Lion can't get update

I have Lion build 11A511 and it can't get update.
How to update my OS X 10.7 to 10.7.2? There no update in Software Update and in Mac App Store.

By reinstalling Snow Leopard or by logging onto your App Store account from another computer that has Snow Leopard instlled - 10.6.6 or later.
Make Your Own Lion Installer
1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
Open Disk Utility.
Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that you can use without having to re-download Lion.

After upgrading to Lion can't get Boot Camp to work! Just get "startup dusk cannot be portioned or restored to a single partition"?

After upgrading to Lion can't get Boot Camp to work! Just get "The startup disk cannot be partitioned or restored to a single partition". Anytone?

This message, and threads like yours got asked daily for over two years, now it is only a couple times a week!!
Is it so hard to follow through? you were to have backup already, clones are best, then erase/format and restore.
Then partition.
Some have been able to use Disk Utility booted from OS X DVD or another drive, and repair the drive.
You have to use Boot Camp Assistant (99.9% anyway) to create and achieve a proper Windows Master Boot Record partition.

App store demands credit card information now, so i can't get updates anymore, why is that?

I bought an iPad from Apple using my credit card, the App Store on my phone seems to have noticed the purchase and is demanding I give it my credit card info too so I can continue making easy purchases there too, problem is that I don't want to make purchases from App Store yet, but now I can't get updates for the apps that I am using. How can I get updates without giving up my credit card?

I haven't suggested you are dumb, indeed I only think people are dumb if they don't ask about things they don't understand.
I was asking why you changed your Apple ID to see if you really needed to, it sounds as though you may not have needed to.
You can change your personal email you use with your Apple ID, but you can't change your iCloud address. If you do this you can continue to use your old Apple ID and without causing problems with purchased content.

I am planning to buy apple air mac book. i am not that technical will i be able to handle apple mac book. i am aware of using windows os but can i get software like that of notepad, word pad in os X lion. can i get partitioning in macbook,

Yes. Switching to Mac might be overwhelming at first, but it is not difficult. I Just started using Macs regularly about 9 months ago after using only Windows based pc's for over 15 years. Macs come with TextEdit , but you can also purchase MS Office for Mac or use Apple's version, called iWork.Yes, you can partition the hard drive of a Mac. Read these also: http://www.apple.com/support/switch101/, http://www.apple.com/support/mac101/. With regular use of a Mac, you will be able to use it without even thinking about it, just like how you learned to use a WIndows pc.

How can I get updates on my iPad?

My initial iPad account was on an a computer and an email I no longer have, plus I've forgotten that password. I've created a new iTunes account, (new computer, new email, etc.) but can not update my iPad, as it uses the old Apple ID.
How can I get updates on my iPad?

Thanks - I tried to with my new Apple ID - as I had to update the software, although it warned me I'd lose content on my iPad. But I did the update, it took 30 minutes, but then did not work, as my iPad still has the older version of the software. What went wrong there?

HT1311 How can I get updates for apps with new Apple ID

How can I get updates for apps with new Apple ID. I have apps that I got for free, and some that I have purchased. I had to create a new Apple ID because I don't have a credit card now.

Apps will always be tied to the ID in which they were purchased or downloaded under. You can not change this unless you buy or download the free app using the new ID.

How come my Iphone 4 keeps saying not enough storage to take any more pictures and can't get updates yet I keep deleting apps and photos off my phone and my itunes on my computer and yet I feel like I don't have many apps or that many photos?

Can't get updates from Mac App Store

I changed my password. Now, I can't get updates to apps bought using the old PW. Error msg: "Download using your other account." What "other" account? Change back to the old PW and download the upgrades, then go back to the new PW?

After I reset my password, Mac App Store told me to sign in to my account and verify that I had a valid method of payment set up. Naturally, I do have such a method. But Done does't work because I have to verify an account that, according to MY Account, is already verified. But, what the hey? Apple has my back against the wall. I re-verify it. Apple says, "Account verified. Return to App Store."
Nothing has changed. I verify my MOP again. I get the same good news.
Nothing has changed. I give up for the night..
Today, I open up Mail. Two messages from Apple. Each says that my account has been de-authorized. That is, each time that I "verified" my MOP, I was, somehow, actually DE-verifying it!
So, I set up a new MOP with no apparent probs, except that,
MOP?!!! What MOP?! !'ve ALREADY PAID! What does it matter whether I have an MOP, if I'm not BUYING anything?!!! But, what are you going to do?
All right. I've now completely redone everything, including deleting App Store with Amnesia and doing a whole 'nother install.
I try to download an update.
You have updates available for other accounts.
To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.
I have a single account. I've never had any other. I have fifteen (15!) apps waiting to be updated.
As far as I can tell, the trouble started after I put in a new password - before I knew that I was going to have a problem - after having used the old one from the opening of the MAS. Everything that had an update from after that date is updated. The fifteen non-updatables are from before the password change.
Thank you for trying.

My Cloud applications manager quit and I can"t get updates.

My Cloud applications manager quit and I can't get updates. Windows explorer keeps shutting it down. How do I remedy the situation.

Hi S1Nov,
I would try
- Restart the computer
- Try getting the updates with all applications closed except the Adobe Application Manager
- If issue persists try closing applications in the system tray by right clicking on their icons and choosing Close or Quit and then applying the updates again.

or the family pack of 5 licenses
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC574Z/A
Buy it quick, as many feel that when Mountain Lion comes out SL disks will go to the secondary market at more than $29 for single or $49 for family-pack
Make a good backup first, preferably a clone, as you may need it if the upgrade does fail.

My hard drive died, it was replaced, now I don't have lion - can I get it back?

I got my Macbook Pro LAST July (2011), and because of the timeframe I got it in, I was able to enter a code and get LION for FREE!
I loved the hand gestures, but my hard drive died, and I got it completely replaced.... it seems like it went back to snow leopard... it says 10.6.7
how can I get lion back without paying for it like before? Is there a way?

Apple standard protocol is to replace the original OS that shipped on your Mac when it was new.
It might be wise to upgrade that 10.6.7 to the 10.6.8 before you install Lion.
10.6.8 Combo http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Maybe others can verify this wisdom.
and most importantly this supplemental:
(Note: there's a separate Snow Leopard 10.6.8 Supplemental Update:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1429 that is not included in the 10.6.8 "combo".)

How can I get updated software for my old ipod?

I have contacted ITUNES first. I have several songs I recently purchased and show downloaded. But they willnot sync to the IPOD. Therefore ITUNES can no longer help and has suggested that I need a software update. How can I get my IPOD updated with new software? I tried going into settings>general> but there is no option to select for software updates.

You probably don't update.
A 2nd gen can only go to 4.2.1
3rd to 5.1.1
4th to 6.1.3
5th to 7.0.2
Was it telling you to update itunes?

Can't get updates on Mac OSX 10.5.8

I have a Mac version 10.5.8. A year and a half ago I stopped getting software updates. How can I start getting them again? Whenever I do the check, the updater tells me there are no updates. I know there must be. How can I get around this? I think it has something to do with Firefox no longer being "safe." I just switched to Safari, but still no updates. Help. I can't get latest versions of Java that I need for some banking needs.

No further Apple updates are being made for Mac OS X 10.5.8; few third-party updates are compatible with it either. The next step is to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store.
