Calendars (for Mountain Lion) won't connect to Google (gmail calendars). What's up?
I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion. Now I get fairly intermittent warnings from the new Calendars program that it can't conntect to Google (gmail) for my calendars. What's up? And, why isn't their a separate "Calendars" community?

Notes.app in Mountain Lion leaves multiple messages on Google Gmail account!?
Hello, I've set up the Notes app in Mountain Lion (10.8.2) to sync with Google Gmail Notes and I've come across something rather peculiar. I typed a Note into the Note app, it created a message in the Gmail account with the label "Notes" like I read it was supposed to do. (I'm still baffled why they designed the Notes sync this way but that is besides the point.) Then I proceed to update the note in the app and it updated the note in Gmail. I though, "sweet, it's working," so I began typing away. After imputing a bunch of notes into the Notes app, I went over to Gmail and clicked on "All Mail" and to my surprise there were HUNDREDS of partial messages left behind by the Notes app! Apparently everytime a note is updated and the Notes app syncs with Gmail (which is every few seconds), it creates a new message.
I know that a work-around solution is to just use iCloud, but I haven't found an easy way to sync up iCloud Notes with an Android. I know, I know, I should just get an iPhone and call it a day, but for those that use Gmail Notes, has anyone found a solution? It's so annoying!!
(I wonder if Apple did this on purpose so users will switch to the much easier iCloud and iPhone. Hmmmm.)Good day all,
I had the similar issue. I did the following to recover my notes before the upgrade:
You need to locate the StickiesDatabase under your Library folder.
Once you have a copy of your StickiesDatabase under
/Users/<insert_your_home_directory>/Library/StickiesDatabase
Export stickies created by Stickies.app
Install National Velocity (NV) - http://notational.net/ and start the application
In Finder open your Library folder and locate StickiesDatabase
Drag StickiesDatabase into the list of notes in NV main window
After you are able to see your notes in NV, it is up to you how to transfer them to Apple Notes. You could export as HTML/RTF etc or copy paste manually... I have decided to use NV from now on.
The instructions above is from the following page:

After adding password to router, Mountain Lion won't connect
I added a 128-bit WEP* password to my FiOS router today. As soon as I did so, my iPhone and iPad both prompted me for the password. Mountian Lion wouldn't. It claims to be connected to the router, and acknowledges that it's password protected with a lock icon in the menu bar WiFi menu. But it never prompted me for the password and as a result it can't connect to anything. What I've tried:
* Turning WiFi off and on.
* Rebooting
* Ensuring there is no password saved in Keychain
* Deleting the "remembered" WiFi spot in System Preferences->Network->WiFi->Advanced
* Testing the Mac on a different WiFi network (it works fine).
* "Join Other Network" where I entered the network by name and its password. The Mac said it could not find that network.
So basically I'm stuck. If the Mac doesn't prompt for the password, I can't force it to take it.
Thanks for any help,
-K
* Oh, and before you ask why I used WEP and not WPA2, the latter did not appear as a choice in the FiOS router setup. It was WEP or nothing. Ask Verizon why they prefer lesser security. ;-)You might try looking here.

Mountain Lion won't connect to WPA-Enterprise
Configuration: Macbook Pro (8,2) running OS X 10.8.3.
My office's "IT Guy" changed our Wifi network recently, with the surprise side effect that the Mac users are now offline, including me. The odd thing is that my iPhone connects very nicely, as does my Windows (Bootcamp). When I'm booted into Windows and connected, here is the information I can glean from the network manager:
Security Type: WPA-Enterprise
Encryption Type: TKIP
NW Authentication Method: PEIP
He suggested I buy a little USB stick that would connect me, but that is over my "lame-ness" limit. The fact that the iPhone can connect but the Macbook can't is a little worrisome. Do I have any hope, assuming that firing the IT Guy and buying the USB stick are both off limits?I had a similar situation happen to me today. Connecting to an Enterprise WPA2 network, and it authenticated correctly via PEAP (MSCHAPv2) but still would not show a good Connected status.
What seemed to work was to go into Network preferences, click the Advanced button, Select TCP/IP tab, and click Renew DHCP Lease.
Not sure why the MacBook did not connect, while the iPhone did, but this seemed to give the connection a good Connected status and the exclamation point on the WiFi network went away.
And it's been 15 minute and the user has not come back to bug me again! -
I have disabled extensions, cleared the cache, and run spyware. I also have the same problem with other browsers, but Firefox is the only one I use. I am running Windows 7 home edition. I am using my Mac laptop to ask this question because my Windows Firefox browser will not let me connect to the help site.
chiduke i think because this problem exists in every browser, its not an issue with Firefox browser, i think your windows machine is under attack by some malicious software or your spyware is blocking the access to internet.
Did you say you are able to access for some time after you reinstall Firefox, i don't actually know why it works think its working until the malicious software or your spyware detects Firefox's presence and blocks the internet.
Try to start your machine in Safe mode, i mean windows. (Don't know how as i don't use windows but i know there is a safe mode when i Googled it say you can access internet only in safemode with networking option enabled so make sure you open in that), try to access the web & test for few hours if it works then its a problem with windows. May be you can ask windows support for help. -
Need to Install Safari 6.0.2 on a white Intel core duo iMac. Had to throw out 6.0.3 because of conflict with required software. Downloaded wrong version that was for Mountain lion (I am running 10.7.5). It installs but won't open, says it is for Mountian Lion.
Of course I can't throw it away since I get a message it's part of the sytem.

updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?
It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

