Downloading Mountain Lion, It says Calculating!?
I started downloading OS X Mountain Lion for my MacBook Pro (Late 2011) and suddenly it stopped downloading. I thought it was just temporary so I waited an hour. Then it said "Calculating". It stopped at 385.20 MB of 4.34 GB. It's been like this for another hour. And no time. It could be calculating the time left, but it doesn't download.
Please Help!
I wanted to restart so i paused it, put accidentally unpaused it and it started to work again! but i think it's going to stop working again soon..

I am downloading mountain lion it says it's calculating
I am almost finished downloading Mountain Lion and now it is calculating and isn't finishing
Everytime you restart the router or the download you waste time. It will take anywhere up to 3 hours to download, more while you mess with it.
Be patient. -

I downloaded mountain lion and then the new office suite (word, ppt, excel) but now when I try to display one of my ppt's it says 'ppt cannot open the file...the file may be corrupt, in use, not a type recognized by ppt etc.." how can I fix it?? HELP
Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:

PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office. -
why would it state under the "more about this mac" that i already have10.8.3 and then in the app store say i need to "resume" do you know what i mean? is it possible i already did download mountain lion entirely once? I am confused and don't want it twice
This is cause by the way the App Store checks to see if an application is installed on your system.
Basically when an app is installed it is in the Applications folder and this is where the MAS looks for them. So it looks at your purchase history for the apps you bought and looks in the Applications folder to see if they are installed. If an app is in your purchase history but not in the Applications folder the MAS says you need to install it.
For normal apps this works fine but the OS doesn;t install into the Applications folder. So the MAS sees you have Mountain Lion in your purchase history but it's not in the Applications folder and so it says you need to download it.
Hopefully one of these days Apple wil fix this.

I recently downloaded mountain lion and just had it emailed to me but I'm having trouble downloading it to my computer. I cannot find the button that says "redeem" under quick links.
You must have a minimum of OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8 installed on your Mac to have the Mac App Store. The Quick Links are on the Featured pane.

I downloaded Mountain Lion this morning. Now when I try to open a document in Pages, it says I need a newer version. When I go to the App Store, it says I have Pages installed.
What version of Pages are you running now?
The newest update is 4.2 at least for the box set version I have which came out a couple of days ago. -
I downloaded Mountain Lion. I love it..but now my Fujitsu Scansnap scanner will not work. Fujitsu says I need to contact Adobe for the driver. Yet Adobe doesn't list a driver, only the pricey upgrades. Is this true?

I just download mountain lion to my mac, now microsoft office suite doesn't work....it says 'you can't open the application 'microsoft word' because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. What does this mean and what do I have to do to fix it?? HELP!!
Install Snow Leopard on another boot partition, or upgrade Microsoft Office to a newer version, or use any number of better alternatives. Some of them are free.
Consider
LibreOffice (donation-supported)
NeoOffice ($10)
OpenOffice (completely free)
In addition to the above I also recommend Apple's Pages ($19.99). I use OpenOffice and Pages and have been completely Microsoft - free for over a year now. Life is better without Microsoft. -

Trying to up date my OSX currently use 10.7.5. i have tried to download mountain lion but it says i need 10.8.0 but i cant find the download link to download 10.8.0 HELPPPP!!!
Download Mac OS X 10.9 from the Mac App Store. If it's incompatible with your computer, Mac OS X 10.8 will be as well.

Downloaded Mountain Lion the download of 4.4 Gb is complete but it shows calculating and nothing seems to be happening
If you force quit the installer, you might want to consider making a copy of the installer and moving the copy out of your Applications folder. The installer self destructs when the installation is complete and a copy would keep you from having to download the installer again. You could also consider making a bootable DVD/USB installer so you can delete the copy off your hard drive. The program is free and does all the work for you.

I am currently running 10.7.5 on my macbook. I tried downloading Mountain Lion application...but it says 'error'',,,is there another way to upgrade my OS?
First we need to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
The Early 2006 model 1,1 Core Duo can only run a maximum of 10.6 Snow Leopard.
The models Late 2006 Core 2 Duos 2,1 through Early 2008 4,1 can only run a maximum of 10.7 Lion.
The Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody through the Mid 2010 White Unibody model 7,1 can run 10.8 Mountain Lion. -
So, I was downloading Mountian Lion to my mac.... It was taking a while but I thought possibly that was normal. When I checked back, Mountain Lion was gone, not even downloading anymore and I thought to myself, It couldn't be downloaded already. So I went to the app store and it now says an error has occured... I have no idea what to do now...... Can someone help please?

No, there is no ISP limit on my bandwidth. I have restarted my router but still no success. I can download other Apps but with Mountain lion 10.8 it simply says waing in mission control and in the App Store it say "an error has occurred". I have been working at this now for 3 days and it is very frustrating and I do not think the error is on my side but elsewhere.
I would suggest to contact the Mac App Store Support Team. Make sure to note down the error message and the steps that you do that lead to the problem. Click the link below and select the "Contact Support" option in the sidebar, there you'll be able to appropiately select your options and possible support solutions including contacting the Mac App Store via e-mail.
