Yesterday, I purchased Mountain Lion OSX and tried to download it but I don't think the download worked.  How can I tell if I am using Mountain Lion and how do I get help if the download was unsuccessful?

Click your Apple menu icon top left corner of your screen.
From the drop down menu click About This Mac.
If Mountain Lion is installed, it will say:  v10.8
If not, launch the App Store. From the App Store menu bar click Store > Check for Unfinished Downloads
FYI ..  for downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store, a high speed (broadband) internet connection is strongly recommended by Apple as noted here > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
If you need to reinstall OS X or repair the the startup disk Mountain Lion Recovery, that requires broadband access to the internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the internet form Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation.

  • Ipad 2 - 30gb and running out of space, but i don't have that many movies - can anyone help

    ipad 2 - 30gb and running out of space, but i don't have that many movies - can anyone help?  How do i find a directory of files that I can manage (PC user)?
    thanks!

    You might have to do some experimenting from iTunes on your computer.
    Several months back, I had a phantom 5G of video.  I unchecked ALL video files and synced the iPad and the 5G was still there.  I was able to delete the 5G and bring it back by repeatedly unchecking and checking the "Sync Movies" box.
    A "Restore" solved my problem.  Be forewarned that it's not quick:
    Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • How can I tell if Adobe Flash is installed properly and upto date version?

    How can I tell if Adobe Flash is installed properly and upto date version?
    Hi Guys and girls, hopefully an easy question for you.
    I installed Adobe flash and lightsource last night, cos I needed it to run Weebly website maker.
    Anyone know if Weebly runs correctly on 10.9.1??
    I have a new comp, so no previous version of flash on here, I am running OSX 10.9.1
    I just want to know How I can tell if Adobe Flash is installed properly and is the upto date version?
    Where do I go in the comp to find out,
    If I type in Adobe flash into search it only brings up flash manager, when I click this it is an uninstaller program.
    Lightsource shows in finder apps.
    If I type in flash player it shows up in plugins with a version number see screen shot.
    Where would I go to check for updates for things like flash on my comp?
    Thanks Team,
    Jason in oz.   :?):)  

    1. Safari > Preferences > Security > Internet Plug-ins
        Allow Plug-ins
    2. Go to this Adobe site to check. You will see the animation above the tree.

  • Updating PS CC 2014--how can I tell if I am using the latest version?

    I just updated Bridge, PS and LR from the Creative Cloud, but when I went to use them, I was still using the old versions despite the fact that CC said I had updated to the latest versions.  A thread in the LR forum led me to sign out and back into Creative Cloud, and that did the trick for LR.  However, I cannot discern any changes in PS.  How can I tell if I am using the latest version of PS?  When I click on About Photoshop, the popup says:
    TIA.

    that's the latest ps as of today.

  • How can I tell when a text message is  received and opened

    how can I tell when a txt message has been received and opened ?

    Correction: How will I know when a SMS or MMS text message has been received and opened when the person I'm texting has an Android phone ? My last phone was Android and had a setting that notified me when my sent texts were received by someone. Just got my iPhone about a week ago.  Totally different.

  • My ical will not let me add events it saying my calender was created by mail.  How can I change this.  We use mobile me and synch

    Does anyone know how I can add events to my desktop ical when the message I receive says that the calender was created by Mail
    I do not know how this happened.  I managed to synch and change this some months ago but I do not know how!

    Hi Cara,
    Welcome to Discussions.
    With iCal closed, try deleting it's preference file (User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iCal.plist).
    If this does not work try repairing permissions. Open Disk Utility (Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility) and select your boot volume on the left and click Repair Permissions.
    If neither of these work post back.

  • How can I extend my wireless network using Airport Express and an Airport Extreme on BT Infinity?

    I have BT Infinity and I am using the Time Capsule with Airport Extreme as my router. Working well (even on wireless). I want to extend the wireless network with an Airport Express, but I cannot work out the settings necessary in Airport Utility. I am using Mountain Lion 10.8.2 on a Mac Pro. Please help!

    BT,
    I've read several of your posts, thanks for taking the time to share your wealth of knowledge.
    I'm in a situation similar to the one described by 'scoutusmaximus'.  Seeking the flexibility of a standalone router, I finally upgraded my 4-yr old ATT DSL gateway (modem+router) to a Comcast standalone modem + the ASUS RT-AC66U: http://www.asus.com/Networks/Wireless_Routers/RTAC66U/
    Typically, I stick with all things Apple but the ASUS router seemed fairly superior to the current-gen base station (on paper, anyway; time will tell when it comes to performance) so, for once, I jumped ship.  My plan was to extend the ASUS wired/wireless network using my TimeCapsule and 2 Airport Expresses in bridge mode, however, a google search turned up several unhappy customers that claim those devices don't play well with non-Apple routers, especially when it comes to 'extending' a network. 
    Questions:
    1. Can I successfully extend the wired/wireless network created by the ASUS router using the 3 airport devices listed above w/out negatively impacting performance?  I'd rather have 1 wireless network as opposed to creating a new wireless network with the TC and then extending it with the AP Expresses... though I'd consider that option down the line if it came to that.
    2. Will the LAN ports on the TimeCapsule remain functional?
    Btw, my house is wired so, I can reach all 3 devices via ethernet cable coming off of a central, managed switch.  Supposedly, you only lose the LAN ports on the TC if you extend wirelessly.
    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    If you want to add fields to a list, as you have written your form in JavaScript, you can take consideration of using JavaScript Client Object Model to add/delete fields dynamically.
