Safe to upgrade to lion
I know I have left it late to upgrade to Lion, but I would like to take advantage of some of the lion only apps.
My woory is that the apps I currently have will be deleted/damaged/Or I have to pay for the same software just for Lion?
These are the apps I currently have on SL 10.6.8 (2.8GHz, 4GB 1067 Mhz DDR3)

Stay on 10.6.8, a lot of those won't work with Lion or the bugs haven't been worked out completely yet.
It's ok, Lion doesn't offer much actually, Apple keeps sweetening the pie for users, but the reality is a LOT of software doesn't work with 10.7, (perhaps lots of developers are leaving the platfrom because they think Apple is going to mandate all programs go through the MacAppStore (aka 30%)?) so it's rather unclear what they all are going to do or adjust to this new reality.
When the shift is complete, the dust settles and all your software is bug free and stable, then I would consdier upgrading if you have a powerful machine to Lion, or simply wait until you need a new piece of hardware.
There is no rush, 10.8 is going most likely to be even more of a drastic change than 10.7 and perhaps that comes out next spring. A year and a half from now as a new version of OS X released every two years it seems.
You can't leap unless your necessary third party software is ready, for what remains unclear, the Lion UI screams all touchpad type computers. You might want to switich to another option to keep using a desktop UI as Apple keeps abandonding the pro market.

Is this a "safe" way to upgrade to lion and transfer apps/data to new imac?
I have an older imac running 10.6.8 and I am considering buying a new one.
I read a link with guidleines to upgrade to lion. My question is:
After upgrading to lion, I am going to buy a new imac and want to move to the new imac with the least inconvenience. I have a lot of music app/usb interfaces so the time to reconfigure everything would be very time consuming.
So is the "safe" way to do it?
Do a time machine backup of current configuration.
Follow the link I saw outlining upgrading from 10.6.8 to lion on my current imac.
Get everything working again on the current imac with mountain lion.
Do a time machine backup of the lion configuration.
Get the new imac and on first boot, elect to restore from the time machine backup wiping out what came installed on the new imac.
Another time machine backup on the new imac.
I should be done?
or is there a better /safer way?
I have been putting this off for almost year because of the number of apps I am running and devices I have connected. a short list.
file servers off firewire 800 and 400 ( I know I will need the thunderbolt to firewire adapters).
approx 12-18 usb devices all connected either directly or daisy chained through usb controllers connected to usb controllers.
about 10 external USB drives.
vmware
midi interfaces for piano/guitar.
m-audio fast track ultra
multiple DVD/blu-ray reader/writers
Hence my concern for a smooth transition
thanks in advance.There is really no need to update the older iMac running 10.6 to Lion, especially if you have multiple backups of your User Data. You can easliy move or migrate data from any one of your External HDs or Server to the new iMac.
As for your current iMac:
If you plan on selling the older iMac, Lion is not transferable and you will want to sell it with a clean install of 10.6 and let the new owner upgrade.
If you plan on keeping the older iMac around for others to use and it supports Mountain Lion, then in my humble opinion Mountain Lion is the better upgrade.
As for your other devices:
• Yes, Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter
• Yes, external USB 2.0 and 3.0 devices are backwards compatible
• Sorry, I don't use vmware
• Sorry, I don't use midi interfaces
• Sorry, I don't use m-audio
• Yes, my external DVD drives work with various Mac's running 10.6 thru 10.8
Sorry I can't better answer your Audio questions. If no one else comes along with the answers here, then you might try starting another ASC question focused on those transitions. -

Yes, it is. But not all 3rd party plugs are compatible yet and fail AU validation.

