When is Mountain lion due out?
Does anyone know when OS Mountain LIon is due to be released? All I can find is July. Anything more specific?
July is a 31 day month so it could be anytime from now
until July 31, 11:59:59 PM.
Last year, Lion was released the day after the quarterly
earnings report call. FWIW, that is July 24 this year.

Does anyone know when os x mountain lion comes out exactly
does anyone know when os x mountain lion comes out exactly
Best guesses I've heard are between 19 July and 26th.
Since Lion came out on the 20th last year, I'm betting it won't be before that. It would be the first ever major OS release that hadn't even made it to a full year. Somehow, can't see Apple wanting that accolade. -
I'm trying to migrate from mobileMe to iCloud but I have Snow Leopard (the latest version). It looks like Lion is no longer available because Mountain Lion comes out next month (July). The problem is mobileMe ends on June 30th. How can I migrate?
My iphone and my ipad are compatible but when I try to go to icloud on my phone it says to do it on my computer.
I would like to have my calendar, contacts, etc.. all sync like they do now. Is there a way to upgrade before June 30th? If not, will the gap be an issue or will I just be able to buy mountain lion and sync everything?
Any suggestions?
Thank you!You can buy Lion in the App Store now, but move to iCloud now. If you wait to Mountain Lion, you will only have Mail in Snow Leopard, so you will lose syncing unless you use Lion or Mountain Lion. It's up to you

TS3925 Now that mountain lion is out, how do i get lion?
I didn't feel the need to update to lion, but now that mountain lion is out, it's apparent that I CAN'T update to lion. How do I find osx 10.7?
If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions. The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download.
You will need to have 10.6.8 already installed to use the Lion installer. I also suggest:
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. -

Someone at Apple knows what they have done in the past.
I am reluctant to buy Lion as we did not like the changes to mail and file saving when it first came out.
Firstly contact Apple and ask them. This is a user to user forum. No one here knows anything that Apple haven't told us yet.
And when you say ' we did not like the changes', do you mean that you have already purchased it and tried it in the past? Or how did you know that you didn't like the changes you mention?

No. OS X cannot do it. If you want to drive an Eizo at its full 10 bits per channel you need to use a Windows PC.

When is Mountain Lion going to extend to MacBook 2008?
When is Mountain Lion going to extend to MackBook 2008?
That would require speculation......and is not really allowed here.....besides Apple moves forward with their hardware and software and not backwards.....I would not count on your early 2008 MacBook (or mine) being able to run Mountain Lion ever......

