Problem 1 - Mountain Lion not unable to Eject Time Capsule

I have an early 2011 Macbook Air upgraded to Mountain Lion on day of release.
I also have a late 2011 3TB Time Capsule as a network storage device.
Once I have enabled Wi-Fi and connected to my Time Capsule then the icon appears on the desktop.
When I two finger click and go to select Eject Drive the drive never disconnects (with or without wifi remaining enabled). 
Please note, dragging the Time Capsule icon to the trashcan to eject works.
This subsequently leads to my problem 2 (another question)
Anybody else experienced this?
Anybody identify a solution for me?

So after some checks and tests myself,
1.  If I Turn Wi-fi off first then the Time Capsule can be ejected via the pop-up "Connection Interrupted".
2.  If I Try to eject it then Wi-fi on or off does not close the connection OR give the pop-up to say "connection interrupted".
3.  If draging the icon to the trash can (to eject) then it works.

  • How comes that, having everybody issues with infinitely long backups (combining mountain lion on new imac and time capsule) apple doesn't fix it? (my time machine forecasts not less than 6/8 days to complete the first one, 350 gig transferred from a pc,).

    Within 6 days someone will switch off the machine, or power will go off, or some error will occur. I will have a backup when I'll have to replace this new Imac....

    Always do the first backup at least over ethernet.. even if you have to use the TC in complete isolation from the network. You should be able to do that backup in about 6-8hours, ie overnight.
    The setup is easy.. in complete isolation.. if you have no ethernet from the imac.. just use a short patch lead.. plug LAN port of the TC into the iMac. Turn off wireless in the imac. Make sure the airport utiity can locate the TC, if not press reset on the TC and it will go back to router mode.. ignore all the errors .. just locate the hard disk is working.. start up TM and point it to the TC.. do the backup.
    Once this backup is done.. the hourly incrementals over wireless should take just a couple of minutes. Although if you are manipulating very large files then you may need to consider getting better connection, either using 5ghz wireless which is much faster but might need extender.. or ethernet or ethernet over power type adapters.

  • I have big problems with mountain lion. you can not have a boot disk system I resulted in the need to re-download the os from scratch impiegandoci 8 hours, it is outrageous even with windows 95.

    I have big problems with mountain lion. you can not have a boot disk system I resulted in the need to re-download the os from scratch impiegandoci 8 hours, it is outrageous even with windows 95.
    at least that the operator has confirmed to me that he called me. I also have problems with either the start of the mac with the power off. I can not understand if it crashes or is just very very slow.
    Finally, I have a problem with the external hard disck. I often said to have been ejected incorrectly (not true) and I start to restore the startup recovery disk because disk utility is ineffective from the normal operating system .. is a shocking thing, but how you reduced. in four years it had never happened. seem to have windows or worse. Wake up.
    I am an Italian, alas, and then I would like an answer to my language because my € are the same as German French or English.

    You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
    Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
    If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
    Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
    Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
    To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)].

  • Possible problem downloading Mountain Lion

    It appears that a few people have had problems downloading Mountain Lion. Search for title
    mountain lion not downloading
    Since Apple does not provide a DVD disk or any other media for installing the operating system, I am wondering if there is some sort of Checksum that comes with the downloaded file like a PGP signature or MD5 hash? Because if pepople are having problems downloading the Mountain Lion OS that means there is a possibility of corruption of the software after downloading.
    How can you confirm the software is completely intact and valid?

    One of a few exaples show is a Apple Discussion post called
    Mountain Lion Download Lost
    There are others and I would have to wonder with the time it would take to download the Operating system (and in some cases cost) why is there no physical media?

  • Some serious problems with Mountain Lion

    Hi everyone,
    I upgraded my mid 2010 15" MBP to Mountain Lion 2 days ago, and I have some serious problems with my machine now.
    - Wifi problem: like many members 's machines, mine has problem to connect to the wifi after sleep or restarting, I had to wait 10 to 15 minutes for it to connected to my home network. Anh I tried to remove all of my settings in System Preferences/Network and added new connection. And now it cant connect to wifi anymore. I'm writing this article while sitting on the floor with my Ethernet cable plugged in my MBP. I connected to internet through a DSL modem and a Airport Extreme as a bridge and Access Point. I also tried to set up all of my network device but my MBP can't connect to the wifi still.
    - Keyboard problem with Pages: I was very happy with the new iCloud syncing for Pages documents but after 5 minutes, I met a big problem with Mountain Lion. Whenever I type in Pages with Vietnames Keyboard( Mac OS X built in or from another developer: http://www.trankynam.com/gotv/ ), Pages stops working immediately. I can still drag the Pages's window around but can't type or do any editing. After that I have to force quit pages. It is really stupid that I'm writing a book in Pages and now I have to stop my working till apple fixes this ridiculous bug. I tried German Keyboard as well and Pages worked flawlessly. Do you hate Vietnamese, Apple?
    - Messages problem: Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I couln't send or receive any messages. It worked perfectly in Messages beta.
    Does anyone have the same problems like me? Any solution such as how to reinstall Messages(I googled but found nothing)
    Apple, please test your software more before release it. I feel like I have no computer at the moment because I can't work, can't surfing the web wirelessly and can't communicate with my friends.

