Сan not download OS X Mountain Lion, v10.8 (4 ) very slow internet

Unfortunately, on a slow internet connection with Mountain Lion being a 4.34GB file, the download is most likely going to time out before it can finish.
A suggestion. Try pausing the download then resuming at intervals > Mac App Store: How to resume interrupted downloads

HT1349 MY SERIAL NUMBER IS ALREADY CLAIMED BUT I HAVE NOT DOWNLOADED OS X MOUNTAIN LION.

I believe the person who was helping me at the store requested for me a download of the operating system but may have located me as in the United States (I do not know if that makes a difference). Either way I never got the confirmation email and I never downloaded OS X Mountain Lion.
Assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.

-Create a bootable install drive for OS X Mountain Lion on USB
-restart and hold cmd + r to access the menu
The issue here is that command-R starts up the machine from the recovery partition, not from whatever bootable install disk you created. So you have to download the system. If you want to start up from the bootable install disk, hold down the option key at startup, with the disk connected.

My Mountain Lion OSX is very slow and some of my applications get hang and also shutting down is slow

I have noted after install of Mountain Lion OSX my system and aplication opening has slow

Open Console.app by clicking on Spotlight in the top-right of the screen and typing 'Console', then press 'return.
Look in the sidebar under 'FILES' for 'System Log' and click on it.
Click the 'Clear Display' icon in the taskbar, and then 'Insert Marker'. Make a note of the time on the marker.
Press the power button once to display the shutdown window. Make sure 'Reopen Windows when logging back in' is selected. Shutdown the computer (not 'Restart').
When the computer is off, press the power button again and log in. The Console window should be at the front of your screen. Skim through the messages and look for any obvious hangs or repeated messages.

After mountain lion install mac very slow

After Mountain Lion install, my MacBookPro mid-2009 version is extremely slow. What could be causing it to slow down ?

There are a bunch of threads about this. Use the search function and see what others are finding out.

HT202159 I have partially downloaded OS X Mountain Lion ...

I have partially downloaded OS X Mountain Lion. I lost my internet connection and my download stopped. I put my computer to sleep and took it somewhere else with a different connection to finish the download. Where I am, internet isn't very fast and so a download requires me to leave it on overnight . I got 3GB out of the 4GB the way there when this happened so I'd really like to avoid starting this over again.
When I go to purchases on the Mac App Store it says "An error has occurred" with a blank grey box next to it, and clicking it does nothing. Clicking "Check for unfinished downloads" also does nothing. Clicking "buy app" and it tells me I can download the app for free, and then it just hangs and nothing happens.
Is there a way to find the partially downloaded file on my Mac and restart where I left off?

Same issue. I went into Activity Monitor and killed the stalled process. When I restarted App Store, the download started from scratch. I assumed that my earlier download had been overwritten, and sure enough, it had been. I followed these instructions to reveal the temp directory:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57480536-263/tackling-mountain-lion-downloa d-errors/
There was only one file in there (mzm.whodaifs.pkg), and it's the same size as currently indicated by the App Store progress bar. No 2.5GB file in sight. At least that's not going to sit around taking up HD space.
I've come across this other method for restarting downloads:

Though it's now a moot question, I might try the debug menu method if it happens again.

Lightroom not included in AAM Mountain Lion

OK, I've read about the issues with Lightroom and AAM on XP. So why can I not download it on Mountain Lion? I have installed AAM 6.2.112.0 (6.2.112.0) and it just does not present in the list.
Is there any way to install a trial version of LR and then register it with CC?

Hi Shanebettsphotog,
You might try creating a new admin user and see if it appears under that account.

It appears Apple’s download servers are ‘overwhelmed’ today. I couldn’t download the newest iTunes update or IOS 7 and there are a lot of discussions today about not being able to download. One poster said they had chatted with App Store support who confirmed the problem.

HT6150 i need the os x mavericks download, im on mountain lion, and i wish to obtain mavericks on my computer not yosemite

You will need to contact Apple, try iTunes Support. Mavericks was pulled from the MAS when Yosemite was released and the only possible way to get it is by contacting Apple directly.
good luck

Why are you trying to download, to port it elsewhere?

I cannot download OS X Mountain Lion, I get an error message that says: "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed." Why am I receiving this message?

Since downloading OS X Mountain Lion my WordSearch9 will not open. I got a message that X11 was not supported and directed to a sited to download XQuartz. Now when I try to launch WordSearch9 I get a message "X11 cannot be found.

Since downloading OS X Mountain Lion my WordSearch9 will not open. I got a message saying that X11 was not supported and directed to a site to download an update "XQuartz" which I did. Now when I try to launch WordSearch9 I get a message "X11 cannot be found". I did follow the instructions to download and install XQuartz, but there still seems to be a problem. Anyone have an idea?

Your report indicates Mountain Lion, but your footer indicates Lion. I'll assume you're on 10.8.2; on the current Mountain Lion version.
Rebooting is fine.
The posted diagnostics look like there might be a problem with the Xquartz install, or it is not starting, or it's not authorized for the sandbox. (But I don't know enough about that to be certain.)
Try launching X11.app directly from your Applications > Utilities folder, and see if that works, or if shows any dialog boxes, or that reports any errors.
If you had an Xquartz kit installed and it's not the 2.7.4 (current) Xquartz kit, then please update to that version. (I'm assuming that site is where you got your Xquartz kit from, too.)
I'd also suggest also discussing this more directly with the Xquartz folks via mailing list or the IRC channel, or collecting up the Xquartz logs and then posting a bug over at the Xquartz site; here are the details on bug reporting for Xquartz.

Hi kiwirudy,
I've had the same problem more than once since I started trying to download my 14 April purchase of OS X Mountain Lion.
I found a property list called manifest.plist in my ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder which had a Boolean property called failed checked. I unchecked it and afterwards I was able to resume my download.
Here are some steps I've found useful:
Close the Mac App Store.
make a copy of the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder. For some strange reason the Mac App Store likes to just delete it in some circumstances, which will mean that one has to start one's download again from the very beginning.
Double click on the manifest.plist in one's ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder.
This should open it in Property List Editor.
Expand all the nodes (holding down the alt key and clicking on the highest collapsed node should do it.
Find a key called failed of type Boolean and uncheck it.
Save the manifest.plist and close it.
Open the Mac App Store.
The red message "an error has occured" should now be gone and one should be able to resume one's download.
In the event that the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder gets deleted:
start the download again (it will start from the beginning), pause it and close the Mac App Store.
copy your backup copy of the pkg file back to its sub-folder (it's a numbered folder in the ~/Library/Application Support/AppStore folder).
Open the Mac App Store and resume your download.
It should continue from where it left off.
This has worked for me so far. I'm holding my breath. Don't know if I'll still be alive when it's finished.
Regards
Nic

Download was complete and I accepted everything and restarted computer but its still running 10.7.5
Any idea how to get OS X Mountain Lion to run?

What you donwloaded was the OS installer. You still have to do the installation.
To get started, double click on the download, then double click again and follow instructions.
