Is there going to be a firmware upgrade for mountain lion customers that have a Macbook with a soild state drive so we can use the Power Nap feature?

here: http://www.apple.com/osx/whats-new/
"Power Nap requires a Mac notebook with built-in flash storage. May require a firmware update."
We have to wait for the Firmware-Updates. Some are already here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5394
And I am shure, that you will need for Power Nap one of the newer Macs with SSD from 2011 and 2012.

    About TM "Backup Drive is Full"
    Alert TM only deletes older files if they have been deleted from the source and when TM needs space on the backup drive for a new incremental backup. Time Machine "thins" it's backups; hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first of the day; those "daily" backups over 30 days old, except the first of the week. The weeklies are kept as long as there's room.
    So, how long a backup file remains depends on how long it was on your Mac before being deleted, assuming you do at least one backup per day. If it was there for at least 24 hours, it will be kept for at least a month. If it was there for at least a week, it will be kept as long as there's room.
    Note, that on a Time Capsule the sparsebundle grows in size as needed, but doesn't shrink. Thus, from the user's view of the TC it appears that no space has been freed, although there may be space in the sparsebundle.
    Once TM has found it cannot free up enough space for a new backup it reports the disk is full. You can either erase the backup drive and start your backups anew or replace the drive with a larger drive.

    High running Temperature
    Specification
    iMac 27 inch
    Mac OS X  Includes Software Snow Leopard upgraded to Mountain Lion  OS X 10.8.03 (1278)
    251 GB Flash Drive
    2 TB  Sata disk

    Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6970 2048 MB
    Video: Software Final Cut Pro X  10.0.8
    I use the imac mainly for editing Video which when doing so it has reached temperatures of near to 60° C which causes the program to become unstable and needs to be cooled down to operate correctly.
    An Apple technician (by phone) advised me to download an smcfancontrol.  This allows each individual fan to increase speed and also advises the current temperature at °C.  The smcfancontrol has been downloaded but this has not resolved the problem.  By increasing the speed of the fan more heat is generated and creates additional noise. 
    I have since taken the iMac to an Apple Store for examination as suggested by APPLECARE when the fans were found to be working correctly.  An Apple Store technician carried out a test, but not whilst working under the pressure of FINAL CUT PRO when the iMac generates a high temperature.
    The Temperature Specification  for this model is
    Operating Temperature 20 °c to 35°C
    Storage Temp.47°c
    Clearly the temperature my iMac  is operating at is excessive and could cause the computer to break down prematurely.  Has anyone experienced this problem.

    When was the last time you cleaned/vacuumed out all of your iMac's vents, slots and ports.
    You need to do this with the iMac powered down, disconnected from power and everything disconnected.
    Lay your iMac, screen down, on a soft surface, like a heavy towel. Use a small electronics vac, or portable or full size vac with hose and a crevice tool attachment and carefully and slowly vacuum every vent, slot and port on your iMac.
    Then reconnect everything up, power up and download and install iStat Pro. Start working, then report the temps of your iMac after this has been done.
    When using SMCFan Control, it is important not to run the fans at too high an RPM. This doesn't generate heat on its own, but will suck in more dust, lint and dirt into your iMac, and that will be the cause of additonal increases in heat.
    I run my fans in the range of 1400-1600 RPMs. You can go as high as 1800 RPMs but it is important to keep the RPM range below either 1800 or below 2000 RPMs.
    I, also, run a very small desktop fan pointed toward the upper back of my iMac to keep temps down even further.

  • Currently running Lion, want to move to server, do I need to upgrade to Mountain Lion first, or will it come with the Server purchase?

    Currently running Lion, want to move to server, do I need to upgrade to Mountain Lion first, or will it come with the Server purchase?

    No. Mountain Lion Client and Server are two separate purchases and downloads. You will need to upgrade to both.

  • When i upgrade to mountain lion, do i have to back up my computer or will all my stuff still be there after the upgrade?

    Sorry i'm a moron, but i just want to know if i were to upgrade to mountain lion do i need to back-up all of my fles or will it just upgrade and transfer over. when i bought my imac i had it come with apps already installed and i dont want to lose them with an upgrade, but i am SO READY for an upgrade. any help or thoughts would be very appreciated..

    You need to do both; the upgrade won't itself delete the files, but problems are likely to occur during it, and drives can fail.

