Why has Mountain Lion has moved Parallels 7 to the Incompatible Software folder even though this version is supposed to compatible?

I have Parallels Version 7.0.15094 but on upgrading to Mountain Lion it has been moved to the Incompatible Software folder. From what I've read Version 7 is supposed to be compatible so does anyone know why this has happened and what I can do to fix it?

I have the same version on my MBP and upgraded to Mountain Lion. It's right where it was before the upgrade. I would try to run it and see if it crashes. If you've had parallels for a while and followed the upgrade path, it may have left some loose baggage on an upgrade. I would back up the virtual machines and try a clean load. Check the parallels site. They seem to have most of the bases covered.

Ever since i downloaded OSX Mountain Lion, Express VPN no longer works properly for me. Even though it says I am connected, webpages refuse to load. However, everything works fine when its turned off. I cannot go on many websites without the VPN.

Ever since i downloaded OSX Mountain Lion, Express VPN no longer works properly for me. Even though it says I am connected, webpages refuse to load. However, connection speed is fine when its turned off. I cannot go on many websites without the VPN. My current location is Shanghai, China. OSX Mountain was installed this morning and everything worked fine until then. Is Express VPN not supported? What do i need to do in order to get it working again on my Macbook Pro (early 2011). I want to be able to go on websites such as Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, ect...

Hi,
I am having the same issue listed above on my new Mac Mini i just bought, I also contacted Express VPN support and got the same instructions with exception of the command to run in the utilities terminal. I tried the steps listed, and both commands (posted here, and sent to me directly by Express VPN support), and still unable to connect on my Mac Mini running OS X 10.8.2, but I am able to connect on my iPad and my MacBook which is running Mac OS X 10.6.8. Usually Express VPN is spot on with their customer support, but this is taking longer to get resolved. Here is the steps sent to me
Try doing the following to see if the problem gets resolved:
Please follow the instructions here: https://www.expressvpn.org/support/setting_dns_servers_mac_os
(should still be the same for Lion) and then add the following DNS servers: 8.8.8.8 & 208.67.222.220. After adding the DNS servers, please do the following steps as well:
Note: If you're connecting to your ISP via a PPPoE connection, then set the DNS servers on the PPPoE connection itself and then restart your computer for the DNS settings to take effect.
1. Click on Applications
2. Click on Utilities
3. Click on Terminal
4. Type the following command (without the quotes): "sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder"
5. Press enter and then try reconnecting to the VPN.
If you're still unable to connect, please send us in the latest log files.
Hope this helps. Let us know how it goes.

You are not specific with your problem or errors but one thing that always throws people off is as follows:
When entering you're login name you must use the entire login with carrier name such as [email protected] The field defults to just your name but not the carrier name.

My Mac has a OS X operating system. (10.6.8) How can I upgrade its system to Mountain Lion so I can then add the ICloud?

My Mac has a OS X operating system. (10.6.8) How can I upgrade its system to Mountain Lion so I can then add the ICloud? Also, does the ICloud include virus protection for files already on my Mac?

You can purchase and download Mountain Lion in the App Store (in your 'Applications' folder), then just run the installer: however you should first check that Mountain Lion can indeed run on your Mac. Please see this page:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
You might also want to look at this page to see whether any vital applications will be adversely affected:

In particular note that PPC applications such as AppleWorks will not run on Mountain Lion since Rosetta is not included and can't be added.

Why does mountain lion "bunch up" all my microsoft office documents that I have open when I hit f3? When I had snow leopard for example, if i had 4 or 5 different microsoft office documents open at the same time I could hit f3 and easily pick one of them

Why does mountain lion "bunch up" all my microsoft office documents that I have open when I hit f3? When I had snow leopard for example, if i had 4 or 5 different microsoft office documents open at the same time I could hit f3 and easily pick one of them.
Notice how in the photo, I can't identify which MS office document I would like to switch too. Perhaps since the Dashboard and Desktop windows are at the top of my screen now Apple doesn't let you have all the applications take up the full screen and be sized individually so that you can have a better idea on what to pick.
I like the idea of grouping to an extent... If you have a bunch of random things it was hard for me to decifer between what was safari, chrome, or word. But now that they grouped them like this, if you have multiple pages of one program running, you can't switch between those pages easily like before.

If I wanted to open any of my Applework documents I had to open them one at a time and resave them with pages. This could take weeks.I have 1000s of apple work documents.
You don't have to open and re-save every AppleWorks document you have right now. Just wait till you need one, then do it. The documents aren't going anywhere.
Am I dealing with Microsoft? This was a BIG surprise to me that Apple would release an OS without testing all programs.
Frankly, it is not Apple's responsibility to ensure compatibiltiy with every piece of software available for OS X. That is the responsibility of the software vendor. Lion has been available to developers for several months before it's release, so Microtek had plenty of time to update their software. Yet they did not. How is that Apple's fault? I think Apple was very generous to give you a refund for Lion.
I'm not trying to belittle your frustration but I do think your ire is misplaced.

