Restoring front row on mountain lion

When LION was released, I dug into my backup files to find the software pieces that were removed, and was very easily able to restore Front Row functionality to me machines.
All of those elements remaind in the System/Library folders where they resided, however in MOUNTAIN LION certain other elements have changed, for instance, one of the calls made by the program is to: System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/BezelServices.framework/Versions/A/BezelServic es where even though the framework exists the instructions have been removed in the updating of BezelSerices.
This is also true of several other instructions in Frameworks that have been updated.
I, frankly, don't understand why thes individual lines of code could not have been preserved in the various elements that still remain. Front Row functioned nicely and provided a visually pleasing way to access media files, and play them.
ANYONE CAN TRACE THE CALLS THAT CAN NO LONGER FIND INSTRUCTIONS TO EXECUTE by reviewing the system log, and anyone with coding ability could probably add back the instructions and replace them in the appropriate libraries.

In case you haven't found a solution (I've stayed on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 for the exact same reason) you can install XMBC. Frankly it's BETTER than front row, can accesss every external drive, folder, and more importantly PLAY every type of video and audio codec WITHOUT CONVERSION just like in Front Row. iTunes propiatary H264 AAC codec combo for all video is wearing me thin. Having to convert every movie to it, taking HOURS sometimes is just too much. Even better about XMBC is there are about 100+ plugins, some of which search and automatically find metadata from places like IMDB and associate it w/each movie.

How do I install Front Row for my MacBook Air with Lion OS

I need to know how to simply install Front Row onto my MacBook Air with Lion OX 10.7.4. Please help.

Front Row is indeed "gone." There are alternatives, but first look at these links:

I have lost front row when os lion installed

I have recently installed OS lion and since then lost front row. Howdo we get it back?

Front Row is not compatible with Lion. In the early days, there was a way of getting it back, but I don't know if it still works, see the link on my post here:
http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/07/26/how-to-make-front-row-work-in-lion/
Alternatively, try XBMC (also linked on that page).

How do I get MS Office 2011 to install from DVD on Mountain Lion?

I just did a clean install of OS X Mountain Lion from a prepared bootable SD-Card on a new partition of my harddrive and wanted to install Microsoft Office 2011 using the original disc. But after double clicking the installer icon nothing happened besides the rainbow colored spinner showing up and disappearing shortly after and my optical drive making some noise. Activity Monitor indicated that the process of the Installer application doesn't react so I had to force quit it. I tried it multiple times to install MS Office this way using the disc but the problem persisted, also after a reboot.
So far my system is still in a pretty fresh state since I installed hardly any separate apps yet and the most intrusive one of them is probably merely Sophos. OS X's Installer app worked the way it should when I was installing iLife the day before using the Applications Install DVD that came with my Mac.
When I installed Office 2011 the first time, presumably one year ago on another partition on the same Mac which was running OS 10.6, everything worked fine and the same is true for the time when I upgraded to OS 10.7 (although I didn't install Office again, I just kept everything on the same partition).
So is there anyone out there who experienced similiar problems and can please help solve this problem?

Well, that depends on what you mean when you say "verified". But as I wrote in the first post I was able to install iLife from disc on Mountain Lion without much ado. And just now I tested a DVD with some pictures on it and the disc drive would read and display all photos in Preview.
And given the facts that I rarely use my optical drive at all and that my machine is only little more than a year old, a drive failure seems quite unlikely. But thanks for your response anyway!

Mountain Lion won't install on 10.7.4. Suggestion from Apple is to completely erase harddisk and install Leopard Snow Leopard Mountain Lion. Is there no other way to install Mountain Lion

Mountain Lion won't install on 10.7.4. Suggestion from Apple is to completely erase the harddisk and install Leopard > Snow Leopard > Mountain Lion.
Is there no other way to install Mountain Lion?

