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.

Can i use Safari in safe mode to reinstall mountain lion os?

Why not do it from the Recovery partition?
And, why are you posting this in the Snow Leopard forum?

Can I still use a regular mice and keyboard with Mountain Lion?

Will an older "Time Capsule" work with Mountain Lion?

will an older "Time Capsule" work with Mountain Lion?

It should do. Depends on how you define an 'older' TC. As long as your SW is up to date and the TC has relatively recent Firmware etc then there shouldn't be an issue.
Are you having a problem with yours or just curious before you upgrade the OS?
Regards,

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.

Any settings that can be adjusted to make everything run faster with Mountain Lion

Hello,
Does anyone know of any settings or adjustments that can be tweeked to make my machine run faster with Mountain Lion?
Thanks, Jason

yes you can do it yourself - it's actually a simple upgrade - i use a ssd in my macbook and have the RAM maxed out to 16GB.
as for what brands should you consider, here are some good ones.
Sandisk Extreme - Currently the fastest one out there.
Kingston HyperX - Second fastest - this is what I have in my 13 Inch Late 2011.
Samsung 830 series - Fast and uses less battery power - this is what's installed in the Macbook Retina.
Crucial M4 - Also a fast SSD - I have the 512GB installed in my 15 inch Late 2011.
If you decide to install one of these ssd in your Macbook - let me know if you need a step by step on how to clone your drive.
Good luck..

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.

Can I use Migration Assistant from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion?

I've done a clean install of Mountain Lion 10.8.1 - a 'test' installation on a new clean partition on my main HD. It boots fine and runs fine. But Mountain Lion's Migration Assistant does not recognise my external HDD which contains a bootable clone (CCC) of my entire SL installation (my present computer). The little progress clock icon just keeps going round and round and round...
I want to migrate my account files, settings, bookmarks etc etc from SL to Mountian Lion but I'm stumped because of ML not recognising my SL installation.
Plus, I'm considering buying a new MBP Retina in near future and don't want to be caught out with this problem with that either.
Because this is my only computer, and it holds all my business, I can't afford anything but a seamless migration without problem-down-time (which I had unbearbly with Lion and reverted to SL almost immediately as a result).
Thank you in advance for any advice offered.

To reinstall iPhoto you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the:
HD/Library/Receipts folder (10.5 and earlier)
or from the /var/db/receipts/ folder (10.6) .
or from the /private/var/db/receipts folder (10.7 or later)
Then install iPhoto from the source it came from originally, i.e. the disks that came with your Mac, an iLife disk or the App Store if your Mac came with Lion or Mt. Lion preinstalled.

Can't install any .PKG or .MPKG files with Mountain Lion.

Some weeks ago I found out, that I can't install anymore any programmes that are packed in .PKG or .MPKG files.
Whenever I double click one of theese files, or when I try the "open with" option, I get a system response from TextEdit.App . . .
I tried already some of the advices mentioned in the community forum, but nothing worked so far.
Latest thing I tried was to re-associate these two file types with the Installer - but I couldn't find it anywhere.
I've got an iMac27, late 2009, 16GB RAM, equipped with the latest version of Mountain Lion.
Hope, you can help me - there are some updates (MS Office, MyTomTom, Logitech drivers, ...) that need to be installed.
Thanks in advance,
Dirk.

I would go thus;
1. Back up, preferably using bootable and verified clone(s).
2. Boot into recovery and repair permissions/disc.
3. Apply combo updater if step 2 was unsuccessful. (The link I have posted assumes you are running 10.7.3 as per your signature).

What Floppy Drive can I use with Mountain Lion to read and write floppy which can be read by SE30 with 7.1

I want to File Exchange between an iMac with 10.8.4 and a SE30 with 7.1.
All I want to do is install some software, such as Word 5.1 and a Chess game and some Fonts.
I have an external USB Floppy Drive but my iMac can only write to it IF I format as FAT, if I format it with the SE30 it can only be read and not written onto by the iMac.
Is there a way I can actually format/read/write Macintosh extended (HFS+) with Mountain Lion?
The external USB Floppy is a generic black one I bought from Amazon last week.
Someone else said I should get a Macally USB Floppy Drive and that reads/writes HFS+ etc with 10.8 no problem.
Is this because the Macally was released along with the Bondi Blue iMac?
I have tried using Apple Exchange on my SE30 - recorded some files onto the FAT formatted Floppy, and read it using Apple Exchange, but when 'translating' the Files transferred over as generic files which were no longer Macintosh programs or Files (eg Word 5.1 application or extensions/ Font suitcases etc) and could not be read.
Is there a way round this?
Or is there any way I can mount/read/write from the generic USB Floppy DRIVE with Sheepshaver (with 7.5.3)?
Any help or advice would be most appreciated.

