Distiller Watched Folders not working Acrobat 9.5.2, Mountain Lion.
I have just installed Acrobat 9.5.2 on a new Mac running Mountain Lion 10.8.2. Watched Folders don't work. When a .ps file is placed in the IN folder, it get processed by Distiller, but no PDF file is produced. The Distiller log window claims the PDF has been produced and placed in the Out folder, but it's not there. The .ps file is moved or deleted, depending on the setting.
PS files can be dropped onto Distiller in the normal way and PDF files are produced correctly, so it's not a problem with permissions. The problem persists in a new user account, so it's not a User pref issue.
Another Mac with the same setup works fine, so it's not a compatibility bug. I have seen only one other forum page with a similar issue, relating to Distiller 6, but it's not clear what the solution was.
Thanks for the thought. No, it's not permissions. As I say, Distiller can distill a file that is drag 'n' dropped on it from that location and it will save a PDF file to that folder.
The problem occurs even when the folders are within the user domain, where permissions should not be an issue. It also happens on folders that have full rwxrwxrwx attributes.
Watched folders work fine on another computer with the same setup, so it isn't any annoying sandboxing that is stopping everyone from doing anything -- as you say!

I have recently upgraded to PSE 9 and like it a lot. I managed to import my catalogues and things look fine. However, the watch folder feature that worked so well in PSE 8 is not working at all in 9. I have it set to the correct folders, but none of them are watching. What can I do?
MelanieI would like to bump this because I too cannot get Wacth folders to watch.
I am using a network share, and unless I am doing something wrong, it doesnt work.
I have a RAW image I open in Camera Raw. I modify it, then convert it to a jpg and have it saved into the same place the RAW file is located. I would expect the orginizer to see the added file and auto add it to the orginizer because this is what the feature claims to do, but nothing happens. -
Why Mail does not work properly after updated to Mountain Lion?
I updated to ML two days ago and my Mail is not working. I can read but cannot reply because there is no cursor. Restarted a few times, no change. Anybody has the same problem??
RudhI forgot to mention (and add a new level of strangeness) that Mail is retreiving all of my messages from my personal (AT&T) account without issue.
And I just discovered an even bigger problem: all of my emails from my Sent and other folders from my work account are completely gone!
I may have no choice but to revert to my Lion system as of yesteday, before I installed ML. -
Finally I decided to move forward and installed Mountain Lion 10.8.4 (with all the updates). Now I am facing a dilemma, my external iSight Camera is working fine regarding the video fee but the Mic is useless. I am using a Mac Pro 2009 and a Apple Cinema Display 30". I checked all the trends about iSight External devices but no one has a really specific solution for my problem. Firewire is not longer supported with Mountain Lion? By the way my iSight was working perfectly before. So I am wondering if something wrong happened with the OS and the support for this kind of device? I reset the PRAM, the SMC, even I reinstalled the MAC OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4) from scratch. So I am wondering if the problem is that ML is not longer supporting this device or what is the issue here.
Hope someone can help me with it!
Thanks

Not true. External iSight works fine with my '09 Mac Pro and 10.8.4.

So it must have.

You have tried several good things, but there may be other suggestions from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 that you have not yet considered. Be sure to check more than one Apple app in more than one user account to help you pinpoint the cause of your trouble. Then you will know what to fix.
In addition to the Apple troubleshooting, check your > System Preferences... > Sound > Input to verify that your iSight's mic is selected, not muted, and that its volume setting is properly adjusted. You may need to check this again after restarting Mac or changing apps that use the mic.
Also, be certain that the apps you are testing are configured to use iSight's mic. Different apps select the mic in different ways. For example, QuickTime X allow selection among various microphone alternatives via one of its preferences as shown in the image below:
(I was using my Display microphone and did not have my external iSight connected when I made this image. Therefore, there is no iSight mic shown in my list of mic choices above. If your iSight's mic is properly connected, turned on, and recognized by your Mac, iSight will show in your QTX microphone preference choice list.)
If you are trying to use your iSight with a Flash based web site, also check your Mac's > System Preferences... > Flash Player > Camera and Mic settings to verify that your Flash system preferences are not blocking your mic.
Some other apps may offer mic and or camera selection via their application menus. If you have trouble finding out how to select the iSight internal mic in other apps, check each apps' Help or post back the name of the app whose selector you cannot locate here so we can try to help.

I have recently download new OS Mountain lion on my macbook (white late 2010 model). I had snow leopard before.
On iphoto, when i was viewing my photos in a single-photo view (double clicking on a photo), i was unable to go to the next photo/previous photo using my trackpad. Only way i could do this was by pressing arrow buttons on my key board.
If i remember correctly, i was able to do this by using 3 fingers (sliding left to right or sliding right to left) on snow leopard.
I can navigate back and foward on my internet browser using two fingers. And yes, i have tried using my two fingers on iphoto but nothing happens.
I have checked my trackpad setting and everything seems to be right.
Any ideas how i could fix this?
Thank You

This works here - but I'm on iPhoto 11. IIRC it worked on 09 too though.
It's not working for me. -
Imessage not working with Apple ID after Mountain Lion (neither on iPhone anymore)
Hi,
Ive been searching on the net for 2 days in a row hours and hours and decided to place the question here.
Since updating to Mountain Lion iMessage doesn't recognize my Apple ID anymore, it was working good on the beta.
When i try to login it says Apple ID and/or Password incorrect. It works fine on the store and iCloud.
I've tried changing the DNS to 8.8.8.8, did the keychain tricks with deleting the acounts and resetting, tried booting in Safe mode, tried killing the agent in activity monitor and tried deleting the all the iMessage/Agent/iChat files in the preferences directory. I also re installed the Mountain lion update, no go.
I tried everything on every topic i could find.
Also iMessage isnt working on my iPhone either anymore, it does send to my phone number but not to my Apple ID email anymore, when i try to login with apple id it says it cannot connect as well.
Since it isnt working on my iphone and my macbook, i reckon it has something to do with my Apple ID, but i find it weird that it just happened after the update. Ive been using this ID for 3.5 years withouth problems, it's also verifeid.
Anyone help?
Thanks in advance

Dictation is not working on my mac with mountain lion

Is your internal microphone working?
Are you hitting the "fn" key once after finishing dictation?
When you are finished dictating and the dictation feature closes down do you hear a single beep or two?

Preview not working on some images for mountain lion
hi.

the images on my imac are extremely important to me as im in the design industry and need them for many things.
any help or insight would be much appreciated.
thanks in advancei recently updated to mountain lion 10.8.3
Try repairing permissions.
Open Diisk Utillity located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Repair Disk Permissions
Then restart your Mac, launch Preview and see if you can open those images.

Watch Folder not working in PSE 8
My understanding is that My Pictures folder is automatically under Watch Folder list. However, whenever I create a subfolder within My Pictures in the Explorer and put picures in it, my media browser in PSE 8 does not show me those pictures in that folder. Why? It seems I have to manually add every subfolder within My Pictures to Watch list. Is that true or what am I doing wrong?
Thanks!Hello,
Does anyone have any suggestions to my question? I did not get any responses.
Everytime I add pictures to any sub folder in the My Pictures, I do not see that in photoshop (PSE 8). I have to import each one o f them manually. Why is my Watch Folder not working?
Thanks -
