Upgraded to Yosemite and can no longer remote into my work iMac through screen sharing- it is turned on in settings?

My screen sharing functionality did not show up in the dock with an updated icon. It had a question mark- shows my connections but nothing works, I did make sure screen sharing is on and also connected to VPN. Once I tried to launch screen sharing nothing happens. Such an elegant solution in Mavericks not does not work. Ugh. Help!

This is the post that got me set up- I too am running an older version at work vs. Yosemite. As soon as I followed is advice everything worked.

I believe the location of the "Screen Sharing" app has changed, which explains why if you had it in the dock it has been replaced by a ?
Don't forget you can launch screen sharing (once your VPN connection is up) by typing in the Safari destination slot vnc://remotemachinename:portnumber (omit the :port number if you are using the default VNC port, 5900). This should launch Screen Sharing and put its icon in the dock. You can drag the Screen Sharing icon to the left of your dock and it will hopefully remain there after you exit Screen Sharing, or you can right-click on the icon when it's running and select Options->Show in Finder to find out its new location and drag its icon to the permanent entries in your dock.
Hope this helps; worked for me.

I just upgraded to Yosemite and can no longer connect to the WIFI any suggestions

I Just up upgraded to Yosemite and can no longer connect to internet - any ideas?

I have the same problem after loading OS X 10.10 Yosemite on my MacBook Pro (Late 2008). Wi-Fi (Time Capsule) connects OK, then I open Safari and it waits for a minute and then gives me a message that it can't load the page because I'm not connected to the Internet. The Wi-Fi is fine. When I run the network analysis, it shows that everything is fine up to the Internet; the dots are red after that. I have another MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012) and it loaded and runs with no known problems (so far). I am writing this message on the Late 2008 MacBook Pro, so you can see that there is no problem with the Internet connection. It is a Yosemite problem. My iPhone and newer MacBook Pro connect with no problem. I loaded Yosemite TWICE, then ran the Disk Utility and fixed some disk permissions but there were no other problems identified. Restarting after reloading Yosemite and the same problem is there. Restarted after running the disk utility and fixing disk permissions and it still can't connect to the Internet. Same problem. Does anyone have an idea how this might be fixed? What's going on? Thanks for your help.
Update: Air Drop also doesn't work. Thanks.

I upgraded to Yosemite and can no longer import photos from my camera

I have a Canon Eos Rebel SLR Digital Camera (Model DS6041). It has always worked perfectly with iPhoto on my iMac running Maverick. I upgraded to Yosemite yesterday and now when I plug the camera in...iPhoto opens...and it shows the camera listed in the pane on the left but in the upper right hand corner of the main photo window it just continually says "Loading". I plugged it into my wife's Macbook Air which was also upgraded yesterday morning and it did the same thing. In order to make sure it was a problem with Yosemite and not my camera...I plugged it into my dad's Macbook Air which HASN'T been upgraded. It is still running Maverick. His Macbook immediately recognized the photos and loaded them and was ready for me to import. Does anyone know what is going on with the Yosemite upgrade and if it is being looked at? Thank you.

Have you guys tried this?... It worked for me
I called Canon and they said to change a setting on the camera and for me it worked. They said to go to the settings menu and go to communication... on my camera there are two choices... Normal (PC) and PTP. Mine was set to normal and always worked fine. After the Yosemite update...it no longer worked. Yesterday I changed it to PTP and the pictures popped right up. Hopefully you have similar settings in your camera and can try this...

Upgrade to Yosemite and can no longer place jpg files in Illustrator

I have recently upgraded to Yosemite, wish to hell I hadn't, but now all my Illustrator work that has placed images that are not eps images is destroyed. When I open a file I am asked to repair or replace the images but any that are not in eps format are ignored. How do I fix this? I had real issues with the last upgrade to SnowLeopard as well. Sick and tired of things not working when you upgrade. Why should we have to uninstall and reinstall every time?

I've been on on all the versions and yes, it might ask you to replace, but I'm happily placing JPG images in Illustrator, so I'm not encountering the problem you're having. Are you updating old files or did you move the folder where the images are stored, because that would be the only occasion you would be asked to "repair". I place CMYK and RGB JPG images all the time (with a X over them, so I know they are placed).

