Install multiple copies of OS 10.7 Lion

I purchased OS 10.7 Lion from the App Store and installed it on a Mac Mini. I have 3 other MacBooks that I want to install it on. The first download left no tracable install file. How does a person install multiple copies of Lion ?

IF you use the same Apple ID & password on all of your Macs go to the Apps Store & click on Purchased & it will recognize that you have purchased it so you can download it again. At least that is what I did last night. I loaded it onto my MacBook Pro first & then my iMac.

  • Installing multiple copies of the SAME service on a BOX

    This is a "Best Practice" question for BOE-XI (3.x).
    I have dug through the 3.1 DEPLOYMENT training, Admin and Pattern documents, but none of them clearly discuss anything around installing multiple copies of the SAME service (eg. CMS, ReportJob) on the same physical server if it has more that 1 CPU.
    The documents detail the "per CPU" limits of a service, but don't detail if we should install multiple services to take advantage of the multiple CPUs available on a specific Physical Server.
    For example - the Crystal Report Job Server can support five (5) simultaneous report jobs per CPU by default.
    If we have a 2 CPU machine, do we run one (1) CRJS service - but increase the "Maximum Jobs Allowed" setting to Ten (10), or do we install two (2) CRJS services each with a default limit of Five (5)...?
    Does this rule apply to all services including the One (1) CPU for One-Hundred (100) simultaneous requests sizing-limit on the CMS..? That doesn't appear to be a setting we can control within the CMC.
    Can you run more than one CMS service on a specific Physical Server...?
    Thanks in advance for the advice.

    I personally have run 20 jobs per Crystal Job server and most were dual processor dual core.  I had over 1000 jobs a night, but not all at 1am...although most were within 2 hours of the same time.
    I was able to get through them.  However, I had 4 Crystal Job servers.  Its all about your hardware being taxed.
    I broke off my CMS away from the processing tier.  So I could have multiple Crystal Job servers.
    We had 3 processing tier servers all doing Crystal Jobs and Webi jobs.  I had 60 running at one time for Crystal. 20 per job server.
    i could have added the Crystal job servers to the same server, but the hardware was getting busy.
    I would have at least 2 CMS's as they support 500 concurrent users (Sessions?) each.
    This helped us - and we had over 8k reports in our repository.  We were getting bound by memory constraints.
    Once you get to 64 bit OS and App, (BO XI 4.0 sometime in 2010) it will help with this problem.
    The only other way in the 32 bit environment is to add servers, even VM's if you have to as long as they are different hosts, but that adds expensive BOE CPU licenses - the big caveat to that.
    That's how we solved the problem...

  • Installing multiple copies of one printer (HP1102W) on the same computer

    OK here is the setup, we have an activity that needs, useing multiple computers, to support 2 different locations with the same physical printer, in this case the HP1102w.
    Our computers are running Window 7.
    We will move the printer between the locations for use on different days of the week and want to avoid reinstalling the print driver each time we change sites.
    Each site has its own wireless network with the same basic wireless network setup (ip address etc , open network). Fortunately the same IP subnet 192.168.1.0 but with different SSIDs.
    We have setup the printer at both locations but we have to make configuration changes to the setup to support the different SSIDs which is a pain that is subject to errors.
    What I am thinking of doing is to install the printer at each location using the smart install. This will create two different instances of the printer on each machine.  Is this possible or will they get in each others way?
    Can I do this and then just change which printer is the default machine at that site? 
    Will this work???
    If not what alternatives do I  have.
    Thanks
    Marty K

    I think theoretically that will work.  You will just have to reconnect the printer to the router each time.

  • Do I have to purchase multiple copies of OSX Lion one for each mac

    As OSX Lion is only available as a download, do I have to purchase multiple copies of OSX Lion one for the laptop & one for the desktop?

    No, you can use the same copy on your Macs.  Log into the App Store using the Same AppleID.  It will be in the puchased section.  If you're on Snow Leopard, just click install.

