If you backed up before the upgrade, restore the backup.
If not you are going to have to erease the disk and install the older OS.
You should back up any data you want before so that it can be restored afterwards.
Is there a version of you CAD program that is Lion compatable? That would be an easier solution.

I submitted my question but ran out of room in the box. I can still down load new Apps to my iPod touch AND update them but CAN NOT update the older Apps. that was on the iPod before the problem.
I have been to Three Apple Service Center stores - In Tulsa OK, Oklahoma City OK, Tacoma WA and NO ONE could tell me what is the problem OR what to do to correct it. The Tech then tells me to get hold of the main Apple Service Center number. I tell them I already have and they still recommend going to them.
I have erased all information and started over as a new iPod Touch but the problem persists.
I have called the Apple Service number and they tell me to do everything that the the Tech's at the Apple Service center stores tried to do but DID NOT work.
After I spend a lot of time on the phone, I get told to make an appointment at a Apple Service center store so they can physically have hands on assistance. Come on folks I have already done that and they were of no help. When I say that, I get told that may be the only way I can get the problem resolved.
Surely there is someone out there that knows something about what is happening OR not happening with my iPod and provide a solution.

I have a mac book pro that i bought in late 2009. My current software is snow leopard version 10.5.8. I would like to get the new lion operating system but I cant without first getting the latest version of snow leopard. however when I go to update my software it doesnt show that any update is available.
10.5.8 is Leopard, not Snow Leopard. You need the Snow Leopard DVD;
You can get it only by phone now from Apple.
In the US, call 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask for a sales assistant. Last quoted price was $19.99 for the single-user and $29.99 for the family licence.
For other countries, check here; http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
Don't forget to ask for Sales; the tech support guys can't help.
If you want Lion, rather than Mountain Lion, the same Sales team can give you a download code to use at the Mac AppStore.
To get the App Store, you need to update your new Snow Leopard from 10.6.3 (which is the version on the installer) to 10.6.8 with the combo update; http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Be warned that the upgrades will render a lot of older software unusable, and will need new drivers for printers and scanners in all likelihood. -
This is the 2nd time in the same day that I've sought out the Apple support communities after never once having to in the 6 years that I've used Apple products. All of my Apple products (iphone 3GS, 2 ipods, an imac with snow leopard, 2 ibooks) has worked very well that I've purchased from Apple until the last two products I've purchased.
Within the last month I've purchased the iphone 4S and upgraded to Lion on my iMac. When I bought the iphone 4S I was shown that there was a new feature, iCloud, loved it! What a great idea for people like me that have multiple Apple products and now that information can be merged together without plugging in a cord!? I upgraded to Lion to have the same capabilities from my imac, to my ipad, to my iphone. The Lion operating system has had more glitches and problems than I could have ever imagined any apple product having (I've already started a discussion on how to get through to Apple that Lion needs to be reworked).
So far I've had nothing but problems with the iphone 4S, (Apps quitting, phone freezing, calls dropping, calls not going through, Bluetooth connection). After contacting support I was told to power off the phone (had already done that), and then to reset the phone (actually very easy with iCloud), but this is not something you should have to do with an Apple product that is a week old. Even after resetting the phone has continued to have the same problems. I'm considering taking it back, but I loved my 3GS so much before, and I'm expecting / hoping an update will come out that fixes all of these problems.
Is anyone having these same problems after upgrading phones?
Has anyone heard of updates coming out?
Is iCloud part of the problems I've been experiencing with my iPhone 4 S and the Lion operating system?
I used to feel that Apple was synonymous with problem free computers and gadgets. I've continued to buy and use so many Apple products because they worked so well with very few problems. Did Apple's ability to make quality products die with the old CEO?Sounds like the backup of your old phone, which was restored to the new phone, was / is corrupt. Set it up as a new device. Do NOT restore your backup. See how it behaves. I'm will ing to bet the entire problem with the phone has been caused by a corrupted backup that is now affecting your phone. Every time you restore, the problem comes with it.
I've had no problems at all with Lion or my iPhone 4S. -
Is Elements 6 for Mac compatible with new Lion operating system?
I'm planning to buy a new iMac with OS X Lion. Will the Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac program that I am currently using be compatible with the Lion operating system?
Adobe's official response about any software and any major operating system update is that since the software wasn't tested on the new OS, they don't consider it compatible. Just as they never update the system requirements to show updated versions of the compatible OS. They just don't go there at all. If you called them they would say no, but not based on experience or experiment, merely on policy.
I don't think there's anything especially complicated--based on what I hear in real life, people who don't have Open in Rosetta turned on when they upgrade to lion are mostly okay, while there's no way to make it go if you did have it set for Rosetta. I would guess a new install would be fine, but I haven't had a chance to try it out myself yet. Scanning and such are likely to have problems, and of course older ppc plug-ins won't work anymore. -

