Why can i not find OS X lion 10.7 (2012)

I am currently running 10.6.8 on an iMac6,1 with an Intel Core 2 Duo (2.16 GHz). I want to upgrade to Lion becuase I cannot upgrade to Mountian Lion (or so I gathered by reading that my model isn't supported?). I have searched this site, I have Googled the crap out of it in every way I can think of, I have looked in the ap store... The only thing I can find for Lion are the updates, but not the actual os. How do I go about getting it?
Thank you!

If you need to purchase Snow Leopard, you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
Snow Leopard from eBay
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.

  • Why can't the finder in Mountain Lion 10.8.2 find files that have successfully downloaded, or that other programs can find?

    Why can't the finder in Mountain Lion 10.8.2 find files that have successfully downloaded, or that other programs can find?
    This happens with maybe 1 out of 5 files. These are files that have either an ."aa" extention, or or are libraries that icloud can see, but finder can't.

    Files beginning with a period are invisible and library files are system files. Spotlight cannot find either unless configured to do so (btw, this is not a Finder issue but a Spotlight issue.)
    Get Spotlight to search system files (and more)
    Enter the search term in the Finder window's search field.
    Click the [+] button in the search bar to add a search option.
    In the first drop down menu choose Other.
    Choose “System Files” from the list that pops up (and check the box to place in drop down menu to avoid this step later,) click on the OK button.
    Now back in the Finder choose Include from the second drop down menu.

    I have upgrade ios 6 to ios7 on my iphone 5.  I do NOT like it at all.   I want to come back to the previous version.  why is it so complicated? Why can I not find the instruction strait from apple? This is the worst possible upgrade ever.  It make me think of when ericsson got sold to Sony....drastic PC change.
    I would like to have simple instruction on how to downgrade.
    It feel like a change that I did not ask for , ok I push the upgrade buttom, but really this is the worst update aver!

  • RENAME:  When I rename a photo why can I not find it doing a search?  The photo obviously keeps its old name even though it has a new one   IPhoto 09

    When I rename a photo why can I not find it doing a search?  The photo obviously keeps its old name even though it has a new one>  IPhoto 09

    Thanks, that makes sense.  If I do a search in IPhoto I find it.  I have 6 grand children and also have had my camera for quite awhile and it starts file names over again after 10,000 pictures. (I don't have all these on the computer) but now I have some files with the same name  ie  img_4   and img_4
    Thanks again for your help!!

  • Lens Data- Why Can I Not Find It?

    I use a Mac and ran the trial version of Aperture and liked it but it did not run very smoothly so I have purchased LR3. The features and utilities are about the same with one exception, Aperture automatically gives you lens name along with all the other EXIF photo data (aperture, zoom, etc...). Lightroom gives me aperture, zoom, ISO and shutter, just like Aperture but will not tell me the lens make and model. Am I missing something? I looked at that lens profiler program but didnt understand why I need it (and looking at the instructions with a checkerboard and other extra steps seemed unnecessary). If the camera records the lens along with the other pertinent information automatically (it must as Aperture picked it right up), why can I not find it?

    I use a Pentax *ist DS and have a few different lenses. Some are older manual focus and a few are auto focus ones. The camera body reads the autofocus ones and whenever the photos were loaded up into Aperture, it gave the usual EXIF shot data as well as which lens was being used (whenever the autofocus ones were attached). Im hoping that LR3 can do the same thing without having to load up a separate plug in program in order to do it. I figured if the camera does it and Aperture picks it up, LR3 should too, right?

  • Why can I not find my hardware of RT system in MAX?

    My test sytem include RT system based on PXI bus and Windows system installed in industrial PC.They are connected by LAN.
    After I install the RT system and drivers, I can find all hardware of RT system through Remote system in MAX. But if I replace my hardware or controller in RT system.Always I can not find my hardware in MAX. So I must refresh in MAX continuously until I can find.

    s_yy,
    Is the problem that you cannot find the hardware in MAX at all or that it requires refreshing for it to appear? 
    When you change/replace the hardware in your RT PXI system, you have to refresh the view in MAX in order for it to detect the changes - this will not occur automatically. You can refresh all items in MAX (View > Refresh) or you can refresh each item individually when it is selected. Keep in mind it may take some time for the hardware to initialize before you can detect it in MAX.

