Lion in App Store problem

Hi!
I'm coming because I want to do a fresh intall of Lion. I have a Mac Mini mid-2011 and came with Lion instaled. Yes, I know, ML is coming, but right now I will going to wait to maybe 10,8,2.
Fine, the problem is, trying to download Lion, in the App Store the app say the price, not installed like the iLife bundle. I don't know how to download. I want to burn in a DVD or usb, because in my country the internet is not so stable (and the electrical service too , so I can't leave this in recovery).
What can I do? How I can download Lion from my Mac with Lion pre-installed? I need help
Regards,
Abel

You don't need to re download Lion to do a fresh install.
In order to reformat your Mac since it's already running v10.7 Lion, you need to use  Lion Recovery
Unfortunately, Lion Recovery requires broadband access to the Internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection.
If, you can re download Lion from the App Store, you could create an installation disc.
Instructions here > How to create an OS X Lion installation disc | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • Trouble with downloading os x mountain lion from app store

    Hi! I purchased the new os x mountain lion from app store but I have trouble with downloading it. Its starts the download but constantly stops after few mbs and says an error has occured, check you internet connection. My internet connection is fine, everything else works even downloading other apps. Has anyone an idea how to fix the problem?

    Firewalls and anti-virus software can interfer with iTunes/Mac App Store downloads.

  • Puchased mountain lion from app store and tried downloading via store 4 times, always rcvg an alert stating "error downloading"

    puchased mountain lion from app store and tried downloading via store 4 times, always rcvg an alert stating "error downloading"
    Is there any other mean to get the mountain lion.
    I ve a 512kbps connection.

    I believe you have correctly identified your 512kbps connection as the source of the problem.
    The Mountain Lion download is more than 4 gigabytes.  You should try hard to find a much better, faster, more robust connection.

  • Can't download 10.8 mountain lion from app store

    Hi,
    I own a 2008 mac pro. The system drive was still running an original install of osx (upgraded to the latest version of 10.8). It had become pretty slow, so I bought a new ssd for a fresh install of the os.
    I own 10.6 on dvd, which I have used previously on another computer to acomplish the exact same thing I'm trying to do here; install 10.6 on a new drive, then upgrade to 10.8 (the only way I know how to do this).
    So I did the usual - new drive in, old drive out, install 10.6, update 10.6 until the "app store" becomes available. So I'm now running 10.6.8. I open the app store, log in, go to "my purchases" and see osx mountain lion sitting in the list. It says I purchased it on the 12th of November, 2012, which is correct. If I click on "osx mountain lion", the app store informs me that "Item not available. The item you've requested is not currently available in the UK store". I bought the "item". I paid good money Apple. Why can't I download this? If I click "download" a little spinny thing appears for a couple of seconds next to the back/forward arrows, then disappears.
    10.9 is unsupported with the software I use - everyone's reporting faults, so I need 10.8. Can someone help? Obviously I can just put the old drive back in, but this NEEDS to be available somehow...?
    Thanks

    That's good to hear.
    After some mucking about I managed to get it downloading on another computer (which is already running 10.8). Hopefully I should be able to copy it over and install.
    But I will let Apple know - potentially pretty disasterous for people.
    Thanks.

  • I am trying to purchase os x lion from app store. Getting a response saying I need 2GB memory available but I have at least 40GB free space??

    I am trying to purchase os x lion from app store. Getting a response saying I need 2GB memory available but I have at least 40GB free space??

    Memory = Ram, the 40G free space you are referring to is hard drive storage space available, 2 very different things.
    In order to run Lion you MUST have at least a Core 2 Duo processor and 2G of Ram, to find out whether you qualify (and it seems as though you don't) go to
    Apple>About this Mac: you will be able to see the processor type and Ram installed thus
    If you have less than 2G of Ram you can install more, if however you have a Core Duo (instead of Core 2 Duo) you can not run Lion.

    Hello, how are you? On September 13 I bought an iPad and in October bought a game on the app store problem is that when informed the card number dropped normally, but then went on to ask for a new form of payment because one had given any errors, and so not lowered any other game and not upgraded the already downloaded. I do not know what exactly I have to do, because if informed a new payment method continues with the same problem, checked the card bill and really had given an error, because there was no billed the game. I ask you to verify what happened and explain to me what I need to do, because my single card is Visa's and do not intend to return others to use the services of the App Store.
    Thank you for understanding.

    Try opening the Terminal utility in your system and running the following command to open the system's caches folder:
    open $TMPDIR../C
    Then locate and remove the folder called "com.apple.appstore" and then try relaunching the App Store and downloading the installer again.

    Check these threads out:

  • Mountain Lion from Apps Store won't download?

    Purchased Mountain Lion from Apps Store - but it will not havedoIwnload. The Icon just appears and it says " waiting " for an hour or so and does nothing?

    Yes as long as these are both your computers. Transfer target disk mode, USB flash drive, external HD, DVD, Dropbox, etc
    Are the computer close by and portable or at a distance??  This might dictate how you move your download.