Quark XPress 8 has a few of those PPC only tools, too. Like they they forgot to update them or something.
They were already at v9 when Lion came out and decided that official support would be for v9 only; see here.
According to this, the only thing PPC in v9 and v8 are video encoding for SWF export -- looks like an XTension according to System Profiler. Given their position of not officially supporting v8.x in Lion, that will probably always remain broken in v8. I use v8.5.1 in Lion; works fine for me -- I don't do any SWF exporting.
I have a few other things on my MBP, recently upgraded to Lion; I upgraded just about every app to the latest versions with exception of Quark. The only other PPC things besied that XTension are some scripts from Adobe Illustrator CS5.1, which got installed with CS 5.5. I guess Adobe forgot to upgrade those. No biggie, I never use them.

I changed from a dial up to a high speed network and can no longer get Firefox to work as my browser. What do I need to do?

I changed from a dial up to a high speed network and can no longer get Firefox to work as my browser. What can I do.
I did try to download Firefox again, but still will not work.

Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Updated to iTunes 7 and can no longer play music off my iPod through iTunes

The title says it all. I can no longer play music from my iPod through iTunes now that I have upgraded. When I click on my iPod there is a little black lock beside where it shows the disk usage.
anyone have any ideas. I like some of the new features of this version of iTunes but it really seems to be a few steps backwards.

That little lock usually indicates that the iPod is set to autosync. In order to play iPod content through iTunes, you have to be on manual sync.

I upgraded to Mavericks and can't find a driver to work with my EPSON Perfection 4990 scanner. The Epson site says to update thru my mac but it there is nothing there. Any suggestions?

I upgraded to Mavericks and can't get my Epson Perfection 4990 scanner to work. I had gotten it to work with a driver I downloaded from EPSON with Mountain Lion

Hi...
Epson is vorking on updating drivers and utilities for this scanner.
From the epson site :
"Description:
An OS X 10.9 compatible Scanner Driver and EPSON Scan Utility for this model is not yet available but is coming soon. Please check back for availability."
So, until then you can only use the basic scanning provided by Image Capture.
Alternatively take a look on vuescan.

I can no longer see all of my videos through Home Sharing on my iPad

I have many Seasons of different TV Programs on my desktop computer. I used to stream that to my iPad or Apple TV through Home Sharing. Now I can only see three out of twenty or more TV Programs. I can see all my movies, but not the TV shows. Does anyone know how to rectify this. I thought rebooting my desktop may help, but did not make any difference. The version of iTunes is 10.5.3.3

Can no one help me with this issue? I can see all videos in iTunes, but not through Home Sharing.
Thanks

Display is not working But Through Screen Sharing I can Access my computer

Ok. After turning my computer off and then turning it back on a couple hours later the screen would not turn on. Im still able to log in. With screen Sharing I can acces my computer and system profiler shows that my RAM cards are OK. However when I click on Graphics/Display it unexpectedly quits.
What could the problem be? Any help is greatly appreciated : )
Ps. I wrote this through screen sharing out of my account on the display-less computer.

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
I wonder if you could have the NVIDIA chip problem?
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377
Is the display totally dead, or can you see your desktop if you shine a strong light through the apple on the back of the display? If so, you may have a different issue with just the internal display. A good test would be to see what happens with an external display connected directly to the MBP.
Good luck!

After upgrading to Yosemite I can no longer upload to Facebook

Hi,
After I upgraded my macbook pro to Yosemite a couple of days ago I can no longer upload photos to Facebook.
After choosing the files and uploading I'm prompted with this message:
Sorry, something went wrong.
We're working on getting this fixed as soon as we can.
Go Back
I do everything the same as before I upgraded, and when I use my mac mini which is still on OS X Mavericks I upload without an issue.
Would appreciate your assistance

What happens when you try?

Since I upgraded to Yosemite I can no longer upload photos to eBay by selecting "events" all my photos pop up together. Anyone know how to fix this?

