Hi, I built my Hakintosh with iBoot + OS X Snow Leopard Retail DVD this week. After that, I installed the 10.6.8 combo update. It works fine! Thanks to TonyMacX86!

However, I need to run an app which only runs on OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.5. I understand I could get the latest OS X, 10.11 El Capitan, from Mac App Store, and upgrade to OS X El Capitan quite easily. But OS X Mountain Lion is not available for download any more.

My question is: how can I get OS X Mountain lion app so that I can create a install USB with Unibeat?

Thanks a lot!

Just a note, when you order online Apple doesn't give you immediate access to the download. They make you wait 1-2 days, process your order, then send an email with the info and the code you'll need. Not sure why they do this. It's frustrating though.
 
Thank you both for your replies!
After reading your posts, now I remember i saw these before. It's weird I couldn't find this link when I did my search on the forum.

Thank you!
