No Facetime after Mountain Lion Install

Just installed Mountain Lion and Facetime won't connect.  Error message "Could not sign in.  Please check your network connection and try again."
What's going on?

This message was posted on the wrong thread.  I offer it hear in case it might help somone having problems with FaceTime.
There are so many suggestions offered to solve the FaceTime problem that I thought I would add my current experience.  I took my iMac to the apple store and they found no solution.  Their last effort was to reinstall Mountain Lion (ML).  It didn't solve the problem.  I opened a case with apple and worked with them for about two hours on the phone to explore possible solutions.  Finally a system dump of the internal data was taken after an attempt to sign on to FaceTime.  The data was sent to Apple and a team analyzed it.  They discovered that my computer's logic board had not been serialized.  Back to the Apple store where they serialized the logic board.  FaceTime now works.  This may not be a solution for you but it might lead to other ideas.  Merry Christmas.

  • Problem with mail after mountain lion install

    Mail has become sluggish to locking up after Mountain Lion install.  I get the color wheel each time I start typing in an address to send an email.  I also get the wheel when i am typing an address or name in any web page in Safari.  Is this a Mail Problem or an Address Book problem?

    It sounds like your computer needs to be cleaned up. Have your repaired permissions or cleared caches since you got the computer. Often times when upgrading operating systems permissions get screwed up and it causes issues.  Go to disk utility in your "other" folder in applications.  Select disk utility, then on the left hand side choose Mac HD then click REPAIR permissions in the center section. Wait for it to finish, restart your computer, then test.

    Hi There,

  • After Mountain Lion install, my iMac powers off instead of just going to sleep. Help? Thanks.

    After I installed Mountain Lion on my 2009 iMac, it will power off after I don't use it a while. It used to just go to sleep, I'd shake the mouse, and it would come back up. Now it powers off and I have to power it back up every time. 
    My Macbook has NOT had this problem since Mountain Lion install. It is fine.

    Do these resets to clear errant commands:
    SMC RESET
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    The 5 second timing is important to a successful reset.
    PRAM RESET
    Zap the PRAM
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.

  • Trackpad issues after mountain lion install

    Since my Mountain Lion install, the trackpad on my 15" MBP will track, but won't select anything.  Hot corners aren't working, the dock won't appear, etc.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    Got similar issues, no notifications and no switching between full screen apps (4fingerswipe). Some swipe features work, no secondary click in bottsom corners...Trackpad operational under Mountain Lion a total nuisance compared to Snow Leopard...PLease Apple, show some respect again to your faithfull customers and show some response!

  • Thunderbolt is not working after Mountain Lion installed

    I'm putting this discussion again because the problem didn't solve like I thought !
    As you can see from the title that I have a problem already after I installed the new OS X Mountain Lion. I got my thunderbolt to Hdmi adabtor connected to an LCD TV and it was working great with snow lepord. But after the I installed Mountain Lion. it won't even recognize that there is something connected and I don't see the options in my System Prefrences> Diplays like before.
    I already run software update and it's all up to date and also done a PRAM reset and nothing changed.
    It only ok for a couple of min. if I restarted it and without the sound working from the LCD TV.
    Please I need help here.

    Well I would have hit repair. This might be stemming from a deeper issue with the installation. I've never seen that dialogue box before, and if ignoring it and booting normally worked for you then I say you did the right thing.
    however
    I would, go to disk utility and then select your boot drive and verify and repair disks and permissions.
    if anything else WEIRD should occur, you may want to go to the recovery partition of ML (cmd+R while hearing the boot chime) and reinstalling ML. That dialogue box you mentioned is strange and should be noted. A reinstall will probably fix whatever issue comes up.

  • Iphoto disconnected after mountain lion install

    After installing mountain lion can't access my iphoto library?
    Error message claims" iphoto quit unexpectedly"?

    you either need to run software update once more (there was a major update for a lot of iLife apps when ML came out for support with ML).
    or you need to reinstall ML from the recovery partition after running disk utility and verifing and repairing disks and permissions.
    hold CMD R to get into the recovery partition during the boot chime.

  • Premiere CS6 crashing on start up after Mountain Lion install.

