Software update, iLife and Mountain Lion

When I purchased my mac, it came with Snow Leopard, and iLife (iPhoto, iMovie, Garageband etc) on disc. I upgraded to Lion last year.
Since iLife came with my Mac, and not from the app store, I received all updates through software update.
I heard that software update is done away with in Mountain Lion. So what happens to my apps? Will my iLife apps automagically be recognized and updated through the app store?
More importantly, I purchased the disc version of Logic Studio (39GB of content!). I am particularly appreciative of the disc version of Logic since it has more content than when you download from the app store, and I can't afford to download 39GB of content. I don't want to upgrade to Mountain Lion if it messes up my Logic.
I don't want to have to purchase my apps again.
Is anyone else in the same situation as me? Have you upgraded to Mountain Lion? What has happened to your apps? Do they get recognized by the app store?
If you reinstall mountain lion, then what happens to your apps?

Also a little heads up, if you do a clean install of Mountain Lion you won't be able to install the iLife apps via the DVD you will receive an error. Apple suggests doing a Clean install of Snow Leopard, then installing iLife via the DVD, and then upgrading to Mountain Lion. What I did was a clean install of Mountain Lion and then I transferred the iLife apps from my Time Machine backup.
Or the simple process of just upgrading works. (I personally prefer clean installs, but they aren't required.)

Software Update problem in Mountain Lion

Why do I keep getting "The operation couldn’t be completed. (NSURLErrorDomain error -1100.)" when checking for software updates?

There are many people suffering from this problem right now (including me). It appears to be a server issue. Just wait and try checking for updates again tomorrow.
Some things I have heard indicate that this may be a regional problem, though what parts of the world are affected I don't know yet. A few people have been helped by deleting the following preference file (paste the path into the Go -> Go to Folder window in the Finder to locate it), though most have not:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist

HT1338 Should I delete "Software Update.app" in Mountain Lion?

...seems pretty unelegant for OS 10.8 to leave it taking up space in the Applications folder...and also a bit "confusing"...

I upgraded from 10.6.8 to 10.8...anybody got a definate answer?
Here's what Finder Info window shows for the file "Software Update.app" - which IS still in My Applications folder...
"Automator Launcher version 1.0, Copyright 2004 Apple Computer, Inc."
...Created and Modified dates of the file date to 2008 (same date)
...clicking "Software Update..." from Apple menu does indeed open App Store app to search for updates...
...So, not a real bg deal of course, but I think my original question/observation still holds.
And a suggestion, therefore to Apple: create a customizable Updater app, into which users can add Third-Party apps...updates for EVERYTHING are almost constantly coming...wouldn't it be great if a thoughtful user could just click on one app in the most excellent MAC environment and get all possible updates for installed software, no matter the vendor?

Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive. "Could not complete backup to media share. The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features." What are AFP features and how do I get Time Machine to backup to my current external backup?

This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

I can't install a update softwares on os x Mountain Lion

Hello
After installing an SSD in a MacBook Pro (replacing the internal hard disk of origin), I tried an installation of OS 10.8 (Lion Mountain) from an USB key created with DiskMaker X application.
Then, I moved iLife'11 from an official installation DVD.
But when I want to perform software updates from the Mac App Store, I have available the updated OS 10.9 Mavericks.
No update for OS 10.8 or iLife'11 appear in the Updates section of the App Store application.
Is there another solution ?
Thanks

Mac OS X 10.8 may be updated to 10.8.5 using the combo update:
OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.5 (Combo)
Additional updates may be found on:
Apple security updates
Once you find the name of the update you want, Google:
support.apple.com DL 'name of update'
Where name of update is what appears as the name on the security update link.
iLife '11 has applications listed on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ILife which you can find if you need a patch for the individual application, much in the same manner as finding the security updates for Mac OS X.

It's possible something has become corrupted in your AppStore cache folder. I had the same problem that occurred after I did a partial download, paused it, and attempted to restart it again later. Here's how I fixed my problem:
Enable AppStore Debug menu:
1. Quit AppStore completely.
2. Run Terminal and enter the following on the command line: defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
3. Restart the AppStore. You should see a new menu called "Debug".
Clear the download cache:
4. In AppStore, select Debug menu / Show Download Folder
5. Quit AppStore completely, but leave download folder open
6. In the download folder, select all files/folders, then delete them.
7. Restart AppStore. You may need to sign in to your Apple account again.
You may need to restart your computer to be able to delete the files from the trash.
You can then try the download again.

