Since installing Mountain Lion my Safari will not access my contacts list when wanting to forward an e-mail or send a new one. Why?

Since installing Mountain Lion I am unable to access my contacts list in Safari to forward an e-mail or send a new one. The Insert contacts link above the address box is not active and will not access the Contacts List. How can I fix this?

Can you open Contacts and edit, insert, and delete cards, or does it fail to work, also?

Since installing Mountain Lion I cannot access my address book whentrying to send or forward an e-mail. How can I fix this?

Since installing Mountain Lion I am unable to access my address book when sending or forwarding an e-mail. The insert address link at the top does not function. Previously it would be blue and would respond when clicked on now it does nothing. Is there a fix for this?

Since downloading OS X Mountain Lion my WordSearch9 will not open. I got a message that X11 was not supported and directed to a sited to download XQuartz. Now when I try to launch WordSearch9 I get a message "X11 cannot be found.

Since downloading OS X Mountain Lion my WordSearch9 will not open. I got a message saying that X11 was not supported and directed to a site to download an update "XQuartz" which I did. Now when I try to launch WordSearch9 I get a message "X11 cannot be found". I did follow the instructions to download and install XQuartz, but there still seems to be a problem. Anyone have an idea?

Your report indicates Mountain Lion, but your footer indicates Lion. I'll assume you're on 10.8.2; on the current Mountain Lion version.
Rebooting is fine.
The posted diagnostics look like there might be a problem with the Xquartz install, or it is not starting, or it's not authorized for the sandbox. (But I don't know enough about that to be certain.)
Try launching X11.app directly from your Applications > Utilities folder, and see if that works, or if shows any dialog boxes, or that reports any errors.
If you had an Xquartz kit installed and it's not the 2.7.4 (current) Xquartz kit, then please update to that version. (I'm assuming that site is where you got your Xquartz kit from, too.)
I'd also suggest also discussing this more directly with the Xquartz folks via mailing list or the IRC channel, or collecting up the Xquartz logs and then posting a bug over at the Xquartz site; here are the details on bug reporting for Xquartz.

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Since installing mountain lion i have a problem with mail. when i delete a message close and open mail the message has come back. please help!

Since installing Mountain Lion i have a problem with Mail. I delete a number of messages from the same person but keep the newest message in my Inbox. I actually delete them from the Trash. The next time i open Mail the deleted messages are back again. Can anybody please help as this is getting annoying. Thanks in Anticipation.

Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
find ~ $TMPDIR.. $ -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl $ 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply.

Replicable crash since installing Mountain Lion

I seem to be having a near fatal crash since upgrading my Late 2008 Macbook Pro to Mountain Lion. When I pause and unpause a Youtube video everything freezes and the logout text screen (the verbose mode text that you see when the system is logging out) is overlayed onto the Safari 6.0 browser and then the computer restarts itself! This has never occured in my entire life of owning an Apple computer (since the early 1980s) and now it happens about 50% of the time since installing Mountain Lion.
Initially I did an upgrade from Lion as I have upgrade all of my Macs since the beginning of OS X, but after the first crash, I did a completely clean install (wiped and reformatted the hardrvie which is less than one year old) and reinstalled Mountain Lion from a USB key backup that I made. Problem still occurs.
Any help is greatly appreciated as this is quite worrysome! Below is the error log I received upon restart:

Library is a folder, not a file. There're more than one Library folders, one at the root and one for each user in your Mac. All of them are hidden, this is why you can't find them. But you can see their contents using
Finder Menu > Go > Go to Folder
And then type:
~/Library
for your Library Folder
-or-
/Library
for the root Library folder.

Is anyone else losing their internet connection since installing mountain lion?

since installing mountain lion when I come home from work safari won't pick up the internet connection without rebooting. Once rebooting everything works fine until the next day when I incur the same issue. Any thoughts?

Are you on 10.8.2 as ypur profile says? If so, it's worth updating to 10.8.3 which was released last week.

Here's a link to some suggestions that helped some users with similar problems in Lion. May still be relevant to MLion. Also check the links within the article:

Also when I had wifi problems in the past, creating a new network location resolved it:

I've also seen threads where users with wifi problems have successfully solved them by changing the channel in the router's wifi settings.

I am having issues with my external hard drives since installing Mountain Lion

I am unable to get my time machine to backup consistently on my external hard drives since installing Mountain Lion. One of my drives seems to have lost all data since installing Mountain Lion. Is this problem cropping up with other folks? BTW, all of my drives are Lacie brand.

Do you mean, when you select it to be used for backups, the Preferences window shows "none"? If so, that's not a problem. That doesn't get updated until the next backup to that disk is finished. See #B3 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting

Since installing Mountain Lion, Outlook 2011 crashes

Since installing Mountain Lion, Outlook 2011 crashes.   A few seconds after opening I get this error message
"Microsoft Outlook must be closed because an error occurred. Any unsaved work may be lost."
Tried rebooting, haven't yet tried reinstalling Outlook from disc.
Other apps seem OK so far.
Help is greatly appreciated.

Reinstalling Office 2011 did not fix the problem, but on the Microsoft.com/mac site I found instructions for rebuilding the Outlook database (Identity).    This worked, I no longer have the problem with Outlook 2011 Mac.

Cannot send mail since installing mountain lion

I'm using aol mail. I receive mail with no problems. Since installing Mountain Lion on my new Mac when I try to send mail I get a message that I can't send using aol server. Mail settup indicates everything is working fine. I have no problems sending mail with a Macbook Pro and a PC on the same wireless network.

This seemed to work for me: First be sure all your mail is stored on the server (eg AOL) or you may lose it. If it is NOT stoerd on the server, DON'T DO THIS
In Mail Preferences / accounts, use the -(minus) sign to delete All of your accounts one by one
Now use the + to add account, and reinstall all of your accounts one by one.
It does seem to work and mail is now sent

I have an 10.6.8 and I need to download mountain lion, but it will not let me. How do I get it to download?

I have a mac with a 10.6.8 opperating system and I tired downloading mountain lion, but it will not let me. How do I get my mac to allow me to? I'm pretty sure you have to have 10.7, but I dont know how to download that either

Does your MacBook meet the minimum requirements for Mountain Lion?
Your Mac must be one of the following models:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)

Since installing mountain lion on my late 2008 macbook the cd/dvd drive isn't working won't ejects cd.

since installing mountain lion on my late 2008 aluminum macbook the cd/dvd super drive isnt working won't play or import media/music just ejects cd.
Any Ideas ?
