Issues with Lion upgrade - 2-finger gestures and iTunes
I have a late 2008 13-inch aluminum-body MacBook. Until yesterday I had Snow Leopard installed. Yesterday I upgraded to Lion and installed the updates, So I'm running 10.7.1. I have had two issues already:
1) Two-finger trackpad gestures do not work. Three- and Four-fingered gestures are working fine. I tried the unselect-reboot-reselect fix that worked for others, and it didn't help. Basically, I can't use gestures to scroll, which is exceedingly annoying.
2) I updated iTunes to the current version. My iTunes library has reverted to a version from 2008. None of my app purchases, TV show purchases, podcast downloads, etc. since that time are showing up in iTunes, even after I connected my Store account. The store says I have no new purchases to download. Additionally, iTunes does not seem to recognize the iPod Touch that I've been using with this computer since I purchased it several years ago - it says that the iPod is connected to a different iTunes library and cannot sync unless I wipe the whole thing.
My iTunes library is located on an external hard drive, but I can't seem to locate the actual "Library" file to fix iTunes.
Any ideas?
I just updated tonight and have exact same problem. . No more gestures with 2 fingers etc.

Issues with Lion recognizing keyboard and mouse functions
Hello everyone,
I have read that there were issues with Lion so I waited for months before I upgraded hoping that there would be enough complaints to warrant a fix from the tech lords. I decided to finally upgrade and the issues with incompatible software came to fruition. Fortunately I don't need to upgrade anytime soon but here's my real issue. I have a logitech mouse and keyboard and Lion won't recognize the keyboard, even with product upgrade. Also, the right click button is not functioning the way it should. I can no longer right click and copy and paster anymore. Being a long time mac head from the 80s I know there are always issues but I have never experienced this many. Any suggestions?
ThanksI had the same setup with the apple BT keyboard and the V270 mouse. I also work with the lid closed and with an external monitor (I bet that you are also using airport)! Both devices seem to intermittently loose connection, and the mouse cursor doesn't track very well. Looking through postings it seems that airport interferes with BT, and the behavior I've seen seems to support this. I stopped using the mouse because I couldn't get it to work adequately. I'v also tried using BT headphones (Motorola HT820) which at best the sound drops out intermittently, and at worse crashes OS X. I'm thinking that BT on the Macbook Pro just marginally works... I'd be curious if you ever had any success with your setup!

I've upgraded to LION. It looks like LION eliminates the finger gestures within internet browsing that used to yield navigating to the previous page or navigating to the next page. I think it was a 3 finger swipe to the left and a 3 finger swipe to the right. It looks like this has been eliminated. I've gone into the system preferences and went through all the new settings for the track pad finger gestures. I've not found a combination that allows me to swipe on the track pad to do the page forward / page back function.
How to I get this back? I was my favorite one and now I can't get there!For going back to the previous page try a 2-finger gesture. Two fingers in the other direction will take you back.

Recently upgraded to a Canon Mark 3 and now having issues with my RAW files in Bridge and Photoshop. I have operating with CS4. Photoshop produces and error " Could not complete your request because photoshop does not recognize this type of file"
Assuming you mean 5D Mark III, Photoshop CS4 cannot directly open raw files from your camera.
Generally speaking, Adobe stopped updating older versions to be able to read raw files from newer cameras when they released a new major version of Photoshop. Photoshop CS4 is no longer receiving Camera Raw updates.
You can double check this yourself:
First you need to determine whether Adobe has released support for your new camera in your version of Photoshop. To do that, look at these two pages. You'll want to find out the earliest version of Camera Raw that can support your camera, then what version of Photoshop can run that version of Camera Raw.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
If you find your camera is supported by your version of Photoshop, you need to download the latest update for Camera Raw. There's more information on how to do that here:
Keeping Photoshop Up-To-Date
If your version of Photoshop cannot support your camera, you can download and install the latest version of the free Adobe DNG Converter, which can take your raw files as input and put out DNG format files, which your version of Photoshop can open.
Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
The DNG converter DOES work, but if you want maximal quality from your raw files (not to mention the convenience and ease of use of directly opening your raw files) you'll want the latest version of Photoshop. Adobe has made substantial improvements in raw conversion quality in recent years.

HT4628 Still having issues with Lion os X and wi-fi
I am still havign issues with Lion os X and wi-fi. I have 3 domputers in my house including the new macbook pro that has lion os x installed. The wifi drops out all the time (every 2 minutes). I have followed all the instructions on how to fix this but I am still having issues. The other two computers work fine, one of the is Lion os X that has been updated but I managed to play with the setting and fix this one. This computer worked fine on Snow leapard and then a soon as I installed Lion the wifi started having issues.
When will apple make an update that is going to fix this problem. You want to buy a new computer that works, I took it into apple and they told me that it is my router, but I know it is the software as there are 100's of blogs and threads about this exact issue occuring only when their computer was updated to Lion.
Is there anything else I can do to fix this issue other then un-installing Lion and buying Snow Leapard?Does this problem happen with just your airport base station? Do you have a 3rd party wireless router? Can you duplicate the problem using any wifi access point? Did your computer come with 10.7 preinstalled? Did you purchase the applecare with your computer?

