10.6.8 to 10.8.5 lion update

Hello guys,.

Greetings!

I use MacBook snow leopard 10.6.8 have now I switch to lion 10.8.5. My Mac has 8 GB of ram and 250 GB HDD. My mac runs smoothly with lion or I have to use only OS X 10.6.8.

All suggestions and advice are welcome...

Thank you in advance for your valuable time and support.

Sincerely,

Rohit_03

10.7.5 lion, Mountain Lion is 10.8.5, so I'm not sure whether you are planning an upgrade to. Regardless, 8 GB of RAM should be plenty to run either of these versions.

However, some applications may be incompatible or behave differently after the upgrade. You can check here for compatibility: https://roaringapps.com/apps.

If you improve and find that the performance of your Mac is not as good, you can run EtreCheck after the upgrade and view the report in a thread here and someone can help find you the cause: http://etresoft.com/etrecheck. However, I suspect that the performance should be fine after the upgrade.

  • the c4500 ps lion update is "not available at this time" by apple. That is what it is?

    The Photosmart c4500 driver update for lion is "not available at this time" by Apple, even though the HP website indicates that Lion is supported for this printer and updates can be made by Apple. That is what it is?

    It seems like a connectivity issue with the Apple software update server.

    Download and install the following package, which will add any driver available from apple for your Mac OS servers:

    http://support.Apple.com/downloads/DL907/en_US/HPPrinterDrivers2.8.dmg

    After completing the installation, click on the more button under Print & Scan and add the printer.

    Please let me know of any problems,

    Since the Lion or Mountain Lion, we had an annoying problem where the last folder location is not known in Illustrator. For example what update of links on several files, here for the location of the folder back to the last, was used, but that would be at certain levels of file 3 superior.

  • Formatting my Mac problems

    I have been formatted my mac when I kept getting the common error of "this article is temporarily unavailable." I tried to solve it through Googling each solution, then just by buying a license for Lion, as my mac was used. Now I need to install this license Internet Recovery mode, considering that my Mac is unusable without the BONES. Suggestions or answers?

    First of all, you must erase the drive, then install Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Download the setup of Lion from the App Store and the Lion update to use it.

    It would be useful that you tell us exactly which model you have: find the model identifier open system information in the Utilities folder. It is displayed in the Panel on the right. If you received the original software that came with the computer restore disks, then we need to know what version of Mac OS X, they install. If it's a version of Snow Leopard, then you can start installing it on the computer.

    Snow Leopard erase and install

    1. Insert the Snow Leopard DVD in the optical drive and restart the computer.
    2. Immediately after hearing the chime hold down the C key.
    3. Release the button when the Apple logo appears and wait for loading to complete.
    4. After the installer loads, choose your language and click on the continue button. When the menu bar appears select utility drive in the Utilities menu.  After disk utility charges select the entry out-bumpy in the list aside (mfgr. size ID and disc drive.)  In the right side of the disk utility window, click the Partition tab.  Set the number of partitions of one (1) in the menu dropdown. Click the Options button and select GUID, click on OK, the value of the Mac OS Extended journaled format type. Finally, click on the apply button.
    5. Once the format is complete, quit disk utility.  Continue with the installation of OS X and follow the directions.
    6. Once installation is complete, the computer will restart in the installation wizard. After completing the Setup Wizard, you will use a new installation of Snow Leopard. Open the software update and install updates recommended.
    7. Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 v1.1 updated Combo. If necessary.

  • Printer skips lines and enlarged fonts between pages based on the web.

    bold text Range of printers HP c7200 connected wireless to MacBookPro w/Lion. Using the browser Firefox to version 9.0.1. Printer prints the first page very well, then the second page starts by skipping several lines and large print. PC connected to the same printer, and printer works OK. Safari works OK, too. Solutions would be appreciated.

    Problem started before the upgrade to Mac Lion. Lion updated printer driver. The same problem. Only happens when I try to print a web page or something downloaded from a web page, like a financial spreadsheet. Non-Web-based print OK. Help. Thank you.

  • White/gray startup screen on MacBook 2007

    I will try to summarize this question better than I can. I started with my 2007 MacBook running OS X Tiger. I bought the DVD to install Snow Leopard from Apple. MacBook, updated to Snow Leopard, it's all right. Next, I downloaded OS X Lion on the app store. Mac Lion update successfully, it's all right. I set everything up, them at the end of the day, I have connected my external hard drive to use as my disk backup time capsule. Before going to sleep, I started the backup, the progress has been shown in this backup. The next day, I wake up to find a screen completely white on the mac. Turn it off, on back, white screen. Spoke with apple support, got a little help. We have tried to reinstall the OS with disk installation dvd (using c) nothing, but a folder with an exclamation mark inside it appeared. Even with the challenging r command. We have tried everything, I want to. You have any ideas here? I would prefer not to have to drive out to the apple store and pay to get professional help. If you need more features on the details, as I said already, ask a way. I really appreciate the help.

    Ask that your ad be moved to the correct forum for a 13 "MacBook space (2006-20010).

    But if you actually have a MacBook Air, it's a region of different forum as well.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 909 a will not be re - install Mac 10.7.5

    I am very frustrated with this issue, I'll have. Here are the bullets:

    • Running Mac 10.7.5 (Lion).  Printer is connected to this computer through the USB port.
    • Has started to receive messages on my all-in-one HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 909 a scanning would work not and check the documentation for the aid.
    • While looking online and through some troubleshooting, I deleted my print printer to attempt to reinstall fees.

    The main problem I encounter is that I can't seem to re - install this printer no matter what I try.  Here's what I tried...

    • Tried to launch the HP (ver 2.3.15) CONFIGURATION UTILITY and DEVICE MANAGER HP (1.5.8) that was installed on this machine for the printer.  When going through the Setup utility, my device is not seen, so it is considered for a screen and then I invited me with a message that says that my device is not supported by the installer and I had to go to hp.com/support for more help.
    • When I go through SYS PREF > PRINT & FAX and try to click on the '+' to add a PRINTER, the printer never shows in the choice of 'default' as being same / connected.
    • When I go to find help on the support site, the indications only can I find tell me I should use for the Lion, update the Apple software to download the latest update (which I'm sure has already downloaded on this machine in the past).  Tried to restart my Mac, reboot and disconnect all the wires between the printer and Mac, to see if it would work the update of software this printer is connected.
    • I scoured the HP website to try to find the "utility installation hp for lion" install file, but it doesn't seem to be available as a manual download - each direction pointing right back on software updater.

    It is where I am at-I feel like I'm stuck in this small black hole where I can't use the HP Installer on this machine b/c it is too old and I can't download something 'new' of Apple Software Updater.  I did go to the Apple website and download the drivers for Mac OS x Mountain Lion & Lion. I have installed for this machine, restart and still nothing that shows this as a connected USB printer.

    Help, please.

  • LaserJet 1536DNf not print duplex

    I'm on Lion 10.7.3 and have a Laserjet 1536DNF MFP. I can no longer print duplex even if I select a double bond and long edge on the layout. I don't know when it started - maybe after the last update. As far as I KNOW, I have the latest drivers from Apple. All solutions?

    I checked this and the PPD file seems correct. At first, I thought it was the result of the 10.7.3 lion update, but now I don't know because I tried printing with my old laptop MacBookPro on Snow Leopard. Maybe the Lion update screwed a few settings in the printer? Thanks for your help.
