I just upgraded to lion but I don't have airdrop

I just upgraded by Macbook Pro to Lion.  I got launchpad and mission control so I know the upgrade worked, but I don't have airdrop.  Airdrop was my favorite thing about the upgrade, but i didn't get it.  Anyone else have the same problem or know what to do about it? thanks

OS X Lion- Can I use AirDrop with my computer?

  • I just upgraded to lion but mainstage won't open

    just upgraded from snow leopard 10.6.8 to lion 10.7.3 yesterday.  logic 9.1.6 works fine but mainstage won't open.  it stops at the "initializing graphics" stage and goes no further.  i also note that the icon idicates it is version 2.0.0 which i thought was an earlier version but i'm not sure.  could lion have transformed mainstage back to an earlier version and not done the same to logic?  how weird!!
    any recommendations?

    Contact this address below and request a new download, and that the one you have does not open or it crash whe doing so.
    They open up my account and allowed me to reinstall.
    My redowndloaded Mainstage is now working on my MacB Pro, and four [4] externals, with out any problems.
    Hope this will help others, who are having a problem with Mainstage v 2.2.1

  • I just upgraded to Lion but still can't buy Pages/Numbers!

    I talked to three Apple Experts (online, in store, by phone) and was assured that once I paid $60 to upgrade from my OS X 10.5.8 system to OS X Lion (not Mountain Lion, apparently my system can't handle that one) I would be able to purchase and use the Pages and Numbers apps.
    The whole reason I need this is that my Open Office program mashes and skews every Word doc and excel spreadsheet I open from work. I need something that is truly compatible so that I can edit documents at home for work.
    I went ahead and bought both Snow Leopard and Lion. I went into the App Store and found something curious: The Pages and Numbers apps went from 9.99 to 19.99 AND when I try to buy them am told that they only work on OS X Mountain Lion. So what's the deal? Was I lied to or is there a secret trick making these programs work?

    There are some features that only work in Mountain Lion, but the program itself should run in Lion. The requirements state 10.7.4 is required. Do you have that version of Lion installed?
    If so, you need to use the support link on the main Mac App Store page.

    I haven't noticed any major problems going back and forth with Word/Pages, but if your goal is as stated, I don't think Pages is the answer. Word is the only thing truly compatible with Word.

  • HT3737 I have a new mac with Lion but I don't have a menu bar. How do I launch the menu bar?

    I just booted up a new mac-mini that came with Lion. However, I don't have a menu bar.  Is there a setting I need to change?

    If it's a fresh installation that is going through its initial boot sequence then you will need to run through utilities to set up your account, which may not show the menu bar. Once logged into your account the menu bar should show up. What happens when you click the little blue smily face icon in the Dock at the bottom of your screen (this is the Finder icon)?

    Any help will be appreciated

    Is Lightroom 4 still installed on the old computer? If it is then you can get the serial number from there. If it isn't, and you registered your copies of Lightroom with Adobe then you can log into your account and get the serial number from there.

    I still have OS x 10.5.8 and can't find Leopard, can I just upgrade to Lion?

    No, unless you have the Lion USB thumbdrive. Phone the Apple Store and order Snow Leopard.

  • I have just bought my first mac and have been told that i can get a free upgrade to lion but it seems that this is only an option in the us and canada, not the uk. is this true?

    i have just bought my first mac and have been told in pc world that i can get a free upgrade to lion, but it would appear that this is only for those in the u.s. and canada. is this true? also from reading the discussions it seems that lion is not a good thing. i am already regretting my decision to go to a mac.

    I have found that both Linux and Mac (unix) are capable of reading "deep" folders while win 32 will have issues, your it people are clearly wrong.  I run a network with both win/mac. And as long as the win servers/pc's that have shares are set to allow apple file sharing in their folder properties.   And the macs are set to allow smb there should absolutely no trouble with you accessing anything across the platforms, heck, from a Mac to a win pc on some occasions you don't even need to include a "domain" name to log on to, and you can create aliases and make your own shortcuts etc... So you don't have to manually connect each time you boot up etc... But that's all personal preferences I suppose.
    All I can tell you is that, I do it on a daily basis managing a small business. So your answer is yes you can.

  • I just upgraded to Lion and switched my web page from MobileMe to Godaddy. But since upgrading to Lion a video I placed on my web page no longer shows up. instead I get "plug-in failure". That didn't happen until the Lion Upgrade what do I do?

    What's the format of your video? That will give you a hint as to what plugin is failing (or missing).
    If you don't know, what's the URL of your site - it shouldn't take long for someone to work out the specifics.

  • I have a macbook and I just upgraded to Lion upgraded my iTunes software also setup a gmail acct in addition to my aol acct...just checked diagnostics and the connection doctor says I'm connected with server for both mail systems, but I'm not getting mail

    I have a macbook and I just upgraded to Lion, downloaded the new software for Itunes and added a gmail account in addition to my existing aol account.  Altho both mail systems are visible in my mail account I'm no longer receiving emails from either account.  I checked the mail doctor and both accounts are connected to the server, but I can't figure out why I'm not receiving emails any longer.  I'm trying to clean-up my stuff before I add my new Iphone, but I must admit all of this is rather daunting. Also does anyone know when tech support is available?  it must be PST cause no one is there at 8AM EST!

    Hello,
    It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
    My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
    At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
    Reset the Firewire bus
    If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device.  A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
    1. Shut the machine down.
    2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
    3. leave it for 10 minutes.
    4. Connect back up and reboot.

    I just upgraded to the 5S now I have random music on my phone, some stuff I've never head of, some stuff that is on my computer but I don't have it selected to sync onto my phone. How do I delete these songs? I haven't hooked it up to my computer. iTunes matches has never been turned on and I did turn off the Show all Music option. Some songs have the option to slide from right to left to bring up the delete button but not the ones I want to delete! I want them gone please help! I really don't want/need carni music from my daughters 4th bday party on my phone!! If anyone has a solution that does not involve me plugging into my computer that'd be awesome....

    Hi Anythony ...
    v10.8..2? Most reccent version of Lion is v10.7.4.
    Use Lion Recovery to repair the startup disk if necessary, or reinstall the Mac OS X.
