I need to download OS X Lion 10.7

Please advise, I am needing to download OS X Lion 10.7.   I have failed to update one of my computers operating system, and now I am unable to download iCloud without downloading OS X Lion 10.7.

  • I need to download the purchased lion software how do I do that?

    I believe you are emailed a redemption code to download it using the App Store. See

  • Can someone pls help me with java on my macbook pro because after i download the mountain lion java has died and i need java to see streaming quotes from stock market

    can someone pls help me with java on my macbook pro because after i download the mountain lion java has died and i need java to see streaming quotes from stock market

    Java is no longer included in Mac OS X by default. If you want Java, you will have to install it.
    However, note that you should think twice before installing Java for such a trivial need as looking at stock market quotes. There are other ways to get that information that don't involve Java, and using Java in your web browser is a HUGE security risk right now. Java has been vulnerable to attack almost constantly for the last year, and has become a very popular, frequently used method for getting malware installed via "drive-by downloads." You really, truly don't want to be using it. See:
    Java is vulnerable… Again?!

  • I am trying to download OS X Lion from the app store and it says it can not complete my purchase becuase it needs at least 2GB of space and i have that

    i am trying to download OS X Lion from the app store and it says it can not complete my purchase becuase it needs at least 2GB of space and over 2GB on my computer...any ideas??

    That requirement is referring to the need for 2gB of RAM, not hard drive space.

    ps: sorry for my english :S

    You apparently are using a version of OS X you did not purchase using your Apple ID. Although you can download Mavericks you cannot install it over your current system. You must repartition your hard drive, then reinstall the version of OS X originally installed when it came new from the factory. That would be on the installer discs that should have come with the computer. If the computer did not come with discs from the factory but OS X was pre-installed (Lion or Mountain Lion) then you can perform an Internet Recovery:
    Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Do I need to download drivers for an HP 8600 all in one printer after upgrading to Mavericks from Mountain Lion?

    I am about to upgrade my Mac's OS from Mountain Lion to Mavericks.   I recently networked to my Mac on our home wireless network an HP 8600 all in one printer/scanner and an HP LaserPro 127.   I saw a note posted in a non-Apple forum stating that the Mavericks upgrade should include the drivers needed to run these products on Mavericks.   Is that correct or will I need to download a new set of drivers from HP after I upgrade to Mavericks?
    Any guidance would be appreciated.

  • Do I need to download lion to move onto mountain lion?

    I am downloading snow leopard right now, and I was wondering if I need to download lion before I download mountain lion? Can I just go straight to mountain lion?

    You don't need Lion 10.7 but do need to update to 10.6.8. If you're installing it from a retail DVD and not using a copy on your organization's LAN (if any), it'll be either 10.6 or 10.6.3.

  • I have updated to Lion OK. Do I need to download updates to Pages and Numbers as well?

    I have updated to Lion OK.   Do I need to download updates to Pages and Numbers as well?

    Only if they show up in Software Update.

  • HT3775 I am using OS X Mountain Lion and I have this .avi file but not able to read. What is missing in my setup and what other file do I need to download to enable me to read?  I can read mp4 files though.

    I am using OS X Mountain Lion and I have this .avi file but not able to read. What is missing in my setup and what other file do I need to download to enable me to read?  I can read mp4 files though.

    Here is a link: https://itunes.apple.com/en/app/mplayerx/id421131143?mt=12
    I agree that VLC is also a good choice but MPlayerX is more user friendly.

  • Mac curently runng 10.5.8.  Do I need to download 10.6 and then OS Lion or can I go directly to Lion?

    Mac currently running 10.5.8.  Want to install OS Lion.  Do I need to download 10.6 first or can I go directly to Lion?

    10.6.6 is the minimum as it is the first to include the App Store.
    You purchase and download Lion using the App Store.

  • Hve downloaded OS Mountain Lion but still  appears as a needing downloading in the apps purchases yet it is downloaded how do I get rid of it?

    I have downloaded OS Mountain Lion which was successful but going inot apps it still appears as requiring downloading but when I press to do this i am informed that download has been completed and so to cancel. How or why does this icon remain in the apps purchases and how should i get rid of it?

    It stays in your purchased apps list because you bought it from the MAS. The most likely reason it offers to be "downloaded" (it's not that it needs to be downloaded, it is that is can be downloaded) is because you installed the OS X upgrade, which deletes the installer from the HDD. This is normal behavior.

  • I am running Leopard OS X 10.5.8.  I want to upgrade to Lion.  Do I need to download Snow Leopard first?

    I am running Leopard OS X 10.5.8.  I want to upgrade to Lion.  Do I need to download Snoe Leopard first? 
    Thanks

    I cannot make that determination for you. Snow Leopard is not available as a download. You have to purchase it at an Apple Store or order it online. Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later is required to purchase and download Lion from the App Store. Total cost would be $59.00 exclusive of tax and shipping (if any.)
    Sometime this month Apple plans to make available a USB flash drive containing the full standalone Lion installe for $69.00. If you did not want Snow Leopard then you may want to wait for this to be available.

  • I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

    I can't watch YouTube videos on my brand new MacBook Pro with Lion. It says I need to download Adobe Flash Player but that won't install. Help!

    The same thing happens to me, Safari asks me to update the Adobe FlasPlayer, I download, start the installation process, ask me my username and password in order to install, then see a window where I choose if I want to always install the updates , or ask first, or not inslate updates, and at this point it is not progress, I can not cancel the process, I turn off and turn on my machine.
    What can I do ..??
    Regards.

  • A few days ago I bought my first IMAC. I needed to download Mountain Lion, and I would get it for free as it's a new IMAC. Apple sent me a 'content code' - several times - because every time I enter it, it says the code is wrong.

    Sorry to ask, but is it case sensitive?
