How to add birthday on Mountain Lion?

Can anyone tell me how to add birthday on Mountain Lion? in contacts there is no such field.

With Contacts open, go to Preferences - Template, and open the Add Field dropdown menu.  Select Birthday. 
If you also want to add Anniversary information, select Dates in the drop-down menu. It appears that a new date field is defined automatically as Anniversary - but if it isn't on your machine, it's easy enough to change.

    That has never been a feature of Mac OS X, but I believe there was some kind of third-party software that could add that capability.  i don't recall what its name is, but you must have had that installed, and it either isn't installed anymore (perhaps removed as incompatible?) or is not working properly in Mountain Lion.

    Fantastic!  Didn't work at first so restarted App store and tried again.  This time it asked 'ignore update'.  All gone!

  • I have a pre-2008 Mac PRO how do I upgrade to Mountain Lion?

    I have a pre-2008 Mac PRO how do I upgrade to Mountain Lion? On the Apple's site on upgrading (http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/), I see that "Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)" is required for the upgrade. What's up with that?
    Will upgrading of the GPU do the trick?
    I'm curretly on Snow Leopard, will I be limited to Lion?

  • How do I re-install Mountain Lion on a new hard drive (replacement)?

    I have an older iMac 24" (2007) that has been up-graded to Mountain lion.  I want to replace my hard drive with a bigger one (has 500Gb).  How can I re-install Mountain Lion on my new drive?  I have Time Machine on this machine.

    Install 10.6 and 10.8 onto the new drive exactly how you did it on the old drive, except that you won't need to pay to redownload 10.8. Alternatively, if you kept a copy of the 10.8 installer, you can just rerun it.

    How to go back to Mountain lion os x 10.8 again from mavericks.?

    You can reinstall your system from a backup (Time Machine or "clone") or erase it completely and reinstall Mountain Lion.

    If your Mac shipped with Mountain Lion already installed, you can reinstall it. Otherwise, you can only reinstall Mountain Lion if you purchased it from the App Store.
    You may be better off describing the problems you're experiencing, so that they can be fixed. The vast majority of Mavericks complaints are due to outdated or poorly written software or similarly incompatible system modifications, and some simple troubleshooting may reveal the cause.

  • How do I know if Mountain Lion has installed properly?

    How do I know if Mountain Lion has installed properly?

    I can only guess that the install process was interrupted, maybe after the files were extracted but before the install, maybe on the reboot?
    If it was dome ot would say version 10.8.  And you would have the reminder and notes apps as well, also an easy thing to check.

  • How to keep finder in mountain lion from opening at startup

    How to keep finder in mountain lion from opening at startup.?

    Now you got me thinking....
    One can set things up so Finder can be quit like any other application.  In Terminal:
    defaults write com.apple.finder QuitMenuItem 1
    Then relaunch the Finder.
    I guess it might be possible to make a an Applescript or Automator application which runs at start up and quits the Finder.

  • How do I download purchased Mountain Lion OSX on my second Mac laptop?

    How do I download purchased Mountain Lion OSX on my second Mac laptop?  The initial download was no problem on my MacBook Pro, but my MacBook already has Lion with only a little more than 2 GB of Memory left. This may be my compatibility problem.  Ideas?

    I think you'll need to find a way to delete or move files to an external drive to free up some space. Generally, you want at least 10% free space on the HD for best performance. In your case, you probably will not get ML to install. Assuming you are talking about 2 GB of hard drive and nor 2 GB of RAM.

  • How do I re-install mountain lion if my macbook air is in this state?

    I just now had the bright idea of restoring my mac and wiping it clean. I'm currently in the start-up process and I can't re-install mountain lion because I never bought it. I bought this macbook air from an aquaintence last year. How do I upgrade to mountain lion if my mac is like this?  Is this issue really as simple as upgrading?

    The software on the macbook was the most recent.  It had already been upgraded to mountain lion by the previous owner.
    Does the original owner or yourself have a Snow Leopard istall disc? I'm guessing no.
    Unfortunately it looks like my situation has worsened. I'll click re-install mountain lion then continue and a message saying "to download and restore os x, your computer's eligibility will be verified with apple." I'll click continue and another message will appear saying something like "could not install to drive please contact applecare."  I am no longer being asked to enter my apple id or password.  I fear this is a "you have tried x amount of times so you are now locked out" situation.  Thanks to both of you for responding so soon!
    That I'm not sure of. If it were me I'd still buy a copy of SL as it's cheap and partition the hard drive so I have two OS on the same disc, (make the SL partiton about 25GB). You can use one to trouble shoot the other sometimes. It also means you can boot from DVD which I like.

  • I've,just,bought,a,new,Mac,with,mavericks,,but,I,don't,like,mavericks,,how,may,I ,downgrade,to,Mountain,Lion,10.8.5?

    I've just bought a brand new iMac with OS X Mavericks but I dont like Mavericks and it also has problems with some apps I use, how may I downgrade to Mountain Lion 10.8.5?

    You can't.
    You cannot install or run an OS X version lower than what is, originally, installed on your Mac.
    Your only option maybe to purchase a download code for OS X Mountain Lion here,
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6377Z/A/os-x-mountain-lion
    Purchase a high quality USB 3.0 or Thunderbolt hard drive, formatted as an OS X exetnded (journaled) drive with a GUID partition scheme and install OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion to the external drive and boot and run your new iMac from this external drive.
    This is the only optioh to run an older OS X version on a new Mac.
    I have a 2009 iMac that the lowest OS X version I can run from the iMac's internal hard drive is OS X 10.6.1.
    I have an external drive with OS X 10.5.8 and can get my iMac to boot and run this older OS X version from the ex eternal hard drive.
    Here is a good source for quality external hard drives.
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Lacie/9000353/
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Lacie/9000303/
    Your only other option is to return your new iMac within 14 days for a full refund and look for older iMac, either new or used that came with OS X Mountain Lion as its original, preinstalled OS X version.
    Good Luck!

    What, specifically, is your Mac model?
    MacBook Pro, but need the year it was released, processor speed, etc. This will determine if it *can* be upgraded further.
    Best,

    I have a macbook pro with OSX 10.5.8.  How do I upgrade to Mountain Lion when it is available?  I need to upgrade to run quickbooks and other apps

    First, you need Snow Leopard (10.6): http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A. Then you use Software Update to update it to 10.6.8. When Mountain Lion (10.8) comes out, find it in the Mac App Store.
