What is going on with the Ariel Font in Mountain Lion for the iMac?

I have 10.8.1 on both my Imac and my MacBook Pro. The Ariel Font works on the MacBook Pro, but it is not listed on the Imac. There are other Ariel fonts with additional names that do work in the Imac. What is going on?
Thanks for your reponse.

The Arial Font works on the MacBook Pro, but it is not listed on the iMac.
By not listed, do you mean it doesn't show up in the font lists of apps you're using, or it literally isn't on the hard drive?
Look in the /Library/Fonts/ folder. That's the Library from the root of the drive, not in the System folder or your user account. Is Arial.ttf actually missing?

MobileMe is working partially, Apple says some users can't access to the web-apps (Mail, Calendar, etc.). In my case is working fine in my iPhone, in Outlook 2010, and I can only access the Mail app (Calendar and other functions are not working!).
Hope this gets fixed soon

I participated in getting the free download of Mountain Lion for new Mac owners. It took me three days to finally get a code to do it and when I tried downloading it, the estimated time was 74 days 17 hours. Now an error occurred. What do I do?

I am very frustrated and just want the great software to download in a resonalbe time!

Take your Mac to a location with a fast, relaible Internet connection that will be all yours during the duration of the download.
If you want to complain, PLEASE call Apple and do so.
Internet only downloads of OS X is completely stupid, it assumes everyone has reliable Internet everywhere and /or no data caps.

If I upgrade my leopard computer to snow leopard via an old update disc, can I then upgrade to Mountain Lion for the $20 deal?

If I upgrade my leopard computer to snow leopard via an old update disc, can I then upgrade to Mountain Lion for the $20 deal?

Yes, provided your computer meets the system requirements and you have updated Snow Leopard to 10.6.8:
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store.
Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Read the technical specifications.
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)

Make Your Own Mountain/Lion Installer
1. After downloading Mountain/Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Mountain/Lion application. After Mountain/Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Mountain/Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
3. Locate the saved Mountain/Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the content of the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
Double-click on the InstallESD.dmg file to mount it on your Desktop.
Open Disk Utility.
Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Drag the mounted disc icon from the Desktop into the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable installer that you can use without having to re-download Mountain/Lion.
Note: The term Mountain/Lion used above means Lion or Mountain Lion.
As an alternative to the above you can try using Lion DiskMaker 2.0 that automates the process.

How do I shut down from the login window in mountain lion using the keyboard

how do I shut down/sleep/restart from the login window in mountain lion using the keyboard?

Hi Thomas, thanks for your reply.
Yes in standard start-up as it is and in recovery mode I still get the same message about Disk Utility being unable to repair the disk so I should back-up and restore.
Some posters have said that booting into safe mode should unmount the installer and allow rebooting back into Lion, that would allow me to back-up the files properly, as my last back up was (as is often the way) not too recent.
But I think your suggestion looks more likely to be he correct way to do it, and I'll take the hit on any data that I may lose.
Thanks again.

I am using Leopard but need Mountain Lion for the Mac App Store. How do I get Snow Leopard to be able to upgrade to Mountain Lion?

I am currently using Leopard but need Snow Leopard to be able to get Mountain Lion. I can see this is no longer available from Apple. How would I get it so I could then get Mountain Lion. I want the Logic 9 Mac App Store App as I don't want to have to buy the whole Logc 9 from Studio 8.
Some help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Adam

I cannot download the OS X Mountain Lion for the Mac Mini

I purchased a Mac Mini last week and cannot install the latest version of Mountain Lion. This is preventing me from installing the current version of Aperture. I read on cnet.com that this is an issue. Has Apple provided a fix?
Thanks, Mark

The update was available last week and Apple removed it; I'm sure there was a reason why they did that.
In any case, there are two different builds of 10.8.2 - that is why one version is and will be available since it is for the majority of machines out there. That build is 12C60 (and is running on my 2010 iMac). Only some 2012 machines such as yours require a special build which is the one that was taken off for the moment (before it disappeared, that was build 12C3006).
So, try to be patient; hopefully they're working on it and the update will be available asap.

