I Can't download OSX Mountain Lion Completely

I Have purchased OS X Mountain Lion yesterday, but it didn't download completely in my Macbook Air, but the billed have issued in my billing. How can I download OSX Mountain Lion anymore without purchase?cause i have already purchased
thank

App Store>Purchases.
Option click on Mountain Lion.

Can you download OSX Mountain Lion more than once on your computers after paying the $19.99

If I purchase mountain lion on my itunes/app store account, can I use that same account on my other mac to download mountain lion without paying another $19.99? I am currently waiting for my email for a free copy but If i can do multiple downlaods without paying extra, I would rather purchase it so I can download mountain lion on my ineligible computer and my newer one too

yes, you can install ML on all the macs you own as long as you use the same Mac App Store ID singing into each of them.

Can I download OSX mountain Lion to more than on laptop

can i download OS X Mountain Lion to more than one laptop without paying again

Apple's US App Store Terms of use (Look Here) state:
Association of Associated Devices is subject to the following terms:
You may auto-download iTunes Auto-Delivery Content or download previously-purchased iTunes Eligible Content from an Account on up to 10 Associated Devices, provided no more than 5 are iTunes-authorized computers.
An Associated Device can be associated with only one Account at any given time.
You may switch an Associated Device to a different Account only once every 90 days.
You may download previously-purchased free content onto an unlimited number of devices while it is free on the iTunes Service, but on no more than 5 iTunes-authorized computers.
So, yes, as @GreatGold said above, you can download and use Mac OS X Mountain Lion on up to 5 computers provided the other computers are owned by you and they are associated with the same Apple ID through which you purchased Mountain Lion.

Where can I download OSX Mountain Lion. I'd purchased it in the past and now my purchases list only shows Maverick.

I'd purchased Mountain Lion on release date and Maverick on release date as well. I realized my old Macbook Pro (late 2007) is supported by Mountain Lion, so I want to upgrade it from 10.6.8. However, in the App Store purchases I only see Maverick and search the App Store doesn't bring up Mountain Lion.

I tried that on both the old machine (10.6.8) and new one (10.9.2) and see just Maverick. I'm logged in the same Apple account for both. I see that I made the purchase in my receipts on July 26, 2012.

It would help to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.

Can't install OSX Mountain Lion, on the disk selection screen i cant select the Macintosh HD to install OSX giving a message (This disk cannot be used to start up your computer).only have one disk to select and my partition map scheme is GUID partition

just bough OSX Mountain Lion, my laptop operating with v10.6.8. Can't install OSX Mountain Lion, on the disk selection screen i cant select the Macintosh HD to install OSX giving a message (This disk cannot be used to start up your computer).only have one disk to select and my partition map scheme is GUID partition table. 24.44gb disk available.

Verify your computer can run Mountain Lion:
Upgrading to Mountain Lion
To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Open Disk Utility and verify the drive is partitioned using GUID and formatted Mac OS Extended, Journaled. If it is then 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.
Now try installing Mountain Lion.

I have just downloaded OSX Mountain Lion. I have Canoscan LiDE 110. I am continuously getting an error message, "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly. Application Specific Information: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException

I have just downloaded OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.3 and installed it on my lap top. I have Canoscan LiDE 110. I am continuously getting an error message, "MP Navigator EX quit unexpectedly when ever I try to scan a document. Application Specific Information: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NS Invalid Argument Exception..."
Please let me know how to solve this problem.

According to www.roaringapps.com the MP Navigator EX does not run on Mountain Lion.
There are different versions of MP Navigator available depending on the Canon device you have. And there are version of this app that do work on 10.8. So www.roaringapps.com would need to amend their statement.

Instead I use Canon Solution Menu EX, which does even more for you than the MP Navigator. This Solution Menu runs perfectly on Mountain Lion.
Solution Menu is just a front-end for other Canon applications. When you click on the Use Scanner menu and select Auto Scan, OCR or Attach To E-mail, MP Navigator will open.
As for the OP, they can obtain the latest version of MP Navigator, which is 10.8 compatible, and the supporting scanner driver via this link.

And you don't need to uninstall an older version. The new version will overwrite.

Can i put osx mountain lion on a 1998 i mac

can i put osx mountain lion on a 1998 i mac

Klaus pretty much sums it up.
This iMac is 15 years old.
Plus, this was THE very first model of iMac. It had a lot of hardware/software limitations.
The Internet was different place, then.
There is no way this iMac will stream any online video content. And probably NOT even play downloadable online video content.
You can't even install a more up to date OS X version (like OS X 10.4 Tiger- which came out in 2005) to even attempt to access the more modern Internet and maybe have a chance of getting a useful Internet experience out of this iMac.
More improved models of this iMac design that came after (2000-2001) could run OS X 10.4 Tiger, at least making these iMacs more suitable to use and navigate today's Internet.
Your model was the first of its kind and had a lot of bugs that were eventually worked out of it over time and newer models.

Ever since i downloaded OSX Mountain Lion, Express VPN no longer works properly for me. Even though it says I am connected, webpages refuse to load. However, everything works fine when its turned off. I cannot go on many websites without the VPN.

Ever since i downloaded OSX Mountain Lion, Express VPN no longer works properly for me. Even though it says I am connected, webpages refuse to load. However, connection speed is fine when its turned off. I cannot go on many websites without the VPN. My current location is Shanghai, China. OSX Mountain was installed this morning and everything worked fine until then. Is Express VPN not supported? What do i need to do in order to get it working again on my Macbook Pro (early 2011). I want to be able to go on websites such as Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, ect...

Hi,
I am having the same issue listed above on my new Mac Mini i just bought, I also contacted Express VPN support and got the same instructions with exception of the command to run in the utilities terminal. I tried the steps listed, and both commands (posted here, and sent to me directly by Express VPN support), and still unable to connect on my Mac Mini running OS X 10.8.2, but I am able to connect on my iPad and my MacBook which is running Mac OS X 10.6.8. Usually Express VPN is spot on with their customer support, but this is taking longer to get resolved. Here is the steps sent to me
Try doing the following to see if the problem gets resolved:
Please follow the instructions here: https://www.expressvpn.org/support/setting_dns_servers_mac_os
(should still be the same for Lion) and then add the following DNS servers: 8.8.8.8 & 208.67.222.220. After adding the DNS servers, please do the following steps as well:
Note: If you're connecting to your ISP via a PPPoE connection, then set the DNS servers on the PPPoE connection itself and then restart your computer for the DNS settings to take effect.
1. Click on Applications
2. Click on Utilities
3. Click on Terminal
4. Type the following command (without the quotes): "sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder"
5. Press enter and then try reconnecting to the VPN.
If you're still unable to connect, please send us in the latest log files.
Hope this helps. Let us know how it goes.

What's installed on your computer? If you don't have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later then you cannot get Lion. If you already have Lion installed then you cannot re-download from the App Store until you have reinstalled Snow Leopard.
