How do I reinstall os x moutain lion after deleting necessary files?

When trying to get my Canoscan 9550F to work with OS X 10.8.x, I was able to add it to the system settings under printer, but still it didn't work. I decided to make sure the Canon driver and Apple driver weren't fighting, so I deleted some files. Now, even though I can see the scanner in the "about this Mac," I cannot add it anymore to the printer area. I should have dragged those files to the trash, where I could have restored or put back the files, instead of to the desktop.
My question, How do I reinstall OS 10.8.x when I installed it from the App Store to upgrade? I don't see it as files on my Mac to reinstall.
Thanks

Reboot to the Recovery partition and reinstall from there. Reboot, at the sound of the chime press cmd-r and hold it until the Recovery disk starts up.

  • How to refresh and redirect into same page after deleting a file

    Hi John,
    One more help I need. I implemented the brows and download file functionality in my application successfully. And I am interested to implement delete also like download. If user will click on download three options will come open, save, cancel in case of download. But like download I want to put delete link which will delete the corresponding file.
    I written the procedure in same fashion as download and compiled in my schema.
    The code is here:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE download_my_file_temp_delete (p_file IN NUMBER)
    AS
    BEGIN
    DELETE FROM file_subjects_temp
    WHERE ID = p_file;
    END download_my_file_temp_delete;
    And in
    Home>Application Builder>Application ID>my_page > Report Attributes>Column Attributes
    There I am entering
    Link text : Delete
    Target : URL
    URL : #OWNER#.download_my_file_temp_delete?p_file=#Delete#
    Where download_my_file_temp_delete is a procedure for deleting the file corresponding to ID .
    Here id alias is DELETE so I am passing #DELETE#.
    If I am click delete corresponding to any file its opening a blank page I seen URL is like
    http://abcd.com:portno/pls/workspace/owner.download_my_file_temp_delete?p_file=4031625747435433
    if I am clicking back and refreshing then getting file is deleted successfully.
    That means procedure is working but I want that after clicking on delete link corresponding to any file same page should appear with refresh then my problem will solved.
    Can u suggest me any approach.
    Thanks && Regards,
    Ravi

    [This is not John, hope that's ok!]
    This kind of thing is best done by rendering checkboxes next to each file in your report region;using apex_item.checkbox(1,file_id) and providing a Delete button that would fire a after-submit process that does
    for i in 1..htmldb_application.g_f01.count
    loop
    download_my_file_temp_delete(htmldb_application.g_f01(i));
    end loop;[And of course a same-page branch on the page]

  • How to do a clean install with lion after it is already installed?

    how to do a clean install with lion after it is already installed?

    Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
    If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • How do I copy the Mac OS Lion after upgrading?

    How do I copy the Mac OS Lion after upgrading. I upgraded to OS Lion and now I want to do clean install because my macbook became slower since i installed lion.
    Please, help! Thanks.

    You need to get on a Snow Leopard system, log into the App Store with your Apple ID, then download the Lion installer. The re-download is free. After the installer is downloaded it will start automatically. Now, quit the installer. You can now make a copy of the installer that you will find in the Applications folder.
    Now, you also may be able to get this to work: Open the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key while clicking on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. This is supposed to activate the Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. Clicking the Install button will then re-download the Lion installer.

    how to turn on usernoted in mountain lion after i accidently turned it off?

    Usernoted was continually crashing and eating up memory. I clicked on it in the activity monitor and it took me to a place where I could turn it off. Without thinking I did so. I think I turned it off in the console or the terminal. I don't remember exactly what was written. I just clicked  to allow it to be turned off. Since then I cannot upload anything to facebook directly from my imac or from safari when I use share. But iI still get facebook notifications in the notification center. I have restarted and even shut down and then restarted and also logged out and in and I still can't share.

  • How to keep your email on the server after deleting from the phone?

    how to keep your email on the server after deleting from the phone?

    If this is a POP mail account:
    Settings > Mail.... > Your account > Advanced > Delete from server > Never.
    However, this will risk re-downloading as new mail
    IMAC  accounts mirror what's on the phone in the server, so deleting from the inbox on the phone will either send it to the trans folder on the server or leave it in the inbox but marked as deleted (depending on the server)
    Settings > Mail.... > your account > Advanced > Deleted Mailbox > On My iPhone Trash

  • How to pack icons in multi page folders after delete

    there is a way to automatically pack icons together after delete some of them in a multi page folder?

    Make as many artboards as you have layers.
    select the art on a layer easiest way is to use the layers panel.
    Command C to copy
    refocus on the artboard with the same number as the layer or if the layers have names, name the artboards accordingly and select to match that way.
    then command shift V to place in place the art will be pasted in the same position on the artboard as it was on artboard one or relative to the original.
    when you have all the artboards with their content in place save it as a pdf. using the use artboard feature select all or a range
    and now you have a multipage pdf.
    yes I know this not what you want but in the future just remember this is how it works and be prepared to have an artboard for each layer.
    And it is not that much work to do this.

  • How can I reinstall JAVA on Mountain Lion?

    The last Java Update screwed up Java on Mountain Lion. Thanks a lot, Apple. This is where blinking/flashing images etc etc start, and it also affects the three-finger word-look-up gesture. I compared my mac running Facebook in Safari with one in an AppleStore and the one in the shop renders the Java stuff flawlessly -- no blinking or flashing graphics, and the three-finger tap gesture works perfectly. Both macs were running the same version of Java, OS X and Safari.
    If I turn off Javascript and Java (in Safari) I don't get the flashing images and three-finger-tap works.
    So my question is (after reading similar threads of the same topic): IS there any one-click solution to this -- can I reinstall Java, or do I have to re-install Mountain Lion... JUST to get Java working again??!?
    And per the above.. why ISN'T there a standalone Java re-installer for OS X? How difficult could it be??

    I just found the solution, thanks to the "MORE LIKE THIS" links:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1572
    That's where you can download the standalone installer!! I did it, ran it, and it works. Solved all the problems I've been having.
    Thing is.... why is it hidden???
