Skype problem on Mountain Lion - possible solution!

Worked for me!
I noticed that when I tried to launch Skype on newly downloaded Mountain Lion the small app - iGlasses- also tried to launch .
I deleted iGlasses and all its components using search in Finder. There are also several iGlasses files in Library - once they were all gone and you can tell they are gone once iGlasses doesn't come up in Skype - success!
Skype now works. In my case it was definitely a conflict with iGlasses.
If you are still having a problem launching Skype could there be a software conflict ?

Yes. No surprise. Third Party software conflicts are the main cause of system issues, conflicts and failures. Thanks for letting us know of yet another one to add to the long list.

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.

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.

Contact serius problem in Mountain Lion

Dear frends,
I had a serius problem in Mountain Lion contacts:
All my contacts are on iCloud and when I istalled Mountain lion on my iMac and Macbookpro, in the contacts app many iCloud cards apperiar with ony the name and all the contact details are blank. On the iPhone, iPad and iCloud on web the same contact are all ok (I can see all the contact details). So I think is a probem of contact visualization.
I tried to active and deactive the icloud contacts, but no change.
In the genius they tried to open a new user and activte icloud contacts, but nothig changes.
Anybody have some solution?
Thank in advance!!

I also have exactly the same problem as FiddleMonster.
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.

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)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''

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.

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.

I have the same problem on Mountain Lion with my brand new Retina MacBook Pro. Not even a single left click with the trackpad works.

Cuda driver not loaded as startup item in mountain lion any solution ?

Hi,
the NFSv4 domain name is not necessarily related to the host name or the host's fully-qualified domain name (FQDN). It can be the same like the domain name, but it does not have to.
To find the corrent NFSv4 domain name, you have to look it up in the NFSv4 server's configuration files.
Kind regards,
Steffen

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????

Skype via facebook problem since mountain lion upgrade

After upgrading to OS X Mountain Lion, I have sound but the video is not working, Any suggestions? I've tried on safari, chrome, firefox and opera, doesn't work.

Reseting the SMC should fix this.

DNS problem after Mountain Lion upgrade

Yesterday, I upgraded my Lion to Mountain Lion and after that I can't connect to websites or make use of services that use DNS. I've tried the regular 'solutions' that were posted in forums, but nothing has worked for me so far. Things I've tried:
- Change MTU to 1300
- Shut down Wifi and restart it
- Reboot computer on several occasions
- Change DNS servers
- Remove Wifi network adapter and add a completely new profile
- Flush DNS cache with the both the old command (pre-Lion) and the new command (post-Lion)
- Install Mountain Lion again (after that, my sound doesn't work anymore either)
- Stop mDNSResponder via Launchctl and start it again
The only things I can think of next is to connect via LAN, connect via a different network or a complete clean install of Mountain Lion and see if that works.
Symptoms:
- Cannot connect to websites and services via URL
- CAN connect to websites using their IP-addresses
- Hence, Skype works as it connects using IP-addresses
- Can use SSH
- Have excellent connection within my own network at home (SSH, AFP file server, router web interface)
Config:
Late 2007 MBP 17"
No VPN's
No proxies
Does anybody have any ideas what I can do to alleviate this problem or know of anybody else that has the same problem?

Tried with different WAP and they all work fine except the one I have at home. Seems to be a problem between the new Mountain Lion drivers of my Airport card MBP model A1229 and the ZTE H220N wireless router.

SSD users problems post Mountain Lion upgrade?

HI folks. I've had nothing but major problems with installing and booting since I upgraded my Mac to Mountain Lion. I had no problems with Lion. I do have an SSD installed and I'm wondering if that has something to do with it. Anyone? Thanks.

Hello All...
I just wanted to give you my expeience with my SSD. Im hoping this helps someone out there.
I have a macbookpro5,4 - mid 2009 2.53 GHZ 15" macbook pro running lion. I purchased a 512 SSD from crucial and 2 x 4 GB ram modules.
I installed both and all worked great (I used a time machine backup to restore the SSD), up to the point where I put the computer to sleep either by closing the lid, via the power button, or via the apple menu. When I tried to log in from sleep it would give me the beach ball and it wouldnt go away.
So heres what I did:
1. I put my old hard drive in and everything worked fine but not as fast as ssd
2. I put the SSD back in and the sleep issue came back
3. Upgraded from Lion to Mountain Lion (issue still there)
4. I downgraded the firmware to 1.6 (issue still came back)
5. Upgraded firmware back to 1.7 (issue still there)
6. Disabled "put hard drive to sleep when possible) (System Preferences -> Energy Saver) - (issue still there - though i kept this disabled)
7. Disabled "allow bluetooth to wake up this computer" (System Preferences -> Energy Saver -> Advanced) - (issue still there) - I renabled it after
8. Saw a post to replace the hard drive cable bracket Apple part: 922-9314 (i purchased on ebay)
9. Found a program called insominaX - enables you to prevent your computer from going to sleep by closing the lid. THIS WORKED for me as a bypass solution but not as a real solution as the computer is still on when i travelled from one location to the next.
I emailed crucial and now i was contemplating wiping out the hard drive and starting from scratch and reinstalling everything.
And the final solution (for me anyways):
10. I Reset the SMC - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964. And everything worked.
I went back to disable the insomniaX and everything still worked. I did a sleep via apple, closing lid, and power button. And still all good.
11. I requested a refund for the hard drive cable bracket. And the seller just refunded for me.
Best of luck to everyone out there...I hope you dont have to spend as much time as myself to solve this issue.
