Old apps that don't run with Lion

I've just installed Lion in order to use iCloud, quite a few of my apps no longer run, I wondered if it is possible to Partition an external hard drive with the previous os along with my older apps so I can still use them?

Yes.
When you boot hold down the option key to get a list of bootable volumes.  Navigate with the left/right arrows and press return when you highlight the desired boot volume.
Use the Startup Disk ssystem preferences to set which one you want to default to when you don't want to switch boot with the option key.

    Yes, it will do no harm, but it is meant for trouble shooting and you should not have to use it all the time.

  • Old Apps that don't work

    Why are there still some Apps for sale in the App store that have not been updated in 2 years or more ??? And just don't work..

    Hello golosport,
    Do you mean the apps don't work? Or they don't work for iOS 6? There are still a lot of people out there that haven't updated their iOS or iPhones in the past two years either. Especially the old school crowd rockin' the iPhone 3G which can't update past iOS 4.2.1 and even the iPhone with an even older iOS. My thought is the developer of those app for which you speak have interest in keeping their client base with older iPhones. Just my thoughts.
    Regards

  • I have 3 macs. 2 are Lion, 1 I left Snow leopard so I can access data from my old Quicken Application that doesn't work with Lion. If I move to iCloud, will I no longer be able to access my MobileMe email on the Snow Leopard mac?

    What version of word do you have? The TS3938 sounds like it's a PowerPC app- written for an old architecture that is no longer supported in Lion. If this is the case, your files are fine- you just need a newer version of word that will run in Lion in order to open them. The newest version (2011) should be readily available anywhere, and has worked fine for me ever since I switched to Lion on release day....

    How do I get a driver for my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 so that it will run with Mountain LIon?  I tried "Software Update" and says "no update available".  I contacted Epson and was told all driver updates had to be obtained using "Software Update"?

    You will find the latest Epson drivers herehttp://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398.
    If you don't find a driver for your printer in the above, then install the Gutenprint drivers. It supports your model.

  • I'm trying to delete some recently downloaded apps that don't work. They are faded grey and although they shake with the other apps, no cross appears in the top corner. Any ideas anyone? Thanks, Sean

    I have the same issue witha  slight variation.  The app icons that are grayed out and cannot be deleted are DUPLICATES of other apps that I already have.  For instance I now have 2 Redbox apps - one works normally, the other cannot be opened or deleted.

  • Why can't I use my old apps that I purchased on my ipad 1?

    I don't understand why I can't use my old apps that "I" paid for.  They all worked fine until I can no longer update my ipad.  When you purchase software for your computer you can keep using it until your computer dies.  Doesn't seem quite right that suddenly your apps are all gone and you can no longer use them.
    Maybe I'm missing something, but I have the Ipad 1 which is sufficient for me with the Apps I "had" now each time I update and sync I have fewer and fewer apps that actually work.  I think at least I should have the last updated version of the app.

    Don't update....
    Some of these apps may be fixed to be backward compatible.   Until then you will lose apps if you allow updates on the computer and sync to iPad.

    As already provided, if you don't have such in your iTunes library, on your computer, then there is no way to put it back on your phone. Apps are DRM protected, so even if you found a copy somewhere, you wouldn't be able to use it.

  • I have a Novatel U998 Turbo Stick that will not run on Lion because it is designed for 32 bit. HELP

    I have a Novatel U998 Turbo Stick that will not run on Lion. Can Lion be run as 32 bit? If so - how??

    Lion includes a hybrid Kernel, as well 32bit and 64bit core OS. By default it will boot the 64bit part.
    press 3+2  keyboard combo on bootup. This forces 32bit mode for the Kernel ( the apps are still 64bit default ). 6+4 will force 64bit mode.
    The 32bit Kernel can load 32bit drivers ( kernel extensions = *.kext files in /system/library/extensions ).
    The 64bit Kernel will not load any 32bit drivers
    if a Application makes problems in its native 64bit mode, you can force it to run in 32bit compatibility mode by revealing it in Finder, "get-info" on the Apps Icon and checkmark "run in 32bit mode".
    No matter which kernel is booted, 32 or 64 Lion can always execute 32 and 64bit apps.

  • List 3rd party Wi-Fi apps that don't need ANY data plan

    so far, the only one I know of is Live Search
    you can download it here
    (note: in Options, network configuration parameters must be changed to "Direct HTTP" instead of "default" and check "Use only WiFi interface")
    I can't use BlackBerry's "Maps", because I don't have a data plan;  however, the "Traffic" & "Maps" of Live Search is a great alternative!
    if you know of other 3rd party Wi-Fi apps that don't require ANY data plan (APN, BES, MDS, IPPP for BIBS, WAP, etc.), post them here.
    thanks!

  • Apps That Don't Work - Asphalt Racing

    Thanks in advance for your help.....
    I bought and downloaded the Asphalt Racing game from the App store last night and the game gets to the point of you selecting a car and then shuts off. I tried multiple times and also deleted and re-downloaded and still had the problem. Ho do you go about getting refunds for Apps that don't work or is that not a possibility right now?

    Hey dgny06,
    Is this the only app with an issue?
    Try deleting the app from the iPhone and downloading it again.
    You will not be charged for the second download.

  • HT201335 Is there an  app that I can use with apple TV to mirror my older Mac Book Pro ?

    Is there an  app that I can use with apple TV to mirror my older Mac Book Pro mid 2009? If not is there a software patch that will allow me to mirror ?

    In my own opinion it didn't work well enough and I don't use it, I have fairly high standards when it comes to stuff like this. But from what I can gather it seems like it's the best of the rest! many here have said they like it.
    There used to be a trial period, but I couldn't say whether that's still available.
