If I have multiple Apple products, do I need to purchase Lion seperately for both, or is there still a 'Family Pack' available?

I've got both a MacBook Pro and an iMac, and I wanted to upgrade to Lion, but does that mean that I need to buy it for both, or is there a 'Family Pack' somewhere that I can't find?
Thanks

The Mac App Store license allows you to install software purchased from the Mac App Store onto as many Macs as you own/control.
When you download it on the first Mac, you might want to burn the installer to a DVD or onto an external hard drive as it is erased after the installation is completed. That will allow you to install on the other Mac without downloading again.  Even with a fast connection, that will save you some time.
Make sure you backup, first.

  • I have NO apple products but I need to view a shared iCloud calender from another user. How can I do this? He does not want it public.

    Basically the subject says it all. I do not have any apple products. I do have an apple ID but apple wont let me set up an icloud account without any apple products. I was invited to view a shared calender by an Apple user that I NEED to be able to view. It is a private, invite-only calender. Apparently apple wont let me view this shared calender without an iCloud account (even though I still have an apple ID regular account). I cannot set up an iCloud account without a Mac or an iOS products, which I do not own. This is ridiculous but there has to be a work around. Any suggestions?

    I would love to setup an iCloud ID. Trust me, I would love nothing more. Apple wont let me without an Apple device.

  • I have a macbook and iMac will Ineed to purchase Lion twice for these computers?

    I have both a macbook and iMac. Will Ineed to purchase Lion twice for these computers?

    I actually just found out another kewel thing. If you bought a mac and get the free upgrade, it lets you install it on all your macs!!!!!
    Come to think of it, if FORCES you to install it on all your macs! You can't buy it again on the App Store.

  • I want to update both my desktop iMac and my Macbook, do I have to purchase Lion twice for both?

    How can I update both my desktop and laptop macs to OS X Lion for cheap?

    No, you only pay once, but both Macs must be running 10.6.8. Buy, download and install using the App Store on the first Mac.
    On the second Mac, log into the App Store using the same AppleID, and go to the Purchased tab. You should see Lion. Download again and install from there.

    After calling AT&T tech support one more time, and explaining to them that the glitch was on their network, they admitted that the problem was at their tower...
    I continued to use the phone on EDGE mode for two more days until the problem was fixed.
    I even got a call back from a tech support guy asking me if my phone was working properly....
    I wish they would have admitted to the problem before I sat at the apple store for 2 hours.

  • I already have an iTunes account but need to open a new one as I have many apple products but am limited to how many I can use my iTunes account on. How do I open a new one please. Thanks

    Hi I already have an itunes account registered to my address and email address.
    The problem is, I have many apple products but i'm limited to how many products I can use one itunes account for.
    How do I open a new itunes account for the same address please.
    Thanks for your help.

    Well, you can probably do it, but then you also have to buy the products again to use them from the other account since they cannot be transferred or shared between accounts.  So if you have 7 computers and want the same movie authorized on all of them, you'll have to buy the movie twice and then authorize some devices on one account and others on the other.
    Do you really have >5 devices, or is it just that you have a lot of devices authorized that no longer exist but are tying up authorization slots?  If that's the case, you can deauthorize things.

    I have no idea how to do multiple accounts but you may need to create a new e-mail address (plenty of free ones out there).

    I had the sam problem this weekend and I contacted my bank and Apple.  My bank's response was professional and positive, but Apple's response was very very shoddy.  I had to weave through automated menus and referrals to multiple apple web sites.  This treatment continued for two days until I was finally forwarded to Maria.  She took this seriously and helped as best she could. 
    Unfortunately I think Apple is taking a very cavalier approah to a potentially serious security breach.  After loyally purchasing 3 I-Phone 4s, 3 I-Pod touches, 2 I-pods, 1 Nano, 3 Apple TVs, 2 macbook pros, 1 mac, and  Ipad over the last 5 years apple is on the verge of losing my business.

  • It seems I have multiple Apple IDs.

    It seems I have somehow gotten multiple Apple IDs. and I only have one Apple product. one is the original ID that is attached to an old email address. Well that acct keeps shutting down my icloud email. and I can't get back to it because the email acct is no longer active. How do I get back to one ID? all I can find is how to reset the password and that won't work because I can't access the old acct.
    thanks Barney

  • HT204053 can you have multiple apple id's for the family but we all use the same iCloud?

    Can you have multiple apple id's for the family members but we all us the same iCloud account?

    You'll have to have an ID you all share in order to have a shared iCloud account. It would be sensible for each person to have their own ID and their own iCloud account for email and their own data (each would be on their own computer/iOS device or user account on a Mac) and then have a common account which everyone would sign into in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars to access shared data.
    You don't want to be all using the email in a common account - if people are using email aliases remember these can't be detached from the account and transferred to another one. Having all your emails mixed up together can be somewhat impracticable.

  • How do you have multiple apple id's with one itunes

    how do you have multiple apple id's with one itunes

    I have multiple IDs and use the single computer sharing itunes. By 'sharing' I mean we open the pc, open itunes and log in with our individual ID as required.
    While Im logged in I plug in  my device. I transfer my purchases from my device as per the file menu (not the check for auto downloads). I move them as required to whichever playlist I like.
    Then when my son wants to use itunes or update his device, he logs in, plugs in his device, transfers purchases from his device, puts whatever music he wants into his playlist and/or drags direct to the device regardless of who purchased it and then syncs.
    Im not sure how it works associating the pc with only one ID or all that other business- I know I don't fiddle with any of that.

  • How can I view my pictures that were backed up to iTunes? I no longer have an apple product but need to view the pictures for very important reasons.

    How can I view my pictures that were backed up to iTunes? I no longer have an apple product but need to view the pictures for very important reasons.

    If you mean backed up as part of an iPhone backup in iTunes?  If so, you would have to use 3rd party software to extract them from the backup, such as iPhone Backup Extractor.

  • I have multiple Apple IDs, can I delete one and/or merge my accounts?

    I unintentionally have multiple Apple IDs. I just switched to an iPhone and the store employee created what is now my 3rd apple Id. Is there a way I can I delete the extra accounts so that I can have my email addresses all in one place? Or is there a way to merge my accounts?

    1. No. Only Apple itself can delete Apple IDs; if desired, click here and contact them.
    2. No.
