  • I have an Epson scanner that is apparently no longer supported  because it is a PowerPC app.  It's a very good scanner that worked fine until I upgraded to OS Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro.  Any suggestions on how I can continue to use it?

    At least Logic Pro 9 and Logic Pro X work correctly in Mountain Lion. Furthermore, Logic Pro X requires the latest OS X Mountain Lion version

    I have a MacBook Pro purchased in 2008.  It is a 2.6 GHz Core 2 Duo Processor with 4 GB memory and I am currently using OS 10.7 Lion.  But it is one of the "silver keyboard" models.  I was told by someone that I would not be able to use Mountain Lion.  I have already purchased it for use on my new MacBook Pro, and would like to put it on this one as well, but don't know if I should just try it.

  • How do you reinstall OS X Mountain Lion?

    I have had a problem and I was wondering how you take off Mountain lion and reinstall it onto the OS?

    restart your computer while pressing down both the command and r keys at the same time....
    once you see the apple logo, release the keys and you'll get into the disk utility menu....reinstall from there...
    good luck...
    another way of doing it is to redownload mountain lion and create a install usb thumb drive....
    read here for instructions on how to create one....that way, you don't have to redownload it everytime you need to reinstall...

  • Info bar at bottom of window missing in Mountain Lion

    I have a Mac Pro with Snow Leopard installed and at the bottom of finder windows, such as the Macintosh HD window, there is a bar which shows how much space is left on hard drive and also how many files/folders are selected. On my Macbook pro with Mountain Lion this bar is missing and I can't seem to get it show at all. Is this a feature of Mountain Lion as I found the info bar very useful?
    Thanks
    Peter

    That's the status bar, hidden in OS X Lion and Mountain Lion by default. To show it, open a Finder window and go to View menu (on the menu bar) > Show Status Bar, so it will show up at the bottom of the Finder window

  • HT200160 This solution does not seem to work when I upgraded from OS X 10.6 to OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion).  I've tried all versions of this.  Any suggestions specific to getting this to work with Mountain Lion?

    Any suggestions for making this work with Mountain Lion?  I've tried all similar solutions on web.  I've been able to get this to work with Lion, and after upgrading to Mountain Lion it seems to hold true (doesn't make me implement again).  But when I went from OSX 10.6 to Mountain Lion and have to implement it on 10.8 - it isn't working. Thanks.

  • How do you use imessages on "Mountain Lion"

    How do you use i-messages on Mountain Lion, Several analysis of the new operating system seem to say you can do that but  I tried to send a message to my Ipod, Iphone and I-Pad from the new operating system " Mountain Lion"  But I guess I got things set up wrong it did not work.  I got no messages from the I-Mac.
    Since I am a new I-Mac used ( Have a ipod, ipad & Iphone) would like to be able to send Imessages from my I-Mac and can't figure out how to do that. I keeps wanting to send AIM messages and when I go to change it to I Cloud mesages I don't see I-Cloud on the list???

    Joe thanks for the reply but I am still confused here is the problem:
    I opened The accounts window and went to my ME.com account but it wants me to set up an AIM account , what is that all about . I was sure I was sending the messages thru the apple server .
    Second I am a PC person and this is my wifes I-Mac,  so I am new to MACS but I have used PC's for 35 years. 
    She wants to be able to send me I-Messages for her MAC that is why I am trying to set this up for her.   She is NOT a Techie and so she depends on me.  I am very confused by the MAC as I have buily trouble shoot and fixed PS (not as a profession but as a hobby) I am trying to get used to the MAC so I can help my wife. As I have an IPOD and an 4S I-Phone. Now you know the whole story.  Sorry to bore you with the details but I was sure it would help you give me a better Idea of where to go to correct the AIM situation.
    OK when I go to the ME.com account there is no where where I see Caller ID???
    What I see is My wifes e-mail a Bonjour ( imactive) account, &  Yahoo account.  I may be in the wrong place
    Toi be frank I don't see an Imessages account.  Under mail accounts I see My wifes 5 e-mail accounts and one of them is a .ME account ( I assume that is the icloud account) but where it says account type it says AIM how do I change it to an I Cloun account?
    OK the next question when you say click on the DOCK I go to system preferences and click on DOC and I get some screen that shows SIZE, Magnification Position on screen and so on.
    When I go to the Finder and click on Applications I get a window that says messages but there is nothing on that window that I can adjust?
    Help Where is i messages
