Purchased and downloaded Lion 10.7.1 installation doesn't work

I purchased and downloaded Lion 10.7.1, the installation icon appears on the tools bar, but when I launch it, it tells me that cannot install lions because cannot verify the software; what can I do now without paying once more time? just download it again or should I cancel some files before that? The downloading is quite misterious because Apple doesn't show anything, so it's impossible to have an idea of what's going on.
Thanks for any help

Hi Danimauri,
Where did you purchase this from? If you got it from the Mac App Store, you'd usually get 10.7.3, not 10.7.1 (as far as I'm aware).
If you're sure you downlaoded this form the Mac App Store, I would delete the copy you've downloaded and redownload it again. Make sure your signed in with the same AppleID you originally bought it with, otherwise you may get charged again.
Hope this helps,
Morgan

I just purchased and downloaded Lion and now I find that the "Save As" field in no longer available under "File" in Pages. So I can't save a document as a Word document. Any ideas?

Is anyone having this same problem and if so can you help me out with a solution?

It's not a 'problem' it's a new feature of Lion called Auto Save.
You need to get familiar with the new ways in Lion. Start here, then dig deeper.

How do I install Lion on external hard drive? I have purchased and downloaded through App Store but do not know where the download is located so I can install.

I want to install Lion on an external hard drive. The OS was purchased and downloaded through the App Store but I do not know where the file is.

If you downloaded the installer it will be in your applications folder. Failing that use spotlight start typing Install and it should show up.
This is assuming you downloaded the installer from the app store, and didn't just install it onto your mac. If all you have done is install it on your mac. Go to your purchases Lion should show up. Then click download.
Here is the Support page for installing osx on an external drive.

You can install it on any computer you own...

HT1338 Wanted to purchase and download OS X Mountain Lion.

I wanted to purchase and download OS X Mountain Lion but could not. Message told me that I did not have enough memory to download. I have 1GB of ram but they are saying that I Mountain Lion needs 2 GB. Are they talking desk top memory or what? I do have 17 GB of memory available. What to do?

They are talking about RAM, not storage. See this, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1423?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US It provides you steps to install more RAM. Of course, provided you purchase that ram.

Why can't I purchase and download Mountain Lion? I get the following message: The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed.

I have tried to re-install Lion, delete different cach folders, etc., nothing is working - I keep getting the same message:
We could not complete your purchase
The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed.
Please can anyone be of kind assistance.
Thank you!

If you are trying to reinstall Lion, you need to use Lion Recovery

For that issue, quit the App Store if it's open.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
Click Go
Move the NetworkInterfaces.plist file from the SystemConfiguration folder to the Trash.
Relaunch the App Store and try downloading MLion.
***** Your post is rather confusing. There's a difference between reinstalling Lion and downloading Mountain Lion.

does it say not installed or does it say "download" in app store purchases?
if it say's download, then it's there for future use if you need to download it again.
see image below - i'm running Mountain Lion and it say's download in my App Store.

You'll have to download again. You will not be charged if you use the same Apple ID.
Save the file somewhere before installing.

Purchasing and downloading photoshop cs5 education help.

I am looking to purchase and download photoshop cs5 education version direct from adobe australia. However i would like to know if once i have downloaded whether i am able to install it on both my computers imac and macbook pro? Or am i limited to the activation code only working once?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

THis is a User to User forum. For direct answers from Adobe, call Adobe Customer service.
However, the US EULA allows for 2 installs of the software. I do not know if the Australian EULA is differnt.

Alibutlerdesigns you will use the same process to install on your second computer. You can copy the installation files using a USB drive if you do not wish to download the installation files again.

I just purchased and downloaded snow leopard
Uh…no, you didn't. Snow Leopard is not available as a download, and never has been. So that means you're running Lion, in which case Parallels 3 definitely won't be compatible with it. You need to check what you're really running and use that information to post in the correct forum, as well as provide the necessary information about it.
