Problemen bij installatie Mountain Lion

Ik krijg bij de installatie van Mountain Lion de onderstaande foutboodschap:
Installatie mislukt.
OSX kan niet worden geinstallerd op de schijf "MacIntosh HD" omdat er geen herstel systeem kan worden aangemaakt.
Ga naar www.apple.com/nl/support/no-recovery voor meer informatie.
Herstart het systeem om terug te gaan naar het "oude" OSX.
Ik kan OS X Mountain Lion niet installeren.
Alles werkt normaal met OS X Lion.
Wat kan/moet ik nu doen om toch Mountain Lion te kunnen installeren?
Wie helpt?

Ik heb eigenlijk de zelfde setup en loop tegen het zelfde probleem aan. (dus ook een bootcamp installatie)
Is dit ooit opgelost?

  • Niet tevreden na update Mountain Lion

    Hoi,
    Ik wil toch wel mijn ervaringen met Mountain Lion delen.
    - na de installatie van ML werkten Imovie, Iphoto, Evernote enz... niet meer. Ik moest ze herinstalleren. Iphoto en Imovie moest ik echter AANKOPEN in de Applestore (gratis geleverd bij mijn Imac van 2011)!! Heb contact gehad met Apple, maar daar spelen ze eerlijk gezegd met mijn voeten.
    - vanmorgen bij het uit zijn slaapstand ontwaken van mijn Imac, was ik niet meer verbonden met Internet. Systeemvoorkeuren gingen niet meer open. Ik heb mijn Mac moeten herstarten. Even opgezocht: ik ben niet de enige die na updating naar ML dit probleem heeft.
    - ook parallels 6.0 werkt niet meer (maar dat wist ik vooraf) en ik oet hiervan een update kopen.
    Wat heeft de update mij dus al gekost:
    - ML + Iphoto +Imovie = 39 Euro
    - Parallels: 49,9 Euro
    = samen bijna 90 Euro + de problemen!!!!
    Een niet tevreden Apple-gebruiker

    Problem partly solved with the aid of a good helpdesk employee at Apple Care. Thanks. Warning: M Audio drivers have a problem with Lion!!!!

  • HD beschadigd na installatiepoging Mountain Lion (..?..)

    Ik heb een MacBook Pro (2010), vandaag poging voor installatie naar Mountain Lion gedaan. Eerst een back-up gemaakt via Time-Machine, back-up gemaakt op externe harddisk (LaCie Big Disk 1TB). Mountain Lion gedownload via de App-store, allemaal goed gegaan.
    Tijdens de installtie van Mountain Lion krijg ik de volgende melding "installatie mislukt Macintosch HD beschadigd en kan niet worden hersteld". Herstarten en gekozen voor schijfhulpprogramma. Als ik het doelvolume (MacIntosch HD) controleer, dan krijg ik de melding "Deze schijf dient te worden hersteld, klik op herstel schijf". Echter kan ik deze optie nu niet selecteren omdat dit volume hetzelfde is als de opstartschijf. In dat geval kun je dit volume niet herstellen. Mijn idee is dus om vanaf de externe hard disk of installatie DVD op te starten, en dan de HD aan te kiezen voor "herstel schijf".
    Als ik de installatie DVD van OS Leopard (10.5) wil gebruiken om op te starten vanaf de DVD, dan komt 'ie in een reboot-loop en blijft de MacBook herstarten. Kan ik überhaupt vanaf Leopard opstarten? Dit is de laatste fysieke installatie-DVD die ik heb, verdere updates (Snow Leopard) heb ik gedaan vanuit de Appstore. Of dien ik de installatie DVD te gebruiken die origineel bij de MacBook geleverd is (10.5.6) ?
    Kies ik voor "opstartschijf selecteren" dan vindt hij alleen de Macintosch HD, en niet de externe LaCie. Kies ik voor de installatie DVD (even er in stoppen en herstarten) dan blijft hij in een loop en continue herstarten. 
    Wat nu?
    Zijn er nog opties om te herstarten vanaf een installatie DVD, of externe HD. Of kan ik vanaf de externe HD de laatste back-up terug plaatsen?

  • Create a bootable Mountain Lion OS X Server installer ?

    With Lion and Lion Server it was possible to create a Lion Server installer just bij adding a ServerVersion.plist file in the folder CoreServices.
    Adding that enabled the normally greyed-out 'Customize'-button that installed the Server.app and ServerEssentails.pkg (nevertheless an internet connection was still required).
    I don't go in details here too much but is a similar procedure possible for Mountain Lion ? To install OS X Server in one row ?