  • Multiple copies in Aperture Photo Stream

    I use one photostream for two iPhone 4Ss, an iPad 2, Apple TV, and on two MacBooks (both running Lion, one using Aperture 3 and one using iPhoto '11).
    I have Aperture running on my Late 2009 13" Unibody MacBook Pro automatically import photostream photos taken on my iPhones into the usual "month year Photo Stream" folders.
    Here is my issue: when I click on the Photo Stream "Library" on the in Aperture, I find MULTIPLE copies of each photo.  The older the photo in photo stream, the more copies (my oldest photo from almost 5 months ago has almost 80 copies!).  The most recent photos only have a single copy with number of copies increasing as the photos get older.  The first most recent duplicate is from 2 weeks ago with 2 copies.  This applies to both photos taken on my iDevices directly to the stream and also photos uploaded to the stream from a DSLR via Aperture.  I'm concerned that having 80 copies of older photos (already copied to another folder in my Aperture library) will take up unnecessary space in my Aperture library.  I am also afraid to delete any of the copies for fear that they will be removed from the photo stream of any of my multiple devices (some still displaying photos older than 30 days, eg. Apple TV).
    Any idea why this is occurring?  Any thoughts on preventing it?

    I'm having the same problem.  I deleted all the photos in the photostream then tried to drag a couple new ones in to see if they'd synch.  Nothing is happening.  I recently installed aperture (have about 125 gb in the library).  If anyone has an idea what to do, i'm open to try something.

  • I have windows 7 installed under bootcamp. Will updating to Lion affect it?

    As the topic says ^^

    Shouldn't have a problem, but when you download the Lion installer, don't install it right away.
    Click on the icon in the Dock and "Show in Finder" then right click on that and "show package contents"
    Read here to copy the dmg installer, make multiple copies and burn disks in Disk Utility, you can then hold c and reboot off the installer disk and use disk utility and install Lion, it's faster than a internet download install from the Recovery partition that needs your id and all that to be current.

  • Receiving multiple copies of text messages

    i have an iPhone 6 plus and have been receiving multiple copies of the same text message (up to 4x) from various contacts across various carriers. This has been an issue throughout having an iPhone 5s and 6 plus, and only occurs with regular messages, not iMessage. It also does not occur for automated text messages sent to me (e.g. Redbox). While I have unlimited messages it is frustrating because they are sent to me multiple times, and not necessarily in the same order each time. It is also inconsistent. I might get a single copy of one text and four of another. I have reset the phone, changed phones, and every other thing possible. This seems to be an issue not on my end. Assistance would be much appreciate.  Thanks.

  • Multiple Copies of iTunes.MSI file

    I am in the process of cleaning up my older Sony Vaio system disk (XP Home), and noted I have multiple copies of iTunes.msi and Quick Time.msi files in a subdirectory entitled *'downloaded installations'*. Some dates go back to 2005. Is it advisable to delete older versions or are all versions/dates necessary to remain on the system? I also noted many ipod updater files from 2006. Are these necessary along with *restore.jpsw files to be kept? I'm hoping there is a concise file listing of whats really necessary to keep vs. install or update leftover files. Most of these are 35Meg+ so I have a lot of disk space being used right now for these older files.
    Thanks in advance...............

    I never noticed theose before! I had several. I got rid of them all after a quick google convinced me I'll never need them again.

  • Running multiple copies of an App on one NetWeaver server

    Hi there,    (V12 with ERP/ECC transactions)
    We are setting up our landscapes/environments for development, beta testing, final QA and production.  I am wondering if we can combine development and beta testing on the same system. 
    The obvious concern is that they will have copies of the "same" transactions.  If we don't do anything special, the data source name is hard coded in the transaction and as we are on the same MII server, they can't point to different data sources unless we edit the transactions.  Is there a way to have a transaction use a configuration of some sort to dynamically specify the actual data source?
    Are there any other issues attempting to do this?
    Thanks,
    --Amy Smith
    --Haworth

    Thanks Jeremy,
    Thanks for the suggestion Jeremy. 
    Our server is not capable of another instance.  It is not easy to get our SAP Basis people to install and configure a new system and we are not allowed to do it ourselves.  I was trying to find a way to use our existing instance of NetWeaver/MII to run multiple copies of the application.  In J2EE apps I have worked on, it is as simple as copying the software, changing the URL, changing the application config files for the data source and deploying the new duplicate app under a different name.
    Seems that in MII the transaction "hard" links the data source name to the data source definition and that link is not dynamically configurable.  Would that be a fair statement?
    Thanks again,

  • I use a PC for work and link it to Office 365. I also have an iphone and ipad. How do I synchronise these devices to Outlook without creating multiple copies of calendars?

