Can't download "Lion-version"

When I bought my new MacBook Pro, they told me that I would get mac OS X Lion for free but it wasn't installed on the computer. The only thing I would have to do was download it from App Store since I bought my computer after the 16th of July. But when I'm trying I can't do it without paying for it.
Did the store lie? Or am I doing something wrong?

Searching this forum would turn up lots of hits on that all pointing to http://www.apple.com/macosx/uptodate/

    Can I download Lion with an AT&T 4G wireless device?

    I would have expected the question to go, "can I RE-download..." if that were the case, which is why I gave the long version.
    I recently bought Mountain Lion by this method, and was surprised by how convoluted it is AND how long you may wait for the download code to be sent. Once installed, I can RE-download on a whim, as Mountain Lion does appear on my Purchases page in the MacApp Store.

  • Can I download Lion?

    I have a MacBook Pro, but my version is 10.5. I can't download Lion via my computer since I don't have the app store. Am I still able to go to the store and buy Lion and have it run on my laptop? I would really like to buy it... seems cool!

    You have to have snow leopard in order to upgrade.
    Buy the Snow leopard disk.  Install it.  Install the mac app store.  Download Lion - if your Mac will support it.

    If you want to add a new user-agent into User Agent Switcher, you go into preferences > New. Most of the blanks are filled in already, so just change the Mozilla revision number that will be at the end of the User Agent line. To fake 3.5.19, just change rv:1.9.2.19 to rv:1.9.1.19. For the description, put in "Firefox 3.5.19".

  • If i have model A1811 should/can i download lion in order to get icloud? Are they compatible?

    If i have model A1811 should/can i download lion in order to get icloud? Are they compatible?

    A1811 is simply the white or black plastic case non-Unibody MacBook. Any one of 17 different models.
    To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
    The model 1,1 cannot run Lion all the others can run Lion but you'll have to max out your RAM and upgrade to 10.6 Snow Leopard first.
    You can upgrade from 10.5 to 10.6 with no problems. Any program that runs under 10.5 will run under10.6. You might have to upgrade some drivers for printers, etc.... And you will have to install Rosetta if you have any Power PC applications http://www.macobserver.com/tmo/article/snow_leopard_installing_rosetta/   I recently upgraded an older MacBook (model 1,1) straight from 10.4 to 10.6.
    To upgrade your iLife and iWork. If you only want iPhoto or other single apps from iLife '11 you can get them from the App Store after you've upgraded to 10.6.6. iPhoto, iMovie or Garage Band for $15 each and Pages, Keynote or Numbers from iWork '09 for $20 each.
    You can order a Snow Leopard 10.6 install disk for $29 as long as you have at least1gb of RAM and 5gb of free space on your hard drive. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    Once you are at 10.6.8 you can buy Lion for $29 from the App Store if you have at least a model 2,1 MacBook. Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly. Also Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

  • Where can I download Java version 1.6.0_26-b03-384 for Mac OSX 10.6.8?

    Where can I download Java version 1.6.0_26-b03-384 for Mac OSX 10.6.8, please? I cannot find it anywhere on the internet and i need it because Firefox is complaing that the plug-in is inactive which is BS.
    Thanks.

    Since August 2012 updates for Java (and especially Java Runtime Environment, which is what you actually need) must now be downloaded direct from Oracle:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7-downloads-1637588.h tml
    (which is for Java 7)
    Further information here:
    http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/press/1735645
    and their FAQ’s:
    http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/mac-faq.html
    The recently discovered zero-day flaw in Java 7 is so serious that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has warned users to disable or uninstall it, and Apple has disabled the Java 7 plugin on Macs through its OS X anti-malware system, in order to protect users from a potentially serious security issue.
    You should disable Java (if not already done) until either the US Department of Homeland Security, or Oracle, declare it safe and Apple restore the facility. Oracle have released an update said to fix the security flaw, available from here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7-downloads-1880261.h tml
    Javascript should not be disabled (it has nothing to do with Java).

