The Lion is infested with bugs. please clean him up!

1. With natural scrolling activated, the two finger scrolling for volume control in apps like vlc has gotten reversed. Any way to segergate the functions for individual apps?
2. I could , with Snow Leopard, use 3 fingers instead of the up and down arrow keys to move down different contacts in skype and other moves in many apps, it doesn't work with Lion.
3. Smart zoom and Look up doesn't seem to be working.
4. The "Go" keyboard shortcuts work only when the finder window is open. It is helpful only when the keyboard shortcuts are accessible at all times.

I have an MBP with trackpad and just tried my Skype.
One finger slides down the contact list and two fingers scrolls up and down.
Perhaps to play with the settings in System Preferences>Trackpad>Point & Click (Tap to click etc)

Lion Bug List: How come Lion is loaded with bugs?

Here is my shortened list:
Full-screen apps (in full screen mode):
iTunes:
When retrieving the top bar, sometimes only the icons on the right (clock etc.) is shown, and with no gray background.
Safari:
When retrieving the top bar, it often hangs before going back. The buttons do not always respond when passing the cursor over them (cursor changing for no particular reason between arrow and hand).
More annoying is the bug related to Top Sites. Sometimes when entering/exiting Top Sites the whole page is pushed either down or up and it gets stuck there. When pushed down the edit button on Top Site disappears.
Other:
Also the dock sometimes gets stuck when retrieving the it form the bottom or when just switching to a app in full screen mode.
I have had some issues with iPhoto where the page/layout is pushed/dragged and the the top bar is shown.
And of course: Logic Pro does not work properly in full screen mode. When moving to a desktop via Mission Control, Logic moves to that desktop and leaves a blank (gray) full screen window with the Logic icon on. Probable a Logic update is required.
Lauch Pad:
Why do the icons change places after I have put them where I want? Duplicates seems also to be handled slow still, but better than before the last Lion update.
Other:
Sometimes when switching to an app (not full screen) such as Pages, the top left menu bar does not change from its previous state (for instance from Finder to Pages).
In Safari the quit mark (x) in tabs that is supposed to show up when passing the cursor over it, does not always do that. Also the buttons do not always respond when passing the cursor over them.

The list can go on and on for any newly developed/released software or product of the known defects. Apple is, I'm sure, still workign out the kinks in this system as would any other company. Take for example the first edition of a car. The second generation of that particular model is an improved version of the first. To work out the kinks they need to test out the first one to figure out what's wrong.
To help you solve your issues, I would recomend checking software update weekly for any available updates that may sovle your issues.
I know I didn't directly solve your problem but I figured I would lend a little hand on the explenation if you wanted.

Help with Bugs, Please!!!

To make a long story short,
I first was having problems (still am) with "core audio overload", I would play a project then boom error. Sometimes this happens every few seconds which makes it impossible to do anything and makes you look like an idiot when you are showing someone your progress.
I get the error even with only a few recorded instruments. I always hit option x to get the status bar for the CPU and DISK. The CPU and disk run really low (maybe 5-10%) with all of the songs I work on, then I get an error after which the CPU spikes. I have changed all of the different audio settings some have helped a little.
I have tried to play the sample songs that Logic came with specifically the Shiny Toy Guns - LeDisko and it happens with that song too. I saved the project to my hard drive thinking the issues was having it on the CD. It still does not play without the overload error. I would think a 3.0ghz MacPro with 6Gb of RAM and 500Gb HD X4 (OS on one and logic files on another hard drive) would be able to handle this?!?
I have done a lot of different searches on different boards and it seems like I need to wait for an update. Anyone have something to try?
The next thing that has happened on a few of my projects is Logic seems to be overlapping the different audio tracks. I will have guitar on one track and a drum loop another. If I turn up the guitar volume (which can barely be heard), it changes the drum volume. On another project the drum loop cannot be heard and have not found a way to get the volume up. I have to place it is another audio track.
Does anyone have any experience with this issue? Please any help would be wonderful!!!
I have had other issues but won't even go there. I am thinking about taking it to the Genius Bar just don't have a lot of extra time.
I am getting pretty frustrated with these bugs and am thinking about switching back to Logic Pro 7.2

Hello there.. I am having the same issues. Right after the last OSX Update the core audio quits and lag time whenever I edit or try to edit anything turns "the wheel of terror" and I am not able to save anything on Logic 8. I got so frustrated after calling Apple and accomplishing absolutely nothing . They suggested I would #1 defragment the drive (done) and roll back the operating system to an earlier version which would totally suck because of the number of pluggins that I would have to re-install or re authorize would take me weeks. The other delightfull errors I am getting are Audio was too slow ...error # 10010 .. or drive was too slow to process data. I have literally exhausted all options and I am a geek and nothing short of re-installing or rolling back the OS that seems to be the best option according to Apple although they are too proud to admit that they need updates are more bug filled than the previous version.. What a nightmare..! If you happen to come accross any fixes please email me or reply to this post and good luck..

