App store will not let me upgrade to Mountain Lion?!

I can't download the upgrade to Mountian Lion because it days I need 2GB of free space. I'm showing 216 GB of free space. Can anyone tell me what's going on?

It's probably saying you need 2gb of memory (RAM). I suspect you have less. Even with 2gb of RAM Mountain Lion will run like a dog - 4gb or more would be much better.
Have a look here to see your upgrade options: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple/memory/iMac

    On your iPad tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account  - that should give you a payments link on your account's page. Or on your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should also be a payment link.
    Changing payment info : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
    If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen : Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?

    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple Id to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new ID.

    You need to first install the OS your Mac came on the bundled gray disks. Assuming it's Snow Leopard, you could then login into the App Store using your same Apple ID and password to download and install Lion.
    If your Mac is a bit older and came with Leopard, 10.5.x, you can bypass that and install Snow Leopard from your retail disk. The only software you'd need to install separately from the gray disks would be the optional software, such as the iLife suite and other titles not included on the retail SL disk.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select

    from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it.

  • App Store will not load after upgrading to mac osx 10.7.2

    Upgraded my MacBook Pro to 10.7.2 and now App Store will not present any information... seems to hang trying to connect to the store.  This is just one symptom of issues after the upgrade... Outlook, Safari, KeyChain Access, etc all failing to load or to operate properly.

    Install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.2 Client Combo
    Then restart your Mac.
    If you still have problems, you may need to repair the startup disk.
    Use Lion Recovery to do that.

  • App Store will not let my re download games because I never had money in my account

    App Store won't let me re download a buy I have already brought but I try to buy something and I never had the money on my credit card now I can not download something I already brought without doing credit card Agean but when I do it says I don't have enough money but I already have it I just wanna redownload it

    If you tried to buy something and did not have the money, your Apple ID will
    be disabled. You need to resolve the problem before you can download anything
    including apps you previously had.
    Suggest you start here to get the problem resolved:

  • My Mac Pro running 10.6 Snow Lep cannot connect to App store. I want to upgrade to Mountain Lion but cannot. Can anybody help?

    All attempts to connect to App store have failed with my Mac Pro.  Running 10.6 Snow Lep and want to upgrade to Mountain Lion.  How can I do it???
    So far all advice useless.

    You need to be running at least 10.6.6, and 10.6.8 is better. If you have the App Store icon, you are probably already at that version.
    10.8 is not available to all Mac Pro 65lb tower models. Those made before the 2008 model will not be able to Upgrade at any price.
    10.7 is available if the mac App Store is working, but you will need to CALL Apple Online Store Support to arrange to buy it over the phone. They will sell you a special download code.

  • MacBook7,1 Will not boot after upgrading to mountain lion

    I have a MacBook7,1 with 2GB of memory and the NVIDIA GeForce 320M with 256 MB.  I just upgraded to Mountain Lion.  However, when it tries to boot it comes up, shows the apple and then restarts.  It does this continuously.  Every once in a while I can login but shortly there after it reboots.
    I booted from a DVD and ran the Disk Utility.  I am able to verify disk permissions and verify disk with no reported issues.
    From what I can tell my MacBook is a supported model but it sure does not seem like it.
    Any suggestions of anything else I could try and/or check would be greatly appreciated.

    I suggest:
    Install or Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion from Scratch
    If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
