Where do I find my mt. lion install

I just purchased an upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mt. Lion and when I received the download, decided not to install it for a while. It was in my dock. Now it has disappeared and I can't find it. Where did it go?

The installer resides in the Applications folder until it is activated. You should find it in there. Make a copy of it some place safe like your Documents folder since the last step in the installation is for the installer to delete itself.

Where can I find my mountain lion installer included with 2012 mac mini

I just bought a 2012 mac mini and I want to install mountain lion on an SSD that I bought separately. Where can I find the mountain lion installer file to create a bootable USB install drive? When I go to the mac app store, mountain lion is not listed in my purchases and when I try to buy it, it says "We could not complete your purchase. OS X Mountain Lion is not compatible with this computer." It's already installed on the mac mini, I just need the installer file so I can install it on my SSD.

You might be able to simply boot into the ML Recovery HD, select Reinstall OS X and point to your SSD drive. You won't capture the InstallESD.dmg file to create a USB thumb drive installer.
OR.... to create a USB thumb drive of your pre installed ML, you would need to redownload Mountain Lion then grab the InstallESD.dmg file and create your USB thumb drive.Here is how I've done it using Internet Recovery to get my pre installed OS X.
Attach a USB external drive to your system. Formated as Mac OS Extended (Journal) and GUID partition table.
Restart using Command+R+Option to boot into Apple's Recovery HD. This will get you the original version. Or just Command+R to boot into your ML Recovery HD.
Select Reinstall OS X from the OS X Utilities menu.
You will have to watch the download. After it completes and your system restarts, at the black screen disconnect the external USB drive.
After you are back to your current desktop, insert the external USB drive. There should be a single folder on the drive called 'Install Data' (I think). Find the InstallESD.dmg file and copy it to a folder on your current system (Downloads, for example).
Follow any of the internet instructions to create a ML USB thumb drive.
I tried this method, and while it did get me the installer image, when I restored it to an external and tried to use it to restore a Late 2012 Mac Mini, I got the same "No" symbol I did with other ML installers.
Here are some screenshots of what was loaded onto my external before I yanked it, when the screen turned black durring the restart. The highlighted file is what I restored to my external to use to restore the Mac Mini.

I can't find iSync after lion install

I can't find iSync after lion install. I try too sync with my N8 Nokia. The program iSync dont appear in program mapp.

It's Apple's software not yours and as shown by it's exclusion on the OS X Lion pages is not part of the new OS. Upgrading to Lion is optional.
It's a trivial matter to copy it back from your Snow Leopard backup, but using it under Lion is not supported at all and WILL stop working sooner or later.
Why would it be sensible for Apple to include software in their new OS that they know will stop working?

Where do I find the file to install Adobe Premiere Elements 10 on Windows 7 64 bits?

Hi there. I ran a little search on the forum for that subject but I couldn't find it. So, if it is a double post or something like that, I'm sorry, and please lead me to where it was already talked about.
The thing is: I bought the downloadable bundle with Premiere Elements 10 and Photoshop Elements 10 and I have the links to download them on my account, no problem. I installed them both on my Windows XP last year and that was ok.
Yesterday I upgraded my PC and now I have Windows 7 64 bits on. I could install Photoshop Elements just fine, but when I try to install Premiere Elements 10, the following error message appears.
So, what do I do? I looked for it on my account again and there is no other file there, just the same file I used before on Windows XP and I'm trying to use now, just like with Photoshop Elements 10, but that worked just fine.
And that leads to my question that is the name of this discusssion. Can someone help me? I live in Brazil and I didn't want to call phone support, and since I didn't find any free agent to call me on chat support, I decided to go here.
I hope you guys can help me and thank you in advance.
My best regards,
Joao Jose Gois

Hi Jeff, thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately it didn't work, but I guess that you helped me to really find the issue here.
I really have only one installer available to me, for both Photoshop Elements and for Premiere Elements. However they have a slight difference in the file name.
On Photoshop, when I download the files, their names are just "Photoshoplements_10_LS15" and the extension. However, on Premiere, after the name of the program there is "win32" and only then we get to the extension file.
So, I only have access to Win32 download. Even if I click on the "Alternate Download Method", I can only see two files: One that is the .7z file and the .exe, but both saying "win32" in the name.
I still can't install it in here.
Is there any mail that I can send to adobe support? When I go to Brazilian Adobe Online Store and click on Support, I'm always redirected to the '.com' website and I end up here.
Once again, thank you all in advance for all the help or attention for this thread.
Regards,
Joao Jose Gois

Solution: Finding the Missing Lion Install App (w/out Option key)

It took me quite a bit of searching to find this solution. I thought I'd dedicate a thread to it for others.
If you downloaded Lion and did a fresh install, it's likely missing from your "PURCHASES" list on the app store.
For many people, holding down the [OPTION] key while clicking "PURCHASES" works. It didn't for me.
I did find that if I went to the App Store and clicked on STORE > VIEW MY ACCOUNT > HIDDEN DOWNLOADS (or something to that effect).
You should see your Lion download. At that point you can click "UNHIDE" and download it again.
Hope this helps someone.

