Mavericks upgrade -- USB 3.0 only at 480Mb
On my early 2011 macbookpro, Mavericks upgrade from Mountain Lion seems to have slowed my usb 3.0 speed.
Though it says 3.0, speed is maxing out at 480Mb.
Blackmagic speed test confirms.
I've tried this with two different Toshiba usb.3.0 drives.
They worked nice and fast in Mountain Lion.

I see the same thing. You have an external USB3.0 hub but the 2011 only has USB2.0
USB3 is backwards compatible.
I can not justify what you thought you say before you upgrades to Mavericks.
Here is what I see on my 2012:

Connectivity speed plummet after Mavericks upgrade
I ran a speed test from my iMac (2.66 GHz Intel core 2 Duo) after Mavericks upgrade and I'm only getting 0.06 Mbps download over 5g WiFi with a 20 Mbit Time Warner Turbo Cable account.
The App Store app seems not to respond either when attempting to download updates.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.I have experienced the same issues since the official release of Mavricks. I have even had my cable provider out to swap my modem. In all of my testing... the issue is clearly Mavricks. I have incredable speeds on all devices exept my mac no that Mavricks was installed.
We are talking a 500-700% difference in speeds. This was not always the case and has only been an issue on the 1 machine since the upgrdade.
When I find that my speeds are crippled, a restart of the wifi adapter will usually fix the issue for the time being. It WILL return with in a few hrs to 24 hrs.... unacceptable in my book.
I have since upgraded another mac on my network and we will see if it suffers the same fate. -
After Aple support downloaded the new 10.9.2 Maverick upgrade on my MacBook Air, my Photosmart C4480 3 in 1 printer can not scan a document and load the file on to my desktop or document file. (You can see the doc image in the preview but it doesn't save it.) Does anyone know an Apple fix for this or when the fix will be out? After hours of trying reloading, and the usual fixes, etc. Apple told me to call HP, and HP told me they don't support Mac. It does not seem honorable of Apple to put out an upgrade and not tell people it will destroy their scanning ability, and that the only thing to do is to buy another printer/scanner.
Have you tried using Applications/Image Capture to scan.

IMovie Issue after Mavericks upgrade
I upgraded my iMac 2009 to Mavericks today. I updated all the user accounts for format changes to Mail, iPhoto and iMovie. What a pain. I don't recall this being an issue before (I was running Lion) but iMovie now only lets one user run iMovie at a time. A dialog pops up stating "You can't open the application "iMove.app" because someone else is using it. Ask the other user to quit the application, and then try again." Was this always like this? It's kind of funny to have an app that behaves like this. Does anyone know what wrong? Operator or System error? Thanks.
Update Saturday Jan 4, 2014
Before my Mavericks upgrade on my Mac Pro, no problems ever (use my Mac 4-8 hours a day) using my Bose Companion 5 USB connected speakers. I've tried shutting the Mac down and plugging the Bose USB cable into another open USB port = no joy and other combinations. I tested the same Bose Companion 5 USB speakers on two other laptops with NO issues (ouch...they were running Windows 7) I have deleted the two .plist files, did the CMD+OPT+P+R reset, etc... = no change. Looked into Midi Audio Setup and did not see anything in there to change even though I tried a couple of things and no avail (there was no Garageband setting/entry).
I still get a solid "BEEEEEEEEP" sound every 20+ seconds, when the sounds tries to toggle, by itself, between the Bose USB Audio device and the Internal Speakers. -
I keep getting an error after downloading the Mavericks upgrade
I have a 2011 mac mini running Lion 10.7.5 that I want to upgrade to mavericks. I have not had it very long so I hardly have anything on it. I have downloaded and installed all of the updates and verified that the hdd is ok and downloaded the free Mavericks upgrade then when it finishes the 5.30 gb file download I get an error and a cancel or retry option. Did this 3 times. I would appreciate any help or ideas that anyone can suggest. Thanks
HI, Thanks for asking but although i can use wifi, I made sure that I am using the wired ethernet for the upgrade. It will complete the download but just as soon as it completes the 5.30 gb file that is when I get the error. I think that I have everything covered on the check list as far as preparing it for Mavericks. I have no hardware hooked up to it only usb keyboard and bluetooth mouse. I even unhooked the super drive. After doing some checking I'm not so sure that the upgrade is worth it. I have a program I want to install that says requrements are Mac OSX 10.8 or higher that is why I wanted to do it but the majority or people seem to be having serious issues with Mavericks. I'm starting to think it may not be worth the trouble. Thanks for your reply

Hi.
I have started OS X Mavericks update(Version 10.9.1), but than have read that many users have many issues after installing it.
Now I want to cancel the upgrade, but can only suspend and resume the upgrade.
Is there any posibility to cancel the upgrade or kill the upgrade process?
Thanks and regards.Stefan Fachmann wrote:

If you are downloading the Mavericks update, then you have installed the Mavericks Upgrade (10.9.0)? If so, then your ability to sync contacts and calanders via usb has already gone.

