MacBook Pro :: OS X Lion To Mountain Lion?
Jun 17, 2012
I just got a new MBP and it is my first. It came with OS X Lion 10.7.3 and I have it updated to 10.7.4. Now with the latest OS X soon to be released, I am thinking of updating it. So my question is that when I do the upgrade, do I need to do it as fresh install? Or, can it be done similar to as an update to existing OS? I guess I would like to know what is the best way to get the latest OS installed on my machine.
Not to mention, though I am still learning my way around with the Max OS, I am very much liking the MBP. Any cool apps I should use, please let me know.

After the disaster getting Quicken for Mac 2007 (or earlier) to sort-of work on Lion, has anyone checked if the Lion Compatible Quicken for Mac works on the new Mountain Lion operating system? Even though this isn't an Apple problem, I know I'm not the only person who would love to update to a new Mac; however, they all come with Mountain Lion, and many of us are terrified of losing financial data if there's another

Whenever I try to install the latest preview of Mountain Lion, it says"Some features of OS X Mountain Lion are not supported for the disk "R2iMac". The warning directs me here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4649 It seems like it'll let me continue, but once it restarted it eventually said the installation failed. The point is I do have a Recovery HD and I don't know what to do about this. Check out my partitions:And here's the error dialouge: Please advise.

I am currently running version 10.7.4 from what I read and what I was able to make out from my serial number I wont be able to upgrade from Lion to Mountain Lion as it says my imac is a late 2006 model.I am just curious if I am able to run Lion why Apple isnt supporting the older models that can? Seems odd to me and it is not in my budget to buy a new mac and my current one is running perfectly. I'm not sure how much I will miss out not having Mountain Lion.

I inadvertently deleted my OSX 10 Lion operating system on my Mac Mini -- tried redownloading it but continually received an automated response saying something like ".... unable to download the software, try again later" That is not an exact quote but close. I tried several times to download the software but always received the same message. I did verify that WIFI was up and working properly on my separate laptop.

I know Mountain Lion isn't released, but I know Apple has published quite a bit of specs and requirments already. So my question, which I havent found an answer to...as it sounds a little rare. Would it be possible to send video and audio (think Netflix app, Apple Video app, etc.) from an iPhone to an Airplay Mac running Mountain Lion? I don't have a tv, don't really need one as my 27" LED dispay is just fine. But at times I'd like to send video at times from my iPhone to a Mac. One main reason is Netflix Silverlight messes with some software I have, rendering Netflix streaming impossible on the Mac. I have seen a Mac desktop app that will do this—Reflection app—but I beleive there is a lot of compression that effects quality.

I purchased my computer 4 months ago and have had nothing but troubles since. When I bought it I think I downloaded OS X Mountain Lion for free, either that or my computer came with it. After several attempts from Geek Squad at Best Buy to fix my computer, they finally reset the computer back to factory settings. Now I do not have OS X Mountain Lion and cannot figure out how to download it for free (Because if I had to download it in the first place, I downloaded it for free), and I do not have iphoto. This is my second Macbook, and the first one I remember having to purchase ilife to get iphoto.
