Do you know why new mailboxes I create do not appear in alphabetical order? They appear below all other mailboxes and I have to manipulate them into their proper place. This apparently started when I upgraded to Mountain Lion. Any help would be much appreciated, as it's annoying and time consuming.

My mailboxes are not showing up in the viewing area. When I create a new mailbox they are listed. How do I restore them in the mail view?

My mailboxes are not visible. When I go to add a new mailbox they are visible when asked where to put the new mailbox. If I lost them how do I get them back if possible. I have played around with everything that I can think of but with no luck.

I have sorted it myself!!
Ipod is now in the top right corner, last time I clicked on it, it ejected it but by clicking on the actual ipod icon then it brings up your ipod. I restored it to factory settings and synced all my music and it now works again. Hope this can help anyone who ends up with the same problem.

HT4628 My macbook pro will not automatically reconnect to the wifi after a sleep. This has started after having upgraded to mountain Lion (10.8).

Hi
After I have installed Mountain Lion (10.8) - my macbook pro will not connect automatically to my preferred wifi network. It used to do that on the previous versions. It seems that the mac does not recognize the preferred network, as it asks me to choose a network after evey sleep/restart. I have modified the network preference to have my preferred netwrok at the top of the list. I have tried with/without checking the "ask me before joining a new network". It still behaved the same.
Thanks
Eitan

Try making a new network connection and renewing the DCHP lease as detailed here:

You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup. If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup. You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone. However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

HT1444 I am using Mac os x 10.5.8 does this version allow for an upgrade to mountain Lion

I am currently using mac os x 10.5.8 Does this version allow for an upgrade to Mountain Lion?

Snow Leopard Purchase
If you are unsure exactly what year your Mac is, check the model number.
Model Numbers
You also might want to check application compatability since PowerPC applications aren't supported.
Application Compatibility
If you can't upgrade to Mountain Lion, here are the requirements for Lion.
Computer Compatibility - Lion
If you have applications that you want to use that aren't compatible, you can retain Snow Leopard and create a new partition to install Mountain Lion on.

I just bought a new Mac, and i cant seem to update to Mountain Lion, any idea's as to why?

i just bought a new Mac, and i cant seem to update to Mountain Lion, any idea's as to why? also i can not seem to download pages from the app store, any idea's on why, please help!!

You need to describe more clearly what you are trying to do and how it is failing.
Was your mac new, or just new to you? What OS did it come with? Lion? Snow Leopard?
Have you already bought Mountain Lion? If so, are you using the same Apple ID that you used for your purchase?
What are you seeing in the App Store? Come to think of it, are in the MAC App Store? (not to be confused with the iTunes App Store!).
If you give answers to these questions we may be able to help!

My new mac mini does not see usb drives, but in hardware info the usb is visible

my new mac mini does not see usb drives, but in hardware info the usb is visible
i'tried several usb flash drives even brand new ones, they are visible onder hardware info but they are not on the desktop nor in the finder.
what is wrong and doe anyone has a solution ?

It does not show up in disk utility, its only visible through systeminformation.
When you plug in the USB flash drive and then refresh systeminformation it becomes visible.
To remove it I shut down the computer because I cannot eject the USB device anywhere.
After starting up again when I have removed the flash drive it has gone from the systeminfo USB list.
By the way my USB mouse and keyboard are working fine, I also changed ports of these and they still keep on working so I don't think the USB ports are defect.
I guess it some kind software problem, and because I'm new to Apple I do not know much about it how to solve this.

Is there a way to increase the icon size (and the text below) without using zoom? I am trying to help out someone who has moderate visual impairment that does not want to use zoom just to see the icons and their labels.

Is there a way to increase the icon size (and the text below) without using zoom in iOS 7? I am trying to help out someone who has moderate visual impairment that does not want to use zoom just to see the icons and their labels.

Hello Apple.
It seems you have gone to great lengths to improve accessibility in many areas of the iPad. Why was this obvious problem with icon text size missed? (It's not with the Mac.). And for so long too.
Do you employ people with actual accessibility problems to help you do UI design?
I think too, that some buttons are too close for people who might have motor control problems.
I love my iPad but I fear as I age, the iPad might not keep up with me.

When I create a new mailbox in mail.app, the mailbox does not appear in the list of mailboxes

I am trying to create a new mailbox in mail.app, but it never appears in the list of mailboxes. This USED TO WORK.

