I just bought a new MacBook Air with Lion. How can I install Lion on my MacPro?

If the way I get Lion is only pre-installed on the new computer, I'm wondering how I would go about installing it on another Mac that I already own. Thanks!

Apple may have used the App store version of Lion as a temporary distribution channel for its brief free upgrade program in July, but Apple has never in the past continuously licensed the OS that comes with a new computer for use also on additional computers. The situation with Lion is therefore nothing new. The App store product is equivalent to the old "retail DVD" that you could buy for previous OS versions - they are both meant for older computers that shipped with earlier OS versions, and neither is free. The difference in the case of Lion is that you are getting something similar to the old "family-pack" retail DVD at no extra cost.
Details are in the Lion OS X 7.2 license agreement, available here.
http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/docs/macosx1072.pdf
It includes the following, which makes clear that the new-product license and the App store license are different entities:

For example, these standard single-copy license terms apply to you if you obtained the Apple Software preinstalled on Apple-branded hardware.

Boot from your Mac OS X installer DVD. After selecting a language, choose "Disk Utility" from the menu bar.
When Disk Utility launches, use the "Zero Out Data" option under the Erase tab. Erase the entire disk, not only the free space.
One pass of zeros is secure enough for normal use. One pass will take a couple of hours, so plan some time.

Repair the Hard Drive - Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. 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.
Clone Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion using Restore Option of Disk Utility
     1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu then press the Continue
         button.
     2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
     3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
     4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it
         to the Destination entry field.
     5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
         the Source entry field.
     6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the internal drive. Source means the external startup drive.

I just bought iWorks Serial Number Key over the internet. When I use the key, iWorks tells me the key is invalid!! Please help. (I bought this iWorks from someone in Singapore. I am using it in Malaysia)

I just bought iWorks Serial Number Key over the internet. When I use the key, iWorks keep telling me the key is invalid!! Please help. (I bought this iWorks from someone in Singapore. I am using it in Malaysia.). Thanks

Downloaded the Trial version. It still says the serial number key is invalid. On the iWork page where I am suppose to enter the serial number key, the "Go Back" button is always BOLD, but the "Continue" button remains GREY all the time. The "Continue" button remains grey even after I have completed the key entry. I have to type the "Return" key on my keyboard to force enter the key. The message I get is still "Invalid key".
I have called Apple. The first person helped by asking me to delete certain items in some Folders and it still did not work. I was then connected to a senior person, but I heard over the recording that there were 15 persons waiting on the line. I had to end the call because the wait will take too long.

IMac 4,1 with recent upgrade from Tiger to Snow Leopard....problem after problem after problem...PLEASE HELP!

Hi,
I purchased our iMac 4 with Tiger OS X some time ago (2007) and until recently had absolutely no problems....and then, we met the Snow Leopard. I added the 2GB of memory without a hitch. Backed -up what needed to be backed up to an external hard drive, check. When I tried to install the Snow Leopard disc, it would only install partially or not at all and after almost 16 hours of trying to figure out where I went wrong, I took it to the Apple Store. They said our "antique" slot disc was malfunctioning (only playing CDs because of the different laser calibrations) and they performed a clean installation of Snow Leopard by external USB drive. Ever since we got the computer home it has been a NIGHTMARE! The computer freezes constantly. It runs much slower than before we performed the upgrade (even with an out dated Tiger!!), sometimes it doesn't even boot completely, leaving only the white screen and I'm going crazy! Finally, I get on to Safari without it freezing 15 minutes after loading (angles singing) and tried to purchase a software that will copy my iPod to the new iTunes. An error popped up politely stating that I had made a "BAD REQUEST - Your browser sent a request that this user could not understand. Reason: Your speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port. Instead, use the HTTPs scheme to access this URL, please." Since he asked nicely, I clicked on the supporting link for more information. Now there is another error message "Your copy of Safari is missing important software resources. Please reinstall Safari". I have gotten this message twice before.
I know I can always take it back to the Apple Store, however, if I can try to diagnose the problem myself and save the strain of throwing it through the Apple Store's window causing a frustration inspired ruckus, I'd consider it a good day. Does anyone have the slightest idea what might have gone wrong? And is it really worth the aggravation (or apprehension hehe!)? Should I throw in the towel and purchase another one?
Any help or input would be graciously appreciated!!