  • I upgraded to Mountain Lion.Now I have trouble waking it up from sleep mode. Why?

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my MacBook. I am now having trouble waking it up from sleep mode. Does anyone know why or how to wake it up. I try tapping the space bar, trackpad & other keys. Sometimes I think it's never going to wake up.

    I'm not certain but my new MBA 13...when in sleep mode comes back on from a black screen when I simply click on the left mouse button. Also, one time I did a SECURE EMPTY TRASH on files that totalled more than 1GB and it took so long that the fan kept increasing in speed so I pressed on the POWER button and the MBA shut...I was able to boot up with no problem. As a rule, I now only do secured erases for trash bin data totalling 500mb or less...anything above that gets a regular erase (dump).

  • I have a Macbook Pro v10.5.8, is it possible to upgrade to Mountain Lion as thats what the Macstore is telling me to do?

    I'm really not sure what I should be doing, the MacStore keeps prompting me to install Mountain Lion but I dont want to buy it for it not to work on my mac.
    My Mac is a MacBook Pro, bought new in 2008 running version 10.5.8 which is Leopard I think?
    If you could help me with this it would be great as my version isn't supported by hardly anything anymore (Google Chrome for example).
    Thanks

    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)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    Are my applications compatible?
    See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps - App compatibility and feature support for OS X & iOS.
    Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
    See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.

  • If I upgrade to mountain lion do I have to buy the server again

    I had lion server on my mac mini and I upgraded to mountain lion.  Do I have to buy the server seperate?

    Yes, depending on how recently you purchased the mac mini

  • I am currently running Leopard (10.5.8) on my late 2008 iMAC.  I want to upgrade to Mountain Lion and I have been informed that I must first upgrade to Snow Leopard first.  What operating issues could I face after doing this?

    Based on user issues I am reading should I even attempt this.  One of my reasons of wanting to upgrade is to have the ability to upgrade to newer versions of certain programs such as Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop.

    I've upgraded several Mac from 10.5 to 10.6 and all the installations were trouble-free. However, in an abundance of caution, back up before you start upgrading.
    RAM: Most 2008 iMac shipped with 2GB RAM. Your iMac 2008 can use up to 4GB RAM "officially" and up to 6GB with memory modules introduced since Apple's offical specs were engraved in stone. Although 10.6 may do ±OK with 2GB, I suspect Photoshop is glomming on to all you have. Lion10.7 will just barely work with 2GB and 10.8 Mtn Lion may slow to a crawl.
    I get all my RAM upgrades here:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/Intel_Core_2_Duo_PC2-6400
    Never had a problem with any of their RAM and I've been getting it from them for over a decade--and we have 18 Macs in the family!

  • HT1338 Update for Lion denied; Upgrade for Mountain Lion blocked for iMac Intel

    For several months I've been denied an update for OS X 10.7 and other software updates with a statement: "You no longer have permission". How would I lose permission? I haven't found any remedies yet. So I thought I would upgrade to Mountain Lion. I paid the $19.95 through the App store and find that the upgrade is blocked. Has anyone experienced this and found a solution?

    Yup, I'm experiencing the exact same thing. 
    I (and many others) are experiencing the same or similar issues with the 10.8.3 update.
    I've sent an response to Apple but have not yet received anything back (yet).

  • I upgraded to mountain lion and created a new password.  I cannot access pages which I purchased using my old id and password.  what do I do?

    My hard drive crashed and I took it in to an Apple store.  It was fixed and all data was erased including the program pages which I purchased.  I created a new user name and password.  Is there any way to recover Pages or do I have to purchase it again?

    Apps can only be reinstalled for free using the same Apple ID they were originally associated with.
    You need to re purchase Pages using the new Apple ID and password.

  • I am using lion and wonder if I upgrade to mountain lion, will I have to purchase iWorks

    Please, someone address this issue.  I wonder if I upgrade from Lion to Mountain Lion, will my applications work such as iWorks '09.
    I just purchased an iPad 2 and I understand that if I upgrade from Lion to Mountain Lion that I will be able to integrete the two better.
    Thanks so much for any input.  I have spent hours trying to find out this information on FAQs, support questions etc. on Apple.ca and
    frankly, I am getting very frustrated.
    PS - I just purchased the upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion not even a year ago and here I am again.  Don't know what to do.
