I have a macbook and I just upgraded to Lion upgraded my iTunes software also setup a gmail acct in addition to my aol acct...just checked diagnostics and the connection doctor says I'm connected with server for both mail systems, but I'm not getting mail

I have a macbook and I just upgraded to Lion, downloaded the new software for Itunes and added a gmail account in addition to my existing aol account. Altho both mail systems are visible in my mail account I'm no longer receiving emails from either account. I checked the mail doctor and both accounts are connected to the server, but I can't figure out why I'm not receiving emails any longer. I'm trying to clean-up my stuff before I add my new Iphone, but I must admit all of this is rather daunting. Also does anyone know when tech support is available? it must be PST cause no one is there at 8AM EST!

Hello,
It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
Reset the Firewire bus
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.

I am on an iMac6,1 and on OS 10.5.8 and I want to upgrade the OS. Can I load Lion on my machine, and how do I go about doing it.. I have everything backed up.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

How, or can, I run Lion on this machine WQ737216Z5W

How, or can, I run Lion on this machine WQ737216Z5W

Your MacBook is a model 2,1 Mid 2007. It can run 10.7 Lion but not 10.8 Mountain Lion.
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook/specs/macbook-core-2-duo-2.16-whit e-13-mid-2007-specs.html
You will want to up your RAM to the maximum. You can put two 2gb RAM sticks in your model 2,1 but it can only use 3,3gb. This is a hardware limitation and cannot be changed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3_GB_barrier
http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/faq/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-3-g b-memory-limitation-details.html
OWC tests have found that there is a slight speed increase with having two 2gb sticks in rather than one 1gb and one 2gb. Your model is in the gray lines at the bottom of the graph. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/Memory_Benchmark/Apple_MacBook/
Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly. As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.7 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
Before Mac switched to Intel processors they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

Why does multi-machine rendering work so poorly?

more specifically, watch folder rendering with multi-machines is pointless because skipping a frame seeming to take as long as rendering the frame, so one machine can never catch up to the other. why does skipping a frame take some long? i mean it's been in the software for like 10 years. is this not considered important?

These two features are not intended to be used together.
Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously multiprocessing is intended to turn a single computer into a self-contained render farm of sorts. Multi-machine rendering is intended to use multiple computers in a render farm. Attempting to use these two items together is mixing two different organizational schemes for managing the rendering of frames.

Users have reported that Quicken 2015 for Mac is an upgrade of the generally loathed Quicken Essentials for Mac.
I recommend you continue your Quicken operating experience by purchasing Quicken 2007 for Mac directly from Intuit for $15. It will open your Quicken 2006 file and operate as you have before.
To obtain Quicken 2007 for Mac for $15:

Reverting to SL form Lion, looking for backup software

I am reverting back to Snow Leopard from Lion. Which backup software is the best before I reformat?

I did what you are planning to do.
First I booted up from the Snow Leopard DVD and then using Disk Utility I erased my HD. Then I used Restore in Disk Utility as suggested above and selected my Time Machine drive to restore from. Make sure you select a date when you did a SL backup.
It took awhile but everything worked as before.
Good Luck

Adding redirect path and pattern in Lion server for configuring software update server

Adding redirect path and pattern in Lion server for configuring software update server.Any changes

Ok, after days of browsing on the forum I found the following hint on another discussion related to AFP access:
"This may be a service ACL issue.
It turns out one of the latest Apple updates turned on Service ACL's which caused AFP connections to be blocked. Once I fixed the Service ACL in Server Admin... all connections and Single Sign On worked."
Well, after allowing access to all services to all users with Server Admin, we were finally able to log in the server with our admin account...
So, there must have been an update that turned on ACL's which caused even our local access, probably for OD/Kerberos, on the server to be restricted.

Adobe After Effects CC 2014 Multi-machine rendering does not create RCF after Collect-File

This was working in the previous release. After going through all of the steps to perform a multi-machine render, not only does it say it is limiting it to 5 machines instead of the usual 99 (and I have over 100 cores on the render farm) but "Collect Files" (File/Dependencies/Collect Files) does not create the Render Control File (RCF) that kicks off the process on the other machines, like it did before and is supposed to do.
This release was supposed to fix the 32 core limitation on render nodes (my server has 48), but now does nothing at all.
Anyway, I assume there is a check box somewhere that says "do something" that hasn't been checked and another that says "Maybe my machine has more than 5 cores", and I would appreciate being steered in the direction of these new mis-features.
Just as background, the 48 core server does show the little TV screen that monitors the watch folder, and I know for a fact that process looks for the "RCF" file. Looking at the directory specified for "collect files", I can see that no RCF file is created, only 1 file, a report.txt file which contains this information is produced:

The dialog box has been slightly refactored. You must click "Allow watch folder rendering" and then all is good. Hope this helps anyone else. Thanks to Rafil at customer support chat for this.

Can not remove or install itunes because hkey-local-machine\software\classes\.m3u\openwithlist\itunes.exe no permission

itunes will not install or uninstall because hkey-local-machine\software\classes\.m3u\openwithlist\itunes.exe no permission. I can edit and delete every other regedit but not this key

I found this solution on the Apple Support Forums. Adding the SYSTEM account is what worked for me:
+Let's check your permissions on the key.+
+In your "Start Search" box, type run and click on the Run that comes up. In your run, type regedit and hit enter.+
+In regedit:+
+Expand HKEYLOCALMACHINE+
+Expand SOFTWARE+
+Expand CLASSES+
+Right-click on pcast and select "Permissions".+
+Select your user account name. Do you have full control of the key? If so, also select SYSTEM. Does the SYSTEM account have full control of the key?+

Recover OSX Mountain Lion using Time Machine Backup

Hi,
Can anyone help me to recover OSX Mountain Lion using TIme Machine backup as i accidently corrupted the recovery HD and the Macintosh Drive?
Regards,
Sanil

As Linc stated, you can boot from your Time Machine backup of OS X Mountain Lion.
Restart your machine and hold down the Option key. Select the Time Machine backup drive to boot from. When it boots into the TM drive you will get the same OS X Utilities screen like in the recovery HD. You can use Disk Utilities to erase your Macintosh HD then restore your Mac OS X from Time Machine.

Mountain Lion creates Time Machine problem

Hello,
Since upgrading to Mountain Lion whenever Time Machine attempts to backup to my Time Capsule I get this error message:
"The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/(user)'s Mac Book Pro 2.sparsebundle” is already in use."
The Time Capsule firmware was updated a couple of weeks ago to supposedly make it ML compatible.
Anyone KNOW how to fix this or is it a bug?
James

You will not lose any of your backups. You just need to disconnect the drive and reconnect it.
Open time Machine preferences and click on Select Disk. Select the disk that you use as it should be listed at the top of the window. Click Remove Disk. this will remove the disk that you are currently set to use for backups, but leave all the data on the drive. You can then click on select disk again and select the volume that you want to send your backups to and it should then run correctly.

After Effects multi machine render frames have different settings.

I am using AE multi machine render settings over a network drive with 2 machines. Comp includes elements from Video Copilot plugins. The ambient occlusion settings appear to differ despite the same AE project being open on both machines. Certain elements in the comp are rending with slightly different settings for each machine, creating a flicker effect when played back at the intended video fps. Both machines have all the necessary elements installed locally to complete an exact identical render. What am I doing wrong?

Well, have you actually tested it? E3D will e.g. truncate the number of samples to the highest possible value internally, but still allow you to overcrank sliders. This sounds like exactly that - you may have set 32 samples or whatever, but internally only 16 or 8 are used. You can only find that out by actually interactively opening the project and changing those values.
