How to download through Mac App Store if on 10.6.8?

Hi!
I got a clean new install of OS 10.6.8 on my laptop (i CANT upgrade to Lion, as i NEED Rosetta for my old Imacon scanner software).
Previously I purchased iWork components through App Store. Now i can't download them - there is no download button, only a "OS 10.7 required" message.
Now, as I said before, i don't wan't and can't upgrade as it will negatively affect my productivity.
Does that mean that I lost access to my legally purchased Apple software?
Even if i try to find a trial version somewhere, I dont have a serial number, as, again, I purchased iWork on Mac App Store.
Is there any solution for my trouble?
Thank you!

I think you have to talk to the App Store about it.

    Well, you can cancel your Snow Leopard order if it hasn't already shipped. You need not wait on it as you can download Mountain Lion now that you have a redemption coupon (I assume that's what you meant by the email.)
    After Mountain Lion is installed you can download a free copy of Mavericks. This all assumes that your computer meets the requirements for Mountain Lion.
    Before you do any upgrade I strongly urge you to do this:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Personally, I would erase the hard drive then install the new OS X version. First, make a backup of your files from which you can later restore.

    Delete the App Store app by dragging it and dropping it into the Trash.  Then download and install the appropriate update combo for your version of OS X;
    Install new MAS app -
    OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3 update combo

  • How do I get Mac App Store on my computer? I have 10.5.8 OS. If I need to upgrade first how do I do that? It says that my software is updated.

    How do I get Mac App Store on my iMac? I have 10.5.8 OS. If I need to upgrade first how do I do that? It says that my software is updated.

    And once you get Mac OS X 10.6 installed, update it to at least 10.6.6 which was the first version to include the Mac App Store (the latest version is 10.6.8). The DVD you get will almost certainly be only 10.6.3. You can update from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 via Software Update, or you can download a standalone Combo updater (Support tab above, then Downloads).
    Regards.

  • Am I qualify to join Mountain Lion if I purchased Lion through Mac App Store lately in early July

    I purchased the Mac OS X Lion through Mac App Store in early July. Am I qualify to join the Up-to-date program for Mountain Lion? If yes, how is this be done?

    No you are only qualified for an update when you bought a mac that doesnt include mountain lion. Buying the older version OS X lion does not fall into that category.
    From apple website :
    If you recently bought a new Mac that doesn’t include OS X Mountain Lion, you can upgrade for free from the Mac App Store. You may qualify for the Up-to-Date Program if you bought your Mac from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller on or after June 11, 2012.

  • How do i cancel Mac App store download?

    The computer is on a slow DSL internet and I need to cancel a 1GB dwonload that is shown to be estimated to take over an hour and a half to download so I want to perform the download at a later time.  There appears to be absolutely no way short of Force Quit to stop a download.
    Or is there?

    [sarcasm \on]
    Yes, what was I thinking????
    How UNINTUITIVE I am for NOT making the OBVIOUS connection to open LaunchPad in order to pause/cancel/stop any downloads that I initiate through the App Store "Updates" section!
    DUH!
    The answer was in front of my face all this time and I couldn't connect the dots.
    And here I was thinking of all kinds of happy thoughts with my Macs and OS X and it's much vaunted "ease of use."
    I should "Just Think Different."
    [sarcasm \off]
    Whew, I really had to get that off my chest, especially as an Apple user since the Apple ][+, this obtusive way of pausing software updates under Mountain Lion is very disconcerting.
    Many thanks Mendel!  Appreciate the assist here...

  • How can I copy installation/setup files of an App downloaded from Mac App Store?

    I just purchased and downloaded Xcode on my Macbook Pro and now want to install the same on my MacBook Air and iMac but I don't want download them again and again. Isin't their anyway by which I can copy the installation/setup files of that App and paste it on another Mac and use my iTunes account credentials to verify the App with Apple servers, so that they know it's legit install. And also keep the copy as backup so that, I can install that App again after I format my computer or use it for future use.
    I live in a third world country and aren't blessed with high speed and unlimited bandwidth connection.

    Issue solved:
    Answer found in Apple FAQ's site: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4482
    The Mac App Store remembers all apps you purchase with your account. Apps you purchase and install from Mac App Store can also be copied to an external hard drive, USB Flash Drive, CD/DVD, or backed up via Time Machine.
    If you save a copy of an app to removable media (such as an external hard drive) or file share, simply drag the app back from its storage location to your Applications folder. When you open the restored app for the first time, you may be required to sign in with the Apple ID account that was used to purchase the app.

  • HP printer updates through Mac App Store

    Hello! I have a HP Photosmart 6520 printer since last week. I've done a wi-fi installation following the steps of the HP software that was with the printer. The last (and only) update has been via the touch screen of the printer itself because the Mac App Store didn't show any update. I'd like the next updates to be via the Mac App Store. How can I do? Should I re-install the printer through System Preferences > Printers and Scanners instead of through the HP software?
    (Just to be clear, I'm talking about this: OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download - Apple Support)

    You can get drivers directly from the manufacturer.

    Now restart your Mac, turn the printer off wait ten seconds then turn it back on.

    I downloaded a free app in the Mac App Store many months ago, after I got bored of it I deleted de App but now the Mac App Store is requesting me to update the mentioned app which I don't want anymore. How can I make it stop requesting me the update?
