How to copy Lion on a CD once installed please help.

hi guys please I hope you can help me. yesterday i installed Lion but made a huge mistake, I forgot to copy it on CD whilst I was still on Leopard. Is there a way I can retrieve it, so I can have a copy just in case anything happens i don't wish to lose it.
do you think that if once i bought it, and anything happens, apple will know automatically that i already installed it on my mac?.
HEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPP!!!!.

Go back to the App store and access your purchased apps. The entry for Lion will be greyed out and say Installed. Option click on this and it should change to Install allowing you to download again. This time don't run the installer and the Installer Package will be left in your Applications folder.
Here's an Apple article on how to do this.
The relevant information is at the bottom of the page.

Actually scratch that!!
I've just tried it and it doen't work despite what Apple is suggesting in the instructions in the article. Perhaps they have not implemented the feature yet.

You've asked a lot of questions the last few days. I think its time you do some reading. The Swing tutorial titled "Creating a GUI Using JFC/Swing: has sections on every component and example code of how to use them. You can even download the entire tutorial and all the example from the following link:

Here's the link specific link to the section on "Using Lists"

HOW DO I START THREADS ALL AT ONCE? please help!

HI! I was just wondering if anybody knew how to start threads all at once. There is the treadgroup stuff but the only method I see there is threadgroup.resume I would like something analogous to threadgroup.start
any ideas?
thanks,
- cunduro

I don't think you can start all threads at the same time. If what you need is to have all threads ready before they begin doing their job, in the run method you can call a method that waits on some object and when all threads are created (and running and waiting on the object) do a notifyAll(). In that moment all threads will resume working.

Hello Smile_333
The article below will assist with finding things and help increase the hard drive space for your computer. The best way is to have an external hard drive to copy things to if you do not want to delete and loose things.

You cannot use it. You would have had to set it up on your ipod itself before you lost it. Since you did not "turn on the icloud", then you have not set up find my ipod.
Sorry.
There is no way to track your ipod.

I keep on getting this error when i try to copy files to my 2T Time Capsule, Please help im running out of space on my MacBook Pro.... The operation can't be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50)

I would get an external drive today and copy all your stuff off the TC.. forget trying to load more onto it. There is a good chance after 3years (A 2TB should be only about 2years tops), the disk or the TC itself is on the way out. Do it immediately. If TM is also failing to backup you need to recognise symtoms of impending doom.
Unfortunately the error messages are archane and it is hard to discover their meaning.
You also cannot verify a network drive.. you can verify the TM sparsebundle though so do that.

Reboot the whole network from off.. certainly if you run later OS it can simply lose the drive..
If you still fail to be able to copy to the TC.. then get that external and copy off it. Tell us if you can do that.

Well, if you have not backed them up, they are gone.
Next time, when you have important material in only one place, back it up.

Did you add or change your credit card details on your iTunes account when downloading them ? If you have then each time that you do so a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.

No idea. What did the folks on the Adobe forums say when you posted there, since it's Adobe's software you're having trouble with?

If you wanted FaceTime, you should not have purchased your phone in the UAE. There is no way to add it back to your phone, as it has been permanently removed.

I reset my phone and it now receives calls that were meant for my husband. I know how to fix this with messaging and facetime, but can't seem to find how to make it stop with the calls. Please help.

It may be due to Continuity
The following quote is from Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
Turn off iPhone cellular calls
To turn off iPhone Cellular Calls on a device, go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.

The personal hotspot is not an app or an icon; it is a setting. You must first have your carrier provision it, then you turn it on in settings. Most carriers charge extra for tethering.
