Time Machine doesn't appear in Launchpad since upgrading to Mountain Lion

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion (I'm using 10.8.1), Time Machine doesn't appear as one of the apps when using Launchpad. I can't figure out where it "went" but how do I get it back into Launchpad?
It's still in the Applications folder and in my Dock but I'd like to know why it isn't in Launchpad any more?
Thanks.
Sheri

Open Terminal and copy:
sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock/*.db "DELETE from apps; \
DELETE from groups WHERE title<>''; DELETE from items WHERE rowid>2;" \
&& killall Dock
Go to Applications and drag the apps to Launchpad

Time Machine backup disk no longer available since upgrade to Mountain Lion

He everyone,
I've been using Time Machine for years to backup my iMac to an external USB harddrive (Samsung HD103Sl), and everything used to work just fine up until I installed Mountain Lion.
Now Finder nor Time Machine can see my external harddrive. If I go to DIsk Utility, the harddrive is listed there, and everything seem to be just fine. I tried to run a disk verification and a repair, but Disk Utility tell me everything is OK.
Is it a Mountain Lion bug? Can someone help me with that?
TIA
Charles

I'm not sure if I have exactly the same case as yours....
I got the problem with my external HDD (with 2 partitions) while I was using one of the encrypted partition as Time Machine backup. I could not erase it after I upgrade to Mountain Lion, and it shown "this patition contain a locked disk and can not be resized until it is unlocked" in Disk Utility.
You may have a look if that's the same in Disk Utility.
Finally I get it fixed by the "diskutil" command in "Terminal" in "OSX > Applications > Utilities".
I used the command "diskutil" to verify the UUID of the "Logical Volume Group (LVG)" of the locked partition.
Then use the command to delete the LVG.
** All logical volume under this groiup will be deleted!!
Once the operation finished, I am able to recreate the partition in Disk Utility.
Hope this help!!

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I cannot restore emails with time machine. In Lion TM created a folder in Mail called recovered emails(or similar) No such folder is created since ML. I am able to see the email I want to restore, but it then disappears

I am inside Mail, waiting for the TM 'recovered mail' folder to appear - which it doen't.

Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.

Since upgrading to mountain lion on my macbook pro, i cannot email photos from iphoto.
i can select the picture but when sending it, an error symbol appears.
Any ideas ?

This doesn't work for me at all. I tried entering exactly the same information that I used to set up my regular email account and I'm still getting an error message. I even tried switching to using my gmail account and neither one worked. Then it got hung up and had to repair my database! I have a lot of photos on my Mac (thank goodness they're backed up) and I was really sweating it for a moment.
Apple is so easy until it's not. I find this to be really aggrevating and I'm irritated that it hasn't been fixed. In fact I did an online search and someone described this same problem in detail and it was exactly what was happening to me. Same error messages.
I'm frustrated that Apple keeps updating it's operating system and then we go through these glitches.
And while I'm at it, I have never had such a frustrating time using my login information as I have to get into this forum! Why do they make it so difficult? There's just something about the way it's worded that get's me messed up every time. Meanwhile, at least get iPhoto fixed!

Bluetooth and Isight not working since upgrade to Mountain Lion

Hello,
I have a mid-2010 MBP running OSX 10.8.2.
Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, My bluetooth and iSight both have stopped working. I have tried the clear the SMC numerous times. Mostly it does not have any effect. However, a couple of times, it has restored service to the iSight and the bluetooth, but as soon as I reboot the machine they are back to being disabled. Sometimes they become available without my resetting the SMC and for seemingly no reason. I have also replaced a couple of different kext files: Apple_iSight.kext and AppleUsbVideoSupport.kext with known good ones. I also Verified and Repaired on the disk. In this case, permissions issues were detected and repaired, but without fixing my original problems.
I would like desperately to resolve this without buying a new disk and doing a fresh install of OSX Lion. I would definitely NOT go back to Moutain Lion in this scenario. But I don't know what do next. I don't see many posts on this subject and those I have seen do not offer much hope. I know I am not the only one suffering with this, but I don't think Apple is addressing the problems, because they may not be pervasive enough right now.
If anyone has found a way to resolve this permanently, please share with me. I would like to roll back to Lion, but can't do that either.
Can anyone help me out?
Thanks,
Brad.

This is likely a conflict with some 3-rd party s/w you have on the MBP but not the other two computers. Have a look in here
 > System Preferences.. Users & Groups | Login Items
Is there something in here that's not in the same list on the other Macs? If so, try removing it and restarting your computer. If that solves the problem, try contacting the developer to see if there's an update.
If that doesn't solve the problem, go through your other 3rd party apps and look for updates on all of them. One of them is stopping your mouse from working properly.

