Software Runs Slowly In MAC OS 10.7.3
Jun 10, 2012I have purchased the MAC mini with 10.7.3 and installed our software, but the software run slowly on the 10.7.3.I tried to remove the network cable, then it run correctly.So, I think maybe some system application will check the software on-line, that cause the software run slowly.I need to find out the system application and kill it. our software can run correctly on the MAC OS 10.4.x, 10.5.x and 10.6.x when the network works fine.

Jul 2, 2012I have an iMac running the latest version of Lion (10.7.4) and which I have upgraded to a one terabyte hard drive and full memory capability. I back up to a My Book 2 terabyte external hard drive using Time Machine. My iMac is often very sticky, though I've done most of the diagnostics I know of and preferences etc. are seemingly all OK and fcuk -fs gives a positive result! The Mac is often hard to wake from sleep and in particular seems to spend a lot of time backing up very-very slowly, with the result that it frustratingly seems to be backing up most of the time with the consequent effects on using other programs. Also the whole thing seems to grind to a halt after a hard days work with quite a few applications open. I'm wondering what can be causing this and what I can do to overcome this very frustrating and debilitating problem?

Is that an issue? The two versions of OSX?By the way of more information, I'm also going to use the mini as a centralized music and video source -- it'll hook up to my stereo system and my projector.

Power Mac G5 :: X800 Fan Runs At Full Speed All The Time
Dec 30, 2007I recently purchased an X800 and installed in my G5 1.8DP (OS X 10.4.9) with the intention of having something to drive my shiney new 30" Cinema display. All booted fine and, in glorious wide-o-vision, I spent the next 30 mins playing with all of this extra screen real-estate. At that point, I started to notice that things were not as quiet as I'd initially anticipated.
In fact, the amount of fan noise was so high that I'm not going to be able to use the new card as the machine is part of a project recording studio installation. Doh! So, a quick trawl of the ATI web site lead me to the ROM updates claiming to address fan speed control.
Update to the most recent version of the ROM and no change. Similarly, I've installed the most recent version of teh ATI control panel.
Odd as other people seem to be saying that they're not experiencing the same problem. And strangely, the GFX card fan runs at a low "normal" speed in Safe Boot mode whilst installing the ROM updates.

Aug 23, 2010I was trying to set up my Time Machine to an external hard drive. I didn't continue because it asked to "initialize" the hard drive which I had a lot of important things on.
I have another external hard drive I'd like to use but, my Time Machine has this error code of -43. What is this and how can I use my Time Machine on another external hard drive?

Intel Mac :: Time Machine Won't Back Up?
May 27, 2012I know this is a common issue and I've read all the other posts and tried everything, but time machine still won't back up. I need help figuring out if there's anything I can do, or if I need a bigger back up disk. If so, how big?Â
I have deleted old backups, excluded unnecessary files, and cleaned out folders. It says 157.46GB available of 159.7GB; but when it backs up it says it requires 188.30GB but only 157.46GB are available. Â

Intel Mac :: Time Machine Is Not Backing Up
Jun 12, 2012I am non-technical! Following many months of successful automatic back-ups to an external hard disc I find that Time Machine had failed to back-up data since October 2011 for no apparent reason that I am aware. The last file name on the backup hard disc had a file name of the date and time with a suffix '.inprogress' (though the little symbol in the top right corner of the screen did not indicate activity). I dragged and dropped this file in Trash and went through the 'Repair' process for the back-up disc though this process did not indicate that there was a fault with the backup disc. Then restarted the iMac and clicked on Start Backup Now. The process started as normal but after a few moments I got the message 'The Backup was not performed because an error occurred while copying files to the backup disc'. Again a '.inprogress' file was created on the backup hard drive. The backup hard disc is under 10% used.

Intel Mac :: Restoring From Time Machine?
Jul 2, 2012I wanted a clean install of Lion, so I copied over my iTunes library, saved my Mail as an mbox file, and moved all of my critical files to an external drive. But I completely forgot to save my iPhoto library. I have been running Time Machine for almost a year and I see that I have the file still on my NAS but it says I don't have the permissions to open it up. I can only open Time Machine backups since I reinstalled Lion. I have kept the same machine name and, I believe, username. It did not create a different Time Machine backup--there are still the same three files for the three different computers I am running Time Machine on. Is there any way I can restore my iPhoto library from the old Time Machine backup?Â

Intel Mac :: Time Machine Won't Open
Jul 5, 2012When I try to open Time Machine nothing happens. I have a clone of my system but can't copy time machine to the applications folder because the system won't permit it because it is used by the OS. How do I restore time machine in OS X Lion. Tried the usual things like restarting.

Feb 11, 2012I thought I could use a 1TB External drive to back up my 320GB startup disk, and use the rest of the empty 680GB for storage. However, Time Machine started taking up 600GB of spaceon the External drive! I was like "What the heck!?" So I put unwanted Time Machine Backups in the trash and emptied it. Nothing, they're stuck there now.Â
I'm planning on wiping the disk clean and starting over, but for future reference is there a proper way to delete Time Machine Backups? Surely there must be; (I mean, who would have known Time Machine would take up MORE SPACE than the drive it's backing up in the first place?

Intel Mac :: OS 10.7 Will Not Boot After A Time Machine Restore?
Mar 21, 2012Something went wrong on my mac last week. I noticed that backup couldn't complete so I restarted. Then I could no longer login to my main account (admin), but could login to my daughter and wife's managed account and could create a new admin account. I assumed this was a key chain issue so gave up trying to access and decided to restore from time machine. 2 restores (72 hrs each) and the mac will not boot after the restore. I have the ever spinning pin wheel for 24 hrs already. What can I do to get all my docs back? I don't think it's a hard drive issue (1.5TB) installed almost 6 mths ago.