Massive Battery Drain After Mavericks Upgrade on 11" 2013 MacBook Air?
I got my Air about month before Mavericks came out and the battery life was amazing on it. I was easily getting 14-10 hours of life using Chrome and Air Mail App, along with Power Point and MS Word. After the upgrade to Mavericks, it was slow but I started to notice that my battery life during classes was draining so much faster than before and I had not added anything 3rd party software, just the upgrade. I am now down to about 3.5 - 4.5 hours of battery life doing about the same things as before the upgrade. I did a couple of apps and I added (Sims 3 game). However, I have yet to touch it because of the diminished battery life.
I have included a copy of my Etrecheck, can somone take a look and let me know if you think I need to clean something off?
I did do the SMC reset and that seemed to to give a little juice (like putting new tire on your car but still not where it was before the Mavericks upgrade) as I am up to about 6 hours of battery life after the SMC reset.
Please let me know what other information you might need from me that would help and thank you so much!!

Not sure why but I had a hard time finding all of the related files to get rid of Origin. But I think I finally got them. I just uninstalled Flash and Chrome. I don't like Safari but all well. I suppose I can deal with it it until Apple fixes this battery issue and then maybe I can go back to Chrome. Safari isn't too happy with certain websites, under the Preferences/Security there is an error message that reads "Google Safe Browsing Service Is Not Available. Has not been updated in 8 days."
Haven't noticed a change in battery since doing all of this so let me know if it will take a couple of days to reset. Or if you see anything else that I can do to help. Thank!

Lost all my photos in a guest account after Mavericks upgrade!! Retrievable?
Did the mavericks upgrade last night and I remember having to logout on the guest account and a window popped up that said I would lose all files if I logged out ..
I did not realize that meant all photos in Iphoto...
It was to be a long upgrade so I went to bed ..
This am ,I logged in my admin. acct and everything seemed to be in place including photos..
I logged in to the guest account and opened iphoto and was shocked to see there were no albums or photos there..
I did NOT do a back-up prior to the upgrade ,,,my BAD!!
Is it possible to recover the photos????
If so,could it be explained in total layman's terminology..
Thanks in advance for reading and hopefully helping>>As you have discovered, the guest account doesn't save files, which is how it is designed to work. To make the library accessible from the guest account, you can move the library to the hard drive level User/Shared folder (see next post), which will make it accessible by all accounts. You will then need to tell iPhoto where to look for the library.

Move your iPhoto library to a new location
You can move your entire iPhoto library to a different computer, a hard disk, or another location on your computer.
Important: Before you move your iPhoto library, it’s a good idea to back it up to a DVD or external hard disk.

