  • HT2476 Can I still use iPHOTO 6/iMovie 6/Appleworks with Mountain Lion?

    My partners and clients require those formats and are unlikely to upgrade to anything that does not run them., which is why we have not moved to Lion.

    I don't know about iPhoto 6 - but would assume no.
    Appleworks is a PPC app and will neither install nor run. I maintain an external partition with a full bootable clone of Snow Leopard for the occasional use of Appleworks.
    As for  iMovie HD 6: not sure if you can install it (if the installer is PPC, then you can't). I am actually running iMovie HD 6.04 which was a .dmg made available for free download by Apple for unhappy iMovie 8 buyers. I use it because I prefer it over later versions (which I have). The caveat: you must install iMovie 8 first, otherwise the .dmg of 6.04 will not install. Since 6.04 is sort of an update, I don't know if the original version 6 would install or not. The only way to know is to hear from someone who has done that or try it yourself.
    FWIW, I have used the iMovie HD 6.04 in both Lion and Mountain Lion. It will occasionally quit/crash during launch, but will usually behave itself once launched again.
    So, the best way to try it would be to create a bootable clone of your system on an external drive with CarbonCopyCloner or SuperDuper (and, if that includes iMovie 6, then it's already installed), and then purchase/install Mountain Lion either on your internal or external. You can try it and if you don't like it, simply wipe the drive and clone back your system.

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the other ID.  When you delete the account it will prompt you about what to do with the iCloud data.  If you need to migrate it and merge it with the data in the new account choose Keep on My iDevice; then choose Merge to upload the data and merge it with the new account.  If your data is already in the other account and you don't need to migrate it to the other account, choose Delete from My iDevice.

  • Why can't i use my flagged pictures in sreensaver with mountain lion

    in the previous OS i was able to sellect my flagged pics in iphoto to use in my screensaver also it would put a diffrent pic on my two screens.  Now with mountain lion i can't figure out how to do either of these things.  Has anyone elce had this issue?

    Apple appears to have significantly changed the Screen Savers tab in System Preferences.  I was able to select the Flagged smart album (or any other iPhoto album for that matter) by selecting the type of slideshow (from the 'Slideshow' section).  Then selected the "Source" popup menu box, selected "iPhoto Library..." then selected the Flagged (or whatever iPhoto album/event you want).  Then select the "Choose" button and you are done.

  • Anyone having Bluetooth issues with mouse and keyboard with mountain lion?

    Installed mountain lion yesterday and since the restart my bluetooth on my computer is not working properly and it says "bluetooth not available" Any ideas or suggestions on a fix.  I have already tried re installing mountian lion with no luck.

    Did you try these steps? They worked for me and a couple other people:
    1 - Turn on automatic login: System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General > Click the lock to make changes > If Disable automatic login is checked, uncheck it > Pick your user account and password > Ok.
    2 - Shut down your computer.
    3 - Turn off your keyboard and mouse: For keyboard and wireless trackpad you hold the power button until the light goes off.
    4 - Start your computer.
    5 - Once your desktop has fully loaded turn the keyboard and mouse back on, everything should work.

    Hi, I can't get my old wacom intuos2 to work with mountain lion, any suggestions? Apart from buy a new tablet.

    I was out of town for a few days. I had no issue installing the driver on Mountain Lion (10.8.2). What specifically happens when you try to install?
    If you get this message:
    then you need to right-click on the installer package and select 'Open' when you get this message:
    If this isn't your issue you need to be more specific about what is happening.

  • HT1218 How can I make my first generation AirPort Express work with Mountain Lion? I have a 13" MacBook Pro (non-retina).

    How can I make my first generation AirPort Express work with Mountain Lion? I have a 13" MacBook Pro (non-retina).

    Hi guys, recently had the same issue. You require an older version of Airport Utility to configure the older Airport Express. It can be found here.

  • Can i still use a care call phone line with infini...

    hi i have placed my order for bt infinity i have been thinking i have a care call phone for my dad which connects to the phone line via an adapter, can i still use it with infinity?
    or will the phone socket take away the compatability?
    thanks
    mark

    If your care phone adapter is plugged into your BT socket,then if you get infinty installed I think that the only thing that the engineer will update is the master socket.
    He/she should fit a new faceplate to the socket for the infinty data line [it has 2 outlets],you will still have a normal phone outlet,and I think that your care phone adapter can be used as normal.
    But others might not agree.
    Keep an eye on this thread as pthers might post thier responces.

  • Why can't I use Omnifocus anymore after I upgraded to Mountain Lion?

    Recently, I got the developers Mountain Lion. But when I got this, I found out I couldn't use this app called Omnifocus anymore. Any suggestions?

    If you have a backup of Lion, restore that to a blank partition, erasing the one with Mountain Lion installed if needed. If you don't have a backup and Lion's recovery partition still exists(press Option at startup), reload it from there.

  • Can I stream a dvd to my apple tv with mountain lion?

    I have a 2009 MBP 13 and want to send a dvd to my apple tv. wlll this work with Mountain Lion, or Snow Leopard?

    Sorry, but there is no way to stream a physical DVD from any Mac, regardless of the OS it's running. If this DVD is not copy-protected (most commercial DVDs are), you can convert it and import it into iTunes and then stream it from your Mac.
    Regards.

  • I can't use the iCloud feature on Safari with Mountain Lion.

    I updated to Mountain Lion but my iPad 3rd gen and my iPhone 4S will not update or use the iCloud function in Safari. It says it works on my computer, but the icon is not on my IOS devices. In the IOS 6 update info it says that iCloud web page sharing between devices would come out in fall, so why do I have it on my
    computer then? If it is supposed to work just give me a sollution please, I just want it to work.
    PS. My IOS devices says they are already up to date.
    Thanks!

    Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke.  If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.
