Status bar lights not aligned on Mountain Lion

Just asking, the little status indicator lights underneath each of the apps on my Mac don't seem to be aligned very well. The very worst is probably FaceTime. It's really unaligned. I got this legally, no torrent whatsoever, I've even got the receipt but I was just curious.

I think yours is showing a problem. They should be perfectly centered. It's not an optical illusion.
The Face Time image is also perfectly centered under the camera, if you measure from back of camera to end of lens. EDIT: I see what you mean about illusion, yes.

  • Photo booth does not work in mountain lion?

    When I try to run the photo booth app. It will not load in mountain lion, the camera light comes on and sometimes it opens with a red screen. Any one else have this issue?

    This is what I get in the console...

  • How can I find Lion to download it to my Mac Boook/  It is the white plastic model and is now running Snow Leopard.  It has 4 GB of Ram but this computer is not compatible with MOuntain Lion.  I cannot find Lion anywhere.

    How can I find Lion to download it to my Mac Book?  It has Snow Leopard and 4GB RAM but it the white plastic model and is not compatible with Mountain Lion.  I have been told by the Genius Bar that it will handle Lion.

    That underpowered model is better left on 10.6.8 for performance reasons, also the fact that it's dated and 10.7 will likely require you to buy alll new software to replace the PPC based software your currently using.
    If you insist, then call Apple via phone and they will sell you 10.7 Lion and provide a link to download it.
    My 2¢ is to save up for a new machine, as that one is about to kick the bucket, they only last about 4.5 years or so depending upon use/enviroment.
    If your having problems with 10.6.8, perhaps some of the links here can assist, 10.6 is faster than 10.7 in fresh install tests.

  • Express 802.11n model A1264 not compatible with Mountain Lion?

    I have an airport Express 802.11n model A1264.  I have been using  it with Mountain Lion for a couple of months.  Some problems but it worked.  Last nite it stopped. - flashing orange light.  I am using Airport Utility version 6.1.  The helpful? lady at apple support said that model of Airport Express (Gen 1 ) was not compatable with Mountain Lion and I need to get a Generation 2 Airport Express.  Is there any other solution? 

    Hardware failure is a possibility but your Express is most certainly compatible with your version of Mac OS X.

    ...  I had pushed in the reset button on the AU Express -
    To properly reset it to factory defaults requires that you depress its reset button continuously for about five seconds - long enough for the LED to flash rapidly, then release it.
    After this the Express will create an open wireless network called "Apple Network nnnnnn" where nnnnnn = a set of characters unique to your Express.
    Connect to that network by selecting it in the menu.
    Launch AirPort Utility. It should find the Express.
    If you are still having trouble unplug the Express and plug in to an electrical outlet near your iMac. Not only does this make it easier to perform another "hard reset" should you need to, it minimizes the potential for wireless interference to prevent communication. There is no need to have it connected to your modem as you configure it.
    Only after doing all this should you begin to suspect the Express has simply failed. In that case bring it back to Apple for a final determination.
    Don't let them tell you it is not compatible with Mountain Lion because I use the exact same one all the time. Even its preceding model is compatible.

  • Why is my iMac (G5) not compatible with mountain lion?

    Why is my iMac (G5) not compatible with mountain lion? I have 4 GB ram (667) and around 90GB hard drive space.

    iMac G5 can only be upgraded to 10.5.8.
    If you have continuing use, you are among the lucky ones.  I purchased many of these used from a company that shut down its American office.  Many of these eventually suffered from the "bad capacitor" problem and required a motherboard replacement from Apple.  I was lucky in that my local Genius bar approved these for no charge, even though Apple's extended warranty had expired.
    My last one was my desktop Mac.  It's power supply failed in 2010 and I paid for a replacement.  In Summer 2011 when its HD failed, I decided it was time to move on and purchaed a Mac Mini, which I continue to run on Lion.

  • HT1544 i have downloaded mac os 10.5 leopard update version successfully . but try to instal it is taking much time and the status bar is not going

    Hi < i have updated my mac 10.5 with 10.5.8 sucessfully , but while instaling it is taking much time and status bar is not showing any progress

    If I remember correctly one of the updates could hang after doing the update. Fixed by a restart but installing a combo update over the top of others rarely does any harm and it may be the best thing to do.

    Hello royalaqua,
    I do think you should ask yourself if upgrading to Lion is the right course to take.
    Snow Leopard is an excellent OS and Lion has literally been frozen out after barely a year.   Remember too that some of your apps may not work with Lion (those that have Rosetta, for example) so that could mean more new purchases.   Plus you may need to uprate your RAM too.