  • Why can i not find my own private credentials

              hello,
              I have written an authenticator using the JAAS framework as described in the manuals
              for developing a security provider.
              Basically the user types in a username and a password.
              I come into the login module,
              store the username into a WLSUserImpl principal,then add the principal to the
              subject.
              Then i create a javax.resource.spi.PasswordCredential with a username and a password
              and pass this to the privateCredentialSet of the Subject.
              So far so good.
              Next , some time later , i access an ejb, which needs the service of a connector.
              Before i come into the connector , weblogic passes via my own credential mapper
              also written according to manual for developing security providers.
              Essentially i don't need the credential mapping , since i know this password already
              when i did the authentication(the password for authentication is the same as the
              password
              needed for the JCA connector).
              I come into the credential mapper and weblogic gives me a requestor and an initiator
              subject
              but none of them carry my private credentials which i stored into the subject
              when i was in
              the authentication module.
              In the credentialmapper i am supposed to create a PasswordCredential.
              For the sake of testing i create phony PasswordCredential with a phony user and
              phony password.
              Finallly i come into the connector
              which has a method createmanagedConnection and which passes a subject and a requestinfo
              and a managedconnection factory.
              The suject that i receive is a resource principal with a private credential carrying
              the phony user
              and password.
              Of couse i need the user and password entered during authentication,
              how do get them???
              Also i noticed when i configured my credential mapper,
              that weblogic calls the getCredentials method twice in succession,
              I don't understand why two calls is neccessary
              Many thanks

  • Why can I not find my music that I download from the iTunes Store or that was ripped from a cd in my library

    I have bought several music from iTunes and now I cannot find them in my library.  The same goes for music that I have ripped from my cds.  What gives?!  Why doesn't the music stay in the iTunes library like it does in Windows Media.  There is music that I cannot get again and this is not acceptable.

    Your iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time.  If you try connecting the iPod to a new iTunes library or PC, you won't be able to add any new content to it until you choose the Erase and Sync option that you are prompted with when you plug it in or restore the iPod if that option doesn't appear.
    If you have content on your iPod that needs to be copied back over to your iPod, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different ways to you can recover these contents and moved them back over to your iTunes library.

  • Why can I not find the Rubber Stamp icon in Fireworks 8

    Using Fireworks 8:
    ok - fairly new to all this - but I am trying to clone pixels and am looking for the rubber stamp icon.  My "Bitmap" menu has marquee, lasso, magic wand, brush, pencil, eraser, burn & red eye icons on it, and under "Assets" (under Image Editing tab) in the other toolbar I have red eye, crop, scale, blur, sharpen, dodge and burn icons. No rubber stamp icon to be found.  I am trying to edit a .jpg file (photo).  I have read that it only works on bitmap files so I have saved it as a .bmp but still no luck finding the rubber stamp icon.  Where am I going wrong please?!
    Many thanks

    Panic not... it has only taken me all afternoon but there must have been a error as I have just reloaded the app and holding the mouse button down now produces a menu of options on the bitmap menu, so the user can toggles from one to the other.

  • What does this error mean and why can I not find a reference to it ?

    In my continuing saga to get the type of backups I want our new Basis
    Admin had me use the brarchive option -ds  to brbackup
    brbackup -u / -p init$.sap -t online -m full -c -a -ds
    the brarchive option being -ds
    when the above was executed it gave the error
    BR0197E Chained start not supported for '-ds'
    I can find no reference to BR0197E anywhere
    -pete

    Hi,
    Found it as an "Info" message, not "Error". But it seems your case:
    <i>BR197I Chained start not supported for '%s'
    Explanation: A BRBACKUP and BRARCHIVE backup in a single run is not supported for all combinations of parameters or options (for example, not for backups to disk with backup_dev_type = disk ).
    Program response: The BRBACKUP/BRARCHIVE run terminates.
    User action: Do not use the parameter or option in the message for the chained start.</i>

  • Why can I not find files created with x-rite software in color sync folder?

    Creating printing profiles for different papers.They are being stored in a hidden folder. Why?

    I can only find two library folders out of the three that you are speaking of. It is my understanding that in 10.7 and 10.8 they changed where and access to certian files.
    I'm just really stumped why it would hide files that are being used by more than application when I can put downloaded images in colorsync folder and they are fine.
    Thank you for your help and suggestions
