Mac OS X 10.5.8 is Leopard. From the bottom of step 2:
If you’re running OS X Leopard and would like to upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion, first you’ll need to upgrade to OS X Snow Leopard. You can purchase OS X Snow Leopard here.

Could anyone help me getting out of the safe mode?
Hello I am Vanessa and I do not know why the safe mode is turned on when I tried to screen capture a photo... I do not know if the following incident was related to the issue... I used my phone when my hands were a little bit wet this afternoon and nothing had happened at first. Then, the lower volume button was acting a bit strange. I do not know if this is related to the safe mode issue. Please help or at least tell me ways to get out of the mode first... Thank you very much. Sorry for my poor Enhlish as it is not my mother tongue.
It seems that the volume down button is short(same to be pressed) by the water in the "accident". Thus, the phone will go to safe mode when you turn on and you found that the volume down action seems to be strange. You just need to wait the water disappear(it may take very long time, maybe several days or some weeks later) or using the hair dryer to blow on the volume down button to get rid of the water. However, you need to take extra care to do so since the hot air may damage the other parts(screen, the shielding of the case, etc.) on your phone easily.

Do i need to make an back-up of my files before i get mountain lion?
do i need to make an back-up of my files before i get mountain lion?
Even though the Mac OS X updaters are very smooth and rarely run into problems, it is always wise to make a clean, and bootable backup before performing a major update. When things go wrong they go wrong in the worst possible way

I have just tried to connect my Mac book pro to an LG Plasma TV via an iWires Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable. All I get on my TV is the Mac wallpaper and nothing else. I am missing something really silly, could anyone help please.
Hi there. I also bought an iWires mini Display port to HDMI cable and have an LG LED/LCD TV. I plugged it in to my MB Pro and followed the very small writing that came in the package and got both audio and video going. You need to change the audio settings from within System Preferences on your Mac to select your TV as the audio output.
My concern is the data latency - do you experience a delay between moving your mouse on the MBPro and the TV displaying the movement? It is only a fraction of a second, but certainly enough to be annoying, especially in a cable as expensive as the iWire. -

all my pictures in iPhoto got deleted and i don't know how to get them back so could anyone help me with that ??
We do need more information to help. Are the images gone from your iPhoto library, or is the iPhoto Library missing? How and when did this happen?
If images are missing from the library: Did you check for hidden photos? Did you check the iPhoto Trash?
If the pictures are still in the iPhoto Trash, open the Trash, select the images and and press the liitle arrow in the lower right corner - select "Put back".
If the pictures are still in an "iPhoto" folder in the system Trash (with sub folders named by date), import these folders to your iPhoto library.
Have you checked, if you have opened the correct iPhoto Library? Launch iPhoto with the options key held down, to select another Library.
If the entire Library is missing, have you searched for ".photolibrary" with spotlight?
Do have a backup?
If none of these easy measures helps, report back with more details - your iPhoto version, and anything else that might be helpful to find out, what the problem is. Don't do anything that changes the contents of your hard drive for now.

How could i get Mountain lion back if it came with the macbook i bought?
Hey everyone!
i bought a Macbook pro 15 mid 2012, it came with Mountain lion, could i get it back having OS X Yosemite now?
Also, and more important, how?
i heard that it's possible from Internet recovery (Restating pulsing Cmd+Option+r, i guess??), but then it would download the OS from apple (Which probably is Yosemite, i don't think their servers still have mountain lion, do they?)
it's not on the Appstore anymore (Not even Mavericks), and i really don't want to get it from a Torrent.
Thanks!Tayel wrote:
Are you sure i will get Mountain lion after recovering from the internet?
because that sounds amazing! but i am afraid i erase the whole HD and then i get Yosemite again haha
After you restart in Internet Recovery and you get to the OS X Utilities Menu, BEFORE you erase your drive look at the OS X icon to the left of the option to Reinstall OS X. THAT will tell you what your machine came preinstalled with and if it's a Mountain Lion, you're good to go. -

Can't get Mountain Lion to install
Hi
I bought an iPhone 5 a month ago, then found out I needed to upgrade my OS on my 4 year Macbook Pro. I received Snow leopard yesterday and managed to install it without issue. I then found out SL doesn't support iTunes &, which is apparently what you need to sync iPhone 5. All rather annoying. So I then bought and downloaded Mountain Lion and have been trying to install it for the last 24 hours.
Once I run the installer it eventually says (after restarting) that it cannot install because it can't create a recovery folder. There is plenty of room on the main HD.
I've looked at various posts but none explain (clearly enough for a non-techy like me) what to do.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks.

Syncing with iTunes on a Mac or PC requires:

PC: Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later

How to get Mountain Lion Spotlight to find text in CSV files?
Does anyone know how to get Mountain Lion Spotlight to find text in CSV Files? Spotlight worked flawlessly with Snow Leopard on my last MAC but with Mountain Lion it doesn't recognize CSV Files. I have researched this extensively and haven't found any solution but I really believe there must be many others who have the same problem. I even contacted Apple's Genius Bar which was of no help whatsoever, they couldn't even tell me why Spotlight wasn't finding text in CSV Files, i.e., function dropped by Apple, bug, etc.
Thru research I found that if the CSV Files are converted to 'Plain Text Files' Spotlight will find text inside of the files but I typically save my spreadsheets as CSV Files and don't want to have to convert them to Plain Text Files just so Spotlight will search them.
I appreciate any help you can give.
JoelI should have mentioned earlier that I do NOT have any exclusions set under the Spotlight Privacy tab, however, I did move one of the folders that contains CSV Files in then back out of the Privacy tab to try and get Spotlight to index the folder, but to no avail.
I have a second Admin account and tried to find text in CSV Files while in that account, again to no avail. I also tried upgrading to Mountain Lion 10.8.4 to see if it might fix the problem, but no soap.
Below is a screenshot of the Systems Preferences/Library/Spotlight/RichText.mdimporter/ file and I don't even see where Spotlight is setup to find CSV Files on my computer, very confusing but thanks again for your input. -
Since installing Mountain Lion i have a problem with Mail. I delete a number of messages from the same person but keep the newest message in my Inbox. I actually delete them from the Trash. The next time i open Mail the deleted messages are back again. Can anybody please help as this is getting annoying. Thanks in Anticipation.
Problems such as yours are sometimes caused by files that should belong to you but are locked or have wrong permissions. This procedure will check for such files. It makes no changes and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
First, empty the Trash.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
find ~ $TMPDIR.. \( -flags +sappnd,schg,uappnd,uchg -o ! -user $UID -o ! -perm -600 -o -acl \) 2> /dev/null | wc -l
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
The output of this command, on a line directly below what you entered, will be a number such as "41." Please post it in a reply. -
