How to install (not update) my HP LaserJet 1020/1022 on Mountain Lion

Hi guys,
I'm trying to install my HP LaserJet 1020 on my new Mountain Lion anyway I'm not able to find any driver! The specific HP web page says that I can "update" this printer using the Apple Software Update anyway I don't see any update or installation on it.
With previous version of the OS was possible to download a .dmg for HP LaserJet 1022. I tried to download and install the driver for Snow Leopard anyway I don't see any entry when I try to select a driver for my printer during the installation phase (the list contain only two very generic drivers for HP printers).
Thanks for your time!

Hi,
The Laserjet 1020 officialy not compatible with Mountain Lion, however you may try using the following workaround:
Install the HP Printer Drivers 2.9 package by clicking the Download button below:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL907
After completing the installation, go to System PReferences > Print & Fax.
Click the Plus sign and select the printer.
If you still see a Generic driver selected, click the Use drop-down and then click Select Printer Software.
From the list, select the HP Laserjet 1022 and add the printer.
Now try printing using the configured print queue.

How to install (not update) the HP LaserJet 1020/1022 on Mountain Lion? The Apple Software Update doesn't show nothing.

Does someone know a way to download a driver or find a solution for this problem? With previous version of the OS It was possible to download a .dmg for the HP LaserJet 1022 (the driver was the same for both versions, 1020 and 1022). I tried to download and install the driver for Snow Leopard anyway I don't see any entry when I try to select a driver for my printer during the installation phase (the list contain only two very generic drivers for HP printers).

Updates are only available if the software has already been installed.
HP is responsible for updating their drivers for Mountain Lion compatibility. Not Apple.
Doubtful the driver for Snow Leopard will run on Mountain Lion.

GarageBand will not update via MacApp Store (running OS X Mountain Lion)

Hi I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro 2012 (Ivy Bridge) and I was using GarageBand and was trying to get extra instruments and GarageBand said I could either
a) "Download now" or b) "download later"
and the 1st option I click it claims that it is currently downloading but I waited and waited and even restarted GarageBand an hour later and none of the instruments showed up. And the I also tried "download later" and that option stated that I would get a notification in the MacApp Store to update when I opened it and it nothing showed up. What must I do to update, I really like GarageBand and I'm using it to make a little bit of music but I'd like to know what I must do in order to get the other instruments on there.

However, when I delete the GB app and the folder in the application support and try to install GB 6.0.5 Update it displays a message "Garageband 6.0 or later is required to install this update".
If your GarageBand came preinstalled or you bought it from the AppStore, you have to sign into the AppSTore with the Apple ID you used to accept or purchase GarageBand, Then download and reinstall from the "Purchased" tab of the AppStore. You cannot use the updater from the support page.

How to install Utility updates?

I received a Toshiba Website Alert e-mail from
[email protected] <[email protected]>.
I downloaded the file "FTP-URL utils-xp-18142.zip".
I did not find any instructions on how to install this update.
Can someone please let me know what the installation procedure is.
Regards
Hans Hamers

Hi
Dont be mad at me but why you install something on your notebook if you dont know this application or driver.
Sorry but this is very irresponsible
Im not sure but the file seems to be a Toshiba utilities for win XP.
Check the Toshiba driver page because every utility or driver should be placed on the Toshiba driver page

Is your MacBook compatible with Mavericks? Open  > About this Mac > More Info, and you will see the MacBook model you have got. Then, check in this site if it's supported > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs
If your Mac is not compatible, OS X 10.7.5 is the most recent version for your Mac. Also, copy the whole message you see when you open the Mavericks installer

Tap to click not working properly in Mountain Lion. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

The tap to click does not work with mountain lion as it did before the mountain lion install. I purchased a brand new imac in August of 2011 and got a wireless keyboard and selected the wireless trackpad instead of a mouse. The trackpad worked wonderful pre upgrade with tap to click. Now after the install of the newest beast, I have to actually press the trackpad rather than a slight tap. I have carpel tunnel and this is causing great stress upon my hand. How do I get apple to fix this major issue with mountain lion?

Perhaps, I was not clear enough.
I have an imac purchased in Aug. 2011 which came with Lion 10.6 (two uprades before mountain lion)
Recently, I just purchased a macbook pro retina with Mountain Lion
On my imac, my settings allowed me to "tap to click" everything EXCEPT the initial log in at the star up of my imac, again running Lion 10.6
On my macbook pro retina which has Mountain Lion, I set up the "tap to click" option, but notice that a "hard" click was neccessary when trying to click things. I thought this was a macbook thing (my first one) so I went and upgraded my imac to Mountain LIon, BIG MISTAKE! Now both my imac AND my macbook only have limited "tap to click" options. Before mountain lion I could "tap" to highlight and select text, tap and drag, and many other thiings that Mountain Lion has disabled.
I am truly surprised that no one has noticed this MAJOR issue.
Is there a way to uninstall this update, similar to how on a PC you can go back to a restore point.
On another note even the way PREVIEW has changed is less user friendly, there used to be icons on the bottom right corner of the screen, now I have to double tap and select the option I would like to switch between contacts and thumbnails. This is really annoying and is causing me time when reviewing files.
Just in case anyone was wondering, I did go to system preferences -> trackpad -> select tap to click
In fact almost all of the trackpad functions have been selected.

Are you using the App Store to obtain Mavericks? Is your ISP reliable? Can you visit a friend with reliable Internet with adequate broadband (25mb/sec)?

Just installing a few updates from the Mac App Store for mountain lion on my 2010 MacBook Pro, during this it made a noise and then the screen and keyboard went off, like it is off. What happened, is it off...or should I just wait it out?

