Mac OSX Lion only via the App Store

If Apple launches Mac OSX Lion only via the App Store (no CD), how do we have to install the Windows drivers on Bootcamp?

Apple has a way of course. Don't worry about it.
Beyond that we can't speculate.

  • I am running OXS Lion.  I cannot puchase OSX Lion Server without buying OSX Lion again in the App Store?

    I am currently using OSX Lion.  I went to the App Store to buy OSX Lion Server.  It informs me I have to buy OSX LIon as a package with the Server.  Why do I need to buy Lion twice to get the server?

    Have you bought Lion with the same account you're trying to install Lion Server?
    Normally you didn't have to pay Lion twice. You only have to had installed Lion with the newst update to load and install Lion server

  • I downloaded OSX Mountain Lion via the App Store but I can't download to my other mac

    I downloaded Mac OSX Mountain Lion via the App Store.  My understanding is that you can download it on up to 3 machines?
    I have downloaded it to one iMac and one MBP but have one more to do.  I've accessed the App Store with my admin logon on my last MBP to download it but can't seem to find it in my purchased history to do it.
    I can go into iTunes into my account and then purchase history where it's recorded, but there's nothing here about how to download it again?
    Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Log into the Mac App Store using the EXACT same Apple ID as before when you first purchased ML, and in your Account look under "Purchases", where you can download it again.
    Hope this helps

  • With Mountain Lion Developer release, and most likely the finished release having all updates via the App store, how does ARD fit into the picture?

    The following question is based on what I have seen in some early reports of the Developer version of Mountain Lion.
    Since the Developer Release of Mountain Lion, and the final version also I expect, having all updates being installed via the App Store by the user, how is a administrator to keep hundreds of systems current with all updates?  The App Store requires, at least in its current version, a user to log in with their Apple Account ID and password even to do no cost updates.  In an Enterprise operation I expect a number, maybe the majority of users will just not bother to do the updates.
    Is there some way to use ARD to handle keeping Mountain Lion systems fully updated from an ARD Admin system?  Is there a backdoor for updating systems?

    No one is going to be able to discuss how ARD might work with Mountain Lion since anyone running an ML system is under nondisclosure and cannot discuss it publicly. All anyone here can talk about is how ARD can (or cannot, as the case may be) be used to keep Lion systems updated.
    At this point I don't see any easy option in ARD to run Mac App Store updates, but it might be possible to script that, though whether that could run in background, as OS updates can, or on a system without a user logged in I don't know. Someone else here may be able to offer insight. For enterprise-level management I think most people have more-or-less given up on ARD as their primary tool, though, and moved to one of the third-party solutions.
    Regards.

  • Anyone else getting a timed out error message when trying to check for updates via the app store software on a desktop?

    Hi, couple of things to try...

    Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
    If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

    I was recently trying to upgrade to mountain lion through the app store.  I have unreliable Internet from a cable company whom I will not name, but we all know who they are.  My Internet dropped while downloading the upgrade.  Once I went through the notorious unplug the modem/router and plugged it back in to gain Internet connectivity again, I could not resume. No matter what I did, the app store kept displaying "an error occurred." I am hoping that those with the same issue read this first to save them hours of skimming through the Internet to find a solution.  Here are the steps to take:
    1. Make sure you have reestablished Internet connection
    2. Chances are you got frustrated when you tried to resume/unpause the download and clicked the "X" to the left.  If so, select the "Store" drop-down menu from the App Store and select "View My Account." There should be an option to unhide your purchase.  You know what to do.
    3. There is also an option to  reset all warnings for buying and downloading under "View My Account." Do this, click "Done," sign out of the App Store and quit the App Store.
    4. Open the Preferences in safari and select Privacy.  Select "Remove All Website Data."  Just do it.
    5. Launch the app store and sign in.
    6. Now, if you "Check for Unfinished Downloads" everything works peachy.
    I hope this helps.  Not much I can do for your Internet connection though.

  • Mountain Lion OS from the App Store

    I purchased mountain lion os from the app store for my laptop but also want to upgrade my imac from lion to mountain lion. When I went to the mountain lion app to purchase it again for my desktop it did not give me the option to buy only to download. I thought we would have to purchases two copies of the OS for each device, is that incorrect?

    The Terms of Use for Mac App Store software is that you may install it on as many Macs as you own or have in your control. That includes OS X.

    I tried the Aperature trial and liked it, but did not purchase it when the trial ended. A few weeks later, i purchased snow lepord and purchased aperture via the app store. I have had not been able to use it since. Each time i open it , afer a few seconds i get the spinning wheel of death and Aperture is frozen. I have to force quit Aperture to shot down mycomputer. I have re-installed Aperture 3 times with th e same result. I have iphoto on my computer as well is this causing the problem? I want my money back!!! Can anyone help?

