Speakers no longer work after Mountain Lion update.

After my update of Mountain Lion my speakers in my macbook pro no longer work. The speaker symbol is grey and the volume can't be moved. Anyone else have this issue?

Seems there is no real solution to this problem. If you have a time machine backup you can go back to 10.7.2.
Since I did the clean install of 10.7.2, I don't have any audio problems. My MacBook Pro now runs smoothly. I guess I stick with 10.7.2 until 10.7.4 is released.
You can also try some of these suggstions: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3705456?start=15&tstart=0
Hope you get your audio working.

Facetime not working after Mountain Lion update

I have a Macbook Pro. After I updated to Mountain Lion (from Lion), Facetime no longer works. I've tried with multiple people, but they aren't receiving my calls and I'm not receiving their calls. In Lion Facetime worked fine, but now it's not working. I also can't get iMessages to work. This is very frustrating, because I was really looking forward to iMessages. My Macbook Pro is still new, I purchased it in the first week August (2012). It came with Lion already installed. It's only 2 months old now. So I know my computer can support all of Mountain Lion's features. By the way, I'm running on Mountain Lion 10.8.2. Any help would be great! Thanks

Hi,
The two may be linked as there is a common support app called IMAgent that helps with both Messages and FaceTime.
Shut down both apps.
With the Finder as the Front App > use the Go Menu > Hold down ALT key and select Library.
In the Library find and open th Preferences Folder
Find com.apple.IMAgent.plist and drag it to the Trash
Before restarting the App now go to Activity Monitor in Applications/Utilities.
Find imagent (it is in lower case).
Highlight and use the Quit button.
Now restart the app(s).
This will recreate the .plist from defaults.

Open Recent function won't work after Mountain Lion updates

I recently did a fresh install of mountain lion (after using snow leopard for years). iWork, which came with my MacBook Pro worked great, until the update. Obviously I had to do a fresh install of iWork 09 from the CD I had. I then updated iWork through the software update. Now running pages 4.3 etc.
However, for pages and numbers I can't get the Open Recent function to work. It's just empty, no matter how many docs I've opened or worked on.
Any tips??
Thanks in advance for any assitance.

Menu > Pages > Preferences > General Preferences > For New Documents: check Show Template Chooser
When you now open Pages it will show you an open dialog with the option to look for those files either in your iCloud folder or on the regualr place on your Mac.
Personally I prefer the File Menu > Recent.

2010 Mini superdrive has stopped working after Mountain Lion update - anyone else?

After updating to 10.8 the superdrive on my 2010 mini has completely stopped working. It will not accept any disks. Disk Utility sees the drive as a working drive. Anyone else having this issue? If yes and you've resolved it, how??

Same thing happened to me with Mountain Lion. It seems that at the moment there's no solution. I've tried to burn a DVD with Toast Titanium, iDVD and the SimplyBurn. All of them failed.
It's a shame that Apple did this because we pay for a computer with a drive that could burn DVD discs. I´m very, very disappointed with Apple!

HT1338 early 2012 macbook air clamshell mode not working after mountain lion update

Can't make 2012 MBA 13" work in clamshell mode after updating to Mountain Lion. All peripheral devices are connected, as is AC power. Closing lid causes external monitor to enter sleep mode (presumably, the MBA is going to sleep as well).
Power settings are set to stay awake when on AC power.
Thank you.

Why do gestures stop working after Mountain Lion update?

I've just installed Mountain Lion on my MBP, and soon after a reboot, gestures stop working.
Rebooting fixes this, at least temporarily. But soon afterwards I can't switch between screens with three finger swipe etc.
Yes, gestures are enabled in preferences.
Any clues?

Having same issue with iMac and Magic Mouse.
I found that Mission Control stopped working as well (even with the App shortcut in Applications) and as such found a quicker workaround than login / logout. Open Terminal and type:
killall Dock
This will restart the Dock and Mission Control etc and seems to restore the gestures.
Cheers
Phil

Trackpad click not working after Mountain Lion update

I updated computer in question, a 2009 MacBook, to Mountain Lion today, and it appeared to work. It installed, then I was prompted with a log-in screen. I entered my Apple ID and password, but was unable to click go. Easily hit enter instead; this worked. The next screen, however is a Terms and Conditions one with only the options of "Back" and "Next." I cannot click on either of these. The mouse moves around perfectly when I use the track pad, but I am unable to choose anything by clicking and therefore cannot get past this screen and to my computer. Any help?? Thank you!

On 2011 iMac, External Altec Lansing speakers no longer work after upgrading to Mountain Lion. They DO work on a lenovo machine but not my imac

On 2011 iMac, External Altec Lansing speakers no longer work after upgrading to Mountain Lion.
They DO work on a lenovo machine but not my iMac. reset Pram - no luck. took speakers from wife's desktop, they
do not work when jack plugged into my iMac - Sys Prefs "SOUND" only lists "internal speakers/ built in" as available options.
I used my altec lansing speakers on 3 macs including this one for 5-6 years.....now with Mountian Lion I can only get internal speakers???
Ideas? Any/All help would be greatly appreciated - been going nuts with this for 2 days now.

