OSX Lion 10.7.4 can't be installed, Can't erase, command button is locked, but disk is found, I'm stack after the agreement page, no partition found

I have a mac-book pro mid 2010, the original mac o.s is version 10.6.3 snow leopard
the hard disk crashed, so i decided to buy another disk, 160gig Sata
i downloaded mac o.s version 10.7.4, and decided to fresh install from a dvd, but durint installation, on disk options, it can't be partition, the command button for partitioning is locked, even in the erase menu bar at mac installation window, and I can't reinstall from version 10.7.4
I've read that when the mac is a mac-book pro on mid 2010, it should used the default mac o.s version.
I'd like to hear some experts here about mac installations,
the hard disk is found, at disk1(only in disk utility option), but it can't be partition or erase, so I can't reinstall a fresh copy of mac.
I'm stuck here:
Part Two: Installing the operating system
   1. When the Mac OS X L.I.O.N Installer screen appears, click Continue.
   2. When the license agreement appears, click Agree.
then can't continue because no disk was found, I have already formatted it with HFS(not HFS+) in the other Unit(using windows macdrive)
but, you think because of the hfs only and NOT hfs+?

I think there's nothing to do with the drive manufacturer,
I used the macDrive for windows, and format it to HFS(not HFS+)
Ok,
Actually I have this folder/files,
InstallMacOSX.pkg (folder)
Inside InstallMacOSX.pkg(folder) it has files:
InstallESD.dmg(using ULTRAISO was burned to dvd)
This files are NOT included in the burn dvd image:
Bom
PackageInfo
Payload
Scripts
This files/folder is outside InstallMacOSX.pkg(folder):
Distribution(file)
[TOC].xml(file)
Resources(folder)
The original .DMG file was MOsXLeoneDieciSetteDue.dmg(but this is fake, it's a Xar compressed)
The valid .DMG file is inside the .XAR, so I extracted it, and found those files and folders.
So, I'll include that in the burned dvd?
thanks

How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver. I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. thanks

How can I play music on my macbook pro (OSX Lion) through a Pioneer receiver? I've connected them with a mini display port to HDMI cable with audio support bought at the Apple Store, but there's no sound coming through. There are 4 HDMI-in ports on the receiver - BD, DVD, DVR/BDR and audio. In my system preferences for sound, the receiver doesn't show up as an output option. Can anyone please advise. (ps, this is my first time posting a question, so I hope I can find your answers!) thanks, JP downunder

For sound, try the audio output port and connecting to the RCA audio input ports on your Pioneer receiver. Use something like this:

Hello. I am running Photoshop CC 2014 on a MAC with OSX LION. I also have Photoshop CS6 installed. When I double-click on a file in Bridge CC, it always opens in CS6. If I say "OPEN WITH Photoshop CC 2014", or if I drag the file directly to CC 2014 in

Hello. I am running Photoshop CC 2014 on a MAC with OSX LION. I also have Photoshop CS6 installed. When I double-click on a file in Bridge CC, it always opens in CS6. If I say "OPEN WITH Photoshop CC 2014", or if I drag the file directly to CC 2014 in the Dock it will open in CC. Since I like to double-click or hit return in the bridge, I am constantly having to wait until the file opens in CS6, quit CS6 an then open it another way to get it into Photoshop CC 2014. I tried to disable CS6 by hiding it, but then double-clicking Bridge did nothing. Any ideas why this is happening?

Check and adjust the File Type Associations in the bridge cc preferences.

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

.xlsm Can't exit design mode because Control 'Command Button 3' can not be created

I have several Windows 7 Enterprise machines that cannot open one .xlsm file properly. When it opens, it is opening in Design mode rather than as a spreadsheet with macros. My users are getting the error "Can't exit design mode because Control
'Command Button 3' can not be created". All our machines have Office 2010 ProPlus, but this file will only open on the XP PC's that have yet to be upgraded. Any ideas?

