Fix for Wifi issues in Mountain Lion

I've tried all the solutions on the forums that I could find and none of these fixed my wifi issues. This however did:
- Change the SSID of your wireless network.
I'm pretty sure I had a similar issue with Lion and sorted it by deleting all the preference files like others have said, but it didn't work for me this time. I'm convinced that the common issue is that it's a corrupt or duplicate config.
Anyway, I thought I'd post this to help others.

UPDATE
A week or so ago my wifi suddenly stopped working again on both my Macbook and Mac Mini. Note that my PC, iPad and iPhone continue to work.
I've changed my SSID twice now and this time I was determined to figure out an alternative solution. Again I tried every solution I could find, this time what worked is chagning my router to only broadcast on the 'N' wireless band.
This has fixed it however it's not a great solution as my wireless printer is 'G' only. Until Apple resolve this issue I'm happy to print with a network cable if it means my Macs work.

Tap to click not working properly in Mountain Lion. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

The tap to click does not work with mountain lion as it did before the mountain lion install. I purchased a brand new imac in August of 2011 and got a wireless keyboard and selected the wireless trackpad instead of a mouse. The trackpad worked wonderful pre upgrade with tap to click. Now after the install of the newest beast, I have to actually press the trackpad rather than a slight tap. I have carpel tunnel and this is causing great stress upon my hand. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

Perhaps, I was not clear enough.
I have an imac purchased in Aug. 2011 which came with Lion 10.6 (two uprades before mountain lion)
Recently, I just purchased a macbook pro retina with Mountain Lion
On my imac, my settings allowed me to "tap to click" everything EXCEPT the initial log in at the star up of my imac, again running Lion 10.6
On my macbook pro retina which has Mountain Lion, I set up the "tap to click" option, but notice that a "hard" click was neccessary when trying to click things. I thought this was a macbook thing (my first one) so I went and upgraded my imac to Mountain LIon, BIG MISTAKE! Now both my imac AND my macbook only have limited "tap to click" options. Before mountain lion I could "tap" to highlight and select text, tap and drag, and many other thiings that Mountain Lion has disabled.
I am truly surprised that no one has noticed this MAJOR issue.
Is there a way to uninstall this update, similar to how on a PC you can go back to a restore point.
On another note even the way PREVIEW has changed is less user friendly, there used to be icons on the bottom right corner of the screen, now I have to double tap and select the option I would like to switch between contacts and thumbnails. This is really annoying and is causing me time when reviewing files.
Just in case anyone was wondering, I did go to system preferences -> trackpad -> select tap to click
In fact almost all of the trackpad functions have been selected.

Fix for Flash player in Mountain lion/Safari 6.0

Hi, i was having problems with flash player but found a fix, it takes a while but it worked for me. First install the latest flash player. now mount the flash player installer, go to flash player installer and right click, then "open package contents", then go to contents, resources and right click adobe flash player.pkg, right click and show package contents. then go to contents, and extract archive.pax.gz. A folder named library should appear in your downloads. Copy everything in application support folder to the applicaton support folder in your computers library. Do the same for Internet plugins folder and preferences panes. Lastly, copy com.adobe.fpsaud.plist to the preferences folder in you computers library, and voila, flash player will work in mountain lion.
i hope this solves it for everybody else!

I, actually read another thread that suggested resetting Safari so I tried this and it has been functioning normally since that time. Thanks for the help though.

Any fix for wifi issues with ios8?

Just submitting another questions asking for help with IOS8 wifi issues. Nobody from Apple has commented or acknowledged any issues with wifi, so we, the users, are left to fend for ourselves.
My specific issue is that 5GHz Wireless N seems to have incredibly short range, and 2.4GHZ Wireless N cuts out after about 3 seconds of use. I have tried all of the fixes described in every post I can find. I've deleted network settings, I've completely wiped the phone and started from scratch, I've done everything possible.
Now that wifi doesn't work with IOS8 I can no longer use my iPhone 5 with AirPlay our any of my other devices in my home. The fact that Apple has refused to say anything about the problem, and the fact that they are blocking users from rolling back shows a level of arrogance that's absolutely amazing. Thankfully this is all happening before I bought an iPhone6, which I'm now seriously considering avoiding if this experience is any indication of Apple's commitment to quality.
Are there any other tricks out there to get 2.4Ghz working? I know that we, the poor users of Apple products, are on our own, so I'm hoping that someone can help.