Email not readable since upgrading to Mountain Lion

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I am not able to read my email in the upgraded version of Mail. All my emails ON MY MAC are readable as normal, but my Inbox emails are there and I can read the single line information (From, Subject, Date Received, Mailbox) for all my emails but when I try and open one I get the revolving spindle wheel and Loading message. My sent box appears empty unless I send a test email and then all my sent emails appear but again when I try and open one all I get is the same as for my inbox emails. If I quit and reopen Mail, the inbox does not change but all my sent emails "disappear" again. Is this an indexing problem or do I need to rebuild my mailboxes. Although I have back ups, I do not want to take any action to make this situation worse. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
When you start Messages fro the first time you are asked for an Apple ID
When this is verified and entered it appears in Messages Menu > Preference > Accounts and is Enabled.
The App should have also picked on on those iChat Accounst you had before.
These should be Enabled if they were when you last used iChat.
Exactly which "Accounts" are logged in can be seen in Message Menu > Accounts and will include the iMessage "Account" and Bonjour.
In the Window menu you will see CMD +0 for the Messages window and CMD+1 for the "Buddies" window which is a combined list at this stage.
Go to the Preferences > General Section and Untick the "Collect all accounts into one list".
This will give you separate iChat type Buddy lists.
You can check if that account/Buddy list is set to Invisible or if in the Preferences > Accounts > Security you have settings that will block some people from seeing you as On line.
You are saying Buddies can see you as On Line which implies they are still sending to your AIM based Names (@Mac.com is a valid AIM Screen Name)
I am not sure from your post if you are trying to iMessage their email IDs thinking they are Apple IDs and that they are using Messages as well.
There is no Buddy list for iMessages side
No-one can tell you are "On Line" until they have your details in the "To" spot in Messages with the correct iMessaged contact info (iPhone Number or Apple ID)
Obviously an Apple ID can be an email or look like one.
In some cases they are also valid AIM Screen Names as well.
In the case or the @mac.com name you may have linked this Apple ID to iMessages as well.

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my home wifi dies for all devices when I bring my MacBook Pro home.

The situation:
Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, the following sequence of events has happened with my laptop.
1. I come home from work.
2. I open the lid of my laptop.
3. I see the white "your comptuer's messed up" screen. I click a button to restart.
4. We lose wifi. This affects all devices.
5. I restart the router and modem.
Once it's restarted, I have no issues - until I leave for work and bring the computer back that night. I've checked the router and modem - no issues there, as it works perfectly for every other device in the house, and even works for the laptop perfectly (once they've been reset, that is).
Some notes of clarification:
1. The wifi does not die with any other device - this includes an iPhone 4S, iPhone 4 and an iPad 1.
2. BUT, when the wifi DOES die, it affects every device in the house.
3. My laptop does not do this with any other wifi - only my home wifi.
It seems to me that the correlation is in the initial connection. When my laptop initially tries to connect to our home wifi, it's as if it fries both the connection and the computer. I see a lot of issues with people losing wifi for their computer, or slow wifi, but I haven't seen anything that relates to this wifi death across all devices when the laptop is reawoken after being at work. It's like there's something messed up with the switch from work wifi to home wifi.
Please help!

Hi,
I had a similar issue with Time Machine after upgrading my iMac (where the Time Machine HDD is connected and shared from) to Mountain Lion. This was fixed by following the instruction from this site: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4700. It seems that Mountain Lion introduced a more secure network protocol which may not be supported (yet) by the network drive.
Hope this helps.

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine. This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message

Ever since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my AOL messages sometimes, but not always open with a blank page. If I open AOL in Firefox, the messages open fine. This does not happen with any messages by any means, and it is not any type of certain message. In fact, in the same screen I can often open an email from the same sender with email intact. This is weird. Sometimes I close the page and open a new page. Sometimes that works and sometimes it does not. It is a very annoying thing.

Problems with Mail (on O2) since upgrade to Mountain Lion

After having spent a frustrating few days trying to get this sorted, I thought I should make folk aware of the above problem. Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I have not been able to send email using smtp.o2.co.uk. The O2 call centre notes that a number of folk have been having this problem.
Some have suggested setting Custom Port to 25 but this hasn't worked for me.
Apparently O2 are going to get back to me within 5 days with an answer. I'm not holding my breath but am pleased to say I can still use my iPhone to send email.
Can't help but wonder if this has anything to do with the fact that I signed up for an iCloud (***@me.com) account at the same time.
Any thoughts?