Why does Mountain Lion stop downloading at 10mb?! HELP!

I keep trying to update my operating system to Mountain Lion. Everytime I download it, it downloads up to 10mb and then restarts back to zero. It does this
three times and then gives me this error: "The application could not be downloaded. Check your internet connection and try again" I have done EVERYTHING I have read online from other discussion groups and websites. My internet connection is fine...I've even plugged my iMac directly into the cable and router....my computer is compatible, newer, and has enough memory....I've tried "unhiding" my update purchase...I've tried with my computer in safe boot mode... I have gone through every troubelshooting step I could find, and can't get mountain lion on! PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

HT4414 When I try to purchase Mountain Lion i get an error message: "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed." I can purchase other apps, why not Mountain Lion?

When I try to purchase Mountain Lion i get an error message: "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed."
I can purchase other apps, why not Mountain Lion. I get the same message on my wife's IMAC.

The only thing that worked for me was to boot in safe mode.
Power down. Then press power button and hold 'shift' key until grey screen with progress bar appears... Once booted and logged in just open safari and browse to applestore.
No trouble at all once I did this.
Hope it helps.

I have mountain lion OSX and parallels with Windows. Every time I click on a hyperlink in other applications it opens - some 7 Zip file explorer inside Parallels but doesn't go to Safari. Does anyone know solution?

I have mountain lion OSX and parallels with Windows. Every time I click on a hyperlink in other applications it opens - some 7 Zip file explorer inside Parallels but doesn't go to Safari. Does anyone know solution?

I suggest that you run software update, after which you should have Safari 6.0.5 - then check Safari - Preferences - Privacy & see that 'Block cookies' is not set to Always.
Failing that - switch Safari extensions Off via Safari - Preferences - Extensions & test again

Why is mountain lion not coming to my iMac?

Hi
I'm new to the community but have been with apple for a long time. I current own a late 2006 iMac and am trying to wrap my brain around why Mountain Lion isn't supported on the model?
I have recently updated the mac's RAM to 3GB and purchased OS Lion for the reason I wanted to get Mountain Lion when it launched. It runs Lion with no issues at all and I really can't believe there is that much change coming in Mountain Lion, which requires better hardware since the software tweaks don't seem massive?
I could be wrong on the matter, I'm just a little annoyed as I was really looking forward to using mountain lion at an upgrade cost of £19.99 than having to pay out £1000 for a new computer.
If anyone could put in my place and explain why this isn't coming to this iMac please reply?
Ian

This is what Apple does, now.
When new technologies become developed by Apple, they do not now want to support a lot of legacy Macs any longer.
They had to do this with PPC Macs because of all the years they used PPC technology and the large installed user base.
Now that the majority of installed users and new users are now on Intel Macs, Apple feels, now, in order to push technology forward that they need to pick a cutoff point at which to end older Mac hardware. Apple is continuing to build on 64 bit technologies in hardware and software.The 2006 model Macs simply aren't up to the challenge as they are only 32 bit architecture computers. Nothing says you have to stay on a current, upgrade path with your Mac, but Apple wants to continue to push technology forward and they do this, now, by obsoleting technology that may only be 3-4 years old!
I think you've been lucky. You've already got six years of productive life out of your iMac and it will continue to perform what you need it perform for a few more years to come.
I just made the switch to Intel with a used, but new to me, 2009, 27 inch screen iMac. I used a 2003 PowerPC tower for nearly 10 years prior to this. That Mac went as far as I could take it!
The only line of Macs that seem to have this kind of longevity, now, is Apple's top of the line Mac Pros.
I think this is so because if it's heavy price point. People and professionals expect to get longer useful and productive life of this line of Macs because they paid so much for these.
Technology is always going to move forward.
Also like to point out that even though you have installed the max. 3 GBs in RAM in your iMac, it is really the barest minimum to run OS X, by itself. You must not have or do any CPU or RAM intense work. You must just use this iMac for the basics (Internet, email, video chat, playing music and movies)? Ideally, the " working minimum" RAM for OS X 10.6-10.8 is really 4 GBs. Just for running the OS alone!
Additonal RAM atop this min. amount will insure the most applications will run a lot smoother.
With the specs of your iMac, I really can't see it running OS X Mountain Lion very well, in any event. IMO.

Why has Lightroom dropped out of the CC app?

Why has Lightroom dropped out of the list of installed applications entirely? And this on two independent systems, even.
It was originally installed through CC and it is still working - but in the CC app it's now listed under "Install new apps".
Here's a screenshot from a couple of weeks ago:
And here's how it looks now:

Why is Mountain Lion so...well...bad?

Ok so when I bought my MacBook Pro, I recieved Mountain Lion for free, but more to the point, before I got it, I could run games like Tekkit and Portal 2 but now, I CAN'T. Help me

Looks like an issue with Java and the fact that Apple doesn't include it in their regular download updates.
I found this video for running teckitt on the latest version of ML http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6YVChLdjn8
as to why, I think apple saw Java as a security risk and not completely necessary to use the computer. They want the user to download and use it if they need it.
