Installing CS2 on Mac running Mountain Lion?
So, I purchased a new/unopened copy of this locally just to start learning Illustrator. Didn't know that I would be unable to install it due to Mac support issues. So, is it possible for me to upgrade to CS6 without having to buy a full-blown version of CS6 (or the monthly-fee version, which - as a newbie/beginner I'm just not up for)? If not, then I'm going to have to try to return this and I'm also not up for the hassle of that :>) Thanks in advance for advice.
So, is it possible for me to upgrade to CS6 without having to buy a full-blown version of CS6 (or the monthly-fee version
No.
You can only upgrade to CS6 from CS5.
You cannot run CS2 on an Intel-based Mac (such as the one you own).
Your options are to buy CS6, join the Cloud or return CS2.
You could run the trial version of Illustrator CC for free for 30 days to see if you like it. Then decide from there.

I have two older macs running Mountain Lion that have been upgraded over the years from Leopard. They have continued to be able to print to a Canon IP5000 and use a driver that is fully functional. On the new MacBook Pro, the printer is found, but no driver is available for Mountain Lion from apple or Canon. Is there a way of getting the driver info from the old mac so that it will work on the new one?
Sorry, it says "New Event," not "New Entry." My bad.

I have iphoto8 installed on my imac running mountain lion.If I install iphoto 11 will my existing photos be installed on iphoto 11 automatically
Back up your present iPhoto library. Install the new version of iPhoto. When you run it for the first time it will want to update the library. When it's finished you should be good to go.

Hi - I've stupidly forgotten a log in password on my new iMac running mountain lion, tried the recoverpassword prompt by Command R and then terminal - all OK, but my computer is showing no volumes - and therefore no existing users so I'm unable to reset the password. Can anyone help? I'm tearing my hair out.
You are not selecting your boot volume. That would be the one indented at the top of the list. The one labeled "Macintosh HD." The internal hard drive would be the entry above Macintosh HD. I can't read it in the picture.
Are you able to boot the computer normally? If not, then boot from the Recovery HD. Try the resetpassword routing:
Forgot Your Account Password
For Snow Leopard and earlier
Mac OS X 10.6- If you forget your administrator password
For Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
When the menubar appears select Terminal from the Utilities menu.Enter resetpassword at the prompt and press RETURN. Follow instructions in the dialog window that will appear.

Trojan clampi- is it possible an i-Mac running Mountain Lion 10.8.4, could it have this trojan?

No. From Wikipedia:
Clampi is a man-in-the-browser trojan that steals financial information from companies that are sent to hackers to use for fraud scams. The virus has been around since 2007 and only affects Microsoft computers -
Firefox problems on one of two Macs running Mountain Lion
I just upgraded to Mountain Lion on my two Macs. On the MacBook Air using Firefox 14.0.1 some pages in "my account" at Amazon's site and the my.yahoo.com portal (when signed in to the account) are wonky. '''Note: the portal page of my.yahoo.com looks fine if you are not signed in. It only gets jumbled if you're trying to view the custom home page for your account.''' The same is true of Amazon. the general site looks fine; it's only when you try to view deeper pages, such as "my account." I've seen similar problems at a few other sites, as well. All sites are fine in Safari. Text overlaps paragraphs, images missing, etc.
No problems on the MacBook Pro, also running Firefox 14.0.1The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Problem with my Mac running mountain lion not connecting to server
Hi there,
I have a problem connecting to the HDD shared on my local network. As far as I understand this might be a Mountain Lion (10.8.4) problem, because all my other devices can connect to it (even my iphone throught an app called FileExplorer).
I read that it might be related to a Samba problem, but I tried to install SMBUp and I still cannot connect to my HDD. Whenever I try to connect to it via the Cmd+K it says "The version of this server is not supported". Please help me this is blowing my mind. Also, it's a shame that everything but my main machine can connect to my HDD (PCs, Android, iOS are all fine).
Thanks in advance.Sorry for the delay, but I've been quite busy in the recent period. Unfortunately, the solution you linked me doesn't seem to be working. Any other idea?
BTW: I've upgraded to Mavericks -
I have a new I Mac running lion 10.7. When waking the computer from sleep, all I get is a blue screen. I have to restart the computer.
Did you not bring all your important data over from your old computer? Do you have a backup of the iTunes library that you can restore? If not, then its not to late, just more work that it should be.
You should be able to:
Backup the device to the new installation
Transfer your purchases into a newly authorized library
Recover any other media using third party tools as suggested in this post from forum regular Zevoneer
Restore the device from the backup
This process should switch the association of the device to the new library, preserving the data and settings in your apps.
May also be prudent to attempt a backup to iCloud directly from the device before you start... Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup > On. It won't save any media but it would preserve the general account settings and documents in case anything goes wrong while you are trying to extract your other data.
When you get it all fixed, make a backup!

How do I hook up an Apple fsax modem on my Mac running Mountain Lion and working via wifi?
Do you need to be using a dial-up connection to make an Apple Fax Modem work with Mountain Lion? I'm having trouble setting up a new fax modem with my wifi system.
Apple Fax Modems don't work with Lion or Mountain Lion. They relied on a partial software solution that was built into earlier versions of OSX. You need what is known as a full contoller version USB modem, one that doesn't rely on partial OSX software.
See: http://www.sustworks.com/pa_guide/compatibleModems.html

Is it possible to use the ipad to access a mac mini running mountain lion and back to my mac?
Is it possible to access a mac running mountain lion using Back to my Mac?
To my knowledge the iPod can only be used as a secondary monitor since you have to boot up the Mac and turn on the secondary display. You would still need a KB and pointing device for the Mac
However, you can log into the Mini from an iOS device like an iPad using app like LogMeIn, GoTo MyPC or TeamViewer on both the Mac and the iPad. You use the touch screen on the iPad for all control of the Mac.
As you said,that would be tedious for a lot of typing but you could use a BT keyboard for the iPad. -
HT201250 New Mac w/ Mountain Lion, backup is Snow Leopard
I backed up all files from my old snow leopard OS, this notebook was stolen, My new MAC has Mountain Lion, will I be able to just select a restore point
in Time Machine or will I have to do it manually. I don't know enough to know the difference in the two OSx's.Darwindog wrote:
I read that Apple has loosened their licensing restrictions on older MAC OS versions like Snow Leopard. This would allow you to run Snow Leopard on a new MAC running Mountain Lion by using a program like Fusion or Parallels to create a virtual machine. Does anyone know if this is true?
I would like to upgrade to a new MAC but can't. Some of the software that I use withthe company I work for is PPC based and there will not be updates for at least another year.
It was a common Urban Myth that Apple's Snow Leopard EULA prohibited its virtualization in Lion or Mt. Lion. This myth has been debunked over the last year or so.
Hence, Apple did not necessarily relax any "licensing restrictions" that did not exist in the first place in this regard.
As I noted to you in your other thread:

My brand new Mac Pro running Mountain Lion crashes when installing updates or new software.
My brand new Mac Pro running Mountain Lion crashes and re-boots when installing updates or new software. I can only perform these operations while in the safe boot mode. I have reloaded OSX twice. Does not solve the problem. The machine is brand new. It replaced a previous MacPro that would not support the new Mountain Lion. When my new machine came in. I swaped the dirve out of my old unit into the new and ran the new Lion update. The machine has had this aforementioned problem since that time. Also, I had the Legacy version of File Vault running on the old machine/drive, which I also turned off(thinking that was the problem) but that did not fix the problem either.
