  • How can I edit iCal server addresses in Mountain Lion? I keep getting an error with regards to my google calendar and I understand that the way to fix the problem is adjust the server address, but I cannot access it because the preferences are restrictive

    How can I edit iCal server addresses in Mountain Lion?
    I keep getting an error message with my google calendar, and I heard that if I delete the extra slash at the end of the address the problem will be fixed. But the iCal account preferences take me to system preferences > accounts every time I want to edit the account.
    Does anyone know where I can edit the server address?

    You should ask in the iCloud forum, this is for iMacs. https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_mac

  • Lost Diary and Addresses in Mountain Lion

    Alright, so Mountain Lion appears to be as useful as mud in a bath. With the trouble in Mail, I now find there is major hassle in Addresses and Calender. My addresses have gone AWOL as has my Diary. Why oh why can't Apple get their up dates correct?
    I have no idea what I can do to get the three problems sorted. Is there anyway I can revert back to 10.7.3 which worked far better than the 10.7.4 or 10.8. Equally so is there anyway I can revert back to the Mail and Contacts and Diary as it was under 10.7.3?
    I am really miffed at what has happened to my machine since sticking 10.8 in. It is a complete and utter waste of time.

    Again, I have no idea how this question got in to the iPad Forum. To my knowledge, I have never been in that Forum! I do not have any other Apple products apart from the iMac and in view of the unbelievable problems I have had, I certainly wouldn't want to get any other Apple Product if they behave the way this machine does.
    I have transferred this discussion on the Mountain_Lion forum.
    Maybe someone there will be able to help, but I am not convinced!!

  • Finder NFS Refresh In Mountain Lion

    Hi,
    In Lion the Finder always had issues refreshing the contents of NFS shares, and it would consistently show old data...is this now resolved with Mountain Lion?

    Considering how many OS updates have occurred since this bug first showed up (10.7), my confidence that Apple will truly address it is rather low.
    That said, we wrote a little automator script (appears as an icon on our finder window) that essentially umounts our nfs shares...this rather destructive work-around seems to work and we would be happy to share it with you.

  • I can't open iCal after updating Mountain Lion

    After updating Mountain Lion, I can't open iCal. It keeps reopening and sending report to Apple if I press restart.
    What can I do?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Open Finder and delete:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.iCal
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iCal.plist
    If it doesn't help, press Command and R keys in boot and reinstall OS X

  • Solving self-assigned ip address for Mountain Lion

    Like every thread I've ran into, so far, I'm also having iissues resoloving the self-assigned ip address "nightmare" on my 2009 MBP after ugrading to Mountain Lion.  I've tried everything the threads have suggested, ranging from creating new locations to deleting network preferences.  Does ANYONE have a solution that worked?

  • Finder Window Resize in Mountain Lion

    Finder, Two Monitors, on one I keep a number of folders open in List View.  This suits my workflow.
    In Lion we lost the the upper right hand button that switched on and off the Sidebar...OK, that changed, I can live with that.
    Clearly it switches of and on by selecting the Window and View>Sidebar (off/on) or option>command S. OK..so far!
    You could always resize a window by grabbing the lower right hand corner. Lion and back!! 
    (Letter A...see later) Now with Mountain Lion, in List View you can only size the window height and the width only adjusts just so far (too wide, I only want to see the filenames).
    Switch Sidebar on and then off again and now the right hand corner works as it always has going back eons. and I can resize the window narrower as I want it.
    Again...OK as far as it goes.  Now either Reboot, Restart or just log out and in and when Finder opens you see the window you sized as you left if for just a moment and then....ZONK, WOOSH....almost as if by magic and before your eyes...it pops back to some crazy default width that is too wide so now you I am back to Letter A (see above).  As you can see you are caught in a circle never being able to get back to how this Finder Software has worked for perhaps the past 20 or so years.
    I accept that I may be doing something wrong...but I can't for the life of me find it in this group and have tried every preference I can find...nothing helps.  I sincerely think this is a bug...but I'm open to being enlightened (provided I can continue to use my long standing workflow).
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi John,
    Since we started with OS X each release has cool new features and new little annoyances or things that don't work. Plus these days everyone is an "expert", so we get no real help from Apple and tons of bad info - maybe especially on this, the Apple "support" site.
    Sorry I assumed you recognized Applescript. Here's how to do it:
    First, make sure the Finder window you want to work with is open and set up close to what you want (ie. sidebar hidden, view as list, sort by name, etc.)
    Then open the AppleScript Editor app (which should be in the Utilities folder) and choose "New" from the File menu.
    Paste in:
         tell application "Finder
              get bounds of window "Applications"
         end tell
    Then click the "Run" button at the top of the window. It will return something like:{1604, 44, 1864, 1165}, which are the rectangular coordinates of the window "Applications". The numbers represent left side, top, right side, and bottom.
    That first script is just to get the start point for finding the rectangle you want to end up with.
    Open another New script window from the File menu and paste in:
                    tell application "Finder"
                                  set bounds of window "Applications" to {1604, 44, 1864, 1165} -- or whatever rectangle you want
                   end tell
    When you click "Run" it will set the Applications window to the rect specified. Just play with the numbers to get the exact size and location you want.
    I haven't tried rebooting yet, but you can save the script to run anytime, even add it to your startup items to make it run at boot time if necessary.
    Cheers...