  • Can't download Lion. When I click on the Lion icon in the App store, nothing happens?

    Can't download Lion. When I click on the Lion icon in the App store, nothing happens?

    I hate the fact that I found this topic on Google, but after I had to log in to post this reply it took me somewhere else!  Again, a site designed by people who must never use their own software.  Any site that makes you log in to use a feature should not cast you adrift one you've logged in for the express purpose of using that very feature.  It makes me angry before I even start!  I am only here now because I have been run through the hoops trying to buy Lion and install it.  When I launched the app store, it had a lion's face I had to click on to download.  But there was no link to Buy or Download.  Eventually after many relaunches I accidentally discovered that if i clicked on £20 it changed into a green Buy - but only if you click directly on it, it you click on the down arrow it invites you to copy a link or to share it with somebody..  Then it made me log in again (what instant amnesia this site has) and I had to re-enter all my credit card info because it would not access an Australian American Express card even though it has a UK billing address.  So I went back again, and still got the Lion.  I clicked Buy several times but nothing happened.  Then out of the blue it changed to Install.  I clicked that many many many many many many times. Nothing happened whatsoever.  I am going to have to give up for now and try and get through to Apple tomorrow as they shut up shop and there is no sales or tech support.  God knows how many times they have charged my credit card for all the times I clicked Buy and nothing appeared to happen, or maybe it did happen and just doesn't tell you.
    So far tonight I've done nothing but start and restart AppStore, log in over and over, click the price>Buy and try to click install. and for all this effort so far I have got a big fat zero.
    I would have thought by now that Apple would have had some experiene in designing and delivering software over the internet, but my experience tells me that they are complete beginners whe it comes to user-friendly ecommerce.  This is some of the laziest web work I've had the misfortune to be annoyed by.
    Here's what I think should happen:
    Log in once and once only
    Click the product you want
    Click Buy (a separate button from the price tag)
    Once sale approved, click Download
    Progress bar appears
    Feedback in plain English for any action that cannot be completed for any reason, with that reason spelt out in layman's terms.

    How can i download lion from 10.6.8 because I can not find the download on the app store?

    The only way you could get Lion for free was if you had purchased a new Mac within a certain number of days before Lion's release. Buyers could then get a free upgrade to Lion. That offer is long gone. Otherwise, it's never been free.
    Mavericks, 10.9.x is the first OS Apple has ever released for free to everyone (who's Mac can run it).

  • My order is still pending, and I can only download trial versions. Help?

    Ordered 4 days ago, and is still showing as pending.
    I have not received any serial number for this license.
    Can only download trial versions of apps.
    Help!

    Hi JohnxxiiiCollege,
    If you have purchased directly from Adobe (online/over the phone), please provide the order number & you can also confirm from your bank if the transaction has been completed or not.
    Please mention the product name if purchased from any other sources.Then the serial number issue can be resolved.
    As you have mentioned that " Can only download trial versions of apps", I assume it is  the trial of Creative cloud, if that is the case then serial number is not required.
    Since you have the trial downlaod available so it might be that the creative cloud subscription is not yet active(if it is creative cloud subscription).
    You can privately message me the details also.
    Regards
    Rajshree

  • I had a previous version of photoshop installed on my machine. I lost my HDD. How can I download the version of photoshop that i bought ~4 yrs ago?

    I had a previous version of photoshop installed on my machine. I lost my HDD. How can I download the version of photoshop that i bought ~4 yrs ago?

    According to Wikipedia, 4 years ago you would most likely have bought Photoshop CS5.
    You can download Photoshop CS5 from Adobe.  Start here:
    Download CS5 products
    You'll need your serial number to activate it.  If you don't have that, you can likely find it on Adobe's main web site after you've logged-in with your Adobe ID.  See the Find your serial number quickly link to pursue that.