Hi,
How do you create the button in Excel 2010? Just insert the control manually or insert it using a macro? This issue may be caused by the controls aren't instantiated before you can exit design mode.
Please try the method:
Code can only run after all controls are instantiated and properly connected. Make sure every file needed for the control is available before trying again.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

OSX Lion & Brother Scanner DSmobile 600 will not install driver

OSX Lion 10.7.2
Hardware: Brother DSmobile 600 (USB)
Software Driver: DSmobile600_Mac_1_2_4.dmg (OSX 10.6-10.7)
Scanner driver does not install - Scanner does not work
Procedure
Launch the Brother installer - goes through install procedure - forces a required restart
looked in BotherScanner folder - nothing there
Apparently the installer is not actually installing anything except the folder
Looked at the installer content - cannot see anything to install
Do not have the driver form the old OSX
The Brother DSmobile USB scanner did work in OSX6
Any solutions?

I discovered the asnwer to my own question for the benifit of anyone else.
Turn off all anti-virus software!
If you disable any installed security virus /network software etc., download the latest brother DS600 scanner dirver. the Brother scanning driver will install.
however you may have to run any repair software you have afterwards. e.g. Tech Tool Pro 6 and Cocktail.
The Brother DS600 scannr driver install is kind of rough.
The Brother DS600 Mobile scanner does work in Lion 10.7.2
In addition, the Brother DS600 mobile scanner driver installs in WIN 7. Same scenario turn off all anti-virus software before install. works

Can't see my PDF after the first page when i put the security on!

i have a PDF file protected by password that cause me problems.
If i put security by password on this PDF, and i look at the infos, i found : Encrypted with Acrobat Distiller 9.2.0
But if i don't secure it by password, i got Adobe Distiller.
But the real problem, with security, when i try to see my PDF on a website, il looks like this
If i don't put the security, it is ok, i can see the other pages. In my example, all what you see is the end of the first page, on 30 pages.
Am i the only person with this problem? I'm looking for another version of my acrobat to see if the "distiller" is the same and if i'll get the problem again.
Thanks

OSX Lion, It is slow and really lumpy/jerky Can I revert back to Snow leopard?

Where are Apple?
Had OSXLion for a week and it is nothing like as fast as the last OS, screen changes are really slow and jerky and the whole thing feels slower. Is there anything that I can do, or can I revert back to Snow Leopard?
This is a real shame never had this type of issue with Apple before.

This is a user to user forum. You can only revert to Snow Leopard through your backup. You might attempt piecemeal data recovery after backing up your Lion system, and copying your e-mail folders to IMAP if they weren't stored there before. Spotlight frequently needs to finish updating in the menu in the upper right (it will only have a search field if it is done, and say it is indexing if it is not), or some plugins may need upgrading to be Lion compatible before you upgrade to Lion. See my FAQs*:

Has a fix been posted for OSX Lion causing Invalid Volume counts? Post installing OS Lion the new Recovery volume disabled my ExFAT volume shared with Bootcamp

I'm running a dual boot environment with OSX and Win 7. Before upgrading to OS Lion I had three partitions setup, one for OS SL, WIn7 and a shared ExFAT volume for multual file sharing between the OSs(Worked great!). After upgrading to OS Lion my shared volume was blocked out from Windows but remained visible to Lion. The Partition boundaries appear to be currupted by the newly added "Recovery HD" Partition that comes along with the Lion installation. This inserted volume has also started a chain of error in Disk Untility indicating "Invalid Volume File Counts". This can be cleaned up by Disk Utility using the installation CD or ironically the Recovery HD partition. The repair is only good for one reboot than the invalid Volume error returns. Windows seems fine outside of the lost shared volume but if you try to format the free space left behind by the partition issue major issues happen. Formatted actually creats a Dynamic disk switch and toasts all three volumes. OS Lion seems to be a wounded animal as I now have to reboot twice to get Lion to load up after setting up bootcamp. The problem is the partitions and OS Lion new Recovery HD. What I need is a fix to stabilize the OS Lion partition and restore the shared volume.

There are hundreds of postings describing your error and how to resolve it so I won't rehash those here. Use the search at the top right of this page to search for your error.
But I will advise you that Windows 7 32bit will not work satisfactorily for you. You said you have 8GB ram. 32 bit Windows will not address more than about 2.5GB to 3GB of your ram. You need to install the 64 bit Windows 7 in order for Windows to use all your ram.
When you bought the retail Windows 7 operating system it should have had two disks in the package, one being 32 bit and the other being the 64 bit version of Windows 7.
