Purchased Lion, installed it - once I log in - i get the curtain and message to hold the power button till it shuts down. Worked with the disk repair utility - fixed permissions - still can't get past the "black curtain of death" any suggestions?

My machine was patched to date 10.x.x. I was lucky to get an internet connection and I selected the option to re-download Lion... its curruently being downloaded. What if that doesn't work?
Any thougths would be appreciated.

And you have a workstation? not a notebook.
Usually a driver or hardware, nothing that Disk utility will fix.
You know of course what a Prohititory Sign is?

Safari browser seems to slow down when working with my wifi ASUS AC 68U router

safari browser seems to slow down when working with my wifi ASUS AC 68U router - any ideas on why?

Is your problem with Safari on the iPad, or some MacBook Air?
Are you sure that the ASUS firmware is tested with the device having trouble and its operating system?
Note: MacBook Airs do not run iOS. They run Mac OS X, Windows or Linux.

Ipad shuts down when i load safari

My Ipad shuts downs tha minute a seach anything using safari?

Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (Clear Cache on iOS 4) and also Clear History
Then close Safari completely and do a reset and see if that helps. To close Safari : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
To do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My ipad shuts down when downloading

My ipad shuts down several times a day, perhaps, if I go on facebook and want to see older posts, it shows loading but them it never loads and shuts off the page, how can I fix it? It's been going on for way too long now and I'm sick of it!!

LilPeachPie:
I have two iPad 2s and they both were almost unusable after upgrading to iOS 8. Upgrading to iOS 8.1 did not help either. I did a full erase and restore through iTunes but that did not resolve the problems.
After a rather long visit to the local Genius Bar and some evaluation of the error messages within the diagnostic section of the OS, it was determined that there was either an app or some data that became corrupted and was causing all of the issues. Their suggestion was to do a full reset of the iPad through iTunes but this time, set it up as a new unit, and then reinstall the apps I wanted directly from the app store.
I have now done that on both iPads and both are back to running smoothly. While they are a little slower than prior OS versions we need to remember that we are using the lowest powered hardware that is supported by the OS. But they are definitely usable. As an added bonus, there were a lot of apps I never used and decided not to reinstall at this time so I have gained a lot of extra space on the iPads.
I would suggest doing the restore and see how it works. Hope this helps.
Regards,
David

TS3274 My iPad shuts down on various games, apps and sometimes it also freezes up on me and not sure why can anyone help me?

My iPad shuts down on various apps and games and sometimes it also freezes up on various apps and games. I was wanting to know if anyone else has had the issue and if u got it fixed maybe could tell me how to fix mine.
Thank you

Try this.
Close all apps completely and reboot the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Ipad shuts down when syncing

This is a new problem I'm having. Whenever I connect my Ipad to my pc and start i tunes, it works for a minute or two, until I start syncing something, and then the ipad shuts down and the apple icon appears. Then I have to reboot the ipad to get it back to work again. So basically I can't upload or download anything from itunes. What's wrong here?? is it itunes? my pc? or did something in my ipad went broke?? help!

If this is a new problem, go through any new photos you may have saved on the iPad and remove them. I had this same problem and I combed the interwebs for a solution, I tried it, and it works.
The iPad is a bit picky on what image formats it supports and supports well. Some cause it to crash for seemingly no reason. Corrupt files can also lead to the same result.
Good luck!

Ipad shuts down when battery is at 20%, since updating to 7.0.4

I've read a few posts about battery issues and I've tried everything from battery saving tips, to resets, to restoring my ipad. Nothing is working. My sister also has an ipad 2 and has exactly the same issue except hers shuts down at 35-45%. This is only since updating to iOS 7, possibly only since iOS 7.0.4.
Can anyone help? Apple? Why can't we roll back a version any more?
My ipad is out of warranty and I don't want to pay for a new battery when it seems to me to be a software issue...
All replies appreciated.

Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

InDesign shuts down when dealing with Arabic

The program shuts down after approximatelly 30 seconds as soon as I start playing with the font - changing to Simplified Arabic etc.
The same problem occurs on two seperate computers, where CS was installed - work computer where I'm using a purchased version and home computer where I have a trial version installed.
I didn't seem to have this problem until I downloaded a script for RTL.
Now I have donwloaded the Arabic version of CS6 with an in-build RTL option and the problem is still present.
English materials work fine.

Um. This post is full of guesses.
I am going to guess that under Edit -> Preferences -> Clipboard Handling you have "All Information" instead of "Text Only." Is my guess correct? Because copy/pasting RTL stuff from Excel has been problematic for me in the past when Excel's native styling made it into InDesign.
I would furthermore guess that:
1) it worked before because the RTL text flow was turned on in Word, and that info carried across on the clipboard, but
2) now when you try to turn on RTL text flow in InDesign it's freaking out on "Left to Right" versus "Default direction" properties
So my final guess would be that a change in workflow will end the crashes. It's a long shot, but I would suggest that you either
1) Only File -> Place documents, never copy/paste
or
2) Change the Clipboard Handling settings to Text Only, and continute using your copy/paste workflow. But the text will always flow in the wrong direction until you apply one of the RTL paragraph direction scripts.
I'd strongly sugggest that you abandon the habit of copy/pasting complex-script text. It's a disaster, really. Most of my complex-script workflows tend towards trying to strip as much Word garbage off of text as I possibly can, all the way down to raw Unicode text when I can do so, and then placing those stripped-down files into Word.
When I can't do that (when I need to preserve some parts of Word formatting), one trick that I've used in the past is to have character styles called "Overt LTR" and "Overt RTL" in Word when I needed English words in the middle of Arabic paragraphs, and vice versa. This is necessary because InDesign has a setting that I don't think Word has: "Default Direction." So in a mixed paragraph, it will try to apply LTR to Latin script and RTL to Arabic script. This causes problems of all kinds, especially when you have mixed numerals (e.g. phone numbers in Arabic numerals, but all other numbers in Hindi numerals).
But since Word and InDesign handle complex and RTL scripts quite differently, there will always be some pre-InDesign hygiene necessary, and some significant cleanup within InDesign once the text is in.

New iPads speaker doesn't work with apps

All the apps I try (with the exeption of apps made by apple, such as music) don't work with the speaker, but do with the mic. How can I fix this? I only hear static when I play games like battle bears.

Try connecting your iPad to your computer and set up your iPad on iTunes. iTunes will run a few steps, and some problems should be fixed. I did this, and my notification centre displayed notifications, which before the connection didn't show.

2011 MacBook Pro shuts down while working with blu ray disks

I am trying to backup my blu ray disks to digital formats in the event that a disk is damaged. I am using an early 2011 MacBook Pro with OSX 10.8.5 with a Samsung SE-506 external blu ray writer. I have been using handbrake to rip DVD's, but downloaded Make MKV to handle blu rays. I successfully ripped one blu ray disk last night. Once before that, and four times after, the computer shut down after failing to read the disk. When it restarts, a gray screen reports that the computer experienced and error and had to shut down. I believe this has something to do with the fact that OSX does not natively support blu ray disks. The disk drive is plugged into one of two USB slots in the computer. The other slot has a USB hub with two external hard drives and some other devices connected to it.
So far, the computer has failed to recognize the disk, and nothing comes up in Make MKV. The last time I tried, the computer recognized the disk, Make MKV read it and showed the titles. When I tried to rip the disk, the process failed. After another attempt, the computer shut down. This has never happened while using the original disk drive, or while using DVD's in the external drive.
I spoke with Samsung support, and they have no record of this being a problem. So, where do I go from here? I have quite a few disks to rip, so I am hoping this issue can be resolved. I have searched around, but cannot find any information on this problem happening to someone else.

Shuts down when held with one hand or tilted

My Macbook Pro recently started shutting down if it was tilted on my lap or if I grabbed it with one hand in the middle left hand side. It is very weird and any explanations as to why this is happening would be appreciated.

I know it's always like that .. how about trying to nail the scenario well so you can demonstrate there ?maybe catching it on video ???