What kind of noise?
The only things I can think of that make noise are fans and disks. Fans usually will not cause the computer to shutdown as you describe. My guess is your disk drive died. I hope you made a backup prior to start the ungrade.

I have a MacBook Pro bought in dec 2009. Currently has mountain lion osx installed. Worked like a dream until today. Randomly froze, so I restarted it. To find I got a grey screen. It wouldn't start. Also note my DVD drive doesn't work, but mountain lion

I have a MacBook Pro bought in dec 2009. Currently has mountain lion osx installed. Worked like a dream until today. Randomly froze, so I restarted it. To find I got a grey screen. It wouldn't start. Also note my DVD drive doesn't work, but mountain lion was installed via App Store anyway.
So here's what I done so far:
tried resetting PRAM - No success
Done disk utility. Disk verified with no errors. I even re formatted disk. - no success starting.
Tried re installing mountain lion via download . It froze halfway installing -no success.
Tried backing up a time machine backup from my USB hard drive. It froze at 1% - no success
Tried booting from safe mode - no success
Tried the command line boot - no success.
Please someone help!

Sounds like the hard dre has left the building, Died, in the Sh*tter, Gone to the hard drive resting place in the sky.
Buy a new drive connect it to the system with a SATA to USB adapter and see if you can install Mt Lion on that drive connected externally. If you can then the drive inside your system has failed.
Oh Wait!!!! You have the 2009 model. They are known for bad drive to logic board cables. So it may not be the drive itself but the cable going from the drive to the logic board. Do the same as above then if the system runs OK with the new drive connected externally install it in the system and see if it boots. If it does you are good to go. If it doesn't then it is more then likely the cable that hs failed.
I would suggest you also SAVE a copy of that download of Mt Lion and create a USB install drive from it using Lion Disk Maker, once you get your system up and running.

How do I move from os x 10.5.8 to Mountain Lion?

How do I upgrade from OS X 10.5.8 to Mountain Lion?

You have enough memory, however it can be bumbed up to 8GB
(2-4GB modules) 2 - 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
Install/upgrade RAM or storage drive in Mac's
You have a Intel Core 2 Duo and a old NVIDIA GeForce 9400M, so 10.8 is going to run slow.
10.6.8 max would be best for that machine as it's 4 years old, in it's near end of life stage.
If you backup your files off the machine to a Storage Drive, then erase and install 10.6 fresh from the disk, the machine will run very fast, because 10.6 has updated video drivers.
Most commonly used backup methods
How to erase and install Snow Leopard 10.6
You can then choose to go to 10.8 from there, but it's not going to be as fast as 10.6 is.
If you upgrade 10.6 over 10.5, then go to 10.8, your machine is going to crawl really bad, so somewhere you have to do a fresh install to get your performance.
You will have to call Apple via phone and order the 10.6.3 white retail disks, they only take phone orders for that disk now.

I bought a mac mini with Lion pre-installed. If I upgrade my mac mini to Mountain Lion, am I free to install Lion on my older macbook using the mini license?

I currently have two macs. A 2008 macbook which is running Snow Leopard, can run Lion, and cannot run Mountain Lion. I also have a mac mini which came with Lion pre-installed. I plan on upgrading my mini to Mountain Lion when it's available. After I upgrade, it seems like I should be able to install Lion on my macbook using the license that came with my mini.
I have found many articles about making a DVD or bootable USB drive to recover, or install Lion onto other macs. So, I am not tied to the mac app store. And I am not worried about how to install Lion onto the macbook.
I have also read a few discussions about upgrading using pre-installed Lion license. From what I've read, if someone buys Lion through the app store, they can install it on all of their macs. But, if they have a machine the came with Lion pre-installed they can only use Lion on one machine. However it is unclear if that license can be transferred to another machine.
Another common answer that I have seen is, "Don't be cheap! Just buy Lion throught the app store." This is not about money, I'm interested in the technical challange, and the leagal question.
Does anyone have experience with this, or opinions?

If your machine came with Lion preinstalled, you cannot use it on another machine. It is tied to the machine it came with. You are allowed to make a one time transfer of the OS when you sell the machine as long as it remains with that machine.
If you purchase Lion from the app store, you are free to install it on as many Macs as you own - however, if/when you sell one of those Macs, you are required to uninstall Lion as the license is not transferable and you need to reinstall the original OS.
You can read the SLA for yourself - the link to the downloads to all licenses is here:

Can't update MS Office 2008 to SP1 on Mountain Lion.

Trying to update MS Office 2008 to SP1 on Mountain Lion. When I get to the Office 2008 SP1 installer "destination select". My hard disk is greyed out and can't be chosen; message "Office 2008 SP1 Update (12.1.0) can't be installed on this disk. A version of the software required to install this update was not found on this volume.
This was a fresh install of MS Office 2008 standard just a few days ago. The Office apps work fine but I always like to stay up to date.
Any ideas?

How can I manage an older airport express base station with Mountain Lion?

This version of AirPort Utility doesn't support this base station. Use AirPort Utility 5.6 to configure or manage this base station. AirPort Utility 5.6 is available at AirPort Service and Support."
I tried to install AirPort Utility 5.6 on my Mac OSX 10.8 Mac Book and it will not allow me to. How do I manage my "older" airport?

The 5.6 version can be installed but it does take an alternative route to do so. For example, you can use a utility like Pacifist to first extract the utility, and then, move it to the Utilities folder. Once "installed" by this method, it runs just fine on Mountain Lion.
