HT5282 Safari 5.1.7 for OSX is now unavailable since Mountain Lion Debuted

Apple has removed the last version of Safari "5.1.7" for SL from it's Update site and also removed the "Flashback" security updater for SL, but not Leopard or Lion? What's up with this?

MY guess... This is a means of ramrodding Safari 6 down our throats. Personaly, Safari 6 ruined my Safari experience. So many features such as the 'Activity Window' were removed. Top that off with the new auto-sizing "tabs" and I am completely fed up with Safari.
That's why I am posting this with Firefox :-)

Before you buy anything, first make sure your Mac is compatible.
Minimum specs for Snow Leopard. Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard - Read the Technical Specifications
Note. You can no longer buy Snow Leopard from an Apple retail store, only as follows.
If you are in North America ... Last I read, you must call them (1-800-MY-APPLE). It is $29 plus tax for family pack and $19 plus tax for the individual use version.
In Europe or otherwise … call your National Apple Helpline … http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
Once you have bought and upgraded you will need to apply the Combo updater for Snow Leopard. Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
For Mountain Lion the minimum specs are … technical specifications.
But if your computer meets those specs you can upgrade to Mountain Lion without any intermediate steps.

Can I upgrade a Mac OSX 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion?

I want to know if It is possible to upgrade my Mac OSX 10.6.8 to mountain Lion..

I'd suggest you hold off for at least version 10.8.2 to come out. The first two, 10.8.0 and 10.8.1, have proven problematic in terms of battery performance for a significant number of users (see the corresponding thread reaching Biblical proportions in this forum).

Have been using Lightroom on my Apple computer for years. Now, ever since upgrading to Apple's Yosemite operating system I get an error message (150:30) every time I try to open a lightroom file. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Also how do I subscribe to Adobe's Premium Support? Every time I've tried (through contact support) I just get taken on an unending loop.

I think we need a lot more information.
Exactly what does the message say?
Exactly what files are you trying to open?
Exactly how are you trying to open them (what menu command or button or mouse action or keyboard shortcut)?
And lastly, what version of Lightroom are you using?

What number should I put in "Number of Qualifying system for right to copy" in OS mountain lion up-to-date program form?

what number should I put in "Number of Qualifying system for right to copy" in OS mountain lion up-to-date program form? I'm a newbie on mac, just bought MBA two weeks ago. I've tried software update but it is not upgraded to mountain lion. what should I do to upgrade for free?

I'm on the page "https://uptodate.apple.com/UtdPrepareAction?program=Mountain%20Lion&locale=en_au"
and I still have the same question as the original poster, what number should I enter into the field:
"Number of qualifying systems".. cause "1" doesn't do it.. and the other numbers don't work... >:___:<

Love these year old threads.
Flashing is what some other sites specialize in, or even troubleshooting non-Apple cards.
There is an AMD Mac Edition 7950. Now. As well as EVGA GTX 680.
All of those were tested and reported on by Barefeats - back in March-May 2013.
Apple? not interested in PC cards other than they have quietly added more driver support in 10.8.3 and especially above. Not in 10.8.2.
Be interesting to see what Maverick support provides as far as GPUs.
And netkas and others are up on PC graphic cards, not Apple, even if they don't write drivers, they do often write how to flash a PC card and support. Apple and this discussion, no.

Lost use of word for mac 2004 when upgraded to mountain lion OSX

IVe just upgraded to Mountain Lion OSX and lost use of word for Mac 2004. how can i get in to work again

Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
You may want to consider as well:
These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
NeoOffice
Open Office
And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
Pages - word processing and layout
Keynote - presentation
Numbers - spreadsheet
Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
(Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

Upgrade path for iMac 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo from OSX 10.5.8 to mountain lion

Hi,
I have an Apple iMac 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 Gbytes of 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
It is currently running MAC OSX 10.5.8 --
I would like to know the proper upgrade path to the most current version of OSX which is
compatible with this hardware.
Thanks!

The starting point is to call Apple at 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask to purchase a copy of Mac OS 10.6 "Snow Leopard." It will cost about US$20 plus shipping. When you receive it, install it and use Software update to get to OS10.6.8; the updates are free to that point.
Now you will have the App Store app in your Dock. You can use that to purchase Mac OS 10.8 "Mountain Lion," the lastest. According to the MacTracker database, your iMac--which is either a Mid-2007 or Early 2008--can support 10.8.
CAVEATS:
• your iMac is at or near the minimum level to suport 10.8; performance may not be stellar
• if you currently run any old PowerPC apps (like Office 2004), they will still work unders 10.6 but no higher. You will have to upgrade to newer versions to continue using them. Office 2008 runs on either PPC or the newer Intel Macs. Office 2011 runs only on Intel Macs.

