My iMac 2006 had a crashed Lion and now does not accept any Lion installation.

Hi
I have tried to install my Lion from an external drive. This drive has basic Lion on it and runs great with my iMac.
However installing the Lion on my iMac fails constantly. I have reviewed the installation protocol and can not find a clue. It seems as if the drive was wrong but the disc checker does not find a clue when it is empty. I did several partition processes and deleted it with various methods. However a volume of 310 MB was always left, although hidden to me.
When I checked the protocol some errors occur. I can not judge, which critical at all. However this ReportCrash could be a hint.

Hi
The problem was a hard drive with a bad storage area.
I replaced the hard drive with an external drive and boot the OS X from there.
Now all is good.
That was solved a year ago.
Thanks for being patient.

Had to reinstall adobe and it does not see any scanner/printer

Had to reinstall adobe and now it does not see my printer/scanner. Help?

Traviss98901234 what Adobe software or service is your inquiry in reference to?

Wifi was working, and now does not discover any networks

I had wifi working, and now it does recognize any of the 6 networks that everything else discovers, any sugestions?
I read all related posts, did the software update to latest version, restarted several times, and did wifi reset. Actually my statmenet above is not entirely true. It does discover the network and connects when I place the device on top of a router, but moving to 50cm away from it and the connection disconnects and there are no networks discovered. I have tried it with 2 different routers, both of them are working well with my blackberry and laptop - and this was also working with the ipad before.

Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo.
If this does not work, then restore the iPad to its factory settings and start again.

Hello, delete all of my iphone 3G SHSH and now does not work. any help?

hi, my iphone 3g not reading, accidentally delete all SHSH, i nedd help.

If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
If it's happening on all apps including Apple's, then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I have upgraded my OS into Mountain Lion and now I cannot see any net storage disks. may someone help me? thanks

Hi kiwirudy,
I've had the same problem more than once since I started trying to download my 14 April purchase of OS X Mountain Lion.
I found a property list called manifest.plist in my ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder which had a Boolean property called failed checked. I unchecked it and afterwards I was able to resume my download.
Here are some steps I've found useful:
Close the Mac App Store.
make a copy of the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder. For some strange reason the Mac App Store likes to just delete it in some circumstances, which will mean that one has to start one's download again from the very beginning.
Double click on the manifest.plist in one's ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder.
This should open it in Property List Editor.
Expand all the nodes (holding down the alt key and clicking on the highest collapsed node should do it.
Find a key called failed of type Boolean and uncheck it.
Save the manifest.plist and close it.
Open the Mac App Store.
The red message "an error has occured" should now be gone and one should be able to resume one's download.
In the event that the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder gets deleted:
start the download again (it will start from the beginning), pause it and close the Mac App Store.
copy your backup copy of the pkg file back to its sub-folder (it's a numbered folder in the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder).
Open the Mac App Store and resume your download.
It should continue from where it left off.
This has worked for me so far. I'm holding my breath. Don't know if I'll still be alive when it's finished.
Regards
Nic

I downloaded lion and cloud does not show up in my system preferences. Not sure how to get started without finding icloud., I downloaded lion and cloud does not show up in my system preferences. Not sure how to get started without finding icloud.

I just downloaded lion and cloud does not show up in my system preferences. Where is it hiding so I can set up icloud and see what lion is offering that is different from snow leopard.

I purchased Lion on the app program but that did not seem to update my software or my operating system. Curious. It showed up on my menu bar saying it was downloading then disappeared. I can't seem to find it anywhere. Suggestions where I should look to make sure it is installed (which clearly it isn't)
Thanks Roger

Interesting. Googling, I see that someone posted that on these discussions as well:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3331216?start=0&tstart=0
which mentions what I recall: that Airdrop (as implemented by Apple) would create an on-demand ad-hoc Wi-Fi connection, even if you were already connected to an access point. Normally, you can't connect to multiple Wi-Fi networks, thus the reason for Airdrop only supported on newer Wi-Fi chips.
And Apple's KB:

Hello, I'm using Mountain Lion and mail does not leave the mails on the server, either on iCloud nor on other suppliers (orange). They are both using iMap protocol... Any place where I could change this ? Thanks for any hall; Christian

Under what circumstances does mail "not leave the mails on the server"?
If you mean that you delete them (or move them out of the inbox) on one device and then find them not in the inbox on the server when you look from another device, that's how IMAP is supposed to work. (Note that the deletion or moving might be the result of rules you have set up in Mail.)
If you mean something else, please explain your issue in more detail.

Not just a language issue...
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching your billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations."

only solution (compromise) which I found is to disconnect and reconnect the PC unit; Windows runs properly after the surgery to close it; next morning found the same problem...

Upgrade to media source 5 and now does not recognize my Zen Touch player!?

JUpgrade to media source 5 and now does not recognize my Zen Touch player!
st off, I was having issues with mp3's transferring to my zen touch, it would say file cannot transfer, invalid format or something of the like.. The creative audio converter would not allow the file to be converted as it said the source was not availble, all odd as the files worked fine on my computer and were mp3 format. I did get them to transfer after downloading another 3rd party converter, I wanted to get past using another program though so I updated to media source 5, along with firmware updates to most recent for the zen touch.
Once I had updated it would not recognize my player, I opened version 3.xxx whatever and it did recognize. Thinking maybe it has an issue with both being installed I unistalled the old version. Same problem, still does not see my player. I upated the driver for the player as well, and my computer now could see the zen touch instead of unknown usb device, media source 5 no go still at this point. I opened windows media 0 and it saw the player and I could transfer files, but the lay out and editing cababilities are limited.
Basically I want to know what to do get this thing detected so I can use media source 5 to organize my files. Someone please help me.

N Oh how I love the beauty of forums! Fantastic. So you know the fix went for my issue here, I had already upgraded the zen/jukebox driver to version 2.0 to no avail, and did not get the play for sure firmware as it says all data will be lost, but I did upgrade with the other option on the support downloads section before as well to no avail. Thanks to?GuyGraham, after I installed the app update for Creative ZEN and NOMAD Jukebox Plugin 5.00.22 for Creative MediaSource 5 Player/Organizer it works once again!! I just do not see how this file isn't included with the media source 5 application in the first place. Either or thanks a lot you guys, problem sovled!
