upgrade. Two different machines, same issue. Help

    For anyone following this thread, I've found a solution to my problem. Turns out that a cute widget called FishTank appears to be the culprit. With it running in Dashboard (even when I don't see Dashboard) the Screensaver and Sleep functions don't work. I turned it off, not because I'm clever, just because I tired of it, and voilà, Screensaver and Sleep are now working. It can stay in my widgets list without any problem, it just can't be turned on. I'm going to delete it anyway, however.
    Hope this points the way to solutions for some of the rest of you!
    Cheers!

    Anyone have problems getting Office 2004 to run after Lion upgrade?

    For the rare few, such as myself, who have some Office 2004 or older documents that fail to translate well in Office 2011, another option is to run Office 2004 in Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) installed in Parallels:

  • Strange 3GS behaviour since iOS4 upgrade

    I've searched through the posts here, and can't find reference to the various issues I've experienced since the upgrade 2 days ago:
    1. Most of the time, in email, text or Safari, the phone does not toggle back to portrait mode once it gets to landscape (who said there's no lock for landscape mode...anyone want to trade phones?). The only way to get it back is to turn the things off and on a few times (turning it 360 degrees or shaking the heck out of it sure doesn't work). This is VERY annoying and has never happened before.
    2. I regularly get a password prompt from home wifi, but then the [CORRECT] password is not accepted. Wifi works perfectly everywhere else, and on the Mac Book, but only about half the time at home. It used to work fine. Anyone else seen this issue?
    3. This is one many others seem to have experienced, but the phone & applications run very S-L-O-W & sluggish. It takes noticeably longer to do a lot of things.

    it will definitely improve your wallpaper resolution.
    as to everything else, i'm not too sure.
    i did not notice this kind of degradation you're talking
    about on my 3GS or any difference after re-syncing the photos.

  • Wifi goes on and off, backlit keyboard doesn't work and no sound since Lion  upgrade. I can get the wifi back by going into safe mode and re booting(someone suggested on here), but can't let computer die or turn off or have to do it again.

    My Wifi connection goes off if computer dies or shuts off, I can only make it work if I go into safe mode and reboot, it was just that, but now my keyboard doesn't light up like it's supposed to in low or no light and in system preferences it's like it doesn't exist.  Also, the sound doesn't work, I can't turn it up or down, it shows the sound icon grayed out and the anti symbol when I push F11 and F12, also it's like it doesn't exist in system preferences either. I have never had any problems with my MB Pro, I purchased in Feb. 2010. , but I upgraded to Lion last month, I haven't been using my laptop as much since I had an Ipad I given to me, so I think that's why I didn't notice these issues right away. What do I do? HELP!! Do I take it to Apple? I don't have the Apple care warranty, so will it be expensive for them to fix? Can I get my money back for Lion if I restore to Snow Leopard?

    Take it to an Apple store or AASP. How much it will cost will depend on their determination of the problems. To bad you didn't purchase extended AppleCare. No you don't get your money back for purchasing Lion.

  • Midi / USB drop out since Lion upgrade!

    Hi all, i have had great responses and success in the past with this forum, i really really hope this will continue.
    I have been gigging using mainstage 2 and a M-Audio Oxygen midi keyboard controller for a few years now and until lately it's been fantastic. I will never go back to a stand alone manufactured synth. I am using a macbook pro, 2.93ghz with 8 gb ram. I initially upgraded from snow leopard to lion when it was launched but had to go back as Creative hadn't any lion drivers for use with my emu 0202 audio interface. Last month i found that they had done them and i re-upgraded to Lion. Since the upgrade i am experiencing Midi drop outs. This is to say that whilst performing i get an error message saying something like midi input device no longer available. This has happened a few times now but last night (new years eve!!), not only did i get this message which i sorted with a reboot but a few minutes later i had a midi note hang and i noticed that there was no longer any usb supplied power to my keyboard. The answer again at this stage was a reboot.
    I would ideally not like to reinstall snow leopard as there are quite a few great things in lion which i would miss, but obviously if i can't resolve these issues i don't see that i have any other choice.
    Any possible suggestions as to what may be causing these problems will be very much appreciated.
    Thanking you in advance

