How do I download purchased Mountain Lion OSX on my second Mac laptop?

How do I download purchased Mountain Lion OSX on my second Mac laptop? The initial download was no problem on my MacBook Pro, but my MacBook already has Lion with only a little more than 2 GB of Memory left. This may be my compatibility problem. Ideas?

I think you'll need to find a way to delete or move files to an external drive to free up some space. Generally, you want at least 10% free space on the HD for best performance. In your case, you probably will not get ML to install. Assuming you are talking about 2 GB of hard drive and nor 2 GB of RAM.

How to upgrade to the coming Lion OSX from 10.5.8

I intend to upgrade to the coming Lion OSX version from 10.5.8. Reading the Apple home page I got the impression an upgrade is only possible from version 10.6.8. So is this true?
greetings Angelo

Tes.
Mac OS X Lion will be available in July as an upgrade to Mac OS X version 10.6 Snow Leopard from the Mac App Store for $29.99 (US). Lion will be the easiest OS X upgrade and at about 4GB, it is the size of an HD movie from the iTunes Store. Mac OS X Lion Server requires Lion and will be available in July from the Mac App Store for $49.99 (US).
Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, runing the latest version of Snow Leopard. The Lion upgrade can be installed on all your authorized personal Macs.
The Mac OS X Lion Up-To-Date upgrade is available at no additional charge via the Mac App Store to all customers who purchased a qualifying new Mac system from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller on or after June 6, 2011. Users must request their Up-To-Date upgrade within 30 days of purchase of their Mac computer. Customers who purchase a qualifying Mac between June 6, 2011 and the date when Lion is available in the Mac App Store will have 30 days from Lion’s official release date to make a request.

Why only available from the App Store?

How to upgrade from PowerPC G4 w/1GB using CS2 to Mac Pro w/2GB running CS3

Hello. I have a Mac PowerPC G4 with 1GB of RAM and I'm running OS X 10.4.11. I'm using CS2 ver 9.0.2.
I have a new Mac Pro with 2GB of RAM and I'm running OS X v10.5.2.
I would like to run CS3 on my new Mac Pro.
Could anyone guide me in accomplishing this? I'd like to buy the upgrade to CS3 of course.
I can't figure out how to do this because of course I want to just load CS3 on the new computer but I want to pay for just the upgrade. And, if I buy the upgrade, I'm not sure my old computer will run CS3.
Thanks,
Deena

Deena,
In addition to the previous comments, before you do this though, I recommend that you put more RAM in your computers (particularly the G4) so they don't choke trying to run CS3, your operating system, and whatever else you have running. Also check your hard drive free space, particularly on your older Mac, so that you have scratch disk space and place to store at least some of your images.
And in preparation for the CS3 installation (which is really quite easy), be sure you boot off the System Disk and use Disk Utility to repair permissions and the disk and boot off the DiskWarrior disk and run repairs as well. Repeat repair permissions after the installation. These maintenance routines will help insure that your new CS3 runs well.
You will find that you have both CS2 and CS3 on your drive. You can safely uninstall CS2 if you wish.
If you have questions about any of this, please get back to us.

How can I backup an external hard drive connected to my mac with time capsule?

The hard drive on my IMac is 500GBytes. It is just about full. I have purchased an additional drive to attach to it permanently through the Firewire 800 interface. My plan is to move my photographs and iTunes to the attached drive. I currently use 2TB time capsule to backup my hard drive. Can I get time capsule to back up the external hard drive as well?
Thanks,
Herb

Can I get time capsule to back up the external hard drive as well?
I assume that you are asking about Time Machine backups to the Time Capsule here, correct?
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Open Time Machine
Click Options
Here, you will see list of items that are excluded from backups. By default, the hard drive attached to your Mac will appear here.
Click on the name of the hard drive to highlight it
Click the - (minus) button to remove the drive from the list of items that are excluded from backups
Now, the drive will be backed up along with your Mac on the next pass that Time Machine makes, and any changes that you make to the hard drive will be backed up as well in the future.

How do I restore files from my WD Passport to my Mac using Time Machine?

I have an iMac (early 2009) running OSX 10.9.1. I use a WD Passport for backup. I need to restore some files from a previous backup to my computer. When I connect Passport and open up Time Machine, I see all the backups. I click on the date that I want and the file that I want. When I select "restore", nothing happens. I think I must be missing a step. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

I'm trying to get some documents from my documents folder that I deleted a few months ago, so I guess what I am trying to do is get my old documents folder back.

Your Mac MUST meet ALL of the minimum requirements to upgrade.
I hope this helps?

I have an Epson scanner that is apparently no longer supported because it is a PowerPC app. It's a very good scanner that worked fine until I upgraded to OS Mountain Lion on my MacBook Pro. Any suggestions on how I can continue to use it?

After upgrading to OS Mountain Lion My separate mailboxes under GMail no longer show up on the screen. I couldn't add another mailbox of the same name "because it already exists". How can I make it show up on the left of the screen under GMail?

After upgrading to OS Mountain Lion my separate mailboxes under Gmail no longer appear on the screen. How can I view them? They are still there because I tried to set up another mailbox with the same name & couldn't "because it already exists".

Move your cursor down slowly to the right of the Gmail Mailbox and it should say show or hide.

How do I keep my email password from remaining in Preferences? I want to enter it every time I get my mail. I upgraded to OS M Lion but it won't let me delete it from preferences. It's worked prior to using M. Lion. Any suggestions? Thanks!! Jen

How do I keep my email password from remaining in Preferences? I want to enter it every time I get my mail. I upgraded to OS M Lion but it won't let me delete it from preferences (the password from Account Info). Once you enter the password, it keeps it permanently. i do not want that. It's worked prior to using M. Lion. Any suggestions? Also, The other pressing issue i have is, I DO NOT want ANY mail showing in my inboxes when Mail starts UNTIL i enter that password for each account. Instead of creating different user accounts for the MacBook, it's just easier this way. Or is it? If this is a permanent thing, then I may switch back to Lion. I guess I shoud've waited until the kinks were out before installing (**** Mac-head!)
Thank you all kindly for any suggestions & your time
Regards,
JC

I DO NOT want ANY mail showing in my inboxes when Mail starts UNTIL i enter that password for each account.
That is simply not possible with Mail, and never has been. Anyone who uses your account can see all messages stored in Mail. The only true solution is to not let other people use your account. Let other people use the guest account, or if you share the machine with someone else, set up a separate user account for that person. This will also solve the problem of remembering the password. It will become a non-issue for Mail to remember your password if nobody else has access to your account.

I recently purchased, from the APP store, Lion for use on my MacBook Pro. I wish to upgrade my IMac to Lion also. Do I need to make a 2nd purchase or will the single purchase suffice? If the single purchase will suffice, how do I facilitate ?

I recently purchased, from the APP store, Lion for use on my MacBook Pro. To upgrade my IMac to Lion, need I make an additional purchase? If not, how do I facilitate the IMac upgrade?

No, you do not need to re purchase Lion. You can re download Lion on all your authorized Macs using the same Apple ID.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.

I recently upgraded my macbook to mountain lion. Before doing so I used time machine to back up my entire laptop with an external hard drive.
When I got my computer back it was clean....all pics, music, documents, bookmarks etc. are gone. How do I get these files off the external hard drive and back onto my laptop with the new upgrade?