Issues with Lion, anyone having the same ones?
I'm having several of issues with Lion (mostly with Safari). Wondering if anyone else has these problems. I'm hoping/assuming these will be bugs that Apple will fix with a software update? Or if therres any fix for them?
1. Zoom while in Safari, the 2 finger pinch and zoom feature stops working after a while usually. I used to like the zoom in snow leopard where on a webpage it would zoom you in while keeping the page contents within the screen. You can still accomplish this by doing the command + shortcut. But I really liked the touchpad feature. I don't mind the way the zoom works on safari (zooming in wihtout keeping the page in the screen). But my problem is it stops working after a certain amount of time.
2. Safari freezing up. Yes, my safari is freezing and I'm needing to force quit every now and then. Never really had that problem with snow leopard.
3. Swiping to go to my desktop. When I try to 4 finger swipe to get to my desktop or something (going to the left always), My launchpad keeps coming up. Thats HORRIBLY annoying. I have to go to my icons and manually turn launchpad off. This might be my most annoying problem.
4. Getting mission control up with the four fingers swiping up usually takes 2 or 3 swipes, and also when I'm in mission control and I want to go to something on my desktop (if I have 2 or 3 things open while having mail and safari on full screen), it takes 2 or 3 clicks to select whatever I want to go to.
Overall I really DO like lion. Just don't like those glitches Ive seen so far. Anyone having the same problems?Tmilless wrote:

Yes! I see the same! Extremely annoying. And as long as the pinch-zoom works, it's very unstable, and sometimes seems to freeze Safari with a "fuzzy" picture. It doesn't really freeze it, though, I can still use otheropen tabs, and usually a double-tap zoom "wakes" the "frozen tab". -
What iPhoto version is compatible with Lion OSX 10.7.5 and will it let me make photo calendars?
What iPhoto version is compatible with Lion OSX 10.7.5 and will it let me make photo calendars?
I have just upgraded from Leopard to Lion (via Snow Leopard) because I could no longer order photo calendars with iphoto 7.1.5. However, I still have iphoto 7.1.5 and need to upgrade this. From the App store it looks as though I cannot get iphoto 9.5.1 due to the incompatibility with Lion. I was recemmended not to upgrade beyond Lion due to the age of my iMac computer (2008 version) by Stormfront staff.
What is the best iphoto to upgrade to and how do I do this e.g. iLife '09 or '11, or are there any other 'stand-alone' versions of iphoto that would be compatible? How do I know whether my computer is capable of upgrading to Mountain Lion? I definitely want to be able to make photo calendars, books and cards.
ThanksiPhoto '09 or '11 - purchase an iLife '09 or '11 DVD (amazon or eBay are potential sources) and install iPhoto and update to the latest version for your OS

Has anyone successfully used the Intuit Quicken compatible with Lion upgrade for investment tracking?
Although I gave up investment tracking for personal reasons (I had used Quicken Deluxe 2002 for many years for that reason), my understanding is that the new Quicken 2007 for Lion/Mt. Lion is completely the same feature wise as Quicken 2007 for PPC. It will run on Snow Leopard, too.
For $15, why not download it and just try it and LET US KNOW! -
I filled out the form for Mountain Lion upgrade in the morning and expected to get the codes... It is 10 pm and no codes. Is it normal?
If it was the contact form for the forum mod team then it is normally about 3 working days as all mails are dealt with strictly in turn also if it was that form you would have had a confirmation immediately you sent the contact form as it opens a new web page with a reference number on it and also you will be personally contacted by phone or email

Issue after Lion upgrade - recognising older OS iPad
I have the older OS on one family iPad and now it doesn't show Lion upgrade - Any ideas
Try this and see if it works. Quit iTunes on the Mac, restart the Mac, restart the iPad, connect the iPad to your Mac, launch iTunes and see what happens.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -

URL issue with Windows 7 Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW PI 7.
Hello SAP community,
I am facing a strange issue with Windows 7 - Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW java services (I hope I am in the correct discussion) ...
When I try to open URL http://sapserver.hosters-name:port it is working so far with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 11.
But when I click than on NWA (example), I am getting "http 500 server error".
I don't have the issue, when I start-up a VMware Workstation with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8.
But now the strange part: In our network DNS (Domain Name Service), we can also open the URL by http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
Than it is working without problems with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer.
I would agree to state the comment - it is just a Windows 7/Internet Explorer 11 issue, if it wouldn't work for both URLs (http://sapserver.hosters-name:port = problem URL; http://sapserver.our-dsn:port = working).
We are using a SAP NW PI 7.x system. Some URLs for PI are using http://sapserver.hosters-name:port/java service.
Do you have any hints what is cause the issue - I suspect some with Internet Explorer and Firefox (because with Google Chrome at least the URL for NWA is opened, beside the issue, Google Chrome can't display NWA content)?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards
CarlosHi all,
I think I found the solution.
The reason seems to be, the domain name for http://sapserver.our-dns:port, "our-dns" was already added to the compatibility view settings of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
That seemed to be the reason, why it was working with http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
When I now added for http://sapserver.hosters-name:port the domain "hosters-name" to the compatibility view settings it is now working.
Internet Explorer Options => Settings for compatibility view => Add domain
Best regards

Few days back I installed Autocad 2014 in my macbook pro 15" early 2012.For few days it worked fine but since last two days I'm getting graphical lag in my mac. Finger gestures and dock movement all seems to be lagging badly.Please help.I'm using mavericks
We regularly use Cocktail by Maintain software. You run the whole gamut of options but the important one is in System - Databases - Rebuild launch services. Also in Files - Caches - then clear the lot.
This is just houskeeping really but there are so many 'links' in A/cad it needs 'cleaning'
