Lion creates a Recovery partition on your harddrive. You will need to boot from startup.

  • I charged my iPod on my computer, and now iTunes gives me a message that I need to "restore" my iPod, but that if I "restore" it, I will lose all my settings.  I don't even use itunes on my iPod.  What can I do?

    I only use my ipod touch for downloading audio books with Overdrive and do not use itunes on it.  Today I charged my ipod on my mac, and my mac screen now tells me that  itunes has detected that my ipod is in "recovery mode" and   I need to "restore" my ipod, but the message warns that if I "restore" my ipod, I will lose all my settings and be back to factory settings.  All that shows up on my ipod screen  is the itunes logo and a charging cord.  I would be so grateful for some help.

    When in recovery mode you can't backup the iPod.
    You will have to restore via iTunes. See:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    Hello babichanjacob
    Change how it syncs by enabling Manually manage music and videos, then you can drag and drop the music that you want on your iPhone. Revert it back to test to see if that resolves the issue.

    After installing Lion, Aperture 3.1.3 no longer opens.  Do I need to reload Aperture 3.1.3?

    Did you ever hear a solution to this problem? I just launched Aperture today and got the same problem - the applicatiion crashes after it launches.
    The only recent update I can think of is the lastest aperture raw updates. I am looking for solutions to this urgent problem.
    Here is the specific error I am receiving in the crash report:

  • My 3G unlocked iPhone is not syncing mail or contacts from my mac book pro, using Lion. I am able to get a calendars and music, only. I get the message that I need to reset the password which I have done 3x's on the phone and on the Apple server.

    My 3G unlocked iPhone is not syncing mail or contacts from my mac book pro, using Lion. I am able to get a calendars and music, only. I get the message that I need to reset the password which I have done 3x's on the phone and on the Apple server.

    Good to know that, but what can I do to get the mail and contacts downloaded from Icloud onto my Iphone?  I am told that the password needs to be reset and I have erased and reset it 3x's already? Should I Restore All Settings or Restore Network Settings or will that result in a situation where I have to have it re-unlocked again? GRACIAS!

  • I am freeing up some space and am using osx lion, but i have 12gb of back ups, how can i delete these and what are they?

    I am freeing up some space and am using osx lion, but i have 12gb of back ups, how can i delete these and what are they?

    Gotcha.
    Back-ups are what they are: a safety copy. If you feel you don't need them, you can trash them. They could be of a previous System if you upgraded, or something else. You wont get the full picture from looking at system profiler.
    You may want to look into getting an external drive and offloading some stuff to it.

  • After installing an SSD into my optical bay, I've found out I need EFI Firmware Update 2.2. I can only find 2.3 which is not supported on my Mac. What can I do?

    After installing an SSD into my optical bay, I've found out I need EFI Firmware Update 2.2. I can only find 2.3 which is not supported on my Mac. What can I do?

    You do not want EFI 2.2, it bricked many 2011 MacBook Pro machines.
    EFI 2.3 is the fix. Software Update should install it if you need it, but it goes to the boot drive as that's where the hidden EFI resides.
    Check out this link of machines and their EFI versions
    https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
    Also if your SSD should be in the hard drive bay as it makes a better boot/applicaitions drive, not a good storage drive as it wears out with repeated use and is not "scrubbable" like a regular hard drive
    The hard drive should be in the optical bay and used as a storage drive, you have things all messed up inside your machine, Apple doesn't support or expect the optical drive to be used as such to begin with, then as a boot drive is just asking for trouble. So use the optical bay as storage and not as a boot bay.
    Also you can't install OS X or Windows or use a Firmware restore disk because it only works from a internal optical drive, which you have removed.
    https://support.apple.com/kb/HT2213
    You need to learn all about cloning etc., as you have no other means to boot the machine.

    Stop being impatient.
    From the article that the question was posted from:
    Errors related to downgrading iOS
    The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go to Settings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed.   Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported.
    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.
    You cannot downgrade.
    If you have a 3GS, you can only install iOS 6.1.3 which is the current version of iOS for the device.
