Lion - Filevault2

Hi,
I've been having issues with filevault2. My machine behaves "normally" except everytime I try and turn filevault on I get the errors outlined below.
I am able to boot into recovery mode. I have done a clean install but still I am unable to turn filevault on. I'm using a mid 2010 2.66 GHz machine with 8GB of RAM. The software is up to date and is 10.7.5.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

AFAIK, FV 2 encrypts the entire disk. Check out the returns from a google search for filevault 2 site:apple.com, especially http://www.reedcorner.net/guides/macvirus/

Why Lion? You are here in a forum for workstations. Not ideal and for now isn't required until there is an update.
Turn this around, were you using BitLocker beforre? do you use a program now to encrypt data?
On Windows, you could also store data on encrypted VHD just like FileVault, but you can also run the OS from a VHD that doesn't save changes to the OS - great for doing things like online banking.
Also password protect file(s), encrypt hard drive, don't use a administrator account (which is default for Mac OS) and work in standard account.
As to guest account not saving changes, I think that is what it does.
The only reason to use Lion FileVault2 is for full system encryption, but being new, might also be risky. Of course any good paranoid has ample backup sets.
http://www.apple.com/macosx/whats-new/features.html#filevault2
Disk Utility has had encrypted disk images which can act like a VHD and FileVault without full user account.

How do I install Mountain Lion on FileVault2 encrypted System disk

So I got a Mountain Lion installation DVD from our system administrator at work to upgrade my 2010 MacBook Pro.
I run the installer from the disk under Lion and it copis stuff to /OS X Install Data and reboots. Now, it just displays the "Lion" passphrase input to unencrypt my disk and then boots into the old Lion install...
If I manually boot from the install CD (pressing Alt or C during boot), it works on the DVD for 15 mins, then starts the installer screen including a progress bar, and bails out with an error! No real information, but since it never asked for the FileVault2 passphrase it cannot access the disk. I can go to terminal and use diskutil to unlockVolume the System disk/partition and it is also automatically booted, but since the installer already stopped I do not seem to get back into the installer.
Is there something fundamentally wrong here?
Can I manually start the second-step installer from the CD-System's Terminal?
Can I run the reboot with directly passing the passphrase to the boot process, including the CD-based boot?
Can I run the installer such that it trys to decrypt the disk and asks me for a passphrase when it needs it?
Hope to find a solution shortly!
Thanks you for any ideas

Open the app store, purchase ML. go to second computer open app store select purchases at the top and click download. This is provided both computers use the same account.

I would highly appreciate it.

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 after waiting 10 seconds. 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.

File Vault 2 and Lion Recovery Partition

Has anyone noticed that the Lion recovery partition disapears after enabling File Vault 2? I don't have one anymore. It's Gone!

Check out the OS X Lion: About FileVault2 kb.
Starting from the Recovery HD partition after FileVault 2 is enabled
When FileVault 2 is enabled, Recovery HD does not appear in the Startup Manager (which is accessed by holding Option during startup). However, you can select the Recovery HD by holding Command-R as Lion starts up.

FileVault2 & no supported helper partition to update

While a workaround for a problem I had fixed the issue, the root cause remains.
I am using FileVault2 full disk encryption. It seems on my system the kernelcache never gets updated after the drive has been encrypted with FileVault. To be exact: The kernelcache on the helper partition 'Recovery HD' never gets updated. The kernelcache in
/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/kernelcache
gets updated correctly. What's missing is the part to transfer an updated kernelcache to the helper partition. The last lines of output from
kextcache -v 6 -update-volume /
are
Created prelinked kernel //System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/kernelcache.
CSFDE property cache does not need update.
/: no supported helper partitions to update.
So the kernel cache in the encrypted '/' partition is updated, but since there are 'no supported helper partitions to update', the new kernelcache is not copied to the location which is used during boot. At boot, the kernelcache from the helper partition is loaded. Its location is
/Volumes/Recovery\ HD/com.apple.boot.S/System/Library/Caches/com.apple.kext.caches/Startup/kernelc ache
For some reason the helper partition does not seem to be associated with my encrypted root partition. Does anyone know how to associate my helper partition with the encrypted root partition again?
Here is some background about my system and how I installed it:
My Mac has one internal disk. I use it for Time Machine backups only. It is not possible to boot from the internal disk. My system disk is an external SSD connected via USB 3.0.
I installed the system disk by holding CMD-r during boot to get the Mac into Recovery Mode. With Disk Utility I erased the SSD completely, left Disk Utility and installed OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3. When the installation was finished, I created a temporary admin user and used Migration Assistent to migrate all User accounts and programs from a backup. Then I logged into my user account which Migration Assistent had created, deleted the temporary admin user and activated File Vault. Later, I installed an upgrade for a program that uses a kernel extension. After every boot I got the message, the version of the kernel extension did not match the version of the program. While everything in the encrypted '/' partition had been updated correctly, the kernelcache on the Recovery HD had not. While I can copy the kernelcache to the helper partition manually, I think this a hack and it should happen automatically when the kernelcache is updated in the '/' partition. I am not aware having done somthing that could make Mac OS X loose the association between the '/' partition and the Recovery partition.

Yuo can't "undo" the update. Bose support may be your best bet.

