Is there any way to re install Mac OS X 10.7.0

The 10.7.5 update has killed my computer and while trying to get to my time machine backup (which stopped working after the update), I saved files which made my backups disappear.
The only solution is to start over with 10.7, but I cannot get a copy anywhere.  My original install in The App Store is 10.7.5.  I have spent more than 3 days on this and I really need to solve it.

That is an update and requires an earlier version of 10.7 to be on the machine; it is not a full installer and can't be used in this case.
@ the OP and Athip:
Unless you have a copy of a previous full installer, whether that be OS Snow Leopard (10.6.x) or Lion (saved a copy of the installer after the download and before the install) or you have a bootable clone or Time Machine backup of an earlier version, you can not go backwards. You can't do it because in order to do it you need to boot from another drive so you can erase your entire hard drive. That is the only way to do it.

    If you previously had iWork '09, those apps are still in your Applications folder in a folder named iWork '09 unless you deliberately deleted them.
    If you did delete them & have a Time Machine backup that includes your Applications folder you can restore them from there. In the past the iWork apps have not worked well when copied from another drive, but some users have reported that this works for them, especially if the apps were originally purchased from the Mac App Store. If you originally installed them from the retail disk, find the disk & reinstall them & then update to iWork 9.3.

    How can I contact Viber support? When I go to their website there's no such thing as 'email us' or 'contact us'.
    They may have a do-it-yourself troubleshoot system but that doesnt help my problem at all.

  • Is there any way to re-install an app on my iPad 2 without synching?

    I deleted and now want to re-install an app on my iPad 2. The App store tells me it's installed and I didn't see any way to re-install it from there.
    Is there any way to re-install just one little app without having to haul out the big ol' laptop and do a synch?  Can I do anything through the cloud?
    Many thanks for reading and apologies if this has been covered dozens of times....I couldn't see it when I did a search.

    Restting the iPad may reset the Newsstand app as well. One other thing that you can try is to quit Newsstand, restart the iPad and see if that helps.
    To quit Newsstand - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit the app by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on the Newsstand app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the app. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    BTW .... When you download an app again via the Purchased Tab from the App Store, you are downloading from the cloud. That is one of the features of iCloud. Your app purchases are stored "in the cloud" and downloaded from there. There is no need to sync with your computer.

  • Is there any way that to install and use firefox remotely on centos 6?

    Hello everyone
    i rent a dedicated server that using centos 6...I'm going to browse through the internet with that.can anyone tell me, is there any way that to install and use firefox remotely on centos?
    (just like utorrent server)
    tnx

    Install a proxy server on the centos machine and configure your local Firefox to connect through that proxy.
    If you really want to run Firefox on the centos machine, install a VNC server instead.
    (Obviously, use Google if you don't know what that means ;)

    It cannot be installed. It comes pre-installed on every iPhone 4S and later. Maybe it was disabled under Settings > General > Restrictions.

    iOS 6 only added support for the 3rd generation iPad. It was always on the iPhone 4S. Then the same goes for your boss: Maybe disabled in restrictions, or maybe actually an iPhone 4.

  • I have CS5 production, and the Sb program, has an analog delay effect. I deleted the default setting, and it disappeared. Is there any way to re-install it?

    I have CS5 production, and the Sb program, has an analog delay effect. I deleted the default setting, and it disappeared. Is there any way to re-install it?

    Hi Thanks a ton.. so I downloaded Sb from Cs5 download options
    and it won't take the serial number, from the box. I bought Cs5
    in 2010 in the box from adobe.  It lists Sb5 on the back
    of the box, and it's in line, and works fine.. paid about 1000 dollars
    for the software. But, the downloaded exe file will not accept the
    serial number. The same serial number in my account for Cs5
    production premium suite. I guess the new cloud community doesn't
    respond well to BOX installers or previous customers. Thanks a lot for
    your effort but, at 40$ a phone call, I'll suffer through without the default
    analog delay option.. everything else runs smooth so.. have a nice
    day up there in the cloud.
    Best Regards,

  • Is there any way to download my Mac Mail Contact list (Addressbook)from Snow Leopard to an iPad, or iPhone?

