Mission control on OsX mountain lion
My mission control on OsX mountain lion does not smoothly zoom out or in when showing all the apps, how do I restore that function?
Apple are revamping support, you'll see something like this - select Apps and Software etc:
...next screen should have Purchases, Billing and Redemption links.

Can't open mission control after installing mountain lion
Mountain Lion is working smoothly for me except that I can't open mission control. I became aware of this because the "hot corners", which I use frequently stopped working for me. Maybe there's a preference file somewhere I can trash? I can't seem to find anything in the library.
I'm having the same issue. Not only the hot corners not work for mission contral, but neither do the keyboard shortcuts. A restart fixes the problem for me, until my iMac (2011) goes to sleep and is woken up again. After that, the mission contral functionality no longer works, and neither does the "show desktop" hot corner functionality.

OSX Mountain Lion "Disk not ejected properly" USB-Finder not responding
Hello,
I just upgraded to OSX Mountain Lion late 2008 macbook pro. Whenever i plug in a USB, it detects it fine. But then when i copy anything to it, it starts but then give the error message "Disk was not ejected properly". After that, my finder hangs and i have to force quit it. And then it doesnt launch unless I do a restart of my computer by pressing and holding the power key because normal restart doesnt work. Happen to anyone? any solution? Thanks!Connect the USB device then right or control click the USB device icon on the Desktop, then click Eject.
Then re connect the device and try copying files. -
Mac OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2
The problem did not exist before this upgrade.
If I open iCloud, or AddressBook, or if assistantd asks for Keychain Access password, I lose all my user's administrative privileges, I can't copy and paste files anymore and everything that comes with that.
The error I am getting is:
The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items.
If I go GetInfo on the file, I can no longer access the lock-unlock feature in bottom right.
My user was migrated from another Mac with OSX Lion, but I've had NO ISSUES until after the latest updates to 10.8.2.
This is really annoying and I do believe it's only because of the update, so any help would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.Back up all data now.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ 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 Terminal in the icon grid.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:20 ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ 2> /dev/null
Be sure to select the whole line by triple-clicking anywhere in it. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar. A text window opens.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select ▹ Restart from the menu bar. -
Mac OSX Mountain Lion crashes randomly.
I've made a clean install of Mac OSX Mountain Lion in my 15" Macbook Pro late 2009 laptop. I kept reciving these intermittent lock ups and then the Macbook pro reboots (while thankfully saving whatever it needed to save before it reboots) by itself with a message saying that the macbook pro had a problem and had to restart automatically. Did any of you have the same problem? and if so do you have a solution to fix it?
I am having the same issue with my late 2010 model macbook pro 15 inch. When the computer restarts, the Problem Report for OS X screen comes up with the following in the Details section (third time this has happened in the last 3 hours or so, any help would be great:

App store wont let me buy OSX Mountain Lion
My MBP is from 2011 and fully capable of runnung osx mountain lion however when i sign into the app atore to buy it i get a pop up saying that the file damaged or invalid. Ive callled apple tech and currently im reinstalling osx lion in hopes it will fix this problem, if not, has anyone else run into this problem or suggestions on what else i could do to fix it?
Many have, the demand right now is so high, there are many incompleted downloads. Wait till the dust settles. And make sure you are prepared:

Have Apple Mac put something in their computers to stop me connecting my AOC N19WB monitor to my Mac Book? (Thats silly of course not!) because their own monitors are on average around £ 800.00 each and people like me have to save a long time just to buy the MacBook and cant afford a Mac monotor as well (not for a long time anyway). Please Apple i only bought this brand new Mac Book 13 (OSX Mountain Lion) because i want to run Logic 9 without problems. If i cant even get it to work with my monitor it doesnt instill me with confidence.
Anyway guys, I have bought the right lead followed all the instructions but when i get to 'dispay' via preferences i dont see the same window that i am looking at on a range of forums and/or utube demonstrations. My window shows 2 options - 'Colour and 'Display'. All others that i have seen in addition show 'Arrangements'. Which i guess is the one that gives you the options as to which extenal monitor you wish to use. Other people have said that you just plug it in and the MacBook finds it for you (not on this machine)! Monitor just displays 'NO SIGNAL' and MaBook 'NO DEVICE DETECTED'.
Please is there any advise out there for me?
Yours Desperately
GrahamHi, your post has been more helpful to me than Telstra's tech. support.
I have installed the generic manager and my 885 modem is now recognised and it appears to connect however there are no ip addresses listed under network preferences. You mention a driver. Is this something else I need to install? Do you have a link? Do I need to manually enter network settings? I should add that I am using Lion 10.7.3 Many thanks for your time -
I want to use icloud to sync w/my new apple tv. bought osx snow leopard and installed it plus upgraded to 2 gigs memory for my
old (2007) macbook. still won't work. I need to get to at least osx 10.7.4 or to osx mountain lion. Tried everything and can't get there.
I'm not a computer whiz...quite a novice. so, if you can help; please speak in layman language....ha ThanksiCloud requires 10.7.2 or later.
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. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
Lion System Requirements
1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
or Xeon processor
2. 2GB of memory
3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
4. 7GB of available space
5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply. -
for some reason osx mountain lion has disappeared from my purchases and now when i want to install mountain lion on another mac with the same apple id it wants to charge me for the program even though i have already purchased it. what do i do?
Open the Mac App Store on the other Mac and in the Quick Links sign into your account. See if the Mountain Lion purchase is among hidden apps in the iCloud area of your account info.