Sorry for your pain! I would say since you have an open case with the Apple Store (they did something you say had a worse effect than before) you have a right to go back and continue, I would think. We could try to sort it out but it sounds like it could be fairly complicated. Four years old isn't that terrible, but it's not surprising to hear of CD drive problems. I think it is worth another trip back. Then you'll know better if it's time to buy new. And a refurb is cheaper than one of those plate glass windows!

I purchased creative suite about 3 years ago for my macbook pro and have just bought an iMac and was wondering if and how to install creative suite onto my computer?

I am aware that I could not use both devices at the same time and from what I've read on here, once you've bought creative suite you may install it onto two devices. I'm just wondering how I go about installing onto my iMac, also with consideration that it is a older version of Creative Suite.

Problems setting up my TC. Have just bought new iMac(OS 10.6.8) and TC. I tried to set it up. iMac cannot find it. I have tried direct connection with an ethernet cable to Mac or direct to my wireless router but nothing. Just a flashing orange light. Help for a simpleton please. Have tried reseting TC, but to no avail.

Just updated from 10.6.7 ---> 10.6.8 and had the same issue. Despite having done a clean install from 10.6 and got everything back off my TC, now Time Machine can't find it!
Green light is on, ethernet cable conected, network CP says its conected but nothing. Airport Utility can't find it. Hit reset button, Orange flashing light but still no show in Airport Utility.
But I know its there, as rebooting from 10.6 SL disk shows the backups are still ok?
Hmm, ideas anyone?

HT2589 I just bought an Imac. I have an ipad2 and an iphone 4s. My wife has an iphone 4s. Both of us have different apple ids. Would you recommend a new one or use an existing id? Why?

It is best to stop making all new apple IDs, as software is permanently tied to them, and you can't converge them. Make differnt ones if you plan to get divorced though....

Just bought an Imac G5 but can't do much with it, how can I upgrade to neewer version and which is the next version after 10.4.11?

HI, I just bought an Imac G5 with 10.4.11 OS in it but I can't do much with it. I can't even wach Netflix on it because it needs a newer version of browser but I can't download newer version because My Mac's OS is to old, at least 10.6 needed. Can anybody can help Me? Thank you

No, sorry. It was only ever available on Disc. You can search places like eBay or Amazon for a Retail Copy. Do not get the Grey Set as they are machine specific. I don't think 10.5 will let you do much more than 10.4 as you said you needed at least 10.6 which is not possible due to the age of your Mac.
Cheers

Just bought an iMac. Since there is no DVD with the OS in the box, what am I supposed to do if I have a problem? Do I have to pay to pay to get a copy of Mountain Lion? It's not that pricey but still when you pay such a price shouldn't it be included?

Do I have to pay to get a copy of Mountain Lion? I know it's not that pricey but still when you pay such a price shouldn't it be included? Considering the fact that people who bought a computer a few months ago without Mountain Lion can download it for free, I think I should have the right to get a free copy too, no?

If you have a problem and need to reinstall, you don't have to pay.

hi i just bought a iMac 24'' and i can't seem to load the cd drive it doesnt do anything!! can anyone help?
thanks

The last 24" was a 2009 model and they started in 2006, so which one is yours?
Here is a list of all 24" models:

All of them had a built in Superdrive. It could be dirt (easy fix) or a malfunctioning mechanism (happened on mine) - in that case, it would have to be replaced and you may be better off getting an external drive (less expensive).
And, you said it has 10.8.5 installed? Did the seller give you the original install DVDs? You will need those sooner or later.

I´ve just bought a IMAC Intel COrei5 with LION preinstaled. How can reset it to its original setings? without DISKS because all software is preinstalled? please help