    Not that I am aware of.  If you find a way please disclose.
    I fear that this is no longer possible and the reason I say this is that we have already gotten a few BTO mini Servers arriving with Mountain Lion + Server.app installed.  However, if you erase the drive and perform and Internet restore you no longer get Mountain Lion + Server.app installed.  You get Mountain Lion and then need to go to the App Store, associate the device with an Apple ID which grants you access to Server.app for download.

  • RoundCube Webmail Authenticating against Open Directory on Mountain Lion 10.8.x

    Hello all,
    I've been battling this issue for over a month with no success. Here is what we got:
    Mac Mini Server running Mountain Lion Server 10.8.2 running Calendar, Contacts, Mail and Web services.
    With there being no webmail present I've gone thru the process of installing RoundCube.
    I'm using Postgres as the database.
    When I test the ability to login I get the following error messages in the console.app
    10/12/12 10:13:27.071 AM log[182]: auth: Error: od(andrew,::1): Authentication server failed to complete the requested operation.
    10/12/12 10:13:27.071 AM log[182]: auth: Error: od(andrew,::1): authentication failed for user=andrew, method=DIGEST-MD5
    The first line I find the most interesting but have had no success determinign exactly what it means.
    I'm using open directory to authenticate and it is working perfectly with every other service so I'm led to believe it's an issue between RoundCube and Open Directory.
    ANY help would be appreciated emmensely!

    Sorry about taking so long to get back on here working on this. I've switched over to MySQL. I had a hard time because mysql.sock was located under /tmp/ rather than /var/mysql/ but I fixed that by using the following command:
    sudo ln -s /tmp/mysql.sock /var/mysql/mysql.sock
    Then I reinstalled roundcube. Here is my main.inc.php file:

  • How can I connect my Early 2011" Macbook Pro 13" inch, with a generic Mini Display Port to HDMI connector, to a LG 32LD340 LCD TV, using Mountain Lion 10.8.2?

    I have an Early 2011" macbook pro 13 inch (core i5 2.3ghz 4gb ram 320hdd) with Mountain Lion 10.8.2, and I want to connect it via Mini DP to HDMI connector, and a HDMI cable to a LCD TV LG 32LD340. When I had Lion OS, I had no problems at all.

    If you have an external drive equal to or larger than your internal HD, clone your internal to it with either Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper. Test the clone to make sure it's bootable. Then upgrade either one. Try it out first.

  • TS3147 After installing Mountain Lion, I tried to scan from my Canon MX870 and received the message: "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. A report will be sent to Apple,"

    After installing Mountain Lion, I tried to scan from my Canon MX870 and received the message: "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. A report will be sent to Apple,"  This problem happened right after I installed Mountain Lion. I then downloaded Canon's upgraded software and drivers for the MX 870 and the problem was resolved. Now one month later, the problem has returned.

    Solved problem with original Canon software.  When I downloaded Canon software upgraded for OS X 10.8, I got all by Navigator Ex. Noticed that on Canon's site, the upgraded version is 3.1; my app was 2.1. Upgraded to 3.1 for Nav. Ex, and it works.
    You should still use Image Capture IMHO.  If it was my gear, that's what I would do.  No need to worry about software upgrades.

  • Cannot see my G5 server after upgrading to Mountain Lion.  Help!

    Hi everyone!
    I upgraded to Mountain Lion on my MBP and now my G5 Power PC that I have as a Media Server with all my iTunes movies and music is no longer visible!!  Really frustrating because there is a LOT on there.  It worked fine with Lion!  Am I going to have to downgrade to keep it working?
    Please advise.
    I have an iMac which is running Lion and it sees it fine.  Apple TV sees it too.  Not a connectivity issue.

    can it be something related to wi-fi?  I have read other posts talking about loss of connection using wifi.  I'm connecting my G5 through an airport express which is expanding my wifi generated from my Apple Time Capsule. It is quite difficult for me to relocate the server close to the Time Capsule and vice versa but if it works, at least that would be something.  It was working with Lion about 3 months ago - showing up in Finder, etc.

  • IPhoto update impossible after upgrading to Mountain Lion?

