I'm reading way to many bad things about the new Lion... is it worth it??
I'm reading way to many bad things about the new Lion... is it worth the upgrade and hassle or will this push me back to Google for e-mail, calendars and contacts? I love my Mobile.Me... Why change whats working for an OS thats not working ?
The more you read these forums the more you'd mistakenly think that Lion is generally a problem.
For every person who comes here with a problem there's many thousands who are running Lion hassle-free, including me.
I've used MobileMe since the beginning and have happily moved to iCloud, There's a couple of things you may miss from MobileMe in the short term but those things like iWeb hosting are going away anyway in June.
I suggest you join the millions of Happy Lion Users. Just back up your data in case you absolutely need to do a clean install back to Snow Leopard.

Thank you!2 - The included protector isn't very good and not designed for long term use. You need to invest in a better alternative. I got a pack of 3 from play.com for £5 and they are much better.
Can you please give me a link or the right name of this protector. I when to play.com and I only saw this of (

My Favorite Thing About the New Apple TV
....is that it only streams movies from your computer, so you can't watch them because it takes 20 mins to start a 45 minute kids show. That's plenty of time for the child to have a fit and move on to something else. I don't have to watch Elmo anymore. It's great!

ah thank you. it seems to work fine networking 2 laptops and a desktop and backing up all 3 on the the time capsule. we also have 2 iphones and an ipad using the same network without issues. the only thing that doesn't work properly (as i have found out in this thread) is the apple tv.
Are the other devices using the network continually the same time potentially reducing streaming bandwidth?
Can you run an ethernet cable between the streaming computer and AppleTV to see if that solves it for testing purposes?
What signal strength do you have for wi-fi on AppleTV (Settings menus)?
What kind of wireless network is it? b,g,n? single/dual band?
Have you rebooted AppleTV?
If wireless range is the issue and you can't run ethernet consider some powerline networking units like these:

What are the bad things about Apple Remote Desktop
What are the bad things about Apple Remote Desktop? Need it for my assignment
Is your assignment about managing a classroom full of Macs?
Otherwise, Screen Sharing, or a VNC client/server, or TeameViewer.com, or LogMeIn.com might be better, and less expensive.
ARD is intended for managing a classroom or office full of Macs. It is overkill for remotely accessing a remote Mac or two. -
I currently have Snow Leopard and am thinking of upgrading to Lion but have heard some bad things about it. Should I upgrade or not? What do you like/dislike about Lion?
It is indeed all down to what you need to do with your machine. Snow leopard is an excellent OS and as Baltwo suggests you have to check out your current apps and programs because PPC won't work on any higher OS than the one you have.
Andy's comment is very interesting and, I suspect, insider knowledge based Certainly I would wait for Mavericks now it is on the horizon ... and then add six months or so for the bugs to be ironed out.
Good luck, whatever you do. I'm staying with Snow Leopard. -
I READ A LOT OF BAD ABOUT THE NEW O.S. IF I DON'T LIKE IT HOW DO I GO BACK TO 10.8.5 I AM COMPETENT BUT NOT A SUPERGEEK OR EVEN A PRO SO K.I.S.S. WOULD BE GOOD
Make a bootable backup of your current system before upgrading or make a new partition on your hard drive and install the new OS on the new volume. Now two more things for someone who believes they are competent:
1. Don't believe everything you read on these forums. Only users with problems post here. Millions of other users don't post here because they manage not to have problems.
2. Don't use all CAPS. That is considered shouting. Shouting is bad netiquette. Please use mixed case. -
My itunes account was disabled for some reason. I changed password in iforgot and still didn't work. I could log in and see my music but not make purchases from the store or even redeem an itunes gift card so I set up a new login/account with another email account of mine. On the new account I can redeem my gift card and download items onto my ipad2. Is there any way to move my music to the new account?
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. -
Is there any way to get my reminders (from the new iPhone app) to sync with something on my laptop (Mail, iCal, some other desktop app)?
Yes, if you have iCloud set up on your phone and computer, then reminders will be synced through iCal.

The system doesn’t recognize or capitalize the word (I) or the first word of every sentence. Another really annoying thing about the integrated mail on your Mac computers is the fact that the system learns the word as you type it more and more instead of highlighting it as incorrectly is this is a word that’s being misspelled. Can Apple fix this bug to make it user friendly as if you were using Office or a Word Document?
You hit the target CT.
It’s only fair that if Apple is going to integrate Mail into Mac PCs, it would be nice if the system does it for you like Office or perhaps Outlook. I just don’t to use Outlook although I have it installed and ready to use, but instead use Mail which comes with Mac OS already.
I hope to make some sense here. -
The very best thing about the retina display
Do you know what is the best thing about the retina display? the answer is they've solved the issue of the dead and stuck pixels thing you know how because the pixels are very very small so u can't see if it's working or not some day you will walking around holding your new ipad and you don't even know the plenty pixels that are dead and you can't notice them HAHAHA that was a good one LOVE YA APPLE.
I doubt that's the reason Apple spent the money on retina displays, but a good observation.

After installing the new Lion OSX, I get "power PC applications no longer supported" on things. How to fix?
Silly rabbit wrote:
Ah, you didn't read the fine print on installing Lion, did you? None of your old software will run in Lion.
You have two choices:
A) Buy all new or updated software
B) Partition the hard drive and install an older version of OSX to run your older apps.
You did not give us any idea of what PowerPC apps you were running, so additional options:
C) Restore to Snow Leopard
D) Install Snow Leopard (and Rosetta which runs PowerPC apps) in Parallels 7 in Lion:

Whats the strangest thing about the Java platform?
Hello All,
In an interview (http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Interviews/bloch_effective_08_qa.html) that I did with Joshua Bloch on java.sun.com, promoting the revised version of “Effective Java”, he discusses generics, enums, annotations, the under-use of Java libraries, the importance of minimizing the accessibility of classes and members and minimizing mutability, and other matters.
To my question: “What’s the strangest thing about the Java platform?” his answer was: “I'm going to say that the strangest thing about the Java platform is that the byte type is signed. I've never heard an explanation for this. It's quite counterintuitive and causes all sorts of errors.”
