Mountain Lion Download option disappeared from app store.

I purchased mountain lion and downloaded it to a few of my macs and I was trying to install it again and it no longer shows as a download option in the app store. Do they only let you download it a limited number of times?

No, whatever the problem is, that is not it.
Try signing out of the App Store, and signing in again. It should appear under "Purchases".
Make sure that you did not "hide" the purchase:

  • Download installation files from app store to make a bootable USB

    Hi,
    I just got a new mac mini with OS X Server 10.8.2. I want to replace the original hard drive with an SSD, but I have problems downloading installation files from app store to make a bootable USB stick.
    When i click the Purchases button it tells me that OS X Server is already installed, and I'm not able to download the files.
    I have tried all the diffrent forms of Option key clicks but nothing works.
    Anyone out there who have a solution?
    Is it possible to get the installation media in some other way?
    By the way. Is it possible to install the non server version on a computer thats bought with the server version pre installed.
    I thought so. But I read something about firmware problems on a forum page?

    You cannot download Mountain Lion or Mountain Lion Server from the App Store if it was pre-installed on the computer.
    You can call Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. They may be willing to arrange a download for you. Or you can reinstall via Internet Recovery: OS X (Lion/Mountain Lion)- About OS X Recovery.
    No, you can purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store on the computer you want to install it if it now has Snow Leopard or Lion running.

  • I deleted my iMovie from computer and from my purchases list in AppStroe. When I'm trying to download it again from App Store a pop up window comes up and says: "These apps were already assigned to your Apple ID and are available in your Purchases list"

    I deleted my iMovie from computer and from my purchases list in AppStroe. When I'm trying to download it again from App Store a pop up window comes up and says: "These apps were already assigned to your Apple ID and are available in your Purchases list". Please help me to reinstall it.

    If new versions of iPhoto and the other iLife applications (iMovie and GarageBand) were purchased by the previous owner from the Mac App Store, then they will be locked to the previous owner's Apple ID and cannot be transferred to you. You will have to re-purchase them under your own Apple ID.
    If this is an older MBA that came with Snow Leopard or an earlier version of Mac OS X, though, the system would have come with an installation disk that included the iLife applications, a disk which the seller should have provided to you. Those iLife applications would be older versions, of course, and may or may not work in Lion depending on how old they are.

  • I download a game from app store and when i start to play my macbook heats up

    when i download a game from app store and start to play it my macbook starts to heat up very quickly making me to delete the games in order to come to normal.why is that?i mean i wont be able to play any games ? because i tried that not only with one specific game but with many

    The MBA may be used for light game playing. It's not designed for heavy games that demand lots of CPU and GPU power. So you need to determine if the demands of the games meet what the MBA can deliver. It's also possible you are trying to play a game version that is not wholly compatible with the version of OS X in use. This can cause issues with compatibility. It's important that your MBA possesses the minimum hardware needed for a game. Note that having the minimum hardware does not mean that the MBA is suitable hardware.

  • Only allow my kids to download freeware version from app store

    Hello All,
    I have created app store account, but I only want to allow my kids to download freeware version from app store..so the kids should ask me to login before they able to purchase something from app store..
    I need advise..
    many thanks in advance
    Regards

    What kind of advice do you want? We don't read minds here.
    As long as you don't give the kids your password thay can't buy anything. However, your password is good for 15 minutes, if you walk away they could then buy something when you are not looking. So it is best to sign out of the account immediately after the free item has downloaded.
    If you remove the bank card from the account they also can't buy anything.

  • When downloading an update from app store, password is requested from a different user.  How to change user?

    when downloading an update from app store, password is requested from a different user.  How to change user?

    Unfortunately there's no way around this.  you will need that password to update the apps. If he won't give it to you, then i'm not sure what to say.
    You should have kept the account with the Apps you bought yourself.
    Otherwise, as I said, delete the Apps, and buy them again.
    Sorry.

  • Web order disappeared from App Store

    When I purchased my MBPro last year, it was given a free upgrade to OSX Lion. Sometime later that "purchase" disappeared from the list of other purchases I've made at the App store. My question is how to restore it to the list of purchases. Anyone have an idea?  Thanks.

    Thanks. But I guess I should have been clearer: I used the upgrade (as it was a brand new laptop when the new OSX came out) and it was on my list of apps for a while. Then, one day it wasn't. It's more of a curiosity for me than a necessity to know I can relist Lion among my downloaded and installed apps. If you have any more suggestions, I'd be greatful.

  • Is LION 10.7.4 from App Store compatible with mid-2012 Macbook Pro 15"?

    I just downloaded lion 10.7.4 from the app store, copied it to a pen drive in the right way (which makes it bootable & tested that and it boots on a 2008 MBP). Connected that pen drive to my 2012 MBP, booted by pressing the alt key, and when i selected the pen drive with the 10.7.4 installation, I get a no entry sign on the screen - basically meaning I cannot install lion.
    Note that I have completely formatted my HD, thus losing the lion recovery partition, so thats why I am having to install from the pen drive.

    You can install lion on that Mac you just have to start it and be sure to connect to a good internet connection. I suggest you are plugged in to a router directly. Then it should prompt you and when you sign in it will see that you purchased Lion and will verify your mac then it will guide you through the rest of the install. try doing that before you restoe it , you may waste alot of time considering you formatted. Otherwise if it is a mid-2012 it absolutely is compatible and you can call Applecare and they will guide you through it with ease.
    The firmware on your mac is what will pull up the promt for connecting to the internet and other such utilities.
    Good luck and enjoy !
