Contact the software manufacturer for assistance."Â I can't update what so ever... every application basically needs to be manually installed or just comes to an unknown error either restarting the Mac or going through standalone...

Whenever I try to install the latest preview of Mountain Lion, it says"Some features of OS X Mountain Lion are not supported for the disk "R2iMac". The warning directs me here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4649 It seems like it'll let me continue, but once it restarted it eventually said the installation failed. The point is I do have a Recovery HD and I don't know what to do about this. Check out my partitions:And here's the error dialouge: Please advise.

I recently upgraded from snow leopard to 10.7.3. I tried to install the beta of messages. When I tried to run the installer it froze whilst checking if it was able to install on this computer. In the end I had to force quit the installer. This was the first piece of new software I had tried to install since upgrading to 10.7.3. In. The end I gave up. Today I tried to install another application. Exactly the same happened and I had to force quit again. It appears that i am now unable to install any new apps?

I understand the lion installer evaporates after use. I have three macs and would rather not endure the 2+ hours to download lion for each. As soon as the App Store finished downloading it, it went straight into the install sequence. I've stopped at the software license page for fear that it might proceed after that and I won't be able to stop it prior to the installer disappearing.

I need to make a bootup drive that has 10.7.2 on it on my iMac. I do not have -- however -- a Lion install disk...and I know I can't go backwards with the 10.7.3 that's running on it. I'm totally fine making a new bootable partition...butÂ
How do I start from scratch with 10.7.0...and upgrade only to 10.7.2....with no disks?Â

I just downloaded the Photoshop CS6 Beta on my Macbook Air (August 2011) with Lion 10.7.3. The Adobe installer app fails to launch. I just installed CS6 on my Mac Mini Server with no problems and in fact, created a new user on the MBA and the installer app will launch and install CS6 under that user account. I have run the 'repair permissions' utility on the hard drive.What is going on inside my main user account that is preventing this app from initializing?

I have a MBP 13" early 2013 / Mountain Lion 10.8.2...A while ago I got a spinning wheel right after starting my mac. I contacted Apple since my mac was still under warranty, and after further diagnosis, they told me that I have to replace the HD, so they mail me a new HD.Â
I connected the new HD on a USB cable to format and re-partition it using Disk utility (At this point, DU was able to see the HD on a USB connection). After partitioning, I removed my Mac cover to replace my HDs. I booted using a Mountain Lion USB drive, but the installer couldn't find the new HD, just the recovery partition. I bought a new HD from Amazon, same result, my mac can start with teh old HD. Also, the disk utility can read the new HDs if they are on a usb connection, but it cant read them if they are on a SMART connection ! Â

For the past month or so, any time I've tried to go through the process of installing an app that requires Installer to do the work, when it comes time to enter my admin password, nothing happens. The password box pops up, I enter the correct password (as when I enter an incorrect one it does its "incorrect password shake-thing") and, like always, the admin password box disappears. Normally at this point, the installer continues on to install the app, but instead it does absolutely nothing. I can click "Install" again to enter the password, but, again, nothing happens. I've tried changing my password, deleting preference files, doing a disk repair and permissions repair - nothing.

I'm trying to make an OS X Lion boot disc. A failed Windows 8 Bootcamp install killed my Mac, but luckily I had a Time Machine backup which was accessible via the Recovery Disk. However, I would still like to have a boot disc handy in case something like this happens again and the Recovery Disk is somehow corrupted.Â
I Googled(among other things) how to make one, and the instructions seem fairly simple. Only, I can't find a Mac OS X Lion Installer anywhere. When I bought my refurbished iMac from Apple, OS X Lion was already on it. Since I didn't download it from the App Store it seems I don't have the Lion Installer to make a boot disc... Anything I can do (besides wasting $30 to redownload Lion from the App Store for the file) ?

I am currently installing OSX 10.7.3 on an external passport HD for my wife whose Macbook hard drive has died. I now have all the system up to date but have encountered an odd problem. All the .mpkg installers are opening in Terminal not the Installer utility, which I can't find. My choices are in Open with: Terminal, App Store and Other.

I am bilingual, and use two languages on my Mac - English as default, and Russian as secondary. After the update to 10.7.4. every time I log back in (have a password on my Mac Pro), all the programs have Russian language. For example, I open a Chrome window to start typing in the web address, and it writes in Russian language. I cannot remove Russian language, as I use it as much as English language. But I would like to have English as default like I am used to. I have checked in the Preferences, everything is as it used to be, primary English, and secondary Russian. But the problem persists even after the reboot, changes in the Preferences.
It is not hard to switch between the languages, it is just annoying to expect the machine run in English, and then see the other language, and switch.
P.S. Besides, the English language icon is became more dull after the update. Not that I complain, just want to know if it is normal or there IS the problem with languages on my Mac.Â

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a MBP (Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard) with 2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB SDRAM. I am trying to to upgrade to Mac OS X Lion. I have attempted to create a USB installer with a Lexas 16 gb USB memory stick and I have gotten the following error towards the end of the restore:
"Restore Failure Could Not Restore- Cannot Allocate Memory".
What does this mean? Is there anything I can do other than attempt burning a disk (which I don't want to do cause of the lengthy process)? When I review the contents all the installer files are present. Upon rebooting, it appears the installer is working but I have not initiated installation out of fear that the installer is incomplete. Should I attempt installation?

I just bought an SSD for my MacBook Pro and I am trying to use a Lion recovery installation USB hard drive that I created when Lion was first launched. I have successfully used this drive to install Lion on my old MacBook but I can't actually remember using it for this MacBook Pro.
When I try and do a clean install of Lion on my MacBook Pro with this new SSD, instead of installing from the drive like I have successfully done in the past, it's trying to download a 4.044 GB package from the Internet. I wouldn't mind so much if it wasn't estimating 5-6 hours to download and it's already failed to download twice?
I figure it's downloading it again for few possible reasons.
1. There is a more current installer available than this one I am using so its trying to download a current version.
2. I can't use this installer because it was was created on a different MacBook.
What the reason might Be?
