Does gifting OSX Lion require me to pay again if I have already bought it on my account?

Please help me clear my doubt, Does gifting OSX Lion require me to pay again even if I already have it on my account?

Yes, you have to pay again. Your license is for a single user. If you want to gift Lion to someone else why would you even think you wouldn't have to pay again? Did you think you could just give away multiple copies of Lion to people because you bought it for yourself?

  • Why does viber keep asking me to set up again? I have   it up about 3 times now and if I don't have my mobile  when overseas will be unable to retrieve the sms code. I am using an ipad mini

    Why does viber keep asking me to set up again when I have already set it up about 3 times and used it successfully. Will be overseas without my mobile and will be unable to retrieve the sms code to set it up if this happens when I am away so should I reinstall it ?

    ISSUE FINALLY RESOLVED!!!!!!
    So, it turns out, I had to restore the iPhone...with a twist! Here are the steps:
    FIRST BACK UP YOUR DEVICE
    1. Go to the library (Hold option, click on "go" in the finder, then go to library)
    2. Go to your iTunes folder in this Library (not application support, the main iTunes folder)
    3. Go to the iX software folder (i.e., iPhone software, iPad software, etc.) and delete the file in this folder
    4. Hook up the phone and then click on restore iPhone.
    At this point, it will redownload the entire OS again. You must then restore the iPhone. As it is downloading the iOS, you can disconnect and use your phone for probably however long you want (I did the restore the same day as the download) and when you are ready you can hook up the phone and restore it.
    THE MOST IMPORTANT STEP FOLLOWS:
    And one many may dislike. Upon restoring the phone, you MUST select "Set-Up as new iPhone"
    You need to make sure you've backed up EVERYTHING elsewhere. 3rd party, non-apple/icloud apps will lose data through this method, and you'll lose all texts, your call history, and super old voicemails. The upside is that, if you've backed up, then you can just restart the process if you forgot something. But seeing as how the popup was interfering with my ability to use iCloud (I couldn't sync anything, such as calendar events, reminders, etc.,  unless I had gone into mail to sign in to iCloud), it was totally worth it....no more popups.
    My only wish is that this thread becomes popular. Many people have this issue and you should only use this method as a super last resort (after trying literally everything I had written previously).

  • Why does downloading OSX Lion take so long??

    i formatted the Hard Drive from Disk Utility in order to Re-install OSX Lion...The download time first shown was like 53 hours and then after like 10 minutes it went down to 10 hours...i am pretty sure thst the internet connection i have is very fast, so why does downloading OSX Lion take so long?

    It's about 4GB, from memory, and the download speed can be affected from things like site traffic or variations in speed from your own ISP. But in general, it IS a very large download. Also never put your trust in a computer telling you how much time is left to download. As you can see, it recalculates everything more often and more quickly than the Tax Department! (Oh, and don't watch it. You know the old saying)

  • Does reinstalling OSX Lion...?

    Does reinstalling OSX Lion from Recovery Partition remove my Boot Camp partition?

    I think running Software Update is a good idea - I did a fresh install of MLion this last week using the full 10.8.4 installer. After the update SU offered me Digital Raw and Airport Utility updates that I'd already previously installed before doing the fresh install.

  • Help! 13" macbook pro will not boot.  Tried running disk repair from HD recovery, not repairable.  Trying to reinstall OSx Lion, says disc is locked.  Do I have to erase the drive and lose everything?  I also have Bootcamp installed, will boot to Win OK

    Tried running disk repair from HD recovery, not repairable.  Trying to reinstall OSx Lion, says disc is locked.  Do I have to erase the drive and lose everything?  I also have Bootcamp installed, will boot to Windows no problem.

    Hotrodmkviii,
    try rebooting in Recovery mode, but when you reach the Mac OS X Utilities menu, run Terminal (from Utilities in the menu bar) instead. Inside the Terminal window, give it the following command, and then press the Return key:
    diskutil list
    Please include in your reply the output from that command.

    I created a custom security extension following the steps listed in the Readme_Security Extension Sample. It works fine if I login as the user that is specified AdminConfiguration section of the rsreportserver.config file but if I
    log in as another user, I get this error: User '' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.  I've added the user to both System Administrator

    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks.

    Hi MetronM,
    The issue is due to that user have no permission to access the report server. In report manager, Reporting Services includes predefined roles that we can assign to users and groups to provide immediate access to a report server. Each role defines a collection
    of related tasks.
    You can refer to the following steps to assign corresponding role to the user.
    Open report manager.
    Click “Folder Setting” button. 
    Click “New Role Assignment” icon.
    Type the user name and select the corresponding role.
    There is an article about Granting Permissions on a Native Mode Report Server, you can refer to it.