I hope someone out there has the expertise to tell me what I am doing wrong. I expect a learning curve from a new Mac operating system, but I don't expect weeks of problem solving and glitches. Lion...well, they won't let me use that word.
Since I "upgraded" to Lion, when I hit "sync" in iTunes on the computer, I get one of three things: 1. Nothing happens, or: 2. A message appears that there is not sufficient room on the Nano for the changes, which is not true, or: 3. It syncs down to next to nothing on the Nano and I have to hit revert.
Sometimes I'm confronted with a screen that wants me to check or uncheck each and every album (but not songs) that I want synced. I have already kept up to date a more specific and complete list of the same sort elsewhere in iTunes: the "Music" list in my itunes "Library." Today I unchecked some songs and checked some others expecting to easily have the corresponding changes made on my iPod, as I have for years. This is the list that I have refined over the years based on new music acquired, my changing tastes, and room left on the iPod. Am I really expected to duplicate this process on another list only to end up with no options for individual songs I do, or do not, want synced? What is the purpose of this exercise?
I finally got it to upgrade to iTunes 10.6.3. I was repeatedly getting a message in iTunes that there was an upgrade available. I would hit upgrade within that mesage in iTunes. It would go through the process of checking for new software and then tell me my software was up to date. (I was running iTunes 10.6 (40).) Software update also told me my software was up to date. I had to go to the Apple site to find and download and install iTunes 10.6.3. The change made no difference to the above problem. I'm not used to screw-ups like this from Apple.
I can't think of a single change in Lion that I like. Not one. I hate the new calendar. I hate the new Safari, and I hate the new Mail. I hate the combination of Google search and the address bar. I hate the way hiting a hot link in Mail opens a new tab in Safari instead of a new window. And the number of hassles and fixes and problems to be solved in the move from Snow Leopard to Lion has been like nothing I have experienced before on a Mac.
An iMac and a laptop are not iOS devices. And iPads and iPhones are not laptops or desktops. To try to merge the operating systems is a major error in my opinion. Thanks for putting up with my rant. I never expected to be so frustrated by a Mac "upgrade." And I've been using Macs a log time. Any advise would be apreaciated.
"Shinwell Johnson"In lieu of relaxing on Sunday, I've been working on this.
I tried launching Thunderbird (TB) in TB's "Safe Mode". This launches TB like it's being used for the first time - and it didn't crash, which got me hopeful.
So I deleted the TB profile folder and the TB preference file from the ~/Library folder. Then I manually copied them over from my old Mac to my new Mac - figuring that maybe something got damaged by Migration Assistant. After I installed all of the TB files and folders into the right places in my ~/Library folder, I rebooted the Mac (just to be safe) and tried to launch TB - and it crashed upon launching, with essentially the same crash log as shown above.
So it looks like there is something in my TB Profile that Lion doesn't like (but that Snow Leopard was fine with).
Any suggestions for how to find and fix/remove the offending item? Is there something I could search for in the crash log that would point me to the offending item? -
I had been holding off upgrading to Lion because of the bad press, but discovered that I could no longer receive email on my Mac because my iPhone had been moved to iClound by an Apple tech when it had to be replaced, and my Snow Leopard version wouldn't support iCloud. So I upgraded to Lion and immediately began having trouble. First I was told that several of my software applications were incompatible and had been removed. Then I discovered that Safari (apparently the latest version 5.1.3) had lost functionality. I can't attach anything to my emails and the search window is grayed out and inoperable. Is there a fix or do I need to retreat to Snow Leopard? Bob Kellam

