In reference to support.apple.com/kb/HT4764:

Resolve an issue in which an admin user account could be missing after upgrading to OS X Lion.

Think I'll hang on for another point update or so...

I bought a machine with Lion pre-installed, that shouldn't be affecting me surely?

I wouldn't imagine so, but I'm still running Snow Leopard.

I normally log in with a Standard account, but I would have been rather less than amused if I'd upgraded and my Admin account had gone missing... and if they can miss an upgrade bug like that, I'll wait.

I was hoping they'd cure the mess up with audio rendering which happens with Lion and Final Cut Pro X. I'd roll back to snow leopard, but as far as I can tell, you can't roll back Mail, it's a one way street, but I hope someone proves me wrong.

10.7.1 has fixed an intermittent problem I was having with my WD Elements 1TB external drives. Finder would 'see' them but could not always access the content. Applied to a Core i5 Air and an iMac Core 2 Duo.

It's a shame it has not resolved the time machine issue with the WD mybookworld nas drive, or most nas drives to be precise.

Lion takes a wee bit longer to boot up compared to SL, but I STILL like it and some of the extra's. I s'pose.

Don't agree. It's perhaps the way you install. Did you upgrade an existing SL or go for a 'clean' install? I wiped one of my iMacs and installed Lion. Re-installed all apps, Photoshop & Lightroom being the main ones. Performance is better, boot-up is certainly quicker.

Did an upgrade install, mine is certainly slower. I don't mind so much as I switch on and go and make a cup of coffee before sitting down.
It's seems to be taking longer before it gets to the Apple showing. I have a bootcamp partition and of course the recovery partition. It could be something to do with that, or maybe not.

I did agree already.

My experience of Lion is that it is total rubbish. I have had total iMac freezes & crashes, something I had not seen since my Windows days. Java applet mostly does not load, flash slows the system, the system is overloaded with gumph which makes it very slow, with most operations causing the spinning beach ball. It is not compatible with my Epsom Stylus 22 printer, and both Firefox & Safari will freeze or crash with too many tabs open. many are reporting all these problems. A total nightmare for me. Like others, I am close to switching to one of my W7 boxes as a main machine.

I've seen none of these problems you describe. Perhaps it's a bad install, try a clean install.

I would not be silly enough to do anything other than a clean install of Lion. These problems are widespread.

I have no problems either, running Lion on a mid 2007 MBP (2.2GHz core-2 duo) and mid 2010 iMac (quad core i5 27"). I currently have 19 safari windows open and one of those has 10 tabs.