Move your iPhoto library
If you’ve created multiple photo libraries, be sure to move only the library currently displayed when iPhoto is open. To move a different library, you first need to switch to it.
Quit iPhoto.
In the Finder, choose your home folder (it’s usually named after you).
Open the Pictures folder (in the home folder) to locate the iPhoto Library file.
Drag the iPhoto Library file to a new location on your computer.
Open iPhoto.
In the window that appears, select the library you want, and then click Choose. -
Mavericks upgrade from Mountain Lion deletes all user accounts
This is a lesson for upgrading too early (and too eagerly).
Today I tried the Mavericks upgrade from Mountain Lion on my 2007 Macbook Pro, after going through all the pre-installation/pre-upgrade checklists.
I don't think I have gone from a very high to a down low in such a short space of time. I really wanted to move on from Mountain Lion and when the installer finished the upgrade to Mavericks and re-started my MBP, I was super excited. When the restart completed and I was presented with the login prompt, I tried entering my user name and password. First time, it shaked on the password... OK, you'd think that is a typo. Re-entering the password... same thing.
You can imagine what ensued. After entering my password v-e-r-y slowly many times, I started realising that something went very VERY wrong.
Just for information, I used two different user accounts on my MBP under Mountain Lion. The one account had administrative priviledges and was only used for installing applications and a few other administrative tasks. Then I have a second personal account, which does not have administrative priviledges and is the account I use daily for Mail, Safari, iTunes, programming etc.
None of those accounts worked under Mountain Lion. Basically, there is no way in.
I then proceeded to boot with the startup option Cmd + S (command-line access). Once that was completed, I was in as root and checked the /etc/passwd. None of the user accounts were there. I was only able to find two user accounts: root and nobody; and a long list of user account that started with an underscore (I think these are some sort of esoteric user accounts). So, it appears that the Mavericks upgrade did not accurately bring over the user account information from my Mountail Lion installation.
Then, I went into the /Users directory and there I could see the home directories for all the users as they were defined under Mountain Lion. The contents were intact too.
It seems to me that the Mavericks upgrade from my Mountain Lion forgot to bring over the user accounts but it did preserve the contents of all the users' home directories.
Unless anyone can spot some sort of user error here (please let me know), I am heading back to Mountain Lion pretty swiftly. Otherwise, I suspect there is a bug in the Mavericks installer.
Any assistance is appreciated.The reason this occurred is a mystery and has not been commonly reported. Consider the following. It may or may not help. You should probably print these instructions before proceeding.
Boot Single User mode again and do the following:
(You can skip the first step. It will check your boot volume for errors and correct what it can. If there were errors the installer should not have proceeded, but the possibility exists that directory corruption may have occurred during installation. That seems unlikely to me but could explain what went wrong.)
In Single User Mode:
At the :/ root# prompt, type fsck -fy and press Return or Enter. It will take a few moments to complete. If you are concerned that nothing is happening just press the Return key until you see the :/ root# prompt again.
Once the disk check is complete and the prompt returns, type mount -uw / and press Return / Enter.
Type launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.opendirectoryd.plist and press Enter. If you get an error message you may ignore it.
Type ls /Users and press Enter. All of the usernames on the computer will be listed, which is helpful if you don’t know or remember what these are.
Type dscl . passwd /Users/username password while replacing username with one of the users displayed in the previous step and replacing password with the new password of your choice. Press Enter. You will likely get an error message about a file or directory not being found. You may ignore this.
Type reboot and press Enter. -
HP all-in-one c301 will not save scanned doc in Mavericks upgrade
I have recently installed the free OS X Mavericks upgrade to my Macbook Pro. My HP all-in-one c301 will scan, but the scans do not save. The saved pdf looks like a bunch of gray lines when I reopen the saved file. Has anyone already found a work around? Unless I missed a webpage, HP does not have drivers or apps for Mavericks at this time.
It seems that nearly everything related to any imaging has stopped working with the new OS. (This situation is not good for someone who uses their system for photography related work only.)Since maybe 1 in 10,000 are having such experiences, we have to guess that there is something wrong/corrupted in your Mac's Mavericks install. This happens (just slightly) more often, now that everything is downloaded from the internet.
Try some generic repair steps:
1) Restart in Recovery mode and use Disk Utility to repair the hard drive and permissions.
OS X: About OS X Recovery
(Just read the first paragraph about how to get into Recovery)
2) Download and install the 10.9.4 COMBO update (this isn't from Software Update - it replaces all the files from all the updates)
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1755
3) Reset the Printing System, and re-add the printers (& scanners)
OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
You should experiment and see if things improve after each step. -
Problems after Mavericks upgrade
A few days ago, I installed the latest Mavericks upgrade. I now cannot access the app store, which opens but doesn't show any icons or information - the pages are just blank. Safari is also not working properly - it won't recognise the certificates from any secure sites, including this forum. Facebook won't load properly, it only shows the bare html page. I've tried restoring the system from a previous backup, but this doesn't work. Can anyone help?
Hi everyone,
i have a solution!
well at least that worked for me.
It is nothing like a bug or software problem. It is just that after mavericks install for some reason i found a change in my Preview app preferences. So i set it correctly and now everything is back and working correctly.
Go to the Preview Preferences, then choose the "Images" section/tab, then choose "Size on screen equals size on printout" option, and thats it!
Try this out and I hope this works for you too! -
Mavericks upgrade...lost my 2nd monitor
Need help. Just upgraded to Mavericks. I've been using a 2nd 23" Cinema Display w/o problems with my MacBookPro. After the upgrade, the 2nd display only shows the background and tool bar at the top. No desktop icons, no Dock, and the cursor is also gone. Is this a common problem? What can I do to get the 2nd display to behave as the Principal display? Thanks
Duh...had to enable "Mirror displays".....all is well. Sorry to have bothered you folks.

Why is Time machine backup not working after Mavericks upgrade?
Why is Time machine backup not working after Mavericks upgrade?
I had the same problem due to the Fire Wire port. Apple tested it told me it is OK!, I tried a new cable, and have tested both ports on my back up device. I find it strange that as soon as I installed Mavericks. The drive does work using USB. It could be a coincidence, I don't absolutely know at this point, my back up drive ports could stop working, but I doubt it!

Does Adobe CS6 now work after Mavericks upgrade? I know people were having problems.
I have been told that CS6 does not work with the new Mavericks upgrade. Apple Support Chat were very helpful. Advised to contact Adobe. Wondered what other people have discovered so far. Thanks in advance people!
We have CS6 on multiple iMacs in our department at work with Mavericks. No problems running any CS6 applications at all.
We have only run into one problem with Acrobat Pro X after installing Creative Cloud, that every time we start that app, it asks for the CS6 license number. Thus we have stopped using it for Acrobat Pro XI.