I recently updated to Yosemite 10.10.1. Since I updated I can no longer upload photos to eBay, Shutterfly, Craigslist by selecting "events". It is no longer an option.
All my photos come up as one entire library. When I view them in iPhoto they are divided into events, however once I go to upload them the entire library appears without any defining options, such as "events", recent imports, etc. I thought at first this might be an issue with eBay, but realized it wasn't when I tried to list on Craigslist. This is a nuisance and time consuming process. Does anyone know if there is a fix in the future or if I am just missing some quick fix?

I would like to add that Comcast is my internet provider. Perhaps that is part of the issue although the Connection Doctor confirms the mail box is connecting to the internet. No other function processes when Connection Doctor program is used to find the source of the issue. I have read forum posts but am unable to find a way to get my Apple mail to be delivered to my computer. It worked fine up until I chose to transfer mail to the Cloud. My mail account is a .mac account.
Still hoping someone out there can help me.
thanks,

Just upgraded to Lion and can no longer import any .mov files ("file not supported") to 3.1.3. Also can no longer view any .mov or .mp4 files already in library.

Have been using Aperture 3.1.3 with no problems. Importing from a Nikon D80 (RAW & JPEG), Casio (.MOV) and Flip (.mp4). Could import and view all videos without issue prior to Lion upgrade. After Lion installation, can no longer import .mov files (get "file not supported" error) or even view any .mov or .mp4 files currently in library (even though thumbnail is present). Can watch the .mov files directly on my camera using Quicktime in Finder but can't even drag & drop that file into Aperture. Anybody else having similar problems?

Still no resolution and Geniuses at store could not assist. Unfortunately, it looks like not all the applications were ready to support the Lion operating system. We could not import any .mov files, could no longer view any .mov files already in my Aperture library and could not email any .mov files. Totally frustrated. Use Aperture almost daily and can't lose the video functionality. Was also running dog-slow. Constantly looking at the spinning wheel. Geniuses suggested that I wipe out hard drive and reinstall Snow Leopard. Had full backup on external drive with Time Machine.
Not an easy process though...had to reinstall several times (at 5 hours each time) because I continued to have issues. Finally figured out that I needed to delete every backup file from Time Machine on external drive from the date I installed Lion because some of the hidden files were still migrating back to Snow Leopard.
I had to:
1. Delete all time machine backup files from date/time of Lion installation forward
2. Do "clean" installation of Snow Leopard (wiped hard drive using disk utility and booted with Snow Leopard disc)
3. Chose option to reinstall from backup off Time Machine which eventually got me back to Snow Leopard desktop
4. Deleted Aperture program and reinstalled (I had to install Aperture 2 and then install Aperture 3 upgrade.
5. Reinstalled iLife apps
5. Applied all Apple updates available (again this took a few hours because there were several updates from Snow Leopard's original release plus Aperture 3 and other application updates)
Still doing some tweaking on some of my other apps but got everything back to where I originally was. Now plan to wait on a few version updates from Lion before reinstalling.
I am one of Apple's biggest fans, but was very disappointed in the fact that I lost functionality in one of their own pieces of software (which I use the most!) by installing Lion.

Since upgrading to Yosemite, I can no longer print to my Kodak AiO. The fix on Kodak site does not work.

Since upgrading my Macbook to Yosemite 10, I can no longer print to my Kodak AiO 5250. The fix on Kodak site with Terminal does not prompt to password like it says it will. Macbook has all available upgrades completed. Printer works with a PC.

This is where I found the Kodak fix: http://support.en.kodak.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/49247/selected/true
I'm not really comfortable in 'Terminal' but tried it. Nothing happened after pasting in the first command. The fix says it will ask for password.
I see now this seems to be a pretty common problem, I would have thought Apple would fix it with an update for the number of complaints I've found. Since Kodak is in receivership or bankruptcy, I would think it's unlikely they will have any more solutions. I feel like Yosemite stole my printer.

UPgraded to Lion and can now longer access all my Entourage Contacts and Mail. What do I do. Desperate

All my mail , contacts can no longer be opened as Entourage is a PPC app.
What do I do to recover contacts and migrate to Apple mail.
Would really appreciate help. Very important to me

Download the 30 day trial of Office 2011 from Microsoft. You'll be able to open all your stuff from the antiquated version of Office and then move the info to Apple Mail.
