  • Wifi printing after Mountain Lion upgrade, "printer not connected" error

    I have Canon MP610 printer.  Was getting error message "Looking for printer" or "Printer not connected" after upgrading to Mountain Lion 10.8.  Printing works fine when I directly plug in USB cord to MacBook Pro to print. However, on the wifi network, no luck.  Today I have upgraded Canon's latest driver, reset the printer system, deleted printers from system icon in System Preferences, added new printer back in..... Nothing.
    I have reset Time Capsule, where my printer USB is currently plugged into.
    Nothing.
    Please advise what to try next...??

    AirPort Utility 5.6 is available at AirPort Service and Support.
    5.6 doesn't work with Mountain Lion, so am I stuck?
    I already had AirPort Utility 5.6 on a Lion machine and upgraded to Mountain Lion with no issues. AirPort Utiliy 5.6 works fine as does AirPort Utility 6.1.
    But, I did not try to download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 since it was already on the Mac.
    Please try again and report on your results.

  • I only got second email for free OS X mountain lion upgrade

    I got approved for free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade but I haven't received first email that contain PDF file. but I got a email with password to open PDF.
    any idea?

    I received TWO OS X Mountain Lion Up-to-Date Password Emails, but no email with the PDF content code on July 27, 2012.
    The email said "If you did not receive an email from the OS X Mountain Lion Up-To-Date program with your content code, please check your spam filter settings for attachment restrictions and contact us at [email protected] to have this email and your content code re-sent."
    I checked my spam folder & didn't see anything. I emailed asking for the content code email to be resent, just like the email said. I got what I assume was an automated response on July 31, 2012 (4 days later). That email said:
    Thank you for contacting the OS X Mountain Lion Up-To-Date Support Team regarding your request to change the email address associated with your claim.
    In order to change the email address, please send the following information to [email protected]
    Your Claim reference number
    Original email address
    Revised email address
    Requester name:
    Requester address
    Requester phone number
    The reason I assumed it was automated is because the parts above in red were highlighted in my email. I emailed [email protected] again indicating that I just need the content code resent. I received the SAME automated email on August 2, 2012 (2 days later):
    Thank you for contacting the OS X Mountain Lion Up-To-Date Support Team regarding your request to change the email address associated with your claim.
    In order to change the email address, please send the following information to [email protected]
    Your Claim reference number
    Original email address
    Revised email address
    Requester name:

    Requester phone number
    Same email, just different parts highlighted.
    Apparently, email correspondence does not work since it thinks I want to change my email address. I'll have to call Apple Care directly to find out what is going on.

  • I am trying to buy Mountain Lion but I am getting this message: The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed.

    I just tried to buy Mountain Lion but I am getting this message, yes, even after I reboot: The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed.
    I don't understand what this means? Is my MacBookPro too old to work with Mountain Lion?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own.

    I am trying to purchase mountain lion but I get the following message:
    "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may bedamaged or was not signed."  Any help?

    Installing the appropriate combo update may help...
    If you are running v10..7 Lion, install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.4 (Client Combo)
    For 10.6 Snow Leopard >  Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    Then restart your Mac. Try the App Store.
    If that doesn't help, try the following..
    Quit the App Store if it's open.
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Click Go
    Move the NetworkInterfaces.plist file from the SystemConfiguration folder to the Trash.
    Relaunch the App Store and try downloading Mountain Lion.
    You may also need to disable anti virus software and turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security (or Security & Privacy) > Firewall

    I am trying to download mountain lion on my 2011 iMac; OSX 10.7.5.  It stops downloading after about 5 minutes (or 74 GB).  I've quit applications and signed back in, but continue to have the same problem.  Does anyone out there know what I can do to fix this problem?

    74G! Mountain Lion is less than 5G! and if you downloaded 74G in 5 minutes you have the fastest connection of all time, post again, read the numbers carefully.

  • How can I get Mountain Lion upgrade to download

    I am trying to upgrade my Snow Leopard OS X 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion and am not meeting with a lot of success.  The Mountain Lion upgrade will not load past 79.34MB of the 4.37GB dowload.  At this point the word 'Calculating' appear and the download  never gets any further.  My Broadband is not very quick as we are out in the sticks but I have not had this problem previously.  Any ideas?  Would it be possible to download to a stick on another computer and then install
    on my Mac?

    Thanks adamlong277 !!   I had the same problem.  Took your advice and downloaded 'hopstop shield'.   It immediately resumed and got past the 79.34MB point.  It looks like a nice feature to have in case anything like that happens again, especially as it's so easy to connect/disconnect 'hotstop shield' at anytime.   Appreciate your help

  • Getting S.M.A.R.T. when trying to install Mountain lion. Hard drive works pretty well. I understand that many users have been facing the same issue. Has apple patched it yet?

    I'm getting S.M.A.R.T. error when trying to install Mountain lion. Hard drive works pretty well despite the Failing status. I understand that many users have been facing the same issue. My hard drive was/is working perfectly. Has Apple patched it yet?
    Has someone found a solution which is not replacing the hard drive which works just fine? Or Is anyone aware of a procedure that can force the installation despite the S.M.A.R.T error? Below details of my hard drive

  • When trying to install Mountain Lion I get an error message, Failed, recovery can't be created

    When trying to install Mountain Lion I get an error message, Failed, recovery can't be created

    My Mountain Lion install failed for the following reason:
    OS X can't be installed on the disk Macintosh HD, because a recovery system can't be created.
    The message went on:
    Visit www.apple.com/support/no-recovery to learn more.
    The page is about a different failure, but I'm assuming the reason for my failure is this one:
    The disk has a non-standard Boot Camp partition setup, in which further partitioning was performed after running Boot Camp Assistant, or the configuration that Boot Camp Assistant created was manually modified.
    The cure involves erasing the entire HD and starting from scratch, which in my case would involve backing up both the Mac and Windows sides, setting up Boot Camp again, reinstalling Windows XP and recovering everything from backups on both sides. I would rather not have Mountain Lion than go through all that, and I think it's unfair for Apple to expect me to.
    Because I don't recall doing anything off-piste when I set up Boot Camp in the first place (for a start, I'm not clever enough), I consider this episode an inadequacy in the Mountain Lion installer. As I won't be using the download, is it possible to get my money back?

  • I updated my 2009 Mac to Mountain Lion yesterday but cannot add photos from my iPhoto library to contacts anymore. Drop down menu only shows "default, recent and camera" but I cannot get to iPhoto library.

    I upgraded my 2009 Mac to Mountain Lion yesterday but cannot add photos from my iPhoto library to contacts anymore. Drop down menu only shows "default, recent and camera" but I cannot get to iPhoto library. Help stated to choose Faces but I don't even get that far. How do I fix. Still works on iPad but not on Mac.

    When you have iPhoto and Contacts open and try to drag a picture for iPhoto to the Contacts photo frame do you get a + symbol? if not you should!  from there the the pop menu should appear and then you can select the picture and click on done
