You weren't allowed to download it 'free' from the Mac Apple Store. You were allowed to download the 10.8.4 update from the Apple Downloads site which would allow you to update your currently installed version of Mountain Lion to the 10.8.4 version.
Go to the App Store in your Apple menu and buy Mountain Lion if you want it.

  • How I can install the downloaded software to my PC

    hi, somebody knows how I can install the software downloaded from apple to my windows PC???

    You can't. ViddyUp is for OS X only. It doesn't operate under Windows. Look at the System requirements here: http://www.splasm.com/viddyup/index.html
    For the other software I don't know, look at the sytem requirements and choose to download accordingly.

  • I downloaded an update for IPhoto.  How do I install the download?

    I just had Apple migrate from my old computer to a new MacBook Pro.  I can't view my iPhoto pix because it says I need to format them to be compatible with the new machine.  It told me what to download and install.  I have downloaded successfully but now cannot find how/where to do the install.

    I think you should have a .dmg file where-ever you have chosen to have downloads go. Double click on that, it should open,install and update. If you press Cloverleaf+ F,  you ought to be able to find it, in the box that comes up, type in iPhoto and the update should be there.
    good luck to you

  • How do I install the download for Firefox 6.0 for windows in English?

    I have downloaded the new Firefox four times at least, but I do not find any steps to install it. What is next??

    Hi Ekimsmada,
    You may see that message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page. That page is no longer being maintained by Google.
    You should try changing your home page to:
    about:home
    If you don't know how to change the home page, you should take a look at the Knowledge Base article [[How to set the home page]].
    Hopefully this helps

  • When I try to install 3.6.18 I get a message that the installation failed because an other copy of Firefox was running. But this is not the case. How may I install the downloaded new version?

    I have tried to install this new version several times, but each time I got the same message. I have no other program running on the PC when I perform this installation. My present version is 3.6.16.
    Best regards
    Tor Blaasmo

    That file might have moved to a different location on the server. I think you'll need to check with RefWorks support or your local IT department on why the install page links do not work.

  • HT1461 Using a G5. I've installed windows 7. However, no sound. My copy of Lion 10.7.4 is a download (I have an install usb). How do I install the service preferences for windows 7?

    Using a G5 with Lion 10.7.4. Using boot camp have installed windows 7 in an equal partition and it appears to be running alright. Problem--no sound.
    My Lion install was from a online download. Since then have made a bootable usb. How do I install the windows service preferences from Lion?

    Not on a G5 because a G5 is a PPC machine and won't run anything past Leopard.

    Sounds like you downloaded the OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 Update or Combo Update. Neither will work on a version of OS X prior to OS X Mavericks. Those are only used to update an existing install of OS X Mavericks. The Combo will update any version from 10.9.0 thru 10.9.4. The Update will only update version 10.9.4.
    You need the full installer of OS X Mavericks from the App Store. However, the App Store no longer offers OS X Mavericks. Yosemite is the new FREE OS X.

    Ah, you didn't read the fine print on installing Lion, did you? None of your old software will run in Lion.
    You have two choices:
    A) Buy all new or updated software
    B) Partition the hard drive and install an older version of OSX to run your older apps.
    You did not give us any idea of what PowerPC apps you were running, so additional options:
    C)  Restore to Snow Leopard
    D)  Install Snow Leopard (and Rosetta which runs PowerPC apps) in Parallels 7 in Lion:

  • DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET THE DOWNLOAD MAC OSX 10.7.0 BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW MUCH I TRY I CANT FIND IT

    DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET THE DOWNLOAD MAC OSX 10.7.0 BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW MUCH I TRY I CANT FIND IT

    AS mentioned, you need 10.6.8 & the App Store first, it's not available any other way, & 10.7 instead of 10.8 requires a call to Apple...
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
    Buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

    i bourgt 10.7 Lion, but i cnt´t install it. All the last updates are downloaded. I see the sign of the lion, but not clear- there stand the download stopped. How can i continue the download?

    In that case, drag the Lion installer from your application folder to the trash. Empty trash. Now press option key and click on 'purchased' tab. The button next to the Lion installer now should say 'install' click on that to download again.

  • How do i install logic 8 on osx 10.8.5

    how do i install logic 8 on osx 10.8.5

    Here's the basic method thanks to CCT...
    Make Disk Images of all the installer disks using Disk Utility
    Mount all the images
    Download Pacifist, and run it
    In the main Logic Studio installer, there is an Alias called "Install Logic Studio". Control Click and select "Show Original".
    There is a LogicStudio.mpkg multipackage, and a folder of Packages (Note the.mpkg will crash Pacifist)
    Drag each individual package from this folder to Pacifist, select the .pkg and click "Install"