    I use my PC for work (MS Office and Outlook). I also use Office 365. I also have an iPhone and iPad. I'm having difficulty getting Outlook to synchronise with Apple devices. I keep getting multiple copies of calendars and not being able to see contacts. Is there a process anywhere which describes the best way to manage these devices together? Or should I just give up on the PC and buy a MacBook or Air.

    Excellent. These guides got me as far as installing my preferred language pack, which gets added to the add-ons automatically (assuming the user says yes to the appearing question when Firefox is started).
    However, the GUI does not change unless the user enters "about:config" and changes the locale.
    Is there a way to do this from the command line? I mean, changing the locale settings.
    And preferrably for all users. So even when new users get added and they start Firefox the first time, they see it appearing with the preferred locale and not in English.

  • Multiple copies of the same printer showing up in the print pull down menu...

    Hi... I just recently installed an Epson XP-410 wireless printer so that we could print from our iPads and iPhones.  I don't know if this is the correct forum to ask the question(s) in or not, but here goes...
    1. There are multiple copies of the printer showing up in the drop down print menu when I go to select the printer.  How do I know which is the correct printer to choose, or does it matter?
    2. Can I get rid of the un-needed multiples?  If so, how?
    3. Also, I have been having an issue with printing to it when I switch between programs.  When I tried printing to it from a simple text editor, it came up and said that there was a communications issue.  I used to have a Brother network printer connected via Ethernet, and had no issues printing from any of my computers, but I couldn't print from the iPad with the Brother.  So, we bought the Epson.  Anyway, I had to restart the computer to re-establish the link between my computer and the printer.  Didn't think I should have to do this since it is a network (wireless) printer.  Any thoughts on that?
    For a little more information, our main computer is an iMac (20-inch) running OS 10.7.
    Thank you,
    Jim

    Have you tried to force quit iBooks?
    Double tap the home button. You'll see the app icons adn a preview show up on the screen. Scroll sideways if needed to get the preview and icon for iBooks on the screen. Flick the preview window up and off the screen. Then single tap on the home page preview, or on the home button to exit the mode then try to open iBooks again

  • Laserjet 5000 with windows 7 driver cannot print multiple copies unless disabling mopier

    Customer has Laserjet 5000 that they have been using for approx 5 years. It is connected to one computer with the standard parallel cable and the driver is using lpt1. It is used mainly to print word documents and a multi page publisher document. The computer used to be a windows xp computer and all  worked  well with the PCL6 driver and that is the only driver that was used
     They just bought a new Windows 7 32 bit computer and now it has lost some of the functionality.
    The first driver that was loaded was the driver that Windows 7 used after you use the windows update button that you get during the add printer wizard. I think it was the pcl 5 driver as that is the driver that the computer will install if you remove the printer and then restart the computer. Using this driver, when you choose to print more than one page or multiple copies, it will just print the first page or copy and there will not be any errors displayed.
    I have since downloaded the PCL6 driver, PS driver and PCL5 driver from HP's website and tried all of them.
    The PS driver will print more than one page, but when it gets to about the 4th page the printer prints out an error page. The error is PCL XL error, Subsystem: Kernel, Error: Unsupported protocol, Operator 0x0, Position:0
    The PCl 6 driver will print the same error page and not print any print jobs, even if it is just a single page, single copy job.
    The pcl 5 driver prints one page and then stops printing, no errors.
    When I disable the mopier under device settings, the pcl5 driver will print everything just fine. Only problem is, it will not collate. The collate checkbox is available and checked when we try the multiple page multiple copy publisher document, but it just prints out as if we do not have collate checked. If we could get collation to work, than we are good to go.
    I have not tried the PS driver with the mopier disabled.
    The PCL6 driver stills returns the pcl xl error with the mopier disabled.
    The printer does not have any extra memory, just the 4 mb standard that came with the printer. I am wondering if this is a memory issue triggered by Windows 7and I just need to get more memory for the printer. (Computer has 4 gb of memory)
    Anybody else have a similar issue and got theirs fixed?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi jnickelsen,
    I understand the printer won't print multiple copies.
    Thank you for your reply.
    I will be happy to help you with this.
    This printer doesn't have the Mopier settings.
    What drivers are you using?
    Did you download the drivers or are you using the Windows preinstalled drivers?
    If you are using the Windows preinstalled drivers then I would download the latest drivers. Here is the URL for the HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
    I would download and run the Print and Scan Doctor since it might resolve the issue automatically.

