How to get OS X LION to clean install on late 2007 Black MacBOOK 1.3?

I recently bought a late 2007 Black MacBOOK 1.3.
Wanting to clean install LION, I formated the HDD and cleaned up the recovery partition by fusioning the two partitions!
I had to install LION with the use of a friends account.
This doesn't suit me because if I need something i'm depending of that friend.
Since LION is gone from the APP STORE (at least i'm not able to find it) i'd like to know how can I get it in a legal way to be able, if needed, to do a fresh install of Lion?
Thanks in advance

My late 2007 black macbook gives me electric shocks! Help, can I get compensation for this?

As my question says, my macbook keeps giving me electric shocks. It hasn't done that before and started just about a week ago. My friends dad that had a faulty Macbook Pro got a new one as it would give a few shocks a day... but as the MacBook isn't known for this I'm not sure what to do and how to prove that it does this? Also my fan is really loud, I've been told to get it "hoovered", is this correct?

Hello ndilucci,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with slowed performance. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing. This article is meant for Lion, but the same information applies to Snow Leopard as well.
OS X Lion: If your Mac runs slowly
If you find your Mac is running slowly, check any open applications to make sure they’re compatible with your computer. Or you may need to increase your hard disk space or repair your hard disk.
An application you’re using may require more memory than your computer has. To see how much memory your computer has, choose Apple menu > About This Mac. See the documentation that came with the application to find out what it requires. To find out how to increase your computer’s memory, see the documentation that came with it.
Quit any application that isn’t compatible with your computer. For example, an application may require a different processor or graphics card. See the documentation that came with the application to find out what it requires.
To see what processor your computer has, choose Apple menu > About This Mac.
To see what graphics card your computer has, choose Apple menu > About This Mac, click More Info, and then click Displays.
There might not be enough free disk space on your computer’s startup disk. To make disk space available, you can move files to another disk and then delete files you no longer need on the startup disk.Increase disk space
Quit any applications you’re not using.
If none of these suggestions work, you may need to repair your computer’s disk in Disk Utility.Repair a disk

How to get rozetta with lion?

how to get rozetta with lion?
I have put all of Snow Leopard on an external drive (checked to include Rozetta)
but when I try to use it to start up my computer with Lion installed - it calls this external drive "Recover Drive" and
it asks me to select from 5 options - all of which sound ominous

I'm unable to do a clean install of Firefox 6 on Macbook Pro OSX 10.6.8.

I'm unable to do a clean install of Firefox 6 on Macbook Pro OSX 10.6.8. After trashing the firefox.app from the Applications folder and trashing a related file in the Library folder and then reinstalling, all of my previously opened windows and tabs reappear. And the history and bookmarks are populated too! Then, the computer freezes up so that I must reboot. Because these windows automatically open and the history and bookmarks are populated with my old history and bookmarks, I believe this is not a clean install. Please help.

Click on the blue Internet Recovery in nbar's post. That is a link to what computers can run Internet Recovery.
Do a backup, preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.

OS X Recovery (2)
When you reboot, use Setup Assistant to restore your data.

How to get rpm on Lion

Hey all,
I'm working on setting up some 3rd party software on my Mac Air and Mac Mini both of them running Lion 10.7.1. Now, I've gotten distributions of some of the software as rpm files. Now, unfortunately rpm doesn't come as part of Lion. I looked around and found old projects and distributions that allowed the addition of rpm and other typical Linux tools to osX. I managed to get a version of rpm loaded and configured but ended up with a transaction error once I went to execute it. I believe it has to do with a compatibility issue. When I looked into the version of rpm I got more deeply I found that it was intended for a 32 bit os and both of the Macs are 64 bit.
If anyone has any insight regarding how to get a Lion-compatible 64-bit version of rpm setup and/or other common Linux items into Lion it would be very much appreciated.

How to uninstall Bridge to do a clean install?

How best should I uninstall Bridge (CS2) and all the other Adobe applications that might have anything to do with Bridge so that I can make a completely new clean install?
I have Photoshop CS2 (with ImageReady CS2) and InDesign CS2.
Separately I have Adobe Lightroom 2.3 but that does not use Bridge at all as far as I know. It even uses a different Camera Raw version.
Thanks for the assistance. I am trying to fix a problem where Bridge will not show me any thumbnails except a bunch of white boxes that are not even the correct number of thumbnails for the folder I am trying to display.
I asked a separate question about white thumbnails with no solutions be found.

Hi John,
Tried all that - no luck in getting it fixed as the other discussion mentions.
Need to get rid of everything Bridge related so that I get a good fresh clean install. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop trying to get this fixed but to no avail, so thinking I need to really wipe out everything to do with CS2. Photoshop and Bridge worked for several years, then something happened - probably having to do with the reinstalll of Win XP.
Thanks for your reply.
VB
I thought that might be the case.
So your best bet as you say is to uninstall normally from the Control Panel and then manually remove all files and folders related to CS2.
Remember this is not just in C:\Program files
but also in C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop\9.0
and possibly C:\Program Files\Common Files.
I would then run a registry cleaner like CCleaner: http://www.ccleaner.com/

Mountain Lion via clean install (USB) but wont read dvd/cd

I did a clean install of my mountain lion on my Mid-2009 MacbookPro 15". Everything was running fine. Until I tried to burn a cd. Thought it was a media issue. So didn't bother burning the disc after all. Then I tried playing an audio cd, the systems thinks it's an empty disc. Next tried to load my Snow Leopard installation disc (DVD), it got ejected too. All i get is the following with all cds and dvd, burnt or blank also the same.
I have tried repairing disk permissions before system bootup and also after system bootup via disk utilities. It didn't fix the problem.
I also tried blowing the superdrive with a camera lens blower. Didn't help either.
What else can I do before bringing it to the Genius bar?
Thanks.

I am lucky to have stumbled upon this thread. The drive was dirty.
I took a membership ID plastic card wrapped a lens cloth over, sprayed some glasses cleaning solution, swipe it inside the drive a couple of times... and voila it worked!

How to get Serial Number Registered to Re-install "iWork" ???

I cleaned installed Mountain Lion & I tried to re-install "iWork" that I already registered online with Apple. I do not have the box anymore as I left it in another province, so is there any way that I could get my serial number that I have already registered in my apple account ?

You only need a serial number for iWork if you purchased a license from within the trial. If that was less than 18 months ago, you will find the serial number in your account in the online Apple Store. If it has been more than 18 months, you will either need to find the e-mail you received with the serial number or call the Apple Store at the number at the bottom of this web page.
If it was installed from a retail disk, you need that disk or an image of it to reinstall. Again, the online Apple Store might be able to help.
Last, but not least, you could purchase the needed apps from the Mac App Store.

How to get pics in the iphoto app for iphone back onto my macbook pro

I need to know how to get my pics that are stored on iphone in the "iphoto app for iPhone" back onto my macbook pro's iphoto. macbook was recently wiped out (i didn't back up) during Genius Bar repair

See this support article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
The safest way would be to share all photos that are in iPhoto albums to the Camera Roll. When you connect the iPhone to your Mac and open iPhoto you can download the contents of the Camera Roll just like from any camera.
