Have you updated to Mountain Lion 10.8.4 with no problems?

As usual, whenever OS X updates occur, a number of people reported problems ranging from the minor to the catastrophic with the latest.
Usually these problems are due to user error but they still cause me a little apprehension, so could any prolific and proficient FCP X users who have updated successfully, please confirm the fact.

Thanks for the responses.
As I had received no replies in 24 hours I assumed my question had been lost without trace, so yesterday I bit the bullet and updated.
I've not done anything intensive but have not noticed any adverse difference yet.
Regarding Studio Engineer's comments on emails, from first installing ML I have experienced peculiar behaviour with Mail which I use in the classic layout.
I get notifications of huge numbers of incoming emails (which fortunately never materialise), frequently deleted items pop back into the window and more often than not, at the end of the day, I have to Force Quit Mail.
It's still the same with this latest update, but I suppose that is preferable to ruining FCP X.

Option in MAIL to "Add to iPhoto" isn't working after updating to Mountain Lion. Anybody else with this problem or sulution?

Option in MAIL to "Add to iPhoto" isn't working after updating to Mountain Lion. Anybody else with this problem or sulution?

A brief search. Or even glancing at the "more like this" list to the right will show that this is a known problem and there is no current solution. Workaround includ saving to the desktop and importing from there or opening in Quick Look and adding to iPhoto from there

I have read about this problem but i'm new at mac, and seem to be kind of complicated repair it. I'm wonder if anyone knows if apple is doing something to fix this? macbooks arent chip and i shouldnt go thru all the the time consuming to get it works how sopose to.
if some one knows anything or if there is anybody who can guide me step by step on how to fix this, i really will apreciate that.
thank you.

As cbs20 says...
Boot up holding command-r keys into your Recovery Volume.
The screen should give you these choices...
Restore from TM backup
Reinstall Mac OS X
Get help online
Disk Utility
First run Disk Utility Repair Disk, if you get errors run until no errors reported or reports "the disk cannot be fixed". Then, choose Reinstall OS X. This will be an install "in place" and shouldn't effect any of your own data or settings.

How do you update to mountain lion free if you buy a mac today?

I don't know if it was announced today or not

On the Apple Website this appears:
Seems quite clear to me, the upgrade to Mountain Lion on a Mac bought on or after today will be free.

I cannot set-up subfolders in my inbox using Mountain Lion. I have several from before the upgrade to Mountain Lion that I created with no problem.

I cannot set-up any subfolder in my inbox. I am using Mountain Lion. I had no problem doing this in the past. It seems that I'm limited to the high level mailboxes - gmail, On My Mac, iCloud - are my only options in clicking through the create mailbox set-up steps. I can create subfolder in any root level mailbo or subdirectories. I've tried creating a subfolder under the Gmail mailbox and dragging it to the inbox but that doesn't work either. Any ideas would be very much appreciated.

Connect the new hybrid drive to your MBP. Start up your MBP holding the OPTION key, the two HDD icons will appear. Select the 'restore' icon on the right. When you get to the menu where you have 4 options, select Disk Utility. Format the drive and then you can use the option of restoring it from Time Machine.
Ciao.

Have you updated to 4.1? Has it resolved the problems of slowness?

Ive just updated it and to be honest cant see any differene in performance from when I restored as fresh on 4.0.2.
What is it like for you?

I've upgraded 30min ago.
Unfortunately my main problem with the Calendar startup bug remains!
At startup the calendar is unresponsive for 2-3sec, then all appointments dissapears for another 3-4sec before the calendar is up and running as it should.
Android here I come!!!

I updated to Mountain Lion and now I have problems

After I updated to Mountain Lion my iphoto, imovie, numbers, pages,keynote will not open it has an error that says, You can’t open the application “Pages.app” because it is not supported on this type of Mac.What do I do now?

