Can i install os x mountain lion in another macbook air with my apple id?

Can i install os x mountain lion in another macbook air with my apple id?

It depends. If you purchase an OS upgrade it can be installed on up to 5 devices that are registered with your ID. However if you purchase a computer with that OS you cannot install it on other computers you own. The OS that comes with your computer is tied to the computer and not your ID.

    From the Finder's Go menu, choose Computer:
    Double-click your hard disk icon. It is usually named "Macintosh HD":
    Look for this folder:
    Drag it to the Trash.

  • Can I buy mountain lion in another Macbook computer, and then Re install it in mine?

    Can I buy mountain lion in another Macbook computer, and then Re install it in mine?
    I'm stock in the re install mode of the Mountain Lion system and I obviosly didn't buy it for this Macbook, and I was wondering if I can purchase Mountain Lion in on of my friends Macbook, and then install it in mine, with my apple ID of course. Thank you.

    Well, I can check with mine when it need to be updated and then I can signed with my ID again on his mac to update it, right? Just wondering if it's not going to create any conflicts with other software's, specially with iCloud and iTunes, because of his iPhone and iPad.
    Thanks for the answer.

  • Can't install mac os mountain lion uising

    can't install mac os mountain lion uising cd

    Mountain Lion doesn't ship on any media and is too large to fit on a CD.
    You must purchase it using the App Store and it downloads over the Internet.

  • I am trying re-install OS X Mountain Lion, but it is not locating my Apple HD

    I am trying re-install OS X Mountain Lion, but it is not locating my Apple HD, once click on agree, which HD do want to install, its is not show the HD at all ?

    Is it a 15"?
    If so, see this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088
    Print it out and take it and your Mac to an Apple store or a authorized service center. You may have a logic board problem, which probably has nothing to do with the current problem.

  • I tried to airdrop Civilization V from a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion to a Macbook Pro with Lion and it doesn't work. Other apps have but Civ V has not.

    I tried to airdrop Civilization V from a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion to a Macbook Pro with Lion and it doesn't work. Other apps have but Civ V has not.

    Likely because it's a not self contained and/or it's game and copy protected, so install it via the developers instructions instead, which likely means it will have ot be uninstalled off the first machine, the developer contacted for a new license key before installing on the newer machine.
    If you want it on both machines, you will need to likely buy another license.
    Most developers are fine with transfering license between machines, you have to contact them.
    They just want to make sure it's only on one machine so they are not getting robbed.

  • TS3276 Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

    Cannot send emails in mountain lion from another wireless network, when are apple gong to fix this

    You might be able to set up the SMTP server settings in Mail to authenticate with a password. That may get the email through.
    In Mail Preferences, Accounts, select the account.
    Click on the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) popup menu and select Edit SMTP Server List
    Select the Server and then click the Advanced tab at the bottom.
    Select Password authentication and add your details.
    You might also want to set a custom port (even if it is one of the defaults)
    This solution is normally for an email provider that will not let you send outside of your ISP network, which most prevent. They also must support password authentication of the SMTP server.

  • Can i install os x mountain lion in apple retailer store instead?

    I live overseas and i don't have broadband internet access.
    Can i just simply bring my macbook pro late 2011 to apple retailer store and ask them to clean install OS X mountain lion?
    i have backed up everything that i need though..

    you can most definitely walk into your Apple Retail Store and use their internet! Apple is very cool about those things. I've seen some people just stand and browse the internet for hours while I'm getting something repaired or buying something there. They really don't care. They want you to be in there.
    make an appointment to see if they can't assist you further, be sure to bring an 8gb storage device if you want to do a clean install.
    if you are using time machine, make sure you verify your backups by holding option and clicking the time machine icon in the toolbar and then selecting Verify Backups.
    Be aware that if you plan to just migrate your former backup to ML that a clean install is unecessary and you can just do a regular installation ontop of your system as it is now.

    No. OS X only works on Macs with Intel CPUs.

  • Can't install os mavericks because don't have macbook air flash storage firmware update 1.1; can't install firmware update because OS is too old (10.7.4)

    Hello, I have a Macbook Air, bought May 2012 or so that came with OS 10.7.4 on it.  Did not try to upgrade OS until recently.  Tried to upgrade to OS Mavericks, however received error message 'Before installing OS X Mavericks this system requires MacBook Air Flash Storage Firmware Update 1.1."  I then downloaded and attempted to install said Firmware Update 1.1, but received another error message, to wit: "This update requires 10.7.5 or 10.8.5 or later"
    Who can help me out the this Catch-22?  I thought about first updating to OS 10.8, but apparently that is no longer available?

    Hi CursedIn,
    If the Firmware update required for Mavericks requires 10.7.5 to install, you may be able to download it directly from the following link:
    OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)

  • I can't install iPhoto 11 app on second hand macbook air

    Hey,

    How can this be solved ?

    Just an agreement with Csound1 - you need to begin again anew (is that repetitious?).
    CleanMyMac has obviously made the installation of Adobe products impossible. Which products, specifically, are you trying to install and which versions? You should ALWAYS use the provided Adobe Uninstallers to uninstall an Adobe product. Kind of pointless information at this time, I know, but just as a reminder for 'next time,' when you surely will no longer be using CleanMyMac.
