Unable to redeem Mountain Lion code on Bahrain Appstore.

Got the redeem code. But appstore says its not possible. Whats the fix?

Ah well, I was just being specific that I tried to get to it from Bahrain.
Anyway, I got it from US, online (shipped), while I was there on a holiday.
I don't really think it'll be because Apple does not want its products used in Bahrain; that would be a very weird. Besides, pretty much all the neighboring countries are on the list.
Thanks for your help anyway =)

  • Unable to redeem Mountain Lion OS X

    Recently purchased a Mac Desktop. The previous owners hadn't erased the disk so I did that from disk utilities. Then tried to re-load OS but states my apple ID hasn't purchased Mountain Lion OS X. Signed into apple store from another device and purchased it. Now I have confirmation and codes ready to redeem. However I cannot access the Mac App Store as I don't have the OS installed on the Mac. Tried from my iPhone but it has to be rom the Mac. How can I redeem\install the OS without being able to redeem it?

    OK. You have an Early 2009 iMac model. So, you will need either the original Leopard installer disc that came with the computer when it was new or a retail Snow Leopard DVD to get started.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Now at this point you can redeem your Mountain Lion download or you can freely download the latest version of OS X, Mavericks.

    Just purchased imac, how do I redeem osx mountain lion code? I only see an option to purchase when I go to app store.

    I had gone to this link last night and was mailed the code. The email said to copy code and go to the app store to download the software. However when I click the mountain lion app the only option is to "buy". Is there a special link to redeem? What am I missing. Thxs.

  • Unable to install Mountain Lion because HD is "being used for backups"?

    I have been unable to install mountain lion because it is saying that my hard drive is being used for time machine backups. That makes no sense, because I use an external hard drive to backup my computer. I'm not sure why this is happening.

    Do you, for some reason, have an item named "Backups.backupdb" on your hard drive? If so, you need to get rid of that in order to install.

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Contact the folks that sent you the code or AppleCare for assistance.

  • I am unable to install Mountain Lion

    I am unable to install Mountain Lion on my IMac which is running OS X 10.6.8. During the beginning of the installation process, after accepting the legal page, the installer said the HD I have chosen for the intallation (Machintosh HD) is used for Time Machine backups but I use another HD for them. Any help?

    Your target installation drive most likely has a Time Machine folder or Time Machine boot picker file still on it that are blocking the installation. These will need to be gone before the installation process will proceed.
    Look for these on the root of the target installation disk:
    /Backups.backupdb
    /tmbootpicker.efi
    and maybe:
    /.apdisk

  • HT4854 Unable to download Mountain Lion because it takes too long....

    So far am unable to download Mountain Lion because it's taking so long that my computer goes to sleep then it stops downloading and I have to start all over.  Says it takes 9 hours to download.  This makes it almost impossible to get the product downloaded.   I'm very frustrated and would like to either be able to get it done or get my money back. 
    Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    You need to go to Energy Preferences and set computer to
    never sleep until you finish your download.  Then you can
    re-enable it.
    BTW, since it takes that much time to download, when the
    download completes and the install dialog comes up, cancel
    the install and save the installer app to a safe place (USP memory
    stick, external drive, etc.) so you don't need to download again
    in the future.
    After you have save it, then you can run the installer by just
    double clicking the app in Applications.

  • OsX Mountain Lion Code not redeemed

    I receive a code for free downloading osx mountain lion for my new retina macbook pro. But when I try redeem it mac app store say that "This code has already bee Used".... What to DO??

    Called them. They have it shut down because "people were trying to get Mountain Lion before it ws released" anyways none of the codes will work, the rep told me I would get some new codes "later today". Kinda ****** deal but it is what it is... As if they can't tell when we submitted the request.

  • Redeem mountain lion software

    I have a MacBook Pro and a MacBook Air.  The Air lost its operating system somehow and would not boot.  I created a thumbdrive to boot it.  I purchased Mountain Lion.  Apple delivered a redemption code for the software.  I entered the code (on the Pro, since the Air can not get to the Mac App Store).  It said it was downloading, but after a long long time I saw no evidence of that, so I went to the Mac App Store to see what's up.  It shows the purchase on the list, but it won't download.  If I click "download" it just sits there and then reverts to the unclicked button state.   If I click on the name of the software it says "Not available in the US Store."    *** is this BS????   So far, Apple is worse than MS ever dreamed of being in every respect in this experience.   Does anyone from Appke monitor these forums?   If so, please dear God let me know how to get the software I paid for in good faith.  My email is [email protected] if that helps.  Yes, I have an Apple ID and all that crap, which I will verify if you contact me. Thank you. 

    Hi,
    Just had the same problem and was totally confused by the entire situation. No expert advice to offer and I am hopelessly confused with the new "App Store" situation - I can't even get that working on my laptop even though the App is there. I only want to load Mountain Lion into my desktop Mac Pro and things are working on that computer. After jumping through multiple hoops managed to get to the redeem point on the desktop computer. I have been using Snow Leopard and am only upgrading to Mountain Lion because I need to go to 10.8 for some other software I want to install.
    I clicked on that **** thing multiple times before I finally noticed a little tiny slider had appeared on my dock which begins filling up with blue. It takes a long while but when it is finished a little button with a Mountain Lion photo will appear in the dock and that allows you to install. Don't know if your experience will be the same and if this will be of any help but since no one has responded I thought I'd try. Yes, I had the "Not available in the US Store" thing too...oh, probably a waste of time contacting support because they gave me some canned information which applied to an iPad. Despite several emails back and forth I finally figured out the guy wasn't really reading the questions I was asking because his responses didn't apply. Duh.

    3. Clcik the Redeem link in the Quick Links on the right hand side of the Featured pane.
    4. Enter the code to redeem and begin the download of the Mt Lion installer.

  • OS X Mountain lion code does NOT work - Please help

    I bought my 2012 Macbook pro June 21 2012. I qualify for the free OS X Mountain lion upgrade. I got my emails, one with the PDF file, one with the password to it. I open up the red PDF file, enter my password and it does NOT work. I took my password to the Mac App store, clicked Quick Link, Redeem, placed my code in and it STILL DOES NOT work. PLEASE HELP!!! I need the new OS, plus Im supposed to get it for free! Its not fair how they sent me a bad code / improper instructions on how to redeem it.

    suggestion - call apple.....since we're all users here, it's hard to give you the right suggestion/answer regarding your issue...
