Odd error message that started after update to Mountain Lion

Ever since updating to Mountain Lion, I get this error message every now and then:
Nothing in particular seems to cause it, and there isn't a server to which I'm trying to connect. My computer is a mid 2010 MacBook Pro
Can someone tell me what this means in the first place and how I can fix the problem?
Thanks!

Open the Time Machine pane in System Preferences. If it shows that Time Machine is ON, click the padlock icon in the lower left corner, if necessary, to unlock it. Scroll to the bottom of the list of backup drives and click Add or Remove Backup Disk. Remove all the disks, then add them back. Quit System Preferences. Test.

Mac doesn't start after updating to Mountain Lion

On sunday I installed Mountain Lion on my 3 year old Mac Pro. Usually I leave the computer on over night for backup. On monday I wanted to check my mail and the computer was out. When trying to start the machine I just heard a harddisk noise but not even a startup chime. I wasn't able to start from DVD because the DVD drive wouldn't eject the tray. Safe boot also didn't work.
The machine is now being sent to the shop where I bought it.
Did the computer have a hardware failure or is Mountain Lion the culprit?
Regards
Trixi

If you can't do anything, it's hardware. Mountain Lion can be corrupted and don't boot, but you can use the computer

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Open the Mac App Store and go to Purchases. Do you see Final Cut Pro X listed?
If so, open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete Final Cut Pro X. Then, go to the Mac App Store and download Final Cut Pro X for free.
If you don't see it in Purchases, see if it's hidden, and if so, unhide it > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928 If it doesn't work, contact with the Mac App Store support > http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact

Line 6 tone port gx doesn't work properly after updating to mountain lion, i'm hearing artefacts, how is that possible?

i am using logic 9 and line 6 toneport gx for recording my guitar. on the previous version of OSx everything worked perfect, but now, after updating to mountain lion, i hear noise after i play something. the settings were: input: toneport, output: coreaudio, 44100, buffer 512. now they are the same and i have noise. i've installed the latest drivers for toneport and changed the buffer settings. when the buffer is large, i can play some seconds without the noise but it appears after 15-20 seconds. and when the buffer is small it appears faster. i assume it has to do something with the buffer size but i don't know for sure. any ideas?

I have the same problem after updating to ML. It's unusuable for recording until it gets sorted out.
I think it's a problem at the Line 6 end. They are aware of it, and are working on some patch/fix to address the strange artifact sounds, so hopefully it will be ready soon.

How do I fix missing and corrupted images after update to Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and Aperture 3.4?

Last night I tried to update to Aperture 3.4 on my MacBook Pro (late 2007 / 3,1 model) and received a message that I needed to install Mountain Lion 10.8.2 first. However, there was no update in my App Store account for 10.8.2. The update for 10.8.2 appeared above the Aperture 3.4 update after I restarted the laptop and rechecked for updates. I proceeded to update Mountain Lion and then Aperture. Everything seemed to be working fine so I opened Aperture 3.4 and watched it update the database without any issues...
Upon examining the small library (of approximately 1200 images totaling about 8 GB) that I leave on this MacBook Pro specifically for testing Aperture updates, I observed the following:
I know anything can happen with stored images, so I try to create redundancy by duplicating important photos on import to an external device, running Time Machine backups and keeping memory cards stored away until I am comfortable with the integrity of the first 2 methods. I am not really worried about this specific Aperture Library on this laptop because it has become my "laboratory" for testing new updates before we apply them to our other computers.
In general, I try not to be too early of an adopter when it comes to software and updates--even though I have had remarkably few problems with Apple updates in the past. However, my success rate with Apple's products and "feature curiosity" occasionally leads me to update early! It is my curiosity that, again, has me wondering: What went wrong and how can I fix this in case it happens to something important in the future?

I still don't know what happened to my test Aperture Library after the update to 3.4...Not only were my previews lost, but so were the original images! Needless to say, I haven't bothered to update the main library on the Mac Pro because I don't want to deal with this level of uncertainty (even with backups in place).