I got iPhone 6 IOS8 [ not updated ] for a few months now worked fine until now WiFi not working in my home tried reset , turning off phone , nothing worked , Got it to work by unplugging the router WiFi Box unit for a few seconds ! works like a charm now , Super fast

Video Streaming Issues in Mountain Lion

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I have been experiencing problems streaming video files to my Sony Bravia TV. Although I have seen other posts complaining about audio streaming, streaming via wifi, etc. I haven't seen any posts with exactly the same setup as mine.
I have a mid-2007 iMac and I have iSedora, a DLNA media server, installed and streams video over a LAN. My TV is connected using a Powerline setup, so that there are no issues with WiFi. With Mountain Lion, I have been experiencing stuttering video (and audio) when I watch film and TV video files which are located on my iMac. I have to keep pausing the stream to allow it to 'catch up'. Basic animation video is okay.
Initially, I thought that my iMac was 'too old', but it is able to cope with any transcoding as the CPU is not overwhelmed at all.
I have tried Serviio, but that also has the same problem, and as I have a NAS, I can also stream the same 'problematic' video files without any problems.
I only hope Apple can sort this 'bug' out, which seems to be limiting the output of the stream somehow, or I am seriously thinking about downgrading back to Lion, even though I like everything else about ML.
I haven't seen any workarounds, but would be willing to
Paul

since upgrading from Lion to Mountain Lion I am also experiencing strange text issues to the point that my 27" i5 iMac is unusable for any application requiring text input. Because of this problem I am doing most of my work these days on my iPad.
Basically what happens is that I will be typing text when suddenly the cursor will leap to another part of the preceding text and insert itself. If I don't catch this immediately any typing I do overwrites the text after the new re-insertion point. Other times the text will suddenly start scrolling or a section will select all by itself and then delete. This is happening with pretty much every application that has text capabiity.
My iMac has 12 GB of RAM. So that is not the problem. And I seem to be clean from malware. The problem started as soon as I upgraded to Mountain Lion. My 27" iMac which is my main computer is now for all intents and purposes useless. Every day I pray for OS updates. But so far nothing.

How to enable logging for mail.app in Mountain Lion

I am at my wits end trying to figure this out....
Does anyone have a clue how to enable the logging for mail.app under Mountain Lion?
In the past, you could open up Console and click on Console.log and see the logging of mail. Under mountain Lion, there is no more console.log. I cannot figure out how to enable it.
I have tried to run the AppleScript of "Turn On Logging" but the script errors out under Mountain Lion.
Does anyone know how to do this or a better way, maybe a tool or something that can help you troubleshoot mail.app issues?
Thanks in advanced

Hello,
I have a similar problem. The script "Turn on Logging.scpt" runs without error, but I do not see any socket logging. I only get two messages, which I also get when I start mail without the script by just clicking the mail.app icon in the dock. The Messages are:
1/10/13 3:43:32.618 PM Mail[11276]: Using V2 Layout
1/10/13 3:43:36.388 PM Mail[11276]: *** -[IADomainCache init]: IA domains cache is out of date.
Any help would be appreciated

Has Apple done anything to address the issue of Mountain Lion's inability to support Epson printers? I have a Stylus Photo RX620 that now is useless. I am not a computer geek so would rather not try to do an uninstall of Mt. Lion and go back to S.Leopard

Have you tried to open System Preferences, then Print & Scan and then try to Add + a printer?
I have an Epson RX580 and am using OS X 10.8.2 and it is working as a (Bonjour) printer. My Epson RX580 is plugged into my AirPort Extreme and I can print over my wireless network to the RX580. However, I do not see any Scan options with this setup.
Anyone know anything about getting the scanning portion of the RX580 to work over the network like the printing function does with my Airport Extreme? Or can I not "share" a scanner over the USB port on the Airport Extreme? I know, kind on topic/off topic - but I think it fits under OS questions better.
Thanks for your advice!