This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
As Guest, test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2. -
I have a mid 2010 Macbook Pro running Snow Leopard and foolishly upgraded to Yosemite. Now have numerous problems. Is it possible to go back in time with Time Machine and reinstall Snow Leopard? Then upgrade to Lion or Mavericks? Any other ideas on how I can exit Yosemite?
Once you get yourself back to Snow Leopard, if you still want to upgrade somewhat, I would suggest the following:
1. Get an external hard drive that you can use for experiments with new OS versions. You could partition it into 2 or 3 partitions. You could then clone your existing Snow Leopard system to one partition using Carbon Copy Cloner (well worth $40) or SuperDuper ($25).
2. Buy OS X Mountain Lion for $20, through the Apple online store (I don't think it's available through the App Store). Apple has decided to make it very difficult for anyone to get Mavericks unless they have already downloaded it.
You will receive two e-mails from Apple, one containing a PDF with a redemption code, and one with the password you will need to unlock the PDF. Using the code, you will download Mountain Lion from the App Store, where it will appear among your Purchased items.
After ML finishes downloading, its installer app will launch itself. When you see this launch screen, QUIT the install app immediately! Go to your applications folder, find the Install OS X Mountain Lion app, and copy it to a safe location outside of your Applications folder. Keeping one or more copies will allow you to reinstall without unnecessary aggravation if you later need or want to do that. At this point, you can re-launch the Installer in the Applications folder and let it run. You can install it on a clean partition on your external HD, or you can allow it to upgrade the Snow Leopard clone you created on your external drive, or you can do both. This should allow you to test how everything works for as long as you like.
3. If you left yourself a free partition on your test drive, try a clean install of Yosemite and set everything up from scratch (do not migrate anything). This will allow you to see whether your problems with it were related to something in your Snow Leopard system. -
Updated from Leopard to Snow Leopard, then upgraded to Lion, now my system is freezing on startup. Can anyone help?
Try a Safe Boot: Restart holding down the shift key until you (hopefully) see a grey progress bar. Once booted restart as normal from the Apple menu. Any change?
How much RAM do you have installed? -
Just upgraded to lion 10.7.3 Safari problems. Please help.
Really need help with this one. Yesterday I upgraded to Lion 10.7.3. Safari does not work in my account. When I try to log onto safari it just pulls up a blank page with a spinning beach ball. I logged into a guest accout and it worked fine. Logged into my daughters account and it worked fine, and also works fine in safe mode. Also afer I logged out of safe mode and restarted, Safari worked fine until I quit it and then tryed to log on again. This is driving me crazy. I do have a bootable backup along with time machine back up. Would it be easier to do a full earse of the HD, then install lion. After which I am assuming I could just pull the files off time machine that I want, just photos and videos. Also when I pull up activity monitor it show a webprocess using a 100% of my cpu. In the other accounts this is not a problem.
Are any Safari extensions installed? If so, disable them and try again. If not, proceed as follows.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software -- potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions -- they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are several lines of text in monospaced type, which are UNIX shell commands. They’re harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of running these commands, search this site for other discussions in which they’ve been used without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
To begin, launch the Terminal application; e.g., by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search. A text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” (without the quotes) and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|org\.(x|postfix|ntp|cups)/{print $3}'
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'
Step 4
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta} * L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item'
Remember, steps 1-5 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer -- no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal. -
I upgraded to lion, now that I am restarting my mac, it is asking for a password. mind you i never set a password in the begining.
So i used my start up cd and re set the password and restarted my mac only to be faced with the same delima. user password please.
I am currently in safe mode, otherwise I can't log on to mymac
Please help, anyonethank you to all who responded. the final line was that I had to reboot and loss all of my info.
this was per apple store intelligence. -
I have two mailboxes. My Yahoo mailboxe keep telling me I have the wrong password and the mailbox ap keeps popping up. I believe this is then screwing up my Outlook mailbox which is my work email account. I had it configured fine and then upgrade to Lion. Since upgrading my mailboxes are challenging to keep up and running. Also, when I log in several of my programs autimatically pop up (NEAT, iTunes,etc), kind of like all the ads did when I was using MS. Any ideas of why this is happening? Is it a Lion issue? What can I do to fix?
Hellow keith5000 ,
regarding your issue lets see what we can do to solve this issue.
- have you tried safe boot
safe boot = starting up the mac with the SHIFT- button.
- when entering safe mode you will be able to enter and quick change some settings
now next question do the unwanted aplications still load in safe mode , if so
go to the Apple icon -> System preferences -> user & groups -> login items (top right on the screen from user & groups window) now at login items u can close any unwanted aplications by deleting them or unmarking them
- unwanted aplications will now disapear when starting up your mac os x system
- next issue should be your authentication , this will be a bit more tricky , lets see
same category user & groups and u will see your admin account try seeing if u have enabled the admin account right click on your admin account to see information about it and compare it if your info is correct , next see if you have authorized your admin account to write & read.
if these still don't work , make a test account to see if this problem is user wide or system wide. -
Can a 2009 iMac11,1 be upgraded to Lion?
I have a 2009 iMac that I have tried previously to upgrade to Lion. I remember that it was severly unsuccessful. I do not remember why. Before I try again, I wanted to ask the community about their experiences with the upgrade. My hardware data is as follows:
Model Name: iMac
Model Identifier: iMac11,1
Processor Name: Intel Core i7
Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 4
L2 Cache (per core): 256 KB
L3 Cache: 8 MB
Memory: 8 GB
Processor Interconnect Speed: 4.8 GT/s
Boot ROM Version: IM111.0034.B02
SMC Version (system): 1.54f36
I do remember that I tried both an upgrade and a fresh install, but both were unsuccessful. Problem is that there are games and software that are coming out now that are only compatible with 10.7. It is time to get up to date, but either I get an dupgrade working or I buy a new iMac. Buying one just for the upgrade, seems a little counter customer centric.CyberKen wrote:
For a business running on Mac, this is a little painful.
Very painful, it was even worse as Apple wasn't releasing security updates for older operating systems.
A few days after 10.7 was released there was a root cert update for 10.7 and 10.6, but 10.5 and 10.4 didn't get it or any Java updates.
A year later there is a 600,00 strong Mac botnet making hackers over $10,000 a day in ad revenue, just a few days ago on May 15 Apple finally released a update for 10.5 Intel machines only. PPC is finished, they likely dumped all the boxes into the dumpster a long time ago.
However I think they learned their lesson about ignoring older OS X versions, and other things as they are doing a better job now of being proactive. The next version I suspect is being heavily tested on older hardware before release unlike 10.7 which was just dumped on the public.
So if your on 10.6 you can be likely be safe now leaving it as such for quite some time as Apple has changed their tune a little, rather have you come back as a hardware customer rather than as a hate filled guy who just had his bank accounts robbed and looking to sue. -

