Unable To Customize Lion Installation

Hello All
I created a bootable DVD from the Lion installer. The one thing I noticed is when I did a clean install of Lion I wasn't able to customize the installation. The customize option was grayed out. Anyone else notice this? Thanks!
Joseph

None of the optional packages are installed by default anymore (including printer drivers).  If you want a optional package such as a printer driver or Java, you will get a prompt asking you to download it from Apples servers the first time you try to use it.  Other things that used to be on the install DVD such as Xcode now come from the app store if you want them.   Edit: I'm not sure about Languages though, they might still get installed.

  • Unable to customize the installation location of Acrobat through Creative Cloud

    It would appear after speaking with Adobe tech support and escalation team that AAM can't install acrobat to any drive other than C: (hard coded).  THIS level of incompotence is amazing.  I'm asking for a refund, if they are this incompentent on the install, imagine how bad the actuall code is.

    Jeff;
    Your answer is condesending and wrong.  The CS6 stand-alone product and the trial product both install and run correctly from my D: drive.  Basically what you are telling me is that this product can't be installed on any kind of SSD/HDD combo or any kind of remote (Citrix/Xen, VMWare desktop, etc) desktop.  Which of course would mean your whole staff is UTTERLY INCOMPETENT, instead of the one or two people in charge of the AAM msi.  Serriously, who tested and signed off on this?
    Other than Windows AS, Microsoft has supported installing software to alternate drives since it's creation.  Whoever told you that there is "Product Integrations" is likely the lazy/incompent programer that failed to complete the code in AAM.  The only files required on the OS drive are files that have to be in the "system32" drive tree.   (If you don't know what these are, then go look it up, because I do).
    I spent 3 hours on the chat/phone with your tech support.  We tried re-installing (because it somehow would not register with adobe, tried changing the directory in preferences to "D:\program files" vs "D:\program files (x86)", tried moving the files and changing the registry (I had to do it, they are not quite savy enought to search and replace a drive letter in the registry).  
    My system specs are pretty standard.  Win7/64  60GB SSD for OS, 500GB hhd for profiles and software.  All settings are set correcttly for the programs to install by default in drive D:  (the windows registry and the profiles are all on D:)
    Please be aware, I'm spending 3 more hours posting this everywhere.

  • Just upgraded my MacBookPro to OSX Mountain Lion. Now unable to reinstall Capt.Installer driver for my Canon LBP3010 printer. Same installer was used in previous OS

    Just upgraded my MacBookPro to OSX Mountain Lion. Now unable to reinstall Capt.Installer driver for my Canon LBP3010 printer. Same Capt.Installer was used in previous OS.
    Got message that the software was not obtained from Apple or trusted source.
    Anyone can help solve this issue, do not wish to purcahse new printer, and Apple does not appear to be friendly to me

    Apple is still friendly, only became more protective - for your very best. Right-click on the installer, then "Open", and then you get a window offering you the option to run it. That's a ML feature. Again, for your protection.
    Independently, and as not only with Apple, a new OS X is sometimes different, and ML is that bit "pickier" with fully compatible software. So, even if your driver ran under Lion, it can be that it won't under ML. In that case please check Canon's website if they have a newer ML-compatible version, If not, also go and blame Canon. It's their responsibility to provide up-to-date drivers, not Apple's.
    Good luck.

  • Unable to install Lion - S.M.A.R.T. errors on my hard drive???

    Unable to install Lion on a 27 inch 3.06 Intel Core 2 Duo iMac running OS 10.6.8.  When I am presented with install options, my HD option is dimmed and there is a message: "This disk has S.M.A.R.T. errors.  This disk has a hardware problem that can't be repaired.  Back up as much of the data as possible and replace the disk."
    I have not had ANY problems with this iMac since purchasing it and other than being unable to install Lion it seems to be working just fine, and yet now I'm told that my hard drive is unrepairable.
    Is this a glitch in the Lion Installer or should I be more concerned?
    Any info appreciated... now it seems I've paid $30 for a download I can't use.  Grrrrrr....

