App Store doesn't know I already purchased, downloaded and installed Mountain Lion

I've have downloaded OS 10.8 Mountain Lion from the App Store on my iMac. It's downloaded and installed, but every time I open the App Store, and look at my purchases it still says I still have to download Mountain Lion. It's a small problem, but rather annoying. It there anyway for the App Store to know Mountain Lion is installed on the iMac?

No it is NOT telling you you HAVE to redownload it. It is giving you the opportunity to Re-Download it.

    hienn,
    Not yet. There was an upgrade page to 10.8.2 for the late 2012 models but it's down now. I have to assume that Apple pulled it because of some bugs. I would look for something next week, more likely than not. In the meantime, the OP should be good with 10.8.1 until the update shows up again.

  • Problems downloading and installing mountain lion from the app store

    HI i have purchased the upgrade for mountain lion from snow leopard and everytime i download and install the install wizard informs that he file cannot be verified so may be corrupt. Am i doing anything wrong?

    App store download problems:
    - Sign out of the App Store (in the Store menu)
    - Quit the App Store
    - In Finder - Go>Go to folder...  (or Apple-shift-G)
    - Paste in the following "~/Library/Caches/ "
    - It will take you to a folder.  Delete com.apple.appstore
    - Launch the App Store.  Sign in and then reclick the Mountain Lion buy.  It won't charge you again.

  • Iphone5 - Downloading application from app store takes more than 24 hours to download and install, even if the memory size of app is very small about 2 MB. WIFI connection seems to works well - because the webpages browsing using safari is very fast.

    I face problem with downloading application from apple store.
    It took more than 5 hours to install google maps application and many other application took more than 24 hours.
    It is very worst to see such downloading performace with my new bought iphone5.
    My WIFI connections seems to be very good. As I can able to open many webpages at very high speed.
    I can able to see my many HD videos open and play immediately once I touch.
    Though i cannot able to test the speed, as the www.speedtest.net also not working in my iphone5.
    When i launch speedtest.net app i get the message "Finding closest server" forever and it is never showing the speed details.
    My laptop shows the 10Mbps speed with speedtest.net on the same WIFI network
    I got much frustrated with iphone5. Can someone help me to fix this issue ?

    Hi,
    Install the v10.6.6 combo update available here. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.6. The combo includes fixes that were not included in the original update.

    Restart your Mac and try the MAS again.
    You can download apps directly from the MAS once you have it running.
    Considering the TM backup took so long, make sure there's enough space on your Mac startup disk.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*

  • Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud.

    Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud and never will be able to.

    That is true - I apologize for not being specific - what I was mainly referring to is iLife applications. I have a notice on the App Store that says 3 apps need updates, I look at the apps and they are huge so since my connection is so slow I use my work connection and d'load the files from support to my Windows machine and carry them home, once d'loaded my MacAir states it cannot install, the update must come from the App Store.
    I do the same thing for large Leopard and Lion files and I can install them without error, it is just the App Store files that the system stops.

    From the App Store meny bar click Store > Check for Unfinished Downloads
    And check your Applications folder for the app.

  • What do I do if the Mac App Store won't except my code for the OS X Mountain Lion code?

    What do I do if the Mac App Store won't except my code for the OS X Mountain Lion code?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Contact the folks that sent you the code or AppleCare for assistance.

  • I've already downloaded and installed the LION. Is it possible to re-download it just to make a USB duplicate copy?

    I've already downloaded and installed the LION. Is it possible to re-download it just to make a USB duplicate copy? If yes, please advise instruction.
    Thanks a much!

    Yes. Open the Mac App Store and click the Purchases icon in the toolbar while holding down the Option key. The "installed" button will change to "install" and you'll be able to download the installer again.

  • I bought macbook pro and update my osx, i already have the codes and install mountain lion and its been 2 days now and still downloading mode

    i bought macbook pro and update my osx, i already have the codes and install mountain lion and its been 2 days now and still downloading mode

    Disable anti virus software.
    Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent apps from downloading including Mountain Lion as well as third party download managers.
    Keep in mind, for downloading Mountain Lion from the App Store, a high speed (broadband) internet connection is strongly recommended by Apple as noted here > iTUNES STORE - MAC APP STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
    If you need to reinstall OS X or repair the the startup disk using Mountain Lion Recovery, that requires broadband access to the internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the internet form Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation.

  • Photoshop elements 13 and premiere 13 purchased, downloaded and installed... but wont OPEN/LAUNCH.. HELLP!!?

    photoshop elements 13 and premiere 13 purchased, downloaded and installed... but wont OPEN/LAUNCH.. HELLP!!?

    Hello
    My "os" is windows 8.1
    When I clicked on the PHOTOSHOP 13 executable the photo editor popped up
    along with an install option.  Then I clicked install and then a update
    failed message popped up. (I've attached a screen shot photo of that) Then
    I clicked on error log and a "please quit and try again error code" message
    popped up. (I've also attached a screen shot photo of that as well) so
    after all that I closed everything and restarted my computer and clicked on
    the PHOTOSHOP 13 executable again and it went straight to the photo editor
    not the welcome screen (where I can choose either organizer or photo
    editor)... why isn't there a welcome screen like before?
    When I clicked on the executable for PREMIERE 13 there was two executable
    options.. one that was labeled (PREMIERE 13 exe) and another that was
    labeled just (PREMIERE exe) without the "13" so first I clicked on PREMIERE
    13 exe and it took me to the welcome screen so then I clicked on video
    editor the new project but nothing happened. ... the loading bar moves then
    stops.  So after that I closed it and went back to click the PREMIERE exe
    and it took me straight to the video editor, again no welcome screen (were
    i can choose either organizer or video editor) just like the  photoshop....
    so in the end I am able to click on the executable options for both
    photoshop 13 and premiere and it takes me straight to the editor but
    without the welcome screen...
    Clicking on the shortcut icons on my desk top still won't launch though....
    So does this mean it's working because clicking on the executable options
    takes me straight to the editor? Or is something still not right because
    the program won't open/launch when i click on the desktop shortcuts and
    welcome screen won't pop up when clicking on executable options?
    Thank you so much for replying I really appreciate it
