  • Does anyone know how to update OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.1. to 10.8.2. on a late 2012 Mac mini. All I get are 'not compatible' messages even using supplementary updates etc?

    Does anyone know how to update OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.1. to 10.8.2. on a late 2012 Mac mini. All I get are 'not compatible' messages even using supplementary updates etc?

    It appears that many of the problems with the HDMI are the "monitors" that are being used. Samsung and Vizeo both DO NOT support a computer input on HDMI only VGA. There probably are others, manuals must be read to confirm compatability.
    I strongly believe that the reason the 10.8.2 update was pulled is due to the fact (it happened to me) that the new Disk Utility creates a Fusion drive if aftermarket SSDs are added to the system. I think Apple wants this propriatary Fusion Drive to be something you buy from them not a "homebrew" for lots less money.

  • Trouble receiving FaceTime calls on my Mac Mini using OSX Mountain Lion

    I have a Mac Mini using OSX Mountain Lion, an iPad 2, and an iPhone 4.  I tried to receive  a FaceTime call on my Mac but it was telling the caller that it was busy.  I was however able to call her iPhone from FaceTime on my Mac and we connected that way.  After our video conversation I tried testing this by calling my Mac from my iPhone.  I also received the message that it was busy.  I should also add that when I first received the call I had my iPad FaceTime turned on.  The iPad was ringing but not the Mac.  So I turned off FaceTime on my iPad and had her call me back again using my email address.  As noted it said it was busy.  Please help!

    Yes, it is. But not all 3rd party plugs are compatible yet and fail AU validation.

  • Why does word for mac 2011 error

    When I am using the word for mac that came installed on my Mac Book Pro, it frequently errors and has to close and I loose my work.  Even though I choose the option to send the report and recover my work, i have lost many things.
    Why does this happen?

    To my knowledge, Apple does not supply MacBook Pros with MS Word installed.
    Pls specify exactly what app and what version you are talking about. If it is really MS Word, then it's possible it wasn't correctly installed. You should re-install MS Office, and then update it, if applicable.

  • Does Word for Mac 2011 have an "Overtype" option

    I have MS Word for Mac 2011, and I want to be able to use Overtype when dealing with my Word documents but  Word for Mac 2011 does not seem to have any option for Overtype.  I have seen in on-line forums solutions for the problem in  Word
    2010 and 2013  but no mention of Word for Mac 2011 solutions.   My version of Word does not have an "Options" option under "File", which is the solution to enabling "overtype" put forth for 2010 & 2013 versions. 
    Is it possible that there is no way to enable "overtype" in Word for Mac 2011?

  • Problems with Office 2011 for mac after upgrading to Mountain Lion

    Office 2011 for mac worked fine with Lion on my MacBook Air.  I had been having some problems with my computer freezing and crashing, so the folks at the Genius Bar wiped my computer clean and installed Mountain Lion for me. 
    I have full backups (Time Machine) from before the wipe on my external hard drive, but I was told not to restore from the backup, that I should drag and drop files instead.  I was also told to re-install any program for which I had the disk.  I reinstalled Office 2011 via the disk.
    Two major problems followed:
    1.     I lost all my old emails (I use Mail).  Even rebuilding the library or trying to restore them from Time Machine don't get them back. 
    2.     Word and Excel don't seem to recognize me anymore.  I can pull up and modify an old document or workbook, but I cannot "save" my changes.  I have to hit "save as." That's a pain, but there's a worse problem.
    I have no trouble saving these "save as" versions to my desktop or to my Documents file.  But I cannot save them anywhere else — even to the folder where I found the original document.  I get a message that I don't have the necessary permissions to access or modify the folders. I'm asked to authenticate, and I do, but that doesn't seem to do anything. 
    I tried Get Info on the workbooks and documents, and I'm clearly granted Read and Write permission. 
    I've done a permissions repair via Disk Utility.  There were some things to repair, but it didn't solve my problem. 
    I know I can move all documents to an external hard drive and then recreate all the folders, saving all the documents and workbooks "as" but it seems a huge amount of work.  Can anybody suggest an easier route or how to get my email history?

    You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type:  'resetpassword' (without the 's) and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

  • What version of Freehand will work on OSX Mountain Lion?