I got a fix. it works for me. while i'm on ML. safari and mail doesn't work properly. mail can't send emails with attachment and safari unble to open certain webpages.
i've log into my Internet modem, enable router mode from bridge mode. it works fine now. no promlem with sending emails or surfing the web. hope it'll helpful for u guys.

Mysterious notification since upgrading to Mountain Lion

A couple of times since upgrading to Mountain Lion a popup has appeared that I don't understand. I suspect it relates to the Messages application, but I can't me sure.
Any ideas as to what it is and what i should do about it?

This popup have nothing to do with iMessage.
I just search a little bit on the web, and I found it to be related to LogMeIn software. I don't use this software but the description and the logo does fit.

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I cannot connect to my wireless router

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I cannot connect to my wireless router. I have 2 wireless networks in my home. One is the primary whuch all of my devices connect to. The other is for backup only. I cannot connect to the primary with my iMac but have no trouble with any of the other devices which include iphones and ipads.phones and iPads. I can however connect to the backup without a problem. I have tried upgrading the firmware of the router as well as changing the security from WEP to WPA-2, no luck. Can anyone help?

Try this, it's for information.
In Finder, open the Go menu, press and hold the option key, 'Library' will appear on the menu, click and scroll to Application Support, open the folder and scroll to 'AddressBook-v22.abcddb'. Click on the file and press Command-I. Towards the bottom you'll see Permissions, tell me what they are please.

SD card cannot be formatted or written to since upgrade to Mountain Lion.

Since upgrading to mountain lion, I cannot format (write) to any of my MS-DOS (FAT 32) formatted SD cards. Prior to the upgrade this was never a problem. Apple Genius bar and calls to support have been no help so far. Can someone here solve this issue ?

Hi and Welcome to the Forums! If by "device", you mean your BB, probably not. If, by "device", you mean the card, then probably yes. You can keep diagnosing by trying other things:
A known-good card in your BB
This potentially bad card in a different card reader
This potentially bad card in a known-good BB (one that for sure can read it's Media Card)
But, given how short a time you've had it, taking it in for evaluation might actually be your best bet.
Good luck!

HT1338 outgoing e-mail server not working since upgrade to mountain lion

unable to send mail on one of my e-mail accounts since upgrading to mountain lion

I had this problem as well after upgrading to 10.8.
For all e-mail accounts SMTP servers seemed to be unavailable to Mail, regardless of setting TSL/SSL on or off. It turned out, even Thunderbird was unable to send any mail.
After trying every hint on this forum twice – and to no avail; I found the culprit to my problem. Upgrading my iMac to Mountain Lion had changed the name, that my machine was using in my home network. The new machine name had "(2)" added to the old name. The brackets seem to have disturbed the SMTP servers I use. After changing the name back to anything w/o special characters I was able to send mail again.
Very strange, since no error message lead to this direction, and only the SMTP was affected, everything else on the internet worked like a charm.
So if you run into this problem, and no other solution works for you, make sure your LAN-name is not including any special characters, just letters, numbers and "-".
Mind you: the name I am relating to is not necessarily the one you give your Mac in System Preferences > Sharing. It is the name your home router derives from that name. I am using a Fritzbox as a router and DSL modem; and had to access its web interface to check the actual name that my iMac was using to communicate to the web. That's also where I had to change the name back again.
Don't know why ML caused the name to change in the first place, maybe the whole thing was unrelated and purely incidental to upgrading to 10.8. Using another router your mileage may also vary. You may still give it a try.

Scrolling Unbearably SLOW Since Upgrading to Mountain Lion

I have a LOT of Playlists set up in iTunes, and previously if I were trying to drag and drop a playlist onto my iPod, it was very easy - scrolling acted just like it did in every other program. However, since upgrading to Mountain Lion recently, it takes FOREVER to drag a Playlist from the bottom of the list all the way up to my iPod to copy the playlist to the iPod. I can't seem to find the "sweet spot" to make the scrolling MOVE - I drag up to the top of that window and usually it would begin scrolling up the playlists at a normal speed - but now when I point the cursor to the top of that window, it will scroll maybe 2 or 3 playlists and then "stall" - I have to jiggle up and down over and over to get it to move at all! It literally is taking over 2 minutes to get from the Z's to the top to drop to my iPod! This can't be right...??
Is this a bug? Or is there another way you're supposed to do this?

How bizarre is that??!! But yes, it worked for me, too. Just wish you could hold it instead of having to hit it over and over to keep the scrolling going.
Another "trick" I found by accident was that if you hold the cursor towards the top like you're trying to scroll up - but then drag it back and forth (left and right) - it causes the upwards scrolling to speed up.