>surely there must be some Terminal command or workaround for 10.8 to be able to Format in HFS?
Using dd to write an existing HFS disk image to a floppy may still work (but formatting/writing HFS from the operating system does not). You may want to compare this with the technique described in the article below. Obviously, this is only of interest if one wants to try creating floppies from certain (Disk Copy 4.2-style) downloaded 1.44 MB disk images.
http://lowendmac.com/brierley/08pb/classic-mac-boot-floppy.html
>If I got hold of an old iBook or Powerbook G4 (my sister has one) could I plug the USB Floppy drive I have into one of these and copy files over this way?
At least according to the following Wikipedia article, writing HFS has not been supported since Mac OS X 10.6. This should mean that your idea with the USB floppy drive connected to one of the older computers mentioned could work. BTW, I do not think that the USB floppy drive type/make/model is of importance in this very context.
Another idea could possibly be to use an even older intermediate computer for other file transfer methods (without a floppy).
A PowerBook 520/520c/540/540c could run Mac OS 8.1, if at all necessary. It has built-in Ethernet (an external AAUI to RJ-45 transceiver is used), which would allow TCP/IP connections over a network. A LocalTalk connection to the SE/30 can be established via a plain Macintosh MiniDIN-8M to MiniDIN-8M printer cable. With the correct SCSI cable/adapter, one could also use the PowerBook as an external hard disk for the SE/30 in SCSI disk mode.
A PowerBook 5300 can run Mac OS 8.1 or higher, if necessary. It does not have built-in Ethernet, but a PC Card (PCMCIA) network card can be used. Furthermore, with an inexpensive PC Card adapter for CompactFlash and a CompactFlash memory card, the computer would have a simple removable "hard disk". The CF card (in Mac or PC format) can be read by a modern computer (a USB reader may be needed), making it ideal for file transfers. LocalTalk can be used here too, and so can SCSI disk mode (HD target mode).

I'm running Yosemite on my present computer, if I buy a new computer with Mountain Lion, can I transfer apps and info?

I'm using Yosemite now, new computer comes with Mountain Lion, can I transfer apps and info?

You can, but there is a high risk of leaving OS X in your new Mac unusable. This is because Migration Assistant will detect that your new Mac has got preinstalled apps with an older version than the ones you have in the "old" Mac, and it will try to replace them. However, the new apps versions are designed for Yosemite, so you will not be able to open any application.
Because of that, I recommend you to set up the new Mac without transferring your data, and upgrade it to Yosemite. Then, use Migration Assistant to transfer your files.

Can I use home sharing at the office?

I use Home Sharing at home with my son. Can I also use Home Sharing at the office with my co-workers?

Can I also use Home Sharing at the office with my co-workers?
So long as you're all connecting to the same wifi network, it's technically possible.
You might want to check in with your IT folks to see how many routers are running the wifi network, though. (Home Sharing can be tetchy for some folks with multiple-router set-ups.)

Can I use Power BI capabilities in iPad with Office 365

Hello,
Can I use power BI features in office 365 as native app in ipad ? if this is not possible what are the other options we have to use power BI features in ipad ?
Thanks in advance.

HI Anush,
At the recent PASS BA conference, Microsoft announced that there will be a native iOS app for Power BI by the end of Summer 2014.
At the moment this is the current availability of Power BI on Mobile and tablet.
"No matter where you are, you can access data in Power BI for Office 365 through the browser with Excel and Power View in HTML5
or through the Power
BI Windows Store app, which provides touch-optimized access to BI reports and models stored in Office 365. We will offer support
for other widely adopted platforms at a later date."