  • HP Laserjet 1022nw printing multiple copies

    HELP!  Ever since I purchased my new laptop with Windows 7, my LaserJet has been going crazy.  I reinstalled new drivers and used the HP diagnostic tool and it says "all is working correctly".  However, when I print a document of any size (even if just one page), the printer keeps re-printing multiple copies until the paper runs out or I turn the printer off.  I have un-installed and reinstalled several times and the same issue keeps happening.  I posted on the forum and one other person related that he had the same issue, but to this date neither of us have been able to correct it.  I love my laser jet when it works, but have resorted to using my hp photosmart 7960 instead (higher cost of ink!).  And this sucks because sometimes I have 50-100 page documents that I need to print.  Laser is so much faster.  Thanks in advance for the expert advice I know you are going to give me and the solution that I KNOW that you must have.

  • Problem with 4250dtn printing multiple copies Windows 7 64 bit

    We can't print multiple copies from within some, but not all, applications to a Laserjet 4250dtn from Windows 7 64-bit workstaitons.  Windows 7 32-bit ones work fine.  The printer is served from a Server 2003 printer queue, but even when we print direclty to the port we only get one copy. Setting copy count from the printer dialog works fine, but we need to have the applications invoke multiple copies. We are using the UPD 64-bit driver;  could not find a legacy driver for this printer for Win 7 64 bit. I've tried various tricks found elsewhere on this forum, including turning off mopier mode, printing directly to the printer, disabling advanced features, etc. to no avail. Help, anyone! Thanks. Jerry TurnbowUSBO

    Thanks very much for the feedback. I was getting worried!
    The command window opens when I double-click on the Developer Day VM and I get a few lines that scroll off the window about loading Linux .... These lines never come back and I can't scroll in the command window.
    As soon as the above messages come into the command window the whole process stops. The window stays open but I get no response from it. I get no login prompt or anything.
    Do you think it could be a VirtualBox setup issue? I downloaded and installed the product along with the extension pack with no apparent problems and when I start VirtualBox I see the Developer Day VM listed in the left panel. All I do at that point is double-click it like the download web site said but I don't get the same results, i.e. no chance to login. It seems all I can do at that point is close the window by clicking the 'X' and it asks me 3 things about what to do with the VM and I usually say to shut it down. None of the other options look any better either.
    Any other suggestions are most welcome!!
    Thanks again!

  • Officejet Pro 8600 will not print multiple copies

    When I first set up my HP Officejet Pro 8600 I could print multiple copies.  Not sure when, how, or why but I can no longer print more than one copy of any document at a time regardless if it is one page or 100 pages.   I tried to update the drivers but the update failed as it said it could not uninstall the printer. When I did the error reporting it said there was no solution.
    My OS is Window XP Home
    The printer is connected via network.
    I print mainly from MS Word 2010 and Adobe PDF files and I have the same issue from either program.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Since the drivers and software refuses to update automatically, force it to. Uninstall all of the printer software and install it back using a fresh download. That will ensure that you have the latest driver and software for the printer installed and eliminate the need for updates for a while. I'll link them below. If that doesn't fix the problem with multiple documents not printing, try using an alternate driver for the printer. I'll link those instructions below. Let me know what happens.
