MacBook Pro :: Size Of OS X Lion 10.7.4 Download File?
Jun 12, 2012
I need to reinstall OS X lion 10.7.4 as instructed by Apple because there is no other way to fix the problem I have. Because I am on wireless and have limited download capacity, I would like to know before hand how large the download for OS X lion 10.7.4 will be. If its larger then my download limit my ISP will slow me down and the download could take days. So the question is How large is OS X lion 10.7.4 to download?
My connection is very slow (1Mb cable/DSL). How can I download a a large-size update when the download starts over every time the connection is cut? Can I use a download manager with Software Update?
I have scanned a document on my Canon Printer.The size is very large about 14 Megabytes.I do not know how to reduce the size so that I can send it via Mail. I have searched HELP but have not as yet found an answer. One suggestion was that in my Mail window there is an option to reduce the size of the attachment but I see no such option in my email.
Anyone else noticed that file size calculation in Lion is inaccurate? I noticed when trying to burn cds or dvds with Toast, Toast would calculate the exact size, but Lion would give different results, either larger or smaller, but never accurate.I know for a fact Toast is right and Lion is wrong because I tested the same files in PCs, and in Leopard, and Lion's results are off the mark.Incidentally, I've been using Lion for a month now, and I have to say that in my 18 years as a Mac user I had never encountered so many annoying bugs when switching to a new OS. And don't get me started on the no-color sidebar!
I have some scanned PDF's files with big size (10Mb - 15Mb). The original document doesn't exist. How can I change these existing PDF files to a smaller size?
I am not a newbie to computers so I am aware that temporary files (swap files) are par for the course. I also realize that when dealing with larger files (video, for example) swap files tend to grow larger. But I can't reconcile going from over 200 gb of available space to showing literally 0 bytes available in less than a half an hour. Granted, I am exporting a video from iMovie (about 2 hours) but to loose over 200 gb of available hard drive space to a swap file doesn't seem right. Is this really my swap file or is something else possibily going on here?
When I send a PDF to a windows user, the PDF shrinks. I'm not talking about file size, but when they open the document, it's 50-75% of the original size and hard to read.Â
On my computer everything looks fine. I'm not using any filters to reduce file size.Â

I've been trying several different methods to download a file through Applescript. I've looked at different sites/discussions and I've tried to use curl, wget, and some other ways, however I still can't get it to download the file. It'll either just not download, or no URL specified. [code]
when i download an application i get the message to choose the location which is the macintosh hard drive ( i cant figure out how to select something else) and after it has completed the download i cannot locate where the new file / application is. I have downloaded twice and do not see it.
I am using os 10.7.3 and a couple of weeks ago I found I can no longer download pdf files. Instead nothing happens or it try so open in a document viewer, for example: [URL].What do I do? I have not made any changes except update os 10.7 and adobe reader. Other computers using snowlepoard down load just fine!
I was wondering if there is a small file size limit to the FAT32 file system. I recently picked up a 1TB WD external with Firewire (pre-formatted FAT32) and have been transferring movies and such fine, but I just tried transferring an HD movie (5GB) and some large .dmg's/.iso's and they all just fail with an error.
Is this a size limitation, and will i need to reformat the drive to fix it, or is there something else I'm missing?
I have a Mac Air running Mavericks on a HFS partition and Windows 7 on a BOOTCAMP NTFS partition. I have some files that I want to read/write from/to both systems. Since OS X can't write NTFS and Windows can't write HFS either, and I don't want to use any 3rd-party tools/drivers, in OS X, I copy those files from NTFS to its HFS partition, make changes, then switch to Windows and sync them back to NTFS.Â
The problem is, after I copied a file from NTFS to HFS in OS X, it seemed ok. But when I switched to Windows, the very copied file in HFS partition had its size changed (bigger) although I didn't make any changes to it in OS X yet. This happens to almost every file I copied, text and binary. For those text files, I tried to open it with EditPlus in Windows and EditPlus reports the correct size on the status bar.Â
iv'e had this problem for a while now, every time i try to download any file from safari it quits,and i get a message saying safari has quit unexpectedly. I have disabled plug-ins but the problem still isn't fixed.
I'm trying to figure out how to change the maximum log file setting for my Cisco VPN. I think on a Windows machine you are able to do this:Â
[Instructions for Windows: right-click "Computer" on your desktop, and select "Manage". Expand "Event Viewer" and then "Applications and Services Logs". Right-click on "Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client) and select "Properties. There will be a "Maximum log size" and a "When maximum event log size is reached" option.]Â
I can't seem to figure out how to do this on my Macbook Pro. I'm running 10.7.4Â
Have tried viewing in Console and while i can see the ppp file - there's no way to see maximum file size settings.
I'm must be hitting some strange key combination / trackpad gesture (I just got a macbook pro) and my font size in safari keeps randomly increasing. This happens on the desktop with the icons as well.
I downloaded Disk Inventory X but it says the same thing So is this a miscalculation by OS X or are there some other files somewhere that I'm not adding in my total?
I tried to send a few large file emails, one of which I aborted midstream. Now, when I try to get mail, MacMail keeps trying and succeeding to recover that same file over and over again. It's hung up in this cycle and I cannot receive emails into my inbox as a result.
Why does Mac OX 10.6.8 keep making copies of a file anytime I download, copy, or move a file? It will copy, dowload or move the file, then begin making copies until I reboot. This makes it impossible to deal wit hfiles unless I want to spend a lot of time rebooting after every time, then deleting all the redundant copies.
I am having some issues with my Macbook. It doesn't matter what file it is. Every time I download a .dmg file and it finishes its download and is about to mount, my mac freezes up and a dark screen drops down and tells me to reboot my computer?
Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this problem?
When I opened safari my homepage was apple and it opened using the middle of the display with the desktop screensaver visable on both sides of the page now it opens adn takes up the whole screen I don't know how to resize it and save it where it will open to the same all the time. I'm a very new owner of an IMAC and to apple so I'm completely in the dark to mac systems and just stumbling around. I'm a 70 year old guy that's ben drug into the 21 century and trying to keep up (not very good )
When I select a file in my Finder, I want to be able to see the file size. I've googled and googled but found nothing. don't tell me to hit the spacebar. There must be some little app or script to enable this right ?

I recently purchased a MacBook Air to replace my broken Windows laptop. The Windows laptop was backed up every Sunday night onto an external hard drive. Is it possible to download the files and folders within the Windows back up file onto my MacBook Air?