Lion ui generally slow on macbook pro 5.1 -- gets worse w/ edirol fa-66 audio interface connected

so, after doing a fresh install of os x lion (10.7.1) I'm having issues with the speed of the user interface. it is just really sluggish, especially when compared to the the performance I used to get with snow leopard (10.6.8). dock, animations of all kinds, even parsing through finder trees, everything seems to stutter at around 20-25fps instead of the super smoothness I used to get in SL.
the funny thing is, it gets even worse when I hook up my firewire audio interface, the edirol fa-66. even when nothing is playing or being recorded, the UI
gets slower still. also, the cpu-temperature goes up by some 12-15°C.
the machine is a late 2008 15" macbook pro, 2.4GHz core 2 duo, 8GB ram, hybrid 7.2k/ssd drive (seagate momentus xt) w/ filevault2 full disk encryption on, and either the nvidia 9400m or 9600m gt graphics running.
to quantify: on the venerable xbench 1.3 user interface test I'm getting a score of around 90 with either graphics chip, instead of the 280+ I got in (snow) leopard. with the fa-66 connected, the score drops to an even lower 80. open gl and xquartz scores go down a similar percentage with the fa-66 connected.
so, is anybody out there having the same issues? ui just too slow? getting worse with the fa-66?
any useful ideas?

I have the same mac, except mine has a GeForce 8600M. I don't have any external audio devices but my computer has slowed down dramtically since I upgraded to lion, almost to the point where I can't use Aperture anymore. I didn't have any issues on snow leopard.

After encrypting with filevault 2 on mountain lion, safari is extremely slow

after encrypting with filevault2 on mountain lion, safari is running extremely slow.
it's taking more than 45 seconds (sometimes a full minute) to load pages.
my internet speeds are 35 mbps download and 6.35 mpbs upload, so it's not my internet connection.
i have deleted the cache files and the system preferences.
i'm finding that chrome is faster, but i'm seeing slowness there too.
in encrypted using filevault 2.0 yesterday, all software is up to date.
can anyone please help me with this? i don't want to have to turn off filevault.
thanks!

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have a wrong owner. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it, then drag or copy it — do not type — into the Terminal window:
find . $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID $ -ls
Press return. The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
Post any lines of output that appear below what you entered — the text, please, not a screenshot.

After upgrading to Lion, and then running fire vault I've lost my guest account from log-in and can't edit it in system preferences!

I upgraded successfully to Lion.
I then decrypted the legacy filevault and started the new firevault.
After this completed I noticed that I no longer have a guest account at log-in.
And I am unable to edit the guest account at system preferences even though I am admin.
(The guest account is unticked in system preferences - allow users to login).
Thanks.

Same here. Looks file FileVault2 disables the possibility to use a Guest Account as it enforces all accounts to have a password. In addition Auto Login is no longer possible. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4790 for details.

Cannot unlock FileVault2 drive when on Recovery Mode

Hi there!
I have a MacBook Pro 2009 with a Portuguese (Portugal) keyboard. I have my account set with this keyboard correctly. But when I try to unlock my FileVault2 partition on the Disk Utility application in Recovery Mode on MAC OS X Lion, I cannot correctly enter my password because there is no way I can change the default keyboard mapping.
I click on the US flag that came by default to change it to Portuguese, but cannot enter the password correctly, because it has not often used characters like "€$%&/!" etc.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Marcus.

Mountain Lion finally FIPS 140-2 approved

I have seen no press coverage about this nor mention here in the forums, nor announcement by Apple. Perhaps even Apple are as yet unaware of this
Mountain Lion and iOS 6 have both finally received offical FIPS 140-2 certification. You can see this by going to the following page and searching for Apple.
http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cmvp/documents/140-1/140val-all.htm
This should mean it is now possible to use FileVault2 instead of third-party equivalents such as PGP or CheckPoint or Sophos or WinMagic.
(Have I got a news scoop here )
PS. The following article will also be important - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5396

NSS is a set of security libraries written in C so you can certainly use C APIs to access it as well. JSS is the Java interface to NSS. You can either use the JSS API directly or use Sun's PKCS11 wrapper which gives you access to most of the NSS functionalities.

I also did lost my WLAN connection everytime I tried to download this .dmg (either recovery mode or in "live mode" http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20110831105634716). I had several issues, sometimes even my WiFi password got lost while downloading...
I think this problem is related to the activated FileVault2 full disk encryption.
Even after EFI Firmware Update 2.1 nothing changed.
My configuration is: Router: Netgear TEW-631BRP and MacBook Air Mid 2011.
Now my solution:
I set up a
DMZ Host
The DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) option lets you set a single computer on your network outside of the router. If you have a computer that cannot run Internet applications successfully from behind the router, then you can place the computer into the DMZ for unrestricted Internet access.
Note: Putting a computer in the DMZ may expose that computer to a variety of security risks. Use of this option is only recommended as a last resort.
Maybe other Router have similar settings to disable a router firewall completly!
Hope this helps.

Clean Install of Lion with FileVault

Hi,
I was planning to do a clean install of lion but wondered if I should switch off FileVault2 before I do anything then once the install is done re-enable it or doesnt it matter?
I have a SuperDuper clone with filevault.
Thanks
Gavin

Yes, it should. I was successful with my Win7 Boot Camp partition. But as always, be sure to backup the Windows partition, with a cloning utility if posssible, just in case...

FileVault2 does not start MBP

I made clean Lion re-intsall because previously HD restore partition missed. Than restore from TC. Than turned on FileVault2.
The start up process stucked in with grey desktop, spinning circle and finally stop table.
OK. I started again. Format HD. Clean Lion re-install. Restore from TC.
Everything seems to be good. Than turned on FileVault2.
Storry was same. Login, pass. Good. Start up. Grey screen, spinning circle.
FileVault2 with full HD encryption does not work.
I may ask any advise, fix this problem, or any information's what is the reason?
Thx

do you use a MacPro in the age range of early 2008? If yes, I have the same problem and did not find any solution to get to a working FileVault2 partion... I spend several days to fix it but I found no solution. So my guess is the problem is the hardware it is running on...
T.

Lion - Filevault2