Why won't my iPhone 6 charge with any other charger but the one it came with? please help!

My iPhone 6 won't charge with any other charger, can anyone explain why?

Make sure both the charger and connector are certified and that they are in good working order. Test them with another iPhone if possible. If the charger is working, then the problem might be the lighting connector port. Check and see if it is dirty. If not then there might be a hardware problem. Take the phone in to an Apple Store or authorized service provider for evaluation and possible replacement. Take the cable and charger as well.

HT4972 I want to update my old I phone 4 give me the settings to move with that please

I Want to update my old iPhone 4

How you update depends on the version of iOS you are presently using on your phone.
If it is a version before iOS 5 you have to update the iOS while connected to a computer running iTunes 11.1 or later.

URGENT: I lost the Lion Partition after repairing the Windows 7 partition

URGENT: I lost the Lion Partition after repairing the Windows 7 partition
I have recent bought a new Macbook Pro and then I start doing all the necessary setup. This is the first time I do such setup with bootcamp myself anyway.
1st: normal MacOS setup, the Lion version has been setup perfectly.
2nd: run the bootcamp and setup the Windows 7, done perfectly as well.
3rd: try to partition and resize the harddrive with the Lion installed and create 2 new FAT partitions (now 4 partitions in total: 1 for Lion, Journaled, 1 for Windows 7 in NTFS, 2 for file sharing purposes in FAT). See if I can have better partitioning to do necessary organisations.
4th: When I want to restart in Windows to see if the newly created 2 FAT partitions can be read in Windows environment and can function norally, the Windows setup does not show at the start up page when I hold the "Option" key during the startup. I then try to restart again, still no such partition but boot directly to Lion.
5th: I tried to repair the Windows 7 with the start up disc and then it worked. I can also see the 2 newly partitioned FAT drive work normally.
6th: When I want to restart in Lion, I cannot boot the Lion OS and I cannot find the start up icon on the startup page even with me holding the "Option" Key.
7th: "MacOS Installation Utility" appears. I tried to repair but cannot as I have neither the Lion setup disc with me (coz the Lion has been pre-installed) nor a time machine backup/ any other backup image to load from.
8th: Tried to "erase and install a new copy of Lion", the partition where the Lion has been previously installed cannot be shown, now indicate itself as "freespace" and not able to be selected for my "erase and reinstall" process.
9th: so I go to 2 other FAT drives to do as the instructions to try "erase" and hope the "reinstall" process can be started. But the Disk Utility ends up saying the drive cannot be dismounted/ cannot verfy...
At the end of the many tries, I tried to shut the computer down and restart again, hopefully something will work still.... the startup page now shows a disk image with ?, I guess NO OPERATION system/ drive detected for booting. So I got a piece of metals without any use now...
Anybody help? Thanks alot!!

In Windows, go to Control Panel -> System. Do you see a Boot Camp option? If you do not, please download BC drivers as appropriate for you specific Mac year/model System requirements to install Windows on your Mac via Boot Camp - Apple Support
and Boot Camp: Install or repair Boot Camp drivers.
The other option is to use

I HAVE THEN OPENED UP FIREFOX AND HAVE DOWNLOADED IT ON THAT. NOW IT IS GIVING ME THE OPTION TO OPEN WITH?
PLEASE HELP ME HOW DO I OPEN THIS TO INSTALL

Wow. That's weird.
Is your iPad jailbroke? If it is, all bets are off. If it is not jailbroke, keep reading.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

I want to re-install my Pre-Installed Lion Macbook Pro, but I can't get the Lion OS from App Store with my Apple ID. Please help, thanks!

Hi, I want to do a clean re-installation of my end 2011 Macbook Pro which comes with pre-installed Lion OS. I go through the installation steps and after App Store verified my Apple ID, it prompted me that I did not purchase the Lion OS. I am very surprise to see this message which my pre-installed Lion Macbook Pro should have it. Please help and advise how can I get the OS? All other bundle softwares were in the purchase record except the Lion OS.

That was my mistake - sorry - it IS Command-R to boot to the Recovery disk, not Command-D: I either just hit the wrong key or am just now coming awake from my nap.
Let me see if I can just explain it in a few steps - I don't know of any link (but it would make a good User Tip):
Create an up-to-the minute back-up of your internal hard drive using an external hard drive and Time Machine.
Boot to your recovery partion - holding down Command-R on boot.
Use Disk Utility to erase Macintosh HD - use one GUID partition and format as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". Unless you're selling the machine, there's no need to do a secure erase (which can take hours).
After you erase the disk, re-install Lion from the same Recovery partition.
After installation is complete, reboot, again holding down the Command-R keys to boot into the Recovery Partition.
Restore your Time Machine back-up. This could take several hours.
Reboot after restore and you're back in business.
That should take care of everything - all you need is an Internet connection.
Call back if I didn't explain things too well - at least I got the Command-R right this time!

ps: sorry for my english :S

You apparently are using a version of OS X you did not purchase using your Apple ID. Although you can download Mavericks you cannot install it over your current system. You must repartition your hard drive, then reinstall the version of OS X originally installed when it came new from the factory. That would be on the installer discs that should have come with the computer. If the computer did not come with discs from the factory but OS X was pre-installed (Lion or Mountain Lion) then you can perform an Internet Recovery:
Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

You should have signed in with that address in the first place, but there is a workaround: go to System preferences>Mail, Contacts@ Calendars and add your @me.com address as an account there.