    HI,
    - Messages problem: Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I couldn't send or receive any messages. It worked perfectly in Messages beta.
    Does anyone have the same problems like me? Any solution such as how to reinstall Messages(I googled but found nothing)
    What Messages to what type of Buddies or Contacts ?
    This
    I found out that the problem with my wifi was my MBP received automatically a ridiculous IP such as 169.254.170.0 instead of 192.168.1.4 as it should be.
    WIll be part of the Issue as will be DNS issues.
    mDNSresponder crashed with Handsoff! v1.5.3. After upgrading Handsoff! to v2.0.2, it works again.
    In this case mDNSresponder also being stopped will stop DNS working.
    I would guess if you have resolved these that you can Chat to people again.

  • When submitting a target survey I get back an error.... I think this may be a safari problem or mountain lion problem as I used to be able to submit surveys on their survey site.

    When submitting a target survey I get back an error.... I think this may be a safari problem or mountain lion problem as I used to be able to submit surveys on their survey site.  This problem occurs if I use my MacBook Pro or my iPad.  I want try  to win a 5000 gift card and can't win if I can't submit the survey.  It lets me fill out everything and only after I hit submit I receive an error.  Target says it's not their problem.  I curious to know if anyone else has tried and receive back an error after hitting the submit button.

    Thanks.....I'll try that the next time I get a new receipt from target.  My old receipts are older than 72 hours now so I can't try Firefox with them.  I appreciate the response and will certainly try this and post a reply if I was successful in submitting the target survey.

  • OpenCL Problem in Mountain Lion

    Hello, I'm a user from Hong Kong and I've a huge problem about Photoshop.
    I've a 15" MacBook Pro (Graphic Card is 6490M) and installed Mountain Lion and Photoshop CS6. When I Check my System Info in Photoshop, it show the OpenCL is unavailable just like this:
    Then I open the Performance tab in Preferences, and see that I cannot enable OpenCL and the GPU Acceleration like this:
    Howcome? Is the problem of Mountain Lion or Photoshop? How can I slove the problem???
    Thx for your help and sorry that my english is not good enough

    Either your GPU isn't up to it, or the driver isn't up to it.
    Mobile parts are usually more limited, and Apple's 10.8 drivers aren't exactly the best either.

    I get no audio from my firewire audio interface (Focusrite Saffire Pro 24 DSP) upon installing Mountain Lion on my iMac (Summer 2009) today. As FiddleMonster said, so far, no firewire audio is coming out. Tried to restart, plug cable off and then on again... Not working.

  • Is Samba a problem in Mountain Lion at the mo

    Hi
    A few weeks ago I put a question about Samba ......I didn't have a response that could help or solve my problem ( as is life sometimes! ).
    It would seem from what I am reading on the net that there are many problems with Samba in Mountain Lion.
    I can't browse to my Mountain Lion macs from my Windows 7 pc and it's proving a bit of a nightmare....it means I can't back the macs up from my pc ( or from any pc) as I can't browse to their drives. I'm having to go up to the macs and manually back them up everyweek which isn't so elegant.
    Are other people able to browse to their macs in Mountian Lion from their pcs?s
    I can browse from mac to mac using Samba......but I don't know where to look or what to try next.
    Thanks for your advice.

  • Wlan problem unter mountain lion

    Hallo habe mich spät zum Upgrade auf mountain lion entschieden.
    Seitdem bricht die Verbindung zum Wlan (router entweder Telekom oder Time Capsule) ständig ab.
    IPad und IPhone haben diese Probleme nicht.
    Das ist sehr ärgerlich. In Verschiedenen Foren wird das Problem scheinbar schon länger diskutiert.
    Gibt es eine finale Lösung????

  • Updated to Mountain Lion, not I only receive emails sporadically. Thoughts?

    Updated to Mountain Lion, not I only receive emails sporadically. Thoughts?

    Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
    Isolating an issue by using another user account
    If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Any news about Mountain Lion not closing open files / folders on smb server shares?

    Hey Apple, anyone listening?
    Are there any new about this issue, where Mac clients cannot move/edit/rename each others files and folders on a smb server share? We are a graphics work group in an otherwise Windows-centered enterprise. We have mac clients with OS X 10.5.8, 10.6.8, and recently 10.8.5. None of the older clients can work with files or folders created by the new machine, meaning that InDesign files will open read only, files and folders cannot be moved or renamed. This is absolutely critical in a flexible work environment, where any graphics designer must be able to jump into any other project on short notice.
    As mentioned in other threads around the web, this seems to be a problem not with file permissions but with the finder not releasing/closing files and folders correctly when not actually in use. (a known issue is the fact, that i.e. Acrobat pdf must not be viewed in column views preview, if anyone else wants to overwrite that file, but this issue here goes much further). We urgently need a fix for that!
    I'm really desparate about this topic, since the IT-department is already reluctant to offer mac support and to look into these problems; if there is no solution to this, we will be switched to windows workstations by the end of the year ... Apple, do you want that? We surely don't!
    A frustrated user

    Hi,
    thanks for your answer. Does that mean, that there is a solution to this on the server side?  Is this ACL stuff a matter of setting up the server correctly, rather than a problem with mountain lion's networking?
    If i could be sure about this, I would approach our IT department... (the are just waiting for some Mac User pestering them ) ...

    Hi folks,
    I tried downloading the latest OS X Mountain Lion and [after a long time... I have a slow connection] I got an error message ... We could not complete your purchase The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed.
    Everytime I retry or continue the download I just keep getting the same error message!!!
    What can I do to get my product?

    The only thing that worked for me was to boot in safe mode.
    Power down.  Then press power button and hold 'shift' key until grey screen with progress bar appears... Once booted and logged in just open safari and browse to applestore. 
    No trouble at all once I did this.
    Reminder: create full backup before you upgrade OS
    Hope it helps.