    PS    Happy New Year

    My experience with Lion was great for a while, it was effortless, everything I had attached still worked with no problems aside from needing occasional drivers.  Once Lion 10.7.2 was released, I updated my system and again, no problems.  If I recall correctly, 10.7.2 was released in October.  Suddenly in December, I began having random software and midi issues all around my system.  I do not use Mainstage but I have noticed others have had similar problems with various software and USB midi controllers, and have not seen a fix.
    I regularly use Pro Tools 8, Ableton Live 8 and occasionally Reason 5.  I also have an M-Audio Axiom 61 and Korg padKontrol attached via USB.  After about 2 months of trouble-free operation, Live and Reason would not open and the accompanying software for my padKontrol no longer would either.  These apps would just "hang" and I would eventually have to force quit them.  In addition, Audio Midi Setup would also hang when attempting to switch to the midi preferences page.  Pro Tools still worked, but I could no longer receive midi signals.  I also use a wireless USB stick to connect to my home wifi signal and that no longer worked and neither did the accompanying software.
    It's possible that there are deeper issues in your system as well as mine and the others having similar problems.
    At times, I wonder if there is some kernel errors embedded in my computer.  I got my MacPro when Snow Leopard was fairly new and had numerous kernel errors resulting in many applications not functioning.  I eventually sorted them out but ran into similar USB related issues with the Snow Leopard 10.6.8 update, so I remained on 10.6.7 until Lion was released.
    The only successful fix I've had is switching from Lion back to Snow Leopard 10.6.7 after erasing my entire hard drive.  I've tried reinstalling Lion through both upgrading from Snow Leopard and a clean install of 10.7.2 after erasing my hard drive again.
    I believe my USB and midi problems stem from kernel errors somewhere but cannot find them (I have used Disk Utility many times).  I really liked using Lion but I lose so much functionality and my internet connection so I have determined that I will not be using it.  I may try Lion again when 10.7.3 is released but am wary.  If anyone has ideas on how to fix these issues, I would love to hear them.

  • Since lion upgrade iMac keeps looking for old server

    Hi,
    I have a NAS prior to Lion upgrade which was working perfectly. Now with the Lion upgrade the NAS (Sitecom) ther were some issues. I have reinstalled the NAs and had given it a new name. I can find the NAs now so thats not a problem.
    But almost every hour I get 2 warning that he can not find the "old NAS", it really start annoying me and I've looked everywhere and I don't even find any link (Finder) towards it so I don't know what to do to get rid of this message, receiving it every hour twice really start getting on my nerves.
    Sorry for th Dutch, but the message translates;
    A problem has occured with connecting to the server 'VanBeeckNAS'
    The server doesn't exist or is currently not available. Check the servername or the IP-address of the server, ...
    Any help is highly appreciated.
    Peter

    Same problem since lion. Not only can I not back up to the server it keeps looking for it several times on start up. Real annoying.

    There is a huge discussion of this issue:
    Frequent Panic NVRM[0/1:0:0]: Read...: Apple Support Communities
    It is not caused by third-party software. The true cause is unknown, or at least unknown to me. It's either a hardware fault or a bug in Lion that only affects certain Mac models. Take the machine to an Apple Store for testing.

  • Cannot import Canon DSLR video since Lion upgrade

    I use Aperture to import video from my Canon 60d DSLR.
    Since upgrading to Lion, Aperture has designated all of my Canon h.264 clips as "unsupported video format." They will play in the QuickTime X Player, but nowhere else.
    iMovie used to recognize video clips imported into Aperture and add them to the events list. Any videos added since my Lion upgrade remain unrecognized.
    Has anyone else encountered this? Is this something either Apple or Canon have noted publicly? It's a total pain and it's verging on being a Lion deal breaker for me. I really want to be able to import my Canon clips into iMovie without jumping through hoops.

    SdeS,
    Good idea to wait. I tend to be an early adopter on my MacBook Pro, but the other machines I use will stay on Snow Leopard for now.
    It doesn't seem like a Lion/Canon incompatibility. Rather it is a more generalized issue with applications being able to handle video types. I've read reports of problems with Nikon DSLRs and Flip cameras too. There are multiple reports in these forums of the problem, but not too many, which leads me to wonder if:
    People haven't experienced the problem yet; or
    The issue is related to legacy code or codec components on the affected users machines, but which doesn't impact the vast majority of Lion users.
    Still, it is huge problem as I would like to use my Mac to edit HD footage shot with my DSLR (or Flip camera for that matter).
    You're right, Apple obviously missed something in their beta testing, because with respect to video, Lion doesn't appear ready for prime time.

