Can't open Logic Pro after having installed Mountain Lion
After having installed Mountain Lion I can't find Logic Pro (the latest version) back in my programs. I do still find all of my sessions. Trying to open a session a "Basic Content Download" starts. Just before the end of the download the computer asks for my password. After I've typed it and pressed enter the download stops.
This means I can't open any of my sessions.
What should I do?
Thanks for any advice.If you used the Mountain Lion installer it will have "migrated" your iWork software to the new system.
Unfortunately that doesn't always work properly. I had to reinstall mine from the original DVD.
If you can't find your DVD then you will have to purchase the iWork software individually from the Mac Store.
Just make sure to completely uninstall your existing iWork from your System first:

Having installed an upgrade for Photoshop Elements 13, I cannot open the application. I get an error message saying "Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X".
I have since uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but get the same error message.Which version of OS X do you have? It's not clear from your post whether "installed an upgrade" means you just installed PSE 13 as an upgrade or you installed an update to PSE 13, like ACR 9 or 13.1. Please clarify.

Numbers does not open with the main user after installing mountain lion. It works flawlessly when I use the second account on my mac. What got corrupted in the admin-account, something in the user-library? How can I fix it? I´m kinda desperate... (the same happens with the other iWork-Apps!)
Looking forward to hearing from somebody with a littlemore expertise than me, Chrisyou can remove preferences files by navigating to the Preferences folder for your user as follows:
0) Quit ALL iWork apps (Keynote, Pages and Numbers)
1) from the Finder select the menu item "Go > Go To Folder…". This will bring up a dialog:
2) enter the path "~/Library/Preferences" (no double quotes)
3) find the files:
com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist
com.apple.iWork.Numbers.plist
com.apple.iWork.Pages.plist
and move these to the trash. I would NOT empty until later.
4) restart Numbers -
Is it possible to mirror the display on the Macbook pro which is two years old to my iMac which is four years old? Macbook pro is running OS X Lion 10.7.5 and the iMac is running OS X 10.6.8 (10K549). Neither of them have Thunderbolt ports.
OK, well I would go with what Apple says in writing but if you want to take a trip to visit the Genius Bar that won't hurt.
Good luck, I'm 99% certain you will find I was correct but please let us know.

While trying to instal Mountain Lion OS on my macbook pro, I got the error message that my HD was damaged and it reverted to my Lion OS. Why does this happen? I bought the OS online through the app store.
The Mountain Lion installer looks at your internal drive to make certain that it's error-free before continuing installation. You should have an application named "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" in your Applications folder now so you shouldn't have to download it again. Do this...
Boot to your Lion recovery partition by holding down both the Command and the R keys while booting. Open Disk Utility from the Recovery partition and select your hard drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it) and click on Verify Disk. If you come up with any errors, click on Repair Disk. At the end of the cycle you will get a message that the disk was successfully repaired or a message that the hard drive could not be repaired.
If you're able to repair the disk, just reboot as normal and open the "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" and the installation will proceed. If Disk Utility was unable to repair the disk, you need to get to your local Apple Store as soon as possible so that they can see if the disk is salvageable or beyond repair.
Good luck,

Since I installed OSX Lion on my MacBook Pro, sometimes after login, the colored wheel keeps turning and I can't do anything. When I click on some icon or in the menu, no happens.
After a long time (more than 1 hour), I decide to switch off my Mac holding the button down and when I boot and log in again, it works normally.
Remark: When I logoff, I do not ask to keep my open programs for the next session.
I have a MacBook Pro 2010 with 4GB Ram.wrong reply

Ever since upgrading to lion my wifi has been dropping out constantly is apple going to fix this?
Ever since upgrading to lion my wifi has been dropping out constantly is apple going to fix this?
There are two possibilities, 1)it is a software problem which will be fixed.
2)It is a hardware problem, and youll have to take it to an iStore.
BUT there is something you should know.
If your under apple care, its free.
If you are not under apple care, itll cost you something to find out where the problem is (i dont live in the US so I dont know) and then extra cost for the reapair itself. -
My Mac air keeps on loosing wifi and when I want to switch it on it says "wifi hardware not installed" After about 5 minutes the wifi is back on, but only for about 10 minutes before loosing signal again. This is really frustrating.
I am also having the same problem.. Its too much annoying and its unfortunate nobody at apple support has anyclue of what is happening?
... This is happening almost most of the time keeping my phone down most of the times. -
Web-Outlook appointments which are one year before the current date are removed
Hi,
my Web-Outlook works fine with my iPHONE4s but the appointments which are one year befoer the current date are removed.
Is there an option to keep all appointments?
regards
AndreasFor the OST problem, delete the OST file and let Outlook create a new one. But your problem may be that Outlook connects to Exchange 2013 using Outlook Anywhere only--MAPI RPC is gone--and for that you need a valid certificate. So the self-signed
certificate is likely your main problem.
For a self-signed certificate to work, you must add it to every client as a trusted certificate. That is hard to do with mobile devices, which is why it's recommended to obtain a certificate from a trusted public certificate authority. You'd
probably find Go Daddy to be reasonably priced, and there are others.

I have an iMac 27" which is 4 years old and probably overdue for a clean-up. Is there any good reliable software out there that would help?
Has anyone had any experience of 'Mackeeper'?Check how many applications are starting when you log in, I found that if there was a lot of activity at login Finder did not display the icons on the desktop correctly, again like you it did not occur at every login, just occasionally.
For Safari have you tried resetting Safari, if that does not help you could disable plugins and extensions one at a time. You may find one of those is causing the problem. -

Should I download mountain lion ? I have a 2 year old mac book prok
Should I download mountain lion ? I have a 2 year old mac book pro
This isn't really a case where we can tell you what to do. You have to tell us more about your computer use and needs and we can make suggestions.
Do you need it?
2 years old means you're probably running OS 10.6-something. Do you have any really old software you use? You may have to update some of that too. sometimes people spend a few dollars on Mountain Lion and then hundreds on associated requirements such as hardware upgrades, or a lot of software that needs newer versions.
Are you planning on buying a new computer in the next year or two? -
Help - I just installed Mountain Lion and now my MacBook Pro crashes all the time
Hi everyone. I've recently installed Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro and now it randomly crashes. I tried finding the pattern (maybe when I open a specific app, or go through a series of steps) but nothing, it just happens, and it feels random.

Thanks!Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:

Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. They should be more than willing to install a new logic board at no cost. I have no idea why this faulty GPU is making the headline here on the MacBook Pro forum so often now - could it be because Mountain Lion is just bringing the issue to a head more readily? I don't know - I only know that we're seeing more and more of these kernel panics of late.
Good luck,

Can I upgrade to Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard on 6-year old iMac?
I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on an Intel Core 2 Duo iMac which I bought in January 2007. It has 1GB memory and 2.16 GHz processing speed. Can I upgrade to Mountain Lion - or perhaps more importantly, should I? Given the age of my iMac, would Mountain Lion be too much in terms of processing speed, etc?
Probably not to Mountain Lion but to Lion, yes. However, you will need to increase memory to 2 or 3 GBs depending on what your specific model supports.
But if you wish to run Mountain Lion you need a newer model.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
Are my applications compatible?