Boot from the original Install disc that came with the computer and then format the drive Mac OS Extended (Journaled) using the GUID partition. Then you can re-install OS X. If you no longer have the original media call AppleCare with the serial number of the machine (look on the bottom of the stand) and for a nominal fee they will ship you replacement media.
The chances are very good you will have fan problems if you used an off-the-shelf HD, beginning in 2009 Apple began using HD's from vendors that incorporated heat sensors into the HD. If you did not buy the same type of HD your computer will think the HD is overheating causing the fans to run at full speed.

I want to clean the HDD back to as new but have lost the disks that came with the Macbook Any ideas please

You will need either the system DVD's that came with the MacBook or a retail Snow Leopard DVD...

hienn,
Not yet. There was an upgrade page to 10.8.2 for the late 2012 models but it's down now. I have to assume that Apple pulled it because of some bugs. I would look for something next week, more likely than not. In the meantime, the OP should be good with 10.8.1 until the update shows up again.

I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work. Help?

I just restored my 13" MBP i5 at the apple store to the newest version of Lion after issues with a previous Time Machine backup from Snow Leopard- this time I created a new account and just ported files and folders, and now MS Office doesn't work.
^^ that's the main problem. Here's the full history.
I bought a new 13" i5 MBP, early 2011 edition. I had an old white Macbook 2.14 ghz core2duo on Snow Leopard. I attempted to port over my time machine backup, but encountered problems in that my User was inaccessible from the new computer after the import finished, and I had to go in and change the root password, etc, and for some reason or another, I couldn't install any programs at all from that administrator's account. By "couldn't" I mean I could install them, but upon installation they would never boot. So, I took it to the apple store and did a clean install from the most up to date Lion OSX. Then, I created a brand new admin account, instead of trying to import the old one, and things seemed great. Then, I just imported my old files from the TM backup, but not any system settings, permissions, or user data. Just my Docs, pics, vids, apps, and itunes stuff.
Here's where things get weird again. I imported this stuff under the name "old", but all of these folders have a red negative sign on them, marking them as restricted. So, from my main admin account, I cannot even peruse these folders. Since I didn't import user data, I can't sign in to the "old" account to change permissions. I already tried to change the permissions from system preferences, but that didn't change anything. And now, for whatever reason, of all the apps that were imported then, MS Office is the only set of apps that does not work. When I click on it, it just says there was a problem and asks if I'd like to send a report to apple. I tried reinstalling it to no avail. I'm an English student, so i really need access to Word. Can anyone help? The Apple store is a major detour for me and would like to fix this issue myself.

Most likely you have Office 2004 which are PPC-only applications and will not work in Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011. Other alternatives are:
Apple's iWork suite (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.)
Open Office (Office 2007-like suite compatible with OS X.)
NeoOffice (similar to Open Office.)
LibreOffice (a new direction for the Open Office suite.)

Abnormal behaviour with Lion. Opening Pages causes my Mac to have a lethargic performance since I installed the Lion OS, anyone has a similar problem?

Since i first installed the Lion OS, my mac has been having performance slowdowns while working on Pages. It appears to affect all functional software and hardware. E.G. when clicking either the dashboard or the desktop button it does nothing, Pages has a horrible lethargic processing, etc.
The strange thing is that Pages does reflect a considerable improvement if working in the fullscreen environment.
If anyone else is having or had this issue could you please give advice.
Thank you

You would be better asking these questions in the Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Discussions area. The Pages Discussions area is just about Pages so we won't be able to help you with general Mac OS X problems.
However, there is a big difference opening Pages/Numbers/Keynote from Launchpad or my previous Dock. If I use Launcpad, those software open now decently quick. Using Dock is much more slower.
Have you tried removing the Dock icons for iWork and readding them?
I also downloaded Lion Disk Recovery Assistant - I am surprised that these were not on my Mac already, though my Automatic upgrade assistant informs that no new upgrades are available.
You may be surprised, but you're not being singled out. The Lion Disk Recovery Assistant was not made available to anyone via Software Update. It's a manual download from Apple's Support web pages.
If you were not aware of the Mac OS X 10.7.1 update being available you should check System Preferences > Software Update and ensure it's set to check for updates as frequently as you require.

The Lion is infested with bugs. please clean him up!