  • Where can I find calendar library in mountain lion time machine backup

    Hi together,
    I just had a series of new hardware and problems with the software. In december I had to buy a new MBP as the motherboard of my old one was damaged. So now, with mountain lion, I only have made one backup with time machine so far.
    A few days ago I bought an iPad for the first time. Thats why I was reading the instruction for icloud and tried a few things. And there I made a mistake and all calender entries were deleted.
    Thought: no big problem, as I have a backup. BUT I cant find the calendar files in the backup. I know, that the library is only shown in "Go to + alt-key", but I dont find it in the backup. (I tried also an terminal command written in a community thread, but nothing happend)
    Please, can anybody help me?
    Thanks a lot in advance!!!!

    If you synchronize any of your calendars with a server such as iCloud, disable that synchronization. Quit Calendar.
    Triple-click the line below to select it: ~/Library/Calendars Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu. A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Enter Time Machine and restore that folder from the snapshot you want.
    Relaunch Calendar and test. Your calendars should be as they were when the snapshot was taken. If you don't sync with a server, stop here. If you do sync some of the calendars with a server, select each one in turn and then select
    File ▹ Export ▹ Export…
    from the menu bar. You'll get ICS files with the filename extension ".ics". Re-enable sync. Usually, all the calendars you just restored will be deleted. That's not a problem. Create a new calendar on the server for each one you exported and want to sync:
    File ▹ New Calendar
    Then import the calendar from the corresponding ICS file:
    File ▹ Import ▹ Import…
    Follow the prompts to import the new events to the calendar you just created. For calendars that you don't want to sync, just import them again. They'll appear in the calendar list under On My Mac.

  • Strange Finder behaviour since installing Mountain Lion

    I've been experiencing some strange finder behaviour since updating to Mountain Lion. Folders take several seconds to open after clicking on them (and sometimes won't open at all) and files cannot be moved around the desktop or dragged on to an app. However, it is possible to open a file by clicking on it. I've tried re-booting with Snow Leopard and everything seems OK, but as soon as I go back to ML, the problem starts again.

    Library is a folder, not a file. There're more than one Library folders, one at the root and one for each user in your Mac. All of them are hidden, this is why you can't find them. But you can see their contents using
    Finder Menu > Go > Go to Folder
    And then type:
    ~/Library
    for your Library Folder
    -or-
    /Library
    for the root Library folder.

  • Old Lion Finder bug reappears in Mountain Lion -- lost options

    There were a number of problems with the Finder View options under Lion which were fixed bit-by-by, upgrade-by-upgrade.
    In general, folder placement was scrambled and view options were lost/reset after certain operations.
    Now, with Mountain Lion, some of these problems have resurfaced:
    -- I use Show View Options to increase the size of icons and to set the background of a folder to a color
    -- I use Mail to attach a file from this folder via the Attach window
    When I return to the folder after sending my Mail message, icon size and background color have been reset to default.
    In Lion, the Always Show in Icon View option was also reset.
    So far this hasn't happened in Mountain Lion.
    Anyone else haveing this problem?