How comes that, having everybody issues with infinitely long backups (combining mountain lion on new imac and time capsule) apple doesn't fix it? (my time machine forecasts not less than 6/8 days to complete the first one, 350 gig transferred from a pc,).

Within 6 days someone will switch off the machine, or power will go off, or some error will occur. I will have a backup when I'll have to replace this new Imac....

Always do the first backup at least over ethernet.. even if you have to use the TC in complete isolation from the network. You should be able to do that backup in about 6-8hours, ie overnight.
The setup is easy.. in complete isolation.. if you have no ethernet from the imac.. just use a short patch lead.. plug LAN port of the TC into the iMac. Turn off wireless in the imac. Make sure the airport utiity can locate the TC, if not press reset on the TC and it will go back to router mode.. ignore all the errors .. just locate the hard disk is working.. start up TM and point it to the TC.. do the backup.
Once this backup is done.. the hourly incrementals over wireless should take just a couple of minutes. Although if you are manipulating very large files then you may need to consider getting better connection, either using 5ghz wireless which is much faster but might need extender.. or ethernet or ethernet over power type adapters.

HT1338 Where do I enter the code to download Mountain Lion for free?

I have obtained my password for a free mountain lion upgrade on my new computer but can not figure out where I go to input the information to download?

First, make sure you got the right password - it should be an 8 - or maybe 12 - digit code with only numbers, and no letters or dashes. If you have something with letters and/or dashes, that is not the code.
Once you have the code, go to the App Store, click on the "Featured" tab on top, and the "Redeem" link on the right side. Enter your code, and you'll be on your way.

Can I redeem the $20 after purchasing Mountain Lion for my new Macbook Pro

Hey there, I purchased a Macbook Pro in late June 2012, reading the redeem page for Mountain Lion 2 weeks ago it stated to come back after making a purchase of Mountain Lion, so I purchased the update and now realised i could of downloaded it for free, is it possible to get a rebate from Apple, or did I just waste $20????

Apple most likely won't give 20 dollars of store credit....you can always call them but I doubt they will let you redeem...in the end they want your money..

What's Going On With This Forum? Posted comments wait for a moderator

They wait, and wait, and wait, and wait.
Whose policy is this to screen everything before allowing posts to show up? Is that a Toshiba policy? What is Toshiba afraid of? If this is a Toshiba policy, I object. I object very strongly. Strongly enough that I'm just about tempted to pack up the mini notebook and ship it back to B&H and buy a different brand where the manufactor doesn't censor the support forum.
Let's see if this shows up.

Hello Edmund
To be honest I don't understand your question. As I can see you have posted 40 times until now.
Be honest and tell us how often you saw message like this:
*Please note, your reply will need to be approved by a moderator before it is posted in the forum.*
Probably first time now. I have noticed that sometimes forum is closed for postings but there must be some reason why moderator do this. At the moment you can write what you want.
There is no reason for panic or comments about Toshiba policy.
Every serious forum has own policy and this forum is more than serious. Isnt it?
So it is nothing unusual and it can be done due to some technical or any other reason.
Look a little bit what people write here and you will find very critical postings but nothing is blocked or edited by Toshiba so I think this forum is free and democratic. Your posting is also published.
In my opinion it is the best evidence that your critic and opinion about this forum and Toshiba forum policy is completely unjustified. Do you agree with me?
Good luck!

HT201343 What's the technical reason for Apple not supporting AirPlay Mirroring in OS X Mountain Lion for earlier iMac's?

Apple support was of little help...

How can I see the entire url in the address bar in Mountain Lion including the http or https?

I recently updated Safari and now when the url of the site I am visiting shows up in the adress bar...it is minus the http or https so I am unaware fo whether the site is secure or not. How can I enable Safari to show me the entire url each and everytime I visit a webpage? Like before??

Users can revert to the old behavior by setting '''browser.urlbar.trimURLs''' to '''false''' in '''about:config'''. 
 
 
To change this preference: 
 
type about:config in the Location/URL bar and press Enter. 
if you see a warning, accept (promise to be careful) 
Filter: browser.urlbar.trimURLs 
in lower panel, double-click that item to toggle value to false
