What has happened to snooze in mountain lion?

I know this might look trivial, but my life runs on alerts and reminders. In OS X 10.6 (Leopard) alerts would popup with an option to set the snooze for differnt time periods. This was very useful as I could dismiss certain reminders for hours, days or weeks. Mountain Lion seems to have lost this very functionality.
I've looked in settings, but can see no way to add this functionality back in. If it is possible can someone advise how to do it. If it's not possible, can Apple please look at adding it back in. All the snoose button needs is a little drop down with snooze delay options.
Thanks

No there are no jokes here. This is just broken software.
One way to work around this stupid change would be to set a double reminder. Let's say I have the yearly service for my car scheduled 4 weeks from now. I could then add one reminder for the day before so I remember that tomorrow is the day. And I could add one reminder that reminds me the morning after to drive to the garage (to avoid remembering it on the high way to work).
So far so good. Now I have a double reminder.
When the first reminder pops up 4 weeks has gone with an infinite number of other reminders and iCal events in between. I have no idea at this point if I added a second reminder for the morning after. My memory is not that good unfortunately.
So at this point I have three choices.
A) Hit snooze until I break down in a psychosis
B) Click the Go away button hoping I will be reminded the next morning.
C) Double click the **** notice and make sure in iCal.
None of this is of any Apple standard at all. It's rubbish.
If they decided that we should use multiple reminders they must of course show this information on the notice that pops up. Like this:
Take the car to service
(Next reminder will be at 8 AM)
But they didn't include this either.
Rubbish.

What has happened to 'select' in Mountain Lion?

I have two problems with selecting in Mountain Lion.
1. I can no longer drag select on Mail and other rpograms. I have to do a cmd A and then delete in the trash, for instance. I used to beable to select all of the items with a mouse drag.
2. Even when I do a cmd A, if I then right click to open, for instance, I find that it has selected the one item that is under the mouse pointer rather than all of the selected items.
Is there somewhere that I can put back these to the old way?
David

I'm experiencing the same problem 1 in Mountain Lion's Mail, but not in other apps (tested the Finder and Contacts) where click+drag still works as it used to selecting adjacent items in the list.
It seems that in Mail the setting of verticalMotionCanBeginDrag has been changed to YES.
As for point 2 I can't confirm your report. I can open all selected items with right click.
Best,
Erne.

What has happened front row app on lion

what has happened to front row app on lion?

Front Row has been dropped from Lion. Other posters have reported success in copying the Front Row application from a Snow Leopard system and having it work, but there may be undiscovered issues.

What has happened to iCal in OS X Lion?

I use iCal for all my events and since upgrading to Lion I have been experiencing majorproblems:
When double-clicking on an event to open it up, sometimes the event appears for a fraction of a second and disappears. A further double click is then required to open the event.
If I use copy and paste to duplicate an event, the pasted event will go to the date where it was copied from not the date where the mouse pointer is located. If I paste an event into a different month, the event goes to the same date as the original (but in the new month), not the date where the mouse pointer is located.
I have had problems with events that have disappeared after they have been created on my iMac. The events can be seen in my MobileMe account, on my MacBook, on my iPhone, on my iPad and even on my PC where I share calendars in Outlook. But they do not show on the iMac where the event was created.
I use several calendars, when events are copied and pasted, the original calendar sometimes changes.
I have noticed that a single click on a date in the month or week view no longer highlights that day.
None ofthese problems existed with OS X Leopard or Snow Leopard. What has happened to iCal in OS X Lion?
Please help.

Hi after upgrading to mountain lion my mail rules keep disappearing this has only happened since i installed mountain lion.

Hi after upgrading to mountain lion my mail rules keep disappearing??? this has only happened since i installed mountain lion.