    Hi everyone, new to the forum.  I'm on a mid-2010 Macbook Pro i5 8GB RAM using the Creative Cloud, mainly Premiere Pro CS6.  So, last week installed Mountain Lion (probably a mistake) after I read that there were no issues with Premiere.  Well, since then whenever I launch CS6 the purple Premiere art pops up and I get a spinning beach ball every single time and the app doesn't respond.  Worked perfectly before ML install.  I have called Adobe 3 times...no help.  I have done clean installs, cleared preferences, tried on new admin users.  No luck.  I'm not super tech, if anyone has any words of wisdom, I would love that.  Thank you all.  Let me know if you need nore info on the issue.

    Did this issue ever get resolved for you?

  • Kernal Panic after mountain lion install

    Tried various solutions on fixing this and its just become annoying and inconvient. Tried doing the Pram reset. Tried reinstalling mountain lion 3 times. This is just crazy. Every time I buy a new OS its always problems. I can't stand it. Next time I'm going to wait a few months before getting another OS from apple. This panic happens on a restart and when I shut down. Also happens to freeze after I close the laptop while its on and refuses to wake up.

    Those files "hack" OS X in order to start it on any PCs. They were designed for OS X Lion but they don't work with Mountain Lion, and that's why you are getting kernel panics.
    As you have a Mac, OS X won't be damaged and it will start properly after deleting them. Your log clearly shows that the SMC and CPU power management extensions are causing the kernel panics, and you also have third-party extensions that belongs to SMC and CPU power management for PCs, so that's the problem

  • Cannot select buttons in FileMaker after Mountain Lion Install

    Because the installer claimed I'd tinkered with my partitions (I haven't, unless accessing BootCamp from Parallels counts), I had to do a clean install of Mountain Lion. That in itself was a pain because I could not successfully create an installer on a USB flash disk after several attempts. I had to boot over the internet. After successfully creating a virgin 10.8 system, I restored my system from Time Machine, last backup a few minutes before I started this process.
    None of my mail configuration carried over -- rules, signatures, smart folders all lost. Also lost SignatureProfiles preferences, including the registration code. Those are all things I can painfully recreate. However, I am unable to use FileMaker Pro. When it opens, I am unable to select buttons in the format bar, buttons in my applications, and can't resize the window. I have removed ~/Library/Preferences/*trackpad* and *mouse* to no avail. Removed ~/Library/Preferences/*FileMaker* files (all the way back to FileMaker 5). To no avail.
    I created a new account on my system and FileMaker runs fine.
    Which preference file is corrupt?

    Okay, I logged out, logged in as root, copied all of top root level directories into the new account and changed their ownership appropriately. FileMaker works. I deleted my account, and renamed the new account using apple method to my old account name, and FileMaker fails. Renamed it again to a different name, and it works. I guess 'sbradley' is an invalid account name
    Still wishing I could recover my rules and signatures.

  • After Mountain-Lion-Install no App Store Access

    After having installed Mountain Lion I can't access the App Store anymore. It speaks of an inexistant internet connection, altough I am able to surf with Safari. Some pages like outlook.com and the iTunes store are defectively loaded (layout is not shown correctly). Also Safari has certificate problems (but I suppose this is due to missing updates). May there be a connection to an older problem I have? From time to time I have to restart the wifi connection because of "having passed the time limit".
    I have already tried to fix the problem by repairing the permissions and resetting Safari and by changing DNS-Server to 8.8.4.4. and 8.8.8.8.
    Thank you very much

    Problem fixed: it was a certificate problem.

  • After Mountain Lion install, internet videos stop playing back after only a few seconds. Multiple browsers are affected.

    After I installed Mountain Lion, videos streamed from the internet will stop playback after a few seconds of play. Multiple browsers are being affected.

    I have this same problem, and I did a clean installation.
    Hardware:
    2009 MacBoook Pro 17" 3.06 C2D; 4 GB RAM, 256 Apple SSD
    While loading the browser is quick starting up, I notice a delay to open any website, like it's preloading the entire page versus just loading.  Safari seems like it's a bit sluggish overall with loading web pages.
    Did a internet speed test and my U/D rates are the same after the upgrade.
