First we need to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info and then System Report. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.

HT3825 I am running mac os x version 10.5.8 can I download Mountain Lion?
I am currently running mac os x version 10.5.8 can I download OS X Mountain Lion directly or do I have to go back and download snow leopard and lion before I can download Mountain lion?
http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/
Snow Leopard is a requirement. Mountain Lion will only be offered via the App Store and the App Store requires 10.6.6 (at least). -
How many computers can I upgrade to Lion after purchase from the A store?
If you are referring to the USB Lion Flash installer or the App Store download, then you can install on all the computers you own.

Hello. Will I be able to run Windows XP on a virtual machine (such as VirtualBox) in Mountain Lion? Currently, I have a Late-2009 MacBook with Snow Leopard, and I am planning on installing VirtualBox and Windows XP soon, then I'm planning on upgrading to Mountain Lion afterwards. Thanks.
Yes.

I have a Power Mac G5 Dual 2.3 running 10.5.8, I understand that I can not upgrade to Lion, so what will happen to my Mobile me, which I can not live with out? Also will I be able to get Icloud to work?
Hi Mary, the other so called "Features" of iClound will not work for like Syncing, but eMail will.
MobileMe & dot Mac will still work last I heard.
iCloud Mail setup, even in 10.4/10.5…
Don't delete your old account yet. Just setup a new one in Mail>Preferences>Accounts, little plus icon. Choose IMAP as account type, not ,mac or MobileMe.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
▪ Server name: imap.mail.me.com
▪ SSL Required: Yes
▪ Port: 993
▪ Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
▪ Password: Your iCloud password

I'm now running OSX v. 10.6.8. I purchased OSX Mountain Lion from the app store
I'm now running OSX v. 10.6.8. I purchased OSX Mountain Lion from the app store & after about 40 minutes of "downloading" (started 40 or so minutes ago) my iMac restarted & I signed in. But OSX 10.6.8 is still there & the image of OSX Mountain Lion is in my dock with the caption "OSX Mountain Lion -- Paused" !!! ...Now ANOTHER 20 minutes have passed & no change nor other prompts nor info have come up!! WHAT'S GOING ON??? PLEASE HELP!!! ~~~THANK YOU!!!
THANKS SO VERY MUCH, mende1, for so quickly responding to my plea for HELP!!
I had never turned my iMac off so I still don't understand why the download paused, & when I looked in my Applications folder there was no Mountain Lion, but your words, "However, you can pause and resume the download as many times as you want" encouraged me to look deeper & try harder!! I clicked & double-clicked (& multi-clicked!) the Mtn Lion icon in my dock to no avail but finally, I clicked & HELD the click for about 7 seconds . . . . . . . & then a little pop-up came & asked me if I want to "Resume the download" or stop it!! So I slid the cursor over to "Resume..." & it's downloading again!! ~~I HOPE!! I guess 4.4 GB of OS update will take more than a little time to get in there!
~~~Again, THANK YOU so MUCH & God less you with a WONDERFUL time with your studies & future dreams!!! -

I am still running Leopard Mac OS X 10.5.8. How can I get Lion Mac OS X 10.6, so I can update to Mountain Lion?
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
If you need to purchase Snow Leopard you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
Snow Leopard from eBay
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions. The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download.
Be sure your computer meets the minimum requirements:
Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
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)

Sorry Josh, I'm having a bad day with my illness.
Can I ask you to repost this question? Might try in the Mountain Lion forum as well as here.
Put "Mountain Lion Install fails" in the headline box, then from your second post -
"When i run The OSX Mountain Lion Icon i downloaded from the App Store it always gets to the point when its about to restart but the it keeps saying "please quit the application and try again" Now i've tried Re-Downloading it a lot of times but that doesn't work"
and add the Mac specification -

Please help, because I have searched everywhere, and apparently, 10.6 (Snow Leopard), is not sold in the Apple Store anymore. If i were to buy it at Amazon, it would cost me about $105~$200, which is an absolute rip-off

Can i transfer mountain lion from my macbook pro to my mabook air
can i transfer osx mountain lion to my macbook air running snowleopard 10.6.8
If you purchased OS X Mountain Lion in the App Store, just open App Store > Purchases on the MacBook Air and download OS X Mountain Lion for free. Make a backup before upgrading.
If OS X Mountain Lion came with your MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion can only be installed on the MacBook Pro, and you can't install it on the MacBook Air, so you will have to purchase it on the Mac App Store