OS X - Fix for wifi disconnect after suspend/resume

OS X - Fix for wifi disconnect after suspend/resume
I've purchased a Mac recently and since upgrading to Maverick have been having some problem with wifi after suspend/resume. Looking into the issue, I've found this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5495375 and some people have reported that turning off bluetooth did fix the issue.
For my case, this was not possible, so I've tried to make a little fix, that disable bluetooth on suspend and enable it on wake, but with a 10 seconds delay, in order to let the wifi connect successfully.
Here is my github repo for anyone to look at the code: https://github.com/Setsuna666/osx-wifibtfix
Here is the latest version of the fix, which include an uninstall script: https://github.com/Setsuna666/osx-wifibtfix/archive/v1.0.2.zip
If you have any questions or issues, please post it here so it can be easier for me to keep track of.

Installed properly this time:
It appears to work, when I resume from sleep the Bluetooth icon is off (gray) and wifi connects, after 10s Bluetooth icon comes on again.
Here is the correct output:

TS1550 Time Machine issue with Mountain Lion. Can you help?

I have an Iomega Mac Companion used as an external backup drive for my Imac running Mountain Lion. After launching Time Machine, I got an error message that said the backup couldn't' be completed because an error occurred while creating the backup folder. I rebooted and everything was fine for 24 hours. Since then, I get the same error message even after another reboot. In Time Machine preferences it says "oldest backup none" and "latest backup none."
Any suggestions?
GR

Finally have it solved!! Sort of... I spoke with Mac support on two occasions and they were extremely helpful. Thought the issue was with the firewire 800 connection. Switched to a USB connection and everything worked great...for about 24 hours. Then had the same error messages. Chatted with Iomega tech support and they finally admitted that there are known issues with Mountain Lion, there is no work around and they have no intention of making it compatible with 10.8.
I'm returning the drive today. Thanks for your help and suggestions. Suggestions for a decent back up hard drive that will work with Mountain Lion?

I bought an epson xp650 a couple of months ago and cannot fault it. It does everything I require and it is the wifi model so I can print directly from my ipad/iphone. Not sure if you are asking about the colour of the unit or just to be able to print black and white, Obviously all printers will print black and white but just to give you a little more info the printer I bought is the white version and it looks really nice sat next to my imac 27''
Hope this helps.

Open the Mac App Store on the other Mac and in the Quick Links sign into your account. See if the Mountain Lion purchase is among hidden apps in the iCloud area of your account info.

HT1476 iphone 5 usb does not charge in my 2013 Honda Accord. Is there a fix for this issue?

iphone 5 usb does not charge in my 2013 Honda Accord. Is there a fix for this issue? It will connect via bluetooth but when I go to connect the usb charger it states that it is not compatible or you never get the charging display on your iPhone 5. It charges just fine when I use the AC charger in the house. At first I thought it may have been the cord but the same cord works fine in the house too. This causes problems when you take long trips and don't have any way to charge your phone while on the road. Are there any upcoming fixes/iupdates either to the software or usb cord that will fix this?

Doc notes:
Bugs: SDK-24669, SDK-24686
Reviewer: Corey
Cycloner: George
Tests run: checkintests
Is noteworthy for integration: yes, fixes two FB issues.
Code-level description of changes:
modules/compiler/src/java/flex2/tools/PreLink.java
    Modified postRun() to swap in the root CompilationUnit's Logger
    when validating it's StyleContainer. This allows the warnings
    from StylesContainer.validate() to be persisted across incremental
    compilations. This fixes SDK-24686.
modules/compiler/src/java/flex2/compiler/Source.java
    Made getLogger() public, so it could be called from PreLink.
modules/compiler/src/java/flex2/compiler/CompilerAPI.java
    Modified compile() to check forcedToStop() after each PreLink
    batch. This fixes SDK-24669.
