You will need to call Apple as it is no longer listed in the app store. After paying for it, they will send you a redemption code via email you can use to download it.

  • I have a 10.6.8 OS and want to upgrade to Mountain Lion but when I try the applications tells me my computer can't support it

    I have a 10.6.8 OS and want to upgrade to Mountain Lion but when I try the applications tells me my computer can't support it. What does that mean. I have upgraded to Snow Leopard and was told (by Mac Store) that after that I would be able to update to Mountain Lion.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You need 10.6.8 to upgrade to Mountain Lion, but it doesn't mean that your computer is compatible. Mountain Lion is compatible with Late 2008 Aluminum or Early 2009 MacBooks. If you have an older one, you can't upgrade to Mountain Lion. Read > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs
    If you can't upgrade to Mountain Lion, open  > About this Mac, and tell me what processor and memory you have got. If you have a Intel Core 2 Duo or newer processor, you can upgrade to Lion. Call Apple to purchase Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57 Make a backup of your files before upgrading and check that your apps are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com

    2. OS X Lion and Mountain Lion aren't compatible with PowerPC applications. After upgrading, if you have a PowerPC application (as Office 2004, AppleWorks, old Final Cut Pro editions, etc.), they will be moved to a special folder and they will stop working. Check that your apps are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com
    If you are unable or unwilling to update to Intel versions of your PowerPC applications (if you have any), you can install Snow Leopard Server (with Rosetta) into Parallels or VMWare Fusion and continue to use most PowerPC applications concurrently with Lion or Mt. Lion:

    No one here would have any information as to where the MacBook Pro was purchased.
    Contact the person who gifted the Mac.
    Apple - See if you qualify for a free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade.

  • I have 10.7.5; wanting to upgrade to Mountain Lion

    I have 10.7.5 on my MACBOOK;I am wanting to upgrade to Mountain Lion...but running into compatibility problems.  Is there a fix?

    No. If you don't meet the requirements for Mountain Lion then you are stuck with Lion.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard or Lion to Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
    If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
    A. 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.

  • My Mac Pro running 10.6 Snow Lep cannot connect to App store. I want to upgrade to Mountain Lion but cannot. Can anybody help?

    All attempts to connect to App store have failed with my Mac Pro.  Running 10.6 Snow Lep and want to upgrade to Mountain Lion.  How can I do it???
    So far all advice useless.

    You need to be running at least 10.6.6, and 10.6.8 is better. If you have the App Store icon, you are probably already at that version.
    10.8 is not available to all Mac Pro 65lb tower models. Those made before the 2008 model will not be able to Upgrade at any price.
    10.7 is available if the mac App Store is working, but you will need to CALL Apple Online Store Support to arrange to buy it over the phone. They will sell you a special download code.

  • I want to upgrade to Mountain Lion on my 2gb MacBook Air.  Will it operate ok?

    I have a MacBook Air purchased in May 2009 and have Lion on it.  It seems to have become a bit slow and clunky!  I now want to upgrade to Mountain Lion.  Will the 2GB memory cope with it or not.  Am I able to put additional memory on my Air?

    The MBA's RAM isn't upgradable and while the SSD can be upgraded with third party drives, it voids the warranty. Your computer should run Lion acceptably fast but Mt Lion is a bit of a stretch for a 2GB computer, even with an SSD. Plus, if your computer has something dragging it down with Lion, it isn't likely to get any better with the upgrade to Mt Lion.
    If you want to start tracking down the cause of your slowdown start looking at your hard drive free space (you should have 10-15% empty) and use Activity Monitor to check for rogue processes.

    Thanks, but why can't I buy this online?
    Because Apple withdrew it from the online Apple Store (along with Lion) as soon as Mountain Lion was released. 10.6 is now officialy obsolescent.
    Is there a way around this as the hard store is closed and my phone is useless!!!!
    It's not available in the high street stores - only by phone.

    Hi Tinab127,
    The file may have been moved or deleted. For this issue, we will need to refer to the following article:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408
    Alternatively, I see your media was downloaded from the iTunes Store, you may be able to download it again free of charge:
