Garageband Wonky after Mountain Lion Install

I just upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard and now Garageband '09 (5.1) is acting weird. It will let me start a new project but after working with the software instruments for a bit, Garageband will no longer let me add effects. The effects slots don't even show up. Then the icon for whatever instrument I'm using disappears completely. Then, if I keep trying to work, Garageband crashes. Please help me out here if anyone has any answers.

Problem with mail after mountain lion install

Mail has become sluggish to locking up after Mountain Lion install. I get the color wheel each time I start typing in an address to send an email. I also get the wheel when i am typing an address or name in any web page in Safari. Is this a Mail Problem or an Address Book problem?

It sounds like your computer needs to be cleaned up. Have your repaired permissions or cleared caches since you got the computer. Often times when upgrading operating systems permissions get screwed up and it causes issues. Go to disk utility in your "other" folder in applications. Select disk utility, then on the left hand side choose Mac HD then click REPAIR permissions in the center section. Wait for it to finish, restart your computer, then test.

Why can't i access the app store after Mountain Lion install?

Why can't i access the app store after Mountain Lion install?

Hi There,
What happens when you try to access it? You've not given a lot of information for people to help you.

After Mountain Lion install, my iMac powers off instead of just going to sleep. Help? Thanks.

After I installed Mountain Lion on my 2009 iMac, it will power off after I don't use it a while. It used to just go to sleep, I'd shake the mouse, and it would come back up. Now it powers off and I have to power it back up every time.
My Macbook has NOT had this problem since Mountain Lion install. It is fine.

Do these resets to clear errant commands:
SMC RESET
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
Wait 15 seconds.
Attach the computers power cable.
Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.
PRAM RESET
Zap the PRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Trackpad issues after mountain lion install

Since my Mountain Lion install, the trackpad on my 15" MBP will track, but won't select anything. Hot corners aren't working, the dock won't appear, etc. Anyone have any suggestions?

Got similar issues, no notifications and no switching between full screen apps (4fingerswipe). Some swipe features work, no secondary click in bottsom corners...Trackpad operational under Mountain Lion a total nuisance compared to Snow Leopard...PLease Apple, show some respect again to your faithfull customers and show some response!

Thunderbolt is not working after Mountain Lion installed

I'm putting this discussion again because the problem didn't solve like I thought !
As you can see from the title that I have a problem already after I installed the new OS X Mountain Lion. I got my thunderbolt to Hdmi adabtor connected to an LCD TV and it was working great with snow lepord. But after the I installed Mountain Lion. it won't even recognize that there is something connected and I don't see the options in my System Prefrences> Diplays like before.
I already run software update and it's all up to date and also done a PRAM reset and nothing changed.
It only ok for a couple of min. if I restarted it and without the sound working from the LCD TV.
Please I need help here.

Well I would have hit repair. This might be stemming from a deeper issue with the installation. I've never seen that dialogue box before, and if ignoring it and booting normally worked for you then I say you did the right thing.
however
I would, go to disk utility and then select your boot drive and verify and repair disks and permissions.
if anything else WEIRD should occur, you may want to go to the recovery partition of ML (cmd+R while hearing the boot chime) and reinstalling ML. That dialogue box you mentioned is strange and should be noted. A reinstall will probably fix whatever issue comes up.

Iphoto disconnected after mountain lion install

After installing mountain lion can't access my iphoto library?
Error message claims" iphoto quit unexpectedly"?

you either need to run software update once more (there was a major update for a lot of iLife apps when ML came out for support with ML).
or you need to reinstall ML from the recovery partition after running disk utility and verifing and repairing disks and permissions.
hold CMD R to get into the recovery partition during the boot chime.

Premiere CS6 crashing on start up after Mountain Lion install.

Hi everyone, new to the forum. I'm on a mid-2010 Macbook Pro i5 8GB RAM using the Creative Cloud, mainly Premiere Pro CS6. So, last week installed Mountain Lion (probably a mistake) after I read that there were no issues with Premiere. Well, since then whenever I launch CS6 the purple Premiere art pops up and I get a spinning beach ball every single time and the app doesn't respond. Worked perfectly before ML install. I have called Adobe 3 times...no help. I have done clean installs, cleared preferences, tried on new admin users. No luck. I'm not super tech, if anyone has any words of wisdom, I would love that. Thank you all. Let me know if you need nore info on the issue.

Did this issue ever get resolved for you?

Cannot select buttons in FileMaker after Mountain Lion Install

Because the installer claimed I'd tinkered with my partitions (I haven't, unless accessing BootCamp from Parallels counts), I had to do a clean install of Mountain Lion. That in itself was a pain because I could not successfully create an installer on a USB flash disk after several attempts. I had to boot over the internet. After successfully creating a virgin 10.8 system, I restored my system from Time Machine, last backup a few minutes before I started this process.
None of my mail configuration carried over -- rules, signatures, smart folders all lost. Also lost SignatureProfiles preferences, including the registration code. Those are all things I can painfully recreate. However, I am unable to use FileMaker Pro. When it opens, I am unable to select buttons in the format bar, buttons in my applications, and can't resize the window. I have removed ~/Library/Preferences/*trackpad* and *mouse* to no avail. Removed ~/Library/Preferences/*FileMaker* files (all the way back to FileMaker 5). To no avail.
I created a new account on my system and FileMaker runs fine.
Which preference file is corrupt?

Okay, I logged out, logged in as root, copied all of top root level directories into the new account and changed their ownership appropriately. FileMaker works. I deleted my account, and renamed the new account using apple method to my old account name, and FileMaker fails. Renamed it again to a different name, and it works. I guess 'sbradley' is an invalid account name
Still wishing I could recover my rules and signatures.

After Mountain-Lion-Install no App Store Access

After having installed Mountain Lion I can't access the App Store anymore. It speaks of an inexistant internet connection, altough I am able to surf with Safari. Some pages like outlook.com and the iTunes store are defectively loaded (layout is not shown correctly). Also Safari has certificate problems (but I suppose this is due to missing updates). May there be a connection to an older problem I have? From time to time I have to restart the wifi connection because of "having passed the time limit".
I have already tried to fix the problem by repairing the permissions and resetting Safari and by changing DNS-Server to 8.8.4.4. and 8.8.8.8.
Thank you very much

Problem fixed: it was a certificate problem.

After Mountain Lion install, internet videos stop playing back after only a few seconds. Multiple browsers are affected.

After I installed Mountain Lion, videos streamed from the internet will stop playback after a few seconds of play. Multiple browsers are being affected.

I have this same problem, and I did a clean installation.
Hardware:
2009 MacBoook Pro 17" 3.06 C2D; 4 GB RAM, 256 Apple SSD
While loading the browser is quick starting up, I notice a delay to open any website, like it's preloading the entire page versus just loading. Safari seems like it's a bit sluggish overall with loading web pages.
Did a internet speed test and my U/D rates are the same after the upgrade.

After mountain lion install, lost some of mail.

after installing mountain lion, my mail lost most of its folders, i went to time machine backup and nothing showes up before the install. can i get them back?

Then you need to purchase a copy of Snow Leopard. You cannot install Leopard, Lion, or Mountain Lion without first erasing the hard drive if you don't have Snow Leopard installed. You cannot reinstall Snow Leopard without a Snow Leopard DVD.
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
If you need to purchase Snow Leopard you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
Snow Leopard from eBay
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions. The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download.
