Is the new Mac OSX lion worth the upgrade?

I am on the brink of upgrading and I wanna know your insight in the new Software before I do.

Yes, I’ll probably do that. Read negative reviews from other sites and i wanna know if people here have the same probs.

  • Has Firefox been optimzied for the new Mac OSX Lion? I've been having issues using the browser since upgrading to Lion. Issues include using some websites as well as google e-mail...icons do not appear etc.

    when checking mail in google I am not able to 'star' an e-mail or mark it etc. I don't get the option to do that, as I did before upgrading to Mac Osx Lion

    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

    Against the Terms of Use to speculate on unreleased products.
    Historically:  If not a drop-in DVD found in the box when purchased, then there maybe a small window to receive the new OS of a few days.
    On the last OS that came out (Snow Leopard)  I don't remember  there ever being a "Free" however the Up-To-Date Program (US$9.95) for Macs,
    that is getting SL at the $9.95 price if  you "bought a recent machine and want to upgrade."
    The price of Snow Leopard dropped from the $129 Apple charged for previous versions of Mac OS X to $29.
    hope this solves your problem

  • Will my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless work with the new Mac OS Lion

    Will my HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless work with the new Mac OS Lion

    My experience with upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion is that the OfficeJet Pro 8500 Wireless will print just fine, although it seems to take a little longer to find the printer on the network. My scan function however locks up and will not work. This really is an annoyance, though, since I have VueScan, which works fine with Lion.
    Hopefully, Apple and HP will not orphan the OS native scanning feature for HP multifunction printers.

    Yes/No/perhaps. All depends on the specifics of the system and its configuration. most stuff should work, but of course there always could be compatibility issues.

    How can i play my avi formatted movies with the new mac OSX 10.9.2 update?

    Try using VLC or installing both QuickTime 7 and Perian. Nothing will work with all AVIs; some of them require codecs not available for Mac OS X.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    That's the classic behaviour after using Migration Assistant and that's normal.
    To transfer the data from the new user account to your old user account, you can follow some steps. Here is all the information you need to do this > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-5472

    Recntly got a new Mac and the music/apps prevsly purchased wt my apple id are not showin up on my new device.
    I have auth the new mac & gone thru all the recommended steps.
    The purchases do show under purchase histry in my acc info but not under Purchases in the iStore.
    I did chnge the country setting recently so not sure if there is any issue that the songs/apps were purchased when registered in another country but this really shouldn't make a difference

    It is possible to get the new mac book air with the european keyboard in the USA?

    super keyword is used when there is inheritance (class extending other class). In your particular case, super keyword doesn�t make sense, since there isn�t inheritance between A and B. You can use the INT field by an instance of A class.
    a keyword like "parent" does not exist in java.

  • New install of CS3 on my new Mac OSX Lion does not start

    Good morning,
    I have an old Mac running CS3, that was upgraded to Lion afterwards with no difficulty.
    I bought a new Mac 27" Mac OSX Lion, when installing CS3 on it, the licence number does not register a green check (horrible red cross instead....) Licence number is valid, legally purchased....
    What's wrong here? I can't aford to upgrade just for that reason....

    Since this is a serial number issue you can't post anywhere, I would do one-on-one chat support for activation:

    Where did you purchase your copy of Photoshop? My one concern is that the serial #/product was counterfeit:

  • Is the new DM version 2 worth the switch?

    Whenever BlackBerry DM shows a new version out, I get the willies.  Some versions have been awful - duplicating and triplicating calendar events, or wiping out everything. So... is it worth taking the leap from v. 1.0.4? What are the advantages? I wouldn't mind getting rid of the dialog box that constantly pops up on syncs telling me it can't find Entourage Notes.  What are the known problems so far?
    Thanks.

    No, it's voip capabilities are exactly the same as previous firmware versions so it still does not support true native voip like the N97 does.
    The 5800 is highly unlikely to ever receive this feature.  As before you will need to use a program such as fring or nimbuzz for voip on the 5800.

  • Saving illustrator CS5 files in Mac OSX Lion makes the app to crash

    Hello!
    I have serious troubles with illustrator since i've installed Lion. All my files are stored in a networked Western Digital USB disk connected to the Airport Extreme via USB port. When a file is open in illustrator and try to save ir after a few changes the APP CRASH! No matter if the file was in the desktop or in the networked drive, always crash! The file is saved OK and with no errors but the app crash and need to be "Force Quited" and open again...
    Anybody has this issue with illustrator and Lion? Anybody has a fix for this?
    THANKS!!!

    Like leitowys all of my ai files that are saved over the network (on time capsule) do it... Big or small.
    I should also note I never had this problem in Snow Leopard ... On my laptop I reverted back to snow leopard after upgrading to lion, and my illustrator works fine again saving over network etc.
    Also, when I try to force quit once it has frozen up in illustrator, everything freezes up and I eventually have to power button restart.