Did all of that yesterday, with the Apple Representative on the phone, and nope, still a problem...it was kind of exciting, really, they kept going up and up the tiers of support until I got disconnected...Fortunately I had the email address of the gentleman who was helping me so that I could email him back and let him know that we got disconnected...as you might imagine, he still has not emailed me back. They were able to receive a copy of the form that I use for charting and try it in their facility on their computers, so we know:
1- it is not just my computer.
2- it occurred only after installing Lion OS X, not sure if they have tried it on Snow Leopard, but that's what I would have done if I was them...assuming that somewhere in Apple someone has not upgraded to Lion.
3- it is not just my software.
I think the problem is with the newer iteration of Preview not communicating well with the Adobe .pdf. probably some line of coding that needs to be written and insertedinto their program for multiline text.

Since I upgraded to Lion, my computer (iMac mid 2010) intermittently freezes.
Since I upgraded to Lion 10.7.3, my computer (iMac mid 2010) intermittently freezes. The mouse moves, but I can't do anything. I can unfreeze it every time by calling up the Force Quit box and then excaping out. I've tried everything (all upgrades installed including firmware, new version of Flash), but it still freezes. Any help is appreciated.
There are a couple of things to do. First is restart in the Recovery Partition and repair Disk Permissions in Disk Utility and Repair the Disk. How you do this is when you hear the startup tone hold down the Option key and choose the Recovery Partition. Choose Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions at least twice. Then while you are in DU run Repair Disk twice. Quit Disk Utility and restart however restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches, it's possible one or more has become corrupt. After it has fully restarted then restart normally and test.
If you get the same behavior post back to try some other items.
BTW how much Free RAM does the machine have. You can find this out in Activity Monitor which is in Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor and click the System Memory tab. -
Time Machine and Upgrade to Lion
At our office we have a Mac mini Model A1347. It was running Snow Leopard. We went to do some updates and the computer started to lag really bad. We ended up booting in Safe Mode only to find that Disk Utility said the ServerHD drive was failing.
So we replace both drives and now I am trying to figure out what to do. We can´t find our install disks for Snow Leopard. We were wanting to upgrade to Lion so can I:
install Lion
download the Server App from the Appstore
Restore from Time Machine backup
then have everything running ok, or will the upgrade to Lion mess up our Server settings we had before?
Thanks for your help!Your network drive isn't compatible with Lion. See #C16 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.

No sound on cold start after upgrading to Lion
I am running the 27" iMac with dual hard drives and have recently upgraded to Lion. Two things are happening.
1. On cold start / boot up, my system has no sound. And by no sound I mean - no sound. When I go to the Sound option in System Preferences, everything is greyed out and I can not adjust or access any of the controls. The only solution has been to immediately restart my computer. After restart, everything is fine.
2. On cold start / boot up, sometimes I receive a pop up telling me that TestGen is not installed properly and to please re-start. Of course, since I have no sound I'm automatically doing that. Could be that these to things are related somehow? I don't know.
Lastly, and I'm not adding this to the list because there is already a thread about it . . but I will mention it . . I am getting error messages trying to play certain videos "This video requires Quicktime which is not supported by this version of iTunes." Oh yeah? Since when? The workaround is that you apparently have to delete the video from your Library -- DO NOT DELETE FILE FROM HARD DRIVE -- and re-add to your Library. I think this has to be the dumbest bug out there right now.
But what I'd really like is to not have to re-start my computer every d$!@n time just to be able to have sound.
Tired of the Lion errors. Apparently we're all Beta testers <-- lame humor.I have one of the Mid 2010 27-inch iMac's running 10.7.3 without any audio problems like you describe. You mentioned that you have two hard drives. Do you have the factory installed hard drive + SSD, or did you install it yourself?
You mentioned TestGen. What version do you have installed? It appears that the latest version of the TestGen browser plug-in is 7.5.1.
Have you tried resetting PRAM?
Have you tried booting in Safe Mode to see whether booting without all of the extra kernel extensions makes the issue go away? If it does then I would look consider reinstalling Lion and evaluating the various utilities your've installed which may be affecting your audio.
