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!

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

Pkg's made by PackageMaker from Xcode4.2 stopped working after Mountain Lion 10.8.1 upgrade!

We have some pkg's that used to install fine across Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion.
Those pkg's were made from PackageMaker that came with Xcode4.2.
Since last week's Mountain Lion 10.8.1 upgrade, the pkg's preflight/postflight scripts stopped working
on Mountain Lion machines, but still work with Lion and Snow Leopard.
The current workaround we use is to produce the pkg using PackageMaker that comes from Xcode4.4 auxiliary tools.
These pkg's work fine on all mentioned OS X.
I think this should be either a bug in 10.8.1 upgrade or a change of policy.
Can someone reproduce and clarify?
Thanks!

You are not alone!!
Same problem with Plantronics.
I just bought their Audio 648 Stereo USB Headset and have exactly the same issue you mention at the outset:
Essentially, while my [Plantronics Audio 648] Headset is recognized in the list of devices in System Preferences > Sound, it doesn't do anything in terms of outputting or inputting audio
So Apple, what are you going to do?...
A lot of third party accessory manufacturers must be getting quite frustrated at the numer of complaints they get from Mac users, when it seems its the Mac OS which is to blame...

"Licensing Has Stopped Working" with Mountain Lion & PS Elements

After installing Mountain Lion Photoshop Elements will not open. IT produces a dialog box that says "Licensing has stopped working - ERROR 6 " Restarting the computer is no help.
How do I reenter my license - and WHY am I having to do this?

Jeff,
That link calls for deletion of the "FlexNet Publisher" file in the HardDrive>>Library>>Preferences folder. No such file exists in that folder on my 10.8 machine.
It also calls for downloading and opening the LicenseRecovery111.zip file. I have done that and insise the LicenseRecovery Folder ran the LicenseRecover application. That app opens but appears to be non-responsive.
Any other avenues?

Ethernet has stopped working after installing "Security Update 2010-003"

I installed the update recently and have been unable to connect to the internet. The network still gives me an ip, but the internet and server button remain "orange". The wifi still works.
Has this happened with anyone else? I am curious as to how I can either uninstall the update or make the ethernet work again..
Much thanks for any recommendations you may have.

Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
I'm not having that problem after installing the security update.
If you open the Network panel of System Preferences and select the Ethernet connection item, is it set to "Configure" "Using DHCP"? Do you see reasonable values for "IP Address", "Subnet Mask", "Router", and DNS Server"?

Applescript stopped working after Mountain Lion upgrade

Hi after upgrading to Mountain Lion (ML) the applescript that I use to reply to certain emails has stoped working on incoming emails. I have the script in the "new" correct folder. The funny thing is that the script works when you "apply rules" from the messages dropdown menu.

This is the script:
using terms from application "Mail"
          on perform mail action with messages theMessages for rule theRule
--tell application "Mail"
                    repeat with eachMessage in theMessages
--set theContent to content of eachMessage
                              set emailFrom to extract address from sender of eachMessage
                              try
--set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {"(", ")"}
--set contentParts to (every text item in theContent) as list
--set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ""
--set emailOnly to item 2 of contentParts
--set recipientAddress to emailOnly
                                        set recipientAddress to emailFrom
                                        set theSubject to "Text for subject"
                                        set theSignature to signature "One"
                                        set theSendContent to " "
                                        set theSender to "[email protected]"

HP Power Advisor has stopped working after installing latest updates

I have been using HP Power Advisor successfully on my Lenovo X230 running Windows 7. After installing the latest Power Advisor updates it no longer works. I can select a voltage from the dropdown on the Input Voltage screen but nothing happens when I click on the Go button, as if it is disabled. I've tried re-installing the download package which works fine but it stops working again as soon as I install the latest updates. Any ideas how to solve this?

Well on the website for HP power Advisor, it specifically says,
"Accurately estimate power consumption of your HP server and storage products"
There could be many different things interrupting your use of the program, but I'm going to say that maybe your largest problem with using the HP software designed for HP machines is your Lenovo.
Sorry,
Good Luck!

SD reader on macbook pro retina stopped working after mountain lion upgrade

I tried to use the SD reader on my new MacBook Pro Retina tonight and I can insert the SD card and the mac does not see it. It worked prior to my upgrading to mountain lion. Any ideas?

I also have a Mac Pro Retina and have the exact same problem after upgrading. I will say that despite the SD card not showing up on my desktop or in the finder window, I am able to import to Lightroom 4 with no problems and I get an error message when i withdraw it, asking me to "EJECT IT PROPERLY". APPLE! Please help us.

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.

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.

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!
