Bugs in MACOSX Lion 10.7.5

I did upgrade to Lion OSX version 10.7.5 and I'm having several problems with crashes on my IMAC 22 Color I5 14GB RaM.

First is that I use VMWare and the previous version (10.7.4) all my OSes virtualized worked perfectly, from this version upgrade stopped everything. I have no backup nor the Time machime and would like to know if there is a possibility to download the 10.7.4 version of OSX Lion and install this version that was 100% stable and without any bug.

Brazil - MacOSX Lion - running on an IMAC 22 with 14GB Ram, 500GB HD, Intel i5.

ps: I'm 100% disappointed and perplexed at how the quality of Apple fell from the death of Steve Jobs, never buy anything from Apple.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

FWIW, a 7 pass erase took 18 hours on my 1 TB iMac when I was getting it ready to sell it. 35 pass means it will write zero's 35 times across your entire hard drive - if it's 1 TB, it'll take a couple of days. And, 35 pass is not necessary - 7 pass already complies with government standards of non-recoverability.

Dear Pete,

If you only knew how to read, I was good and sure you would understand what everyone is understanding.

Mister babowa, yes I agree, but in desperation I thought I'd a more aggressive approach, only finally figured out the real problem, although I found that it might be the HDD'd only a problem, I discovered that it was momória ram.

Unwittingly, you great help, thank you.

I will detail the problem better soon, what I found and what I did, so it can generate more discussion about what happened.

?????😕😕????? Sorry? If you do not state things we cannot read your mind. It doesn't appear by reading this thread that anybody has much idea at all about what you wat or are doing. But glad you fixed it. Babowa mentioned RAM in a very early reply.

computers are electronic parts which can develop hardware problems; hard drives can fail, RAM and/or many other parts can fail; software can become corrupted because some third party incompatible app was installed, so it needs to be reinstalled.

Maybe a readjusting of attitude would encourage others to bother helping you. No need to report back, unless your follow up is factual and clear and something that will actually help others.😉

Cheers

Pete
