Just installed Mountain Lion Latest Version on MacBook Pro Mid 2010
I want to make sure, that after i spend so much money on a high end mac book pro in December of 2010, that now i can't even use the feature of apple tv mirror because my lap top has to be early 2011 or later. Please confirm Apple Gurus so that i can be sure that im didn't do anything wrong. I have the latest Apple Tv but my MacBook Pro 17 was purchased in dec. 2010. which makes it a macbook pro mid 2010. If the case is i can't utilize the mirror for my desktop to show in apple tv, then why does it work with itunes and every other device? so weird, plus i need to make sure i've done all the troubleshooting possible so then i go ahead to the next step and buy the USB to HDMI Cable that way i can do it the old way since my mac book pro high end is now considered old. So dissapointed.
Look at this link. It indicates that a third party application will allow you to use it:

Help - I just installed Mountain Lion and now my MacBook Pro crashes all the time
Hi everyone. I've recently installed Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro and now it randomly crashes. I tried finding the pattern (maybe when I open a specific app, or go through a series of steps) but nothing, it just happens, and it feels random.
Here's the latest panic report I got:

Thanks!Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pros - the bad NVIDIA GPU
If you're having frequent kernel panics with your 15" mid-2010, or intermittent screen problems, the problem is, more than likely, the faulty NVIDIA GPU found in a number of those machines.
Here's just a sample of a kernel panic log that points to the faulty NVIDIA card:

Here's the "official" Apple take on the issue - but the very real kernel panics need not be preceded by 'Intermittent black screen or loss of video'... in fact, you might not experience any video problems at all. Although video problems can certainly be a portent of things to come…
So what can you do? Print out a copy of your kernel panic and a copy of the Knowledge Base article and take them, along with your machine, to your local Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider. They should be more than willing to install a new logic board at no cost. I have no idea why this faulty GPU is making the headline here on the MacBook Pro forum so often now - could it be because Mountain Lion is just bringing the issue to a head more readily? I don't know - I only know that we're seeing more and more of these kernel panics of late.
Good luck,

While trying to instal Mountain Lion OS on my macbook pro, I got the error message that my HD was damaged and it reverted to my Lion OS. Why does this happen? I bought the OS online through the app store.
The Mountain Lion installer looks at your internal drive to make certain that it's error-free before continuing installation. You should have an application named "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" in your Applications folder now so you shouldn't have to download it again. Do this...
Boot to your Lion recovery partition by holding down both the Command and the R keys while booting. Open Disk Utility from the Recovery partition and select your hard drive (usually named "Macintosh HD" unless you've renamed it) and click on Verify Disk. If you come up with any errors, click on Repair Disk. At the end of the cycle you will get a message that the disk was successfully repaired or a message that the hard drive could not be repaired.
If you're able to repair the disk, just reboot as normal and open the "Install OS X Mountain Lion.app" and the installation will proceed. If Disk Utility was unable to repair the disk, you need to get to your local Apple Store as soon as possible so that they can see if the disk is salvageable or beyond repair.
Good luck,

I was installing mountain lion and now my macbook pro won't start up
I was installing Mountain Lion and i restarted my computer and now it won't boot up.
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
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.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless. -
Installing windows 8 through bootcamp on macbook pro mid 2010
i know there are a lot of posts about this but i've not seen anything to help me. i have a mid 2010 macbook pro with maverick installed and completely updated. i'm want to try bootcamp to install windows for my database class that is using microsoft office and access (i'm getting the software for free from school and it is not the mac friendly versions). i can use virtual box but i really want to try boot camp just because i've not used it before.
i open up boot camp and follow the prompts of downloading windows support from apple and install windows 7 to my 32gb flash drive (which is fat formated). the message i get when doing anything is that this software is not on the support software server.
i have downloaded the bootcamp 5.0 support software directly from apple's website and it is unzipped on my flash drive. i also already have windows 8 iso ( i also have windows 7 if i can't do 8). even though i already have the support and os iso on my flash drive bootcamp still wants to down load them. can i bypass this step and move on? do i need to have a partition on my hard drive already made.
basically i need some to see what else i need to do to prepare my system and/or steps i have missed to install windows 8. thanks for any assistance you can give me.I DOWNLOAD BOOT CAMP 5 THEN INSTALL WINDOWS 8 PRO.
AND I UNZIPPED ON MY FLESH DRIVE TO HAVE DRIVERS READY.
BUT THE WINDOWS DOESN'T EXCEPT PRODUCT KEY. -
Just installed Mountain Lion now Micro Trend isn't working?
I just installed Mountian Lion successfully on my Macbook Pro today and now on the desktop page at the top the Micro Trend icon is faded. When I move the mouse on it it just shows the spinning rainbow like it is loading. I also tried to open it from the search bar and it does not open. Does anyone know how I could fix this? Thank you.
Bet you upgraded from Snow Leopard. The scanner software you have installed is likely PPC but could run in Snow Leopard, which was the last version of Mac OS X that supported it, rather than just Intel software.
I'd suggest going to the Epson website and getting Mountain Lion compatible drivers from their Drivers and Support page. They will be for Intel Macs such as yours. -
Unable to open Bootcamp install of Vista after upgrading MacBook Pro / Mid 2010 to OS Mavericks
Dear Community,
I am unable able to boot the Windows Vista install (via Boot Camp) on my MacBook Pro / mid 2010 after upgrading to OS Maverick.
Any idea about how this problem can be solved (I don't want to purchase Windows 7 and I don't want to purchase a virtual machine)?
Many thanks for your support!
Regards,
PSeguroHello 88,
I haven't resized / modified anything since installing Vista on my System. The problem must have incurred when upgrading from Snow Leopard to Maverick.
by the way:
I (just) found out that Windows Vista is booting (automatically) when I insert my original "Mac OS X Install DVD" / 10.6.3 (or my "Applications Install DVD") before starting the MacBook. It will - hwr - not boot without above DVDs in the tray...

I've just installed Mountain Lion on my Macbook pro and cannot now open Preview.

Any suggestions how I might solve this annoying trait would be most appreciated. Many thanks.

It would be easier to just fix whatever is making your machine slow.
I wrote a little diagnostic program to help show what might be causing these problems. Download EtreCheck from http://www.etresoft.com/download/EtreCheck.zip, run it, and paste the results here.

I just installed Mountain Lion. I'm having an issue on the log in screen.
Hello,
I just installed Mountain Lion 10.8.2 on my iMac. We have four user accouts on the computer and when you first wake the computer where you would normally choose an account and log in the screen is white. When you move the mouse around it leave a little trail of the log in screen until you find your acct and click on it and then it allows you to log in. Its never done that before, at least until I upgraded. This computer was bought right before Lion came out and I didn't upgrade it right away because I wanted to wait and see how everyone else liked it. I finally upgraded last week and aside from this issue it works great and I love the features but it is really annoying. What should I do? Has anyone else had the problem? I upgraded my Macbook and it hasn't had any problems but I only have one acct on it since my wife and kids don't use it. Thanks for the help in advance.Contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine.

Something went wrong with your upgrade.
Back up all data, then reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it.
