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

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.)

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?

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.

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.

HT1338 I am trying to update a Brother MFC-J5910DW firmware and driver software for OS X Mountain Lion. The instructions say I need to have JavaVM (Virtual Machine) on my system. How do I load it and wasn't there a "fix" apple sent out for Java?

I have recently bought my Mac mini ( July 12) and have already requested my free update code for mountain lion, got a reference nr, but I still haven't received a code via email to update? Its been 12 days. Any advice?

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.

Airport extreme A1143 problem with mountain lion

what airport extreme software version works with mountain lion

I have an A1143 here and it works just fine with AirPort Utility 6.2 in Mountain Lion.
It also works fine with AirPort Utility 5.6, which I have on another Mac here.
All you can really do is try a Factory Default Reset on the AirPort Extreme to clear out all the old....and possibly conlficting.....settings and try to configure it again.
If you continue to experience problems, I would suspect a less than perfect AirPort Extreme....although I am sure that the seller claimed it was perfect.

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.

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.

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.

in facebook skype, my partner can see me but i can see him, i have just update OS X Mountain lion please help me, im just thinking in downgrade to OS X Lion

It seems Mountain Lion has a lot of bugs. I had to replace the hard drive after the upgrade and many had the same problems that required a disk replacement.

HT3275 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 feat

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).
