Re: Trying to reinstall operating system, not sure if I did it right
Surely it could not have taken you five hours to install Lion. That is impossible. Maybe to install Lion, set everything up, and install all of your apps, but even then something just doesn't add up.

Hi, I highly doubt you needed to reinstall for that. That's a known issue in Lion, where Voiceover will not speak at the login field, even though it's set to.

RE: Trying to reinstall operating system, not sure if I did it right
LOL! That is an understatement: VO start-up under lion being buggy. A few months ago, I did a clean install to see if it would help, but as far as I was concerned, the clean install had way more quirks than my upgrade install. Thank God for Carbon Copy Cloner; I just restored my original lion install, and have resigned myself to dealing with VO's quirks. Every time a lion update is released, I keep hoping they'll fix whatever they broke, but so far, no dice. I'm a bit nervous about Mountain Lion, but hopefully it will end up being better than Lion. I guess only time will tell. I guess the poit is that I agree with Daniel; reinstalling lion to fix that 1 little quirk was probably overkill, but at least Apple has made the OS installation accessible, so if nothing else, I suppose it was good mac practice. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Daniel Miller Sent: Saturday, May 05, 2012 3:47 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Trying to reinstall operating system, not sure if I did it right Hi, I highly doubt you needed to reinstall for that.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I believe it's an understatement. But, apple does learn from things that are buggy in a previous release, for the most part.

Re: Trying to reinstall operating system, not sure if I did it right
It was almost like it just booted up normally. I didn't know how to do it, so I probably did it wrong. But o yes, there must be a pod cast for that too since my questions are too inconvenient for the listers to answer and I need to be spoon fed and am too lazy aparently to look it up.

Re: Trying to reinstall operating system, not sure if I did it right
Is it a bug in Lion that sometimes, it will go to the log in screen and sometimes, it will just go to the desktop? that was the major problem. It was getting a little rediculous that I was having to boot my system twice to get it to boot up in the desk top like it's supposed to. all the settings are correct. Jenny On May 5, 2012, at 2:46 PM, Daniel Miller wrote: Hi, I highly doubt you needed to reinstall for that. That's a known issue in Lion, where Voiceover will not speak at the login field, even though it's set to. In fact, there are bugs with VO starting on startup in lion in general. I've reported them to Apple for investigation, so perhaps they'll be addressed in Mountain Lion. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jenny Keller Sent: Saturday, May 05, 2012 2:44 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Trying to reinstall operating system, not sure if I did it right I don't know yet, I only turned on my computer once since then and it went directly to the desk top, but that doesn't mean anything, it only means that it hasn't had time to act weird yet.

Re: Trying to reinstall operating system, not sure if I did it right
I can't say to much here because of my agreement with the dev team. But I can say you will be pleasantly surprised with mountain lion. And the reason it took five hours to reinstall lion, is because I erased my hard drive first. Sorry, should have specified that. On May 5, 2012, at 2:51 PM, Missy Hoppe wrote: LOL! That is an understatement: VO start-up under lion being buggy. A few months ago, I did a clean install to see if it would help, but as far as I was concerned, the clean install had way more quirks than my upgrade install. Thank God for Carbon Copy Cloner; I just restored my original lion install, and have resigned myself to dealing with VO's quirks. Every time a lion update is released, I keep hoping they'll fix whatever they broke, but so far, no dice. I'm a bit nervous about Mountain Lion, but hopefully it will end up being better than Lion. I guess only time will tell. I guess the poit is that I agree with Daniel; reinstalling lion to fix that 1 little quirk was probably overkill, but at least Apple has made the OS installation accessible, so if nothing else, I suppose it was good mac practice. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Daniel Miller Sent: Saturday, May 05, 2012 3:47 PM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Trying to reinstall operating system, not sure if I did it right Hi, I highly doubt you needed to reinstall for that.
