Will I need to update from Mountain Lion (10.8.4) to Mavericks prior to the Yosemite rollout this fall?

I am running Mountain Lion (10.8.4) currently. I rolled back to Mountain Lion from Mavericks back in October 2013 because I was having problems with it. However, I've heard there are improvements to Maverick since my initial install. My question is will I need to update from Mountain Lion to Maverick in order to update to Yosemite this fall? Thanks in advance.

If your goal is to install Yosemite upon its release, I doubt you will need to do it from Mavericks.
If Mountain Lion does not have features you need and Yosemite will, then, as WZZZ suggest, give Yosemite a chance to have any bugs worked out first.
If your concern is security, Mavericks is the current OS but Apple is still providing Security Updates for Lion, so Mountain Lion should still be good to go for a while yet.

Updates from Mountain Lion 10.8.3 to 10.8.4 on my iMac Intel Core i7 are giving me problems.

I recently updated my Mountain Lion 10.8.3 to 10.8.4 on my iMac Intel Core i7. Now I am experiencing all sorts of problems.
1. It won't recognize my phone: Under the last OS I used to just plug in my phone and it would automatically recognize it and give me a desk icon. Now, nothing. I am forced to use bluetooth, which is so time consuming, to off load my photos. I even tried lauching iPhoto first and then plugging in my smart phone, and it would not recognize it.
2. Clicking on files or folders on the desktop acts as if I have the shift or command key engaged and highlights all the ones I clicked on, instead of just releasing the last file I clicked on when I click on the next file.
3. My mouse keeps disappearing all of a sudden. So I have to keep moving my mouse around until the cursor finally becomes visable.
4. Some applications, when clicked on in the dock, open a new window as if the computer has lost the path as where to find the original except I don't get an error message saying the alias needs to be fixed. It just opens Applications.
These are the most annoying things that are happening since I have upgraded my iMac. Number 1 is the most important thing now as my videos are taking hours to off load.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Eric... I restarted my iMac in Safe Mode. It gave me the option of Me or Guest. I chose Me. It started up. I ran Disk Utility and I noticed that the repairs of permissions were focused on my scanner and printer. Nothing else. Restarted. Noticed that the mouse issue is fixed. Yay! Folder issue is fixed. Yay! Application/path finding also seems to be back to normal. Yay!
My Smartphone will still not mount. Disk Utility did not recognize the phone. Going into About This Mac showed me that it can recognize the phone via Bluetooth. Under About This Mac>Hardware>USB, it also sees the phone. So why is it not mounting like before? Or what is the next step? I read those articles you attached in your initial response.

How to remove xcode 4.3.3 update from mountain lion Appstore

Hello,
I moved my old xcode 4.3.1 installation from the application folder to the trash. I also deleted /Developer (prevoius xcode installations)
Now the AppStore want to update to xcode 4.3.3. But I can't update, because I installed mountain lion. For mountain lion I use xcode 4.4 and 4.5 beta's.
How can I remove this update 4.3.3 from the AppStore??
Thanks
Andreas

That's life. You will probably always have that Xcode in there and Lion too. The App Store keeps track of its apps. If you install something newer on your own, the App Store can't handle that. See if you can hide the purchase: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928

There are too many questions "like" mine, so here it is: I updated from Mountain Lion to Yosemite, I can't open iphoto 9.1.5, I am directed to the app store, I "accept" iphoto upgrade and enter my credentials, but no update occurs. :-(

Attempting iPhoto upgrade from 9.1.5 to 9.5.

How many questions like yours should there be? What exactly do you expect the volenteers here to do about what you personally consider "too many questions"?
To move to iphoto 9.6 (required for Yosemite) You must log in to the App store using the Apple ID that was used to set up the compter (or purchase the application if it was purchased later), backup your iPhoto library and then download and install iPhoto 9.6 from the App store
If that is not working then you must contact App store suport - link is on the right of the App store window

Can i install a ilife '09 i need iweb and idvd?

1. Probably not. Back up anyway; any random event, whether related to the installation or not, may cause data loss.
2. See above.

Apple TV icon is not showing on macbook pro after update to Mountain lion

I wanted to try Mirroring from my macbook pro to my tv using the new airplay update from Mountain lion but the icon is not showing after the update.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

Can't install from application install dvd and i can't update to 10.6.8 after i restore my macbook pro from mountain lion

can't install from application install dvd and i can't update to 10.6.8 after i restore my macbook pro from mountain lion. when restart and i press command it still has recovery mountain lion show on my screen.

What model is the MBP? Did it come with OS 10.6 or a later OS? Is the install DVD one that came with it or something else?
You can't run an OS older than Mac on it.
But if came with 10.6 installed & you have the system discs, you should be able to erase the drive & reinstall the original OS.

Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
Reinstalling Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Since updating my Mac Book Pro from Mountain Lion to Maverick the computer is running slowly. Its slow to open and slow to download

Hi since updating my Mac Book Pro from Mountain Lion to Maverick the computer is running slow

When you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above. Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first. Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).

UPDATING OSX MOUNTAIN LION ADOBE VIEWER. recently received e-bill statement. could not view. site recommended updating adobe viewer. as this feature comes OEM from Apple, how is this accomplished?

UPDATING OSX MOUNTAIN LION ADOBE VIEWER. recently received e-bill statement. could not view. site recommended updating adobe viewer. as this feature comes OEM from Apple, how is this accomplished? Note, this was an online view for the PDF document.

Thanks for your help. Final question. So I am assuming that PDF funcitonality is accomplished via Preview. I assume then that the PDF creation in Mail is also similarly accomplished, that is not via an Adobe product, but equivalent funcitonality. I see now that I can download Adobe. But, does the Apple PDF equivlant provide updates to keep up witht the new encoding structures released by Adobe, so that I can only update the Apple equivalent, or is this not practical because Apple would be chasing Adobe for software updates?

Images missing from Mountain Lion after latest update

After the most recent update with Mountain Lion (if I recall it had something to do with iPhoto), images wouldn't load up anymore in sites such as facebook and twitter and applications like iTunes and the App Store.
Attached below are screenshots. As you can see, neither the App Store nor iTunes show any images. I've tried restarting my computer as well as the internet (just in case it was an internet problem) but neither would do the trick.
Any thoughts?

I would recommend that your reboot while simultaneously holding down the Command - R keys to boot into the Mountain Lion Recovery Partition. There, go to Disk Utility and select the "Macintosh HD" in the list at the left and then run "Repair Disk", and then run "Repair Permissions" twice. Then return to a normal boot and that may have solved the issue.
Hope this helps

Your wifi problem sounds very much like the problem I had. The wifi would drop out, the icon showed it was still connected. If I turned it off, I couldn't turn it back on. Another user here pointed me to the problem, which was the wifi cable (the flat cable goint from the card to the motherboard). I found it on ebay for $13 and it's been running fine since I replaced it. This is the repair guide for your machine. The part number will be on there if you click the link.
