How can I purchase Lion from Apple store? Options available are "send to friend" or "copy link"

I cannot make purchases from the Apple store.  I want to upgrade to LION, but the only options I see are "Send to friend" or "Copy link".
I do not see any place to sign in--I may be blind--but the site isn't user friendly enough for me to find the sign in area.
Any suggestions as to where it may be or other options to be able to purchase from Apple?

Also you are posting in an iMac forum, you indicate you have a MacBook Pro. While I'm sure the others have provided correct solutions it's important to post in the correct forum too.

  • How can I purchase apps from app store located in different region

    I am trying to purchase some apps from app store from different region. It says my apple ID is only allowed in north US. Is there any way I can do that?
    thanks

    I called apple hotline and was told it's "impossible" to purchase apps from different region outside of US. I tried to use my apple ID to purchase and came back the message saying my apple ID only valid in US region.
    So I tried to create another ID to register in different region. It appears I need another credit card number and address in that region in order to register and make purchase.
    I see they are selling iTunes card in Walmart. I wonder if I can buy that kind of card to use it in app store. If ..... if they sell that kind of card outside of US, can I have my friend purchase one there and use it in app store? I hope there is a way to work around this region issue. The rep I talked to know nothing and did not even try to get me a good answer for this.

  • My MacBook Pro came with Lion pre-installed so I can't re-download it from the app store. Is it possible to get the installESD.dmg file and how can I get it if I can't re-download Lion in Apple Store option?

    My MacBook Pro came with Lion pre-installed so I can't re-download it from the app store. Is it possible to get the installESD.dmg file and how can I get it if I can't re-download Lion in Apple Store option?

    FYI Mac OS X is not designed to be installed on additional Macs, unless you purchased it from the App Store, in which case you can make as many copies as you wish and install it on as many Macs as you own.
    From the Recovery Disk Assistant -
    Notes
    If the computer shipped with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, the external recovery drive may only be used with the system that created it.
    If the system was upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion purchased from the App Store, the external recovery drive can be used with other similarly-upgraded systems.

    Thanks for the feedback. Now, before installing in, put a copy some place safe and you won't have to download it again, wasting bandwidth, time, and electricity. Why? Because the installer blows itself away during the installation—IMO, a braindead delivery system, copied from their iOS world, but totally unsuitable for computers.

  • How can i download lion from 10.6.8 because I can not find the download on the app store?

    How can i download lion from 10.6.8 because I can not find the download on the app store?

    The only way you could get Lion for free was if you had purchased a new Mac within a certain number of days before Lion's release. Buyers could then get a free upgrade to Lion. That offer is long gone. Otherwise, it's never been free.
    Mavericks, 10.9.x is the first OS Apple has ever released for free to everyone (who's Mac can run it).

  • How can I purchase products from the app store while travelling outside my country of residence?

    How can I purchase products from the app store while travelling outside my country of residence? We are from Canada, travelling in the USA and wish to buy a TV series but get a message to buy it from the Canadian store. When we tried to do this we got the same message.

    According to the terms of sale, you have to be in your country of residence in order to make a purchase. I've heard of people able to make purchases outside their country and also of people being unable to do so. It appears that Apple's enforcement is not 100%.
    In order to buy from the U.S. iTunes Store, you would need to have a valid billing address in the U.S., a credit card billed to that address or an iTunes Gift card purchased in the U.S. and be physically present in the U.S. at the time of purchase.
    International copyright law is currently very inconvenient for the consumer.
    Best of luck.

    Apple doesn't do exchanges. Sell your 4S & use the proceeds to purchase an iPhone 5.

  • How can i pay on the apple store online with two credit cards, with two different billing addresses

    I will be greatful if you could answer me this question...
    How can i pay on the apple store online with two credit cards, with two different billing addresses?
    I know that you can use two credit cards to pay an item but the problem is that i can only put the billing address of just one of the credit cards, and since the two cards are from different people (my parents) i can't do it. They live in the same place so i don't know if i should just put one of the billing address.
    Thank you.
    PS. I don't know if this is the right community to ask this, sorry if i'm wrong.

    On the Apple Store "Payment & Pricing" page it states:
    Using more than one payment card
    You can also combine payment methods to pay for your purchase. Choose from the following combinations of credit cards and Apple Gift Cards:
    Credit card(s) - up to two
    Apple Gift Card(s) - up to eight
    Apple Gift Card(s) + one credit card
    During checkout, if you are paying with a gift card issued by a credit card company, you can combine it with one credit card.

  • How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions?

    How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions?  I am fimilar with changing the setting for all network partitions(defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores true), but that is undesirable when I connect my laptop to my home network. A preferable solution would be where I could control the writing of these files based on disk format (NTFS vs HFS+).

    Go to MacUpdate or CNET Downloads and search for ds_store. There are numerous utilities for preventing them from being transferred to Windows systems.

  • How can i buy films from App store spain wenn i'm living in Switzerland? Or how can i buy films in original version with subtiltes?

    How can i buy films from App store spain wenn i'm living in Switzerland? Or how can i buy films in original version with subtiltes?
    Do i need diferents id for each App store? I speak spanish, german and english and i would like to be able to buy films in each diferent language.
    I also have € from a card from App Store Spain that i cannot use because i only have acces to App store switzerland. Can anybody help me? Thanks a lot

    You need to be in a country to buy from its store, so whilst you are in Switzerland you can only use the Swiss store - you will need to be in Spain to use the Spanish store.
    On each film's description page in the store there should be a list of the language(s) and/or subtitles that it has on it e.g. here in the UK one of the new releases, Svengali, has listed on its description page :
    If there is a particular film that you would like to buy in a particular language that is not currently available in the Swiss store then you can try requesting that it be added, but unless the Swiss rights-holder for the film agrees to it then Apple won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
    All iTunes gift cards are country-specific, so you will only be able to redeem and use the Spanish gift card when you are in Spain with a Spanish billing address on your account.

    How can I purchase music from itunes in another country?

    You can't - the Terms of Use of the stores state that you can only buy from the country that you are in (e.g. due to licensing/distribution terms etc)
