How do I upgrade from the Lion Developer to retail version

I have the deverloper version of Lion and I want to updgrade to the retail version. How do I do that?

This is a better question to be asked in the dev forums.
But if you have the latest developer release, it should be the same version as the GM 11A511.

  • Firefox won't allow me to upgrade from the 1.5.0.6 version to the 3.5.2 version. What do I do?

    My actual version is too old, on most websites they keep telling me to upgrade my browser. Ever since I downloaded the 3.5.2 version the problem is even worse: a window keeps opening to ask me to either continue or stop the script...
    When I try to override the older version, a pop-up tells me that I don't have enough "privileges" for the newer version...???

    Okay, I will try to uninstall the old version, but I have no idea what IE means nor what a FF profile is... I am new to Mac and I know zero about keeping a computer up to date. This one was given to me a year ago and I have had no problems whatsoever until I tried to update my Firefox a few weeks ago. Ever since then, I have problems on most websites and I can't vision a pps in my email without fiddling with the settings a bit. My photo library keeps disappearing out of my Iphoto app and I have never been able to open any e-mail attachment with a .wmv
    Other than that, everything is peachy-keen and I will NEVER go back to a regular PC with windows! I love my Mac! I just know nothing about how to take care of it and keep it up to date :0(
    Thank you for taking the time to answer me!

  • I have version 10.6.8 and want to get icloud.  How do I do that? Can I also upgrade to the lion?

    I have version 10.6.8 and want to get icloud.  How do I do that? Can I also upgrade to the lion?

    Open the Mac App Store and try purchasing Mountain Lion 10.8. If you get told it's incompatible, choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, check if the computer has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU with at least 2GB of RAM, and if it does, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion 10.7.

  • How do you upgrade from Mac OS x 10.6.8 to Lion?

    How do you upgrade from Mac OS x 10.6.8 to Lion?

    First check to be sure your hardware meets the hardware requirements for Lion.
    Backup your data. I suggest a bootable clone as the way to go.
    Then open App Store and purchase and download the Lion installer.
    Then install Lion.

  • How can I upgrade from Lion OS X to Mountain Lion OS X

    Hi my question is "How can I upgrade from Lion OS X to Mountain Lion OS X?"
    I don't want to lose any data from my current Lion OS X, at the same time I don't have enough external HDD to backup. I tried to do the same was as http://www.apple.com/osx/how-to-upgrade/ says but I didn't get Mountain Lion OS X as an option for update.
    Pleade advice,
    Mustafa

    Well, right.  In 99.99% of cases you shouldn't lose any data.
    But if something goes wrong, well, if you don't have a backup you're SOL.
    You truly don't have ANY drive that you're using for Time Machine?
    FYI: It's not a matter of IF, but WHEN, your hard drive will fail.  It will eventually happen, so you should have a backup, unless you don't have any data you care about.

  • TS1702 how do i delete from the startup disk? I am trying to get Mountain Lion from the App store and it says that the purchase was not complete because i need 4.06 GB space to download OS x 10.8. and to remove items from my startup disk to increase space

    how do i delete from the startup disk? I am trying to get Mountain Lion from the App store and it says that the purchase was not complete because i need 4.06 GB space to download OS x 10.8. and to remove items from my startup disk to increase space. How?
    Thanks

    You can use iCloud with 10.7.5. You do not need to upgrade to Yosemite. You should provide a minimum of 15 GBs of free space or 10% of the hard drive's capacity, whichever is greater.
    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

    how do i upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mt Lion?

    You need to be updated to 10.6.8 which you likely are if you are in the App Store, and second your mac has to be suitable to install MLion. Check this link for supported models.

  • How can I upgrade from OS X Snow Leopard to OS X Lion?

    How can I upgrade from OS X Snow Leopard to OS X Lion?

    Well Mt Lion is the latest, but if your machine can't do 10.8, then call Apple via phone and order 10.7
    However you really need to do your homework first, as a lot of software and drivers could stop in 10.7, no Rosetta like in 10.6, could cost you plenty.

  • HT1338 How do I upgrade from 10.5.8 to Mountain Lion?

    How do I upgrade from my iMac 8,1 from 10.5.8 to Mountain Lion, the current release?

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:
