Keychain behaves different after Snow Tiger upgrade

Under Tiger when I opened Apple Mail I would get a window that said "Mail wants to use Login Keychain". This would happen when I first opened Mail and that was all.
After installing Snow Tiger I get this window popping up repeatedly -- every time I receive or send mail.
I've read numerous articles on Keychain Access, but I can't seem to understand how this works or how to fix it. Maybe I'm a bit dense, but it all just confuses me more.
Any suggestions?

Start with perusing the hits from this google search: *mail AND password site:apple.com*.
BTW, it's Snow Leopard, not Tiger.

Receiving email after Snow Leopard upgrade

Everything works fine after Snow Leopard upgrade 10.6.2 except I cannot RECEIVE email. I have checked with Comcast and verified my settings for both incoming and outgoing POP mail.

Hello and welcome to the Discussions.
I had no problems of this sort when upgrading to Snow Leopard or 10.6.2. Were you already running Snow Leopard in an earlier version, or did you upgrade from Tiger (10.4.11) directly to SL 10.6.2?
Quit Mail, and in the Finder open Home/Library/Mail. Locate any files named to include MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded. At the root level of the Mail folder you should find one named MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3, but look in each POP account folder also. There if you find any other, including MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2 delete them from each POP account folder -- they are not used in versions of Mail later than 2.1.3.
Relaunch Mail and test.

Isight no longer works after snow leopard upgrade

my isight no longer is available directly after snow leopard upgrade on my macbook black. Anyone else with the same problem? The isight does not show up in 'about this mac' under USB and I tried resetting SMC and PRAM.

Hi,
In Leopard there was an App called iSight Update app that was in Hard Drive/System/Library/Core Services
This does not seem to be there in Snow Leopard.
An issue with some computers with the camera was that in System Preferences > Displays the Colours needed to be set to Millions.
Also check the Hard Drive/System/Library/Extensions folder and see that you have the Apple_iSight.kext (this is likely to handle the Internal iSights as well).
One last thing.
Some Web sites can make use of the camera using Flash.
If that tab is still open the Browser may have use of the camera.
It sounds like you have done computer restarts and this will not be the case unless the browser is set to go back to that page.

Wifi problems since 10.5.8 Update. Even after Snow Leopard Upgrade.

Wifi problems since 10.5.8 Update. Even after Snow Leopard Upgrade.
Is there any way to use a 10.5.7 wireless .kext files on Snow Leopard? And where can I find the files?

Ok, I have the fix!! After several frustrating days it finally just works.
The process:
Upgrade your Macs to 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
Powercycle your modem AND time capsule / airport TWICE
Reset your time capsule with a pin or paperclip on the back
Follow the prompts to setup your time capsule / airport access
-- On your Macs
Go to System Preferences > Network > Airport > Advanced > TCP/IP
Click "Renew DHCP Lease" then click "Ok"
Click Apply
Turn off Airport
Turn Airport on
IT WORKS!!!
One of the magical people at tech support walked me through it earlier today. The whole process took about 1.5 hrs because Show Leopard takes about an hour to install on one machine.
Hope this helps-

Can't Print After Snow Leopard Upgrade

I have a home network centered around an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station. The base station is wired to a Linksys network switch which, in turn, is wired to two computers - an Apple Dual G5 running OS X 10.4.11 and a and Mac MIni which, until yesterday was running Leopard. I have an HP Laserjet P1006 connected to the USB port of the AEBS and, until yesterday, everything worked fine. Yesterday, I ran the Snow Leopard Upgrade on my Mini and now the Mini won't print to the HP over the network. If I connect the printer directly to the MIni, it works fine; as soon as I reconnect the printer to the AEBS, the Mini will no longer print. The lights on the printer will flash but nothing comes out. I have downloaded the HP Printer driver update from Apple but this didn't help. I have reset the AEBS, to no avail. The G5 running Tiger has no problems with printing. And, my daughter just got a brand-new MacBook Pro loaded with Snow Leopard from the factory and she can print to the HP over the network without any problems.
Any ideas?

When I upgraded iMac from Leopard to Snow Leopard 10.6 it also stopped printing wirelessly to Brother MFC6490CW.
I thought I had this same issue with my Epson printer when wireless printing. Actually, in SL, wireless printing is very slow at least with an Epson. Takes about 5 minutes or so for wireless print to even start. When checking the printing status app, it will start out saying "printer ready." Then after a few minutes it will say "looking for printer." A few minutes later it will say "printing."
When I go into the next room where the printer is, the green light is "flashing" letting me know that "printing" has started.
So I guess what I am trying to say is to check the printing status app after you click "print." It's possible "Brother" is just as slow as "Epson."

