I upgraded to snow leopard 10.6.3 yesterday and now aperture 3.1 wont open??

I upgraded my OS on my macbook to Snow Leopard 10.6.3 yesterday and now Aperture 3 will not open, error message "aperture cannot be opened because of a probelm"
Any suggestions?

Update your MacOS to 10.6.4 to be able to run Aperture with SnowLeopard; if you are using Snow Leopard, your computer must be Mac OS X v10.6.4 or later to use Aperture 3.1, see: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3485

I upgraded my 4s to 5.0.1 yesterday and now my contact names wont show up.

I upgraded to yesterday and then my class/texts started coming in without the contact name. I went through and added +1 to every contact and they are still coming in without contact names.

Some users are saying the following will solve it. Apparently it just affects Verizon phones who did OTA update. So if you are Verizon see below link and text for the resolution. Disclaimer: I have had no issues with the 4s other than the battery drain which was resolved with 5.0.1 OTA update (with Verizion) so cant verify this fix from experience:

Update: Here is a partial fix
This method fixed my incoming calls but not incoming text messages. Your milage may vary.
via TSF reader James Foster
1) Open the Phone and dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
2) When the system answer press 1 for “Program or activate your phone”
3) Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating something like, “Settings updated.”
4) Open the Task Manager (double click the home button) and kill the Phone, Message, and Contacts Applications
5) Wait a few minutes (I waited 3 just to be extra safe)
6) Open the Message App to verify the fix.
If you are still broken, kill the Message App again, then reboot your phone.

HT6065 I upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mavericks OS X, and lost all of my "on my mac" mail boxes. How do I restore them?

I upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mavericks OS X, and lost all of my "on my mac" mail boxes. How do I restore them?

The answer was more complicated. I had to have an Apple Care tech help me onscreen. Had to go to Time Machine to restore (which I had tried, but couldn't find the right files to import. The Mail icon was barred). They helped me find them. It was very complicated, with many steps involved. I never could have figured it out on my own. Even the tech was not sure how, or if it would work. And it took about 1/2 hour for the stuff to download. But, the problem was solved eventually
. Thanks again for your help!

I have a first generation MacBook Air that has been refurbished via the Apple store. I installed Snow Leopard about a year ago and now, my computer wont update! It will download the updates restart my computer, but then I get an error message!

What is a error message and what do you see when it appears?
Haven't much problem with Airs around here, since they have a SSD they tend to be more reliable.
Perhaps it was a bad update, have you ran through this list of possible fixes?
Do as many as possible, starting with #1. Until the problem is resolved.
Use the boot 10.6 USB instead of the disk of course.

Computer locks up, so I want to reinstall the OS. I had upgraded to Snow Leopard.
Tried to do an archive and install from the DVD that came with the computer, but that failed.
Tried to do an erase and install, but the install stops somewhere near the end, 13 minutes to go. Tried several times, same result.
Can't reboot from the install disk, it just ejects the disk and I get the flashing question mark.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I think my hard drive is toast. When I boot in single user mode, I get the following text:
CSRHID Transition Driver: start booting in single user... will wait for window server
Then the following text appears, repeating itself over and over, except that the numbers (indicated by "xxxxxxx")
SAM Multimedia: READ or WRITE failed, SENSE_KEY = 0x03, ASC = 0x02, ASCQ = 0x00
SAM Multimedia: READ or WRITE failed, SENSE_KEY = 0x03, ASC = 0x02, ASCQ = 0x00

These messages keep repeating with the numbers (xxxxxxxxx) changing with each iteration.
Does this indicate a bad hard drive?

I have upgraded to snow leopard 10.6.3 version and it will not open mail it says i cant use this version of mail 3.6

I have upgraded to mac os x snow leopard but it doesent let me open mail it says i have mail 3.6 so i tried to download a larer version of mail and i havent got space.

While the minimum free space some quote of 4GB or 10% in actual practice you want more like 10-15GB minimum and that doesn't mean it will perform as it should, only that it may be able to function at all. 20% free space, but none of that means that your free space is large enough, or that the pieces of free space may be so small as to still not allow writes.
The worst is when it is no longer possible to update the index to the drive directory of where files and fragments are located.
Last, good idea when moving to a new OS, to backup/clone your drive, erase and install, then use Setup Assistant, as in going from 10.5 to 10.6. It may seem like you or others can "get away" with avoiding formatting a drive. In practice, you want to be safe rather than sorry. And the only time to insure the partitions are aligned and healthy and no bad sectors, especially those contained by the OS that are hidden.

I installed snow leopard on my mac mini and now it takes roughly 10 minutes to boot

I have a mac mini 1.5ghz with 1gb of ram installed.
I was running leopard with the combo update (10.5.8) but decided to install snow leopard as some of my apps need 10.6.8 to run.
The mac now boots past the grey screen with the apple logo then goes to a blue screen where i can move my mouse but nothing else.
This lasts for roughly 10-11 mins and then finally goes to my desktop and sure enough everything works perfectly and fast too.
It used to boot in around 30 seconds when i had leopard installed. If it can not be fixed i will be happy going back to leopard but i dont want to lose anything when i install it.
Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks

Mac OS X 10.6: If you see a blue screen at startup .
You may need to reinstall Snow Leopard:
Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
Do the following:
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed with reinstalling OS X. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

Does upgrading to Snow Leopard change the way CDs and DVDs are burned?