    I have an Intel iMac Model 8,1 Running Snow Leopard (10.6.8), and a 4th Gen iPad. Is there any way that I can import my Mac Addressbook from my iMac to the iPad so that I don't have to manually enter over 1,100 names and email addresses?
    My installed iTunes (v11.0.3) function for synchronizing the two units tells me that Contacts are sync'ed only via iCLoud, which, or course is only available with OS 7.0 and above. I cannot uppgrade my iMac above Snow Leopard without losing application compatibility on both a major contact database program, and an engineering drawing software program, with thousands of manhours and dollars worth of valuable files, that have been generated over many years past, neither software applications of which are supported by OS 10.7 and above.
    I cannot believe that Apple would be so blindsighted to this type of issue and there must be some work-around.

    Worked like a charm and resolved my problem totally. The only issue I had is that, unlike the Computer (Mac OS). the iPad doesn't give constant visibility to what it is doing (feedback), so I wasn't initially sure it had done anything.
    When I opened my emailed message with .vcf file attached, and tapped the .vcf attachment icon, I saw activity on the icon for just a few seconds, then it reverted to the original with nothing apparently happening. After about 30 seconds, the secondary menut popped up indicating the transfer of 1200 addresses would be completed, if I approved the action. Another 10 to 15 seconds then transpired before the completed Contact list appeared on the ipad. So you must be patient, if you have a large Addressbook. That's reasonable,but unexpected lack of feedback left me wondering, like so many other things on the iPad.
    THank you for the assist. Apparently Apples Mac Genius people did not know this procedure, and I will pass it on to my local Apple Store Instructor.

  • Is there any way to share my Mac's internet connection with my iPod as I can't turn on the wifi on my iPod?!

    How did you try to contact them? In any case, an Apple Store is the best way to handle any problems with an iPhone when you have a store in your area. The Apple Store will certainly be able to handle the problem one way or another. Most likely they'll just replace the iPhone, though if you're out of warranty the replacement will not be free.

  • Is there any way to make a Mac identify as a Windows machine on a local network?

    I work for a municipal government organization. Occasionally, I am blocked by the network spam/firewall software (Barracuda) from accessing websites from my Mac, but NOT blocked from them if I go from a Windows machine -- even if it's a Windows VM running on the Mac! The reason given is usually because the sites are identified as "shopping".)
    My suspicion is that, since AFAIK I am on the only Mac on the city's network that is NOT in one of the school department's computer labs, that there is a setting on the server side that is set to assume that any Mac is a classroom machine and that the user is a minor. (***PLEASE NOTE*** Before anyone says anything, he sites in question tend to be free font or free graphics sites and ARE actually work-related, since I have no budget for fonts or stock photos... Keep it clean, you! <gr>)
    I know that there are ways to spoof a browser, say, on the web, but is there any way to do this directly on a local network? More to the point, if it IS possible, is there a way for ME to do it from my end rather than putting in a request to the MIS **** Desk to do something at THEIR end?

  • Is there any way to re-install the original iOS 8 English keyboard?

    I stupidly deleted the original iOS 8 keyboard on my iPhone 5 when I was trying to get a third party keyboard to work.  I restored the phone to the factory default and then restored my most recent backup, hoping the keyboard would not be deleted during the process, but it was.  Is there any way to download or re-install the original keyboard?

  • Is there any way to I install .sis or .sis x appl...

    Greetings, I don't know if this is the right place to post it here but please do guide me , I just purchased nokia 6260 slide. It supports only .jar applications. I updated the software to V 07.20. The applications i want to install is available only in .sis and .sis x.  Can I change my Nokia 6260 slide OS to Symbian? Or is there any way to install .sis/. sis x applications? And there is an offer of 90 days free navigation licence, how can i activate that?

    I'm afraid there's no way to change the S40 (Series 40) OS to S60. In other words, if you need/want to run S60/Symbian apps, then you need to switch to an S60/Symbian based phone, instead.
