Get mountain lion back after updates

HEllo.
I Bought a macbook pro 2 years ago, with mountain lion installed.
I made the update to mavericks and some problems occured. So i update to yosemite, and many problems occured.
i´m not satisfied with these os, so i would like to go back to mountain lion.
the problem is that i did not save my system with time machin, i did not download mountain lion installer, so now i can not get mountain lion back...
the reinitialisation utility gives me only mavericks...even when i go online.
IS there a way to get a mountain lion version for free ? I don't want to pay for it, I had it when i pourchase the macbook...
thanks for answers.

Boot into Internet Recovery (command - option/alt - R on a restart). It should install the OS that came with the computer. Note, this can take some time to connect to the server and to install.

    Do you mean the Messages icon has disappeared from your DOCK on your Mac ?
    Or do you mean that Messages does not appear in your Applications folder either ?

  • Is there any way to get your pictures back after updating to maverick?

    is there any way to get your pictures back after updating to maverick?

    Is Aperture not launching at all? Then update Aperture like Ernie recommended. You'll need version 3.5.1, or 3.4.5 with Mavericks. If you have any Aperture 3 version, you should be able to update for free.
    After updating Aperture, make sure you have a backup copy of your Aperture library, before opening it in the new version.  Click the Aperture library, to open Aperture on your library.
    Or, is the problem, that Aperture opened on an empty library? Then check the file system on the drive with your Aperture library. It may have the wrong formatting. Then move your Aperture library to a drive formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled). Click the

  • How could i get Mountain lion back if it came with the macbook i bought?

    Hey everyone!
    i bought a Macbook pro 15 mid 2012, it came with Mountain lion, could i get it back having OS X Yosemite now?
    Also, and more important, how?
    i heard that it's possible from Internet recovery (Restating pulsing Cmd+Option+r, i guess??), but then it would download the OS from apple (Which probably is Yosemite, i don't think their servers still have mountain lion, do they?)
    it's not on the Appstore anymore (Not even Mavericks), and i really don't want to get it from a Torrent.
    Thanks!

    Are you sure i will get Mountain lion after recovering from the internet?
    because that sounds amazing! but i am afraid i erase the whole HD and then i get Yosemite again haha
    After you restart in Internet Recovery and you get to the OS X Utilities Menu, BEFORE you erase your drive look at the OS X icon to the left of the option to Reinstall OS X. THAT will tell you what your machine came preinstalled with and if it's a Mountain Lion, you're good to go.

  • How do I get lost data back, after update  sync all pictures, notes and mail lost

    How do you get pictures, notes contacts and mail back, lost after update on IPhone5

    Restore the backup that you made when you last synced your phone to iTunes on your computer. Alternatively, if you enabled iCloud backup on the phone, you can restore from the latest iCloud backup by going to Settings/General/Reset - Erase all content and settings.

  • HT1414 How can I get my contacts back after update 5.1.1? I've tried everything

    After updating my Iphone 4 to the 5.1.1 version all my contacts are now gone. Ive tried restore and all the tricks everyone suggests. What else can I do?
    Thanks!

    Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for such important data as contacts.
    Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer.
    Contacts can also be synced over the air with an email account that supports this, and there are a number of free accounts that do including an Apple iCloud account, a Gmail account, a Yahoo account, and a Hotmail account.   If you have tried all the tricks everyone suggests and your contacts are not available anywhere else, they are gone.

  • How do I get my bookmarks back after updating to Windows 7?

    I updated to Windows 7 on a new hard drive. I backed up my C:\ drive to a Seagate external hard drive first. After installing Windows & all my programs. I restored the data from my Seagate drive, but I don't have any bookmarks from Firefox. I had over 50 bookmarks and they are all missing. I tried opening the backup and starting Firefox from inside the backup, but I got the newly loaded Firefox with no bookmarks. How can I get them back?

  • How do I get my bookmarks back after update?

    I did the new update on my work Mac a couple days ago and it added all of my Safari bookmarks from my personal MacBook Pro. I deleted a few of the bookmarks that I didn't need on that Mac.
    I just did the update on my MacBook Pro, not thinking anything about it, and now a couple of full folders of bookmarks that I had are gone and all of the bookmarks from my Mac are there too. Is there a way to get my old bookmarks back and to prevent them from disappearing if I delete on one Mac and not the other??
    This is so frustrating...

    You get the import wizard if the profiles.ini file that registers all Firefox profiles is missing.

    You can check if there still is an older profile folder.

  • How do i get my contacts back after updation of the software on iphone 4S

    when i updated my iphone software to ios 6.0 all my contacts got deleted....what do i do?

    Hi there!
    May I confirm whether you used iTunes (while the iphone was plugged into the computer) to perform the update, or if the update was performed "wirelessly" through the device's settings?
    Regardless, your solution should lie within your last backup (typically performed automatically when the phone is "sync'd" with itunes on the computer).