Unless you enjoy wasting hours, bandwidth, and electricity downloading this installer, do yourself a favor and DL it and then save a copy to someplace other than /Applications, since the poorly scripted installer deletes itself after installing if it resides in that default position.

Where do I find idvd on lion?

I'm really confused about idvd on Lion. There's no icon for it. Also I can't get imovie to share to idvd so I can burn a dvd of my project. So far I am unimpressed with Lion. It's confusing and imovie does nothing but crash and error. What is a heap zone? and what is a parameter moething or other that prevents my movie to finish sharing so I can get to idvd to burn a dvd??? Please speak English as I am not versed in geek-speak. I havea new Macbook Pro 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 with 8GB 1333 Mhz DDR3 memory. My computer is only a month or two old. I've taken off any programs I'd installed hoping that would help but it made no difference. Thanks for any help.

The current Apple thinking is that the entire world has access to fast broadband and wants to distribute home movies to friends and relatives via download (iCloud) rather than mailing them a DVD. The fact that in reality not all users do, has so far had no effect on this policy. If you scream and shout loudly enough down the phone Apple may send you a free copy of iDVD. That worked for some, but is now said to have been withdrawn by Apple. Also, you can complain bitterly here, perhaps suggesting that Apple could have provided a choice between using iCloud and burning DVDs:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
Whilst Macs with a Superdrive continue to be able to burn video DVDs, the software for so doing, iDVD, is no longer included in the iLife bundle that comes with OS 10.7 Lion (which also omitted iWeb) or will come with OS 10.8 Mountain Lion. And it is no longer included in the iLife 11 from the online Apple Store: http://www.apple.com/ilife/. Your only solution is to look on Amazon or eBay and try to get an older version that includes iDVD.
However, the vastly more expensive FCPX can burn a DVD without iDVD or DVD Studio Pro involvement, but lack the themes etc of iDVD. Also, of course, there is Roxio Toast.

Where do I find and how to install a generic laserprint ppd ?

I have an old but very good and reliable GCC elite 1212 laser printer that still works. I have updated to OS 10.4.10 and the laserprinters drivers wont install on this OS.
The company (GCC) seems to have disappeared, so i wonder if i can install a generic laserprinter ppd and select the printer through that?
I have the printer on an ethernet network and its a basic B&W laser. Any clever ideas?
G5 Dual Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Hi Greg
Thank you for that.
Here's what I've done that still doesn't seem to be working:
In printer setup utility I went to add new printer > IP printer > Internet printing Protocol and added in the IP broadcast address. In the 'Print using' drop down, the GCC printer is listed so thats selected.
When i try to print from the printer I have an error saying 'Unable to connect to IPP host: Permission denied.'
Not sure what I've done wrong. I've enabled TCP/IP on the printer. Thanks for your help

Where can I find Flash and Acrobat Install packages for Mac OS X?

I'm managing over 200 Macs, and I need the Package Installs for Flash and Acrobat, and I need them everytime you decide to release an update.
Our Department has licenses for 50 copies CS 6 Design & Web Premium, but the Adobe Manager doesn't manage Flash or Acrobat updates.
Do you have Mac OS X Packages for these Apps?

Where would you find password to allow install Mac OS X

Hi,
Just got my husband an iMac for his birthday. Trying to get it set up before he comes home. Can anyone help!

What password are you referring to, the AppleID or his login password, either way you may need to ask him for these if you are upgrading from another Mac. You can also call AppleCare, the number is in your owners manual however they may or may not be available on Sundays. You have 90 days of free telephone support, this would be an ideal time to call them.

HT1822 I don't find any application för Server Admin for my Mountain Lion at Mac app store as stated in the information. Where can I find it?

Where can I find Server Admin after installing Mountain Lion? I can not find it on the store or anywhere? Please help, I need it to connect to my server from my other mac's, in order to administrate without logging in to the server.

If you want the new OS X Server (Mountain Lion) look for "OS X Server" in the App Store.
Server Admin no longer exists for OS X Server - the main functionality like Mail service and Open Directory has been simplified and integrated within the new server app.
The optional Server Admin add-on for Lion was only available from the Apple support site, not from the App store.

Where can I find OS 10.4.11 to install to my old PowerBook G4?

Hello.
I have an old Powerbook G4 on which I had installed OS 10.4.11,
but I can't seem to find the cd to reinstall. It is running a bit slow as it has been many years, and I wanted to format the hard drive and reinstall the same OS.
I also have Mac OS leopard, but i think it might be too heavy for this old machine.
1. What is the latest OS I can put on this powerbook so that it still runs smoothly?
2. If i want to install 10.4.11 where can I find it?

Tiger install DVDs are in short supply. Tiger is no longer available at the Apple Store *but may be available for $129 by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753)*. For other sources, do a Google search for [b]MA453Z/A (10.4.6)[/b], [b]MA190Z/A (10.4.3)[/b] and [b]M9639Z/A (10.4) [/b]. Also look on eBay. Be sure & buy a retail version (black with silver X) <img src="http://www.macmaps.com/tiger.jpg"> and not a model specific version (gray) (See <b><a href=" http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1976068" target="new"> Can I use another Mac's system restore disc on my Mac?</a></b> ). Expect to pay (possibly a lot) more than the Apple list price of $129.