    I tried and don't see any issues. When you say the "Attach" window, what does that mean? Do you mean the "Share" contextual submenu or button (or does it translate to "attach" from another localization)?
    If it is something other than Share submenu, then is that a third-party program that provides that function?
    You might consider deleting the .DS_Store file from that folder. Various utilities can remove them, like OnyX, or you can use the Terminal.

  • Remove "Finder" from dock in Mountain Lion?

    I would like to remove the Finder icon from my dock.
    I know people are going to ask "Why?" Simply because, I don't like it being there.
    I know Finder is always open and I know to close it would cause problems. I don't want to close it, I am just wondering if there is a way to remove, or hide it, from the dock so I don't have to see it.
    Thanks!

    I found the solution a few years ago, and posted it on the forums I could find, but nobody seemed to propogate it.  The LSUI Element solution is FLAWED because the menu of the application dissapears when the application is running.
    Anyway, the solution is to edit DockMenus.plist and add a "Remove from Dock" option to the "finder-running" category.  Then you can remove it by right clicking like normal.  You can find the remove from dock option in DockMenus, and then copy and paste it into the finder-running category.  And if you add it to the processes category, you can remove other running applications too!
    /System/Library/CoreServices/Dock/Contents/Resources/DockMenus.plist
    Now, once you remove the Finder, it can only reappear if the Dock process is relaunched.  And this only happens when you log in.  So the best way to have your Finder icon always gone, is to make a small applescript which clicks the "Remove from Dock" option FOR you, and then put that applescript in your login items.
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "Dock"
              tell UI element "Finder" of list 1
                        perform action "AXShowMenu"
                        click menu item "Remove from Dock" of menu 1
              end tell
    end tell
    This worked for Snow Leopard and it works for Mountain Lion too.  I'm assuming it worked for Lion also.

  • "open in finder" doesn't work (mountain lion)

    I had a strange problem pop up recently in Mac OS X Mountain Lion where operations to reveal a file in the Finder would not work. I noticed it first in Chrome where I would try and open a downloaded file and could not get to it. Then I tried to reveal a download in Safari and got the same thing (confirming it was not a bug in Chrome).
    I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012)

    For those of you who have the problem, I discovered that you need atleast one Web Widget in your Widgets folder.
    I copy one over from our MBP, and the functionality returned.

  • I can't find /Library/Frameworks on Mountain Lion. Is somebody having the same issue?

    I am using Mountain Lion and I managed to unhid the Library folder. I was downloading packages from the net and according to the R terminal the packages are stored in
    "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.15/Resources/library"
    but when I go to the Library folder I can't find the Frameworks directory.
    Somebody has any suggestions on where to search for the /Library/Frameworks ?
    Thanks

    The hidden ~/Library folder is in your User.
    "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.15/Resources/library" is in your top level Library.

  • TS4065 Dimmed "Find my Mac" with Mountain Lion

    I have Mountain Lion.
    I get the same dimmed "Find my Mac", but instead of "Update" I have a "More" button.
    When I press it, it tells me that "Find my Mac needs a recovery partition".
    The recipe given here doesn't work because I have Mountain Lion.
    What should I do ?

    Thanks for your fast reply. Let me just tell the full story. My IMac was eligible for a seagat 1TB disk replacement. Apple did it an reinstall mountain lion, as it was before. I then recuparated my data from the Time Machine. All went fine. I see that the "Recovery HD" was created.
    But looking around I found that dimmed "Find my Mac". Here is the picture I get exactly (after having press "More" next to "Find my Mac").

  • Can't find networked printers in mountain lion

    Tyring to setup Mountain Lion with a networked printer.  Does not show up when trying to add printer.  This seems to be happening on any Mountain Lion computer that I setup.  (10.8.x)  Adding networked printers in Lion worked just fine, but not in Mountain Lion.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Printers don't advertise on Windows. The Windows print server can be configured to advertise a printer, but usually you must enter the details of the device to add it.
    As for Mac, it sounds like you're talking about multiple network printers as opposed to a single network printer.
    Do you know if the printer in question supports Bonjour?
    How is this printer connected to the network - wireless or wired?
    Can you ping the printer?
    Can you connect to its internal web page?
    If you use a utility like Bonjour Browser, does this see the printer on the 10.8 Mac?
    You may want to give some specific examples instead of a blanket statement.
