Just upgraded to Lion, problem now syncing contacts onto Blackberry using Desktop Manager
I just upgraded to Lion, got iCloud going. Works great with my iPhone, but my husbands Blackberry no longer syncs properly using the Blackberry Desktop Manager. Installed the latest version of that program & still no luck. The calendar, music and photos sync fine, but all of the contacts have been wiped out now on the phone and not a single one will sync over from the mac.
I have the same problem. I've tried many solutions but no success. ICloud has been a curse. I love my Mac but if I can't sync my BB 9930, I may have to change.

I only upgraded to Lion because of iCloud. I have an AppleTV, an iPhone 4S and my MacBook Pro so it just made sense. But now, I was in the process of downloading a season of a TV show that I purchased earlier today and it still had about 15 episodes left to go and it now says "iTunes Store is temporarily unavailable, iTunes is unable to check for downloads" Any help would be appreciated!

maybe they are doing maintenance? I would wait awhile and check back later. -
I had been holding off upgrading to Lion because of the bad press, but discovered that I could no longer receive email on my Mac because my iPhone had been moved to iClound by an Apple tech when it had to be replaced, and my Snow Leopard version wouldn't support iCloud. So I upgraded to Lion and immediately began having trouble. First I was told that several of my software applications were incompatible and had been removed. Then I discovered that Safari (apparently the latest version 5.1.3) had lost functionality. I can't attach anything to my emails and the search window is grayed out and inoperable. Is there a fix or do I need to retreat to Snow Leopard? Bob Kellam
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
As Guest, test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2. -

Can't sync Outlook 2010 contact pictures to Blackberry using desktop manager?
I'm new to the forum. I have an issue with syncing my Blackberry Tour to with my Outlook 2010 through Desktop Manager 6. All the data for Calendar and Contacts syncs correctly except for the contact photos. When I sync the photo's from Outlook don't transfer over to the blackberry and If I have a photo attacked to a contact on the blackberry it get's removed. There is one exception to this and that is that Facebook photo's linked to contacts remain on the blackberry as well as Outlook. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Hi asrjcb,
I would recommend downloading and installig the latest version of BlackBerry Desktop Manager. This now has support for Microsoft Outlook 2010 64-bit.

What is apples version of microsoft office?
You most likely are using Office 2004 which requires Rosetta. Lion now longer supports Rosetta so all PPC-only programs fail to work. The solution is simple: upgrade to Office 2011.

Help! I just upgraded to Lion and now iDVD will not play any projects. Any ideas?
I finally downloaded and installed the latest OSX Lion update. After doing this, I find that when I launch iDVD to work on projects, no content is shown in the project at all, just the empty template. Any thoughts on this? I would hate to have to recreate my .dvdproj files again!
Thanks,
FrankTry the following: download BatChmod and run on the iDVD project package with the settings shown in the screenshot below:

If your files use a different Group you can use it. Then launch iDVD and see if you can open the project file.

I have just upgraded to Lion and now my VPN connection does not work properly. It was working fine when I was using Leopard. The VPN is My Private Network and we use it to link to BBC iPlayer when abroad. It will actually connect to the VPN site and shows a UK IP address, but then when we try to load an iPlayer programme we get the message from the BBC that we are not in the country and, therefore, cannot access the site. Any suggestions?
Have a look at System Preferences, Accessibility, VoiceOver.

HT3258 Upgraded to Lion and now I can't get my monitor to work
I just upgraded to Lion and now I can't connect to my Dell monitor. I am using a MacAir. I have tried chaning the input. But that didn't work. Any suggestions?
That was a widely publicized fact, it is a good idea to always check compatibility before upgrading. Your options are to go back to SL or find another app.

Just upgraded to Lion. Scroll does not respond. Have tried altering preferences. Will not fix. In all applications, including this page, a box appears and seems to randomly move around the screen, resting wherever I begin to work. How can I turn this off and get scroll to work normally?

Just upgraded to Lion last night and it works very smooth and fine. The only problem was the WarCraft3 Frozen Throne. I was able to run the game but the home menu until the game starts, it becomes black instead of blue. Before, it works very fine on Snow Leopard.
Have you contacted the vendor? Have you perused the game's online forums?