I had Mountain Lion on two Macs. Mail rules were set up on a third Mac running Lion. I migrated everything on the Lion Mac across to a new iMac running Mountain Lion so now I have Mail rules on a Mountain Lion Mac. At least I should have. Several times a day the rules disappear. I assume this is iCloud synching messing up. I keep re-entring the rules but they vanish again and I'm getting tired of the game.
Large chunk of my Safari bookmarks bar also disappear at random intervals. It seems that iCloud can handle two Mountain Lion Macs on the same Apple ID, but can't cope with three.

If I buy a MacBook pro now, what will happen with it once the Lion OS makes it's appearance? Will I need to buy a new one again?

Lion will run on most Intel machines. It will not run on the following machines:
MacBook Pro (sold before October 2006)
MacBook (sold before November 2006)
Mac Mini (sold before August 2007)
iMac (sold before September 2006)
It requires an Intel Core 2 Duo (or later CPU). Those machines listed above were all Intel Core Duo machines and with the exception of one of the Mac Minis, an Intel Core Solo. So we're talking 4+ year old machines. I have not tested Lion on a machine with anything less than 2GB of RAM.
Wikipedia has a pretty good public summation of what's known so far and it's quite accurate - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X_Lion
The biggest thing of note so far is that you cannot install/run Rosetta. Which maybe problematic for some users.

I don't know what has happened but I can't open iPhoto. When I try to open it I receive a caution "The iPhoto Library is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have permission to make changes to it." How do I solve this??!!

I don't know what has happened but I now can't open iphoto. I get a caution when I try which says the iphoto library is locked! It was working perfectly fine this afternoon until I tried to upload some photos from my camera and my computer started to run very slow and wasn't recognising my camera. I tried to quit iphoto and then when I came back in to it, this was the message I received. As far as I am aware I didn't alter any settings or put on any locks. Please help!!

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

While I don't use a Mac, I belive you connect the device to the computer via USB and then import the file using a file utility similar to what you do when you import digital pictures. I'm guessing that the Mac has something like this?

I use to stream music from my iphone to my airport express via my stereo, it no longer is an option on the radio app. what has happened?

Not sure what has happened to my airport expres but I can no longer stream music to my stereo via the TuneIn Radio app or using my macbook pro, need help in fixing this problem.

UPDATE:
I have been stress testing StreamToMe in the house and "out in the wild" and it is working very well. There are one or two clunky steps in order to switch from the in-my-house wifi to the cellular network but it's just better (to me) than uploading about 750 GB of music that is restricted by iTunes rules and limitations to "the cloud". The major advantage is that this solution plays more file formats than iTunes will. In addition, I can access music files anywhere on my mac - even if they are not in my iTunes library. Playlists from iTunes are available, too.
I am not associated with this company in any way. I am astounded that there are not more solutions available and that there are not more people discussing this issue. Subscription models like Spotify are great and the cloud is fine for those that don't have large libraries But when I have a humongous library and I don't want to move it around up and down to someone else's server or pay to access it after I have already paid for it I find the lack of ease of doing this baffling.
I hope that this info can help someone looking for information relating to this type of solution...

Once I downloaded the new IOS 5.0 I've lost all of my photos that were stored on my PC, and I no longer have access to them on the IPOD. Cannot figure out what has happened. Please help.

Thanks lllaass, but I am not computer literate and do not understand exactly what it is I am supposed to do. All of my photos were stored on Microsoft Windows Live Photo Gallery. When I now access the gallery the only thing that is there are the folders with the title of the folders. The pictures that were in those folders are now gone. I can no longer access them on my IPOD either. My photo library on my IPOD is now empty.
Thanks again for your help.

TS4009 I am not able to open iCloud from my settings, Sirs says I don't have iCloud installed what has happened?

I am not able to open iCloud from my settings, Sirs says I don't have iCloud installed what has happened? I have an email saying my device can't be backed up because my I cloud is full, and telling me to go to settings to manage it, but my iCloud button is in light grey instead of black and unresponsive.

Go to Settings>General>Restrictions>Accounts (near the bottom) and set this to Allow Changes. You will then be able to access Settings>iCloud again.

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.
