Why does Lion OS appears as available to download in app store and is already installed in my computer?

I checked the software status and says 10.7.3
Eventhough in the app store appears as available to "download".
Should I dowload it again?
Thanks...

Fair enough...I just like backup copies of things
The latest release is 10.7.3 so you do not need to download and install anything.  Is the app store telling you other apps need to be updated?  Garageband and iTunes, for instance?
There have been some users seeing glitches in the app store recently saying to download what was already downloaded.  I would just update any apps it offers at this point.

    why does gardens of time not allow feedback in the app store

    Apple saw it as their responsibility since the redirection took me to the App Store. They assisted me in stopping the redirection which is occurring on many peoples iPhones. It's a have java script problem that adking is using to get you to buy their games. The websites work normal and then all of the sudden the website is taken over by adking.com.  You can no longer use the website as it immediately takes you to the App Store without ever showing a popup to cancel the redirection. They were very helpful fixing the problem should others experiencing this specifically with adking.com.
    No need to get defensive. I'm not the only one experiencing the problem Apple said.

  • Does Photoshop Elements 12 editor on mac downloaded from app store work ok with retina display??

    Hi.
        I was wondering if any has purchased photoshop elements 12 editor via the app store for a mac and does it have the function to display it properly for a retina display screen. I have lightroom which works a treat as it has ability to work with this screen. I see on the adobe website that their version of elements 12 does not support retina display. Before i buy this product i would like to know if it works properly otherwise it will be a waste of money. I also have elements 11 via adobe themselves which i can use but the text does not look sharp, as it does't support retina display. Cheers

    Hi Barbara I´ve done what you suggested and I´m having the same problem. Its freezed. Is there any way I can download the update? I´m
    stuck with a Photoshop that doesnt work. Adobe says that they cant help without a serial number and apple doesnt let me update. This is the most bizarre I have lived in terms of software.

  • Does anyone know how to open file '.balance' which made from 'Balance' app that I downloaded from App Store and now it's discontinue?

    I have my expense file which made by 'Balance' app. Now I cannot find the app in App Store and cannot open the file.
    If anyone has a way to open the file, please share.

    I thought only IOS app is back up to iTunes. Mac apps are not, am I right?
    I can't find the app anywhere in my system and all the Mac app download websites.
    I really need the data in the file.
    I'm not sure if any other apps can open '.balance' file extension.
    I'm confused. I thought you were talking about this Balance - it is an iOS-only app. If you are talking about some other app, then you will have to look on your Time Machine backup.
    I am quite certain that only that app will be able to open the data.

  • Why does everyone else on their school ipad have access to the App Store and basically anything they want? Why is it that I don't have access to any of that?  How do I get access to that stuff?

    Ok I don't know why in the world everyone else has access to the App Store and almost anything they want. Guess what I have access to? Yea that's right I have access to nothing that they have! I believe that their iPads are glitching and that might be how they got access to them! I hate how I don't have any access when I don't have access to anything that they have access to! They have almost no restrictions on their iPads and I have all the restrictions that the school sets!

    I don't know if you're looking for us to offer a solution to you?  We can't.  If your school has set restrictions on your iPad, you need to discuss this with your school system admin.

  • HT204406 I have subscribed to match on iTunes and organized my music on my Mac Book.  Why does it not appear the same way on my iPad

    I would like my music to appear organized in the same way on my iPad as I have done it on my Mac Book.  (and on my iPhone as well)  Since it is in the cloud, why does it not appear the same way in all devices?

    The purpose of iTunes match is to make your music library available to all of your devices anywhere. It will sync Playlists, but no other type of organization you may have made.
    If you're having trouble, be sure you are logged into the same Apple ID on all devices but be sure to read this article and pay special attention to associating your devices with an Apple ID. There are important restrictions you should know about.

  • Why does 'Guest User' appear in a foreign language when logged in as guest?

    Why does 'Guest User' appear in a foreign language when logged in as guest? It's not a major problem but it would be nice to be able to fix it, and to understand how it happened.
    Everything else is in English (or set to English) as far as I can see, and my Macbook is only a couple of weeks old. All system updates have been performed and permissions have been repaired.
    It displays it in Finnish (Suomi) as 'Vierastilin käyttäjä' only when logged in, in the System Preferencess user list and apple menu (where you would normally select 'Log Out Guest User'). I cant find anyone else with the same problem online. I am in the UK, purchased the Macbook on the UK Apple Store online, and I have never been to Finland or selected anything to do with Finland or its language. Everything else is in English.
    I should add that 'Vierastilin' showed up instead of 'Guest User' on the OSX login screen on the first day I had the Macbook, but this seemed to fix itself somehow soon after.
    A couple of photos to illustrate the problem that still exists are attached.

    Thanks for the reply. I only have English - Primary but I guess I could add Finland and then delete it...
    Okay, tried that, lots of variations including deleting all other languages and only using Finnish, and then using only British English etc - when guest is in Finnish the whole lot becomes Finnish/Suomi (see attached photos to compare with the ones above) - then when you delete Finnish and go back to English, everything is Englisg apart from 'Vierastilin käyttäjä' as above.
    Any other ideas where it stores that info - is there a dodgy preference file somewhere which needs zapping?

  • Why does my iMac appear many times in my network and labelled 1,2,3, etc

    why does my iMac appear many times in my network and labelled 1,2,3, etc

    Ok, I solved it.
    I followed this steps:
    1- Turn Off Wi-Fi from the Wireless menu item
    2- From the OS X Finder, hit Command+Shift+G and enter the following path:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/
    3- Within this folder locate and select the following files:
    com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
    
com.apple.network.identification.plist
    com.apple.wifi.message-tracer.plist

    NetworkInterfaces.plist

    preferences.plist
    4- Move all of these files into a folder on your Desktop called ‘wifi backups’ or something similar – we’re backing these up just in case you break something but if you regularly backup your Mac you can just delete the files instead since you could restore from Time Machine if needed.
    5- Reboot the Mac
    6- Turn ON WI-Fi from the wireless network menu again

    The camera icon appears so that you can take a picture quickly without having to enter your password.  It is not responsible for the shutter sound.  The Touch always made that sound when manually closing or going to sleep even with older iOS that did not have the camera icon.

    Why does my contacts appear as unknown when receiving calls

    Anytime you have photos in the Camera Roll album on your iPad your computing assumes you will want to copy them. If you don't want to copy those photos then just quit Image Capture or whatever other program starts when you connect. Then start iTunes and go from there.

    Why does Lion KEEP reversing changes you make in address book and other applications without your consent and without wanting it to??? Plus address book will NOT import old address book contacts from Snow Lepoard 10.6 and keep them.  This Lion OXS 7 is .. becoming very frustrating ... it will NOT keep changes made in the Address Book and it has destroyed my contacts which I only have electronically since 10.4 in my address book. I am NOT happy with this OS7 it has a lot of issues and faults.  How can one stop automatic reversing of data when inputting???
    Please help! 
    Wished I NEVER upgraded to this Lion!!!
    Carmelo

    Relax. Your address book database is corrupted.
    If you are syncing your Contacts with MobileMe or something else, disable it for now.
    Backup your address book by going to File>Export>Address Book Archive.
    Quit Address Book.
    Open your Library by holding down the Option (alt) key while selecting the Go menu in Finder. Select Library. Navigate into your Application Support/AddressBook folder and delete the addressbook-v22.abcddb file.
    Open Address Book. It will recreate the database from the raw data.
    See how that works. If it is ok, then reenable syncing and see how that works.
