Get Lion for free

i'm trying to go through the free lion form and its asking me for the payment method even though it's free and i don't have a card number to put in there! please help, thanks

If you have a redemption code because you bought a new machine, use that. Otherwise, why do you think it's free? Or have you downloaded and paid for it previously? Then it should work with the same ID.

  • I got my MBP on june 16 so how can i get lion for free?

    i got my macbook pro for birthday and i read that if you purchased it after june 6th you can get lion for free but how do i do that?

    The wording on this page seems convoluted to me:
    "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."
    If I purchased my shiny new Macbook Pro on June 11, according to the first part of the statement, I must request my Up-to-Date upgrade by July 11, yet the second part of the statement states I will have 30 days from Lion's official release date to make my request.
    I am hoping the second statement is the correct one. It would be helpful if Apple fixed this inconsistency...

  • Bought a MacBook Pro middle of 6 days ago. Will I get Lion for free?

    Someone bought me a MacBook Pro six days ago whilst they were in America, and now Lion is out. I heard that if you'd bought a computer after the announcement date you'd get Lion for free when it was released. Is that true?

    Yes you can get Lion for free. Instructions are on this page.  http://www.apple.com/macosx/uptodate/

  • Bought new laptop - get lion for free on SL mini?

    As I understand it - If I were to have bought Lion from the app store, I would be allowed to install it on all of my authorized computers. (right?)
    So anyways, I haev a Mac Mini, with SL on it.  I recently bought a MBA, with Lion on it.  Can I somehow get Lion authorized so that I can get it installed on my mini?

  • Bought Lion when I was supposed to get it for free..

    I bought my MacBook Pro after June 6 and was supposed to get Lion for free. When Lion came out, I didn't know how to go about that, so I got it from the App Store thinking there would be something I had to enter from my receipt and that's how I'd get it for free. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case, so my account was docked $30. As I was waiting for it to download, I found how I was supposed to redeem my free upgrade, and cancelled the upgrade. Now, I don't have Lion, and I'm out $30. Does anyone know how I can get the money back? Thanks!

    Use the email form here  >  Apple - Support - Mac App Store - Contact Support
    Probably be at least 3 business days before you receive a response.
    Explain exactly what happened like you did in your post here and hopefully they'll get it straightened out for you so you can install Lion and receive a refund.

  • Can I upgrade to Mac Lion for free again?

    Hi
    I bought my Macbook Pro in June 2011, and beacse I bought it between a certian timeframe, I was able to upgrade to OS X lion for free from the app store durring a promo or something. All I had to do was put in my Mac serial number to confirm it was right.
    I sort of wnat to restore my laptop back....however, that will make it go back to leapord, not lion.
    I was wondering if there would be some way to re-get lion for free? I know with other aplications, on the iPhone anyway, you can simply click 'buy now' and it says you already had it once, so you can get it again for free... but since I never paid for this, will it make me?
    Thanks, any help is greatly appreciated.

    Just use the recovery feature to restore

  • Lion for free after purchasing a mac?

    I bought a macbook pro at the end of june, in the store they told me i would get lion for free. where do i go and what do i do to get lion for free?

  • How do I get Mountain Lion for free if I bought my Macbook Pro at the right time?

    So I got my Macbook Pro a few weeks ago and I was told I'd be getting Mountain Lion for free. How do I go about this on the app store?

  • If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks wil I get iWork for free, If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks wil I get iWork for free

    If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks will I get iWork for free.

    If you buy a new Mac with Mountain Lion, any included software is free and can be redownloaded from AppStore for that machine only. Some software only gets reinstalled if OS X (only) gets installed over itself to fix issues. See #8 Step here.
    ..Step by Step to fix your Mac
    If you upgrade to Mavericks usually only OS X itself is changed (sometimes the hidden User Library is also), all the  software (and user accounts) also carries over (compatible or not), and Apple's software is upgraded.
    So if your new Mountain Lion Mac comes with free iWork, then when you upgrade to Mavericks it will still be there.
    If your new Mountain Lion does not come with free iWork, then it won't magically appear for free if you upgrade to Mavericks.
    If you need a free Office suit, I suggest you look at the donationware LibreOffice.
    You will likely need to control key or right click to "Open" LibreOffice to approve through OS X's "Gatekeeper".
    You will need to manually update it also, as it's not on AppStore.
    https://www.libreoffice.org/
    Benefit of LibreOffice is it's completely cross-platform compatible, so you can share working files with Windows and Linux users, which you can't with iWork.
    You also should learn Microsoft Office when you have the funds, because it's standardized in the business world.

  • I just got my macbook pro a week ago and i was told that i will get the os x lion a week ago i was told that i can get it for free, is this true and if so how do i get it

    Hi,
    Not that's not normal and is one of the Problems I was having before Restoring as New...
    Just make sure you Sync ALL your important Info... Contacts... Music... Etc... to your Computer...
    and then do a Restore as New...
    i was a bit reluctant at First, because I hadn't done it before... But it was So Easy and am Really Glad I did...

  • A few days ago I bought my first IMAC. I needed to download Mountain Lion, and I would get it for free as it's a new IMAC. Apple sent me a 'content code' - several times - because every time I enter it, it says the code is wrong.