After updating to mountain lion on my mac pro I am unable to connect my g-raid

After updating to mountain lion on my mac pro I am unable to connect my g-raid 1T external hard drive using the firewire connection? I have 4 places to plug the firewire into, none work. All ports used to work with Snow leopard?

Try this:
Boot into Safe Mode then restart normally.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
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
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 then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
If this does not work to fix the problem, then:

TS3276 hi after updating to Mountain Lion, it becomes difficult to quit Mail, always have to Force Quit. And while Mail is on standby, the fan keeps on running full power, the laptop is hot. Why is this happening?

hi after updating to Mountain Lion, it becomes difficult to quit Mail, always have to Force Quit. And while Mail is on standby, the fan keeps on running full power, the laptop is hot. Why is this happening?

If your computer was hot it wasn't asleep - it either didn't go to sleep or it work up after you put it to sleep. I've seen both things happen. First, read this article and follow the instructions.
1) For the next few days/weeks pay attention to the blinking light on the front of your computer when you close the lid. Don't put the computer into your backpack/case until it begins to blink. Wait a minute or so after it starts to blink to make sure it doesn't stop blinking - the signal it woke back up.
2) having followed the above instructions, if you take the computer out and it is hot again or if you take it out and discover it has powered down (you'll know this because when it starts up the battery will be drained and you'll see a progress bar over a ghostly display that will eventually become normal) immediately start the Console program and perform a search on 'sleep' and then 'wake'. This should bring up all the recent log files about sleep state changes (going to sleep and waking up). You should see one for when you put the computer to sleep and put it away and the next one should be just after you got it out. You'll find at least one though that shouldn't be there. That will tell you when the computer work up (when it shouldn't have) and might give a clue as to why.
One of the whys could be a magnet that is making the computer think the lid has been opened.

Option in MAIL to "Add to iPhoto" isn't working after updating to Mountain Lion. Anybody else with this problem or sulution?

Option in MAIL to "Add to iPhoto" isn't working after updating to Mountain Lion. Anybody else with this problem or sulution?

A brief search. Or even glancing at the "more like this" list to the right will show that this is a known problem and there is no current solution. Workaround includ saving to the desktop and importing from there or opening in Quick Look and adding to iPhoto from there

II have downloaded several Apps that state they work with iTouch but they will not install and give error message that I need updated software, while all my updates available are installed on both iTouch and my computer iTunesWhy will Mindtools app not

My iPod Touch will not function with certain updated apps ie MindTools, YP.com, Mint, Ymessenger etc and I get the error message that I need to install updated software to load these apps to my iPod Touch; however, I have double checked and all the software updates have been loaded in obht the iPod touch and my computer. There are no updates availabe; yet the error message on App is a software update is required for App. "was not installed because it requires a newer version of iPod software."
The iPod Touch is using 3.1.3 software and it tells me that is the current and updated software version.

You are correct in that your 1G iPod Touch has all the latest software updates. It can only be updated to version 3.1.
However that Apps you are trying to download and install likely require iOS version 4.0 or later, which is not compatible with your iPod Touch. So either you'll need to buy a newer iPod Touch or find other Apps that are suitable replacements if possible.
Sorry.

Constant Crashing of iPhoto after updating to Mountain Lion and iPhoto 11

I recently updated to Mountain Lion and also to iPhoto 11. iPhoto crashes constantly. From reading other posts I opened while holding the option key and started a new library. It seemed to work then, but now what do I do to get my old photos?

That is a test and it shows that the application is ok. The problem is with your library. Not to data (the library)
So the next thing is to see if we can fix your library. Go back to your main library and post the first 50 lines of the crash log. Also any error message, recent changes, any other observations that might help

Error code 104 while installing updates to mountain lion?

I am trying to perform the latest update of mountain lion, which consists of an iMovie and Java update, and I am recieving an error notice (104), saying that another update is already taking place. Oddly enough, when I went to add/remove programs in my Windows XP Parallels virtual machine, trying to remove a program results in a similar error notice. Does anyone else have this problem or know what's going on?

Exact same thing happened to my 3g. Ive tried reinstalling itunes, downgrading both itunes and iphone software and nothing has worked. My phone is useless now from taking an update. Perfect.
