Please help with osx lion update

why doesn't my osx lion show up after I already installed it? It also never charged me the $30..?, why doesn't my osx lion show up after I already installed it? It also never charged me the $30..?

Well, let's see if we can figure out which OS version you're running: Go to the Apple, click on it, and then on
about this Mac. In the new window, please click on the text underneath the Mac OS X and post it here (if you click on that long enough, you'll get your serial number - don't post that); just post the Version # 10.x.x
Edit: You purchased this new in late 2011? If so, you would already have Lion installed on it....

  • Please help with RAID driver update.

    I need a little help with updating my RAID drivers. I have P55-GD65 motherboard and some SATA2 hard drives connected in RAID arrays. I am running Win7 64bit.
    I already downloaded and installed:
    “Intel P55 AHCI / RAID Drivers Ver: 8.9.0.1023”
    from the MSI support web page. The setup file installed the “Matrix Storage Manager” and  the “Matrix Storage Console”
    On the same web page I see another download link:
    “Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver Ver: 9.5.0.1037”
    It looks like I already installed the manager with the previous driver. Do I need to install this one too? What is the difference between both?
    Also when I open the “Intel Matrix Storage Manager Driver Ver: 9.5.0.1037” I see 2 executable files:
    “iata_cd.exe” and “iata_enu.exe”
    I read the “Readme.txt” provided, but I couldn't find information on what is the difference between the EXE files and which one I should use.

    Use either one.  It doesn't matter in a functional way.

    Your wifi problem sounds very much like the problem I had. The wifi would drop out, the icon showed it was still connected. If I turned it off, I couldn't turn it back on. Another user here pointed me to the problem, which was the wifi cable (the flat cable goint from the card to the motherboard). I found it on ebay for $13 and it's been running fine since I replaced it. This is the repair guide for your machine. The part number will be on there if you click the link.

  • Please help with "You can't open the application NovamediaDiskSupressor because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." I have seen other responses on this but am not a techie and would not know how to start with that solution.

    Please help with the message I am receving on startup ""You can't open the application NovamediaDiskSupressor because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
    I have read some of the replies in the Apple Support Communities, but as I am no techie, I would have no idea how I would implement that solution.
    Please help with what I need to type, how, where, etc.
    Many thanks
    AppleSueIn HunterCreek

    I am afraid there is no solution.
    PowerPC refers to the processing chip used by Apple before they transferred to Intel chips. They are very different, and applications written only for PPC Macs cannot work on a Mac running Lion.
    You could contact the developers to see if they have an updated version in the pipeline.

  • Triple Display Issue with OSX Lion

    I have the following setup:
    iMac OSX (Snow Leopard)
    3.06 GHz Intel Core i3
    4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    500GB Hard Drive
    I have 3 monitors hooked up, one is a 24 inch benQ through mini display with vga and then i have the 21.5 imac and then a 23 inch acer hooked up with an external usb video card usb to dvi. I had this setup before lion was released when i was using snow leopard and it worked perfectly fine, but now with the lion update it does not work the screen just continuiously flickers on and off; i tried swapping monitors and it still doesnt work so it has to do with a possible software issue.
    I have updated to the latest drivers, installed restarted and everything i can think of; does anyone have any suggestions?
    This is a video I made of my issue:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h23Rtkfiuq8&feature=channel_video_title
    If anyone can help i would GREATLY appreciate it!

    I'm pretty sure its not a monitor issue, as the issues vary between monitors
    I'm pretty sure this is a display and adapter and interface problem, especially when the name(s) of your display(s)  show up wrong after sleep.
    The Mac uses one display driver that is highly parameterized. The parameters to be used are set by sending a query to the display for its name and capabilities. This query is sent on the secondary digital data channel, and is sometimes referred to as EDID data.
    Currently both 20's are recognised as 'vga display' or 'color LCD', no resolution options are available, just what it defaults to (640 x 480)
    When the name of the display is not correctly reflected in the name of its Display Preferences pane, that is a direct indication the display-adapter-cable-display part of the chain "dropped the ball" in resounding to the Mac's query for capabilities.
    Adapters that do not pass the EDID data through, and displays that do not answer when queried for their name and capabilities are the primary source of problems. For example, TV sets that are not "paying attention" to the secondary data channel, and therefore do not answer the query, drive Mac users crazy.
    The query is sent in response to four different events:
    • System Startup
    • wake form sleep
    • cable insertion at the Mac-end (not necessarily at the Display-end)
    • The use of the Option-Detect_Displays button in Displays Preferences window

  • Graphic problem with OSX Lion - freezing all windows

    I try to define my graphic problem with OSX Lion. Simply if you have set for example hot cornes and switch between desktop, all windows etc. the move of switchng windows i chopping and freezing. I dont idea why, but it hapennig since I installed Windows 7 via bootcamp. But the problem is still here after I remove Windows. Cleaning cash doesnt work. Can anybody help me please?

    No, it's not Lion. It may be something you installed. If you just bought it you could also take it back to the Apple Store and they may be able to help.

  • I am using a new imac with osx lion 10.7.5 and have bought a copy of Apple iLife 11 on dvd a so that I can install iWeb and idvd, when I click on install iLife I get a message saying "iLife.kpg was signed with an invalid certificate

    I am using a new imac with osx lion 10.7.5 and have just bought Apple iLife 11 on dvd so that I can install iWeb and iDVD, as macs no longer ship with these apps. When I click on install iLife I get a message saying "iLife.kpg was signed with an invalid certificate.
    Next problem is that when moving through the installer and get to custom install, as I only want to install iDVD and iWeb, I am presented with the option to install iDVD, Sounds & Jingles and iWeb, but not sure what is going on with the other 3 options iLife Support etc, they seem to be greyed out but still look like they may install over the top of the newer versions already on my imac. Is it ok for me to just go ahead and hit install? Or do I have a problem?

    Yep, just install iDVD (plus sounds and jingles) and iWeb if you want it (but note that iWeb apparently won't work if you upgrade to Mountain Lion).
    Then use Software Update to get any late iDVD updates.

    cont contact apple server error please help with ipad touch 4. im just fed up with apple please help me because why is it only apple with these kind of problems?

    If you mean updae server
    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem
    Otherwise what server are you talking about

    That would tend to indicate a permissions issues on the computer.
    Running an outdated version of iTunes is of absolutely no benefit.
    All iDevices work with the current version of iTunes.

  • HT5824 I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off..

    I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. I have no problem sending the text messages but I'm not receivng any from iPhones at all. It has been about a week now that I'm having this problem. I've already tried fixing it myself and I also went into the sprint store, they tried everything as well. My last option was to contact Apple directly. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off so that I can receive my texts.

    If you registered your iPhone with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it.  Also, try changing the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage.
