HT3258 Hello all who are having problems downloading OS X Mountain Lion

If you are running Third Party applications, Mountain Lion may not download. The Apple Tech fixed my problem with the following instruction: Shut down your computer and start up in Safe Mode. Hold down the left SHIFT button while starting up the mac. When the progress bar appears, let go of the SHIFT button and let the computer start up in Safe Mode. Once restarted in Safe Mode go to the App Store, click on the TAB "Purchases" and DOWNLOAD Mountain Lion. I am running Adobe, Microsoft, and several other Third Party applications. The Safe Mode start up worked - I was able to install Mountain Lion. Thank you Apple Support!

Klutz, just because you had trouble with Mountain Lion, doesn't mean everyone will. That said, before upgrading to Mountain Lion, read these tips, to avoid the most common pitfalls:

Hello all I am having problems viewing my flash buttons on my website

Hello all I am new to creating my own websites. I am using
DW8. At the moment all is going ok as I have managed to get my home
page up and running, though my website is far from over i have
decieded to add flash buttons. Now when i preview the site in DW8
it shows all the content on the page, however when I actually view
my website (using Firefox) everything shows except the flash
buttons. I have looked and researched everywhere to try and fix
this problem but either don't get what people are talking about or
just can't find the assocciated files. Any help is very
appreciated.
Cheers.

Which DW8? 8.0.2, by chance?

HT202159 Problems downloading OS X Mountain Lion?

Hi there. Just purchased OS X Mountain Lion today. Tried download app 3 times. Every time when about 96% download was done got error and message "download can't be completed". Had to start fron scratch again. A d because this file is more than 4Gb, it was kind of pain. I don't know what is goin on. My IMac has enough room on hard drive. Memory is 16Gb. No problem at all. Mac Keeper 2012 shows me that all is perfect. What can be a problem?
Would appreciate any advice, because got stock in the middle of process.

Mac Keeper 2012 shows me that all is perfect.
MacKeeper is the problem.
So called cleaning utilities on a Mac can do more harm than good. Your Mac runs maintenance for you.
Results of an ASC forum search for MacKeeper > Community Search: Apple Support Communities
See this user tiip re MacKeeper > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3027
Uninstall the software > Uninstalling MacKeeper
Then restart your Mac and try re downloading Lion.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select Mountain Lion. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

Are people who are having prob with iTunes 8.2 & iPhone OS3.0 using Intego?

I am wondering whether people who are having problems with iTunes and iPhone are using Intego's Netbarrier? I couldn't download OS3.0 until I turned off Banner and eventually the whole thing. Is this the cause of my problems? My iPhone is no longer recognized by iTunes 8.2.

I want to withdraw this question as it unfairly associates many problems with this one company and application. The problems are not just related to this software. I apologize to Intego if this appeared accusatory.
I have since found answers to all of the questions posed for the iPhone 3.0 update. Only one was related to Intego and its firewall.
Thanks.

Having problems downloading software

Hello all, I'm having issues downloading things from the internet. I'm up to date on the software for my MacBook Pro. When I try to download something it goes to a white web page and the status bar only fills up half way. Have I picked up some malware or something? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. THX

+The status bar at the top of the Safari browser fills up like it should+
No, if a download is happening there should be another smaller 'Download' window showing progress.
Try this approach and see what it does, rather than just clicking on a download link control-click on it and a pop up menu should appear, select Download linked file as then give it a name and set the location as your Desktop ...

Is everybody getting problem with OS X Mountain Lion in this world or few people

Apple should fix immediately this new version or Genuis come ahead. I am checking every big informaton website but no one highlighted these issues.

Hello BinodDhami,
I agree with Grant Bennet-Alder, what you see here "are only a handful" of users who are having problems big or small with Mountain Lion.
I for one have a smooth upgrade for both my iMac and MacBook air, and I think whoever were running Lion should have a smoother upgrade becasue Lion and Mountain Lion are very similar and they probably share a lot of the same codes, as compared to older OS.
It may be too late to say here, but whenever you perform a major OS upgrade, and like all mac websites have recommended, you always
1. Perform all the OS and software updates
2. Back up
You would also find out, especially if yours is a daily working computer, that your major running software is compatible with the new OS.
Like for me, I run Adobe Creative Suite, and have major apps like Norton Internet Security, Maintain Cocktail, SuperDuper, CandyBar, DockStar and Attachment Tamer running, so I make sure they are all compatible with Mountain Lion before I hit install.
As for your problem, maybe you can start a new discussion and detail as much as possible, your mac's problems, what 3rd party apps etc you have that you think might affect it, and screen shots - It's a wonderful thing now that this forum allows us to post screen shots!
Cheers

HT1349 I'm having problems downloading apps to my iPad using wifi at a McDonalds. The apps all stay in a"waiting" mode. I can't delete them or get them to install. This is the second time that this has happened. Advice?

I am having problems downloading apps while using wifi in a public setting. The apps will show up on my screen and say "waiting". They will not install. I can't even delete them from my screen. This has happened before and I had to reset my iPad to factory settings. I hope I don't have to do this again. Any advice?

Well, typically one of the fixes that I would suggest is to try to delete the waiting icons. WIFi in a public places like McDonalds, Starbucks, B&N, etc. is not the greatest and I would avoid those places for downloading and updating apps. But I do realize that not everybody has access to Wifi in their homes.
These are all things that have worked at one time or another for other users. Hopefull one of them will work for you. Just ignore whatever does not apply or anything that you have already tried.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

Hi
I am having problems downloading 2 purchased movies. Cars 2 & Toy Story. I had it on My iPad, then after a while the movies would not play.

It continues to tell me there is a download error. Please help! Need these movies for my 3 year old!

I have three chargers(the newer kind) and all three of them have major shorts in them. They have to be in a specific postition for them to charge! Why is this? Are all of them having problems?!?!

I have three chargers(the newer kind) and all three of them have major shorts in them. They have to be in a specific postition for them to charge! Why is this? Are all of them having problems?!?! This is just RIDICULOUS!!!

I have a charger for the iPhone 5 that has absolutely no problems. I got my iPhone 5 the day they were first sold almost a year ago. Also in my family are 2 iPads and 2 iPad mini's all with the new lightning cables and none have had problems.
If you have problems and they're legitimate Apple products, bring them back for replacement.
