Downloaded Lion for my laptop.  Do I have to pay another $29 to download it on my mac?

I downloaded Lion for my laptop and was wondering if I have to pay again to download Lion on my desktop?

Hi,
You can re download Lion on all your authorized Macs using the same Apple ID for free.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.

    Hold the Option key down and restart. Select one of the drives that comes up and hit the Return key.

  • If I bought Lion for one computer, do I have to pay for it again?

    I bought OS Lion for my Macbook Pro and was able to download it free for the desktop, but my MacBook 7's App Store still lists the price, rather than just allowing me to download it. I thought one purchase was good for all my computers

    Log into the App Store with the same ID that you used on the other Mac
    Install on all authorized computers
    When you purchase Lion from the Mac App Store, you can install it on all your authorized Mac computers. Just sign in to the Mac App Store from each Mac and download Lion from the Purchases list.

  • I download lion for 2 hours and click to install it and it started downloading again.. Is the first download stored somewhere so that I can install it and not download it again?

    I download lion already, is it store somewhere so that I can install it?

    If the download completed successfully and you haven't installed it, the installer can be found in your Applications folder.

  • WHEN TRYING TO DOWNLOAD FIREFOX FOR MY LAPTOP WHO SHOULD THE FILE SAY ITS COMING FROM~SO I KNOW I HAVE A TRUSTED SITE TO DOWNLOAD FROM?

    I'm trying to download firefox for my laptop...but when I start to download when it says who the file is coming from it does not say Mozilla or Firefox or anything familiar so I want to make sure I am on the right page and downloading the right thing so I don't invite a virus onto the laptop

    If apps are popping up that need an update and it is the "friend's" Apple ID, those are apps that he downloaded to your iPad.
    Anyway...Settings>iTunes & App Stores>Apple ID>Tap the ID and sign out. Sign in with your ID.

  • I own PSE 7 on disc. The laptop it was loaded on died. My new laptop doesn't have an optical drive so I downloaded PSE 7 from the Adobe site. It downloaded fine but I cannot start using it until I enter a S/N. The S/N on the disc box doesn't work.

    Those links weren't particularly helpful to me. They convinced me to install the drivers for my USB 2.0 card, but that didn't make a difference. Still no OS X without a PRAM reset if I've dared to venture into OS 9.
    It's always been my understanding that an unblessed System Folder will not be selectable in OS 9's Startup Disk control panel. My folders are blessed and healthy. Of course I'm running 9.2.2, as stated in my first message. I also frequently verify and repair my disks and permissions.
    I did a verbose startup of OS X, and noticed something funny about "ATY...too old." Perhaps this problem is related? I ventured into my system.log file and there it was, repeated over and over, everytime I've booted this computer:
    Aug 8 18:30:24 localhost kernel: From path: "/pci/@d/pci-ata@1/ata-4@0/disk@0:10,\mach_kernel", Waiting on <dict ID="0"><key>IOPathMatch</key><string ID="1">IODeviceTree:/pci/@d/pci-ata@1/ata-4@0/@0:10</string></dict>
    Aug 8 18:30:35 localhost kernel: ROM ndrv for ATY,Rage128y is too old (0xb3383430)
    Aug 8 18:30:41 localhost init: kernel security level changed from 0 to 1
    Anyone know how to interpret that? Is it related to my problem? I googled it, and all I found was a web board of people arguing over whether the Apple installed stock ATI Rage video card that came in the G3's is appropriate for Panther. The Ye's have it as far as I'm concerned...as long as I leave OS 9 alone, my video is fine on this computer!

  • If i purchase Lion for my iMac, do I have to purchase separately for my Macbook?

    I want to use iCloud on all my devices and have purchased and am downloading Lion for my iMac.  Do I have to purchase another copy to be able to use my Macbook too?

  • If I buy Lion Server for my iMac can I download Lion for free on my MacAir?

    If I buy Lion Server for my iMac can I download Lion for free on my MacAir?

