Now that OSX Mountain Lion has been released, can I still buy OSX Lion to update my 2009 Mac?

I have a 2009 MacBook running OSX Snow Leopard with the latest update. I wanted to upgrade to the new Mountain Lion but I got the message that my system couldn't run it. So now I'm wondering if I can upgrade to the Lion 10.7 OS but I can't find it anywhere in the iTunes store or the Apple online store. Plenty of places to download the 10.7.x upgrades but not the OS. So, is it no longer available now that Mountain Lion has been released? Or do I have to visit a store to buy the disk?

You have to Call Apple, 1-800-My-Apple, and order it over the phone. Apple will then send you a email with a Code in it to download it from the MAS.

Macbook, Snow Leopard 10.6.8 Since the last software update Safari 5.1 will not save history. Prefs. are set correctly, reset has been done, appropriage plist has been trashed, now Saf. 5.1 has been re-installed. Still dumps history every time

Macbook, Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Safari 5.1.1
Since the last software update, Safari will not save bookmarks history.
Prefs. are set correctly, Cache has been dumped, reset done, appropriate .plist trashed, and finally an uninstall and clean install done
with 5.1.1 download from the Apple support site.
The problem still exists, making me very suspicious that this is a bug.
Any solutions? Let's hear 'em.

M. Davis:
Thank you for your kind and prompt solution. It is a winner.
Problem solved, again many thanks and a very fine evening/day wherever you
may be.

Mountain Lion not installing on 2009 Mac Mini

I have tried a few times to install the new Mountain Lion OS X onto my 2009 Mac Mini. I have gone through the basic checklists of what to do prior to installing but the install keeps on getting stuck after the original download and restart.
Once downloaded and the install process has begun it restarts and then the OS X install screen apears and it shows how many minutes it will take to install.
It remains at 34 minutes, the second time I attempted an install I left the computer on overnight to make sure it wasn't installing very slowly, it was left on for over 12 hours but did not advance in the process.
Details on the computer:
2009 Mac Mini
Software: version 10.7.5
Processor: 2.26 GHz Intel Core Duo
Memory: 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Hard Drive Space Available: 52.26GB
I have viewed many other problem threads here based on installing Mountain Lion and the hard disk having problems. My computer will just not advance past the very beginning of the install and I am able to reboot the install disk and retry or just go back to OS X Lion so I can use the computer again.
Anyone have a tip or something I can look into to see what may be the problem??

Found this elsewhere after a couple weeks of searching, inserting an old install DVD worked;

Funnily enough I had the same problem yesterday.. tried 10 times but installer kept hanging at 34mins as well.. I noticed that while it was loading it was accessing the DVD drive.. with nothing in it then hanging.. I put in an installer disk for Snow Leopard, and the ML installer loaded and installed.. don't ask me why, no idea but give it a try..

I've registered my IPad to Finland.I want to buy a movie but the Finnish store doesn't have that. US store has. Why can't I buy it from there?

Well the topic says it all. I'd be very happy if I could get advice how to get around this problem.

The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.

My iphone 4 won't connect to my apple id account it keeps saying that my account limit has been reached

you can only use your apple id on 10 devices, so if you have signed into devices, and not signed out, that would be your problem

Itunes is saying that 11.0.5 is the most current version on my mac book pro even though 11.1 has been released. what gives?

itunes is saying that 11.0.5 is the most current version on my mac book pro even though 11.1 has been released. what gives?

Hey Blake Placid,
Thanks for the question. If you have not already done so, I would download and install iTunes directly from the following link:

I have just been sent an email to say that my apple id has been used to download ibooks. I have now changed my passport but want to know if I will be charged as I did not download this ?

I have been sent an email to say that my apple id has been used to download ibooks. I have now changed my password as I have not downloaded ibooks. I would like to know if I am going to be charged ?

Was it a genuine email from Apple or a phishing attempt to try and get your account and payment details ? Whether you will be charged will depend if anything was downloaded on your account, and whether or not it was a free item - we are fellow users here on these forums, we won't know if anything has been bought on your account.
The iBooks app is free app, but if you haven't already done so then check to see if anything shows on your account's purchase history : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store.
If a purchase shows there and you didn't make it, and nobody else has access to your account or devices and made it, then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Bridge will not now let me use camera raw, though I had been using it every day. It says that "the parent application is not active. Bridge requires that a qualifiying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature." What am I to do?

Usually this points to having some kind of earlier trial version still installed on your system. However without more details you are not likely to find an answer. Try this for a start:

After downloading osx 10.9.2 when i open my logic pro 9 and begin to audition loops that came with lp9 i get a message that says "audio device has been removed and then a second message the " select driver not found(-10202). my interface is a apogee duet

Can anyone provide a solution to this problem. Thanks

YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!
I got it!!! Yes!!!
Guys, I've solved my problem about that error -10202 (Selected driver not found).
I have installed in my Mac Pro (OS X 10.5.8) a document with an extension ".rsrc" to correct the position of the accents in my keyboard, like acute accent, tilde and circumflex.
That file is called "U.S. - International.rsrc" and it's stored in the following path:
"Macintosh HD/Library/Keyboard Layouts"
So, when it's properly installed, I can choose 2 country flags on the right side of the menu bar (U.S. - International and Brazilian).
That's the clue!
When I pick up "U.S. - International", my keyboard works fine with the accents, >>>BUT<<< Logic Pro 9 doesn't recognize my audio driver; and when I pick up "Brazilian", my keyboard doesn't work with the accents exactly as it shows me on each key, BUT Logic Pro 9 DOES recognize my audio driver.
So, when I want to write anything out, I will pick up the "US - International" and when I want to work on the Logic Pro 9, I will pick up "Brazilian".
I hope I can help all of you.
Regards,
Renato Veiga.