    Check it via Disk Utility (in your Applications/Utilities folder) on Snow Leopard:
    If that says there's a problem, too, there's likely a problem. 
    Be sure your backups are up-to-date, and let Apple have a look at it: http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/

  • Lost applications symbol and unable to install lion

    lost applications symbol and unable to install lion. Do I have to go back to original installation of operating system.  If I do will I have to reinstall all programs?

    A couple of questions:
    Are you really on 10.5.8 (as shown in your profile)? You need to be on 10.6.8 to install Lion.
    What exactly does the "lost applications symbol" mean? You mean it disappeared from the dock? Or is your Applications folder gone? Open a Finder window and see if you can find the Applications folder.

  • Lion Installer thinks that my internal boot hard drive "is used for time machine backups"

    I recently installed a new hard drive on my MBP. It's been running fine, but now I'm running into trouble when I tried to install Lion!
    The download worked just fine. But when I try to choose a disk to install Lion onto, my one and only hard drive (internal, boot disk) "is used for Time Machine backups" and is grayed out! I can't click it, I can't customize the installation or do anything except go backwards through the license agreement and such.
    No, I do not use my internal drive as a Time Machine. But somehow, even after I've disabled Time Machine, it keeps thinking I do! Time Machine is my menu bar is grayed out, but I can click "Browse other Time Machine disks" and for some reason my boot disk comes up! ("(My name)'s MacBook Pro on 'Untitled 1') I've never used this disk as a Time Machine!
    I have a feeling that this is somehow related to my using Super Duper to clone my old hard drive during the upgrade process.
    Is there a way to remove the Time Machine files from my boot disk or otherwise convince Lion to install? I've already repaired my disk permissions in Disk Utility. What else can I do?
    Thank you in advance. This is very frustrating!

    At some point, probably accidentally, your internal HD was selected as a destination for Time Machine.   Even if that was immediately changed, it had already created a Backups.backupdb folder at the top level of the drive.
    As long as that's there, OSX thinks you're trying to install OSX on your backup drive.  Just delete that folder.

  • I own a late 2009 Macbook Pro, and it keeps freezing after OSX Lion installation.

    I own a late 2009 Macbook Pro, and it keeps freezing after OSX Lion installation.  I will post my computer's 'specs' below.  I installed Lion, from Snow Leopard, through the App store.  The first week, it worked like a dream, and was loving my brand new computer, or so it seemed.  I then began to run into problems, and I can't confirm this 100%, but I believe it was after I updated from 10.7.1, to 10.7.2. 
    The freezes are sporatic at best, and cannot be narrowed down to one app.  I googled the issue about two weeks ago, and found a fix involving a temporary log-in, verifying the disk, restarting the computer holding CMD+R, and repairing the disk from there.  That fixed the problem.  For about three or four days.  From there I brought my laptop to Best Buy, where I purchased the computer (start the groans, my dad wanted the accidental damage, and he was paying, there was no argument).  My warranty there was still good, but all they were offering was to check my hard-drive, and possibly ship it out.  That would not be good for me, as I am a High School student, who works online. 
    So I then decided to go to the Apple store, see what they said.  They said a bunch of people had this problem, it would cost a lot to fix, as I would need a new Logic Board.  This did not make any sense to me, as I knew it was Lion's fault, so why would they not make the L-2009MBP Logic Board compatible, and why are only a few people having this problem, well a lot more than a few, but I mean not everyone. 
    So I asked a friend about it, and we decided to run a back up, and erase the computer, and re-install Lion.  Figuring maybe my data was corrupted during install.  This helped for a day or two, and happened again.  So this time, we backed up only files (music, pics, documents, etc.,) and did a fresh install.  I got my computer back last night.  Now, I am not saying that didn't help.  Previously I would have frozen about 18 times well writing this, but I have not frozen once (hopefully I didn't just jinx myself).  I have gone from about one freeze every 10-15 minutes (sometimes worse), to about one every 1-3 hours.  Which, let's be honest is still a lot. 
    So, before I just decide to go and revert to Snow Leopard on my merry way, I ask, do any of you have any other ideas?  Or guarenteed fixes?  I know a guarentee is a hard thing to ask for, but I am desperate, my teachers are getting angry with me for not sending work, and I know this would help a lot of people.  Thank you to those who read through my whole spiel, and thank you to those who will help me!
    [Ps, while I am somewhat of a noob, I know my way around a computer, so any help, or knowledge you could bestow upon me is awesome.  Especially DIY fixes.  (if your only advice is, don't buy a mac at Best Buy, don't bother commenting)]
    Macbook Pro
    15-inch, 2.53GHz, Mid 2009
    Processor:  2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory:  4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics:  NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
    Software:  Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 (11C74)

    Once it is downloaded you need to restart the computer if it does not restart automatically. When it next starts up you should note a progress bar appearing below the Apple logo. When done the computer will restart once more. The new firmware should now be installed.

