How do I access Epson's print utility interface from Mountain Lion

How do I run a "print utility" on my Epson Stylus C120 and R1800 printers (older Epson models) with the new Mountain Lion operating system? Since I updated to Mountain Lion, I can no longer access functions like head cleaning/aligning or ink status.
Epson hasn't created updated "drivers" for these printer models and Apple's built-in dialog box for print set-up and other settings don't provide access to printer maintenance functions.
I can't use my printers until this problem is solved. HELP!!!

scraps,
I successfully accessed all the utility functions and print settings of my Epson printers through the new Mountain Lion interface AFTER I first wiped out all my old Epson drivers (listed under "print and scan" in system preferences). Once those old drivers are deleted, plug in your printers (with the power on) and check for a software update on your computer. If the new software doesn't appear, turn your printer on and off while you check again. You should be able to regain all the functions of you printer with the updated drivers. For more detailed step by step instructions on uninstalling and updating your drivers, you can contact Epson--I didn't keep the instructions they e-mailed me or I'd pass them on to you. This is a frustrating prob but it can be solved. I hope you are up and running quickly!

How can i access my lacie external drive with os mountain lion

I have just upgradet my macbook pro from snow leopard to mountain lion, and now i can't restore my backed up files from my Lacie external drive.
When i try to connect to it through time machine or migration assistant i get the message:
"the version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported"
I have tried to enable all UAMs but i still can't connect.
I have browsed after other similar situations, but i can't seem to find any though i'm hardly the only one with this problem.

If the backup was made using time machine, you should be able to access any files you need or want manually using the finder. It may not be pretty, but it should work. I don't know why the migration assistant would be unable to access it though.
If you can't access the contents of the backup with the finder, then I would say your problem is a bit more serious.

How do I remove parallels 6 and Windows 7 from mountain lion.

Hi guys I expect you all know that parallels six is no longer compatible with mountain lion. I do not want to upgrade to parallels seven but I do not now know how to uninstall parallels and the Windows 7 partition.
Anybody got any ideas?
Cheers.

The uninstaller is located on the DVD or in the .dmg file you obtained when you purchased it. Otherwise,
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind 4.9, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
AppZapper 2.0.1
AppDelete 3.2.6
Automaton 1.50
Hazel
AppCleaner 2.1.0
CleanApp
iTrash 1.8.2
Amnesia
Uninstaller 1.15.1
Spring Cleaning 11.0.1
Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

How do I downgrade my MacBook Pro Retina Display from Mountain Lion to Lion?

I have a brand new MacBook Pro Retina Display that came with OS X 10.8.1.
I´m an audio engineer so I work with Pro Tools, tons of plug-ins etc... Some of my software doesn't work with Mountain Lion just yet. Some of them haven't upgraded, and some of them I need to purchase a latest version, which is not cheap at all in the audio world. So I'd like to hang on to Lion for a while until I decide to upgrade everything to Mountain Lion.
I've seen other posts about this -> https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4148927?start=0&tstart=0
This one in particular managed to make the downgrade. However, he used to have OS X 10.7.4 in his retina display when he bought it. Which is something that doesn't happen in my case.
If you read the other post you can see that several methods have been tried.
Is it really safe to completely erase my hard drive and to a clean install of Lion? Will it work perfectly fine on my Retina Display?
I went to one Apple Store, and the guy asked around and told me they haven't done it before, so since they didn't know whether it was going to work they couldn't do it. He told me to do it myself and if something happened to my laptop, "just bring it in and we'll reinstall the stock OS X again."
Since the laptop is brand new I don't mind erasing everything, all my stuff is already backed up.
So help me please?

The short of it is if it came with 10.8.1 you can't install an OS less than that.

How do I access and use my Itunes library from a different/new computer?

How do I access and use my Itunes library from a different/new computer? My computer is no longer working, so I need to be able to access my library from my wife's computer.

Your library will only be where you put it. Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer to the new one.
You can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

How do I access my encrypted User Account files from my Back Up hard drive? Time Machine was used to create the back up disk; File Vault was used to encrypt the files.

Thanks. I will try going through TM. Since my Simpletech is on the way out, I'll be plugging in a new external hard drive (other than the back-up drive) and trying to restore the library to the new drive. Any advice or warning if this is NOT the right thing to do?
Meanwhile, that is a great tip to do an alternate back-up using a different means. It's been tough to figure out how to "preserve access" to digital images and files for posterity, knowing the hardware will always fail/obsolesce sooner or later, and that "clouds" are only as good as their consistent and reliable accessibility. Upping the odds with redundancy will help dull the edge of my "access anxiety", though logically, it can never relieve it. Will look into

Printing to a Epson Stylus Pro7800 on OS X Mountain Lion

I wonder if I should Upgrade my IMac, from snow leopard (10.6.8) to Mountain Lion.
My work depends on printing from Adobe CS6 PShop and Illustrator to a Epson stylus Pro 7800 printer.
Has any body experience or knows if this printer is supported on Mountain lion?
I can’t find clear information from Apple neither from Epson.

