Finding a USB or Ethernet wifi adapter comp w/Mountain Lion

Where I live/work I only have access the kind of internet that hotels use. I have to login with each device to access the internet, and only one device at a time. This is a bummer, I used to use connectify but wifi - wifi on mountain lions built in router isn't an option. Up until lately I have been able to logon to my internet through hardwire (ethernet). I just moved rooms and this room has no ethernet hookup, so I am looking for a small usb wifi adapter. I hope this would work that then I could choose to use my computer as a router by way of USB to WIFI.
Has anyone used one that is easily compatible with Mountain Lion?
Thanks

Ethernet is the best by far.. as the actual print server is built into the printer.. If you use USB you are using a connection designed for local printers not network. And you are using the TC as print server which it does an absolutely minimal job of.. it has no ability to correctly assess printer conditions or send accurate details back to the client.. Whereas a proper network printer can controls all kinds of aspects of the print controller.

ITunes on iMac with USB g/b wifi adapter won't detect other Apple devices

Hi guys
I have an iMac 20" running OSX 10.6 (latest version) from about 2006 which the built-in wifi adapter broke on so I now use a USB wifi g/b adapter which works fine for connecting to our wifi router/modem.
The problem I have is that my other apple devices, an iPhone 4, my old iPhone 3G and my 2nd gen Apple TV cannot connect to my computer. My iPhone and Apple TV connect to each other with no problem at all.
I am wondering whether the fact that the USB wifi adapter on my iMac only runs g/b and not n is likely to be the cause. If anyone knows if this is the case or has any other suggestions I would appreciate it very much as I'd really like to use content from my iMac on my Apple TV.
Many thanks
Neil

I suggest you post over in the correct -> iMac forum or the Snow Leopard - networking forum

Internet sharing from Wifi to Ethernet is not working after Mountain Lion upgrade

First I was having trouble just connecting these two, now I can't get the Internet sharing to work. Here's what I am trying to do: I want to share my Macbook Pro's internet connection from it's Wifi to another laptop I have connected via ethernet cable. They will ping each other now. The problem now is that the laptop won't pick up the Internet connection from the Macbook Pro, even though I have it configured exactly as I had in Snow Leopard. Nothing has changed on the laptop from before when it worked fine with Snow Leopard. But now that I updated to Mountain Lion, Internet sharing no longer works no matter what I try. I've been trying to find a solution by to no avail. Could anyone here offering some advice or a solution that will fix my problem? I've been over the basic steps over and over again, so please don't ask me to do something stupid like reboot or check the Sharing settings. They're exactly how they are meant to be, but the thing just won't work.

Ran a TCPdump on my Macbook Pro. It is recieving the ping requests, but the laptop still isn't getting replies to its pings. So something is wrong in the Macbook's configuration somewhere. I don't know where, though.

Ethernet connection issues after installing Mountain Lion

After installing Mountain Lion I can't get my iMac to connect by ethernet. It says that no cable is connected. The cable/connection is fine. When I plug in my MacBook Pro running Lion, the ethernet connects just fine.

same exact problem. in fact, my iMac24 (2009) worked flawlessly until I installed the latest update to Mountain Lion. I then checked my MBAir (2011) and it too has a problem when using the USB/Ethernet adapter. Neither can get an ethernet connection. I deleted my network preferences and rebooted my machine, played around with my Ethernet switch and even reboot my gateway/router. I've never had to do any of this to my network until Mountain Lion. Wireless is the only thing that continues to work on both machines.

Need help to find photo's on my backup drive,since installing Mountain Lion cannot find where they are stored.The backups after ML install are greyed out except in Applications, MyFiles and Devices really welcome a hand with this please.

I need help to find my photo's please (2500) on my backup drive.Lost them after doing a clean install of Mountan Lion I have tried to find them but had no luck. I use Time Machine with a 1TB Western Digital usb drive. Thanking anyone in anticipation of a solution.

-Reece,
We only have 1 single domain, 1 domain forest, no subdomains, only alias. I had replied to the other post as well. But I am happy to paste it here in case anyone want to read it.
So, after a few months of testing, capture and sending logs back and forth to Apple Engineers, we found out there is a setting in AD, under User Account that prevent us to log into AD from Mountain Lion. If you would go to your AD server, open up a user account properties, then go to Account tab, the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" option is checked. As soon as I uncheck that option, immediately I was able to log into AD on the Mac client. Apple engineers copied all my AD settings and setup a test environment on their end and match exact mine AD environment. They was able to reproduce this issue.
The bad part about this is... our environment required the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" is checked in AD, in order for our users to login into some of our Unix and Linux services. Which mean that it is impossible for us to remove that check mark because most, if not all of them some way or another require to login into applications that run on Unix and Linux. Apple is working to see if they can come up with a fix. Apparently, no one has report this issue except us. I believe most of you out there don't have that check mark checked in your environment... Anyone out there have any suggestion to by pass or have a work around for this?

