I bought windows 8 from the Microsoft store. How do I download it on my mac to burn on a dvd as it is an exe file?

Hello,
I just bought Windows 8 and have now got a downloadable link with a product key. How can I download it on my mac so I can burn it on a DVD to start the Bootcamp? When I press to download, it wont as it is an exe file. I tried to download it on a windows computer so I can burn it but it asked to input the Product key, so was quite weary as it might have registred windows on that laptop.
Any suggestions?
Cheers
Yiannis

mine was an exe too but it's an upgrade from windows7
so one had to install windows7 and then run the exe file from there
not sure if you also bougth an upgrade if so then you need a win7 too

I just bought Lion from the app store and I was wondering how long it will be there for because you can't buy a hard copy of it and I was told they were fazing it out so if my computer crashes and I need to install it again will it still be there??

FWIW, your profile shows that you are already on Lion - did you buy Mountain Lion?
If you purchase an OS from the Mac App Store, it will be listed under your Purchases and will be available to download again if you need it. Note: the license is only for you and is not transferable; if you sell your Mac, you must uninstall it and reinstall the original system.
If you did buy Lion - out of curiosity - since it is no longer showing in the app store, how did you buy it there? Or did you call Apple and they sent you a redemption code?

Retrieving bought music from the apple store to iTunes

Does anybody know how to retrieve bought music from the apple store into your iTunes? I reinstalled iTunes and I can't seem to retrieve my music I bought from the store. Can anyone help?

When you reinstalled, did you erase the entire drive? If not, your music should still be in the iTunes folder in your Documents -> Music folder. Take a look there. If it's there, you can get it back into the iTunes library listing by using the Add to Library command and selecting the iTunes Music folder.
Hope this helps.

Why won't iPhoto download after i have bought it from the app store and installed mavericks

why won't iPhoto download after i have bought it from the app store and installed mavericks?

Sorry no mind readers here so you have to tell us details, context and any error messages - just stating an abstract problem that could have thousands of causes is not enough
What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? what has changed since it worked? How are you trying to open it (clicking on the icon in the Dock, double clicking on the application in the applications folder, ???)?
Anything else you can tell a total stranger who can not see you or your computer to let them assist you?

HT2731 how do you enable cookies from the iTune store so I can download music

how do one enable cookies from the iTunes store so I may download music?

Search for music and then buy it.
If you already have music you want to import to the iPhone, connect it to your computer and open the iTunes application on the computer, and start a sync (in the lower right of the window).

I bought Aperture from the App store & now it wants to charge me again.

I bought Aperture from the App store 2 years ago. I have now bought a Macbook pro but when I go back to the App store it wants to charge me £53 again. According to the rules I'm supposed to be able to use it on more than one machine. Any advice?

From the Mac App Store, click on the Purchases tab at the top, sign into the account that you used to purchase Aperture, then it should show up as available to download.

Ok, so I just worked out that itunes communicates through your browser so it's a cookie in the browser not PC direct that fixes this. Bit of a convoluted route but for me it was IE>Internet setting>privacy>sites, then allow all activity from apple.com/itunes.

I got Compressor from the Apple Store: how to reinstall?

Thanks Russ.
I've signed in and clicked on my account but I don't see any history of my orders (there should be several - FCPX, Lion, Aperture...)
Where should I click?
update: found it.
Hope it works this time - otherwise Compressor has been a complete waste of money.

No. You need to buy it for your Apple ID and for the other. You will have problems with updates

I've downloaded OS X Mountain Lion from the App store , it still shows download on purchases . I've downloaded multiple time and still shows download.

Is this what you see?
That Download button is telling you it is available for downloading. Since you have paid for it and you are entitled to multiple downloads, that button is correct.