I am still in the return window but i really do not want to return my mac as i know it has the ability to do what i want, my problem is just finding the software that will work as i know there has been a lot of complications with OS X Mountain Lion with softwares that caim to be compatible but then later turn out not to be.
I have been a windows user for years and this is really my first mac but apart from the hole software issue i find the mac 10x better than any windows computer i have ever used. For example i bought a HP laptop 4 weeks ago and has nothing but problems. At first the fans stopped working and making weird noises and then it began switching off when ever it felt like it and freezing like mad when i was trying to access the smallest program. I have found that now a days you dont get what you pay for with Windows especially since Windows 8 was released. Also Laptops such as HP now are just crammed with cheap parts, they dont take pride in their systems like they once used to unlike Apple. I know i will get more than a year or 2 out my mac (hopefully a lot more) but with windows systems it just seems to break all the time costing more money on extending warrantys. Also i like mac because i dont need to send it away if i ever get a problem, i can just take it into the apple shop half a mile down the road and they will fix it in store. Where as with windows i am waiting 2 weeks+ to just hear back from them.

I am trying to update to iTunes 10.5 and am getting a Apple Software update error. "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. ??

I am trying to update to iTunes 10.5 and am getting a Apple Software update error. "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. ?? I can't uninstall the Apple Software Update from my Control Panel. It states "Fatal error during installation" Please HELP!!!

I am experiencing the exact same issue during the installtion process for iTunes 10.5.
I uninstalled all Apple components but when I attempted to uninstall the Apple Software Update I received the same message: "Fatal error during installtion." I was able to repair the Apple Software Update but still could not install iTunes 10.5 afterwards.
I have tried everything that I could find on these discussions pages as well as other suggestions on third party sites. I continue to receive the error message: "There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
I was able to uninstall and reinstall QuickTime 7.7.1. During the reinstalltion process I received the same message (There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package.

Any Ideas of how to solve this one?

After reading all these posts, one by one did not resolve my problem until I got the very end. Regardless of what step would resolve your problem, these are the steps I would recomment to everyone for a what seems to be a safe and fool-proof upgrade to iTunes 10.5.
1. Stand alone upgrade to the latest Quicktime version
2. Go to control panel and "change" then select repair to the following applications in the order specified by the post on Oct 27. (Notice I skipped Quicktime because it had been upgrade manually,and Bonjour did not have a "repair" option)
iTunes; Apple Software Update: Mobile Device Support; Apple Applications Support
Some of these applications may not appear if they do not apply to your configuration (no iPhone, or no iPad, or other apple devices).
Once all updated, I did not need to restart nor launch any applications, I simply went straight into the 10.5 upgrade, and where it normally got stuck, this time the installation continued for a while longer until it completed successfully.
Great work everyone who contributed! Thank you very much!

Download of update to OSX Mountain Lion

I was updating to OSX Mountain Lion, used my computer for something else and the download got interrupted.
How do I resume the download?

That is a point many users miss...even Apple has limited bandwidth when it comes time to release a major operating system and millions of users want to download at the same time...during the first two weeks one should expect delays and long, long download times.
It is getting to the point that suggesting downloading during "off hours" isn't even good advice...world-wide there is no such thing as an off hours time segment
I have a very fast f9ber optic carrier and download took around thirty minutes...another good reason to tell people to make a copy of the installer before doing the installation so you do not need to download again.

HT4889 Migration Assistant to update my new Mountain Lion iMac from an external USB hard disk drive, it is constantly saying that it is "looking for other computers". It doesn't find the external drive. Why is it looking for other computers?

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!

Problems with a Game - Should I update to OSX Mountain Lion?

Howdy,
To cut a long story short and get straight to the point I've been having problems with the Sims 3 for god knows how long and its starting to drive me mad. What I'm now wondering is whether updating to OSX Mountain Lion would help at all. The reason I've asked this is because I read a post by someone that said the only way to update your video card (which might be causing the problem) would be to upgrade the whole operating system.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sarah
P.s. If you need anymore details or anything just let me know

You can not upgrade your Video card at all.
Mountain Lion may help, but I don't know that it will.

Anyone updated system running OS X Server 2.2.2 with Security Update 2014-001 (Mountain Lion)?

Has anyone updated your system running OS X Server 2.2.2 with the Security Update 2014-001 (Mountain Lion)? If you have, may I know if you have any issues?
Also, does anyone know if a Apache HTTP module that was compiled with version HTTP 2.2.24 will work under HTTP 2.2.26 (updated by Security Update 2014-001)? I am asking because the module mod_jk.so is not available in the stock Mountain Lion but only in /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/libexec/apache2/ (inside the OS X Server 2.2.2 app), and I am using the module for my Tomcat installation interface to HTTP server.

Actually, the university I work for is having tons of issues with our Mountain Lion computer (all models) booting and it seems to be tied to this update. After installing this update, the computer starts booting, gets to the grey screen with the Apple logo and then won't go any further and the cursor changes to the spinning color wheel thing. A permissions repair resolves the issue temporarily, but it always seems to come back.