  • Why can`t I download and instal the osx lion in brazil if I have already bought it?

    First of all, sorry for my english, but i`m not so good in it.
    Well, i`m trying to download and install the osx 10.7 in my 2009 macbook,
    i have already bought and used it before in my macbook,
    after installing the osx 10.8, i didn`t like and decided to go back to Snow Leopard.
    Now, i`m trying to download and instal but i can`t because they say that this osx isn`t available for my country.
    i think that if i have paid for this osx, i have the right to download and instal it again, can you help me?
    Tks.

  • I just bought a new Mac and migrated my CS6 over.  Now when I open it, I'm told I'm running a trial version of Cloud.  Why can't I use my CS6 version that I purchased?  I don't want to pay for something I've already bought.

    Here's how to convert the Trail to Permanent:

    Make sure that you are online
    Click on license this software
    Perpetual product owners: Log in with adobe ID and enter product serial number
    Product should be licensed successfully

  • Why does my Ipad keep going black and then back to the apple logo.  It eventually goes to the start page but then blacks out again.  I have already rebooted several times with no luck!!

    Why does my Ipad 2 keep going black ahd back to the apple logo.  It eventually goes to the home screen and allows me to try something else but after about 30 seconds it happens again.  I have already rebooted several times? 

    Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
    Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings

  • Is it possible to replace Adobe ExportPDF without having to pay again as I'm already paying $1.99/month for a year?

    I accidentally deleted adobe export pdf and I can't restore it. Is it possible to replace that without having to pay again as I'm already paying $1.99/month for a year? (I also recently just got the program, no longer than 4 days)

    There is nothing to 'replace.'
    Simply go to https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf and sign in with your Adobe ID and password (most likely, the same one you used to post here in the forum).

  • HT2736 I purchased a tv show. I like it so much I was willing give as a gift. Unfortunately the gift button doesn't appear. It seems because I have already purchased it for myself, I am unable to give it as a gift.

    I purchased a tv show. I like it so much I was willing give as a gift. Unfortunately the gift button doesn't appear. It seems because I have already purchased it for myself, I am unable to give it as a gift.

    Long over due screen shots.
    Clearly the problem is ANY item I have purchased/own can not be gifted.
    I can't believe I am the only one having this problem.
    By the way I tried from my desktop in iTunes and guess what.......
    SAME PROBLEM.
    I find this all very amusing.
    Someone in charge at iTunes HQ has either missed this or has some explanation for this.
    I would love to know the reason.

  • Does Mac "OSX Lion" come with "iCloud"?

    I am unsure if the new Mac "OS X Lion" comes with the new "iCloud" i hope so but i'm not sure it hasn't said it does or does not on this site

    Even if it is free, there is no guarantee it will remain so. Still, it sure looks free to me. Plus, Dropbox security has me worried. I was never interested in MobileMe, even when it was free. I am definitely interested in iCloud, even if it isn't.

  • Does Moc OSX Lion use more battery than Snow Leopard?

    Ever since I have updated my MBP Early 2011 (2.2 Ghz Radeon 6750) to Lion, my battery life has gone down tremendously. I used to be able to get a solid 7 hours in (light workload ei. web browsing) and now I'm only able to get 3.5 hours MAX. I'm currently running 10.7.2 and the problem is still there. I have gone through around 200 cycles so it's not like 1000's of cycles or anything. Is this just me or are other people exeriencing the same problems? I plan on going back to snow leopard soon if there is no fix to this.

    I have had my MBP since July 2011, and am at 22 cycles.
    You must run soley on battery charge, almost never plugged in.
    Are you running your battery very much down (10%-20%) before re-charge , or recharging at about 40%?
    Running Lithium-Ion batteries almost dead create a "memory" that can make your MBP unchargeable. 

  • Does reinstalling OSX Lion force all files to be reinstalled?

    My USB Ethernet has stoped working on my 2011 MacAir. I've tried all the fixes I could find on these forums including new locations, manual set up etc;
    The last recommendation is to reinstall the OS. Question - does doing this automatically force a full re-install of everything ie doc/file/programs,  or just does it overwrite the OS files with new ones? I'd like to avoid a full restore from Time Machine for all my other data, plus I have Parallels running just fine and i do't want to have to reinstall that all over again, if possible.
    Thanks,

    I think running Software Update is a good idea - I did a fresh install of MLion this last week using the full 10.8.4 installer. After the update SU offered me Digital Raw and Airport Utility updates that I'd already previously installed before doing the fresh install.