    I upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion today and when I subsequently went into the iCloud settings I was surprised to learn my version (9.1.3) of iPhoto was not capable of supporting iCloud. The information stated if iPhoto had not been installed from the App Store, then one should go the the apple icon in the top left corner and select "Software Update" from there. When I do that, it is reported I do not have an update available. However, if I open iPhoto and check for an update from its menu, it indicates an update (two, actually) is available but when I click the "Open Software Update" button, I am directed back to the App Store where...no update available is the information provided.
    I would really like to use iCloud Photo Stream and is one of the reasons I ponied up $20 to "upgrade" to Mountain Lion. Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I have been a MS/Windows user for 20+ years and this initial exposure to difficulties with the Mac OS is not what I expected.
    Thanks.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. The purpose of this test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows: 
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click  Log in.
     *Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Try the download while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Thinking about upgrading to Mountain Lion. Family members use different devices, but all on one apple account.

    Will we be able to view our individual facebook accounts on our individual devices, all have our individual games with Mountain Lion or will it automatically synchronise to the same thing? If so, what do we need to do to separate our devices? Would we have to purchase separate Mountain Lions for each device if we did separate them?

    Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
    If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office.

  • How do you stop Mountain Lion from making endless copies and backups of everything?!

    I already have a similar topic on this when I needed to figure out how to stop Mountain Lion from making endless copies of my text edit files and I was going to try the disabling of it that someone in that thread suggested, but I can't find where the Versions backups are being stored.
    Anyway, tonight I cam across a new problem, when I went into "about this Mac" and looked at my Storage, I had almost 1gb of data in the "backups" section. I just happened to have Finder open when I went into the Time Machine in the status bar and when it entered Time Machine, I had dozens of copies of my desktop. Thing is, I don't have my Time Machine hard drive connected and I don't have a Time Capsule router/hard drive. And don't give me this garbage about how "It's not real backups, it's just a snapshot" or whatever, because the ONLY things that I have stored on my computer that I have altered since I got mountain lion is two Text Edit files and the Finder Desktop (and yes, I have checked almost all the programs I use, and of the things that Time Machine will open in, those are the only things that have backups listed that I can access) and almost 1gb is being taken up completely needlessly with the computer backing up things onto itself. Obviously these are more than just snapshots and are obviously the real files because after throwing EVERYTHING on my desktop into a file, that file is only 3.8mb in size, so that almost 1GB in backups is coming from SOMEWHERE.
    The solution I aluded to in my first sentence also depends on going into the Terminal to make each individual app stop auto saving Versions, however, since my desktop is being backed up, there's no program to stop Mountain Lion from doing that.
    Can anyone help me figure out how to make it stop backing up? Seriously, almost 1 gb is being totally wasted on a series of desktop items that are 3.8mb in size, one Text Edit file that is 250kb in size, and another text edit file that is 41kb in size. What person in Apple would possibly have thought this endless backing up of files onto the main hard drive would have been a good idea? So in a year if I did nothing but go on the internet, save one picture to one file on my desktop and did nothing else with my computer, would I have 200 gb of desktop backups that the computer saved onto itself? Are you kidding me? OR failing that, can anyone tell me how to find this damned backup file and delete it? I'm not an idiot, I know how to plug in a hard drive or flash drive and backup my information, I don't need my computer to be making hundreds of copies of every single file on my computer that I change slightly onto itself that not only needlessly eats up it's own space, but if the hard drive died, all those "backups" would be gone too because it wrote the backups to itself.
    I am so frustrated by this totally ridiculous and wasteful "feature" they put in, it does nothing but waste hard drive space with it's hundreds of copies of everything you alter slightly. And I am absolutely not starting any video editing projects until I figure out how to turn this off. If around 4mb of total text and desktop backups add up to almost 1gb in a few weeks, what the heck is a video editing project going to end up in with size? Am I the only one completely flustered by this ridiculousness? Is there any point in writing into Apple to complain or are they just going to say "No, we're brilliant, we think this is an amazing feature so you just have to deal iwth it and when your hardd drive fills up, too bad, jerk!"?? Help! Thanks!

