I'm having all kinds of problems since loading Lion and I really wish I hadn't bought it yet. Even after the software update today, 1. my modem still won't work, 2. Photoshop Elements produces muddy photo prints, 3. View preferences in windows don't hold,  etc.  Anybody at Apple listening?  Anybody else out there having these kinds of problems?

10.7 was horrible unstable so I waited until 10.7.1 and tried it again. Well I have to say that it is still a defective OS. I am reverting to Snow as we speak from my carbon clone copy.. This is really the worst OSX I have ever used. It gives me random Kernel panics for no reasons, unstable airport and hundreds of small issues that are just not necessary. For instance I can't use QuickTime in Lion to trim a videoclip ( the UI goes mad and the trimslider becomes inoperable and hangs the Player window ) while in Snow it is no problem. Itunes gives me crackling sound when the equalizer is turned on, Graphical glitches in Photoshop, games crashing, Preview.app not working with some pdfs, so I need Adobes reader which I never used before.. It is definately not ripe for mass usage. Might 10.7.2 or 10.7.3 fix it, but not yet.
* and just for the records : the hardware is absoltely ok. Because in Snow it works as it should. ( So many Lion fanbois are talking : "your Ram is defect", defintely NOT. - Lion is defect! ).
Shame on you Apple.

  • After the Airport update today, Airport Utility no longer sees my new Extreme or my 2 new Airport Express relay stations (same network); however, my internet is working and all Airports are green?

    After the Airport update today, Airport Utility 6.0 no longer sees my new Extreme or my 2 new Airport Express relay stations (same network); however, my internet is working and all Airports are green?  I'm running Lion on my iMac and updated when Airport Utility prompted me to do so a few hours ago.  After applying the updates is when Airport Utility stopped seeing my routers.  But they are working?  Thoughts?

    Did you remember to completely power cycle the entire network?
    You would want to do this after any update or change to the network.
    If you did not do this yet......things are out of sequence.
    Power off everything on the network.....all devices.....power down order is not important
    Wait a few minutes
    Start the modem first and let it run a minute or two by itself
    Start the next device connected to the modem the same way
    Work your way out on the network starting each device about a minute apart
    Check the network

    if you are subscribed to the Hardwell podcast... quickly open the Podcast app and delete the most recent Hardwell podcast from 3/22.
    for some reason that's causing the crash. i've deleted and it works fine again.

  • My 3-year-old Macbook is suddenly having all kinds of problems.

    Symptoms, all within a few weeks with no warning: First iTunes got corrupted. Then lots of 'corrupt file' error message with Word (seems to be xlsx files). Then Entourage started crashing repeatedly and hanging up. The fan started coming on a lot.
    What I've done: Visited the genius bar. Scanned the disks--no problems there. Installed and ran iAntivirus--no problems there. Did a clean install of OS X. Did a few one-off solutions that I found on other forms to address fan and Entourage database problem.
    Result: Even after the reinstall, I am still getting corrupt Word files. Fan still comes on more than it should.

    The Genius should have done a SMART scan. That is standard procedure, especially with a new hard drive.

  • My lock button no longer works on my ipod touch and now i have all kinds of problems with it freezing and kicking me out of apps. Is there any way to get this fixed and were would i go to get it fixed?

    Please Help!!!! I have an ipod touch 4th gen.  and since the last update the lock button no longer works, this has caused it to have a lot of problems now like freezing all the time, kicking me out of almost all my apps, some times even when if locks on its own its not locked and buttons with be pushed in my pocket, and this causes the battiery to die fast.   I really love my ipod and would like to just get it fix if possible for a reasonable about of money. Anyone know of a place I can get it fixed in Ft Lauderdale Fl area or is there something I can do?

    Have you tried:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be 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.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

    Hi Vikki!
    I'm glad you're able to move things along yourself and therefore answer your own questions! Shows that you're putting in the effort! :-)
    With regards to uninstalling the DKU-2 drivers, I've detailed how you can do this in another post although as the post says, be very careful when following the instructions... link is as follows:
    http://discussions.nokia.co.uk/discussions/board/m​essage?board.id=pcsuite&message.id=1863
    Once you've got the old DKU-2 drivers removed, try reinstalling PC Suite 6.7 and it should work ok.
    Just to clarify an earlier point as well, the PC Suite should connect ok to multiple phones... even at the same time!!
    Hope this helps.

  • Lightroom 5.6 "Edit in" with merge won't work with Photoshop Elements 13

    I just installed Photoshop Elements 13 to edit photos from Lightroom. A single file will via "Edit in" will work, but all action on multiple files end in "could not start editor", even though the editor does start, it just won't open up any photos. Photomerge will work from files opened in Photoshop Elements, but i really don't want to organize my catalogue in both programs.
    All combinations of export settings result in the same, i also deleted my settings again and tested it with another account on my computer.