I can't download songs from my account because I now live in Mexico. How do I get my music from Icloud and down load new ones to my computer?
Hi gene98,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you still need to change the country for your iTunes Store account. Please review the attached article for information and instruction on how to do so.
Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account

Have a great day,

Down loaded new music to new nano, but cannot delet songs
down loaded new music to new nano, but I cant seem to delete any songs.
Why can you not delete them? How are you trying to delete the songs?
How you add and delete songs depends on how you have your iPod set up to sync with your iTunes library whether that be manually or automatically.

when trying to down load new itunes version, I get airtraffichost.dll, and itnunes will stop installing. HELP ME
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
The error hints at a similar pattern to those discussed in the first and third boxes of the user tip, suggesting that you've got an outdated .dll file that needs replacing. You should find AirTrafficHost.dll in the one of the following folders:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
Delete it and then repair Apple Mobile Device Support from the Programs and Features control panel. If that doesn't work go for the full tear down and rebuild.

I just installed the Lion operating system, basically to upgrade my iPhone. I didn't realize that my Microsoft Office 2004 application would no longer work. I have been using Word for my writing and I receive most of my emails with Word attachments. I have been using Apple products for years, always touting their reliability and customer service. I am not a techie, I just want to be able to do what I do on the computer and Apple always fulfilled my needs. Now I am told because of some operating system gobbledygook, I have to go out and purchase new software to use Word. This is despicable. I see no particular benefit to using Lion, but I do see a lot of detriments. Apple now seems to have turned into Microsoft, making software obsolete so they can make more money and to **** with the customer. You can be sure that my next computer will be a PC. I have completely lost confidence in Apple.
I seem to never tire of saying this. It was for Apple when they first announced 10.7 to disclose this. Yes, it was widely reported -- or rather, rumored -- but not by Apple. And many people who have gotten caught by this assumed that Apple itself would have told them beforehand about the loss of this very important feature which they had come to rely on. As far as I know, not even in fine print, does this appear anywhere on the Lion announcement or any of its links.
I am not saying Apple had to continue Rosetta in Lion, or forever, just that if it was going to be dropped, it should have been made known.
As relative "insiders" we should not forget that many people don't have the time, habit or interest to do this kind of research. I think it is a breach of trust that Apple has never directly made this announcement or given people the opportunity to decide beforehand if giving up their PPC apps for a new OS is a worthwhile tradeoff. -
The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my emails. I can't seem to purchase this on-line as it keeps telling me to go to the app store. I haven't got the app store on my computer as I am told I need iCloud for which I need the new operating system, which I can't download or purchase as I am sent back to an instruction telling mee to go to the app store icon.
How difficult can it be to simply purchase the software on-line have it shipped to you so you can install it, in the event it cannot be downloaded as it appears it can't be based on my curent operating systems being Mac OSX 10.5.8.Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from download, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.

Since I upgraded to the new iOS 7 operating system for my iphone, I can no longer adjust the volume on my alarm. No matter what setting the volume of my phone is my alarm is always full blast. Since I hate being startled awake, what can I do?
Go to your home screen, and then press the volume down or up button. It should say Ringer instead of volume. If it doesn't do that, try going into the clock app and try it there.
