Re: Security preferences and FileVault

No, my friend's mac is just fine. In fact I never experienced the issues some 
of you are having, but then again I paid attention to the dialogues noting what 
I wanted and did not want. It is important to go slow even if you know what you 
are doing as every upgrade is going to be different.

FireVolt is great. Without it, it’s surprising how easy it is to get 
access to someone’s data on their Mac even if they have a password. It’s 
particularly useful on a MacBook if you don’t want people having access to 
everything on your Mac if you lose it or it’s stolen. And once you know 
what the beeps mean at login, the process is perfectly accessible. It’s 
important to learn what the beeps mean though, as I stuffed it up the 
first time and had to decrypt and encrypt again. One beep is to type in 
the user name, two beeps is to type in your password, and three beeps 
means you are logging in. If you type the username or password 
incorrectly, it just repeats the relevant beep signal.

Re: Security preferences and FileVault

[Michael Marshall]

For anyone that may be thinking of doing a clean install to fix the problem 
don’t bother, it doesn’t work. Eventually I had to go into the Apple store and 
they had to connect the computer to their own networks and they did something 
to fix it.
Even if you know file vault is off once you installed Yosemite you will most 
likely face this problem.
Right now when I go into disk utility instead of seeing the manufacturer and a 
whole series of numbers as the first level of my HD all i see are to Macintosh 
HD labels.
The first level of the hard drive should contain tabbs such as first aid, erase 
and so forth but you only get first aid and partition.

Yes it is, and they are not paying attention to the dialogue. This happens
only I think on a  clean install. I'll have to find out as I plan on doing a
clean install in about 2 weeks just to clean up any crud.

Take care.

Re: Security preferences and FileVault

[Mark Adreon]

I unlocked the file vault.  It didn’t take very much time and Idon’t have a lot 
of data on my MacAir as of yet.  Not until I get comfortable with this tool.  

Question?  How do I know the file lock is off for all files on the computer?

Re: Security preferences and FileVault

[Nicholas Parsons]

Yes, there was a dialog during setup which asked whether you wanted to turn on 
Firevolt. At least that was my experience.

FireVolt is great. Without it, it’s surprising how easy it is to get access to 
someone’s data on their Mac even if they have a password. It’s particularly 
useful on a MacBook if you don’t want people having access to everything on 
your Mac if you lose it or it’s stolen. And once you know what the beeps mean 
at login, the process is perfectly accessible. It’s important to learn what the 
beeps mean though, as I stuffed it up the first time and had to decrypt and 
encrypt again. One beep is to type in the user name, two beeps is to type in 
your password, and three beeps means you are logging in. If you type the 
username or password incorrectly, it just repeats the relevant beep signal.

in my case I didn't know in the setup not to turn it on and so I accepted it.

Re: Security preferences and FileVault

[Michael Marshall]

The Apple genius I spoke to said that this is indeed the case. It is turned off 
when the system is fully installed but it does something. It locks your drive 
technically so if you are ever going to partition don’t! I know from experience 
that things go very wrong.
I have even tried unlocking my drive from the recovery partition but it's still 
no go. As I said, Drive still works fine but I want it unlocked as I did not 
ask it to be locked in the first place.
