Search results in iCal using Mountain Lion

Why did Apple move the search results in iCal from the bottom to the side? I cannot move it or expand the results. Now, therefore, I cannot read, or see in an organized way, the results. Please advise if you have any solutions.

Whatever os you have installed, post in its forum area.

How do I view reminders or To Do's in iCal in Mountain Lion

Just upgraded to Mountain Lion today. Have hundreds of tasks, ToDo's, reminders - whatever you want to call them. Previously they appeared on right side of iCal as a list. I see no "Show Reminders" in View menu, nothing in Preferences. Searched for a reminder and nothing came up. Has everything gone to "Reminders" app?

I was disappointed to find that Calendar and Reminders are two separate apps in Mountain Lion (OS X 10.8.3). But I am more disappointed that I didn't think to check for discussions about this issue before upgrading. I didn't think to check on iCal in Mountain Lion because iCal was working so well. If it ain't broke why change it?
I have a little network of three 2011 model iMacs that had been running Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.8) with Snow Leopard Server on a Mac mini. We don't share files as much as diary entries and our to-do lists. We are very happy with how OS X 10.6 handles this.
There are a couple of pieces of software that I would like to use that only run on Lion or Mountain Lion so I thought I'd upgrade one of the iMacs to Mountain Lion. After the upgrade Calendar appears to have picked up the iCal data on the iMac and our shared iCal data on the server but not the to-do list items. It appears from the discussions that no provision has been made to import the data into Reminders. Strangely, some completed to-do items appeared in Reminders.
After my first shutdown and next startup of the iMac I also encountered the frozen dialogue box "Upgrading calendars …" which some of the discussions mentioned. Calendar quit OK and I re-opened it without the dialogue box appearing again. Calendar is a big window too that doesn't seem to be able to be reduced down much.
Some years ago I used an application called Now Up-to-Date on various Macs running OS 8. It combined a calendar and to-do list that could be shared on a network but the network features didn't work with OS X in Classic mode. It wasn't until later versions of OS X that iCal incorporated the combined features.
This is a bit of a long story but for the first time using Macs I think I will uninstall an upgrade. My little network was working fine. I'm also not keen to upgrade the server to Mountain Lion and risk messing up features that have been working well.

I have lost my calendar data and am having a hard time retrieving it from Time Capsule. Can anyone help? I am using Mountain lion OS

I have lost my iCal data and am having a hard time retrieving it from Time Capsule. I am using Mountain Lion OS om iMac. Can anyone help?

You cannot see it because it is hidden.. one of those great things apple does.. if it is hidden in your Mac then it will be hidden in the Time Machine Backup.
You will need to restore the entire folder to a different location.. and unhide it.
There is some info here about restoring particular files or folders.
http://pondini.org/TM/16.html
And some info from Lion which should also relate to Mountain Lion.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3231381?start=0&tstart=0
There is stuff about recovery near the end.
One wonders sometimes when Apple make these decisions if they ever think about what happens when something goes wrong. Hiding files..???

"Merging data" error when syncing iPhone 5s Calendar to MacBook Pro Calendar, using Mountain Lion

Since a failed attempt to sync data via iCloud (resulting in duplicate entries in Calendar and Contacts, missing data, and other oddities), whenever I try to sync the Calendars via iTunes, I repeatedly get the error message, "iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone <name> because an error occurred while merging data." The Contacts sync fine, and the backup runs smoothly. The only discussions I can find in Apple Support are dated 2009 with older systems (I'm using Mountain Lion 10.8.5, iTunes 11.1.5, iOS 7.1.1, but the problem occurred with iOS 7.0 and possibly 6.0 as well). Repairing permissions had no effect. I can't use the option to copy the Mac Calendar to the iPhone because new data are entered into the iPhone. Would appreciate guidance. I'm trying to avoid iCloud but if I have to go there to fix this, guidance for that would also be welcome.

I have iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1.4 and iMac with Mavericks 10.9.3 and iTunes 11.2.1.
I also got this error when I tried to sync iPhone with iMac (after a year when Apple disabled local USB cabel sync in Mavericks - thanks Apple for re-enabling it!).
I tried a number of things to no avail. Finally I tried three things - and hurraaa, can sync now! Unfortunatelly I didn't test sync among these three steps - so don't know which one fixed it - up to you to try. My guess is that it was the 3rd step, actually
Step 1: On my iPhone I opened Calendar and tap "Calendars" (top left). I have 7 items on the list (2 email accounts, Calendar, Home, Work, Reminders, Birthdays). Most of the calendar entries were in my Home calendar, only a few were in Work or Birthdays. I moved all of them to Home. I also checked whether there aren't any items without content.
Step 2: On the list of Calendars I had one custom item (Birthday in my local language). This item had only one entry in it. I deleted both the single entry and the custom item as a whole - so I left the default categories only.
Step 3: At the top of the list of Calendars there is an item "All from My Mac". I tapped this and thus enabled all of my calendar categories. Now the sync worked like a charm!
I actually noticed that when I synced, iTunes automatically checked all items under "Sync Calendars - Selected Calendars". Even if I manually deselected all except the "Home" calendar, as soon as I started to sync, iTunes checked all items automatically. This led me to thinking that if I check "All from My Mac" item in my iPhone it might work.
Good luck with your sync issue, hope you'll solve it.

