How to purchase and download Mac OS X v10.7 Lion in 2012?
Hello,
I have an old mbp (2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, late 2006) for which i have recently ordered RAM (max at 3gb) and an SSD.
I plan on upgrading from the current OS, Snow Leopard (10.6.8) to Lion (10.7) as i do not believe Mountain Lion (10.8) will run tolerably in this mbp.
I had never purchased Lion so i have found myself in a pickle.
How do i get it?
I've been browsing the forums and searching the net for hours now and all the tips boil down to figuring out previous purchases or hidden applications in the AppStore.
I have never purchased Lion, i want to do so now... How can i do that?
Thank you
Phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for it.

I want to install Lion on an external hard drive. The OS was purchased and downloaded through the App Store but I do not know where the file is.
If you downloaded the installer it will be in your applications folder. Failing that use spotlight start typing Install and it should show up.
This is assuming you downloaded the installer from the app store, and didn't just install it onto your mac. If all you have done is install it on your mac. Go to your purchases Lion should show up. Then click download.
Here is the Support page for installing osx on an external drive.
OS X: Installing OS X on an external volume - Apple Support
Hope this helps.

Today while driving home from vacation i purchased and downloaded the new Nichleback CD, when i got home, i plugged my phone into my computer to update everything and it pulled up a message saying something like "this computer has recognized an iPhone that is in memory update, you will need to restore the phone" or something similar to that, it had a picture of the power cord plugging into iTunes on the screen and i couldn't get rid of it, so i had to plug it in and restore everything, when it was done i noticed that not only did i loose the new CD that i had just purchased today but i lost all of the music that i've purchased since the last update. How can i restore this music without purchasing it all again?
Media should be included with the backup of the computer that all users should be creating on a regular basis as part of basic computer/data maintenance.
In the event that you do not have a backup (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files)
If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.
If you are not in the US or for some reason cannot run iTunes 10.3 or later, contact iTunes customer support and ask very nicely for the opportunity to redownload the content. They are not required to provide this opportunity.
It is also possible to transfer content from an iDevice that was purchased via iTunes. On the new computer, sign into the iTunes account, authorize the computer, connect the device then select File > Transfer Purchases.
The simplest method of all is to transfer or copy the media (and other important files) from the old computer or the backup of the old computer. Typing "move itunes library" into the search bar here or into google will reveal step by step instructions on how to do this. -
I have purchased and downloaded some TV Shows through iTunes. How can I watch them on my iPad without an internet connection?
Demo the same thing happened to me. I purchased a seasons pass for Sons of Anarchy Season 6 and I've got the eposides on my IPad but Airplay won't allow me to watch the episodes without an internet connection or WiFi. Is there anything else I can do so that I can watch these eposides without an internet or wifi connections?

The iTunes library on our laptop is correct and up to date with recent purchases and downloads; however, our desktop does not have any of these when using it. Home sharing is turned "ON" with both computers. Why is the desktop not showing the same content and how do I resolve this?
From your OLD computer...
Copy your ENTIRE iTunes FOLDER to an External Drive... and then from the External Drive to your New Computer..

Hi Brooke,
There are very simple steps to download creative cloud on your other machine as well.
You can follow the below links:
Creative Cloud Help | Install, update, or uninstall apps
Download Adobe Creative Cloud apps | Free Adobe CC trial
After downloading you can sign in to creative cloud desktop application with your Adobe ID and the applications would be activated.

An app I purchased and downloaded directly to my Ipad is missing and not in my app files on my PC. When I go to the app store to re-download it I can not and the app says I have already downloaded it. How do I get my app back?
You should be able to copy it from your iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, or you should be able to re-download it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes Store home page - if that says that it's already downloaded, then that implies that it's already on your computer
