After Mountain-Lion-Install no App Store Access
After having installed Mountain Lion I can't access the App Store anymore. It speaks of an inexistant internet connection, altough I am able to surf with Safari. Some pages like outlook.com and the iTunes store are defectively loaded (layout is not shown correctly). Also Safari has certificate problems (but I suppose this is due to missing updates). May there be a connection to an older problem I have? From time to time I have to restart the wifi connection because of "having passed the time limit".
I have already tried to fix the problem by repairing the permissions and resetting Safari and by changing DNS-Server to 8.8.4.4. and 8.8.8.8.
Thank you very much
Problem fixed: it was a certificate problem.

Why can't i access the app store after Mountain Lion install?
Why can't i access the app store after Mountain Lion install?
Hi There,
What happens when you try to access it? You've not given a lot of information for people to help you. -
Mountain Lion downloaded from App store on 11th and 12th June will not install. Downloaded TWICE it times out after 20 secs into install. Can't get any help!!! Going around in circles!!
My Machine MacBook Pro OS 10.6.8
Processor 2.66Ghz i7,
4GB memory
128GB solid state drive
Purchased 2010Thanks very much for the advice. I trawled through the other answers on the site and it appears others had the same issue. I doubled the available space and the install went like clockwork... which is what one would norma;ly expect from Apple :-)
Maybe Apple should have a ' definitely read me first' notice before a download takes place with CLEAR instructions to have more than the 6GB they indicate ofr the Mountain Lion download -
I downloaded the mountain lion from the app store and it downloaded. When i installed the mountain lion it said that the hd disk is broken and cannot be repaired, and the other disk doesnt have enough space! HELP and i cannot return to my desktop with the old sofware so i cant use my computer normaly
This error means that your hard drive is badly corrupt and cannot be repaired by Disk Utility. Since you say you don't have backups, this is very bad news. You may already have lost data irrevocably.
First order of business needs to be backing up whatever you can, but this may be difficult to do if the machine won't start up any more. See step 1 of the following post:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/21614450#21614450
Once you have backed up your data, you can address the other issues. -
Microsoft Office 2011 no longer opens because "there is a problem" after updating mountain lion when the app store said there was an update available this morning. Reinstalling did not work. What's the problem?
Has your problem been solved by the updates??
Have a similar problem. This MacBook opened all MS Office programs in Dec2012 but no longer does in Feb2013. Went to Microsoft/mac/downloads but none of the three updates would run citing a problem "version of software needed to run this update was not found on this volume".
MacBook: 7.1, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz
Microsoft Office 2011: version 14.2.3
Mountain Lion: 10.8.2 (12C60) -

Just bought Mountain Lion from the app store on my Macbook Pro. In the middle of installion it froze up my computer saying that the installation failed,
It says my Hard Drive is damaged and cant be repaired. Has anyone had this problem? Im completely screwed...Thanks Apple!!Welcome to the Apple Support Communities,
I had a similar issue and it was an easy fix for me. First you need to log out of your account completely in the Mac App Store. Quit the application. Re-open the Mac App Store. Click log-in, enter your Apple-ID and password. Now when the screen pops-up that has all of your billing/credit card information on it DO NOT select done. Instead select View my Account, then select View hidden purchases. There you should be able to find iPhoto. Hope this helps if not let me know. I'm still searching solutions for you.

when I start my laptop it loads a third of the way and shuts down automaticallyI've tried to safe boot, repairing discs and clearing RAM but nothing has worked. basically I've come to the final step of having to a erase my hard drive and reinstall mountain lion however Apple support suggest that I install from a disc however I installed mountain lion from the App Store. can anyone help me go about this?
Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard 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.
Erase the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the
left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
3. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on
the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass. Click on
the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
because it is three times faster than wireless. -
I just bought a Mac Mini (late 2012) with a 1TB HDD and I'm planning to install a second drive, an SSD (Samsung 840 evo) and create the Fusion Drive, and I have a couple of questions:
1- I've read lots of articles on how to do this but I'm not sure if I have to buy Mountain Lion from the app store (to reinstall the OS after I install the second drive) since I'm not able to see it on the "Purchased" list of apps, or if I can just reinstall OS X with OS X Utilities.
2- I read somewhere that if I make my own Fusion Drive when I reinstall OS X I will lose iLife, is this true? Or will I be able to redownload it from the store? I really don't want to lose iMovie, iPhoto and GarageBand and I'm confused about it.
Thanks in advance for any help and information you can give me!Thankyou very much lllaass, that's exactly what I wanted to be sure about!