    You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
    Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

    The upgrade I'm interested is for OS X  v.10.8.5...
    ...The App Store page shows 2 different upgrades:   
    Mountain Lion  (10.8.5)  Software Upgrade,  and
    Yosemite FREE upgrade
    If the App Store is showing 10.8.5 as an update, what do you currently have installed? The final update to Mountain Lion was 10.8.5, and since the basic OS installation of Mountain Lion is no longer offered in the App Store, that would suggest you're currently at an earlier version of Mountain Lion - 10.8.x where x=less than 5. If that's the case, I'd suggest getting the 10.8.5 update. There is also a Supplemental Update for 10.8.5 and that may be what the App Store is offering.

  • HT201064 Fresh Mavericks install, iPhoto installed from DVD - won't update via the App Store

    Hi all
    I did a fresh install of Mavericks, then installed a few apps from the App store.
    I then remembered iPhoto etc. that I have from the original install discs (2012 MBP)...but whilst iPhoto says an update is available (9.5.1), and launches the App store it won't show as an update via the App store.
    Anyone got any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Sadly you're mistaken. A 2012 MacBook Pro has no install DVDs. Apple stopped issuing install disks with new Macs soon after the permanent advent of the Mac App Store with OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Additionally, the version of the iLife apps; iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand that last came on install disks are not the Mac App Store (MAS) versions and are not compatible with being updated through the MAS.
    The apps from that old disk that you have from another Mac may be updatable however, using the Software Update facility in the Apple menu.

  • Unable to update any software via the App store.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

    FYI, I got a response from this department telling me the following:
    Please bear with me, Joel - being a part of the iTunes Store Customer Support, which answers nontechnical questions exclusively about billing, customer accounts, downloading purchases, and iTunes Store content, I am a bit limited on the depth of support I can provide on the tech side of things.
    She went on to say, "for this issue, you need to call our AppleCare technical support team."  Because my MacBook is a couple years old, I don't qualify for free AppleCare support.  So, I'm hoping the community might still be able to help me out here.

  • Can't download Lion. When I click on the Lion icon in the App store, nothing happens?

    Can't download Lion. When I click on the Lion icon in the App store, nothing happens?

    I hate the fact that I found this topic on Google, but after I had to log in to post this reply it took me somewhere else!  Again, a site designed by people who must never use their own software.  Any site that makes you log in to use a feature should not cast you adrift one you've logged in for the express purpose of using that very feature.  It makes me angry before I even start!  I am only here now because I have been run through the hoops trying to buy Lion and install it.  When I launched the app store, it had a lion's face I had to click on to download.  But there was no link to Buy or Download.  Eventually after many relaunches I accidentally discovered that if i clicked on £20 it changed into a green Buy - but only if you click directly on it, it you click on the down arrow it invites you to copy a link or to share it with somebody..  Then it made me log in again (what instant amnesia this site has) and I had to re-enter all my credit card info because it would not access an Australian American Express card even though it has a UK billing address.  So I went back again, and still got the Lion.  I clicked Buy several times but nothing happened.  Then out of the blue it changed to Install.  I clicked that many many many many many many times. Nothing happened whatsoever.  I am going to have to give up for now and try and get through to Apple tomorrow as they shut up shop and there is no sales or tech support.  God knows how many times they have charged my credit card for all the times I clicked Buy and nothing appeared to happen, or maybe it did happen and just doesn't tell you.
    So far tonight I've done nothing but start and restart AppStore, log in over and over, click the price>Buy and try to click install. and for all this effort so far I have got a big fat zero.
    I would have thought by now that Apple would have had some experiene in designing and delivering software over the internet, but my experience tells me that they are complete beginners whe it comes to user-friendly ecommerce.  This is some of the laziest web work I've had the misfortune to be annoyed by.
    Here's what I think should happen:
    Log in once and once only
    Click the product you want
    Click Buy (a separate button from the price tag)
    Once sale approved, click Download
    Progress bar appears

    Do you have another disk or Mac connected that has Pages '09 from the Mac App Store installed? If so, the MAS will "see" it & will report it as installed. Unmount any & all drives, including Time Machine backups, that might have Pages '09 on them & then relaunch the MAS & see if you can download it.

    You just now installed 10.8.5? Did you purchase that at the app store?
    What is the upgrade being offered?
    FWIW, you are not running iOS on a Mac Pro (we are talking about the desktop tower Mac Pro, right?)

    Have you restarted your phone?
    If so, try a reset. Press and hold the home & sleep/wake buttons until the screen goes blank, ignoring the power off slider if it comes up.
    Check for the app again after the phone starts back up.