  • IPhoto library not loading since lion upgrade

    Hi,
    Since upgrading to lion, iphoto will not load the iphoto library anymore. iPhoto starts with the error message "your iphoto library is either in use by another application or you don't have permissions...". iPhoto was perfectly running on 10.6 (a few days ago) and luckily i have some time machine backups from before the lion upgrade.
    So i tried
    -to start iphoto with option+control and rebuilt the library. Unfortunately it stops with item 9000 or something.
    -tried to rebuild the library with iphoto library manager, but it causes so many problems with duplicates that i stoped the process. I guess it would probably fix the library but too much hassle.
    -tried to restore the library from time machine -> same error message
    Has anyone experienced same behaviour after upgrading to lion? It's too bad i can't just restore from the backup (i thought that's the point of having it) but may lead to the idea, that the iphoto application might be corrupted. I tried to download the ilife image from my university's software distribution server again, but last but not least, lion does not support the server version anymore "the version of server you are trying to connect is not supported...." So no download right now...
    Thx for any help and hints
    regards, dorian

    Hello,
    I am having this extremely frustrating problem as well. My iPhoto was working perfect two days ago and today after installing an upgrade (i always keep up with them) it refuses to load and all i get is a white gear looking shaped loading symbol.
    Help anyone....??
    Thanks!

  • External firewire 800 Iomega HD too slow since Lion Upgrade

    Hi all,
    Since my upgrade to OSX Lion im having the issue that my external Iomega HD is too slow to even playback my song (only audio files, About 9 Tracks of them). I removed all 3rd party plugins but the issue still occurs.
    Is anyone experiencing the same issue? Any ideas on how to resolve it?
    System:
    iMac Middle of 2010
    4GB 1333 Mhz DDR 3 Ram
    External Harddrive is a iomega 1TB firewire 800 disk.
    With Snow leopard it worked well... Maybe i was too fast with updating this time...
    Cheers

    Sorry little addition:
    It s about an external fw hd working with Logic- not in general slow performance.

  • Harddrive spinning nonstop since Lion upgrade?

    Since my upgrade to Lion two days ago, my HD is spinning all but continuously. Significant change from how it was just the day before the upgrade.
    Any others? Ideas?

    Have you found a cure for this disease yet? I'm in a similar situation but all queries seem to lead to dead theads.

  • Instable WIFI connection since Lion upgrade

    Hi all,
    Since end of June I became a convinced Apple-user when I bought my first Mac. After my recent Lion-upgrade I'm seriously considering to switch back to the Windows-platform...
    Since I upgraded to Lion, I experience serious instabilities in connecting to my WIFI: at random it seems that Safari is blocking my ADSL connection; this seems to be a known phenomenon, as  hundreds of users have the same problem (found this on all kind of forums).
    Unfortunately, I didn't found a root-cause solution:
          -The install of the latest Lion-patch didn't brought relief;
          - also multiple forums suggested to do a harddisk- & authorisation check; also without result.
         - Switching to a fixed IP-adress is also not solving the problem.
    The full reset of the iMac seems to be the only way to resolve, but this is ofcourse not a workable solution.
    Any other suggestion ?
    Many thanks of a very disapointed Apple-user,
    Peter

    update your lion to 10.7.1 and do these:
    1)reset smc
    2)reset pram
    it works well for me.i've never suffer from the wifi problem since then!

  • I have an iPod touch 4th gen 8 gb and ever since I got the iOS 6 update it has been slower and there appears to be less space and I am getting really frustrated any chance I can upgrade to the new 5 gen?

    Ever since i got ios 6 it has been a slower and it says i only have 2 gb left when i have10 app and 0 songs. I got this iPod a few years ago so the warranty has already expired. Please if there is any way I can upgrade let me know.

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. Sometimes when you update and do other things files will be corrupted and make the "other" category large. Restoring from backup usually reduce the other .
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