Error -1202 in iTunes for Mac SOLVED with upgrade to Mountain Lion

I recently had lots of trouble with iTunes and error -1202; my summary to Apple support is excerpted below. Turns out the problem has gone away after updating my OS from Lion to Mountain Lion. I still don't know what -1202 is, but the problem's gone. Sympathies to those whose machines can't upgrade to Mountain Lion.
Here's what I wrote to Apple:
I'm having difficulty connecting to the iTunes Store. When I click on virtually any link in the store, a popup window comes up stating "We could not complete your iTunes store request. An unknown error occurred (-1202). There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later."
I'm using a MacBook Air purchased new at the beginning of this year. OSX 10.7.5. I've had the same result trying to get at the Store with this machine from different sites (i.e. work and home). I'm able to use my wife's Mac (we share the same account on two machines) to access the store without difficulty. I can purchase something on her Mac and download it to my MacBook Air, but I can't make the purchase--or even navigate in the Store--with my machine. I've confirmed that the time on my machine is correct, and all the billing information for the account is up to date. I thought I'd wait to contact you until I had a chance to update iTunes, but the problem persists with iTunes 11. I've found many references to the -1202 error in the Apple website's discussion area, but none of them have solutions.
Then in follow up to Apple:
I am still having difficulties, and I think I've identified a larger issue. I can't use my machine to navigate the iTunes store with my Apple ID, and I can't use that same Apple ID to access the App Store, FaceTime, or photo ordering in iPhoto.
I mentioned in my first email to you that my wife's MacBook Pro uses the same Apple ID, and we can use her computer to do all of the functions that the other machine can't: I can get to FaceTime, the iTunes Store, the App Store, and photo ordering in iPhoto.
I also created a completely new Apple ID, which has been OK'd by the AppleID website, and it doesn't work on my machine, either.
To summarize: I know the Apple ID works, but there's something about my computer that isn't using it correctly.

You can use the balance of a redeemed iTunes gift card to purchase Mountain Lion.
Keep in mind of any applicable taxes and or fees that may be added to the purchase price.

TS1541 volume won't mount for main user-intel imac with mountain lion-what to do?

After logging in to admin user, grey screen with spinning arrow
Can login to Guest User but that is just set up for Safari only
Tried starting in Safe Boot, zapped the PRAM, removed all peripherals, rebooted with installation disk and used Disk Utility - disk greyed out and says not mounted
How can that be?
this is an Intel-based iMac purchased last summer, recently installed Mountain Lion

I have the same problem. Installed Mountain Lion, got the spinning orb with no escape so I powered down. Upon re-boot I have the dreaded "?" Tried restarting several times to no avial.
In desperation, I inserted the 10.5 (Leopard) disk to install the original system version that came with my iMac. Now the install disk cannot find or mount my hard drive. I'm stuck.
Anyone??

Can i update my G5 power mac from OSX 10.4.11 to mountain lion, can i update my G5 power mac from OSX 10.4.11 to mountain lion

i need to update my Power mac G5 to mountain lion, so i was wondering i am able to purchase mountain lion and update from there if I'm running OSX 10.4.11, or do i need to go from a newer version of software?

Hi Gary,
There are no more updates for 10.5, there haven't been for some years.
To help it survive longer...
TenFourFox is the most up to date browser for our PPCs, they even have G4 & G5 optimized versions...
http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/
I'd avoid vesrion 24 though, as it no longer supports plug-ins like Flash, yet does have better security.
http://code.google.com/p/tenfourfox/downloads/list
SeaMonkey seems pretty fast also, with many options...

Might also look into iCab & OmniWeb versions.

No notification for missed iCal event/alerts in Mountain Lion?

Anyone else having an annoying issue in Mountain Lion whereby iCal alerts are not showing for events that have been missed/triggered while their Mac is either asleep or occured within the timeframe while the PC is shutdown? No alerts are shown for these event following starting up the machine or resuming from sleep which they defnitiely used to do with Lion. Notification Center only seems to show future events or those occuring "now" (by design?) so right now for myself the only way to know if I have missed something is to trawl back through my days events etc manually.
I've done quite a bit of searching and found only a couple of related references on the web so it does not look widespread but any ideas as to a fix would be greatly appreciated. Upgraded from Lion to ML on a 2011 MacBook Air 11" so nothing unusual etc.
Cheers

Yes. I have ML 10.8.2 on a 2009 macbook pro. The Apple store genius was no help.
If I happen to be using my machine at the time, I'll see an alert in the upper right screen the correct amount of time before the item start. My choices are to close or snooze.
In the prior os, I could select from a number of snooze options and be reminded indefinitely. Now snooze will remind by default in 15 minutes even if the item starts the next day. Repeatedly snoozing in 15 minute intervals is dumb. Plus, if my machine is asleep, the alert will disappear at some point anyway.
If I do nothing, the alert counts down to the start time, displays 'now', and then disappears from the screen and notifications at the end time. Yet system preferences says notification alerts stay on the screen until dismissed. So even when my machine is awake, alerts still aren't persistent. Maybe it's a power nap and app issue as well? I sure won't regress os-wise. It took me weeks to recover from the last upgrade and compile a list of everytihing that went south.
I've gone low tech and keep a stack of old business cards on my desk. The backs contain all the appointments, events, and tasks I need to remember in chronological order. If an item can be postponed, I move the card to a second stack - my equivalent of indefinite snoozing while keeping the item in front of me. Periodically, I shuffle through this stack to see what I want to move to the top or act on. I'd try google calendar except from what I read on forums syncing between these apps is also problematic.