  • HT1338 Mountain Lion installation was interrupted - can't restart the download.

    My Mountain Lion installation was interrupted.  Now, when I try to download, it won't do it.  After clicking "Download" it pauses for a moment, and then nothing happens. 
    Any suggestions?  Thanks!

  • OS X Lion installer not starting correctly

    Hi,
    I have a Late 2007 MacBook (2GB RAM, 2.20 GHz Core 2), and the Lion installer isn't running right.  I have OS X 10.6.8 so that is fine, but the odd thing is that whenever I try to run the installer, the dock expands to make room for the new app, but then shrinks again, and I get no error telling me that the program closed accidentally.  What is going on? 
    Any help would be appreciated!

    Check to see if the startup disk needs repairing before installing Lion.
    Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:  Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If DU reports errors, start up from your Mac install disc to make repairs.
    Make sure your Mac can run Lion >  OS X Lion - Technical Specifications

    Dear Friends
    I'm getting this same error ("... dependent dylib #1 could not be loaded") on a 2x3GHz quad-core Mac Pro with 17GB of memory. I'm installing on top of 10.6.8 on a two-drive, two-slice Apple software RAID.
    I'm downloading the Lion installer for the third time today and will try for the umpteenth time to install it. I've used another internal drive, a bootable DVD, and a USB flash drive, all to no avail.
    If anyone knows a solution that doesn't involve erasing my drives, I'd appreciate your sharing it.
    (Before I had a kid I would've installed Lion the day it was released. But now I'm short on time and waited more than six months after its release before trying to install it on our production Mac so I wouldn't encounter such problems. Hehe. I installed Lion on the day of its release on our MacBook Pro and didn't have any problems.)

  • Has anyone encounter a Grey Screen with spinning wheel stuck (frozen waited more than 5h) in after running Lion Installer from SL?

    Hi
    I've tried almost everything on my Macbook Pro 8,2 (i7 2.0Ghz).

    Download the Lion Installer 4 times. MD5 Passed.
    Everytime I've tried to install lion it give me this Grey screen... The mouse wheel start spinning and it then stops, and nothing happens from that point. (Also rebooted many, many times same result).
    SL Install disk runs fine, even installing it from Zero. I've setted up time machine. (The restore to definetly works also the SL installation too)
    I'm a little far away to send my Macbook to a customer service.
    What else should I try?
    :S

    Thank you very much William
    I ran the installer and saw the same screen stuck... After I used Shift to boot in safe mode, I got the 3 beeps with grey screen apple logo. So then I rebooted into Single User do the 'nvram boot-args="-x -v"' and voila the installer continued with no issues I've turned back de 'nvram boot-args=""' and everything seems to be working fine.
    Really weird beahviour of the installer with my Mac.
    Thanks.

  • ITunes does not start after Lion installation

    hi,
    after upgrading to the latest iTunes version and to Lion, I get "The file “iTunes Library.itl” cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. Would you like to download iTunes now?".
    Precise:
    I upgraded iTunes to the latest version (from the previous one, I am a regular upgrader) yesterday afternoon around 15:00, then I worked several hours on my iTunes library (including some new buys). At night I then installed Lions. After starting Lions, iTunes does not start anymore.
    I have read the threads about copying old library files from the "previous iTunes Libraries" folder. But if I do that, I will loose the entire afternoon work. Anyway it I cannot understand why iTunes now believes to be older after Lion installation than before...
    Can somebody please help?

    Hi,
    after backing up, I downloaded the latest version again and it really worked.
    Strange that evidently the Lion installation did revert yesterdays upgrade from iTunes. Now it works, including all my latest changes from yesterday.
    Case solved:)
