If I upgrade to mountain lion X, will I be able to mirror HBO to go on my mac air?

Mirroring has some system requirements more restrictive than the requirements for Mountain Lion. See the following footnote from the Mountain Lion features page:
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer).
Edit: you can mirror to your TV via wire without upgrading, if your machine does not support AirPlay Mirroring.

I a running 10.6. on a 2.1 ghz intel core 2 duo. Can i upgrade to mountain lion or will it slow down

Read the following technical specification
This will tell you what facilities your computer needs to be upgraded to Mountain Lion.
Pay particular attention to the amount of RAM. Apple says you need 2GB, most people here would recommend 4GB.
When you are satisfied you are equipped, you will need to use App store to buy the download ... and away you go.

HT1338 after upgrading to Mountain Lion the HP printer drivers for my C4680 are not found on the Mac store (per my Mac Book)

My computer cannot install a printer after I upgraded to Mountain Lion. I have downloaded the HP printer drivers from the Mac Store. I click on add printer on Print and scan, the printer is connected via USB. I get a message that the drivers on not on Mac Store and cannot be installed.

True, not part of the list.
An older printer? You can only try contacting HP. Note that Apple is only the "distributor" of these drivers; HP as the vendor develops them. Or not...

Why is Skype freezing everytime I try to open it after upgrading to Mountain Lion? Will it help if I delete and download it again? Are others having the same/similar problem?

Skype was working fine with the OS X Lion but ever since I upgraded, it has constantly been freezing. I've decided to drag it to trash and download the .dmg file from the Skype website once again. Are others facing the same problem?
Also, what are the associated files I should delete from the Library (Preferences, Caches etc) to remove Skype completely?

Well, this problem is fixed. I deleted all the files associated with Skype from the Library. Reinstalled it and the main thing, unlinked Skype from Facebook. Now it works fine!

How many macs can i upgrade to mountain lion if i used the free upgrade program

I recently bought a macbook air and received the free upgrade to mountain lion. Will i be able to just simply go to my app store account on another macbook (macbook pro snow leopard) and upgrade that to mountain lion as well?

sorry to drag this on, your answers were great i kinda forgot to clicked the "this solved my question" thing.. but is there a limit on the number of computers i can download it for free to?
Not to muddy the waters but according to the license agreement here: http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/docs/OSX108.pdf, Apple distinguishes between a "Preinstalled and Single-Copy Apple Software License" and a "Mac App Store License." The Preinstalled license limits use of the installer to one copy on one Apple-branded computer. The Mac App Store License allows the installation of "one (1) copy of the Apple Software directly on each Apple-branded computer running OS X Lion or OS X Snow Leopard (“Mac Computer”) that you own or control." Since in either case, the free upgrade is going to be coming from the Mac App Store it would seem that the Mac App Store License applies. But since the intent of the free upgrade is to serve as an inducement to buy a computer with a soon to be replaced OS by offering a free upgrade of the OS preinstalled on the purchased computer, perhaps it is covered by the Preinstalled wording. The Terms and Conditions of the upgrade program are unclear on that but maybe it becomes a matter of how the content code that's issued works. If the content code can be used more than once with your Mac App Store account or if the Mountain Lion installer appears as available for installation when you log into your Mac App Store account on a Mac different from the one that qualified you for the upgrade, then it would seem that the Mac App Store License is what applies here. Of course I'm no lawyer; if I was, I'm sure it would be even more complicated.

Google Talk not working with Messages after upgrade to Mountain Lion

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I'm no longer able to use Google Talk with the new Messages App. It worked fine on iChat, but now I cannot enable the account. When I try to check the enable box, it immediately unchecks itself and nothing happens. Any suggestions?

MacBook Pro Retina Audio issue after upgrade to Mountain Lion

Got my new MacBook Pro with Retina display just over a week ago now and was working brilliantly up until last night.
I upgraded to Mountain Lion via the App store as I already bought it for my other macs and didnt wish to wait to redeem my free copy.
Ever since the update the audio develops a stutter on any audio file no matter what format, program used or at any volume.
I am hoping this is just a software isssue and can be easily rectified. I have restarted it, tried a different user and pretty much anything else I could think of before posting this.
Any help would be greatly recieved.
Thanks
Luke

Using gfxCardStatus to force discrete graphics stops the audio stutter on my machine. I already returned one retina mbp for three dead pixels... Strange that graphics switching has something to do with the audio, especially since it was stuttering every 15 seconds or so, not when the nvidia kicked in...

I want to upgrade to Mountain Lion on my 2gb MacBook Air. Will it operate ok?

