After upgrading my MacPro 1,1 to Lion, 2 GB of RAM are not recognized anymore.
I have 9 GB installed: 2x2 GB, 4x1 and the original 2x512MB.
In Snow Leopard, all 9GB were available, now only 7 GB are displayed. According to the memory info, 2 slots (with 1GB each) are 'empty'. I bought all RAM from Crucial.

It seems since I upgraded to Lion that I have to rely on opening some Numbers file from the File -> Open Recent menu.Some files do not appear in Spotlight and look like they are not on my machine as I cannot find them in the Finder either.

I check images again, and files were randomly missing here and there, same with mp3s. I'm suffering from blurry icons, and the random, auto shutdown that various users are experimenting with their Macs. why the random self deletion?

The problem I am having is in Photoshop 12.0.4. I had set my cursor to show brush size but whenever I click and drag using a brush (any type of brush) the cursor changes to a standard Macintosh arrow cursor for the duration of the drag, then reverts to the brush size cursor only when I stop dragging. This makes it very difficult to see where I am painting. This only occurs on my MacBookPro… my iMac performs exactly as I would expect it to. I have quit Photoshop and deleted all my settings and preferences files but it doesn't make any difference. I have tried different combinations of cursor settings with no success. I have an external monitor connected to my MBP but it doesn't matter which screen my PS window is on.

I have noticed that my HD space is just disappearing. I have turned off Time Machine Snapshots, so that is not the source of problem. When I go to "About Mac" and "More Info" and Storage it is showing "Others" as taking about 170 GB. The only notable software I have installed are MS Office and HP Printer utilities. Any way to check that is eating up my hard disk space?

I've dragged a few often-used files to my finder sidebar, as I did in Snow Leopard, but they keep disappearing. After a little experimentation, I realize that they drop off the sidebar as soon as I change the file in any way. For example, if I have a Pages doc in the sidebar and I open and edit it, as soon as I save the change, it drops off the sidebar. I can see this happening in real time.

Maybe I am missing a setting somewhere but the wee triangles alongside folders in list view randomly disappear. To see what is inside a folder, therefore I have to double-click (which kind of defeats the idea of list view methinks!)

The finder window on my MacMini (OSX 10.7) keeps dropping off the screen and cannot be retrieved. Where did it go? Clicking on the Finder icon gets no results.

I've exercised MANY different outlets for solving this problem. I am stumped beyond belief why this keeps happening. Frankly I'm also a little pissd as well becasue I have to recreate my login items through system preferences almost daily as a result of this "bug". Here's the 411. I have about 10 items I want to start upon login. Those apps are things like Safari, 1Password, Osfoora etc. I created the login items through system preferences and used the "+" sign to add each one. Upon booting my Mac back up the next day they're gone. With the exception of Dropbox which usually always remains there. I have NO idea why this keeps happening. I've tried the ways other people on this community have suggested such as trashing the preference .plist file etc. I personally have right clicked on that preference file and changed it to read only, locked the file and nothing works.

I seem to have the following problem. not sure exactly how it started as my wife was using the mac at the time (she says she just dragged the safari to different desktop via mission control) but now the situation is as follows:
When I hit safari icon it switches on (I can see the little light dot underneath the icon and after right click I can see names of windows that are opened) however I can only see the Safari menu at the top but no window. If I scroll to the right or left to different desktops it's not there, the same goes if I double tap to see the Mission Control mode it's not there...
I so far figured out that once the Safari menu is visible on top of the screen I can go to View>Enter Full Screen and then Safari will come back into the full screen mode but once I unclick the full screen button in right top corner the whole window just swoops into the right top corner and it's nowhere to be found again.

I am currently running version 10.7.4 from what I read and what I was able to make out from my serial number I wont be able to upgrade from Lion to Mountain Lion as it says my imac is a late 2006 model.I am just curious if I am able to run Lion why Apple isnt supporting the older models that can? Seems odd to me and it is not in my budget to buy a new mac and my current one is running perfectly. I'm not sure how much I will miss out not having Mountain Lion.

I am reluctant to upgrade to Lion due to being quite happy with OS 10.6.8, but now am looking for extra backup and storage after 3 external hard drives dying. Question: can I access iCloud using 10.6.8. on my iMac? - don't have an ipad, as yet. Or an iPhone. What are the major changes between Lion and Snow Leopard, and how difficult would it be to get used to using it, as it sounds like it is catering for those with iPads and/or iPhones and the ways of interacting with those items.

I have a colleague running 10.3 from home and she is looking to me for help on upgrading. I'm not clear on how this is done. How many steps would be needed to get up to date? I dont think it's possible to simply upgrade to Lion from such an old version.