Im not able to use facetime at all. Do some countries have restrictions. Can anyone help me out ? I use a Mac Book pro retina display with OSx Mountain lion.

I have late 2012 edition Macbook Pro, I have a internet connection with does not run smoothly It gets disconnected and reconnects Thus I failed everytime when I update my OSX Mountain Lion to Mavericks in App Store. My friend just bought 2013 end Macbook Air whicch have OSX Mavericks pre installed.
I was hoping if I can create a OS X version in pendrive from his laptop and use that to install and thuss also update OS on my Mountain Lion.
Kindly explain me in detail how to perform this.
I have already taken back up of all files and I am ready to total clean my laptop.
And I want to update to Maverick so I can thus further update to upcoming OS X Yosemite.The Mavericks on the Air is probably machine specific since it came pre-installed, so it wouldn't work on your computer. See if your friend will let you access the App Store, where you can sign in using your Apple ID and download the installer. You can use this free program to copy the installer and update your computer.

I bought OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2 in the App Store. I have accidentally deleted it from my list of purchases.
How can I restore it in case I need to use it again?To recover Mountain Lion to your purchases, open App Store > Featured > Account (under Quick Links) > Show hidden purchases, and show OS X Mountain Lion. Finally, it will appear on Purchases tab

Ever since i downloaded OSX Mountain Lion, Express VPN no longer works properly for me. Even though it says I am connected, webpages refuse to load. However, connection speed is fine when its turned off. I cannot go on many websites without the VPN. My current location is Shanghai, China. OSX Mountain was installed this morning and everything worked fine until then. Is Express VPN not supported? What do i need to do in order to get it working again on my Macbook Pro (early 2011). I want to be able to go on websites such as Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, ect...
Hi,
I am having the same issue listed above on my new Mac Mini i just bought, I also contacted Express VPN support and got the same instructions with exception of the command to run in the utilities terminal. I tried the steps listed, and both commands (posted here, and sent to me directly by Express VPN support), and still unable to connect on my Mac Mini running OS X 10.8.2, but I am able to connect on my iPad and my MacBook which is running Mac OS X 10.6.8. Usually Express VPN is spot on with their customer support, but this is taking longer to get resolved. Here is the steps sent to me
Try doing the following to see if the problem gets resolved:
Please follow the instructions here: https://www.expressvpn.org/support/setting_dns_servers_mac_os
(should still be the same for Lion) and then add the following DNS servers: 8.8.8.8 & 208.67.222.220. After adding the DNS servers, please do the following steps as well:
Note: If you're connecting to your ISP via a PPPoE connection, then set the DNS servers on the PPPoE connection itself and then restart your computer for the DNS settings to take effect.
1. Click on Applications
2. Click on Utilities
3. Click on Terminal
4. Type the following command (without the quotes): "sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder"
5. Press enter and then try reconnecting to the VPN.
If you're still unable to connect, please send us in the latest log files.
Hope this helps. Let us know how it goes. -
I'm unable install mountain lion on my computer. Every time it says "OSX Mountain Lion couldn't be installed, because the disk \ is damaged and can't be repaired. Click restart to restart your computer and try installing again." So I press the only button listed as an option, it restarts, and the same screen comes up again. I can't make mountain lion go away...I've tried many times. What is wrong with my computer? It's stuck like this and I can't even get snow leopard back on there if I wanted to because I can't get away from the same screen. Please help : (
Insert your OS installer disk in the optical drive. Power the Mac down by holding down the power button. Then power back up and hold down the 'c' key so the MBP boots to the installer disk. From Disk Utility you should do a Repair Disk. If DU successfully repairs the disk quit the installer and reboot your Mac. You should update to 10.6.8 prior to upgrading to ML.

Then do your ML upgrade install.