VIM behaves differently after visual selection. (if locale="eo.UTF-8")

This seems to be a bug in my VIM editor, because never had this problem before.
But I want to be sure first, by asking here if someone else can reproduce this problem.
The steps to reproduce are...
Set your system locale to Esperanto language. Mine → “eo.UTF-8”
Edit any text file from the CMD, like “$ vim file.txt”.
Start Visual-line selection mode.
...and then, in less than 1 second the selection should be lost, the selected block should “deselect”.
Once this happens, VIM starts behaving differently. Needing to press ESC more than one time to enter command-mode, becoming unpredictably unresponsive many times while I am editing and entering insert mode, and forgetting the undo history... so I do a “:u” command and the file changes back to its first version, ignoring all the changes history in between.
The only solution in this case, is closing the file and opening again.
But once I try to visual-select for first time, it happens again.
Thanks in advance for your time.

First visual line selection is deselected almost immediately. But visual selections of any kind do work afterwards.
Necessity of multiple ESCs is confirmed.
Thanks a lot for your time, so it seems there is definitely a bug here.
bernarcher wrote:The history seems to remain intact, however. (But I did not try hard.)
Correct VIM’s behavior, by doing this:
Enter insert mode.
Insert random text.
Exit insert mode.
↑ Repeat some times.
Perform some Undo actions.
Should be, one insertion Undo per :u.
But if I do this after triggering this bug, one undo would ignore all changes made since the “buggy mode” was triggered.

PS3 and Safari crashes after Snow Leopard upgrade

How is everyone enjoying the crashes after their Snow Leopard upgrade? I can't save a photo using PS3, or download a photo to flickr or facebook without a crash. PS3 crashes, Safari crashes and work flow is at a crawl? Spoke with tech yesterday and they told me that this would stop if I downloaded Snow Leopard again, which I did, but the problem wasn't resolved. To top it off, I lost permissions on the iMac and can't use the computer. Please tell me where all of the accolades came from? Were the reviews done by people who actually work on their computers or by people who play on them? Oh, and another thing, lost my wireless access to the router and had to start all over. Be careful here, this has not been fun!

Excuse me, I meant to write CS3 instead of PS3.

Lightroom and MAC Pro (intel) after Snow Leopard Upgrade?

I have heard several horror stories about serious operational problems with Lightroom and MACs after they have upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard.
I have been trying to get to the bottom of it, but all I have been able to glean is that yes, there are some issues, but I can't find out cause and effect.
Since I heard of the things I have not opened any Adobe Software, and won't until I can be assured that I too don't experience the same horror story.
Are there any people out there that have experienced any of these problems? If so, do you know what caused them, and, more importantly, how to fix them?
Thank you for any help and direction you can provide.

Some users have reported that Edit in Photoshop CSx functionality is partially broken (e.g. Open as Smart Object launches Photoshop, but image doesn't actually open).
With Photoshop (and many other applications) there are reports of the application crashing when the user tries to save a JPG file.
Source of problem? Snow Leopard
Is it really the problem that some would have you believe? Nope
Are there any workarounds? Ask Apple
BTW: I use Snow Leopard and don't have a problem recommending it to others.

Getting Disconected From Internet After Snow Leopard Upgrade - Solved

I know there are many ideas on this site about this topic but i just want to share mine. I stared having problems with my internet connection after I have upgraded to Snow Leopard. I tried few suggestions from this site and from the web but nothing worked for me. I decided to backup everything and do a clean install of SL.
After I did clean install I started to re-install all my applications, my internet connection was working fine at that time until I installed Skype. As soon as Skype connects to the internet I’m back to the old problem where my internet connection would drop every few minutes. As soon as I removed Skype everything was back to normal no more dropped connections.
Hope this helps someone with the same problem

It's not Skype.....it's Growl - part of that package...

Aperture 2.1.4 Crashing after Snow Leopard Upgrade

Hi All
Upgraded to Snow Leopard today and then shortly after a successful upgrade, also upgraded Aperture to 2.1.4 via software update.
It now crashes almost immediately after launch giving the output below. It would seem that the "library not loaded" part would be the cause.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had this same error message, removed Aperture and all receipts, re-installed Aperture 2.0 from the CD, and installed the upgrade to 2.1.4. When I launched it, I got the same error message. I have no plug-ins installed. Any other ideas?
Thanks so much.
Edit: Also, I upgraded my MacBook Air to Snow Leopard and had no problem, but on my Mac Pro where I'm having the problem, I installed Snow Leopard on a clean drive and transferred all of my data from a Time Machine back-up.

