HT4906 I upgraded to the new mountain lion. Why did this not upgrade my iPhoto too?
Do i really need to spend £10.49 to update iPhoto?
iPhoto is not part of the Operating System. You don't have to update it if you don't want to, but if you do it will require a purchase.

I just purchased a MacBook Pro Retina. Checked my OSX and it is version 10.8.1... trying to find a way to upgrade to a higher version. In the app store it doesnt show the update nor downloading the new Mountain Lion OXS doesnt work. Please help
hienn,
Not yet. There was an upgrade page to 10.8.2 for the late 2012 models but it's down now. I have to assume that Apple pulled it because of some bugs. I would look for something next week, more likely than not. In the meantime, the OP should be good with 10.8.1 until the update shows up again.

I have an iMac Intel Core 2 Duo with Mac OSX Snow Leopard installed. Would it be ok to download the new Mountain Lion?
Your iMac needs to be a mid-2007 or newer model. See this page for specs supported, and assuming you meet them, you can upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion (see step 2 on the linked page).

I have a white macbook purchased early 2008. I'm updated to ver. 10.6.8 can I upgrade to the new mountain lion and will it operate?
It doesn't appear to be Mountain Lion compatible. See below.
Your Mac must be one of the following models:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009) -
I just got the new macbook pro about 2 weeks ago, it has lion. When the new mountain lion comes this summer, can i just update it on my macbook pro since it isn't so old? And if i can update it, do i have to pay, or is it a free update?
I'm in the same position, the store said they didn't know of any new release, so i bought my macbook pro to find out about mountain lion. I really hope that i'm not going to pay for the upgrade. New to apple, also last month bought my Ipad 3, really thought that Airplay would have been on my book pro, nope, waste of time.........need that update to use it. Back i the box then, get the windows 7 ultimate pro back out until then.

I habe an older Macbook air. Its a 2010 and is currently running Lion 10.7.5. I was wondering if it would be able to support the new Mountain Lion OS?
In addition to Stedman's spot-on reply --
When you buy an upgrade disk, all updates in that OS can be found on Software Update.
For instance, I bought Snow Leopard at 10.6.
All other updates have been free and downloadable. So I'm not a 10.6.7.
10.4 (Tiger) went to 10.4.11.
10.5 (Leopard) went to 1.5.8
10.6(Snow Leopard) is currently at 10.6.7.
Now, when Lion come out (the next major upgrade of OSX), I will have to pay to go to 10.7.
After that, updates are free til 10.8 comes out. -
I opened my account on the MacAir and have the new Mountain Lion showing i purchased. When I open my account on my other two machines it does not show. Any suggestions on why or how to fix?
iMac and Mac Pro
ThanksSADLY not as i downloaded an upgrad to my original PAGES/
i have in the meantim had to open www.icloud. then from there import the file that i am working on and then check on ipad if it uploaded/ yes it did.
but what a waste of time as it doesn not save any changes done automatically back in the cloud....
i am now downloading the new LION and hope that it will fix the problem
i cant find any other way. I was lead to believe that you wrote, it saved automatically, on to the cloud, you then opened anohter device in anotother country even, and the new file was there, waiting, in its latest version.......
and the same magic was supposed to happen in reverse.
It doesn't/
if i have to open a browser, go to www.icloud....why on earth did they not just leave us an icon to drop it in in that case?
I hope the new lion will help resolve the isssue/
any other ideas> keep em coming...thank you so much. -

Installing Canon MF4320-4350 (UFRII LT) with the new mountain lion OS.
I cannot get my Canon MF4320-4350 (UFRII LT) printer to work since I installed the new mountain lion OS. Please help! Thanks.
If you upgraded to Mountain Lion from Lion or Snow Leopard and had the UFR2 LT driver installed for that OS, you will need to remove the old UFR2 driver and install the latest. Before you do this, if you already created a printer for the MF43xx in Print & Scan, remove this printer.
Then, on the Mac, open Finder and navigate to HD > Library > Printers > Canon and trash the UFR2 and CUPSCMFP folders.
Still in Finder, navigate to HD > Library > LaunchAgents and trash the files "jp.co.canon.UFR2.BG.plist" and "jp.co.canon.CUPSCMFP.BG.plist"
Restart the Mac and after you log back in, install the Canon UFR2 v2.41 driver and then add the MF43xx via Print & Scan. -
I have recently bought a iMac but I do not have the new Mountain Lion installed. Do I have to buy this or am I entitled to a copy for free?
Am I eligible for the free upgrade?

If I have the Snow Leopard OS do I need to update the Lion OS before the new Mountain Lion OS?
If I have the Snow Leopard OS do I need to update the Lion OS before the new Mountain Lion OS?
Apple has not detailed Mountain Lion's requirements or how it will be made available, and probably won't until much closer to release. So we cannot answer your question at this time. Keep an eye on Apple's web pages for Mountain Lion as well as the many Apple-related news web sites and I'm sure you'll see the announcement when it comes.

I am getting an error message when opening Notes with the new Mountain Lion OS. When it opens it begins to pinwheel and then it closes and an error message box opens up. Is anyone else having this problem?

I just installed the new mountain lion software on my iMac. I was currently running Snow Leopard. My problem is with my mouse. Now when I scroll down the page it moves in the opposite direction. In system preferences I tried checking and unchecking Natural for scroll feature. Movement from side to side works fine. Has anyone experienced this problem?
I think this new scrolling behaviour was introduced with Lion. You do get used to it pretty quickly (well I did). Are you sure that deselecting Natural Scrolling in Mouse Prefs doesn't re-instate the previous behaviour, it does here.

I have the new mountain lion OS and every now and again when I'm working with the mouse the screen zooms in. How does this happen and how can I reverse it
You are double tapping with 1 finger.