    I am looking at switching from a powerbook to an iMac that is running OSX Mountain Lion, my version of Freehand is 11.0. What do I need to do to insure that when I receive my iMac that I can install Freehand and it will run?

    Since FreeHand doesn't run natively on Mountain Lion, you will have to run it in Snow Leopard. The way to do that on your Mountain Lion iMac is by using program like Parallels, Fusion, VirtualBox to run Snow Leopard 10.6. You can also use Windows FreeHand in Crossover or WINE.
    This site explains how to set this up: MacStrategy | Article | Virtualising Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (Server)
    Here's a good discussion: FreeHand Forum • View topic - FreeHand is back, at least on my MacBook Pro with Maverick

  • Does Lync for Mac work on EWS ?

  • Office 2011 14.3.9 for Mac update not recognizing mountain lion

    I've tried several times to update to Office 2011 14.3.9, both via auto update and by downloading the update.
    Keep getting the following message-
    Office 2011 14.3.9 update can't be installed on this disk. This software requires Mac OS X version 10.5.8 or later.
    I am on a 2012 cMBP running Mountain Lion 10.8.5.
    I've kept office regularly updated in the past, presently it is 14.3.8
    I've tried everything in this thread including the termina suggestion, and none of it seems to work, plus my activity monitor doesn't even show the database and syncservices mentioned in the thread, with all activities selected-
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18307527#18307527

    Solution to problem found:
    Got to looking around, and found this: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5425709?start=0&tstart=0
    The gist is this:
    The OS X 10.8.5 update, at least for a lot of folks, made the mach_kernel visible and relocated it to the Documents folder.  It needs to be in the root folder, must be there same folder as system and applications, and it is usually invisible there.
    I remembered finding it in the Documents folder and tossing it in the trash.  Fortunately I hadn't emptied the trash yet.  I simply moved it to the root folder, rebooted as added insurance repaired permissions, rebooted again, and now all is well, perfect safe boot and everything.  I never did a safe boot before so had no idea it loped the way it does.  Pretty cool…
    As an added bonus, what got me to trying a safe boot was that the latest Office update wouldn't recognize mountain lion, it thought i was running something prior to 10.5.x, so it wouldn't install.  It has now installed perfectly.
    Additionally, per the above link/forum thread, I hid the mach_kernel again, with this command in the terminal-  sudo chflags hidden /mach_kernel  which also worked perfectly.
    All is well, yea!

  • Why so many requests for keychain password in osx mountain lion

    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I have been deluged with requests for keychain login password (which is the same as my user password).  I was getting requests from assistantd (sic) as well as osx itself.  I think the assistantd requests have stopped since I turned off dictation and facetime.  I have verified the keychain and even ran repair keychain even though verify found no problems.  Ideas?

    I have encountered the same issue.  I upgraded to 10.8 from 10.6.9 days ago, and I receive a keychain password request every 10-15 minutes (I know this after recording them in an effort to determine the issue). The requests vary, and are not perfectly timed.  I went to a local Apple Store yesterday to request some help, and a Genius repaired my keychain, zapped my PRAM, and booted from the 10.8 startup partition to run the following on my startup HD: Disk Utility repair, Disk Permissions repair, and resetpassword from the terminal.  These did not stop the keychain requests.
    There's no corresponding message or trigger listed in the Console.  I have noticed the following message occur sometimes within ~3 minutes after a keychain request:
    8/5/12 3:33:42.154 PM assistantd[6226]: <Error>: AceConnection - NSStreamEventErrorOccurred <__NSCFInputStream: 0x7fe2ac027520>, error = Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=54 "The operation couldn’t be completed. Connection reset by peer", domain = NSPOSIXErrorDomain, code = 54

    And if I refuse to provide the keychain password, the following errors are logged in Console:

    Any ideas from anyone?  It's actually difficult to work with all of these keychain requests.

    How do I sync Office 2011 for Mac (Outlook) contacts with Contacts under Mountain Lion (or iOS6)?  Outlook doesn't seem to have moved on from iSync, and meddling seems to produce unpredictable results.

    You can't. Microsoft have not added support for the industry standard sync protocols iCloud uses.

The way the forum works changed some time ago and I have to say that although I have used this forum on and off almost since its inception the current iteration is far from intuitive.
