  • How can I find Lion to download it to my Mac Boook/  It is the white plastic model and is now running Snow Leopard.  It has 4 GB of Ram but this computer is not compatible with MOuntain Lion.  I cannot find Lion anywhere.

    How can I find Lion to download it to my Mac Book?  It has Snow Leopard and 4GB RAM but it the white plastic model and is not compatible with Mountain Lion.  I have been told by the Genius Bar that it will handle Lion.

    That underpowered model is better left on 10.6.8 for performance reasons, also the fact that it's dated and 10.7 will likely require you to buy alll new software to replace the PPC based software your currently using.
    If you insist, then call Apple via phone and they will sell you 10.7 Lion and provide a link to download it.
    My 2¢ is to save up for a new machine, as that one is about to kick the bucket, they only last about 4.5 years or so depending upon use/enviroment.
    If your having problems with 10.6.8, perhaps some of the links here can assist, 10.6 is faster than 10.7 in fresh install tests.

  • Is my mac pro compatible with mountain lion?

    Is my mac pro compatible with mountain lion/ 2 x 2.66 Ghz Dual core processors?
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    And FBDIMMs which use to cost $300+ for 8GB can now be had for... 2 x $34.
    I paid $300 2 x 512MB August 2006,, then 2 x 1GB $400 March '07
    So as long as you only need 16GB you are safe, it is when you need 4GB, or the rare 8GB FBDIMM and 32GB or more, that yes, time to part ways and get a system that supports cheaper DDR3.
    Except, right now, 10.8.2 'broke' support for more than 64GB and there were people depending on and using 96GB.  Or that more than 48GB also 'broke' the Apple Pro RAID card; a card that still does not support 3TB drives. 10.8.2 does though provide support for more current Nvidia cards (10.7.4 also showed support just not for GTX 6xx series). 3rd party graphic support has always been a weakness, until now.
    Apple Mac Pro is a workstation. Except when it is not. It is still not clear how they missed these things.
    What 32-bit EFI won't get you is 64-bit kernel mode and abilty to fully use more powerful graphic cards or memory addresses for a single process beyond 4GB or graphic card support with more than 2GB (and 2GB use to always fail in OS X in the past).

  • Is Quicken 2005 compatible with Mountain Lion

    No, it's not, because it requires Rosetta. Quicken Mac 2007 is compatible.

  • Is CS 5 compatible with Mountain Lion OS?

    Is CS 5 compatible with Mountain Lion OS?

    Yes, we can confirm that Audition CS6 is compliant with Mountain Lion (Mac OS 10.8) and their are currently no known issues between the product and the new OS.
    While Audition CS5.5 is not the latest version of Audition, I can also confirm that it appears to work just fine as well.
    With the minimal backend architectural changes made to the new Mac OS (between Lion and Mountain Lion), we see no reason for users to be concerned.
    I hope that helps.
    Thanks,

    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.

  • Express 802.11n model A1264 not compatible with Mountain Lion?

    I have an airport Express 802.11n model A1264.  I have been using  it with Mountain Lion for a couple of months.  Some problems but it worked.  Last nite it stopped. - flashing orange light.  I am using Airport Utility version 6.1.  The helpful? lady at apple support said that model of Airport Express (Gen 1 ) was not compatable with Mountain Lion and I need to get a Generation 2 Airport Express.  Is there any other solution? 

    Hardware failure is a possibility but your Express is most certainly compatible with your version of Mac OS X.

    ...  I had pushed in the reset button on the AU Express -
    To properly reset it to factory defaults requires that you depress its reset button continuously for about five seconds - long enough for the LED to flash rapidly, then release it.
    After this the Express will create an open wireless network called "Apple Network nnnnnn" where nnnnnn = a set of characters unique to your Express.
    Connect to that network by selecting it in the menu.
    Launch AirPort Utility. It should find the Express.
    If you are still having trouble unplug the Express and plug in to an electrical outlet near your iMac. Not only does this make it easier to perform another "hard reset" should you need to, it minimizes the potential for wireless interference to prevent communication. There is no need to have it connected to your modem as you configure it.
    Only after doing all this should you begin to suspect the Express has simply failed. In that case bring it back to Apple for a final determination.
    Don't let them tell you it is not compatible with Mountain Lion because I use the exact same one all the time. Even its preceding model is compatible.

    No, it's not compatible with Mountain Lion. See:
    Macs that will support OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion
    As usual, the newer the Mac the better:
    MacBook Pro – 13″ from mid 2009 or later, 15″ from late 2007 and newer, 17″ from late 2007 and newer
    MacBook Air – late 2008 and newer
    iMac – models from mid 2007 and newer
    MacBook – 13″ aluminum from 2008, 13″ from 2009 and newer
    Mac Mini – early 2009 and newer
    Mac Pro – early 2008 models and newer
    XServe – early 2009 models and newer
    Macs that are NOT expected to support OS X Mountain Lion
    Older Macs and those with weaker GPU’s will likely be left behind:
    Anything with an Intel GMA 950 or x3100 integrated graphics card
    Anything with an ATI Radeon X1600
    MacBook models released prior to 2008
    Mac Mini released prior to 2007
    iMac models released prior to 2007
    Original MacBook Air