Trouble downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store
Hi!
I am currently running snow leopard 10.6.8. I have updated all of my software, run time machine, and backblaze. I have purchased Mountain Lion through the App Store, but have tried to download it three times without success. I get a pop up window about 3/4 of the way through the download that says "download failed" , check our internet connection. I have checked it in the Systems Preferneces and I have green buttons on both the ethernet and wireless connections.
Any suggestions for how I can successfully download and install Mountain Lion?
Thanks!

I downloaded OSX Mountain Lion via the App Store but I can't download to my other mac
I downloaded Mac OSX Mountain Lion via the App Store. My understanding is that you can download it on up to 3 machines?
I have downloaded it to one iMac and one MBP but have one more to do. I've accessed the App Store with my admin logon on my last MBP to download it but can't seem to find it in my purchased history to do it.
I can go into iTunes into my account and then purchase history where it's recorded, but there's nothing here about how to download it again?
Any advice greatly appreciated.Log into the Mac App Store using the EXACT same Apple ID as before when you first purchased ML, and in your Account look under "Purchases", where you can download it again.
Hope this helps -
I purchased mountain lion in the app store but it won't download
I bought OS X Mountain Lion in the App Store on my Macbook. It asked for my computer password and itunes accont password. After I entered them a button labeled "Download" replaced the "$19.99" button. When I click on the button a small whirling symbol appears above it but dissapars after a second and nothing begins to download. I tried to hit the apple in the upper left hand corner of the screen and select software update but it doesn't appear happens. What should I do?
Were you in your Purchases section of the app store?
After purchasing it, it should show up there. -
I keep getting "hash mismatch" when trying to download Mountain Lion from the App store
I've been trying to download the new Mountain Lion from the App Store & keep getting "hash mismatch" message. I was able to download on my 1 computer, but no luck on the 2nd computer, which is up-to-date on all updates & software. Support even put a fresh copy of the App in my account & I still get that same message. Someone suggested AppCleaner, but how do you delete the OS to re-install the new. Didn't think that was possible. Any suggestions - I've tried quitting & logging out of the App Store & even re-starting (several times)
- Temporarily disable anti virus software if installed.
- Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent apps from downloading including Mountain Lion.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select Mountain Lion. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase. -
Redownloading OS X Mountain Lion from the App Store
Hi,
i need to re-download OS X Mountain Lion from the App Store, but cannot find the download. Trying to use my redeem code from the OS X Developer Programms tells me that the software is not available.
How can i redownload the DMG to install Mountain Lion again ?
Cheers,
OliverThe redemption code can only be used once. If you downloaded Mountain Lion already, then in App Store sign in with the proper Apple ID. Click on the Purchases icon. Search the list for your download. If you don't see it then it may be hidden: Mac App Store- Hiding and unhiding purchases.
If you are trying to download beta software, then:

I'm now running OSX v. 10.6.8. I purchased OSX Mountain Lion from the app store & after about 40 minutes of "downloading" (started 40 or so minutes ago) my iMac restarted & I signed in. But OSX 10.6.8 is still there & the image of OSX Mountain Lion is in my dock with the caption "OSX Mountain Lion -- Paused" !!! ...Now ANOTHER 20 minutes have passed & no change nor other prompts nor info have come up!! WHAT'S GOING ON??? PLEASE HELP!!! ~~~THANK YOU!!!
THANKS SO VERY MUCH, mende1, for so quickly responding to my plea for HELP!!
I had never turned my iMac off so I still don't understand why the download paused, & when I looked in my Applications folder there was no Mountain Lion, but your words, "However, you can pause and resume the download as many times as you want" encouraged me to look deeper & try harder!! I clicked & double-clicked (& multi-clicked!) the Mtn Lion icon in my dock to no avail but finally, I clicked & HELD the click for about 7 seconds . . . . . . . & then a little pop-up came & asked me if I want to "Resume the download" or stop it!! So I slid the cursor over to "Resume..." & it's downloading again!! ~~I HOPE!! I guess 4.4 GB of OS update will take more than a little time to get in there!
~~~Again, THANK YOU so MUCH & God less you with a WONDERFUL time with your studies & future dreams!!!
