Need to download Lion again?

I have the latest version of OSX Lion 10.7.3, but when I open Appstore, it says that I can download Lion, even though I already have it installed. If I go to the "Purchased" tab in Appstore all my bought Apps are installed except for Lion where it says "Install" instead of "Installed". Does anyone know if this is an update or if I just should ignore this?
Thanks in advance!

Ignore it. If you're running 10.7.3 and Software Update says you're up-to-date you're good to go.
You may want to take the opportunity to download and save the Lion installer.dmg, if you don't have one, in case you ever need to re-install.

Did you actually download the installer from Apple or did you use Software Update. You can download the installer http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Maybe I'm old fashioned but I would consider repairing permissions first using Disk Utility because something caused this to go wrong the first time. And of course make a backup of your whole library first. It shouldn't happen but some have complained about their libraries being wiped out by iTunes updates. Better safe...

How can I get my itunes onto my new laptop? Do I need to download itunes again or can I just copy it? My ipod classic has since been soaked in water and does not work so I cannot copy from there. Can anyone help?

Do I need to download lion to move onto mountain lion?

I am downloading snow leopard right now, and I was wondering if I need to download lion before I download mountain lion? Can I just go straight to mountain lion?

You don't need Lion 10.7 but do need to update to 10.6.8. If you're installing it from a retail DVD and not using a copy on your organization's LAN (if any), it'll be either 10.6 or 10.6.3.

Hi mctodd,
I am happy to help--what software do you need to download again? Did you lose Acrobat? Or was it a different Adobe product?
Please let me know specifically what you're looking for, and we'll get this sorted out for you.

Do I need to download Lion seperately for each mac in my house?

Do I need to download Lion seperately for each mac in my house? Which would also result in paying for it multiple times, or is there some way to install on multiple macs with one download?

No. You can install Lion on all the computers you personally own. Just be sure each is running Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later. Open the App Store on each computer and log in using the Apple ID you used to purchase Lion. Click on Purchases. Click on the Install button to the right of the entry for your Lion purchase. The installer will be re-downloaded.
You may want to read the following first:
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.

I need to download LR5 again; how do I do this without paying for it again?

I need to download LR5 again; how do I do this without paying for it again?
I had to uninstall due to an error that kept on appearing after I updated to 5.3 (the error is a 0xc000007b error).

You can go to Adobe's website and download the free trial, and then enter your serial number
however, downlaoding again is not necessary. You can use the same disk/download that you used before to install LR.
The 0xc000007b error is fixable via http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/error-unable-start-correctly-0xc00007b.html

Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

Why do I need to install Lion again?

This is an odd one.. I have tried to search the support communities to see if anyone else is having the same problem but cant find it so this could be an isolated case... Anyway....
I have just updated my Lion OSX to the latest version 10.7.3 through the Mac app store - while it was downloading and to kill a bit of time while it was downloading I clicked onto the 'Purchased' tab to have a browse at my previous purchases and noticed that it was asking me to download the full version of Lion again!!.. The 4GB version... Has anyone else noticed this in their purchase tab? - I have checked the other Macs I have in case it was just the machine I was working on but all of them are saying the something. Appreciate your comments back before I download it again... Maybe its just a glitch in the app store but wanted to check if anyone else has had the same message. Thanks.

UPDATE... Gone onto the mac store today and now in the purchase tab Lion has been removed so looks like I have not even purchased it... I did a search for it in the store and instead of saying "Installed" - its giving me the selling price... Just like it does when you first purchase the software!!
What's going on?... HELP!!!
