Apple has now rolled the 10.7.5 and 10.8.2 Supplemental Updates into the default 10.7.5 and 10.8.2 App downloads available in the Mac App Store.

Does this change the installing process with uni-Beast?

How are you getting Lion 10.7.5 from the app store? Pretty sure they removed it, no?

No. Everything is exactly the same with the slightly updated versions.

How are you getting Lion 10.7.5 from the app store? Pretty sure they removed it, no?

Yes, they've removed 10.7 Lion from the 10.8 Mountain Lion Mac App Store, because you can't go backwards.

However, if you're on 10.6 Snow Leopard or 10.7 Lion, you still have the option to use Lion, so you can download the Install OS X Lion 10.7 App installer.

Weird I am on Lion 10.7.5 and Lion doesn't even show up in my App Store or list of Purchases. Got a link?


This says they've removed it.

Hmm I think I can still get it if I option click on Purchases. Gonna try that now.

It's under Purchases in the Mac App Store. You can't get to the link from Mtn Lion unless you've purchased Lion previously. Hence if you went from 10.6 Snow Leopard > 10.8 Mtn Lion you can't go to 10.7 Lion, or purchase it- this is what happens:



EDIT: I just tried from 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, and 10.7 Lion is not available there either unless you've previously purchased it. It's Mountain Lion or nothing- but that is a good thing! Mountain Lion is OS X.

I think I need to delete the Install Lion OS X.app first and option click. Just found your instructions. Gonna see if that works. I def went from SL to Lion and then Lion to Mt. Lion.

EDIT..

Hmm, I can't get to it even by Option Clicking on the App Store then Option Clicking on Purchases even after deleting the Install Mac OS X Lion.app

Color me confused. Would love to update my stick with a 10.7.5 installer.

Go to the MAS using the App Store app. Option-Click on Purchases at the top of the App Store window. You will now see all your purchases, and they're available for re-downloading. Have at it!

This is what I get after running the Mac App Store with Option held down and opening Purchases with Option held down. I bought Lion the day it came out in 2011.

I am currently running 10.7.5 in a 2011 iMac.

I am still unable to see 10.7.5 on ANY Mac I try this trick on.