Without seeing anything of what you did there is not much to go on except to say that when you create a classic tween you use a library-based object and it has to exist at both ends of the tween. When motion guides come into play you usually have to fiddle around when making the link between the object and the motion guide to get the object to lock to it.

When I open a new app, it does not appear in the dock.

After upgrading to mountain lion, apps don't appear on the dock when I open them. I also am not getting new mail notifications on my mail icon. I've checked preferences>notifications and everything seems to be right.

Don't know why...restarted...logged in as guest...logged in as me. Problem solved.

When I create a new album, why does iPhoto 11 separate pictures into untitled albums?

When creating a new album, why does iphoto 11 separate pictures into untitled albums? I want all designated photos in the album i created..

I'm guessing you're missing the album in the left hand pane by just a bit and thus creating new albums for each of the photo you're dragging. Make sure the album is highlighted as in this screenshot (iPhoto 9.4.2) before releasing:
A sure file way to get an album with the photos is to select the photos again and use the File ➙ New Album menu option
and that will produce a new album with the photos that were selected.

Just want to ask about the full screen icon that used to be on the play bar but seems to have disappeared since upgrade to mountain lion, any way to get it back?

Since upgrading to mountain lion I've noticed the full screen icon which used to be on the playback bar in quicktime has gone, I know you can go to the menus to make it full screen but if you're watching something online like with apple trailers I can't seem to make them fullscreen anymore, is it me or have they just taken this option away now?

I've been playing the trailers in my browser and the full screen option has gone for me,
As already stated, the icon was replaced by the "Share" pop-up menu icon in the same location.
and the command-f keys don't work either when I'm playing in a browser and it's truly only been since I upgraded to mountain lion.
Strange! It works for me. Here is a link to a screen recording of me wayching a trailer in Safari and later watching a trailer download. In both cases the trailer could be expsnded for full screen viewing and then reduced back to the size of the original 720p player display screen. If you can't do this then you may have a player problem also.

Why did apple make these changes when they worked perfectly the old way, I mean if it ain't broke don't fix it!
Only Apple whould know for sure but my guess would be that other users may have requested the "Share" pop-up more. Makes no difference to me because I normally use the key shortcuts anyway.

I can't start apache since upgrading to Mountain Lion

Why Apple remove the web sharing feature I'll never understand. I have tried everything I've found on the web to get apache started but nothing seems to work. Apache started for a brief period of time but now it won't start at all. sudo apachectl start/tsop/restart all seem to work with no errors but when I go to localhost I get the "Safari can't find the server" error page. I've rebuilt my user.conf file, I've tries forcing org.apache.plist to start (took me a while bu tI think I've finally undone this bad idea). I've even tried OSX Server but even that was causing problems and to recreate my multisite setup I was using under apache in Lion would be like using an atomic bomb to take care of an ant hill in my back yard. I'm no apache server admin so while I can read the aache logs in console I'm not entirely sure what I should be looking for to see if an error is occuring. A cursory glance seems to show nothing more then the obvious things like "File does not exist". Thanks, of course you don't think the file exists beacuse the server isn't running. Any suggestions on how I could nuke apache and return it to its default state in either Lion or Mountain Lion?

I see what you mean now that I look. I also installed Server.app and myWeb Sharing option is gone from the Sharing prefpanel. I wonder if it still appears for those who never installed Server.app?
The previous Apache setup is still there in the old location at /private/etc/apache2/ and serves files from /Library/WebServer/Documents/ The problem is that Server.app overrides the launching system for the old setup. You may need to go to the file at /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.serverd.plist and rename it by appending an "X" to the end which will prevent it from launching. When you reboot you won't be able to log into the Server.app. You should then be able to run launchctl and start Apach from the file at /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist . If that file is missing report back here and we'll figure out what's wrong.

My mac book pro (2.66Ghz Intel core i7 4Gb ram) crashes every time I open iPhoto, browse photos or videos from Finder and work with slides, this started after I upgraded to mountain lion, what can I do??

I updated my OS to mountain lion and since then my mac book pro is virtually useless, seeng pictures, videos, using graphics applications and Iphoto is impossible, the screen goes black, and the system restarts.
This even happens sometimes at login, the login screen appears then the computer crashes and restarts, sometimes more than once, yesterday it even happened 6 times in a row before I was actually able to enter the password and log in.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal 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 Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
Copy (command-C) the selected text to the Clipboard. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered. You can do that by copy-and-paste as well. Omit the final line ending in “$”. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}'
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. It won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'
Step 4
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null
Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal.