    None of my "Edit In" worked with the pictures in Lightroom for a particular folder. I expanded the 2014 folder and found that two subfolders had a "?" in front of the 2014-07-04" and another. In other words, the folder was missing. After I found the missing folders using the Lightroom "Find Missing Folder" option, I was able to use the "Edit In" menu item. The 2014 folders weren't expanded at first, so I didn't see the ? marks in front of them. With the missing folders, Lightroom's "Edit In" option was basically telling me there was no picture to "Edit In." Howerver, I have Previews and Smart Previews made when I import picture files into Lightroom. So, the "pictures" showed in the slide strip on the bottom, and also in the display in "expand," but it was actually only showing the previews I had built, not the actual missing pictures in the missing folders. I had accidentally moved some directories using Windows Explorer, and I didn't realize my "happy fingers" moved them outside of Lightroom. Of course, Lightroom has no way of knowing I moved them, and just shows the "?" before the missing folder name. After expanding the root folder, then knew what to do. Fixed it easily. It was frustrating, and took about 20 minutes to see the problem. And that fixed the greyed-out "Edit In" Photoshop CC 2014, and all the other plug-ins were greyed out too.
    Hope this fixes your problem.

  • ITunes won't integrate with Photoshop Elements 6 for Photo Syncing

    I just recentley upgraded to Photoshop Elements 6 for organizing my photos, but for some reason, it keeps showing up my old Photoshop Elements 5 catalouge (which by the way, states that there's 0 pictures on listed albums) instead of my new Photoshop Elements 6 cataloug.
    Is this a glitch in iTunes or problem with Adobe...
    Also is this integration error something to do with Adobe delaying the release of Photoshop Elements 6 for Mac?

    Upgraded to iTunes 7.6, and now the sync is working perfectley....
    I KNEW IT! Adobe delayed the release of Photoshop Element for Mac BECAUSE OF iTunes for Windows AND iPhoto INTEGRATION PROBLEMS!!!!
    WHY ADOBE, WHY DID YOU WROTE THE SOFTWARE THAT DELAYED THE DEVELPEMENT FOR MAC VERSION!
    Anyway, the problem is solved!

  • I need to delete programs that have been duplicated after the software update has been done.  The computer won't delete them.  Anyone else having this problem and if so, how do I delete the old program after it's been updated.

    After upgrading software, it appears the old software isn't deleted.  My computer hard drive is almost full so I need to delete a ton off of my computer.  When checking the software that can be deleted I noticed I can the old software hasn't been deleted.  How can a person do this?  Any suggestions on how to quickly dump some programs.

    Sig is right — reclaiming space on your hard drive should be a matter of looking for the largest files you can delete, not starting with applications. I have 200+ applications on my hard drive, and altogether they occupy less than 14GB of space. Just a handful of them — Acrobat Pro, iPhoto, Aperture, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign and Adobe Media encoder — are larger than 500MB apiece, and if I disposed of all of those, I'd only get 5.6GB back. My Utilties folder contains 78 apps, and it only amounts to 1.1 GB.
    If you have any feature-length movies on your hard drive, those should be the first things you trash or move to an external drive.

  • Toshiba 3D TV conked off after automatic Software Update!! Need help to get it working like before

    Hi there,
    I' Using the Toshiba 46TL963G TV since 5 monts, recetly i asked for the **bleep** new software update and I let it install (ofcourse its connected via ethernet cable). After instalment the TV restarted automatically and everything was fine. I could watch TV well and I turned it OFF. and later Next morning When I turned On, it doesn't function anymore!!
    How Crap is this TV.. It does the automatic software update and it conks off itself!!!
     and the most annoying thing is that I went to this website "http://support.toshiba.com/" to get the support for this TV and when I entered the 8 charachter moderl of my TV , it say, wrong entry. WTF!!!! You dont clain your own product as yours??
    Please help me how can I get my TV working fine as before, else I really have to start working on creating a blog "Reason Why one SHOULD not buy TV from TOSHIBA"
    - Many thanks
    Aravind

    Peter, You _know_ that the firmware update crashes the TV. There have been enough reports of this online, and so much of it here on this forum that you cannot have missed it. Users need to resort to auto-flashing the firmware with files that are not publicly available from your site. Could you not at least remove the offending firmware from the list of things the television can automatically download? Aravind, you might try contacting the toshiba support to get them to send you the correct file to put on an USB device to force the TV to launch the update once plugged. Roaming the forums, it seems like this file should be something like "46TL963G_******_INIT_CLEAR.bin". Kellindil

  • I am having all kinds of problems with playlists since I downloaded 0s8

    Since I downloaded 0S8 on my phone, ipap, iPod touch, and iPod and my powerbook,  I can't get playlist from iTunes to transfer over.  I also can't see songs I had currently put into a playlist unless I back totally out of iTunes.  What's going on.  I was djing a gig when the song I selected came out totally different from what was selected.