I installed 6.0.2 on OS10.7.5 and now Safari won't open. 6.0.2 is just for Mountain Lion. How do I revert to 6.0.1?
I do have a cloned back-up, so I tried to just copy Safari 6.0.1 back onto my main drive—wouldn't work. Got a message that the System needs Safari and I can't touch it.
I'm trying to find a simpler way to revert than clone backwards, which takes a lot of time. And actually I never use Safari. I'm a Chrome user.
You are correct that I downloaded 6.0.2, rather than using software update. However, with many other pieces of software, if you try to install over the wrong system, you get a message telling you that the installation can't be done. Apple could have saved a lot of trouble by using this message.
I have three machines of different vintage, so one is on 10.6.8, one on 10.7.5 and one on 10.8.2. I am usually pretty careful about software updates and which system is needed. Unfortunately, in this case I used CNET download, and the description of 6.0.2 said it was for Lion and Mountain Lion. -
I loaded Mountain Lion and now my Canon Canoscan LIDE100 Scanner won't work. I reloaded the application, checked the Cannon website for the correct driver & loaded the Canon driver for Mountain Lion. Aplication starts to load then hangs up on 80% complete. Any suggestions?
Might have a hardware issue that was caused by the minor liquid spill.
Take it to Apple to have them look at it. I think they do a free diagnostics. That way you can find out what's wrong with your MB.
Good luck....Hope you get it sorted out. -
Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I cannot connect to my wireless router
Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I cannot connect to my wireless router. I have 2 wireless networks in my home. One is the primary whuch all of my devices connect to. The other is for backup only. I cannot connect to the primary with my iMac but have no trouble with any of the other devices which include iphones and ipads.phones and iPads. I can however connect to the backup without a problem. I have tried upgrading the firmware of the router as well as changing the security from WEP to WPA-2, no luck. Can anyone help?
Try this, it's for information.
In Finder, open the Go menu, press and hold the option key, 'Library' will appear on the menu, click and scroll to Application Support, open the folder and scroll to 'AddressBook-v22.abcddb'. Click on the file and press Command-I. Towards the bottom you'll see Permissions, tell me what they are please. -
Birthdays a day early in Calendar on Mountain Lion
On my Macbook Pro running Mac OS X 10.8.2 (Mountain Lion) all the birthdays from the "Birthdays" calendar are showing a day early in Calendar. E.g. When I browse to contact Joe Bloggs in Contacts it shows his birthday as 12/03/1987. When I go into Calendar, there is a full day event for Joe Bloggs' birthday on 11/03/1987.
In Calendar I have selected the correct timezone (New Zealand Time) and have also enabled "Turn on time zone support" in the preferences. On my iPhone, I have the same settings and the birthdays display on the correct date.
Is there anything I can do to get the birthdays to display on the correct date in Calendar on my Macbook Pro?
Just clarifying, the date format used here is dd/mm/yyyy.I tried the "year" view, but it makes not difference. A Spotlight search does not present the info in a calendar format, only in an events and reminders format. It also only seems to be finding the "today" view, but it is impossible to be sure since it only shows a time for the event but no date. There has to be a way to find the last time or all the times I made a Dr.'s appointment without going through an entire year or more day by day.

Mountain Lion won't install on 10.7.4. Suggestion from Apple is to completely erase the harddisk and install Leopard > Snow Leopard > Mountain Lion.
Is there no other way to install Mountain Lion?I tried and failed for several hours to install Mountain Lion, and was repeatedly getting the "Recovery System" cannot be created error. I tried all the tricks: resizing the drive partition, booting from an external boot drive, all to no avail. After reading other users struggling with the same issue, I had determined it to be a boot camp drive error. However, I didn't want to have to erase and begin anew when I came upon a possible solution. I had long ago renamed my boot camp drive with a "." (".windows" for me) in order to avoid having the partition show up on my desktop. So, I boot into windows and renamed the c: drive without the "." ("windows"), and reboot into os x. The install then went off without a hitch. I hope this will be helpful for others struggling with this issue that may have renamed their boot camp drives in a similar manner.

How do I download Safari for Mountain Lion?
How do I download Safari for Mountain Lion? It's not in the App Store, it is nowhere on the Apple website . . . OK, so I guess it is supposed to be part of Mountain Lion, but I am running Mountain Lion and whatever version of Safari I ended up with would not even run at all . . . so I trashed it (or at least what part of it I was allowed to trash) and though reinstalling it would be a good idea . . . but I can't find one to reinstall. The latest version I can find is for Leopard, and of course that won't run.
Not to mention that since getting Mt Lion, iPhoto won't run . . . it produces an error message saying I need to check with the developer to make sure it runs with this version of OS X! So I wonder who the developer of iPhoto is, who produces software that is incompatible with Mt Lion???
And even in submitting this there is no option to tag it for any OS later than 10.7.4!!Since Safari is crashing, post a crash report... reinstalling the OS X rarely helps a browser crash issue.
If Safari has just crashed, press the Report button on the CrashReporter dialog box to view the crash information.
Copy/paste the entire contents of the Crash Reporter window into your reply. If the crash report dialog does not appear or the crash is hard to reproduce, crash logs can be retrieved from the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter> folder.
Please include the "binary images" section... -
I have recently upgrades to Mountain Lion and I can not get the calendar utility to come alive. Icon appears in the tast bar but the application does not launch or appear to be any where else. Any suggestion?
Did you look in the Applications folder for Calendar? If it is there, remove the item that is in the Dock and replace it by dragging the Calendar application to the Dock.
If it is not there, did you have iCal located somewhere other than the Applications folder when you upgraded?
