I Just want to download + save a copy of the OS I have paid for?! Is that too much to ask?
I have already downloaded and upgraded to ML once already, but cant find the DMG file anywhere?!
I don't want to download OSX Mountain Lion everytime I want to install it, that is just friggin ridiculous! not everyone has mega bandwidth flowing freely into their homes!!!!!! Surely it is possible to just download the DMG and burn to a DVD so I load it on each computer like with Lion!????
I thought the point of technology was to make life easier not harder! I shouldnt have to be resorting to a forum post just to figure out how to save a copy of the OS I have actually paid for.......Apples control freak attitude is out of control! Sorry for the rant im just over seeing these kind of crappy changes everytime Apple releases something new!
Thanks for this one, was a big help!
My frustration is just with the fact that Apple have become so arrogant as they have grown and have stopped considering their customers like they used too. When releasing new products they make changes like this that provide no benifit at all and they dont think about how it will affect their whole user base.
Bottom line is that I shouldnt have to resort to a forum and then follow a process to create a bootable disk for Mac OSX when I could do it with the last version with no problems......another example is the removal of the YouTube apps from iphone and ipad just because its owned by Google....its pathetic!
Anyway sorry to go on about it........for others looking for a solution to this problem, this link provides a good, simple process to allow you to create a boot disk for Mountain Lion.

I have intel mac 10.411, want to access iTunes, won't let me unless upgrade tp itunes 10, but it needs OSX 10.5. I just want to download some music, not upgrade my operating system. It's not THAT old. Ideas?
As long as you don't need all the bells and whistles of the iTunes Store such as Ping, and don't need to sync an iOS device running iOS 4.x, then iTunes 9.2.1 should work for you. It should be available via Software Update, but if not, you can still get it here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056
but it would be best to upgrade your Mac to Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6, since it's probable that eventually the iTunes Store will no longer support iTunes 9.x.
Regards.
P.S. Mac OS X 10.4 was discontinued three and a half years ago, so yes, it's getting rather long in the tooth. Cheers. -
i have an iphone and have just bought an ipad, the apps i have paid for on my iphone will they be free to download or sync to my ipad?
One thing you may notice when you do install them on the iPad, is they are not optimized for the higher resolution screen on the iPad versus the iPhone. You can still use them, but you may want to search the app store and see if there is a HD or iPad optimized version (although you may have to buy that as most such apps are not free upgrades, but separate purchases).

i purchased a app and paid for it Djay the original now i want to put it on my ipad from my phone purchase and it only gives me djay 2 to buy in the app store i dont want djay 2 i want the one i have paid for Djay 1. cant find it anywhere on the store
Developers control which versions of their app is in the store. If a developer releases a new version and pulls the old version then it will no longer be available in the store.
If you sync the device that has the older app in ITunes on your computer and choose to transfer purchases, you will then have your own saved copy of the app. Then, sync the other device and select to install that app from the list of locally saved purchases. -
After I purchased , downloaded it and installed it , my Ipod Touch 1st gen restarted and show connect to Itune but Itune does not recognize it, I restarted the PC, the Ipod, now I paid for something that I was thinking will be easy and make my life easy
See if placing the iPod in DFU mode will allow a restore.

I need a refund of $8 bucks the Merry Axemas album cost because I just wanted one song that wouldn't download OR
just the one song in it's ENTIRETY instead of just half of it.
The beauty here is I only wanted one song but iTunes would NOT allow download of just one song making the user - ME- attempt to download the whole album which of course was short the ONLY song I desired downloaded.
Would you please remedy this situation pronto?Please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. The people who will reply to your posts are, like me, in almost all cases your fellow users.
If the track you wanted was only available when purchasing the entire album, as I see most on that album are, then that was how the content owner insisted it be done and there's nothing Apple can do about it. If you then chose to purchase the entire album, that was your choice. It's unlikely that Apple will now refund your money on that basis.
As to a defective track, delete the problem track(s) from the iTunes library, allowing iTunes to move the track file(s) to the Trash. Then download the track(s) again from the iTunes Store via this procedure:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
That fixes the problem for many people. If problems with the tracks persist, go here:
iTunes Support
and follow the instructions to report the issue to the iTunes Store.

I just want to download Firefox! Where is the stupid download button?
I've tried every link on the website and nothing looks like the picture that shows the "Free download" button. I'm not an idiot and I'm more than the average computer savvy person but I swear someone has hidden the dumb thing.
You can download Firefox via these web pages:
* Firefox 4.0: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html -
The only other thing I can describe is the screen shot claiming that my system was infected. I don't believe it and the file it wanted me to permit was not a mozilla address and not a .com or .net.
It will be a fake, there are many of them out there. For a description of one of the variants of this type of malware see http://www.2-viruses.com/remove-anti-virus-2011
If you believe you may have been infected, try running several malware scanners. It is best to run several as each will pick up things that the others miss. Some scanners you can try are:
* Malwarebytes - http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
* SuperAntiSpyware - http://www.superantispyware.com
* Ad-Aware - http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php

I just want to download the apple tv software on to my pc...however I cant seem to find this anywhere and my laptop doesn't reconsie the apple tv device!!
You can't download it to your PC. The only way is to connect Apple TV to your computer and restore via iTunes (which will load the current firmware).
Make sure you are following the steps exactly (unplug all cables, then connect micro usb cable)
Make sure you are connecting directly to computer, not a keyboard port or USB hub
Try a different cable
Also may want to check any firewall and security software installed on the system. -
