Where did Lion Go from the app store?

Where did Lion Go from the app store?  it's gone.  I my MacBook Pro can't run Mountain Lion but it could run Lion.  But it's gone!

If you need to purchase Lion call 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775. Ask for a Sales Representative. They will check your Apple ID, and email you a code and instructions.  The cost is $29.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download.

  • Mountain Lion OS from the App Store

    I purchased mountain lion os from the app store for my laptop but also want to upgrade my imac from lion to mountain lion. When I went to the mountain lion app to purchase it again for my desktop it did not give me the option to buy only to download. I thought we would have to purchases two copies of the OS for each device, is that incorrect?

    The Terms of Use for Mac App Store software is that you may install it on as many Macs as you own or have in your control. That includes OS X.

  • HT1338 installing Mt. lion update from the app store, FROZE

    Got an update notice from the Apps Store for Mt. Lion update and a canon printer update. Clicked "Update" and everything was normal till a popup to "close Safari to continue the installation."  I closed Safari but the popup did not go away. The update bar says " running package scripts" but nothing has happened in the last hour. Tried to restart the computer but got "Your computer can NOT be restarted now because software is being installed." How do I get out of this mess ?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    Open  > Force Quit and quit App Store. Then, restart Mountain Lion and update to the most recent version

  • Unable to purchase "The Lions Roar" from the app store and 3 others...

    Ok, so I seem to have an odd issue. Sorry if there is another thread about this but a search didn't flag anything up.
    When I purchase from the app store I get the above message come up but I select ok and continue without issue. This is I've never had any issues where an app wasn't downloaded properly and "the lions roar" isn't even in the app store?
    I have tried to resync with iTunes, no luck. I've tried to sign out and sign back in but no luck.
    Its getting really annoying now.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Sean

    Loads of people are getting this.  "The Lion's Roar" appears to be music rather than an app. I get the same thing with an album I downloaded and my message also refers to "2 other items" (the "2 other items" thing seems to be a constant!).  The message seems to refer to a past music download but can appear whether it is apps or media you are downloading.
    It is clearly an iTunes glitch which I have decided to live with rather than waste hours trying to rectify, especially as at it may well be a problem at Apple's end anyway.

  • If I buy Lion now (from the App store) will I get a free Mountain Lion upgrade?

    I haven't been able to find any definitive documentation on this. I have a MBP and Mac Pro at work and haven't upgraded either of them to Lion for various reasons. However, I have now been tasked with some App programming and need Lion. So, my question is - If we buy Lion from the App Store will we get a free upgrade to Mountain Lion?
    Thanks everyone!

    Mountain Lion will be upgradable from Snow Leopard, so if you have not yet purchased Lion then it may be worth it to just wait and not go through two upgrades.

  • I just downloaded Mountain Lion yesterday from the App Store and it won't install. I stopped it when it wouldn't do anything all day and now how do i restart the installation process?

    Uaually when you purchase something from the app store and it has downloaded, you see an install button. I found nothing of that nature. I have a late model 2009 mac mini with plenty of memory and plenty of disk space. What am I missing?

    Never mind, I see it's Mountain Lion.
    Can you check in your Applications Folder to see if the installer is still there. You are confused on some things, because the installer should be giving you a DOWNLOAD text on the purchases page, not install.

  • I purchased Mountain Lion online from the App store but it won't download

    I purchased Mountain Lion from the App Store, and after 2 days it still hasn't downloaded. The download appears to have frozen.
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First of all, restart your Mac and resume the download. To resume the download, open App Store > Purchases, and press the Resume button next to OS X Mountain Lion.
    If it doesn't work, open Finder, go to Applications folder and delete the OS X Mountain Lion installer. Then, open App Store > Purchases, and download Mountain Lion again

  • Mountain Lion gone from the App Store?

    I originally had some disk problems with my 2010 MacBook Pro, so I erased the drive using the recovery console and went to reinstall OSX, but it says I haven't purchased Mountain Lion in the App Store! Well, I went to the App Store to buy it and can't find it?!?!?!

    Yeah, I can't find it in iTunes either... It's like the Obamacare website. DOES-NOT-WORK.    

  • Selling iMac with Lion Installed from the App Store

    Hi Everyone,
    I'll make this quick...
    2008 iMac > purchased Lion as an upgrade via App Store > moved to Europe (where I am now) > decided I want to sell my iMac > I want to do a clean wipe and fresh install of Lion before I sell it.
    My understanding is that the EULA doen't permit the OS to go with the sale. Is this true or did I missread what I found on the internet?
    I don't have the disks that originally came with my iMac. I left them in the US when I moved here so a clean install of Snow Leopard is not an option. How do I prep my machine to sell it?
    Thanks for your help.

