[QUOTE="trinalankford, post: 1522198, member: 304860"] I am only upgrading to Mountain Lion because I recently upgraded to Adobe Creative Cloud (and ONLY for LightRoom 5....grrr...but that's a whole other story), and I just found out that LR5 is not even compatible with 10.6 :Angry-Tongue: So.....for LR5 to even download (won't even let me download it, nevertheless install it, until I have 10.7 or 10.8), I need to upgrade. I've purchased the upgrade from the App store and started the download....and then saw the size of 4.4 GB. :P I have EXTREMELY poor internet service here. I have satellite, and they limit me to 250MB per DAY. Obviously that wasn't going to work. I disconnected my satellite internet and opened the HotSpot on my phone and am connected that way (my only other option). It has been going for about 90 minutes thus far, and I have 158 MB of 4.44 GB downloaded. It says there is anywhere from 1 day 3 hours to 21 days 5 hours left!!!!!!!!! Is there not another way for me to get this upgrade? I don't live anywhere near an Apple store, but I don't see where you can purchase an actual CD of it. Ugh! Help! [/QUOTE]
