Lion OS random freezing. Any updates on a fix for this?

I've downloaded the latest Lion OS updates but my iMac continues to randomly freeze up and requires a restart. Any updates on a fix for this?

Create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the freezes persist.

  • The error that I am getting is this "Time Machine can't use the disk image because it can't be written to."  Any ideas on the fix for this?

    The error that I am getting is this "Time Machine can't use the disk image because it can't be written to."  Any ideas on the fix for this?  When I go to the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro shows that it is locked, I think I did something wrong, but can't figure how to unlock it to see if that fixes it.

    As far as we know, Time Machine cannot write to a disk image. It needs to write directly to the Time Capsule disk.

  • Firefox seems to freeze after a few moment when I switch whatever I have plugged into the audio jack. Any suggestions on a fix for this?

    Whenever I pull out my speaker/headphones out of its jack to put in my speaker/headphones Monzilla freezes. Any idea on what it could be?
    It completely freezes, and does not unfreeze if I wait it out. I have to close it with task manager which then tells me the program is not responsive. I shut it down, and Firefox does not act like it had a crash or anything of the sort.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe Mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • REMOTE DESKTOP (MICROSOFT) NOT WORKING SINCE YOSEMITE UPDATE.  ANY ONE KNOW A FIX FOR THIS ?

    MICROSOFT RDP HAS WORKED FINE WITH YOSEMITE. 
    AIRPORT UTILITY IS UP TO DATE.
    SINCE YOSEMITE UPGRADE THERE IS NO ABILITY TO CONNECT FROM HOME TO OFFICE.
    IOS DEVICES CAN CONNECT BUT THEY ARE CELLULAR ANYWAY SO IT SEEMS TO BE CONNECTED TO THE WIFI NETWORK.
    I AM RUNNING MY CONNECTION TO THE INTERNET ON A RECENTLY PURCHASED NETGEAR ROUTER.
    THERE IS ALSO A TIME CAPSULE IN MY SETUP.
    ANY SUGGESTIONS ?

    Thats a good point. Let's troubleshoot network connectivity.
    Open RDP, right click your connection and select edit, then copy the PC name.
    open terminal Finder > Utilities > Terminal and type the following
    telent YourPCName 3389
    where "YourPCName" is the name you copied above. Hit enter
    You won't get a "success" message or anything, if the terminal window just goes blank, then there is not a firewall/network issue.
    If you clearly get an error, then it's either Firewall or DNS. Try the following in terminal
    ping YourPCName
    if it starts showing an IP address, line by line by line, then it is definatelly a firewall issue
    if not, trying getting the IP address from the winders box by opening a command prompt and type
    ipconfig
    do all the above again but use the IP address in place of YourPCName

  • It seems that Google search is not compatable with Firefox 9.0.1? Any fixes for this?

    I just upgraded to Firefox 9.0.1 Suddenly, my Google toolbar search does not work. Any work around or fix for this?

    Why do these companies do this!! They take something useful screw it up out of mere caprice just to keep their programmers busy. I sure some genius at Google thinks this was a good idea. "Let's really annoy our users by making it more difficult to use our sites. Oh but it looks so cool now". Change for the sake of change is annoying and idiotic and I hate it.
    Baloney. I have tried Safari, Google Chrome, and Opera and all support the top navigation bar in Google Earth and Finance. Firefox is the problem!

  • After updating to ios 5, my calendar sometimes freezes when entering a new event. I have tried syncing but it doesn't fix the problem. Are there any bug fixes for this? Any ideas would be great thanks, I don't really want to have to reset everything!

    Try to reset the iPod by  pressing the home and sleep button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing a reset, but it can clear some glitches after installing new software or apps.

    If you bought the MBP new 3 weeks ago, it should have come with Mountain Lion already installed. Did you update your MBP to the newly released 10.8.4 update? If not, what OS were you running before the upgrade, and what version of Mountain Lion do you have now?

  • I have just updated to Lion and now my folders no longer show number of items on the bottom. Is there a fix for this?

    I have just updated to Lion and now my folders no longer show number of items on the bottom. Is there a fix for this? I allways found that handy. Now I have to click on an icon on the top, This is a backward step if that is now the only way to see the number of items. Am I missing something obvious?

    In the good old days of Snow Leopard, an open Finder folder had a border along the bottom of the window which could show the number of items in that window and the total available space on the hard disk or partition that folder resides on. That bottom border is gone in Lion and those two bits of information are gone with it. Is that what you're talking about? If so, I'd like to learn how to get it back too and "Show Item Info" is not the way.

    From your description, you have deployed Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 and Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 in a co-existence environment. After you upgrade to CU6, databases unexpectedly shut down. In your case, here is a kb for your reference.

    I would say that you would want to look into the "Exchange Mode" for GMail.  That would allow your iPhone to sync calendars, contacts and email with GMail just fine.  Doing the same with your outlook should also then sync those same with your PC using Outlook.  I've done teh iPhone side of this, but I since I don't run Lookout for my email client, I'm not sure how that will work on the PC side.