    I don't have the disks that originally came with my iMac. I left them in the US when I moved here so a clean install of Snow Leopard is not an option. How do I prep my machine to sell it?
    You are correct - you have to remove Lion from your machine. Since you no longer have the install disks, there are two possibilities:
    You can call Apple and give them your serial number - they will send you machine specific replacement disks, or......
    you can purchase a Snow Leopard retail disk at an online reseller (or possibly a store) and use it.
    You will need one of those.
    Once you have it, insert it and boot from it (by holding the C key while restarting). Go past the language selection, up to Utilties, to Disk Utility and choose erase (use the secure erase so your data are not recoverable). Once the erase is done, it will install the system.
    Removing Lion will also allow the buyer to purchase it - if you do not remove it, the buyer will not be able to update it because the purchase ID and machine ID do not match (unless you want to share your Apple ID with the buyer LOL).

  • HT1349 cannot get lion to download and install from the app store

    the lion os app took 2 days to down load then did not install from the app store.

    Do you mean the install button stays on install, or do you notice a loading bar under your Launchpad icon?
    This may help...

  • I bought a new imac with lion preinstalled. How do I upgrade my 2009 MBP to Lion without having to buy it from the app store?

    When I purchased it I was told that I can use Lion on up to 10 Macs under the license agreement.

    I'm sorry to tell you that whoever told you that was wrong.  The version of Lion that comes WITH a new computer is only licensed to be used with that one computer.  Now, when you BUY Lion OSX from the App Store THAT copy is indeed licensed to be used on several Apple computers that you own.
    Hopefully that helps.  (You'll find other threads in this Forum, that repeat what I have told you.)

  • My MacBook Pro came with Lion pre-installed so I can't re-download it from the app store. Is it possible to get the installESD.dmg file and how can I get it if I can't re-download Lion in Apple Store option?

    My MacBook Pro came with Lion pre-installed so I can't re-download it from the app store. Is it possible to get the installESD.dmg file and how can I get it if I can't re-download Lion in Apple Store option?

    FYI Mac OS X is not designed to be installed on additional Macs, unless you purchased it from the App Store, in which case you can make as many copies as you wish and install it on as many Macs as you own.
    From the Recovery Disk Assistant -
    Notes
    If the computer shipped with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, the external recovery drive may only be used with the system that created it.
    If the system was upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion purchased from the App Store, the external recovery drive can be used with other similarly-upgraded systems.

  • I downloaded Lion from the app store on to my iMac and did not save it to a thumb before installing.  Do I have to buy it again to install on my Macbook Pro and iPad or is there another way to do that?

    I downloaded Lion from the App Store on to my iMac and did not save it to a thumb before installing.  Do I have to buy it again to install  it on my Macbook Pro and iPad,  or is there another way to do that?
    All my electronics are about a year old.   iPad is Model MB293LL (4.2.1) only wi-fi - no phone.
    MacBook Pro is  OSX 10.6.8 Build 10K549.  Also have an AT&T iPhone that I basically use as a Palm, since I changed carriers.
    Thank you for your help. 
    ps: I got an error message and it looks like this did not get posted the first time.  2nd try.

    Open the Mac App Store on your MacBook Pro
    Hold the Option key and click on “Purchases”
    Hold the Option key and click on “OS X Lion” from the purchased app list
    “Installed’ should now say “Install” which allows you to download OS X Lion.
    This assumes you are using the same Apple ID on both computers.
    Lion does not get installed on an iPad. It runs iOS.

  • Where is the install package stored from the app store for Lion?

    This is an all new way of deploying OS updates from Apple. From what I can see, this presents some issues:
    1. Where is the install package that I bought from the app store, and how can I save that offline?
    2. If there's a problem with my device in the future, I have no media of Lion to restart from- so what's the procedure to restore from a TM backup? Go back to 10.6, and then to the 10.7 update?
    3. What if I want to boot from disc or a drive? I don't have a copy of the install to make a bootable image.
    Thanks for the help

    OK, once you install Lion the Installation Package gets deleted. However once you have installed Lion, do following:
    - Open the AppStore Application
    - With pressed Option (on German Keyboard ALT) Key klick on the "Purchased" Tab!
    - You will now see that the prviously greyed out "Install" key for Lion becomes active
    - Download the install package
    - Do not start installation
    - In order to create a bootable DVD or USB drive containing the installer follow instructions posted on
    http://www.macworld.com/article/161069/2011/07/make_a_bootable_lion_installer.ht ml
    This is how you can create installation media.
    For maintenance options (means your Lion installation has some problems but your drive is still OK)
    you can boot from the hidden recovery partitions that was created when you installed Lion.
    To do so, press the Option (ALT) Key while booting. You will have now the option to boot from
    Lion or recovery partition.
    Hope this helps!

  • TS1702 how do i delete from the startup disk? I am trying to get Mountain Lion from the App store and it says that the purchase was not complete because i need 4.06 GB space to download OS x 10.8. and to remove items from my startup disk to increase space

    how do i delete from the startup disk? I am trying to get Mountain Lion from the App store and it says that the purchase was not complete because i need 4.06 GB space to download OS x 10.8. and to remove items from my startup disk to increase space. How?
    Thanks

    You can use iCloud with 10.7.5. You do not need to upgrade to Yosemite. You should provide a minimum of 15 GBs of free space or 10% of the hard drive's capacity, whichever is greater.
    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.
