Still have my White late 2007 MB. Wish I could put 10.9 on it, but I've kept 10.6.8 on it, which still rocks and was considered the best build for a while.
Does everyone remember that Psystar was sued by Apple for selling computers with Leopard installed. Since OSX Maverick is free, can new companies start building and selling their own hackintoshes? If I remember correctly the issue was that Psystar violated end-user license agreement for OSX, but if it is a free OSX is that still a valid issue?
I get still offering Snow Leopard and Lion, but Mountain Lion and Mavericks share the same system requirements.
There's no reason I can think of to run (let alone spend time and money installing) Mountain Lion, now that Mavericks is out...not to mention FREE.

Yes. In fact, there are a few models (Mid 2007 iMac, etc) that originally shipped with 10.4!
Half-baked Lions are tasty.If my computer could not run Mountain Lion or later, I'd definitely take Snow Leopard over the half-baked Lion.
That's wrong. See below:"Customers who have previously purchased Lion or Mountain Lion can download the operating systems through the "Purchases" tab of the Mac App Store."
Not true... Mountain Lion is not available. Lion is Available.
That's wrong. See below:

The calendar. It actually looks much nicer now.
Hi Everyone, Is it just me? After reading that Apple will let people who have previously Purchased theses Systems ReDownload them by clicking the purchases section of Mac App Store. I have purchased BOTH of the Systems, But when I select download I get an error " There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (13) " I have tried deleting the Mac App Store Caches.db file & com.apple.appstore.plist files, But still get error.. Is it because I live in UK?
Yesterday I didn't try but today I clicked continue in stead of cancel to test this and Mountain Lion has now downloaded.No it's not wrong. If you already have upgraded to 10.9 it will not let you download 10.8. At least it didn't for me, even though the download was for a different computer.
Hello,
I don't find this option on the Belgian Apple Store.
Is this only an option for US citizens?
Cheers
Tom
They do sell Snow Leopard actually:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
If you ordered from this link http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion you ordered a code for Map App store download which you should have received in an email. So, this means you need to be running snow leopard 10.6.6 or later, otherwise you do not have the Mac App store which is needed for Lion.OK, so I just bought Lion from Apple's online store: the website, not the app.
I have a white plas- .... uh, polycarbonate MacBook I bought new in June 2008 from the cube store here on 5th Avenue.
So what happens now?
Will I get a DVD or a datastick in the mail?
Or will I get emailed a download code?
And if it's the code, just where, exactly, will I be downloading from?
Thank ye!
But during the keynote I thought they said people running older versions don't have to buy all the other versions to upgrade and can go directly to Mavericks. Why not just do that instead of misleading customers?![]()
That's wrong. See below:
Question: which Mac OS X are you running on your '08 MacBook?
And what is the final Mac OS X you want to run on this,
Lion, or are you trying to get a way to Mavericks?
I'm in 10.6.8 App Store now, click on "featured" there should be a Quick Link box on right with Redeem there.10.6.8
No, Lion's fine.
The latest version I can get possible is what I'm after.
I got the download code in an email, like you say.
I just don't know what to do with it! lol
In the Mac App Store > PURCHASES, my Lion purchase isn't listed.
And there doesn't seem to be a REDEEM section, either.
Please help!