Finder search "aliases" missing after Snow Leopard upgrade

I'm dealing with a crazy annoyance after upgrading from Leopard to Snow Leopard - currently running 10.6.2
I have 2 duplicate, external, 1TB WestDig Drives. I have no problems accessing these drives from the Finder, but if I use Finder search or Smart Folders, the corresponding folders on the external drives never open on the first try. I always receive the message:
+The alias “…” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found.+
On the second try, search result folders open fine and I don't seem to have any further problems with a folder once it has been opened successfully from within search.
It seems that after my Snow Leopard upgrade every search on the external drive reveals "missing" folder aliases although the "aliases" appear as regular folder icons.
I tried re-indexing Spotlight but this did not solve the problem. I also trashed my plist files for Finder and Spotlight which didn't help either.
External Drive volume info from Terminal:
+drwxrwxr-x 21 782 Mar 14 17:18 PHOTOGRAPHY ARCHIVE+
FWIW I've found others having similar problems on the Apple forums HERE and HERE. I've tried their suggested PathFinder workaround without success.
This is driving me bonkers because it renders Smart Folders somewhat useless. Additionally, these external drives work fine on my old installation of 10.5 Leopard
Thanks for any help!

HI,
Try repairing disk permissions...
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

After Snow Leopard upgrade, my HP Color LaserJet 2600n is unusable

I use my HP printer everyday with 10.5 and quite happy with it.
Now, after the recommended upgrade, I cannot print anymore.
I am quite lucky that I have a VM Ware with Windows OS installed. Now, I have to PDF the document I want to print and then print from my VM Windows OS.
How could Apple do that? They said this is incremental upgrade, but, it kills the printer drivers. Huh...
I then called local support. His recommendations are:
1) Call HP and ask them why
2) Downgrade to Leopard 10.5 and wait until the driver is available for 10.6; Then, upgrade the OS;
lol.

I've exhausted all the suggestions that I've found on-line, IP printing guntenprint drivers, redownloaded hp drivers, etc, etc. Still can't print!! I've hooked up my laptop directly to the printer and still won't work. I see the printer via Bonjour but it will not add it using the HP driver, using the Gutenprint driver I can add it but it won't print.

Logic Express 9 Crashes after Snow Leopard Upgrade from Tiger

I just upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard. I have yet to install iLife, though I have it. I have installed Logic Express. Everytime I attempt to pull it up, it crashes with some sort of kern protection failue. Can anyone advise me?

Hi Cris,
These might be Obvious and things you have already done... But...
Since doing the Upgrade... Have you Run Software Update... Repaired Permissions and Restarted...?
Also how did you Put Logic on... From the Original Install Discs...?
And, I'm not sure... But Logic Express maybe expecting to see iLife Installed...
Cheers,

Isight not working with skype and tokbox after snow leopard upgrade

Recently, I upgraded from Tiger to Snow Leopard. After the upgrade, I found that my built-in iSight camera wasn't recognized on TokBox. On Skype, it said that the iSight camera was in use by another application (however no other applications were running). The iSight is working with iChat, so I don't know what is wrong... everything was fine when I was using Tiger!

Okay, so I restarted my computer and that didn't work.
Then, I went through the suggestions from the link you posted. I found that the iSight works in iChat and Photobooth; however, it does not work in iMovie HD (exactly the same in both user accounts on my computer). Just like before, the iSight is "in use by another application" in Skype on both user accounts.
I reset the SMC, but it didn't seem to help anything. Everything was acting the same as before I reset it.
I also noticed that my iTunes and my iMovie won't open; they both quit unexpectedly every time I try to open them. This happens in both user accounts as well.
Okay, so it will be simplest to work your issues in steps. We will start with iMovie.
Use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions. Then reinstall iMovie HD 6. Repair permissions again after the installer finishes.
If the version of iMovie HD 6 in your iLife '06 DVD is not "6.0.3", download and install the update:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL319
If you need to do this update, repair permissions again after the update is finished.
Test the reinstalled iMovie HD 6 to see if it works in more than one user account and post back the results.