Here is Apple's list of supported printers from Lion: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3669
As far as I know, this is their latest list.
Note the list is dated July 26, 2012, so it almost certainly will apply to Mountain Lion as well.

You would need to have home sharing enabled on Apple TV and iTunes.

They would be accessed by going to the Computers icon on Apple TV. . Your computer would need to be on and running iTunes.

Print entire Keychain in Mountain Lion?

I'm trying to print my entire keychain from mountain lion. Here's what I've tried already.
- I started out at this post: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1343386
- Then I found out that the Keychain Scripting.app isn't available in ML.
- I downloaded Usable Keychain Scripting.app from here: http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/2035/usable-keychain-scripting-for-lion
- Now I'm getting an error when I try to run it: Syntax error: Expected class name but found constant (or something, my system is in dutch so it's a bit hard to translate). The error relates to the statement "Internet" on the line: "set KeyList to every Internet key of current keychain".
I'm not very fluent in applescript. Has anyone any ideas?
Regards,
Fabian
The script:
set osXKeychainScriptingPath to (path to scripting additions from system domain as Unicode text) & "Usable Keychain Scripting.app:"
set theSecuridPIN to {}
tell application "Usable Keychain Scripting" to launch
tell application "Keychain Access" to launch
using terms from application "Usable Keychain Scripting"
          tell application osXKeychainScriptingPath
                    set KeyList to every Internet key of current keychain
                    repeat with aKey in KeyList
                              set theSecuridPIN to theSecuridPIN & ((name of aKey) & tab & (account of aKey) & tab & (password of aKey) & return) as text
                    end repeat
          end tell
end using terms from
tell application "Usable Keychain Scripting" to quit
tell application "Keychain Access" to quit
tell application "Finder"
          open for access file (((path to desktop folder) as text) & "Passwords") with write permission
                    set theFile to result
                    write theSecuridPIN to theFile
          close access theFile
end tell

FWIW, this revised script works in SL through Mavericks, but requires the Usable Keychain Scripting.app vers 1.0b4 reside in /System/Library/ScriptingAdditons/.
set osXKeychainScriptingPath to ¬
(path to scripting additions from system domain as Unicode text) ¬
& "Usable Keychain Scripting.app:" -- one liner
set theSecuridPIN to {}
tell application "Usable Keychain Scripting" to launch
tell application "Keychain Access" to launch
using terms from application "Usable Keychain Scripting"
tell application osXKeychainScriptingPath
set KeyList to every internet password of current keychain
repeat with aKey in KeyList
set theSecuridPIN to theSecuridPIN & ((name of aKey) & tab & ¬
(account of aKey) & tab & (password of aKey) & return) as text
end repeat
end tell
end using terms from
tell application "Usable Keychain Scripting" to quit
tell application "Keychain Access" to quit
tell application "Finder"
open for access file (((path to desktop folder) as text) & "Passwords") with write permission
set theFile to result
write theSecuridPIN to theFile
close access theFile

How do I use my own photos for screensaver in Mountain Lion

How do I use my own photos for screensaver in Mountain Lion. I cannot see how to use my photos. It seems that the screensaver is set with factory settings. There appears to be no alternative.

Cannot Print after upgrading to Mountain Lion

I can not longer print since upgrading to Mountain Lion 10.8.2. Prior to the upgrade I was printing; now, even though my printer is on the list (HP Officejet 7410xi, All-in-one) as being compatible, I still get "Power PC applications are not longer supported". On HP's website there was no help since the ML Upgrade contained the necessary drivers to print with. Any help or suggestions would be highly appreciated. Oh, I am new at this...so, please...KIS (Keep It Simple). Thanks!

I have a very similar problem that this solution has not fixed.
My HP 882C was no longer supported when I upgraded to Mountain Lion. I worked around for awhile through Windows that I have running on the Virtual Machine. Then, that went south.
So I now have a HP Officejet 6700. I've unsuccessfully tried to install it as a wireless; it kept hanging trying to creat the print queue. Now, I've connected it via the UCB and still can't get it installed. I did what you've suggested here. After deleting the files and downloading and installing the software from Apple I rebooted the system. It recognized that there was a printer and began setting up the 'HP Officejet 6700...'. It began processing with the message "Finding software..." displayed. Then it stopped with the following message:
"Can't install the software for the HP Officejet 6700 because it is not currently available from the Software Updaye Service."
I've also downloaded the software from HP several times, not succeeding there either.