I upgraded my wife's iMac to Mountain Lion. When I try to set up her cloud connection to sync with her iPad and iPhone, it says it is sending a verification email, but it never arrives. Any way around this. Her phone and iPad seem to already be in sync .

When I try to set up my wife's Cloud account after upgrading to Mountain Lion, I click on the "send verification email" box, but the email never arrives. Her iPad and iPhone already seem to sync up in the Cloud, but no storage is being used. Any suggestions on how to get the account on her iMac?

Hi sddmd,
And you have checked her Junk mail folder?

WiFi keeps disconnecting in Mountain Lion 10.8.2 on Macbook Pro

I have an early i7 2011 Macbook Pro. Since upgrading to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 my WiFi keeps disconnecting. There isn't a certain time it disconnects - sometimes it works fine for a few hours, sometimes for just 10 minutes. When the connection is lost, it shows that its connected in the taskbar at the top, however when going into network preferences it shows the WiFi as turned off. In order to turn it back on I need to restart the Mac.
I have tried the following:
reset SMC
delete network preferences
create new network connection
add DNS servers
Add manual MTU
Require password to turn on/off WiFi / change network (still disconnects!)
Change order of preferred networks
I phoned Apple Care who told me to delete the network preferences, this worked for about 5 mins and then the problem returned!
I cannot change the router settings as I connect to my employers network. All other employees using Window machines are working fine and my iPhone connects perfectly fine also.
Somebody please help me! I feel my only option now would to do a clean install - not ideal! Apple, please HELP.
Merry Christmas everyone.

Hi - I have the same problem with my MacBook Pro mid 2010 which drops the wifi connection randomly (not necessarily when I move it or the lid - see other posts on this) and then often ends up freezing when I try to investigate.
I installed Mavericks to see if that would resolve the issue but it doesn't.
Somebody in one of these posts suggested it might be a faulty connection between airport card and mother board... which I suppose could be caused by a jolt to the machine (mine travels as hand luggage on planes every now and then).
I am running OS X 10.9 on a 13 inch Mid 2010 MBP with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and 4 GB 1067MHz DDR3 memory.
If anyone comes up with an answer to this PLEASE post it here so that we can all resolve our wifi dropping/freezing issues!
Thanks

USB device not recognized after upgrade to Mountain Lion

I just upgraded from 10.6.8 to 10.8.2 (mountain lion)
I use a usb audio interface (the Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6, to be exact) for recording. Prior to the OS update, it was working fine. Post-update, it is unrecognizable by my computer... it doesn't show up in the "sound" panel in system preferences, it doesn't show up in the system profiler. It doesn't exist.
I have posted on the Native Instruments forum as well but I thought maybe someone here has had a similar experience. Thanks!

Think I should do just that. I am a loyal NI customer but this is annoying. Apogee is probably a better option with Mac.
Agreed, but don't forget about Lexicon, I use one of their Ionix units (U82S) and it has remained flawless, from Snow Leopard to Mavericks. As far as I know all Lexicon devices work with Mavericks, even the cheap little Alpha.

Audio USB crackles on MBP with Retina and Mountain Lion

I have a USB device connected to my MacBook Pro with Retina Display and the audio crackles no matter what I play. I hardly have any processing working and there are no other USB devices. I think that this was working under Lion but I think this is a problem under Mountain Lion. Anyone else have this problem? I am trying to determine whether the problem is in the MBP or the OS... Thanks :-)

Could be it needs to be connected to both USB port by using a Y USB cable to supply enough power to it. And it won't show up unless there is a CD or DVD disc in it.

HT4628 wifi doesnot startup in mountain lion

After installation of mountain lion, os x 10.8.3, the wifi doesnot start up anymore. Whatever I do I don't get the wifi card working.
In the previous os x software (10.6.8) I did not have any problem.
Pls give me a clou to solve this problem without going back to the previous version.
My computer is a Macbook from end 2008 with an Intel dual core processor, so that will fulfill the 10.8.3 requirements.

HT1822 I don't find any application för Server Admin for my Mountain Lion at Mac app store as stated in the information. Where can I find it?

Where can I find Server Admin after installing Mountain Lion? I can not find it on the store or anywhere? Please help, I need it to connect to my server from my other mac's, in order to administrate without logging in to the server.

If you want the new OS X Server (Mountain Lion) look for "OS X Server" in the App Store.
Server Admin no longer exists for OS X Server - the main functionality like Mail service and Open Directory has been simplified and integrated within the new server app.
The optional Server Admin add-on for Lion was only available from the Apple support site, not from the App store.

WIFI DROPS OUT AFTER MOUNTAIN LION UPDATE

Since upgrade to mountain lion my wifi keeps dropping out after sleep i have ipad and that is ok.

Had the same problem and this worked for me:
Try deleting following two items:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.db
Make sure you take a screenshot of your current dock since deleting these files will reset your dock to default.
Now open terminal and do a sudo reboot w/ your password.
This solved the problem for me.
