Recieving new Mountain Lion code
Posting this as a last ditch attempt to get a new code for Mountian Lion. As everyone else my code for Mountain Lion didnt work but i emailed asking for a new one which when sent was the same as the first one. so called apple and told to contact uptodate support which i did but all i recieve from them is a copy and paste email telling me how to use my code. after a strong worded email telling them not to dare sending me that email again they have finally sent me a third email with a code which is the same code as the first time. i now am at a loss as for what to do. anyone else had the same trouble or are they just playing a game to see who they can annoy the most. feel like im going to have to take iMac back for a refund.
Just making sure. That ***** then. I would suggest maybe taking your Mac to the Apple store if possible and let them know. I saw a post a few days ago where someone took it and showed them the issues they were having and the rep at the store helped them d/l it for free.

Home sharing does not work with new mountain lion update.
home sharing does not work with new mountain lion update. Does anyone else have the same issue. Updated all computers in my home, deauthorized and reauthorized each computer. turn off home sharing and turned it back on. don't know what else to do..please help...
Our Apple TVs continue to lose connection ever since installing Mountain Lion on the host computer. The only thing that fixes them is to quit and relaunch iTunes, which only works unti the ATV goes to sleep. If a movie is paused for more than a few minutes and the ATV goes to sleep, pressing play again on the remote is greeted with "There are no movies on this computer" or "Turn on Home Sharing."
If we stop a video on one ATV and attempt to resume it in another room, the error begins again. The other ATV can't connect until iTunes is relaunched.
My guess is that it has something to do with the new [annoying] security settings. But I still haven't found a fix other than restarting iTunes everytime we want to watch something from our downloads. Fail. -

Hi guys..!!
I would like to know if someone could help on this:
I just have a HP printer (HP Designjet 100) and for some reason I need to install a file for all the HP printers drivers in total 590MB to be able to use my printer in my mountain lion???
If normally the size of my files in the for previous software was more or less 5MB why now i need to install 590?
Some one could help me how to avoid installation of 590MB for my new mountain lion software???
ThanksIf you go to http://support.apple.com/downloads and locate the HP Printer Drivers installer, you will find that it is 473.4 MB (for version 2.11). If you install this, it will install the full set of drivers for every model of HP printer that is supported by the drivers distributed through Apple. The disk space occupied once installed will probably be larger than the download, since the downloaded file is compressed.
On the other hand, if you have an HP printer connected and you use Software Update (or the Update tab in App Store), that should offer you a much smaller set of HP drivers, which are only applicable to your printer (and possibly a few similar ones). These updates are typically only tens of megabytes rather than hundreds of megabytes.
If Software Update doesn't offer you any HP drivers then it either thinks you have the latest drivers installed already, or the printer model is not supported by the drivers available from Apple.
This article lists all of the printer models for which Apple distributes the driver:

Help! I want to upgrade to the new Mountain Lion OS but first need to upgrade rto 10.6.8. I'm currenty running 10.5.8. When i try the Software update from my desktop apple menu, it says i already have the most redent software. I tried downloading 10.6.8 but when i tried to run it said i first need 10.6, which i can't seem to find anywhere on the Apple site or internet. Any suggestions? Can i somehow not upgrade form 10.5.8 to 10.6 or higher?
Thanks.Get this from Amazon before the prices really get out of control!

I'm trying to use Migration Assistant to update my new Mountain Lion iMac from an external USB hard disk drive. I told it to look for a drive, yet it is constantly saying that it is "looking for other computers". It doesn't find the external drive ... it just endlessly looks for other computers. Why is it looking for other computers at all, when I told it not to?
Wow, the wording in Migration Assistant is misleading. I've never used it before, so I thought I would try to copy my files from the external drive ... my old iMac died, but I managed to get everything I need off it, using the 'cp' command in single-user mode. So I guess I'll just have to manually copy the files from the external drive to the new machine. I was hoping that Migration Assistant might help somehow, but obviously not.
Thanks for the quick reply! -
I just got the new macbook pro about 2 weeks ago, it has lion. When the new mountain lion comes this summer, can i just update it on my macbook pro since it isn't so old? And if i can update it, do i have to pay, or is it a free update?
I'm in the same position, the store said they didn't know of any new release, so i bought my macbook pro to find out about mountain lion. I really hope that i'm not going to pay for the upgrade. New to apple, also last month bought my Ipad 3, really thought that Airplay would have been on my book pro, nope, waste of time.........need that update to use it. Back i the box then, get the windows 7 ultimate pro back out until then.

If I have the Snow Leopard OS do I need to update the Lion OS before the new Mountain Lion OS?
If I have the Snow Leopard OS do I need to update the Lion OS before the new Mountain Lion OS?
Apple has not detailed Mountain Lion's requirements or how it will be made available, and probably won't until much closer to release. So we cannot answer your question at this time. Keep an eye on Apple's web pages for Mountain Lion as well as the many Apple-related news web sites and I'm sure you'll see the announcement when it comes.

I just installed the new mountain lion software on my iMac. I was currently running Snow Leopard. My problem is with my mouse. Now when I scroll down the page it moves in the opposite direction. In system preferences I tried checking and unchecking Natural for scroll feature. Movement from side to side works fine. Has anyone experienced this problem?
I think this new scrolling behaviour was introduced with Lion. You do get used to it pretty quickly (well I did). Are you sure that deselecting Natural Scrolling in Mouse Prefs doesn't re-instate the previous behaviour, it does here.

I just purchased a MacBook Pro Retina. Checked my OSX and it is version 10.8.1... trying to find a way to upgrade to a higher version. In the app store it doesnt show the update nor downloading the new Mountain Lion OXS doesnt work. Please help
hienn,
Not yet. There was an upgrade page to 10.8.2 for the late 2012 models but it's down now. I have to assume that Apple pulled it because of some bugs. I would look for something next week, more likely than not. In the meantime, the OP should be good with 10.8.1 until the update shows up again.

What do I do if the Mac App Store won't except my code for the OS X Mountain Lion code?

how do you publish calendar under new mountain lion cloud. seems as though this functionality has been lost.
There was never a functionality to publish a calendar thru iWeb.
You could publish a calendar, 100% independent of iWeb, and display it in a browser window.
Then you could display that window in an iWeb HTML Snippet.
how do you publish calendar under new mountain lion cloud.
I recommend asking in either the iCloud or the Mountain Lion forum.