I tried and failed for several hours to install Mountain Lion, and was repeatedly getting the "Recovery System" cannot be created error. I tried all the tricks: resizing the drive partition, booting from an external boot drive, all to no avail. After reading other users struggling with the same issue, I had determined it to be a boot camp drive error. However, I didn't want to have to erase and begin anew when I came upon a possible solution. I had long ago renamed my boot camp drive with a "." (".windows" for me) in order to avoid having the partition show up on my desktop. So, I boot into windows and renamed the c: drive without the "." ("windows"), and reboot into os x. The install then went off without a hitch. I hope this will be helpful for others struggling with this issue that may have renamed their boot camp drives in a similar manner.

Problem installing PSE 8 on Mountain Lion

Hi, I'm having trouble installing PSE 8 on Mountain Lion. It worked just fine on Lion, then I upgraded to ML, and it wouldn't open. I deleted and tried to reinstall PSE 8, and have not gotten beyond the "Progress" pane with a message that "a required component has failed to install correctly", with the error:
"Adobe Anchor Service
Error:
Error 2."
I have tried a bunch of different things; running the CS cleaner tool, disabling my virus software, repairing disk permissions, restarting my computer, and deleting all Adobe files from these locations:
/Users/<<username>>/Library/Application Support >> The Adobe folder
/Users/<<username>>/Library/Preferences >> Anything with com.adobe
/Library/Application Support >> folder named Adobe
/Library/Preferences >> Anything with com.adobe
/Applications >> Application files
/Applications/Utilities >> The Adobe Updater
I've even created another admin account on my computer and tried to install PSE 8 there, but I still get the same error.
Any help to get this sucker installed is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

I looked a little more into fixing the issue, and it turns out that I missed the top level Library > Application Support > Adobe folder. Once that was deleted, my problem was solved.
I did find this article helpful, for anyone else who is having similar issues: http://www.cultofmac.com/90060/how-to-completely-uninstall-software-under-mac-os-x-macrx/
Thanks again for your help, Barbara!

After Installing the OS x Mountain Lion some o the softwares are asking for Java SE 6 Runtime. Can someone please help me find a solution.

After Installing the OS x Mountain Lion some o the softwares are asking for Java SE 6 Runtime. Can someone please help me find a solution.

By default, ML no longer comes with the Java runtime preinstalled. I believe the route to enabling Java if you are going to need it is to run the Java Preferences app found in Utilities. It will inform you of Java's absence and offer to install the latest version and activate it. On subsequent runs, the Preferences app will allow you to fine tune how the runtime operates.
Note that the new default operation is for the applet plugin to be disabled. You need to enable it as needed and it self-deactivates if unused in awhile. Also important to note that Java comes in both 32 and 64 bit versions and you can set the preferred order. Default is 64-bit but I've had issues with some applets failing to run and have had to switch the order.

Last week I've install Mac OS X Mountain Lion and then after the installation finish my IMAC start up in verbose mode. How can I turn off this mode and start my IMAC normally. I've try to key in the code "sudo nvram boot-args=" in terminal also.

Thank you for all of your answer.

I've seen it mentioned on here that a PRAM reset may solve it:
Reset PRAM
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P and R.
You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

My macbook pro has stalled whilst installing an update of mountain lion, i can't shut it down, cancel the installation, nothing, it's frozen, don't know what to do..

my macbook pro (with retina) has stalled whilst installing an update of mountain lion, the blue bar has stopped progressing, it has frozen and hasn't moved, I can't cancel the installation, I can't shutdown the computer, can't restart it, nothing...help!

Thanks for sharing...
To the OP - I had a upgrade from the App Store 'stall' on me last week - I couldn't even Force Quit the App Store app. I ended up just powering down with the power button and when I logged back into the App Store, the update finished downloading in seconds and I was ready to begin installation.
Try that and see if it works for you...

When I try and install CS2 on OS Mountain Lion is saying I have a Non HFS drive

When I try and install CS2 on OS Mountain Lion is saying I have a Non HFS drive but I have!

I doubt it as well.
You might however be able to migrate the install from another drive that it is already installed on.
What you can try is to partition another drive ebven an external one and install a previous version of the Mac OS and then install CS2 and see if you can migrate it to the 10.8 drive.
Even if you do do not be surprised if you cannot run it. zThe only other possibility would then see if there is a hack that will allow you to run earlier versions of certain software on the Mac OS 10.8.
