  • Facetime not working after Mountain Lion update

    I have a Macbook Pro. After I updated to Mountain Lion (from Lion), Facetime no longer works. I've tried with multiple people, but they aren't receiving my calls and I'm not receiving their calls. In Lion Facetime worked fine, but now it's not working. I also can't get iMessages to work. This is very frustrating, because I was really looking forward to iMessages. My Macbook Pro is still new, I purchased it in the first week August (2012). It came with Lion already installed. It's only 2 months old now. So I know my computer can support all of Mountain Lion's features. By the way, I'm running on Mountain Lion 10.8.2. Any help would be great! Thanks

    Hi,
    The two may be linked as there is a common support app called IMAgent that helps with both Messages and FaceTime.
    Shut down both apps.
    With the Finder as the Front App > use the Go Menu > Hold down ALT key and select Library.
    In the Library find and open th Preferences Folder
    Find com.apple.IMAgent.plist and drag it to the Trash
    Before restarting the App now go to Activity Monitor in Applications/Utilities.
    Find imagent (it  is in lower case).
    Highlight and use the Quit button.
    Now restart the app(s).
    This will recreate the .plist  from defaults.

  • HT1338 early 2012 macbook air clamshell mode not working after mountain lion update

    Can't make 2012 MBA 13" work in clamshell mode after updating to Mountain Lion.  All peripheral devices are connected, as is AC power.  Closing lid causes external monitor to enter sleep mode (presumably, the MBA is going to sleep as well).
    Power settings are set to stay awake when on AC power.
    Thank you.

  • Trackpad click not working after Mountain Lion update

    I updated computer in question, a 2009 MacBook, to Mountain Lion today, and it appeared to work.  It installed, then I was prompted with a log-in screen. I entered my Apple ID and password, but was unable to click go. Easily hit enter instead; this worked.  The next screen, however is a Terms and Conditions one with only the options of "Back" and "Next." I cannot click on either of these.  The mouse moves around perfectly when I use the track pad, but I am unable to choose anything by clicking and therefore cannot get past this screen and to my computer. Any help?? Thank you!

  • SD Card not showing after Mountain Lion Update

    This matter has been discussed for some time now in
    Apple Support Communities > Desktop Computers > iMac (Intel) > Discussions
    SD Card not showing after Mountain lion Update
    Since the update to Mountain Lion, the SD slot does not show up in Finder.
    Someone gave a fix using the killall in Terminal, and that worked only once.  I have not been able to get that fix to work again.
    The only saving grace for me is that my SD Card us is always from my Nikon camera, and Nikon ViewNX 2 software is able to see and read from the card.
    Killall may have worked partially in that I no longer get the error message telling me that I have removed the SD card improperly, and need to dismount it first.
    However, Finder still cannot see it.

    Those are basics ... Been there, done that, first.
    Then you should hava posted all the troubleshooting you already accomplished.
    Does the card show up in System Information? Or is that another one of the "basics" you've already looked into?
    Does it show up in Disk Utility? If so, have you tried formatting it there to determine if it is a formatting problem?

  • I get a blue screen whenever I unlock it and I have to keep turning it off and on to get the slide to unlock to appear

    Have iPod touch and I get a blue screen whenever I unlock it & I have to keep turning it off and on to get the slide to unlock to appear.

    Reset the Device:
    Hold the power button and the home button down until the device shuts off, then power it back on and see if the problem is resolved.
    That won't remove any data. I hope that works.

  • Logic 9.0.0 NOT WORKING with mountain lion update

    Hey guys,
    I was running on snow leopard 10.6.8 prior to this evening and I had logic 9.0.0. I didn't get it from the appstore, though. When I try to open logic it shows the following message:
    I really need to have logic working.  I did do a back up with time machine before I downloaded the update for mountain lion, so it was running on snow leopard and logic was working fine when I backed everything up. But i'd rather not downgrade since I already spent the time and money to upgrade it would just be another hassle, and since this is the first time I've upgraded my mac I don't know how I would upgrade again once I downgraded.
    The most favorable solution would be if I could keep mountain lion but have logic 9 still working. please HELP thanks!

    If you or, any one else is having the same problem, I had the same. It transpired that I hadn't installed Logic in to my applications folder, so I transfered my version of Logic to the aplications folder, downloaded the update from apples website (google it) and I was away.

  • Safari does not work after Mountain Lion download.

    Downloaded Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  Got system up and running.  Safari icon is present, but will not respond--cannot get on line.  Firefox works normally, though.  Tried downloading Safari update--no luck.  Ideas? Solutions?

    What exactly happens when you try to use Safari? Does it launch? Does the menu bar appear? Does a window open? Any error message?

  • IMac not working after mountain lion install

    Upon re-starting my iMac instead of going to log in page it went to re-install mountain lion, reset permissions etc etc page. After re-installing mountain lion I receive error message upon logging in and while using guest account the App Store, iMessage nor iCloud recognize my credentials. I read it may have something to do with moving my home folder off the SSD start up disk and onto the 2TB drive which I did months ago and have had no problems. My question is W.T.F is going on, I've never had problems with my Mac and all of a sudden I can't log in. Can anyone point me towards the solution to the problem ?

    A  couple of questions:
    1. What system version did you upgrade from (Snow Leopard, Lion etc)
    2. Did you use Migration Assistant?
    3. Do you have Time Machine or any other kind of backup?

  • Internet sharing from Wifi to Ethernet is not working after Mountain Lion upgrade

    First I was having trouble just connecting these two, now I can't get the Internet sharing to work. Here's what I am trying to do: I want to share my Macbook Pro's internet connection from it's Wifi to another laptop I have connected via ethernet cable. They will ping each other now. The problem now is that the laptop won't pick up the Internet connection from the Macbook Pro, even though I have it configured exactly as I had in Snow Leopard. Nothing has changed on the laptop from before when it worked fine with Snow Leopard. But now that I updated to Mountain Lion, Internet sharing no longer works no matter what I try. I've been trying to find a solution by to no avail. Could anyone here offering some advice or a solution that will fix my problem? I've been over the basic steps over and over again, so please don't ask me to do something stupid like reboot or check the Sharing settings. They're exactly how they are meant to be, but the thing just won't work.

    Ran a TCPdump on my Macbook Pro. It is recieving the ping requests, but the laptop still isn't getting replies to its pings. So something is wrong in the Macbook's configuration somewhere. I don't know where, though.

  • Aperture 3.2.2 not updaing after Mountain Lion update

    I recently purchased Mountain Lion to upgrade my iMac's OS from Snow Leppard.  After the upgrade, I found that when I selected "Software Updates" from the Apple Menu, the App Store now automatically launces/starts and takes me to the App Updates List.  I select to update all, and the only App which seems to fail to perform it's upgrade is, Aperture.  I currently have Aperture version 3.2.2, but the App store refuses to update the software to the latest update suggesting that I already have this purchase on my computer.  This while true, is stopping the computer from updating to the newest version of Aperture which is 3.3.2.  I have tried restarting the iMac, tried opening Aperture and requesting the update from within the program, but nothing works.  Is anyone else having this problem?  Is there a way to get the software update without having to delete the program and reinstalling it?
