Why do I have to click 'Open' to open an application or document, when previously in Tiger, all I had to do was click on the line or image in Flow?

I've only had OSX 10.8.2 this last month, but I've found that whenever I want to open a document, I have to click 'Open' in 'Perform tasks with the selected item' function (The gearwheel with dropdown arrow). When I had Tiger, all I had to do was click on the document and it would open. Am I missing something
that would make my experience with Mountain Lion simpler?

Hi sig, I was only referring to flow because that is just an alternative use to clicking on the line that the document shows on in either line view, but since asking the question, I have discovered that what I was missing was to double click on the line and the document opened.

In the past, the downloaded file used to stay in the download window. all i had to do was click on it to open it. now, when the download is complete, the loaded file disappears from the download window. how do i get it to stay, as before?

i must have changed some parameter somewhere in my attempt to make my computer more secure. i'm not sure which parameteter needs to be reset.

You can not run executable files from the download dialog, this is a security measure.
If you want to bypass this security measure you can use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/207/ OpenDownload] add-on. This add-on has not been updated for a couple of years, but somebody has made a newer version, also called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10902/ OpenDownload], but this version has not yet been reviewed by Mozilla.

Eli,
You can reset a Password (lost/forgotten) set on your Mac using 'Reset Password Utility' available with OS X Utilities tool. With OS X Mountain Lion, OS X Utilities tool can be generally found on a local hidden Recovery HD Partition if your Mac has one.
To check If your Mac has got a local hidden Recovery HD Partition, start your Mac holding COMMAND + R buttons. If you hold the keys pressed enough and there is a local Recovery HD Partition on your Mac, you will be presented with OS X Utilities window.
Click the 'Tool' menu item and choose 'Reset password'. Terminal window appears. Type 'resetpassword' into it and press 'Enter'. Reset Password window appears with User Account Names available on your Start-up Volume. Select the User Account Name and rest is simple to follow.
One of the advantages of this method is that it does not require any Authorization method such as administrative authentication to reset a password.
NOTE: If your Mac does not have a local hidden Recovery Partition on its system disk, you can create one using Disk Assistant application available from Apple. Search for the Disk Assistant in the support area.

I have four devices on one Apple ID, i have separate emails and phone numbers for each device but when I tried to add one to my iPod, it said that the email was already in use.

I have four devices on one Apple ID, i have seperate emails and phone numbers for each device but when I tried to add one to my iPod, it said that the email was already in use. I have tried many things and the only guess I have is that either someone else has this email as their iMessage but is fake or it wasn't taken off my old iPod when I reset it. Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks but that doesn't give me the information I need. I am putting an email on my ipod for people to contact me for iMessage and FaceTime but when I put the email in, it gives me an error saying that the email cannot be veirified because it is already in use. My Apple ID can be varified, just not the email that they will contact me with.

I have Photo Stream enabled with Automatic downloads enabled. Yet when I try to join a Photo stream I get referred to The I Cloud start support page - this happens for both my Mac and my IPad. What can I do?

The following is from this Apple Document: iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
What do I need to use Photo Stream?
To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 6.0 or later
Mac with OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 or later and iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later
PC with Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later for Windows
Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.1 or later
You can still use Photo Stream without Shared Photo Streams if your devices meet these requirements:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later
Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and iPhoto 9.2.2 or Aperture 3.2.3 or later
PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
Apple TV (2nd generation) with Software Update 5.0 or later

10.7.4 is the latest update of MacOS X Lion. Run Software Update in System Preferences.
Since you state to run 10.7.2, Software Update will have to use the combo updater to bring it up to 10.7.4. This will entail a large download that will take some time so have patience. I suggest the following steps:
Restart the Mac, press and hold Command-R to start up in Recovery Mode (More info: http://www.apple.com/macosx/recovery/ ).
If needed, select the desired language to move to the next screen (only if it is the first time in Recovery Mode).
Select Disk Utility in the bottom of the list, Continue...
Choose the hard disk drive device on the list ( xxx.xx GB APPLE HDD ...) by clicking on it.
Click on Repair Disk button, wait for it to finish.
Choose the Lion boot volume, Macintosh HD, by clicking on it.
Click the Repair Disk button, wait for it to finish. If any errors are found and the process does not end with a "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK." message, click on Repair Disk again.
Click on the Repair Disk Permissions button. This will take awhile to finish.
Quit Disk Utilities, choose Restart from the menu.
Now run Software Update in System Preferences, choose to apply all missing updates. This will take quite awhile, depending on how fast your Internet connection is. The Mac will need to be restarted when the updating is done.
Run Software Update again to have Safari updated to the latest version. This is necessary since Safari 5.1.7 needs OS X 10.7.4 to be running already.

I tried to use my visa gift card to purchase something and I am now aware that it does not have any money in it to purchase anything. Now when I try to update an app it will direct me to the incorrect billing page instead. I cannot update any applications

Hello. I have tried to use my visa gift card to purchase something from apple. However, the security code is not present, which I am aware of. When I typed in the correct security code, I discovered that there was not enough money in the card to complete the purchase anyway. Now, whenever I attempt to update my applications on my iPhone 3Gs, I am directed to the billing information from the previous purchase that did not work. How do I cancel the purchase and continue to update my applications?

This happens for some apps. If you have a computer try to buy on it. Otherwise you will have to enter a credit card or some from of billing.

Can I order a scan from PSE12 directly and open it? On other versions of Photoshop I could scan from "import", and my type of scanner was listed. All I had to do was check the proper scanner. This scanner is wireless and not listed. The only thing that is

On other previous editions of Photoshop I could order the scanner to scan using "file", then "Import" on other versions, my scanner was listed. The scanner I have now is a wireless, does that make any difference. As I see it must be linked in some way. How do I do that? I am using PSE12.

When I close firefox all my tab groups close too and dissapear the next time I open firefox. I have a Mac. I try with the version 5 and 6 (beta). What can i do?

I can make the groups but the problem happens when i close firefox and open again.

Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the 'Browsing History' when you close Firefox or use cleanup software that clears session data (sessionstore.js)