    Well as I pointed out in my post, "Sadly, my Text Edit documents are still all there, every single time I opened them and made a small change, there is another copy stretching all the way back to the day I installed Mountain Lion." so if you can explain to me how July 26 - Aug 16 is a week, I will concede that it is a good idea. Short of that, no I have been capable of making my own backups since I was 16 years old (16 years ago) I don't need my computer to endlessly do it for me in a way I am completely unable to shut off. That's what I have external hard drives, flash drives, a DVD burner, Drop Box, E-mail (as in emailing copies to myself) and icloud for. If I am doing something and I don't have access to a single one of those options, I don't know why I brought my computer with me in the first place. And I don't see how you can say it's an illusory gain in disk space, hundreds of copies of text documents, garageband files, Final Cut files, Motion Files and basically any program that makes files onto my comptuer that I can myself make incremental changes to, those all need to be stored somehow. Again, if you can explain to me how July 26 - Aug 16 is a week, I will agree with you that that is a good thing because IF it only saved for a week, it wouldn't be an issue. Sadly, no matter how many links you post, I still have text edit backups stretching from today back to July 26. They're not going away and I have no reason to beleive any other file I edit is going to go away either since they haven't been. They're all there eating up HD space and this imaginary "week" limit is simply not coming into effect. I hate it and there needs to be a simple way to simply shut it off. I didn't spend hundreds of dollars on external drives just for my main hard drive to be filled up with hundreds un useless, undeletable backups of stuff I already have backed up.

  • Emails from one account don't appear in the Inbox of Mail since upgrading to Mountain Lion

    I have a couple of email accounts - one is Gmail and one is a domain for my business. Previously Mail would show the Inbox and then a subfolder for each account under Inbox. Any messages received in the accounts would appear in both their own subfolder and also the Inbox. All my rules worked properly and life was good. Now, try as I might I cannot get my domain email account messages to show in the global/unified Inbox.
    Originally the domain email folder was totally separate to the Inbox. By changing the IMAP Prefix (removing 'Inbox') I was able to get the folder at least under Inbox.
    I purchased a new iMac and used Migration Assistant to move everything, therefore the problem persists. I had additional problems that my address book, rules and On My Mac folders didn't appear - but I solved that by finding the Containers folder and it is like a duplicate of Mail. I moved things from there to the Library/Mail and those particular issues resolved. But for the inbox issue, I have removed data from the Users/Library/Mail and from Library/Containers and started afresh - even deleted the Mail App and reinstalled from my original disc, but as soon as I set up the account it happens again.
    Recently I have also started receiving errors when sending to use the Connection Doctor. I don't know if all this is related to a bug in Mountain Lion, the way I have things set up, or my domain/ISP.
    Any suggestions on what to try, what it may be or ways around it would be great. I do have a Smart Mailbox for a Total Inbox, but of course the Rules don't work automatically on it. I'm getting sick of running Rules manually. Help please!!

    I called the support service and she told me to delete my email address and re-enter it. I have no problem since then on receiving and sending emails.

  • How many times can I install mountain lion on my macbook pro?

    My Macbook pro came with lion pre-installed. However, I bought at a time that allowed me to update to mountain lion for free. Therefore, I wanted to know if I will have to pay to re-download mountain lion on my Macbook pro if I have to restore the system to its factory settings?

    No, since you have already "purchased" (even if for free) 10.8 on the App Store with your AppleID, you own it, so you can reinstall as much as you want.

  • How many times can you reinstall Mountain Lion?

    Since I bought the Early 2013 15" MacBook Pro retina laptop used only 17 battery cycles on it now (2.7 with 16GB ram running Mt. Lion) computer I have not reset it. I spoke to Apple and it is registered in my name, I made a new Admin. account and password and Apple had me delete the original owners. I took off anything he had left on it. Applecare also I bought in my name. Apple said I didn't have to reset it and would be fine so I left it. They deauthorized the previous iunes account and the previous owner gave me his ID to deauthorize the computer. It was already deauthorized when I checked. He then changed his password for his security. It runs beautifully and has a Samsung screen.
    I deleted the iLife apps and were going to buy them in my name (as his ID came up for updates) but now can't redownload in my name as it says I need Maverick OSon it to do so. I left the Mountain Lion 10.8.5 on it. If I contact Apple will they give me a redemption code for my name or how do I get older versions?
    If I reset to new how many times am I able to reinstall Mountain Lion? If I decide to sell it later will I be able to reset it again with no problem for the new owner?
    Thank you for your help. This forum is a source for many of us new owners to solve things.

    As long as you do the download with your Apple ID, it'll be in your name. Reverting back can be a little involved. If you have that in mind, you should make a full backup of your clean install of ML and save it somewhere. Then you can just copy the image back with Carbon Copy Cloner. External drives are cheap, that's how I'd do it.
