Mac Os App Store Download Location
Are you talking about the Mac App Store or the iTunes App Store?
The files are downloaded to
/Users/<USERNAME>/Library/Awarding Support/AppStore/
and in one case complete moved to
/Applications/
I know this is a (slightly) old thread, but since it's relevant...
How does 1 change where the files are downloaded to initially? I boot from an SSD and I exercise not accept space space to waste on downloads similar this nor practise I capeesh the vesture and tear exacted on the SSD's retention cells for this process.
I'one thousand getting sick and tired of Apple taking more than and more command away from the user at the user's expense.
/Users/<USERNAME>/Library/Application Support/AppStore
There volition exist another directory seemingly random number, in my case: 444303913
in there will be a *pkg and some other files... (mine is still downloading)
morpheus:AppStore <USERNAME>$ ls -lR 444303913/

Lion download
The download goes in the Awarding folder, and automatically opens. Once finished updating it automatically deletes itself!
I redownloaded (press on the Choice/Alt key while clicking on Install in the App store). When downloaded (once more!) ignore the Installer screen and the "continue" button, and copy it to a USB key. I tried moving information technology to another folder, but it would non motility, even after quitting the installer, just if you move information technology to Trash, you can then remove information technology from Trash to another folder.

I was wondering if everyone could tell me how they did the "morpheus" stuff. I looked all over the internet with no luck...

"morpheus" is the proper name of crashidioteque's organisation. "SharedSupport" is the electric current directory and "root" is the current user. The control is what is following the #.
The kickoff control is "pwd", the output is on the side by side line and is the working directory.
The 2nd control is "ls -l" and is outputting the contents of the directory in a long format.
Hope that helps.
Delight could yous give an idiots guide to the last step, to copy the backup to another mac.
TIA
Many Thanks.
Copy to Ext Drive
You lot can play with cpio if you want to, but you tin can also simply copy the "Install Mac Os 10 Panthera leo.app" to an another *bulldoze* (not folder on the same drive), and the package (with contents) will be copied. The re-create is (equally far as I can tell) intact ("prove Package contents" is identical on the original [in /Applications] and copied . I have not verified that it is functional, though... (I need more than time to practise the install and piece of work beckons).
Panthera leo already installed just at present decadent difficult drive
Hi everyone,
I have looked through everything on this message thread and effectually on the internet. I establish out that I don't accept the Lion installation source on my drive since I have already installed information technology (I did not make a copy of the installation earlier the install as I did this last weekend).
At present I am having some difficult bulldoze troubles and I would like to recover everything, just that I don't have a good starting point. The AppStore tells me that Lion is already installed and won't let me download it again, since it is already installed and now I have to rebuild this system, is there a style to start out by re-installing Lion only on a new hard drive (I would like to just take this drive out and store it safely).
Is in that location a mode to download the Lion installer or do I have to beginning over, booting so installing from the media that came with my MacBook Pro, then re-purchase Panthera leo because of my disk issue?
I am not certain about time machine at this signal, would it have the blended of x.six with the Lion updates that I took last calendar week before this mess started? It would make things easier to recover, but for the future I would all the same similar a clean starting point with ten.7 now if possible.
Any thoughts/comments are welcome and many thanks in accelerate for your assistance

Hold Pick while selecting Mac LION icon in appstore. keep holding while clicking on the install push.
