HT5022 What works with Mountain Lion? AirPort Utility 5.6 will not install on Mountain Lion.

What gives? The AirPort Utility 5.6 wil not load on a computer running Mountain Lion. Attempted both on an iMac and Macbook.

That is correct, the 5.6 version of the AirPort Utility will not install under Mountain Lion ... but it will run on it once installed. One option is to use a utility, like Pacifist, to extract and "install" the utility into the Utilities folder.

HT5022 Airport Utility 5.6 will not install under Mountain Lion

I have older Base Station Extreme and Airport Express models that need to be looked after; however, the fix to install Airport Utility 5.6 under Lion will not work under Mountain Lion. The installer complains that "the version of Mac OS X on this volume is not supported". So...suggestions?

That is correct. AirPort Utility 5.6 for OS X Lion will NOT install under OS X Mountain Lion. If you had it already installed, and then upgraded, it would have worked just fine.
One option, is to use Pacifist to extract the utility directly from the .dmg file.

HT5022 AirPort Utility 5.6 will not install on Lion

I have an older airport express and I'd like to be able to manage it the new Aiprot utulity is not compatible and the older version of Airport Utility 5.6 is not able to be installed on Lion.

Be sure that you are attempting to install the correct version (5.6) that is designed to work on OS X Lion. You can download it directly from Apple Support here.

HT5022 Airport Utility 5.6 would not install

Airport Utility 5.6 would not install on my MacBook Pro with 10.7.5 (Lion): "The installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance." Hello, Apple?

Use the workaround described in this thread: How do I configure an Airport Express when I get this message in Airport Utility? "This version of AirPort Utility doesn’t support this base station."
Pay attention to the caveat in the final paragraph, restated here for emphasis:
Keep in mind that Apple's decision to abandon support for your original AirPort Express was for reasons known only to them. Remember that you are using obsolete equipment, should some future OS X feature not work for you.

Question: i upgraded to Lion and now itune upgrade will not install (error message appears)

i upgraded to Lion and now itune upgrade will not install (error message appears)

iPhoto needs to be upgraded in order to work with Mavericks. You can do that via Software Update or the App Store.
The iWork apps are free with a new iOS device since 1 SEP 2013. They are free with a new Mac since 1 OCT 2013. They are also free with the upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9 if you had the previous version installed when you upgraded.
Upgrading iPhoto does not involve your iPhoto Library. Your photos will still be there. But it never hurts to make a backup first.

I am thinking of installing Lion, but my Quicken software will not be supported on Lion. Does anyone have an alternative that is as good as Quicken?

Thanks very much for the advice. I trawled through the other answers on the site and it appears others had the same issue. I doubled the available space and the install went like clockwork... which is what one would norma;ly expect from Apple :-)
Maybe Apple should have a ' definitely read me first' notice before a download takes place with CLEAR instructions to have more than the 6GB they indicate ofr the Mountain Lion download

Airport Utility 5.6 does not download on my Lion 10.7

I'm trying to set up an old airport espress and found out I had to install Airport Utility 5.6 to be able to do it. When I try to download it does not install on my MacBook Lion OS X 10.7.5, any ideas why?

Do you get any sort of error message when you try to install, and if so what does it say?

Epson ICC profiles will not install in Mountain Lion

I have an Epson R1900 printer which requiress icc profiles. The generally agreed route has been to use those from Epson of America and these work fine on my PC. On the Mac however only the matte set will install. The glossy profiles bring up an error stating that I do not have enough permissions to complete the install. I believe this was also a known issue in Lion and I have found one suggested solution which was to adjust permissions in Colorsync and Profile folders in the Library.
However, in Mountain Lion this did not work for me. Does anyone else have success in installing these profiles?
Previous discussion here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3319527?start=0&tstart=0