Does SL make better space usage of CDs and DVDs, or is it the same as Leopard?
Does it burn files to CD/DVD using the same file formats? Does it do anything new?
Thanks - Jess

CDs and DVDs use a standardized format. If they did not you could not play a CD or DVD in your Mac that would play in your CD player in your car or your DVD player in your living room.
Or maybe I don't understand your question??

My macbook pro running snow leopard updated a while ago, and now the low battery warning just pops up every 10 seconds even after I click ok, unless I plug it in. HELP!

Does anyone else have an issue of their macbook over warning? I like getting a warning when I'm at like 15%, 10% 5% and 1%. But the warning shouldnt be coming back the second after I click ok. It is extremely annoying!

Since upgrading to Snow Leopard Problems when editing picture in Photoshop CS4 - not switching to dedicated space

Hi,
I'd appreciate your help on this, maybe I just chose a stupid set-up to begin with.
I use spaces and have allocated Space 1 to Lightroom and Space 2 to Photoshop to always have a clear backdrop when switching to Photoshop.
Since upgrading to Snow Leopard, when I choose 'Edit photo in Photoshop', Photoshop (the frame) opens fine in it's correct space, but the picture does not show. When I click on Window and on the respective picture window the picture shows but all reverts to Space 1 and I have the Lightroom window in the background so that I need to extend the Photoshop window to create a less distracting background.
Any idea why this happens or any suggestions for a better set up?
Thanks heaps
Claudia

Claudia
I am running PS CS4 as an external editor for my Lightroom 2.5 installation on a MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.1 and I have exactly the same 'Spaces' setup as you (i.e. LR and PS each are in their own space) but I am not experiencing the behaviour you are experiencing.
If it's of any help, you might try fiddling with the window behaviour in PS to see if it changes anything? In the "Window" menu I have selected the "Application Bar" rather than the "Application Frame".

Upgraded to Snow Leopard and now CS2 wont launch

I've just installed Mav OS X Snow Leopard on my ancient MacBook and now my very old photoshop CS2 wont launch - it was working fine before I upgraded my operating system. Help!

Photoshop cs2 requires Rosetta on snow leopard.
You can install rosetta from your 10.6 install dvd

Mail is different after upgrading to snow leopard

I upgraded to Snow Leopard a few days ago and I had to set up my email accounts from scratch when I re-started my computer - is this normal?
Also, before I upgraded, I had my 3 email addresses under the "Inbox" tab, then Drafts etc. I still have that after the upgrade but I also have a new MobileMe tab, underneath "ON MY MAC" which expands to "Deleted Message" and "Sent Messages" folder but these don't mirror the Sent and Trash folders above. Can anyone explain the new MobileMe tab?
Thx for your help.

You didn't say anything about your email configuration, but I installed SL on three Macs and I didn't have to set up my email accounts on either of them again. I don't have a MobileMe tab on either computer. The "ON MY MAC" tab does show up on all three of my Macs.
Bottom line though is simple. If your email accounts are working, then there's nothing to worry about.

Boot time for early 2008 MacBook Pro longer after upgrade to Snow Leopard

Hi all,
I upgraded to Snow Leopard about 2 months ago and have found my boot times longer ever since - by about 5-10 seconds. Any idea what could be causing this?
btw all patches to SL have been applied including the most recent OS update, 10.6.4.
Thanks!

Thanks. Now I could back it up. It even booted. But now I have a new problem. The new hard drive is reallz faster than the old one. But Evers now and then the system just freezes. Not like when it was overworked before with the old system. No it completely freezes. You can just move the mouse then. But you can move windows, can't click on anything. This lasts about 30 seconds, then everything is normal. Is there a size maximum for a internal hard drive or cache max or a speed max. It makes go crazy.
But never the less. You first hit helped. Maybe you have another one.

Idiots guide to clean install upgrade to Snow leopard to get lion

Hi- am a total novice and have had my Imac 9,1 (2.93 Ghz Duo core processor with 4GB RAM) for a couple of years and now I am on MAC OS 10.5.8 Leopard and really want to get ready for Lion when it comes. My Imac has an external hard drive (250GB) and a time machine, airport for itunes for music streaming, some Microsoft office suite. I bought the Snow Leopard 10.6.3 yesterday and want to clean install without losing all my docs and settings for all iphones/ipods etc. Anyone got an idea where I can find an idiot proof guide to doing this? I guess I will need to do this all again once Lion is available
Help much appreciated...

first of all, make a backup of your boot drive by cloning it to an external HD using e.g. Carbon Copy Cloner.
then simply pop in the install DVD and click on continue. the SL installer will upgrade OS X and leave everything untouched (unless it's incompatible) - it's that simple.
in case something does go wrong, you have your clone.

Upgraded to snow leopard, now safari scrolls a page down when space bar is hit and sometimes crashes. Any ideas for a fix?

I just upgraded to the new snow leopard, now my Safari is acting loopy. At times, the page will scroll down when I hit the space bar. As I type this discussion the screen isn't paging down, but if I go to the tab where I have facebook loaded and hit the space bar, it acts as a page down key. I've had safari crash about 5 times tonight for no apparent reason. The delete key sometimes will act as a page back key. I really have no idea whats going on.
I've had keyboards go wacko on me before due to something being spilled on them or a wireless problem, but this keyboard is a wired keyboard and nothing was spilled on it. It's rather new and I'm quite certain it's not a keyboard issue.
No settings have been changed on the computer. The only thing different today from yesterday, is the fact that I upgraded to snow leopard.
Help would be pretty sweet.
Thanks,
Jason
