  • How to recover Mountain Lion iMessages from Time Machine backup?

    Today, I sent messages to someone using iMessage on my iPod touch and it said "delivered" on the last one.
    But when I woke up my laptop and opened Messages, the latest messages were the ones I sent yesterday, not the ones I sent today.
    So I went in ~/Library/and deleted the Messages folder to try to reset the iMessage database so it would re-sync with Apple's servers but it didn't work.
    I have my Time Machine backups that have my intact Messages folder stored but when I put the original back in its place, the messages still aren't there and when I click on a conversation, the conversation goes down the list and is empty.
    I'd now like to simply recover my iMessage conversations (I don't care about what's in Jabber or whatever), does anyone know how I could do that?
    Thanks!

    I resetted my PRAM and now it works...

  • How to download mountain lion with my free code???

    I have my code but dont know where to redeem my code or put my code.
    help PLZ?????

    Restore your system from your Time Machine backup.
    Or if you do not have a full system backup make one using Time Machine. Then download the 10.6.8 combo updater and appy it to your system <http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399>.
    Or, you can purchase OS X 10.8 on your Macbook Pro, download, transfer the installer to iMac and install it. Just be sure and backup the installer to an external HDD BEFORE you install it on the iMac.
    In the future just remove the icon from the Dock and you won't have this problem. Also, make backups.

  • How long is the "OS X Mountain Lion Up-To-Date Program" response time?

    I submitted the information about my recently purchased laptop to the uptodate page http://www.apple.com/ca/osx/uptodate/ earlier in the day but haven't recieved any notifications (not even an email saying that the information has been recieved). I've heard that other people have gotten codes so I assume it shouldn't take this long. Should I just resubmit again?

    Servers are slammed.  Your email is the least of the problems.

  • I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion and found out it was not compatible with my HP printer (HP photosmart C5580) so I called Apple and asked how to get Mountain Lion off and Snow Leopard back on.  The Tech told me to

    I was using OS Snow Leopard and on 8/1/13 I downloaded Mountain Lion.  Then I found out it was not compatible with my HP Printer (HP Photosmart C5580 all-in-one) so I called Apple support and the tech told me to erase the hard drive instead of going in the time machine.  Well I did that and then it took about three hours three days a week for about three weeks on the phone with an apple tech to get all my stuff back on my computer.  I have had trouble with my printer (won't do the scan anymore and wasn't printing on my DVDs.  Also the computer keeps freezing up when it is in the sleep mode, etc.
    When I tried to list my problem on this forum it lists your OS at the bottom and mine had Mountain Lion listed as what I was using so apparently it didn't erase it.  Want to know how to get Mountain Lion off and put my Snow Leopard on so things start working right.

    Go to the  menu/About This Mac - what OS version shows there?
    Do a backup, preferably 2 separate ones on 2 separate drives.
    Revert to a Previous OS X
    Revert to Snow Leopard
    If you do revert, I'd use Setup Assistant to restore your data. This process takes a while, so do it when you won't need the computer for several hours, based on my experience.

  • How to update mountain lion

    i dont know how i update mountain lion. i have osx 10.7.5. i dont know how i get osx 10.8.3?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    OS X Mountain Lion is a paid version, so you can't get it from Software Update.
    First, make a backup of your data, just in case the upgrade fails. Then, check that your computer is compatible with OS X Mountain Lion > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If it's compatible, open the App Store and purchase OS X Mountain Lion.
    The OS X Mountain Lion installer will be downloaded. It takes 4 GB, so this may take hours. When it finishes, the Mountain Lion installer will show up, so follow the steps to upgrade to Mountain Lion

  • How to put mountain lion on a thumb drive?

    How to put mountain lion on a thumb drive?

    Make Your Own Mountain/Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Mountain/Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Mountain/
        Lion application. After Mountain/Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button.
        Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Mountain/Lion installer. Move
        the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You
        must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes
        installing.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
      a. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
      b. After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left
          side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
      c. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one.     
          Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the
          partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until
          the process has completed.
      d. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side
          list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
      e. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the
          button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
      f. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash
         drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Mountain/Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the content of the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
      a. Double-click on the InstallESD.dmg file to mount it on your Desktop.
      b. Open Disk Utility.
      c. Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
      d. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
      e. Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
      f. Drag the mounted disc icon from the Desktop into the Source entry field.
      g. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable installer that you can use without having to re-download Mountain/Lion.
    Note: The term Mountain/Lion used above means Lion or Mountain Lion.
    As an alternative to the above (you still have to do your own download of Lion/Mountain Lion) you can try using Lion DiskMaker 2.0 that automates the process of Steps 2 through 4.

  • I used th Mountain Lion up to date program to redeem my code yesterday (25th July) but I still haven't got any email or anything. Is anyone else having the same problem?

    I used th Mountain Lion up to date program to redeem my code yesterday (25th July) but I still haven't got any email or anything. Is anyone else having the same problem?

    Same here...plopped down >$2700 USD on a new Retina MBP a few weeks ago with the promise of a free upgrade to ML when it was released.  Now, I have no doubts that I'll get the upgrade but I'm not crazy about having to wait behind scads of others who are shelling out a mere $20 bucks.
    I was given the same 72 hour speech by Apple Customer Support.  With my Up-To-Date claim reference number in hand, it seems like they would/could provide an instant turn-around to those of us who are excited/eager enough to call in.
    Apple does a lot of things right but people...especially the clientele that gravitate toward Apple products...expect excellence across the board.  It's like a "nearly" perfect date....beautiful night...best table in the restaurant...delicious dinner with a fabulous bottle of wine...your date is smokin' hot in a little black dress.  On the way back to her place, she unbuckles her seatbelt and leans across with a hand towards your leg and then lets a gigantic, tear-demanding **** that makes you want to gag.  The next day somebody asks, "How was your date?"

  • Problem with OS X Mountain Lion Up-to-Date program

    I have redeemed the OS X Mountain Lion Up-to-Date program via Apple App Store. However, I am unable to download the program and my Mac still running on the previous version. Please advise.

    No idea why it's so slow, that link works here & clicking on the Mountain Lion link takes me to the "Upload a proof of purchase" page.
    Did you enter the data there?

  • How long does mountain lion take to download?

    On average how long does mountain lion take to download from the app store?

    Always keep an eye on 'More like this', the column to the right of your initial post.    You will often find answers and direct leads to your questions there.
    In fact it relates to your ISP and the download speeds you have.   I believe it is 4GB in size.

    how long does mountain lion take to download and where does it say how much it has left mine just says downloading ?

    It's totally dependent on your broadband speed.
    It took me about 45 minutes to download, but I have a reasonably fast connection.
    It will often say in the purchased pane of the Mac App Store how much longer it will take.