I've read that if you update to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 this behavior has been "fixed."
Most users blame the implementation of Save As… as not working as it has in the past. I believe the issue is that autosave will save all changes but you can revert the original document to a previous version. Click the small triangle next to the document name in the title bar & choose browse all versions.

I just bought a new Mac, and i cant seem to update to Mountain Lion, any idea's as to why?

i just bought a new Mac, and i cant seem to update to Mountain Lion, any idea's as to why? also i can not seem to download pages from the app store, any idea's on why, please help!!

You need to describe more clearly what you are trying to do and how it is failing.
Was your mac new, or just new to you? What OS did it come with? Lion? Snow Leopard?
Have you already bought Mountain Lion? If so, are you using the same Apple ID that you used for your purchase?
What are you seeing in the App Store? Come to think of it, are in the MAC App Store? (not to be confused with the iTunes App Store!).
If you give answers to these questions we may be able to help!

Has anyone else noticed since the last update to mountain lion, if you pit it to sleep, when it wakes there is no sound. you have to reboot to get sound?

I have found, in the past few days, since the latest update to Mountain Lion, if the Mac is put to sleep, there is no sound available when it wakes. I have to re-start to get sound back. Is this general??

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
{ sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; echo; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; echo; sudo crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -ef
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
{ launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'; echo; crontab -l 2> /dev/null; } | open -ef
Step 4
ls -A /e*/{cr,la,mach}* {,/}Lib*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la* 2> /dev/null | open -ef
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of login items' | open -ef
Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal.

Hi! I just updated to Mountain Lion to make full use of iCloud, and I am attempting to turn on Photo Stream. I currently have iPhoto '09, version 8.12, and think I need to update to iPhoto'11, but I'm reluctant to do this due to very bad reviews.

Hi! I just updated to Mountain Lion to make full use of iCloud and am attempting to turn on PhotoStream. I have iPhoto '09, version 8.12, so I think I need to upgrade to iPhoto '11. I'm reluctant to do this as I've read a ton of bad reviews written by people who have purchased the new version. Any suggestions? Is it worth it?

Obviously only you can decide what is "worth it". Millions and millions and millions of people use and like iPhoto '11. Some don't. If you want PhotoStream then you must upgrade to the minimum software levels

I just downloaded the newest update for mountain lion. After downloading and restarting for installation, I got a message stating that the update cannot be installed due to an error. Yet when I check I have version 10..8.3 and safari version

I just downloaded the newest update for mountain lion. After downloading any restarting for installation, I got a message stating that the update cannot be installed due to an error. Yet when I check I have version 10..8.3 and safari version 6.0.3, which the update was for. Does this mean that the update is iinstalled and the message was incorrect?

Good timing! Oh well, at least you shouldn't have to update again for a while. It will be nice kickstarting your Mac with the very latest System Update knowing any hiccups from 10.8.2 would have been ironed out if they were going to affect your workflow at all.
Cheers and Happy Computing

I have updated to Mountain Lion but both Mountain Lion and Lion are showing up in my App store as needing to be downloaded? Help

I have updated my mac pro to Mountain Lion, but when I go into my updates in App store it shows both Lion and Mountain lion needing to be updated. They are not coming with a cancel option and when I download Mountain Lion it tries to download for a very long time, but then shows and error and shows up again as needing to be downloaded. Lion is now on pause to keep from downloading it. What do I do to get rid of both of them.

Hi again, when you clicked on Mountain Lion and Lion in the App Store you are telling the laptop to reinstall them both.
You may have allowed simutanious downloads checked at the bottom of the window, I don't know, but I expect Mountain Lion is downloading, so Lion is waiting for it to finish, so if you have Mountain Lion installed cancel both download's.
Cancell both downloads anyway.
Go to the apple logo , top left, click on it, then click on about this mac, a window will open telling you what's installed, Mountain Lion is OX 10 version 10.8.2 click on more info, to find out more, Lion will be OX10 version 10.7.4.