Search and Document History in Mountain Lion

Anyone out there figured out what Apple is doing with the Search and Document History in Mountain Lion? Here's my beef:
Missing History in Finder. Finder used to have a "History" button in the sidebar that would track docs by when you last used them--yeterday, this week, this month, etc. This was SUPER helpful--but it seems to have disappeared. Anyone know how to make it reappear, or has Apple decided that I don't really need it?
Really Hard to Search by Filename. In the old version, there was a button that would allow me to search by filename, but the new version makes you click through several very janky layers to do that. Anyone have a shortcut? Or advice on how to reorient my brain to the new search logic?
Thanks!

FileVault is one option, as etresoft points out. But you should note that e-mail is an inherently insecure medium. You should never transmit confidential information about patients via e-mail. That's like writing it on a postcard and mailing it... You're trusting everyone between you and the recipient not to read it. You need to either discuss cases only using something like a unique ID number that cannot be linked to the patient without access to your records, or you need to use encrypted e-mail (which is a pain to get set up, because everyone involved needs to participate).

Using Mountain Lion offline

I need to buy a new MBP for my business. Luckily, I had an opportunity to try one (15", i7, OS 10.8) before placing an order. Since my present machines are still on OS 10.7, I was new to Mountain Lion. I really liked it - until I started using it at the actual work site (rural Pennsylvania) without any network connection (even my iPhone is dead there). The lack of online service did not bother me because the only work I need to do on the laptop at this site is data and word processing. However, nothing seemed to work in Mountain Lion while offline. Help, Preview, iWork, Office 2011, Acrobat Pro and a bunch of other programs I used on my regular office's LAN without a problem, suddenly became unresponsive or gave me the spinning beachball for a minute (probably due to some network timeout). I tried to make it clear to the OS that I am in the boonies by setting up a "No network" location in Network Preferences with all network interfaces turned off. Some apps, like Preview, simply switched back to the "LAN" location I use in my regular office — then crashed. Being new to Mountain Lion, I also needed to run Help but it either told me that help is available online, or waited for a minute then came up with some basic advice for Mac newbies.
My questions are:
What are the settings (including using the Terminal) that tells Mountain Lion that I am offline and that it should not pause for incoming data because not a single bit will come?
What I am I doing wrong that prevents me to use Mountain Lion offline without loosing functionality in applications that do not external data?
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. Test 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.

TS3988 I am using mountain lion. iCloud works fine with my iMac iPads and iPhone with one annoying exception. I cannot use the systems preferences on my iMac because I cannot log in. When entering my apple id and password I get a window saying "You can

I cannot log into systems preferences for icloud on my imac. icloud works on all devices including the imac, but I get the window "You can't sign in at this time" when using system preferences on the imac. I am using mountain lion, but it didn't work on lion either. Help

You may wish to try the following:
1. Sign out of your account
(If you are unable to do this because System Preferences has frozen, Force Quit System Preferences and try again)
2. When prompted, opt to delete, contacts, calendars etc from your Mac.
(You are only deleting this data from your Mac, not from iCloud, the data will be reinstated when you log back in. If you need to check that the data is in iCloud before deleting it go to iCloud.com and check each section for data)
3. Having logged out, check that the iCloud accounts along with their data have disappeared from the Mail, Address Book and iCal Applications.
(If necessary, delete the iCloud accounts from each of these application separately from each Applications Preferences)
4. At this point it may be worth trying to log into iCloud from the System Preferences iCloud settings again, if this works, all well and good, if it doesn't continue to step 5.
5. Open your User Library folder in the Finder. (When in the Finder, go to the Go menu, hold down the option key (alt) and choose Library when it appears in the Go menu)
6. Navigate to Library > Application Support > iCloud and drag the iCloud folder to your desktop. (This action only copies the folder and will provide you with a back up)
7. Select the iCloud folder again in Library > Application Support and drag it to the trash, enter your administrators password when prompted.
8. Restart your computer.
9. You should now be able to enter your ID and Password in system Preferences > iCloud and log into your account. Check the services you wish to use and once you are satisfied it's working as it should, trashh the iCloud folder you copied to your desktop earlier.

Hello, I'm using Mountain Lion and mail does not leave the mails on the server, either on iCloud nor on other suppliers (orange). They are both using iMap protocol... Any place where I could change this ? Thanks for any hall; Christian

Under what circumstances does mail "not leave the mails on the server"?
If you mean that you delete them (or move them out of the inbox) on one device and then find them not in the inbox on the server when you look from another device, that's how IMAP is supposed to work. (Note that the deletion or moving might be the result of rules you have set up in Mail.)
If you mean something else, please explain your issue in more detail.