Hi,
When you start Messages fro the first time you are asked for an Apple ID
When this is verified and entered it appears in Messages Menu > Preference > Accounts and is Enabled.
The App should have also picked on on those iChat Accounst you had before.
These should be Enabled if they were when you last used iChat.
Exactly which "Accounts" are logged in can be seen in Message Menu > Accounts and will include the iMessage "Account" and Bonjour.
In the Window menu you will see CMD +0 for the Messages window and CMD+1 for the "Buddies" window which is a combined list at this stage.
Go to the Preferences > General Section and Untick the "Collect all accounts into one list".
This will give you separate iChat type Buddy lists.
You can check if that account/Buddy list is set to Invisible or if in the Preferences > Accounts > Security you have settings that will block some people from seeing you as On line.
You are saying Buddies can see you as On Line which implies they are still sending to your AIM based Names (@Mac.com is a valid AIM Screen Name)
I am not sure from your post if you are trying to iMessage their email IDs thinking they are Apple IDs and that they are using Messages as well.
There is no Buddy list for iMessages side
No-one can tell you are "On Line" until they have your details in the "To" spot in Messages with the correct iMessaged contact info (iPhone Number or Apple ID)
Obviously an Apple ID can be an email or look like one.
In some cases they are also valid AIM Screen Names as well.
In the case or the @mac.com name you may have linked this Apple ID to iMessages as well.

SD Card not showing after Mountain Lion Update

This matter has been discussed for some time now in
Apple Support Communities > Desktop Computers > iMac (Intel) > Discussions
SD Card not showing after Mountain lion Update
Since the update to Mountain Lion, the SD slot does not show up in Finder.
Someone gave a fix using the killall in Terminal, and that worked only once. I have not been able to get that fix to work again.
The only saving grace for me is that my SD Card us is always from my Nikon camera, and Nikon ViewNX 2 software is able to see and read from the card.
Killall may have worked partially in that I no longer get the error message telling me that I have removed the SD card improperly, and need to dismount it first.
However, Finder still cannot see it.

Thanks, Barney ...
Those are basics ... Been there, done that, first.
Then you should hava posted all the troubleshooting you already accomplished.
Does the card show up in System Information? Or is that another one of the "basics" you've already looked into?
Does it show up in Disk Utility? If so, have you tried formatting it there to determine if it is a formatting problem?

Restoring Snow Leopard after Mountain Lion update, last complete backup in March?

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard, but many of our kids' apps no longer work, so I'd like to go back. Using the Snow Leopard install disk, I know I can restore from one of my Time Machine backups. Unfortunately the last complete backup was in March, and that's most recent version the software says I can select. I would like to restore my machine to its state the day before I upgraded to Mountain Lion.
If I restore to its March state - the last complete backup - can I then restore it to its state in July? How do I do it?
Thanks for your help!
Don

DragonDonaldo,
Going back to your original post, are the applications that no longer work in Mountain Lion Power PC applications? If so, have you checked with the developers of those applications to see if newer versions are available? Updating those applications would save you the grief of having to backtrack on your OS.
Option #2 would be to create a second partition on your drive (or use an external drive) and install Snow Leopard and the incompatible applications on that partition (or the drive). Again, this may also be an easier solution than trying to backtrack.

After Mountain Lion update, i can't access Facebook and Hotmail websites

When I was with the OSX Lion, everything was fine.
After Mountain Lion update, i can't open Facebook and Hotmail websites.
I already reinstalled the Mountain Lion, but the error still happens. The only way to open these websites is with the private navigation.
Please, help me.

From your Safari menu bar (top of your screen) click Safari > Preferernces then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
If you still have problems with Facebook, go to the Facebook page then click the downward facing arrow to the right of Home then click Account Settings.
Select Security on the left then click Secure Browsing.
Select the box next to: Browse Facebook on a secure connection (https) when possiblle then click Save Changes.

Missing the Message App after Mountain Lion Update

My Macbook Pro totally crashed after the Mountain Lion update, and a wonderful tech support lady at Apple walked me though hours of restoring it. However, now that it is working fine and all programs re-installed, I noticed that the Message app is missing. I really like this app and want it back. I paid for the OS and think I should get everything I had before, plus the update. I shouldn't lose a program in the update, should I? I've read through all the other message boards and can find only general suggestions to search in the spotlight (which I did to no avail), and I have searched for a third-party download. After the trouble I've had, I really just want the program back from Apple. HELP!

If it did not get reinstalled for some reason, then you will need to reinstall. See the following. You can avoid this if you have a prior backup.
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
