i cant install os x mountaoin lion. why do i need to purchase to upgrade? :/

Not complicated at all.
Just purchase the Mountain Lion upgrade like everyone else in the entire world.

Because you are so far back, you may need to purchase Snow Leopard first and then purchase Mountain Lion.

Make sure your MacBook meets the requirements to run Mountain Lion before purchasing as you don't give us any clues on what model MacBook you have.

  • After installing Yosemite iWork09 no longer works.  Do I need to purchase an upgrade?

    After installing Yosemite iWork09 no longer works.  Do I need to purchase an upgrade?

    All of the iWork 09 apps work for me with Yosemite.  Try the following:
    1 - delete all files with iWork in the file name from your User/Home/Library/Preferences folder.
    2 - delete all files with iWork in the file name from your User/Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost folder.
    3 - delete all items (files or folders) with iWork in the name from your User/Home/Library/Caches folder.
    4 - reboot and try the iWork apps again.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder. This will also work for Mavericks and Yosemite.
    For  Mavericks and Yosemite  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring up this window:

    One purchase is sufficient if both computers are owned by you and the ML version was purchased as an upgrade.

  • We have two IMac computers.  Do I need to purchase two upgrades to Lion or can I use one upgrade on bo†h on my computers?

    I have two IMac computers.  Both running the latest version on Snow Leopard.  To upgrade to Lion, do I need to purchase two upgrades or can I use one purchase for bo†h computers?
    Thanks,
    Alice

    As I understand the as yet unconfirmed rumor by me, is that once you pay for a single copy of Lion, every computer you have that's authorized under your Apple ID can download it, no limit on number.

  • I just installed Lion.  Do I need to purchase a new version of iPhoto to use Photo Stream?

    I'm confused...  I thought a new version would come with Lion, but it looks like the only option in the App store is $14.99.  Am I missing something?
    Thanks in advance...

    I have clicked Software Update a couple of times and it tells me that everything is up to date.  However, I am still running iPhoto 8.1.2...  Do I need to purchase iPhoto 9?

  • Why do i need a credit card if im installing free games only?, Why do i need a credit card if im installing free games only?

    I just dont understand why we need a freeking credit card if we are only downloading free games we should only have to put one inif we actually plan on buying something

    Hello Amanda,
    'Account' in the sense it is used here, really relates to ownership rather than the purchase of something.   When you have a free app, it is yours and in the event you accidentally delete it and want it back, it's formally recorded in your purchases folder.
    You can obtain free apps without a credit card by following these instructions.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account without a credit card

  • Can I install on both my machines or do I need to purchase two copies?

    I was thinking about purchasing Lightroom but was wondering if I could install it on my desktop and my laptop for when I travel or would I have to buy two copies?

    The current license allows for Two Installations (Mac, PC or One of Each)  provided they are not in use at the same time. This would seem to qualify.  One copy should be sufficient.

  • Cant Install Apple OS X Mountain Lion

    I cant install OS X Mountain Lion. My Apple IMac 5,1 have got 2 GB ram and 2 GHz intel Core 2 Duo but i cant install it because he say its not compitable?!

    If you check the compatibility list on the Tech Specs page from http://www.apple.com/osx you will see those machines Apple has said can use Mac OS X 10.8 if they have adequate ram and free hard drive space.
    There really isn't away around that requirement.

  • I install my ox s lion but my iPhoto did not install

    I install my ox s lion but my iPhoto did not install

    DId you upgrade a Snow Leopard system with Lion or did you erase the hard drive and just install Lion? If the latter, Lion, by itself, does not include the iLife programs. You'll either need to reinstall them from your Snow Leopard DVD or iLife DVD or buy iLife or iPhoto from the App store. Or did you buy iPhoto from the App store?