I have a MacBook Air purchased in May 2009 and have Lion on it. It seems to have become a bit slow and clunky! I now want to upgrade to Mountain Lion. Will the 2GB memory cope with it or not. Am I able to put additional memory on my Air?

The MBA's RAM isn't upgradable and while the SSD can be upgraded with third party drives, it voids the warranty. Your computer should run Lion acceptably fast but Mt Lion is a bit of a stretch for a 2GB computer, even with an SSD. Plus, if your computer has something dragging it down with Lion, it isn't likely to get any better with the upgrade to Mt Lion.
If you want to start tracking down the cause of your slowdown start looking at your hard drive free space (you should have 10-15% empty) and use Activity Monitor to check for rogue processes.

Can't open Kindle since upgrade to Mountain Lion

I have a 2 yr old MacBook Pro, and since I upgraded to Mountain Lion, I have not been able to open my Kindle for Mac. I go to applications and click on Kindle, and it just blinks and does nothing. What do I do?

Problems with Mail (on O2) since upgrade to Mountain Lion

After having spent a frustrating few days trying to get this sorted, I thought I should make folk aware of the above problem. Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I have not been able to send email using smtp.o2.co.uk. The O2 call centre notes that a number of folk have been having this problem.
Some have suggested setting Custom Port to 25 but this hasn't worked for me.
Apparently O2 are going to get back to me within 5 days with an answer. I'm not holding my breath but am pleased to say I can still use my iPhone to send email.
Can't help but wonder if this has anything to do with the fact that I signed up for an iCloud (***@me.com) account at the same time.
Any thoughts?

I got a fix. it works for me. while i'm on ML. safari and mail doesn't work properly. mail can't send emails with attachment and safari unble to open certain webpages.
i've log into my Internet modem, enable router mode from bridge mode. it works fine now. no promlem with sending emails or surfing the web. hope it'll helpful for u guys.

HT1444 I am using Mac os x 10.5.8 does this version allow for an upgrade to mountain Lion

I am currently using mac os x 10.5.8 Does this version allow for an upgrade to Mountain Lion?

Snow Leopard Purchase
If you are unsure exactly what year your Mac is, check the model number.
Model Numbers
You also might want to check application compatability since PowerPC applications aren't supported.
Application Compatibility
If you can't upgrade to Mountain Lion, here are the requirements for Lion.
Computer Compatibility - Lion
If you have applications that you want to use that aren't compatible, you can retain Snow Leopard and create a new partition to install Mountain Lion on.

Will upgrading to Mountain Lion delete MS Office?

I have MS Office installed on Lion OSX and I am really worried about what will happen once I upgrade to Mountain Lion. Will I lose the installation? Will I have to reinstall from the disc? Or will office survive the upgrade and appear in Mountain Lion? I lost my disc a long time ago. I have a 2011 MacBook Pro.

Yes it is compatible so with will not delete it or render it unusable.
See this article to make sure you have 2008 or later.

Cannot see my G5 server after upgrading to Mountain Lion. Help!

Hi everyone!
I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my MBP and now my G5 Power PC that I have as a Media Server with all my iTunes movies and music is no longer visible!! Really frustrating because there is a LOT on there. It worked fine with Lion! Am I going to have to downgrade to keep it working?
Please advise.
I have an iMac which is running Lion and it sees it fine. Apple TV sees it too. Not a connectivity issue.

can it be something related to wi-fi? I have read other posts talking about loss of connection using wifi. I'm connecting my G5 through an airport express which is expanding my wifi generated from my Apple Time Capsule. It is quite difficult for me to relocate the server close to the Time Capsule and vice versa but if it works, at least that would be something. It was working with Lion about 3 months ago - showing up in Finder, etc.

IPhoto update impossible after upgrading to Mountain Lion?

I upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion today and when I subsequently went into the iCloud settings I was surprised to learn my version (9.1.3) of iPhoto was not capable of supporting iCloud. The information stated if iPhoto had not been installed from the App Store, then one should go the the apple icon in the top left corner and select "Software Update" from there. When I do that, it is reported I do not have an update available. However, if I open iPhoto and check for an update from its menu, it indicates an update (two, actually) is available but when I click the "Open Software Update" button, I am directed back to the App Store where...no update available is the information provided.
I would really like to use iCloud Photo Stream and is one of the reasons I ponied up $20 to "upgrade" to Mountain Lion. Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I have been a MS/Windows user for 20+ years and this initial exposure to difficulties with the Mac OS is not what I expected.
Thanks.

Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. The purpose of this test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Try the download while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
