Is Lion going to be offered on a disk similar to the previous operating systems where you can get a family pack? of like 5 instals?

You don't even need the family pack anymore! Just use the same Apple ID to connect to the App Store on each computer and upgrade... pay for it once and you can use it multiple times. According to the Lion page on www.apple.com, this is intended, and...
According to the App Store OS X Lion 10.7 License Agreement Section 2 Paragraph B:
B. License from Mac App Store. If you obtained a license for the Apple Software from the Mac App Store, then subject to the terms and conditions of this License and as permitted by the Mac App Store Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms and Conditions (http://apple.com/legal/itunes/ww/) ("Usage Rules"), you are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license:
( i ) to download, install, use and run for personal non-commercial use one (1) copy of the Apple Softward directly on EACH Apple-branded computer running Mac OS X Snow Leopard or OS X Snow Leopard Server ("Mac Computer") that you own or control;
et al.
This means that you can buy OS X Lion with your Apple ID, and any Mac you own (or have control over) that is legally defined by the license agreement can be connected by the same Apple ID and upgraded.
Cheers.

Is there an equivalent in Lion to the PC configuration system where you can choose which programs are startups , delayed or manual

Help, I want to be able to choose which programs I wan tot run at start up because after 6 months of usage it takes about 2plus minutes for a cold system to start up and 5 seconds to shut down. I wan tot speed up the startup and I think I have to many programs runnning at startup. On my PC I used to control that from sys config,is there an equivalent in Lion.

Go to System Preferences/System/Users & Groups. Click on Login Items and add or delete the apps as you choose.

Can I get rid of Lion and go back to the previous operating system? I bought Apple because it was simple. I went from loving my Mac to absolutely hating it.

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my email. I can't seem to purchase this on-line

The apple store is so unhelpful. I have an iMac computer operating on Mac OSX 10.5.8. I want to upgrade to the latest Mountain Lion operating system so I can work with the iCloud on my computer and download my emails. I can't seem to purchase this on-line as it keeps telling me to go to the app store. I haven't got the app store on my computer as I am told I need iCloud for which I need the new operating system, which I can't download or purchase as I am sent back to an instruction telling mee to go to the app store icon.
How difficult can it be to simply purchase the software on-line have it shipped to you so you can install it, in the event it cannot be downloaded as it appears it can't be based on my curent operating systems being Mac OSX 10.5.8.

Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from download, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.

I have a MacBook Pro and it is Software is Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53). Is this the new operating system or I have to buy the new one? The only thing missing is the Messages.

And yes, you need LOTS of Internet to get the latest cat. The installer file is just 4.5GB in size, so on most internet connections it will take awhile to download. Once that happens, you will have a choice to install it on top of your existing Lion partition, or onto a different one, that can even be a totally blank one.
Since you probably don't want to redo the wait, be sure to quit the installer as soon as it finishes downloading and starts up automatically. Then save the installer (called "Install OS X Mountain Lion", and found in your Applications folder) onto another disk before going thru with the installation. When it concludes, it will erase itself.

After i have upgraded to Lion OS, this computer has become the worst computer on this planet. Everything is so slow as if i am in 1990's, where you can click on something and take a coffee break. Constantly get errors on MS Outlook and all applications

After i have upgraded to Lion OS, this computer has become the **** computer on this planet. Everything is so slow as if i am in 1990 where you can click on something and take a coffee break. Constantly get errors on MS Outlook and all applications are taking for ever to open up. If you guys can't fix it i am going to throw this out the window. Completely fed up with this. Have always loved apple but this is the worst experience i have with the MacBook Air and its not even 1.5yr old.

There are two ways to upgrade to Lion - one is to install Lion overtop of the existing Snow Leopard and the other is to erase the hard drive, install Lion, and then migrate your applications and user accounts. This second option takes a good deal longer than the first so the preferred method for most is the first method and in most cases it works fine. But not in all.
captfred has told you what I'd start out doing if it were my computer. There's a good chance that you can identify an application or plug-in that's causing the problem. Upgrading the involved item(s) can solve the problem. Of all the Lion upgrades I performed I had a couple that weren't completely successful even though I'd looked for programs and plug-ins that needed upgrading first. I missed a few but I found them after the fact and had happy computers.
There was one computer that still had problems. With this computer I reinstalled Lion right over the old version. (If you didn't keep a copy you'll need to download it first.) I still wasn't satisfied so with that computer I rebooted into the recovery partition (Command R after restarting) formatted the hard drive, installed Lion and then migrated. That did solve the problem.

HT5622 My husband and I both have iPhones. We are currently using the same Apple ID. I have my own ID but when I send him a text message it comes back to me or goes to my computer. How do we separate the 2 ID's so we can send messages?

You need to reconfigure your phone for use with your Apple ID. I suggest you restore yours as new then reconfigure it with your information and Apple ID. Be sure to disable Find My Phone, if it's enabled, before proceeding.

I am selling my Mac Mini. I recently purchased OS X Lion. When I restore to factory settings, how can I ensure that the operating system will still be Lion, and not the original operating system, which I believe was Snow Leopard?

If you bought Lion from the App Store, you can't legally or practically transfer it, because it's tied to your Apple ID. Reinstall the original software from the discs that came with the machine.

I just bought a new iMac and am new to the desktop Mac. I read you can get a free upgrade to Mountain Lion if you bought your computer after June 11,2012. Do I have to do something before Mountain Lion is released? If so what?

Idvd is not included with lion, apple says is discontinued , where i can get it?

idvd is not included with i life11 installed with new i mac tha comen with Lion, apple says is discontinued , where i can get it?

Make a couple of phone calls.
iDVD is a “Must Have".   (Yes, it should be included.)
Call Apple, they sometimes sent out iDVD at no charge.
800-692-7753
800-275-2273
If you are still within your 15 day return period, nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick.
Most people report that by asking here:   http://www.apple.com/feedback/idvd.html
or here:   http://www.apple.com/contact/
they got a free copy of iDVD.
If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11 (includes iDVD) on disk (don't get the download) for about $39.

I would like to ask about an offer regards to iPhone 5 where I can get an iPhone 5 if I bring back my old iPhone 4 200 US $ . Is that true ?

I would like to ask about an offer regards to iPhone 5 where I can get an iPhone 5 if I bring back my old iPhone 4 +200 US $ . Is that true ?

Since you don't provide any useful information, like who is making this offer, where, etc. we can't say.
My gut, though says that the answer is either: No.
Or.
You have misunderstood something, since in the US, you can get an iPhone 5 for $200 (or less) by signing a 2 year contract with one of the major carriers here. The price is subsidised by the carrier in exchange for contracting for service with them.

Is Lion going to be offered on a disk similar to the previous operating systems where you can get a family pack? of like 5 instals?