    Well, it hasn't worked that way for me.
    I bought Lion for $29 from the App Store this morning, and DLed/installed it on my MacBook Pro with no problem.  This afternoon I went to upgrade my Snow Leopard Server Mac Mini.  Went to the App Store, clicked the Lion Server at $49.99, and was prompted that "because this is an OS X server, you must purchase a OS X Lion as well as OS X Lion Server, for $79.98"  [Cancel]  [Purchase Both]
    If I try to install just Lion from my "Purchased" list in App Store, I get exactly the same message.  If I try to install Lion from an install DVD, I get a "checking with App Store" and then the same message.
    Spent over an hour on the phone with Enterprise Sales, who agreed that's not what was supposed to happen, but had no resolution.  It isn't critical to me timewise so they are mulling the situation over.
    My recommendation if you have SLS and clients to upgrade is to do the Lion/Lion Server purchase *first* for the server.  Hopefully then the Lion license will be available for your other machines.  I can't guarantee it, but I can guarantee that the other way *doesn't* work.

  • How can i know if  I can download lion for free ?

    how can i know if i can download lion for free , and if i found i can can i get a refund?

    You must have purchased a new Mac on or after June 6th. You then have 30 days from the release of Lion in which to make your claim. See
    Lion Up-To-Date upgrade
    "The Mac OS X Lion Up-To-Date upgrade is available at no additional charge via the Mac App Store to all customers who purchased a qualifying new Mac system from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller on or after June 6, 2011. Users must request their Up-To-Date upgrade within 30 days of purchase of their Mac computer. Customers who purchase a qualifying Mac between June 6, 2011 and the date when Lion is available in the Mac App Store will have 30 days from Lion’s official release date to make a request."

  • Purchased mac mini server with lion, can i download lion for my macbookpro ?

    Hi,
    I bought a mac mini server with lion server. I have macbookpro with Snowleopard. Do i need to purchase Lion again to install in macbookpro ?
    I registered my mac mini with my apple id .. still when i check app store in my macbook it is asking me to purchase again.
    Can someone clarify ?
    - thanks LP.

    Yes. What came on your Mini cannot be installed on your other computers. You will have to purchase and download Lion for the MBP. If you wish to install Lion server on the MBP, then you will have to purchase and download Lion Server, too.

    Hi Raghavendar,
    Generally, when you install Lync 2013 in the computer with Office 2010, a Lync Meeting Add-in will be installed and enabled in Outlook 2010. Please follow these steps to check it:
    1. In Outlook, click the File tab, click Options, and then click
    Add-Ins.
    2. Please take one of the following actions:
    If the add-in is in the Inactive Application Add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    COM Add-ins, and then click Go.
    b. Click to select the check box next to the add-in, and then click OK.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should be available when you create a new calendar item.
    If the add-in is in the Disabled Application add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    Disabled Items, and then click Go.
    b. Select the add-in, and then click Enable.
    c. Restart Outlook, and then verify that the add-in is displayed in the
    Add-ins dialog box.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should now be available when you create a new calendar item.
    3. In Event Viewer, view the Application log to see whether an error was logged for Outlook, for Lync 2013, the Lync Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office 2013.
    Thanks,

    You can do it. This article from Macworld will be helpful to you:

    I recommend the "brute-force" method.

  • When I select a title in the iTunes Store and click on Play in iTunes I am sent to the download page for iTunes 10 which I have already. The selected title cannot be found anywhere in my iTunes. How can I get the title in iTunes with possibility to buy it

    When I select a title in the iTunes Store and click on Play in iTunes I am sent to the download page for iTunes 10 which I have already. The selected title cannot be found anywhere in my iTunes. How can I get the title in iTunes with possibility to buy it?

    The issue is that your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside in order to purchase iTunes content.
    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching the billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations, although it’s worth nothing that features like iTunes in the CLoud and iTunes Match are designed to work best when using a single iTunes Store account, as you can only switch accounts with these services every 90 days."

    No, those are different apps... The one for your Mac is the computer version, and looks different. Both are developed for their separate OS's: iOS and OSX.