I just used the Pacifist tool to peer into the Oct 4, Epson Printer Drivers v2.12 for OS X package. In particular, for the R1900, both sets of the ICC profiles are installed into the following paths. Supporting code for this printer is installed under the InkjetPrinter2 hierarchy.
/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/ICCProfiles/SPR1900_A.profiles/Contents/R esources
/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/ICCProfiles/SPR1900_W.profiles/Contents/R esources
The AutoSetupTool is installed in:
/Library/Printers/EPSON/InkjetPrinter2/AutoSetupTool/EPIJAutoSetupTool2.app
Everything in the above paths is owned by root with group admin. The individual R1900 .icc files are read/write by root, read-only by everyone else. There are two categories of .icc files for the R1900 as shown below:
Stylus Pro R1900 A Profiles
Stylus Pro R1900 W Profiles

Airport Utility 5.1 - DO NOT INSTALL

Sorry for sounding so alarming. I have been running Airport Utility 5.0 with my Airport Extreme-N and Airport Express. Airtunes has been working well with both.
However, as soon as I installed today's update version 5.1, it started cutting out again, dropping my shared library from the network and making Airtunes impossible to listen to.
I don't know why Apple is having so much trouble getting this software right. Anyway, I restored to version 5.0 and it's working fine again, although I need to keep the Utility open at all times to get Airtunes or Shared Libraries to work on my PC.

Airport 7.3.2 will not install

"An error occurred while updating the firmware." Great -- NOT! I don't really care to update, but every time my computer wakes up, AirPort Utility pops up asking to update the firmware and then proceeds to fail. It's like a bad Windows nightmare. This error message is bad. The fact that it pops up EVERY time I wake my machine up is very, very bad.
Any help would be appreciated. Even information on how to stop Airport Utility from checking for updates.

I have had the same problem with my AEBN since I got it. I am still on 7.2 as it always fails trying to update the firmware (tried all versions up to 7.3.2). I get an error dialog saying "An error occurred while trying to access the Apple wireless device. Make sure your network connection is valid and try again" Error -1. Thing is, I am directly connected using ethernet cable and Airport utility does seem to be connected okay. I have tried updating via WinXP and OSX PPC. No luck. Have tried hard reset.

OSX Lion & Brother Scanner DSmobile 600 will not install driver

OSX Lion 10.7.2
Hardware: Brother DSmobile 600 (USB)
Software Driver: DSmobile600_Mac_1_2_4.dmg (OSX 10.6-10.7)
Scanner driver does not install - Scanner does not work
Procedure
Launch the Brother installer - goes through install procedure - forces a required restart
looked in BotherScanner folder - nothing there
Apparently the installer is not actually installing anything except the folder
Looked at the installer content - cannot see anything to install
Do not have the driver form the old OSX
The Brother DSmobile USB scanner did work in OSX6
Any solutions?

I discovered the asnwer to my own question for the benifit of anyone else.
Turn off all anti-virus software!
If you disable any installed security virus /network software etc., download the latest brother DS600 scanner dirver. the Brother scanning driver will install.
however you may have to run any repair software you have afterwards. e.g. Tech Tool Pro 6 and Cocktail.
The Brother DS600 scannr driver install is kind of rough.
The Brother DS600 Mobile scanner does work in Lion 10.7.2
In addition, the Brother DS600 mobile scanner driver installs in WIN 7. Same scenario turn off all anti-virus software before install. works

Newbie asks: Will an AIR Application work with CFCs on Standalone PC if ColdFusion is not installed?

I am a ColdFusion developer who is absolutely new to Flex.
I would like to create a Flex/AIR application that will run on standalone PCs that are not connected to the Internet. As such, I need to develop a truly standalone application with the entire front and back end installed on the PC.
I will need to create the services that the SWF files will use to fetch and write data to the database. I would prefer to use my CF skills to write those services in ColdFusion. When I deploy the application as a standalone Windows application, would CF have to be installed on the target PCs, or is the AIR runtime able to use the services (the CFC files) that were created with ColdFusion?
If the answer is that CF would have to be installed, I would have to create the services in something other than CF. If that's the case, what would you suggest that I use to create the services? I would be looking for something with the smallest possible footprint that will work on truly standalone PCs.
