Dont have boot disk downloaded from app store

know there must be an answer.
on my macbook pro - i downloaded the operating system from App store - did not make boot disc (in last 10 years - never had to use - so neglected to do so!!)
now i need it!
what to do?

If you decide you want to make a boot disk, download the installer from the App Store and use one of there methods. Lion Diskmaker will do the work for you.
Bootable Drive - Install
Bootable Drive - Install (2)
Bootable Drive DVD or USB Flash Drive – Lion Diskmaker

  • I have a new mac mini I5 - I cannot find and copy Maverick onto a flash so that I can install on the other 7 iMacs - don't want to download from App store to each machine

    I have a new mac mini I5 - I cannot find and copy Maverick onto a flash so that I can install on the other 7 iMacs - don't want to download from App store to each machine - files too big
    Please assist

    You need to download it on one of the iMacs via App store but not install since after it installs the installation download gets deleted.
    After it is downloaded you can copy to a USB device. You can also make a bootable USB install device by:
    downloading and using DiskMaker X

  • Hi. I have a problem with downloading from app store while last three days. An error did mot allow me to that. It's number is 1009.

    I have a problem with downloading from app store while last three days. An error does not allow me to take any app. The error number is 1009.

    Thats the ugliest code I've seen in a while and may be hampering your abilities to debug it. No offense - you have to start somewhere - think of it as somewhat constructive criticism.
    However, I cannot find any place where this is happening. Its happening on line 193.
    Also, this only happens when you try to move certain pieces to certain squaresThat might be a clue. Try printing out the indexes before line 193 and see what happens. Maybe use a debugger to step through your code.

  • HT4569 In case of lost internet connection during mountain lion download from app store, do i have to start over?

    In case of lost internet connection during mountain lion download from app store, do i have to start over?

    How do I speed this up.  I have a fast internet connection but this is obviously not right. 
    The speed of the downlaod is dependant on the speed of your Internet connection. "I have a fast Internet connection...," doesn't actually mean anything unless you provide some numbers.
    I have a cable Internet connection with 32 Mbps download speeds, but if you have DSL, you would probably be limited to 1.5 Mbps. Some would call both of these connections "fast," but obviously one is faster than the other.
    What is the speed of your Internet connection?? Don't say, "fast."

  • Facetime 1.0.4 not signing in. I did not have facetime installed. Downloaded from app store. Will not sign in. All network working fine.... Account working fine to app store and other....

    Facetime 1.0.4 is not signing in. I did a new install as I did not have Facetime on my Mac OS X 10.6.8. Downloaded from app store. Message is: Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again.

    Hello ChuckLoyal,
    It sounds like you are unable to connect to FaceTime on your Mac. I would use these troubleshooting steps from the article named:
    FaceTime for Mac: Troubleshooting FaceTime
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4185
    Activating FaceTime for Mac
    Use your Apple ID to register and use FaceTime. FaceTime registration validates your Apple ID and email address for use with FaceTime.
    If you are unable to activate FaceTime, try the following:
    Sign in to FaceTime for Mac using a valid Apple ID. After you validate the email address for use with FaceTime, other FaceTime users can connect to you using that email address. If you encounter issues registering or using an Apple ID account:
    Ensure that you have an active Internet connection.
    Verify that you are using a valid Apple ID at appleid.apple.com. You can also create an Apple ID or reset your password from this website.
    Check that your email address is verified in FaceTime > Preferences.If FaceTime > Preferences shows your email status as "verifying," follow the instructions in the verification email that was sent to complete the process.
    Toggle FaceTime off and on in FaceTime > Preferences.
    If still unable to Sign In follow the instructions in FaceTime, Game Center, Messages on OS X: Troubleshooting Sign in
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,

  • My iPhone 4s cannot download from app store

    For a couple days now my iPhone 4s cannot download anything from the app store. I cannot download new apps or updates. It does not give me an error message or anything. It just shows the icon on my iPhone screen and it says waiting right underneath it; I've let it go on for a day and it never resolved anything. It was working fine before and now it doesn't. I have not changed any settings and I know my account is fine because my wife's iPhone is also setup to use my iCloud account and it works without problems. I donnot want to reset my iPhone as it is currently set up just the way I need it; both peronal and work stuff. It would be a pain in the rear if I had to reset everything. Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Update to my post.
    I called customer Apple support and now my phone works without a problem.
    Here's what I had to do:
    Try resetting network connections. If that does not work go to next step below.
    Connect your iPhone to your computer
    Open iTunes (probably opens automatically)Back up your iPhone to your computer
    Restore iPhone to factory settings (this is what I did. you can skip this step if you're feeling lucky and go straight to the next step). Try to download from app store, if it works, your set; go to next step.Try right clicking on your iPhone an the left menu (iTunes) if you don't see the right options on your screen
    Restore iPhone from previous file (iTunes)
    My iPhone did not restore my downloaded apps, no worries, just go to bought apps on the app store/iTunes and download apps into iTunes. After that, just sync your iPhone to iTunes and your apps should be there.
    I hope that helps, that's what I had to do. I was able to reset my iPhone and all my settings to the way it was before restoring. I did not loose anything but it took about 2 hours.

  • Solution for iPad slow download from app store

    First, I have to clarify this is just my solution for the problem I encoutered. It may not work for you, but I think it's nice to post here for whoever needs it some day.
    I live in Sydney, using TPG as my home network provider. In order to use iMessage on my iPad, I followed the solution on this community to change to DNS to 8.8.8.8. And it works, which I thinks it's really odd and Apple never gives any explaination.
    But after I changed the DNS, downloading from the app store became really slow. My iPhone 4S can download the same app with the same network about 4 times faster than my iPad does. Initially, I thought this problem is caused by jail breaking. So I jailbroken my iPhone 4S as well (haha, this is what I learned from Apple-Think different), but the problem still. Turns out this problem is caused by the 8.8.8.8 DNS. so I changed the DNS back to my router domain, in my case 10.1.1.1 (for some people it may be 168.1.1.1), it become fast again. So you may try this way when you have the same slow download problem after change your dns to 8.8.8.8.
    I don't know why this works. I don't know why iPad needs to change the dns to use iMessage in Australia. And I don't know why download from app store become slow after the change. If you know the reason, please be kindly to tell me, I'd love to hear about it. Now I have to change my DNS back and forth to download apps quickly and use iMessage, if you have better solution for this issue, please be kindly to let me know as well. Good day mate.

    Mountain Lion downloaded from App store on 11th and 12th June will not install. Downloaded TWICE it times out after 20 secs into install. Can't get any help!!! Going around in circles!!
    My Machine MacBook Pro  OS 10.6.8  
    Processor 2.66Ghz i7,
    4GB memory
    128GB solid state drive
    Purchased 2010

    Thanks very much for the advice. I trawled through the other answers on the site and it appears others had the same issue. I doubled the available space and the install went like clockwork... which is what one would norma;ly expect from Apple :-)
    Maybe Apple should have a ' definitely read me first' notice before a download takes place with CLEAR instructions to have more than the 6GB they indicate ofr the Mountain Lion download

    1. If you downloaded it for free the first time it should then be free for you forever to re-download and update.
    2. If the app is no longer on the store then you cannot re-download it, I suggest you save an extra copy of the one you already have. I know I backed up my precious phonesabre.
    3. Updating/installing directly on the iPhone has always gone fine for me. I didn't know there were issues.