What do I need to watch out for when installing Mountain Lion from scratch?
I feel like it's a good moment to erase everything from my computer and reinstall Mountain Lion. I'd like to know which things I should watch out for.
Most of my important stuff is located on an external hard drive. Some of the applications are located there as well, the other ones I can simply re-downloading, I don't mind this.
I have my whole iTunes library and my iPhoto library which obviously I'd like to keep. I'm also concerned about my text messages on my iPhone -- they're very important to me. And so are also my Notes, Reminders, and Contacts.
The thing is, I do not want to do a fresh install and then reload a backup. What would be the sense of making this? None I guess... I'm doing a fresh install becuase I believe there's lots of useless files and maybe even dangerous files on my Mac that I'd like to get rid of. I guess that if I would load the backup, they would all be here again...
Is it maybe possible to load only certain things from Time Machine, for example my iPhoto or iTunes library?
Maybe someone can help me here, totally new with this...Alright, I'm slowly getting ready to do this. Apparently I do not need an install DVD but I can just press CMD+R to get to the option to do a fresh install, that's why my Mac didn't come with an install DVD (that's what I've read and what I've been told at least).
Now I'm wondering... do I need to copy those items from the User folder at all? I mean, I have a complete backup on an external hard drive. I could just go there in the folders and select what I would like to copy to my Mac again, suchs as my music library or photo library. Is there any risks? I'm worried about even the smallest things, like creation dates changing and stuff like this. They mean something to me -
Can not Upgrade Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion due to Bootcamp
This is a long standing problem I had since I bought my Macbook Pro (a purchase now I deeply regret) almost two years ago.
I keep asking around every few months, to see if anyone came up with a good solution. I hope someone can help me this time
When I decided to buy my Macbook pro 10.6.8 with Snow Leopard, Apple said that the macbook would run smootly both in OSX and Windows due to bootcamp dual boot. I was quite happy about that,since my job requires me to use some Windows-only software and I was curious about apple products.
Unfortunately, they fail to mention (or maybe they did not foresee) that upgrading anything on both OSX or Windows would have been a true nightmare. Right off the bat I spent countless hours trying to upgrade my graphic card drivers in Windows. More problems arrived every time a new software/upgrade/driver/OS update was coming up. The final blow was the release of OSX Lion.
With a Bootcamp partition it is not possible to upgrade the OS from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion. The reason is because a recovery system can't be created. The only solution I found so far would be:
1) Buy two separate external HD
2) Backup individually OSX and Windows data
3) Re-install OS leopard
4) Upgrade to Mountain Lion
5) Creat a bootcamp partition
6) re-install Windows
7) re-install one by one any software on both OS (Matlab, Ansys, Office .... etc ... etc ... etc... [6-8 hours])
8) Restore all data
9) Wait for next OS release, DO IT AGAIN
Forgive me , but this is absurd. I simply refuse of waste so much time and money
Did anyone have the same problem and found a more cleaver way to solve it?
Thanks!!!!This was solved some time ago. See the following:
I saw a reference to an Apple bulletin on how to solve the problem if Lion rejects your install AND you have a BootCamp partition.
It seems the issue is that the space at the "bottom" of your available space when Lion installs it's partition is already occupied by BootCamp. The fix was to go into Disk Utility; Select your Hard Drive; Select Partition; Move the bottom of your main partition "up" a bit to create a space for Lion; close Disk Utility; Install Lion; once Lion is successfully installed, go back into Disk Partition and drag the bottom of your main partition back "down" to the bottom of the window.
You need to create a space about 2 GB in size. -
How does one see what tasks starts when on Mountain Lion?
I have had a beachball problem for a number of weeks now, and still can not figure out what is going wrong after four separate Support Desk people and one Genius Bar visit -- maybe you, my friends in the Apple Support Communities, can help decypher this.
Symptoms:
Invariably, my MacBook Pro (MacBookPro8,2) with Mountain Lion (10.8.2) -- after exactly one hourof work (59 minutes, 58 seconds and then...) suddenly goes into beachball mode. No warning -- no new processes -- nothing but the beachball on the dialog I am working on. Within the next minute, all dialogs are unresponsive and I have to hard reboot my computer.
What is surprising is that when the beachball happens and I restart the system, all of my cookies (e.g., my Facebook login cookie, my Google 2-factor) and other status bookmarks (e.g., where the video stops on iTunes) disappear.
And if I wish to prolong my computer time, I have to put the computer in Sleep Mode for about 5 minutes, come back and get an additional hour of work before the beachball returns.
Scarily, I have watched it happen - and tracked the Activity Monitor and see nothing that pops up at that time point. No additional memory taken, no additional CPU -- nothing.
What is surprising is that when the beachball happens and I restart the system, all of my cookies (e.g., my Facebook login cookie, my Google 2-factor) and other status bookmarks (e.g., where the video stops on iTunes) disappear.
Additionally, when I boot in Safe mode - my 16G of RAM is almost totally taken up (15.1Gs) by nothing. Simply that 15.1Gs are "wired". The largest process is the mds - and that is only 500M.
Prior Efforts:
I have inspected the disk with Disk Utility, done both the Internet Hardware check (since my Recovery partition did not have it) and at the Genius Bar (with their super-special hardware check) and no problems. I have removed Launch Agents and Launch Daemons. I have removed startup items and purged the drive.
I keep being told I will have to erase and reinstall, but I think there is something much simplier here: some software that is being triggered to do something one hour after awaking from sleep.
I saw some people suggest it could be f.lux, but I have turned it off and it still happens. Additionally, one of my people suggested it was the Time Machine, so I turned it off -- and it still happened.
Any ideas what could be the problem?

I cloud on my Imac with Mountain Lion - signing out means losing contacts, etc.
Help. I have tried to sign out of I cloud on my Imac with Mountain Lion but it says if I do so it will either delete my contacts, documents, etc. from the computer. Something is not right here. How can I prevent this from happening? Thank you.
You have to remember that your email, calendars and contacts live on the iCloud server, not on your Mac, and your Mac reads them from there (like webmail)*. So if you sign out, you don't affect the actual data in any way because it's still on the server, but your Mac loses access to it. When you sign back in it's all still there.
However, as Julian says, there is no reason to sign out unless you are actually having a technical problem that may be solved by signing out and in again. The whole idea is to stay signed in at all times.
*Just to clarify, your Mac maintains a cached copy of the data to speed things up, and so that you can still see it when you are signed in but have no internet connection; but this cache is deleted when you sign out. For practical purposes you can ignore it. As with all caches (and your Mac has a lot) it's hidden (hence the name) and can't be regarded as an actual copy. -
IWeb crashes when saving (Mountain Lion)