  • How to download but not install OSX Mountain Lion on Mavericks

    Hi all
    I would like to download but not install OSX Mountain Lion on my MBP which is currently running OSX Mavericks.
    This however seems impossible. I think OSX Mavericks were already installed on my MBP and therefore it seems "impossible" to download it.
    Now, why would I to do this? The answer is quite reasonable, due to certain demands related to an application portfolio I need Mountain Lion, because the portfolio is not upgraded to run on Mavericks. And, it is more reasonable to downgrade a version of OSX, rather waiting for the portfolio upgrade which can take years.
    Yes, I need to downgrade my secondary MBP which also came with preinstalled Mavericks. This can be done, if I only could download but not install Moutain Lion.
    It should be easy enough; download Mountain Lion, make an installer and make a bootable thumb usb stick. Then erase Mavericks and install Mountain Lion.
    I have previously bought Mountain Lion so it is accessible to me in the App Store, but whenever I try to hit the Download button, I get a message saying this can't be done, since I am running Mavericks.
    This bugs me, it should be obvious users needs the flexibility to swap whatever OSX version they need. It is still software.
    So, how can I download but not install Mountain Lion on my newer MBP that came with preinstalled Mavericks?
    I would like to see answers like:
    "In order to get this to work, you first have to disable the locking mechanism in [...] " instead of "No, this is impossible to do"
    Regards

    Thanks for your reply Eric
    Can't help wondering thought, people are ok with this?
    Basically Apple are saying: "Do not attempt to install an older version of OSX which came preinstalled. If so, expect multiple failures." Really?! Has it always been so? For me it's not like I'm going to install Snow Leopard on my Late 2013 Retina MBP, but I would expect some form of backward compatibility between the previous version and it successor. Apparently this is not possible, and how is this even acceptable? 
    Personally, I am not going to downgrade, as if I had a choice, but I would and I expected however, the possibility to at least download the previous OSX version. What do you do if you have bought several applications, not necessarily online from App Store and buy yourself a new Mac with preinstalled Mavericks and after installing your "old" applications they fail to work properly? What do you do since downgrading apparently is not an option. So... again, what do you do? 
    If you don't have friends with an older Mac, you could be facing serious problems. And I'm not talking about gaming, but serious business. 
    I find this quite disturbing actually, and please tell me it's not so. There gotta be a way to do this?
    I simply want to download the OS but I expect some registry values (like windows' registry) keeps preventing this.
    It should be possible to simply download and not download and install in one operation, shouldn't it?
    Regards

  • Remote desktop not working on mountain lion

    My ARD does not work on Mountain Lion. The software opens but all I get is the menu at the top, and my only working option is to quit. I spoke to Apple support and they suggest (as they usually do) to reinstall the whole operating system, but I can't accept this as a valid answer as everything else works. There must be a way to fix this without having to reinstall a machine that came originally with Mountain Lion!

    I was able to fix my issue by just uninstalling ARD (I used AppZapper) - and just reinstalling it - no "Archive & Install" required - best of luck with your situation!

  • Logic Express not working on mountain lion!

    i am having problems with logic express 9.0.0 which is not running on mountain lion 10.8.2.
    i have made an attept to try and get newer updates but before it gets anywhere this pops up
         " An eligible Logic Express Version was not found in
         the Applications Folder. This Update requires Logic

              you have "logic express" 9.0.0 "
    please help!!

    Hi
    First, you are going to need v9.1.7 or later with Mountain Lion (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5421)
    Second
    To get the updaters to work several things MUST be correct:
    The Logic Application must be named "Logic Pro" or "Logic Express" (depending on which type you are working with) with NO Additional spaces or numbers in the name.
    The application must be at the root level of the Applications folder (and NOT anywhere else).

  • CS4 "Save as Adobe PDF" not working in Mountain Lion

    CS4 Save as Adobe PDF not working in Mountain Lion
    Just bought a new Mac with mountain lion, installed CS4 design premium twice trying to fix this. When you go to "print" then "Save as Adobe PDF" the process fails with a pop-up saying "An error occurred while saving the PDF file". I can still do the standard "Save as PDF" - but that usually results in a file size 10x larger than Save as Adobe PDF so it won't work for me; I need the small file sizes of Save as Adobe PDF.
    When I go to Help > Repair Acrobat Installation it seems to be recognizing a repair needed with Adobe PDF Printer (see screenshot below); but when I go through the repair nothing changes it still won't work.
    Any help is much appreciated!

    "Save As Adobe PDF" works fine in Snow Leopard.
    Thanks for the link, but this is no help - I already have "Save As Adobe PDF" on the menu - the problem is when I click that it errors out...
    I just think its sad that Adobe charges people $2000 and provides zero support for future updates; when I buy an iMac for half that amount of money or an iPhone I get operating system support and bug fix downloads to deal with the latest internet advances for years to come - but Adobe apparently takes your money and says sayonara! Is it really that hard to provide updates on $2000 worth of software for say 24 months??
