"Mountain Lion Error Code -43"

I'm trying to read some old (10 years+) archive CDs and I'm getting an error code "-43". I'm fearful these discs have outlived their readability. Is this what this code is telling me?
Thanks folks!

Reboot and see whether it goes away.

How long after submitting the serial number does it take to receive your Mountain Lion download code?

I bought my new MacBook Air on July 19 and received it on 26 and on that day I followed the steps to apply for the up-to-date program for Mountain Lion.
I finished the process and got to the final page, where upon successful completion of the forms you receive a reference code. I left that page for a few minutes and went back to copy and write down the code but the page had incurred an error and when I tried to refresh I was sent back to the start of the application process.
After completing the same steps, I got to the serial number input window and clicked 'submit' but alas, it stated that 'This is an already claimed serial number.' as I had previously entered it on my first attempt.
Anyway, I didn't receive any kind of confirmation email for my application and as I have mentioned, there is no way for me to recover my reference number for the first time I filled out the form.
Has anyone else had this same issue and/or not received a confirmation email for their successful submissions and how long does it generally take to receive the Mountain Lion redemption code email from Apple?
Thanks.

You do meet the hardware requirements. Otherwise you wouldn't have been able to purchase ML.
If you're connected wirelessly to your router, connect with Ethernet.
If you're connecting through a proxy, connect directly.
Boot in safe mode (shift key down at startup) and try again.

Mountain lion redeem code doesn't work!!!

Mountain lion redeem code doesn't work!!!

The codes got sent out pre-maturely on the 23rd to some folks. And now on the go-live those codes have been re-used.

In short - wait for a new email from apple.

Trying to upgrade to Mountain Lion, error is message; " product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed"

trying to upgrade to Mountain Lion, error message; " product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed" ??
what to do? This is in App store. I followed the link e-mailed to me that an upgrade was available....... Puzzled.

Several causes for this problem have been reported. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when it's resolved.
Step 1
Back up all data.
From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If any proxy options are selected, make a note of them and then deselect them. You don’t need to change the bypass or FTP settings. Click OK and then Apply. Test. The result may be that you can't connect to any web server. Restore the previous settings if that happens.
Step 2
Rebuild the Spotlight index. If you try to search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, there will be an indication that indexing is in progress.
Step 3
Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

HT1338 when can I expect to get my mountain lion redemption code??

When can i expect to get my mountain lion redemption code, does it really take more than 24 hours??

At the moment yes... can be up to 72 hours... just have to be Patient...

I haven't received my mountain lion redemption code

I have been waiting for 2 hours and haven't recieved my mountain lion redemption code.

Just called Apple Australia, was told it will take 72 hours (that's 3 days) to get code. Glad I bought a new Air, thought I would be able to use ML on the day of release, but clearly that's not going to happen!
So people with older machines ineligible for Up to Date program get to play with ML before people who just spent $$ to get latest versions? Doesn't seem to be particularly balanced approach to me!!!
Shambolic, and clearly not thought out by Apple. How hard would it have been to apply for redemption code AHEAD of the release, so that the code was ready to use on the day of release? Its NOT rocket science!
MAJOR thumbs down.

Cant reinstal mountain lion error -4403F

cant reinstal mountain lion error -4403F

Helps to tell us what the error said...
Try here > Mac App Store: "An unknown error occurred (100)" when purchasing
Might need to temporarily disable anti virus software.
FYI, third party download managers may cause issues when downloading apps including Mountain Lion.
Apps such as Net Nanny, Hands Off, and LIttle Snitch can prevent apps from downloading.
Make sure you are using the same Apple ID associated with your Mac.
Make sure you have the correct App Store country selected. Check the round flag icon bottom right corner of the App Store.

How to retrieve Mountain Lion Upgrade codes ?

I requested my Mountain Lion Upgrade codes on the 26/7 for a Mac Book Pro, and Macbook Air I purchased 2 days before. I received a Claim reference but nothing else since. No emails, nothing. Can I use the claim reference to download the upgrade codes ? If not, how do I retrieve my upgrade codes ?

Keep in mind, 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 using 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.

Mountain Lion content code?

I signed up for the Up To Date program and received a password for a "Mountain Lion content code" file but I never received that file. I emailed [email protected] but no response yet. Has this happened to anyone else?
--- Mike.

I still got no code. So in the meantime, I'm checking into program compatibility with Mountain Lion. So far, everything is looking better than expected. Adobe seems golden. Avid has only two minor issues that shouldn't affect me. And no big problems with Microsoft Office reported either. All the reviews of the OS seem very positive so far, so I'm thinking of being an early adopter, even though I might regret it.
I guess, now that I think about it, maybe it's for my own good that they hold off on sending me a code! Haha... Maybe they'll force me to wait a week or two until the big bugs are discovered and hopefully ironed out...

Problem with unpacking files in Mountain Lion (Error 2)

When I try to pack or unpack files there only come up errors since I updated to ML.
"Error 2 - no file or folder existing". Seems to be a sandbox issue, I tried "The Unarchiever.app" and there it said the OS-sandbox doesn't allow this action. I'm getting kind of annoyed by all the ML-bugs, more problems in the last 7 days since updating than in the 2 years before using Snow Leopard and Lion...
Can anyone help me with this one?
Thanks!

If you are using any system utilities that empty system cache, stop, as they may corrupt files in your operating system. If you are using any system add ons, make doubly sure they are Mountain Lion compatible.

Weird Mountain Lion Error: Not Writing to Disk

I've been having a problem where my MBP running Mountain Lion.
Since updating to 10.8.2, my computer will randomly lose its the ability to read and write to disk. Files will not save, keychain access fails (asking me to reenter my passwords, which I won't do), and apps will not open (stuck bouncing on the dock).
Booting into safe mode and/or resetting PRAM appears to fix this, but it's happened three times already. Because I cannot save my documents, all data is lost. Disk Utility does not find any drive errors or permissions problems.

I still can't figure this out. It seems to happen after I have moved my computer from one location to another after putting my Mac to sleep. (Trouble waking from sleep? Different wifi signal?)
I thought rebooting helped, but one time, I restarted my computer in class (after experiencing this problem) and the applications still wouldn't save. I reset the PRAM, and it was fixed (for now). This has happened to three times already.
Reported my problem here. Hope Apple is listening.

Did this start with 10.8.2 for you as well?
