.Neo Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 You can download the apps through the App Store. iUserX 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConAmor Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 It's asking me to pay for them but I have found that on Apple forums. If you reinstall Lion on a new Mac that shipped with OS X Lion installed, on an erased or replaced hard drive, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store. After installation, start from Lion. Double-click the App Store icon in the dock. Enter your Apple ID and password. Click Purchases. If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept. You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your Lion based computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to compete installation of your applications. That should do the trick! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skulltrail Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I had the three-beep of death for the longest time as I tried to downgrade from Lion to Snow Leopard. Apparently Apple has hardcoded that error so that you can't downgrade. I ended up reinstalling Lion. The only other option is upgrading to Mountain Lion.

I doubt this, I had no trouble booting into Lion and installing Snow Leopard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Co-ords Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Not sure if it's been mentionedin here, but there is a good tool for making a bootable Lion or Mountain Lion CD or USB stick... Go here http://blog.gete.net/lion-diskmaker-us/ It works great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperKid Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 The disk utility won't work for me, I press erase option and it does nothing on the restore, I also formatted the USB drive completely, tried copying the .dmg file out of the application to the desktop. When I press Restore then Erase it does nothing!! :( Looks like I'll give that tool a try ^ edit: Actually turns out I set the destination as the install dmg file and the source the usb haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PGHammer Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Anyone know if I got the DMG file on my PC how to burn it on a disc? I think I have been stupid when installing my new HDD. Actually, if you install TransMac, you can burn the DVD on any Windows PC (that is, after all, what TransMac is for - accessing normally-incompatible Mac file formats on Windows PCs).

PGHammer Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 In the 1,5 years since I posted above reply I've found a solution and already forgot it again. Thanks anyway for the suggestion! My first exposure to TransMac goes back to my early days of Mac emulation - specifically, Basilisk II; with MacOS 7.5.x or even OS 8 (the first version of MacOS to support DHCP). Because I also support real Macs (of both the PPC and Intel sorts), TransMac is still a nice utility to have at the ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGHammer Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Yes - works for Lion and later. (In fact, it works for anything you purchase via the App Stores or iTunes - even those items with a price of $0.00.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