I'm trying to use Mountain Lion Server so my family can have separate logins via Screen Share to their iTunes.

Using Mountain Lion Server so my family can have separate logins and connect via Screen Share.
Works great, each has their own home directory and permissions are perfect.
Now setting up iTunes for each with their own Library (not shared), thus keeping multiple Libraries.
I get this;
This Computer is already associated with an Apple ID.
If you download past purchases with your Apple ID, you
cannot auto-download past purchases with a different
Apple ID for 90 days.
What!
So what it is on the same computer, they are completely separate Libraries never to be mixed.
If this works, I only need to keep one computer up and running, instead of three.
Each can do their syncing/backup and connect to the various Airplay/AppleTVs I have around the house.
How do I fix this.
Thanks

Bottom line is you can't - easily.
You need to make sure that you log out of the server each time otherwise the ID is running. To explain, if you had a laptop with different people using it, your solution works fine. Each time someone logs in, the iTunes ID is different so it works as you can only have one person using the laptop at any one time.
Now, turning your problem inside-out, you want people to be able to log into iTunes concurrently to use their own version of the program with their own library. This does not seem to work and you get the conflicted ID error message. Even though iTunes is running under their own login ident, I have never been able to get this working reliably and was told that iTunes is NOT a network-aware application as it is designed to be single user.
The way I got around this was to login as XYZ and to make sure that the ID was changed in iTunes accordingly. However, it did not always work so I gave up with the whole thing.

I'm having trouble with something that redirects Google search results when I use Firefox on my PC. It's called the 'going on earth' virus. Do you have a fix that could rectify the vulnerability in your software?

I'm having trouble with a virus or something which affects Google search results when I use Firefox on my PC ...
When I search a topic gives me pages of links as normal, but when I click on a link, the page is hijacked to a site called 'www.goingonearth.com' ...
I've done a separate search and found that other users are affected, but there doesn't seem to be a clear-cut solution ... (Norton, McAfee and Kaspersky don't seem to be able to detect/fix it).
I'd like to continue using the Firefox/Google combination (nb: the hijack virus also affects IE but not Safari) - do you have a patch/fix that could rectify the vulnerability in your software?
thanks

''' "... vulnerability in your software?" ''' 
And it affects IE, too? Ya probably picked up some malware and you blame it on Firefox.
Install, update, and run these programs in this order. They are listed in order of efficacy. '''''(Not all programs detect the same Malware, so you may need to run them all to solve your problem.)''''' These programs are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in the "free mode" - but those are features you really don't need to find and remove the problem that you have. 
''Note: If your Malware infection is bad enough and you are mis-directed to URL's other than what is posted, you may have to use a different PC to download these programs and use a USB stick to transfer them to the afflicted PC.''

If I replace my old iMac with a new one can I burn DVDs on an external drive using Mountain Lion or Toast?

My 2006 iMac is getting a bit long in the tooth and I was thinking of replacing it with a new one. However, Mac have not included an optical drive and I back up my photographs on DVD as well as external hard drives. I also supply DVDs of my work to friends etc.
Will I be able to burn to an external drive using Mountain Lion or other software such as Toast? Does the burn option still exist on the new machines?

Hello,
You shouldn't have any problem, if you do just try Burn...

Using Mountain Lion iOS and audio output will not change from internal speakers to AppleTV so that sound can come from TV speakers, why??

I am using Mountain Lion iOS and trying to connect my MacBook Pro to my plasma TV using AppleTV and AirPlay mirroring. The video does just fine. However, there is no audio coming from the TV. After activating AirPlay I try to select Apple TV as the audio output in System Preferences and it highlights it but then immediately goes back to Internal Speakers and only has sound coming from the MacBook Pro..
What's going wrong ?????
AJ

Are you sure that WIFI network doesn't have an AppleTV on it? Just because you don't own it doesn't mean there isn't one on that network. The laptop or better said the OS cannot differentiate between an AppleTV that you own or not. If it sees one on the network, it will show you one as being available. The automatic reconnection is happening probably because the last time you streamed to an AppleTV, you didn't drop that connection before sleeping the computer or shutting down iTunes.

I manage 60 ipads for a school using Apple Configurator. Need to update to iOS7 and AC1.4.3...Is it best to use Mountain Lion or Mavericks, as I also need to update from Lion 10.7 for the new AC and iOS to work properly.

I always run a Time Machine backup before updating anything and recommend you run a backup as well. Paid apps should migrate over without any problem. If you have problems with VPP codes not transfering over properly, you can talk to your Apple SE or contact VPP for Education support and they can help you. While I haven't experienced any problems with updating, its never a guarantee that others will have the same experience.
Good luck!

If you scroll the list to the bottom, there might be a count. I haven't figured out why you sometimes get a count and other times you don't.
